Hello dearest choir members. Jinghang here.
though i am a slacker, i still have things to say.
afterall im singing in this choir for 3 years and 2 months, taking my 2nd syf in less than 20 hours time... seeing countless number of seniors go, and soon my turn will come...

though i am not very active but i still feel kind of she bu de...

well juniors though i don talk much to you peeps.. you might think i am an attitude-kid, dao kia but then i will cherish the happiness and sadness we shared.
rawk on!

always remember to

SHINE YOUR WAY THROUGH JOAQUIM CHORALE!
(i think this is one of the lines of the banner..)

and always

SING WITH YOUR HEART.

SING FOR JOAQUIM CHORALE.
SING FOR ONE ANOTHER.
SING FOR YOURSELF.

Do your best for SYF 2007!

thank you Vox Humana!! =)

yesh.. my darlingss juniors. DUN GIVE UP!

2005-03-13T00:56:00.000+08:00

heyy.. u guys MUST strive on.. u al must know HOW HARD we build up the choir.. MUST NOT let it fall k.. i noe my words r beri STRONG.. but this is the wae it is.. we reali put our heart n soul into choir when we r there.. dat's why u al can c how disappointed we r when we cant meet expectations n achieve the standards we wan.

the sopz knows me wel.. i wont give up easily.. since when hav i walk out on u girls when we r training?? i dun.. i wil keep repeating until i get it right.. DAT's da spirit.. although us(the seniors) reali wanted to leave the choir early last yr to concentrate on our studies, we stil went on the ABRSM exam with u al..

so.. no matter wad.. rmb my words.. perservere on!!! n juniorss(refering to sec 1s to 3s), do help the sec 4 seniors out.. i noe wad they r goin thru.. to be leading the choir at their most impt yr is NOT EASY AT AL!! their study life is reali beri tough.. they reali need more time for their studies.. so.. pls help me pass this msg to the juniors during practice..

i hope i can visit u al SOON!! pls tel me the practice schedule for the march hols.. thanks peepx.

~gEn~

2005-03-12T22:12:00.000+08:00

well,honestly, i hv nothing to say abt it...ppl cant taking hardship and wanting to quit... well, at first, i wanted to quit, that was last yr, i think. the ABRSM exam was freakin' me out... the training was tough, but in the end, when we went for the eaxm,and after that, i felt GOOD.a unexplained feeling of happiness and sastification.ya... if any of of u want to quit,think abt it first. it's still all worth it at the end of the day.trust me.

2005-03-11T20:38:00.000+08:00

I definitely believe that the choir can get a silver.
I can see the desire in the seniors.
All things are possible if you have the will and desire.
Work towards the dream.
Focus and strive for it.
Dreams dont come to pass without work.
If dreams do come to pass without work, it means useless dreams.
the graduated seniors will always be there for you guys.
no matter what you guys have for SYF, we will still be very proud of you guys.
cus we know the hard work you guys had put it!!
Go people, go the way that the choir should go!
You guys can do it.

cheegeok

OMG!!

2005-03-11T20:09:00.000+08:00

Well i can see that many in choir such as zhaofreak, xiaoling and others wanted to get a silver for syf...however if this kind of standard continues... i don think we can sia.... i really hope we could change.. i strongly felt that we can do it... if we concentrate....focus... and stuff. we also cannot let our past seniors down man... then samantha and charmaine oso say wan 2 quit choir liao... donno they quit le mah... bit i think so cuz saw them talking to miss yu this morning... =(... i really hope that we can improve...really.... [maybe u ppl might feel the above stuff like very liddat fake...but it is wad i really feel...]

2005-02-22T19:30:00.000+08:00

lol, i oso can blog le. cool~!

2005-02-22T11:49:00.000+08:00

YAY!!! Tml is choir..

2005-02-17T19:46:00.000+08:00

Hmmm... erm.. yay tml is choir.. n we r goin to have a very tight schedule for the rest of the term.. we are goin to prepare for SYF..anyways.. now i tink mr chan have a new way of makin us keep quiet.. he draws strikes on the board...? anyways.. the choir is gettin very low attendance.. i mean now nt a lot of pple cum for choir.. thou ya there are still people but then pple will skip choir as n when they like.. tt makes it very difficult to learn cuz we have to wait for them to catch up in the followin lesson.. haiz.. i felt very sad when i heard ravi.. the tenor boi.. he said tt he didnt want to come for choir.. n also said tt it was a waste of time.. lol.. then i told tt to mr chan.. n then he cum tell mi he was juz jokin.. i mean.. how can u joke abt this kind of thing? widout him means one less voice to sing.. which makes the tenor grp even smaller.. now tenor str is alreadi only 3 tenor bois.. excludin the tenor gals.. haiz so its like tenor is gettin smaller n smaller.. anyways.. for the sop attendance.. they can go to as small as only half of the grp.. so its like.. for example.. if sops make up half of choir..tt means the choir str for tt day will bcum onli 3/4!!! tts like arnd 25 pple misin.. nt to count in the others who r frm bass, tenor n alto.. so is like.. i relly tink tt pple are treatin choir as a place where they onli go if they wanna stay in sch n pass their time.. anyways.. hopefully we can sttle tis problem.. haiz gtg.. i relly look forward to tml's choir practice.. kk next time then update.. BYEZ

Ha abt tml..

2005-02-07T21:58:00.000+08:00

Wah tml chinese new year eve... the choir is gonna perform tml!!! Haiz as usual we are again near the end of the performance... then band 1st... haiz.. anyways.. tml sch onli half day.. so i tink performance is arnd 10-11 plus.. ha tml when choir singin then they are gonna announce sumthin for the prefects to give the teachers mandarin oranges.. hopefully the same thing tt happened on teachers day will nt happen again... oh yea and also another sec 2 boi cum join choir!! yay another new bass... ha.. now at least have more bass... prob is tt like very little bois now lehz... so sad... anyways next time then update larz.. kk bb
