Pra[i]se the LORD!!
"I will praise God's name in song
and glorify him with thanksgiving."
What a feeling! Even though I did not sing in the choir, I still felt like I was a part of it, so it was an amazing feeling to see GOLD again, after the disappointment at Bremen. It was wonderful to see that the hard work of my juniors paying off. I'm sure there are some who feel disappointed that we did not get honors. But it's okay. They did their best, and that's what counts, isn't it? Blameless, not faultless. =)
To the year twos, it is time to start studying! But that does not mean you should stop singing either! Study hard, but sing hard as well. I don't think I have ever left the choir, even during the A level examinations themselves. So do go back to sing often, it is a refreshing way to relax after studying for long periods of time. And, join the alumni! Come back for carolling! We [the alumni] needs you! I've asked Miss Lim about next year's overseas trip and she said she "is planning" so yea! Hee~
To the year ones, even though I don't know most of you yet, I intend to. When the year twos are gone then perhaps I will have more opportunity to interact with you people. Continue singing hard, work for next year's competition! And do run for committee! Spread the infectious joy of of choral singing! =)
I seem to be using a lot of exclamation marks. Lol.
I am beginning to miss my CG a alot. All those practices at HCJC, where I would point and say "Oh we used to have CG there," or "Oh, this was where I was HS baptised." It's just so... sigh. Cannot say. Some things can be public, some are private, others can be shared with few. I'm just too lazy to update another private blog.
Everyone was super 'high' after SYF. Sang old songs on the bus. Then sang a lot of a capella with the guys. Everyone just freely harmonized, it was quite fun. We are just so talented la, anyhow sing also can sound good. Haha. More singing while waiting for people to get changed or gather. "Longest Time", "I Can See Clearly Now", "Ice Kachang", "Smooth Criminal", "Yesterday", "How Deep Is Your Love", and a lot more others. Haha rocks. Benghee go arrange stuff! =)
Went to Marche. Timmo Nat and Sher came to join us. Didn't eat much, except for that root beer and 1/3 of Jie's rosti. Wasn't hungry, and by that time the 'high-ness' was gone and there was this stupid headache so I was just zoning out. Bah. Left quite early, together with Jie. Treated her to soya bean, apparently because I 'betrayed' her. LOL! Jie! Don't cut you hair if not will look like tweety again!! Haha..
It was nice to see Timmo and Nat come back to choir at the end. Timmo is just like his old self, or even better. Even though I am happy to see him coming back and working so well with the choir people, I know that at some underground levels of my conscious I am in fact jealous of him. He's just so fluent, so musical, so charismatic, so inspirational. He just came in and took everyone by storm. He's friendly, everyone loves him. Oh well. I guess he's just like that, oh-so-likable, while I am more of an 'acquire taste'. Haha. Working with the choir has been quite an experience, all the way down to that last minute drama on friday night, in which I discovered just how much some people dislike me, which was quite depressing. Shit. I bet once people find out I'm actually psuedo-ly 'in-charge' of the alumni's music affairs nobody would join. Haha. Crap. >_<
(I have no idea what happened to the rest of the post. It just disappeared.)
