we performed for the J2s today...and we are performing for the J1s tmr...i know that it would be one of the last few chances we would really get to sing like this as a full choir in the hall...it has been great time with them...
Thank you MJChoir Committee 2004...you all have done the best!! let us show you all that MJChoir's limits can be stretched...=)

Yeap!!
I should start off this post with a high enthusiastic note!! haha!!
well...lots have happened this from the last time i posted a post...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. Event: Interview with Ms Wong, Melissa (QM) and Jeremy Oh (Tenor SL) for the post of Treasurer in MJChoir!!
Outcome: Yeah!! i was shortlisted to run for the post of Treasurer!!
And i enjoyed myself thruout the whole interview!! i am so proud of myself...(oh no! some self-pride here...hehe!! not boasting kkk!!!!) Just hoping that i will give a nice speech on mon and that people will vote for me to be in the committee!! Please everyone!! give me a chance kk!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2. Event: Meet the Parents Session today...
Outcome: Great!! teachers said lotz of good stuff to me and about me!! (yeah...some more self-pride--> must indulge on these self-pride before some downfalls happen...CHOI! i dont want that though...) dad talked lotz to them about PW and how to cope with the various subjects...actually, i dont basically have a problem with the subjects...just that my way of time management is still quite bad and they dont know about it..haiz...wateva...
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3. Event: Mr Ling's and Shazleen's bdae!
Outcome: Happy Bdae Mr Ling!! Happy Bdae Shazleen!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4. Event: Earthquake at Sumatra this afternoon.
Outcome: we were having lunch at ah kong house when the whole building started shaking...i felt my food going up my esophagus..urgh...bad feeling...it was ongoing for abt 2 mins...at first we thought that it was becoz of mom shaking her legs vigoursly coz she was bored as she watched us eat...then we realised not...hehe!! It sets my thoughts thinking...faults are moving and epicenters are moving each time there is an earthquake. by any chance...would singapore have had moved nearer to a place of high stress underneath? and that we would be in a danger of having an earthquake?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5. Event: Lee Chen and shaz interview for ODAC...
Outcome: I dont know...wish ya all the best kk!!
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
i realli dont want the days of choir practices with the seniors to end so soon...i really love practicing with them! the time we spent with each other has really been enriching...but not long enough...we are just beginning to enjoy being in each other's company. and now, after the concert, which is like in another 2 wks, we are no longer going to have much chance to sing with each other. and there are fewer chances of seeing each other...thank you for your love and caring heart throughout my stay at MJChoir!!

There is only one thing on my mind now... though there are lotz of other small ones...
Had the interview today for exco... a bit nerve wrecking...but i pulled it off quite well...i think...hehe! lots of qns asked... but i managed to ans...so i dont think it was badly done...just hoping that tmr i will receive good news...yeahz!!
*having faith in myself*
Other irritating stuff that is on my mind is my NAPFA...sheesh...the most hatred stuff for PE...i am beginning not to dread running...in fact, i wanted to do my 2.4 run today instead of the 5 stations...i had the urge to run!! i cant believe myself though...heheh!!
well...pulled it off quite well too....though overall i still failed...hehe! had an ungraded one for standing broad jump...now that is my fear...not the inclined pull ups anymore!! hehe!! its the irritating jumping stuff!!
i got A for sit and reach and sit ups, B for shuttle run, C for inclined pull ups and U for standing broad jumps...wat an irony...
just as wat the guys were saying, if you fail the pull ups, all the other stuff no need to take le. Guys, jia you kk? you all can do it...like i know...and hope that i can do my jumps...haiz... its not going to happen. i just hope that my 2.4 run will be a B or C so that i wont have to worry abt that and at most just try to retake the jumps. urgh...kenneth! when ya become president, must remember to abolish the NAPFA stuff kk? =)
but overall, i was quite pleased with myself for such an achievement on all of the other items! they were done very well!! yeah!! i am so elated! so satisfied with my grades!! hehe!! will try to improve on my jumps...i wanna get the gold! i dont even need to worry about the Silver bench mark le!! hehe!! Gold is within my reach, only if not for the standing broad jumps...haiz...
ok lahz...going to do my tutorials le!! looking forward to each day i spend in sch, besides all the tests...btw...today's geog test was crap...i didnt study at all and just went in to do the test...Alternate Energy resources...i studied overfishing only!! and so, crapped all the way thru...good luck to me!! haha!!
may each day get better and that i get more focus on my work and dont be so distracted....and may i complete all my tutorials esp geog econs and maths...hehe! dats everything lahz...
gtg...
to kok yong, take care ya!! may ya recover soon!! take all chances to catch more sleep! hehe! get well soon!!

