MY CONDOLESCENCES TO MR CEASAR(my band coach).

What happened: He died on monday in his sleep due to heart attack. what will happen to his kids? they are still very young. heard that they are still in primary school.

What happened today: Mr Singh made an announcement, requesting all the school band memebers to stay back for a while after assembly. Well, we gathered around Ms Zhou.Then she asked us to proceed to the conference room. In my heart, i'm wondering if what Rachel had said the day before about Mr Ceasar death is true. Well, it turned out to be so. In the conference room, all the year 2 and 3 students sat around the table, year 1 at the side. When they announced it, many break down and cry. As for me, it still haven't sink into me yet. Well, after that, Rachel, Amanda and i was walking along the auditorium. At that time, i was already crying. Mr Raj saw us and asked us to sit down and he talked to us. He is very caring cause he sort of counsel us and all. but well, he talks about his mom and dad death and thus, i felt even more upset and all. anyway, teachers are great. they cared.

What i really want to say about Mr Ceasar: Firstly, he is a man who really cared about the wellbeing of us and every individual students that is placed under him. For me, he taught me many things that i would never have learnt in my life. He taught me many musical stuffs. Once, during one of the practice, many didn't turn up. so there's only 3 of us. He talked about his life and all. and well, i really really am very sad to hear that he is no longer with us. He even taught me how to hear key and all that day. He asked about what i want to do or achieve in the area of music.So i told him. and he said that he would teach me about vocals. but i guess it will never happen right now. Besides this, he is a man who is patient. Whenever he asked me to go home and learn a new chord, 90% of the time i would not do that. and whenever he asked me to play and i dont know, he would always say check the book and slowly learn and all. he would not scold me and everything. One of the things that he did that really impacted my life is that he strongly believed in me. Even if my dad and my sis or the people around me think that i can't, he will always think that i can and encourage me. He is like my music mentor. A man whom i trust.


A poem by me about my feelings and thoughts of Mr Ceasar's death.
I've been sitting here
Can't get you off my mind
I tried to get a hold of myself and be strong
I drove myself insane
Wishing i could say the last goodbye
but the truth remains that you are gone.

I dont want to make excuses
Life still goes on
But if there's something i can do
To show how much i appreciate you, i would
The time is passing so slowly now
Guess thats how it will be
And soon my life would be changed
But thats not what i want

Right now, im just hanging around
Finding things to do
To take my mind off thinking about you
And i know in my heart
It is a tough thing to do

No matter how hard i tried
I can't seem to forget
All the things that you have done for me
Disappointed, guilt
I do not know what i can do
I have not got the chance to say "thank you"

No matter how hard i try
The truth remains that you are gone.
