before helen nags me again, I shall blog a short while before i sleep. It's almost 1!!!
Anyway, I couldn't go for the Deb Fong concert in church yesterday cos I was performing in my school's Festival of Arts
. We had a matinee in the afternoon and a bigger one at night. For the choir, the matinee's performance wasn't very good. There was someone who came in early for one part, and it was super obvious. Then we started rushing during our 16 part Como Tu because I guess we were quite nervous. Result: Once we got out of the backstage, we had a huge scolding from our student conductor. Oh well...Then in the evening, my conductor was supposed to come, but she suddenly didn't feel well, and so she really tried by still coming down to school and sitting down to conduct us for one song, but after that she couldn't take it, and really needed to go home. Then she apologised to us Sec 4s, because a lot of us came back for this last performance and really wanted her to conduct (she really is one of the best conductors around. Dunno how she does it, but she manages to bring out the right emotions and dynamics in the choir...something no student conductor has ever done). Anyway, the evening performance was a lot better, but still not excellent lah. Of course SYF was better..haha...after taking away so many sec 4s and putting in Sec 1s, the sound just isn't the same. Still, it's my last ever performance as a choruster, kind of sad...but I'm still determined to join something else next year. Hope that fills an empty space :)
By the way, thank you Wanting, Liane Corinna, Cheryl, Phei Qi and Helen for the flowers and chocolate/Oreos. Oh! And people not from our school (dunno where they're from) actually said the choir sounded very good! haha...interesting...
Okay, I've typed a lot. Helen, you should be happy. Gotta go sleep. It's been a wonderful Sunday :) As usual. Back to dreary Monday. Good night!
