Reflective Essay

I joined Guzheng ensemble when i was in Year 1 of Junior College. I chose this CCA because i wanted to try something new and different. After a journey of two years in Guzheng ensemble, what i have learnt is much greater than what i have expected. It was all about team work and numerous practices that leads to a good performance. I was not a very good player in Guzheng due to my lack of music background. Yet, i did not attend every session of my CCA. JC workload was too much for me and i spent my time on studying instead of going CCA when i was supposed to go. Even when performance was around the corner, i still did not go for practices every week. It turned out that sometimes i have to "fake play" in the performance. Though the overall performance was still excellent, i did not sense the joy as much as the rest did. Only after i finished my Alevel, i then realized how much CCA has actually benefited me. From then onward, i try my best in everything i do and leave no regret. I understand that everything we do will benefit us in a certain way, and most of the time we are unable to see the benefit. If i spend more time and efforts in the CCA, i believe that i could have gained much more.
