Perak State Marching Band Competition 2008
The Perak State Marching Band of 2008 held on 20th June at Stadium Perak. It was a superb wonderful night for every AMC Marching Band member. There was 6 teams from SMK Ave Maria Convent, SMK Sam Tet, SMK San Min, SMK Perempuan Perak, SMk Methodist and SMK Nan Hwa. We were the first team on that night. And our show begun. We heated up the whole stadium and the audience. Everybody screamed for us. It made us move forward. The 10+ minutes was really short for us. We really hope our show will never end. Lastly, it was the glory moment. A splendid march out done.Everyone of us shone on the field. Especially our beloved drum major Lau Kar Mun and conductor Fiona. You two really pretty at the night as teacher said. We proud of you. And so do the two new little conductors. Well done.
Congratulation to everyone of AMC Marching Band who work hard for the competition. Although we just got the second place, but it made sense. In our heart, we are already the winners for ourselves.

Merdeka 9days' KL Trip
We brought back memories from the 9 days staying at KL for the merdeka marching parade that on 31st August. It wa a long but yet short journey for us. Still remember when the first moment reaching the Kompleks Sukan Cochraine, the just okay okay condition of the rooms, toilets and so on made us so wanted to go home. But after few days staying there, and meeting new friends from CH Miri and Lok Yuk band, it's worth it. And very luckily, we had chance to go visiting at the Sunway Pyramid and the Sunway University College. That's the only day we spent outside besides rehersal at dataran merdeka.
Here, i would like to share something regarding our rehersal and practice. Firstly, we woke up very early in the morning for the rehersal session at dataran merdeka. We reached there very early, so we just simply sleep besides waiting at the roadside. What a unique experience for us. And of course we had practices for better performance on the merdeka day. Although every single rehersal and practice was tiring and exhausting, we finally did the best on the big day and made ourselves proud. Congratulation for winning Champion of the merdeka maching parade. It was a great opportunity to involve and improve ourselves. And last but not least, thanks everyone who work hard to attain the trip especially teacher advisors who take good care and guide us.
That's conclude the big events on 2008.
