Friday, April 27, 2007

everyone sang.


SYF is scary this year, many many conflicts/criticizing here & there.
It's like a performing arts groups' war in school.
I dont remember 2 years ago to be like this.

Choir notice board, someone [idk who] anyhow tear & slant our papers.
Was very angry at first but mrs wong told me to think positively.
She said at least those papers are up there nicely for more than a week.

SYF over liao, just hope that this SYF saga will be over soon.
& that the performing arts groups' celebration will be a blast, not a disaster.
or maybe we should perform for each other again. LOL.

Jiahao's house-warming tomorrow.
andandand, jamie hit his butt just now. ROFL!

JIAYOU for mid-year exams!

Congrats guzheng for getting a gold!
Happy for you guys, you guys really deserve it man.

I know my mood wasnt right or good today.
Sorry, was feeling sad/sour for myself.
One week of acting as if I'm okay
but I dont have the strength to put up a brave front today.

from jill's blog.
i still cant accept the fact.
they dont deserve it.
they deserve much
better.
shant comment on the judges.
but, no matter what.
they are
the best alrd.
the best thing that
happened in my life.
i may not
be singing with them anymore.
like dad asked.
did i cast a shadow on uvphs.
i think i dint cast a shadow,
i think i left a legacy.
a legacy of team spirit.
a legacy of togetherness.

this is
dedicated to my one and only, UVPHS.

all the effort you put in.
has taken effect.
look at the bonds between you guys.
feel the unity in your hearts.
gold or not, its just a label.
you all know how well you did.

its in your hearts.
its in your voices.

When will we get the judges' comments?
My heart aches whenever I hear criticism from others about choir.
Even choir blog also have lor. Say choir lousy.
& please, choir aint gonna close down just because of a bronze.

Omg, my sister said that someone said this to her
"See, guzheng seniors so generous,
give the juniors a bear each.
Your sister should jian tao yi xia."

What is it going to do with me? Guzheng is guzheng ma?
You mean I should give 65 syf choir members a bear each?
Just joking. hahas. I cannot afford 65 bears lahs & I wont copy guzheng.

There's still farewell function. Looking forward, UVPHS<3s!

Gonna start mugging already.
Mid-year gonna start in less than a week time.
But I know I wont do very well. LOL.

Collected my 4grace class jersey yesterday night!
Nice nice nice, it's adidas! it's almost the same as 3compassion's. hahas.

Jogathon 2007.

Planned to run with Yiwei & Yixuan but got separated from them halfway.
I want i want i want the 100th position! hahahas.

Then I ran past my choir juniors & they are so cute/funny!
They told me to run for justice! [unjustified SYF results]
HAHAHAS! So i decided to run, got 39th position.
If only, if only, i could really run for justice & be justified.

My face turned super super super red after that, very tired too.
Samantha was very nice! Thank you samantha:D
& I asked lennon to treat me hotdog. thank you!

Moooooooo~




12 choir members!

Laurel treated all of us bubble tea. thank you!

We were feeling empty without choir practices! hahahas.
We walked around aimlessly in amk hub
& even called Mrs Wong to ask her if we could go her house. LOL.

choirrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Bronze = prawns prawns prawns.
How some people sneered at choir. funny ehh~ LOL.

Choir members: Dont care what other people think/say about us.
What matters most is what we think of ourselves;
If we oursevles think that we are good, then we are good:D

I know that all of us are feeling unjustified.
We worked very hard, practiced like everyday?
& not that we are worst than the silver choirs after us.

I found this -Is life fair?
Sometimes you have to wait for justice. One day
though, the guilty will be punished & the innocent will be rewarded. Don't
worry. It all evens out in time. It can be hard to watch good people suffer
& bad people thrive sometimes. Just be patient. Whether you want to call it
Karma, God or whatever, what goes around comes around!

Look at life as a learning process and believe that setbacks can make us stronger.
Utilize mistakes and setbacks to do things better the next time.

JIAYOU UVPHS SYF 2009! we will get a gold one fine day!
All the best! I wont be able to watch you guys.
Unless if I'm rich enough to fly back to Singapore from Perth. LOL.

PHOTOS!

