足早に通り過ぎてく
どれだけの季節 過ぎたんだろう
見慣れた景色を歩いて
遠い記憶から 一人抜け出せないまま
行き場を失いそうな…
そんなとき君と出逢った
この街で めぐりあった
今も忘れないよ あの日から
たくさんの悲しみとか 潜んだ不安 全てを
君のぬくもりで思い出に変えた Proud of your love
拾った二つの貝殻
もう一度君にあえたような奇蹟
君がそばに居てくれたら
心の奥まで優しい気持ちになれる
激しい雨が降っても
強い風が吹く中でも
この愛を 守りぬける
君とならきっと越えられる
そう初めてそう思えたから この手を放さないように
ずっと大切に大切にして
この街で めぐりあった
今も忘れないよ あの日から
生きること 信じること 悦びに変えながら
いつまでも二人 共に歩こう Proud of your love
april is ending. :)

oh well anyway vs4 did great!!!! mika was supposed to be taking her papers at 7pm but we saw her at 7 plus at ob! i was telling raq that she may have seen a ghost! hahaha raq, geraldine and i were super touched when we saw her just now la!!! mika said she just finished one qns and handed up the paper immediately. hahahahaha oh mika's voice really rocked la. if we didn't have her i think everything wouldn't be as nice. HAHHA raq and geraldine rocked too! hahahha just don't be nervous on stage! (winks)

donated blood today! they should keep having more blood donation drives at the cc downstairs! hahah then i can go down every 3 months! ahahah
ok at least that's one productive thing i did today. was trying the stats paper just now... totally no clue what's going on. DIE. i have been using too many DIEs nowadays. hahaha
oh yeah choir test was alright la. actually thought we did quite well. and it was fun playing the pop songs on piano with priscillia during our practice! hahah i just can't believe how some ppl can catch chords so easily while i simply don't have the gift. :(
i hate exam periods. i just keep having this guilty tingling feeling in my heart every time i play the piano, watch the tv, or listen to music.
全世界都停电 tank
连你都会残忍隔绝我的心能要谁了解
眼中烛光摇晃着熄灭为何把我推向边缘
被砸坏了的一切卡住了我让我无法往前
囚禁在距离笑声最远的房间
单独隔离寂寞地盘旋
全世界都停了电全世界都封了街
我所有窗子外面被贴上黑夜
我呐喊思念却没人听见
绝望到极点剩的是疲倦
全世界都停了电全世界白雪满天
才发觉在我心间有回忆碎片
一作梦翻身就刺痛流血
我卷着身体缩成一个圈
像一个句点
i first heard this song during earth hour week - so i initially thought that it was a 'save the world' song! hahahah how silly.
oh and how can i miss such a nice jay chou song -
花海
静止了所有的花开
遥远了清晰了爱
天郁闷爱却很喜欢
那时候我不懂这叫爱
你喜欢站在那窗台
你好久都没再来
彩色的时间染上空白
是你流的泪晕开
不要你离开
距离隔不开
思念变成海
在窗外进不来
原谅说太快
爱成了阻碍
手中的风筝放太快回不来
不要你离开
回忆划不开
欠你的宠爱
我在等待重来
天空仍灿烂
它爱着大海
情歌被打败
爱已不存在

my parents said that i have been singing too much. bah it's true. but i just can't help it.
had dance test(??hhahaha) at ocean butterfly today with teacher 小珂 today. she had long hair today! hahahah anyway the dance moves were sorta challenging! have to break dance on the floor one! hahah madness. anyway she mentioned that i am totally not relaxed and didn't give my all. hahah i beg to differ! i totally gave it all, but it's dance the non-dance genes in me that was causing all the blunders. HAHHA anyway after dance class had to work on 如果爱情 again. luckily we did the arrangements and part designation today. i think i will send them the updated chord progression later! :D

