Okay, I think this blog is long forgotten by most of us. So, let me get the ball rolling alright?
This video had been shown to you guys on one of the practice by Shawn. There is actually a message behind it if you really don’t get what it means. Kiwi! is an animation about a Kiwi – a type of bird that cannot fly, who spends its whole life working towards achieving his dream. The kiwi strived to create the illusion that it was flying over a forest as it soared down through the sky from the top of a cliff. Thus, the kiwi spent what must have been its whole life nailing trees to the side of a cliff. All this, to fulfil its one dream of flying, even though it was technically unable to. There are several powerful messages behind Kiwi, but mainly, it makes you think: no matter how absurd and seemingly out of reach your dreams are, what’s stopping you from achieving them?
This shows that nothing is impossible. If you are willing to do it, you can do it. Don’t give up easily as all of you are in this together. Although the graduating members and alumnus are away, we’ll still be giving you our moral support. Whenever you think of giving up, always remember this video, and always tell yourself YOU CAN DO IT! You must believe in yourself becos I Believe, Therefore I Am!
*If you have anything to tell the band or to motivate them, you can comment it under Encouragement (: Keep the comments coming in!