Emails to the leaders from miss yee & mrs wong

Dear all,
just wanted to drop a note of thanks for your performance at
SYF yesterday. I know we are all very sad and disappointed and the twist of fate. But i personally feel that the choir did well. you exercised control and did not let the music control you. God was with us throughout the whole event, despite the results we are thankful to Him.
Sec 4 leaders: U did a GREAT job. I am very proud of you, in terms of leading the choir in ALL things big and small
Sec 3 leaders: despite taking a less frontline role during this SYF, I am glad for your support you showed to your leaders, to me and to the choir
ALL of you : u exerised a lot of unity thro'out this process that no choirs i know showed, that is more important the SENIORS and YANG Kai: thank you very much for your unwavering support. You have been a pillar of strength to the us all, thro good times and bad times. Really appreciate it.
Teachers: Thank you for your unwavering support and belief in the choir. have a good rest.

Ms Yee

Dear Flora,
All those you thanked I want to thank too. Everything you said about them reflect what is in my heart. They rose to the occasion and their attitude and effort is examplary. They are the results of your labour, you taught as much more than to sing, you taught us life lessons.

Thank you
adeline wong



awwww~ mrs wong's message is short yet full of meaning!

BRONZE; I dont understand. yesyes, i really dont understand.
Anyway, we did our very best! so we shall not have any regrets!

Spirits were high after our performance, we know that we did our best!
Even Mrs C. Tan is proud of us! We did everything we could!

I think there's something wrong with me man.
& people think that I'm not okay.
Cos I didnt cry! Everyone was crying but I cant cry out!

Dumman Secondary School damn good man! congrats!
They really really deserve the GOLD-WITH-HONOURS!

YTSS's song piece keep running through my head. ah~

SYF soprano 2007 [without madeline] hope that can take complete soprano photo!




gold or not, i dont care anymore. as long as we know that we put it our best.



thank you xiaoman & guzheng[:


first chemistry lesson/tuition from isabella's sister today.
she has a passion in teaching! goodgoodgood teacher. hahas.
Recently, I posted only happy posts because people said that my posts are emo?
Guess what, I bottled everything up & went totally nuts today.
Yes, I think I'm going to be blind soon because of all the tears today.

When choir have to use the seminar room & guzheng use the music room,
I tried telling people 'neh mind neh mind, it's okay.' Then Mrs Wong called
and said that she booked all 3 rooms & she talked to linlaoshi on the phone.
I didnt know what she said but I know she insisted on us moving back to music room.
I know that guzheng will have a hard time moving their things but I carn do anything.
So guzheng shifted to the seminar room & choir have to move back to the music room.

I'm the kind that will just say 'neh mind neh mind, anything anything.'
But of course not everybody will think the same way as me.
There are complains from many many many people.
I thought that you guys will think the same way as me, just move without complaining.
It's just my stupid, naive & selfish way of thinking ehh.

Everybody was super angry & everything & I hate to see everybody like this.
I dont know why, i just cried. Cried really a lot at the stairs there.
I wanna say thank you to sec.4 guzheng girls. Linlaoshi was really nice too. ty!
Didt go back for choir practice. No face man, i feel super ashamed to face choir people.
Yiwei, I should have given up the chairman post right? I suck at it.

I'm sorry people, I'm just a useless chairperson that carn seem to get anything right.
Carn do anything to help settle the rooms problem & make everybody happy.
Carn persuade Mrs Wong that using seminar room is fine.
Aiya, I'm not fit to be the chairman lahs. I'm really sorry.
But neh mind neh mind, it's just 3 more days left before i officially step down.

andandand, I'm like so dead lahs, carn get into a good school in Australia.
Using my mid-year marks that's why common tests & class tests are all so important -
that I cried during 10 minutes interaction period on friday
because I carn understand a thing for physics class test later on.
I know, I'm really a crybaby.

Thank you to people who cared, thank you so much! especially isabella[:

2 years ago, it was choir's SYF! hahahas.
i went to take a look at my old post and found all these.

(miss yee 5th april 2005) Dear choir,
i am sorry that u missed your GOLD. but the main thing was becuase you were very tensed. be encouraged that Mr nelson Kwei and Ms lim aihooi, both conductors of Gold wif honours choir, took the trouble to come to me and tell me that they actually expected you to get a GOLD. probably becasue it was the first day, so you lost out on that. don't forget, you were busy preparing for the 40th anniversary, before the march hols. to be able to come this far is already very good. i am proud of you. you were already winners before you went to SYF. too bad we didn't get it, but so what. earn from it and move on. i will see u guys soon. will be going away to rest for a week, then we will come and celebrate ok?

