Singapore Youth Festival Central Judging for Choirs for Secondary Schools has officially ended.
This year I have considerable interest in the Secondary Schools' competition. While I was still a student, the then Chinese High School had no choir, so I didn't really care about how the secondary schools did then. This year is different though. I helped coached both Chinese High and Anderson Secondary, so I had SOME stake in the competitions.
Miss Lim was nice enough to secure me "Instructor" passes, so I was basically there for the whole duration of the competition, together with Cherie and sometimes Krystal.

Ok, I cannot stand keeping it in anymore.

ANDERSON GOT GOLD WITH HONOURS!
WOOT! Congrats to Lao Niang! Well of course, me and Cherie had a little contribution. Haha! I am really happy for them. It was quite a nervous time waiting for the results with Ms Yeo and Yee Cheng and Cherie. I'm so proud of them! They sang really well that day. =)
And I thought things couldn't get any better.
But...
CHINESE HIGH GOT GOLD!
Wow! That was like, completely unexpected! For a first-time choir, where they had around 10 members 6 months ago, it's quite unbelievable that they managed to get Gold. Mr Yong and Miss Lim both super happy. I was too shocked to feel anything. I thought it was perhaps a good enough for Silver. But the results were announced and when I heard "Hwa Chong Institution, Gold", my jaw literally dropped. Lol. Damn happy for them too. And, again, me and Ern Theng made a little contribution. =)
Here are the more significant results:
Gold with Honours:
1) Catholic High School (Kwei)
2) Dunmen Secondary School (Toh)