alright. and so i was a little bit grumpier the past few days. HHAHAHA
received 3 hoaxes on april fool's. first thing in the morning with alicia telling me that she would be heading back to kl that day. second one during marketing class. then the third one when ben told me that marcus told him that sue lynn is in hospital and whether we should visit her. :P
oh yeah was at ocean butterfly yesterday and hong jun yang was our teacher for the unplugged session. yah and we were supposed to catch the chords (which i sorta had the gift for! hahahah) for this newly composed song and i had to play the piano (which i totally suck at). the performance is on the 13th, just 2 days before my OB paper. SHIT happens. HAHHAH but nvm will work hard for everything.
anyway had our last ob lesson with chi ching. okay la. she's really not a bad person. it's just that her lessons do not value-add very much. but she's really intrinsically warm and caring. hahha and so we took some photos with her before we parted.
oh yeah tapas at bakerzin later in the afternoon! i am saving my stomach for that! heehee

listening to Wang Lee Hom's 脚本 now. NAISE!
脚本
你爱得好有趣就像一个编剧
你的一举一动都谱写着未来
世界也太乏味更需要编的很美
像第一次见面的场景
从来不曾怀疑牵你渡过了瓶颈
多希望创造一个美好的结局
用最真的感觉慢慢一页一页写
我只期待你陪我演完
我们的脚本要写的好认真
我已经看过太多的悲剧
能给一点点笑就算是笑中带泪
我也无所谓无所谓
你的一颦一言都谱写着未来
思念也太乏味更需要编的很美
像第一次分手的场景
我也无所谓
看完这个脚本陷得好深好深
要我如何演好爱你的人
故事里男主角剧终时泪中带笑

Solar Energy
thought that there was getting less and less meaning in maintaining this blog.
hahah anyway while my dad was driving me back to hall half an hour ago, i was thinking about why solar energy hasn't been harnessed well enough. esp in Singapore! we should learn how to get rid of all that heat and turn it into useful energy! then singapre can be in perpetual spring or autumn. WHEEEE
ok so what's inhibiting this technological transition? issit cost? or issit technology itself?
(imagines a big reflective bowl above singapore on a monday afternoon with singaporeans wearing 2 layers of clothing in a 24degc environment.)

latest infatuation with food:
just watched slumdog millionaire. quite a good plot. it takes creativity to come up with a good storyline. either that or a stroke of genius.
jianhao has a secret - he HATES to check NTUmail. HATES it.
kapo-ed this quiz from pockthong's blog:
| What is your True Fear? Your Result: Being Alone While you may act like you don't care on the outside, on the inside your biggest fear is being alone. You can be quite shy and reserved. You feel like a lot of times people don't really see the real you. You're afraid that no one will really truly love you, and that you will be alone for the rest of your life. On the inside you are great person, so just remember that and don't let your shy nature get the best of you! If you don't want to be a lone then you need to make an effort to be with someone. Show the people that you care about that you really love them, and chances are someone will always be there, even if you think they won't. | |

Yu Ye Hua: Blossoms in the Night Rain
am listening to Victoria Chorale's Yu Ye Hua: Blossoms in the Night Rain from 2002.
No wonder we had a CD. VC really sang brilliantly. the ring was glad. together with the blend. i was comparing miao jia in 2002 and in 2007. it was startling how different both songs were performed. HAHA talking about understanding our past. also have been listening to the cd for so many years. however it was only just now did i manage to spot the high descant hum in ang aking bituin at the start of the song. HAHAHHA
i am proud to be the pres of this choir. sometimes i feel abit embarrassed to admit becuz there are just so many things to learn along the way! hahahaha but we are really one big FAMILY OF SINGERS, aren't we? :D
And of cuz, after every phase in life there has to be changes, whether we like it or not. now's the time for VC to change and move on to a better, greater future. :D
need to learn more ob concepts on building teams and resolving conflicts. :)
am glad i did my first set of accounting tutorials this sem! at least i tried~~~
we are all spastic.
we want to work more so that we have a greater sense of affection to something that we have CREATED.
we want to pay more for the brand / price prestige. HAHAH.
i chanced upon an article saying that the ST THOMAS BOYS CHOIR from LEIPZIG will be performing Johann Sebastian Bach’s legacy at the Esplanade Concert Hall. Ticket prices range from S$38 to S$118.
hmmmm why can't vc tickets be as expensive? HAHAHAHAA.
I am sure ours can be. look at our ticket prices in korea. :D 30,000 won to 80,000 won. that's about 40 sing bucks to 100 sing bucks.

