The Elite forces of Guitar 1 comprises of
Section Leader
Jun Kit (Chair person)
A. Section Leader
Rebecca
Members
Dody (Section B Leader)
Kumar (Student Council)
Eric

They played: Concerto [Guitar 1]
Bridge Over Troubled Waters [Guitar 1]

Throughout all this while, for concerto, they had one of the 2 hardest parts. For the memorable bar 26 that they themselves claimed they screwed up, they had undergone numerous immense trainings and practices. However, under SYF condition, nobody can blame them for not playing to perfection, because the stress level is very high. Furthermore, seriously, I did not hear their mistake at all. Perhaps other guitar parts, that were suppose to be resting covered for them? How is that possible? Asked a friend from TPJC Guitar, he said he thought we played terrific. Guess only those whom have heard the songs plentiful of times can pinpoint the mistake.

It's a pity though, that Guitar 1 could not execute their lovely bar 26. They could do it. They have done it before. Nevertheless, the eoffort they put in, the extra sectionals they called just for bar 26, shown that they put in their utmost effort. Guitar 1 definitely houses some of the best guitarists within the ensemble. Let's applaud them for all that they had done.

The key player of Guitar 1 or rather, the key player of the Ensemble. He's also known as the president of Guitar Ensmble of Meridian, presenting to you yours truly,

Lee Jun Kit!

Hey! Throughout all those times of leading guitar ensemble, I must say that you have done a real excellent job! I suppose few would disagree with this comment! Under your brillant leadership and guidance, guitar ensemble have reached higher ground and scaled greater heights. Afterall, we claimed the GOLD! Very calm at all times, well, perhaps he knows his guitar inside out, and also knows what he's doing. Good photographer as well as website designer? Haha, make it good artist for photoshop ba! Bonded the comm. together which in turn helped in bonding the whole Ensemble!

Extremely enthusiastic when it comes to matters related to guitar, for example, not wanting to step down after syf! Haha! Played the guitar with style! Haha! Obviously, I was always looking at your fingerings when you were playing! Haha! Cool xia! Sometimes you must video yourself man! The way your fingers moved.. Simply awesome! Definitely a role model for others to follow! It doesn't matter if you screwed up bar 26 or played it with perfection, a smile will always flash on your face, if not to the audience or the ensemble, it is to Rebecca!

Next up, we have the petite and experienced Rebecca. Perhaps participating in SYF before did help. There was not a single tinge of panic in your eyes before SYF. Behind every successful man there lies a women. Beside our very own successful president, sat a very talented women! There must be a reason why Jun Kit kept smiling towards you when he plays. You must have been his pillar of support! Well, at least, supporting him when he messed up and thus the song could be continued.

Rebecca have a very unique character that makes everybody feel comfortable while having conversations. Furthermore, she's a CLA expert, a rare gem in GEM! Soft spoken but voices out her opinions. Always wearing a smile on her face. Yup, definitely one of the finest guitarists in the family.

Dody! Certainly the most improved player in Guitar 1! 3 Cheers! A gentleman! A great section leader whom also helped out with the duties of a quarter master. Responsible lad and quite handsome too! Just look at him! A serious guitarist whom improved tremendously! Still remember the times when he was deciding whether he wants to join Guitar 1 or Guitar 5! I'm sure you did not regret joining the marvellous family of Guitar 1!

Dody's a nice fella to chat with. He gives his frank opinion about anything and everything, without making it sound blunt. A great fact is that this guy lives in Kembangan and therefore have the opportunity to continue meeting each other on the way to school! Cheers!

Kumar! It's always nice to have a councillor in guitar. Loaning of clothes cover had never been easier. Having already known how to play guitar definitely helped this busy guy master vivaldi and bridge despite his council commitment. Even though he got into council, he had never given up on Guitar! His enthusism is reflected on the nice melodies he produced together with his beloved family of Guitar 1!

Being a council, his responsibility are huge. However, he had never shown us the stress and tiredness. In guitar, he takes a serious approach most of the times, however, there were definitely times of lameness. But hey! He's the only non Chinese that committed to us and never gave up! 3 cheers for Kumar!

Finally, it's Eric! Blame him on not joining Guitar during his first 3 months! Boo! Nevertheless, he's an asset to guitar ensemble. Was he? Kidding! His grade 6 (whatever) on piano allowed him to side read and thus made his life in guitar much easier. Of course, knowing Jun Kit, Jun Yi, Cheryl and I helped him to get much closer to guitar. This was despite the fact that he was already on close terms with Jia Wei, and Jonathan!

Anyway, an enthusiastic fella and a nice chap! Oh ya, when should we go kayak again? K box? Whatever! And ya, I suppose by this time, you could stop asking me to stay back in school to mug with you people, as unlike you who stay in Pasir Ris, I just so happen to stay in Paya Lebar! Boo!
