NOTICE

Hi Fellow CO mates,

There are some issues that i need to bring forth attention to all of you. As we know, exams and debarring period is here, i understand that there are quite a number of you have gotten warning letters despite submitting all your excuse letters up.

I urge everyone to contact your PEM(personal mentor) who should be able to assist you. By right, the AIMF trip and other mayflower perfomance, and auditiorium performance should not affect your attendance because they are all valid reasons. Therefore, please double check clearly to ensure that none of you are in the debarment list.

If there are anymore of you who needs the approval letter that indicate you have been approved of going for AIMF, please msn me or call me. I will forward them in to your mails.

Thanks!
Joanne

Through these months

To all AIMF/ CO members,

希望大家，不要因为昨天的一番话，而感到灰心，或者是失去动力。那些话，不是用来让大家灰心，而是要大家更团结在一起。这样我们才能很骄傲的跟大家说，我们是南洋理工华乐团。

大家，经过那么多事，从一开始，没人能给我明确的答案说他到底能参加这次的比赛，到人太多了，必须淘汰人，一直到现在，多十天我们就离开新加坡，出国比赛争取我们的目标。 一路走来，大家都很辛苦,很累。 这中间包括了种种的困难，挣扎。有的，一早本来就不想参加比赛，大家，担心学业，经济方面的问题等等。喜怒哀乐都尝过了，但是我们还是熬过来了。

静下来想想，我们都来到了这个阶段了。大家务必要更努力，加油做好我们的本分，这样大家才对得起自己。就是这一句话‘到底对得起自己吗”？


我不知道身为副团长的我还能为大家多做些什么，但是我知道，我也背负着大家对海之随想的感觉，的期望。所以，我只能说，我会努力，希望你们也不会放弃。 我也希望我不会辜负大家所对我的期望，所对我的信心。

为了这次，就那么一次，我们就豁出去吧。！！！大家加油加油再加油！！

悉尼见了=)