(boon jun 5th april 2005)
YO everyone, miss yee is right, all of you are already winner before u all went to SYF, all of the seniors are very proud of the unitedvoices of PHS!BeliEve ME..U all have already get a Gold in our heart.YOu all have made great improvement since yr 2003 and i am sure u all will keep on improving and we shall really get a GOld one day,this is for sure. We shall not feel guilt or angry as what is done cannot be undone,continue feeling guilt and angry will bring us no where, we shall look towards the future and rmb any lesson learned in this incident.muz »¯±¯·ßΪÁ¦Á¿! FOr the sec 2s,1s n some of the sec 3s,there's still another SYF for u all,workhard for it!We hav FAith in u all!Do not be worried by the graduating of seniors in 2 yrs time as u all are going to be the seniors the juniors are going to depend on next time,believe in u urself! For the sec3s n 4s, what u all can do is to come back after graduating to help them.MAke the juniors to love choir like u all did,tell them the story that u all hav been through,make them hav a sense of belonging to choir and tell them why are we aiming for a gold next time.Come back often to make choir more interesting,we can organise camp, help to teach sectional or bond them together to hav what yitian said, teamwork.We can even form a choir alumni to support choir rite??So do not be sad that u all hav no more chance to take part in SYf anymore,u all still can contribute in many ways! Well,i think should COngrat HIHS for getting a GOLD,we shld be happy for them instead of comparing ourselves whether we are better then them not rite? There's still a long long way to GO!so JIA YOU and nv give up easily!yea!LEt us now take a break before we continue to workhard for the SYF in 2007! lastly...guys, u all did a good job really, really shld celebrate! UP coming activity for choir will be JUNE camp!!!yea~i hope all of u all will take part k??Esp the sec1, ha.

(yitian)Dear Choir,
I'm sure you guys might be bearing guilt and anger for what we get in the competition yesterday. And I'm sure you guys might know by now how hihs did. However, what I really want to say now, is that you guys will treat this experience as part of a lesson in your life, as most importantly, to the juniors, the next syf competition in year 2007. If you might wonder how you guys did that day, the answer is: not all are puting in the best. I know the commited ones will know from their hearts that, not all the members are actually putting in the best efforts, especially during practices. As Miss Yee's mention it before, everything is within our reach... but its just whether we're putting in our best effort a not. And bear in mind, putting in your effort means that everything you got. That requirs commitment, and focuss. Do what is right at the right time. Don't talk during practice! Is that what we always told you? But why haven't people take that in mind? But most importantly, commitment doesn't comes from only one of you. It takes the entirely choir to do so! Everything just applies the same in your studies, your class project. Having only a few commited ones don't make things best. I'm sure you yourselves know in the first place that, our standard is not exactly far from hihs. In fact, by just comparing our results with them, we're just a step, a few marks away to gold! You see how teamwork really make such a difference? Can you imagine, scoring 49.5 when you're just a mark away from the passing grade? Missing a second when you're just that amount of time away from the gold medal in running contest? Every person make a difference in the competition in choir, and if you think you're just that tiny piece that can just don't exist.. why on earth bother to come and practice? Why on earth singing the first place in syf? You yourselves can see how close that gold is away from us. How close! But somehow we're can't even control those obstacles which in fact, is within our control -discipline and commitment. What I really hope now, is you guys to know:

To achieve a common goal in life, it doesn't take only practices and hard work. What's really required of you, is whether you heart is in it to achieving that. What follows is your commitment, right down from your heart. Never underestimate teamwork.. because it really plays a very big part to achieve that goal.

We've learnt a lesson, and the seniors can never have syf again. For now, it's really the junior's job to learn to face such situation when syf comes in 2007. To those sec ones and twos who didn't get involved in syf, it's really your job now to learn when the time comes. For the others.. I hope that these would be a tip to rely on when you're aiming to achieve something you want. For now, there's no use crying over spilled milk but most importantly, you learnt from your mistakes and never do it again. Why brood over that when people never put their efforts in the first place? Be contented with your God for what you're achieving - maintaining a silver and keeping miss yee with us. Really thank Miss Yee who never give up on us and still trying to help us during the period before syf. I thank Mr Nah, for helping us and I thank the seniors like yang kai, and our teacher-ic who never failed to keep us going til today. I thank God for blessing us with such helpers we'll never forget despite our wiltfulness during practices.