Tired...Eyes shutting down without my consent...but i cant sleep! i have so much to do!!
Tutorials, tests, PW!!
If were to quit sch, should quit now, dont wait till the end of J1 and end of PW, time would have been wasted...
I dont have that in mind...but when seniors told me about their life now, coz kok yong was asking about my sch life etc, he was complaining abt his.
is it really that bad?
i chose this route, i will keep to it. no one forced me and i will keep my stand. JC is the route to U, and i will stand by it. No giving up, no complaints.
Yeah right...lets see how long i keep that stand.
But seriously, it has been enjoyable being in MJ. The people are great! Choir practices are something to motivate me...giving me a reason to go to sch...but all other things during the day are killing me!
I dont want to do PW!!
If i were to tell people whether to go to JC or not, i cant say no actually, PW is a terrible thing to do. But its is doing a dis-service to JC life as JC life is fun! its enriching and a good place to build up relationships with others. but the workload is really great though its still lesser than sec sch...hehe! must build the momentum!!
Tough...
But i will press on...

Ok ok...we didnt get the GOLD with honours that we expected...we got the GOLD....but its not too bad...jsut that we thought we deserved more! we put in really all the feelings and support that we could get out of ourselves...and the spirit and the mood were all in there! the whole perfomance was just extraordinary...=)
but no...to the judges...no...ok ...i admit...there was still a lot of room for improvement...but wat i felt was that just now's performance deserves a GOLD with HONOURS!! not trying to be a show off here...but yahz...seriously...we practiced so hard with a lot of committment and a lot of feeling and hopes!! but it just didnt work out i think...i just hope that the points that we get are the ones like just 1 or even 0.5 marks away from gold with honours lohz....haiz..
not many people are feeling good about the award...but we just have to accept the fact about it...all we can do now...for our batch is that we practice well...we practice hard...we practice with lots of spirit and friendship...and do well in our concert and show others that we arent just a gold choir...we are much more than that...also....practice hard for the next competition thats coming up in dec at KL...may we achieve more than today...not only in terms of the award...but also in terms of bonding of friendship and spreading love and confidence with our singing...Choir Rawks!! =)
haiz...i love the choir...but i dont want to see the state after which the seniors leave...i have no confidence in that...can someone raise that confidence level of mine??

Haiz...sian...sian sian....sian sian sian...
i cant get down to work....though i know that there is a lot for me to do...its just taht i cant get to do it...the mood is not there! prob coz there is lots on my mind which i cant say it out...
there is a lot of stress and pressure this upcoming wk! the SYF!! Tests! the track and field meet on fri...and coz of the mascot thing....just hope that everything will go welL!!
MJChoir has been practicing quite often..and even tmr...when its a public hol...we are still going to practice...i am not complaining!! i am in fact looking forward to every practice! i love the process of training for a competition! its just so exciting...esp when after all the hardwork we have put in and getting the great results...in this syf...we hope nothing less than GOLD WITH HONOURS! we can do it and i know we will get it...there is a bit of choir unity building up and i hope that this would carry on till the concert and to end of year's choir competition in KL!! its great to be in a hardworking choir and that there is a potential in getting great results and you know that some where down that line...we will see great relationships built up along the way...its just great companionship and support given to each other and the bond that unites the choir....ahz...may we get the results that we ought to get...GOLD WITH HONOURS!!
Jia you MJChoir!! =)