post 444 - had a day full of meetings for ob and marketing.
10am - OB meeting
2.30pm - lunch in hall
4.30pm - STATS meeting
6pm - OB MEETING
9.30pm - STATS meeting.
AND here i am.
yes yc...I AM TRYING VERY HARD TO HANG ON LEH. but it's as if i am clinging on to a rubber band which may just snap anytime. i know if i pass through this period everything will be much better and i most certainly would regret it if i didn't get any degree. anyway all these things are making me really forgetful. i totally forgot that my black shoes are at home and my OB presentation's tml. luckily eugene was kind enough to lend me ying guang's shoes! WAH LIAO IF NOT AR....
and to make matters worse the OB case critique, which forms 20% of the semester grade, falls on next tue. and i have yet to study anything about it yet. I WILL DIE VERY SOON. HAHAHAHAHA
and i am going to pon prawning with npc guys on friday to go FAME, if not wensi and steph will kill me. i know. i should be studying. even my mom sounds exasperated drilling that idea into me. i am exasperated too. my it's a matter of my abilities not being able to live up to my expectations. BAH.
ANYWAY I AM DAMN TIRED. SHALL SLEEP EARLY. :)
just before i forget, the blueberry & strawberry shortcake cookies at hall16 canteen rox. :)
Wednesday, February 11, 2009
it must have been a bad afternoon. i opened a can of tuna and i totally can't finish it. i wasn't even hungry. will it go bad if i leave it covered until tml morning? DIE.
alright anyway there comes a point in life when decisions have to be made.
i just don't like numbers. i hate accounting and stats. how. on one hand i need to meet the expectations of my parents and continue to work hard, on the other hand i am really not happy handling all these tutorials and projects shit. ARGH. okay although when i called my mom yesterday to complain she told me that it was okay for me to not study. HAHAHA! i'm sure.
i think it's just that i am such a slacker and i can't take it when i am lagging and i can't study. i just paid for the sem's education and i definitely can't quit! AND I AM LACKING BY 3 TUTORIALS FOR ALL MY MODULES. just watched the stats online lecture 4 (lect 6 is going on now as i type this entry) and it's really boring. i can't imagine myself being an accountant. argh this double-degree thing really sucked. i'd rather be singing and doing things for chorale rather than going to school. but we all know that's not very practical. i have so many things to do for vc, so many dreams to fulfill, but there's no time. everyone is so busy handling school work and stuff. it's really tough. if only i can be paid to sing! hahahahhahahah finding it such a chore to study.
yah and i am totally neglecting all my friends. I AM SO SORRY. just blame me for being stupid in attending university. i can't even go home. :(
blah blah blah. shall skip first 2 hours of the choir elective and STUDY. then after that i will reach nie at 6.30 and then go off at 6.45 to take photos for hall3 table tennis. how zai.
oh friends come find me in my room i think i have some things for u from korea.
OKAY SHALL BE MORE POSITIVE!!!!!! :)
STUDY STUDY STUDY.

Victoria Chorale Brought the Soul of Music to Seoul
Victoria Chorale, one of Singapore’s most famous youth choirs, has just concluded a successful concert tour to Seoul, South Korea.
At the special invitation of J&A Music, South Korea's largest publisher of choral and orchestral music, Victoria Chorale performed a full-length concert in Seoul on February 3 to an audience of nearly 2000. The theme of the concert revolved around showing off the choir’s diversity in tackling challenging contemporary and sacred Asian and Western choral music. In particular, the choir also showcased music by a local composer, Dr Zechariah Goh Toh Chai.
Said Mr Jude Oh, the manager of the Department of International Performing Arts from J&A Music, “I have been planning this for a year. I am really overjoyed that the concert finally took place and that it has received such critical success.”
The concert entitled Victoria Chorale in Korea had an impressive turnout. In the hope of hearing a culturally diverse repertoire executed by an Olympic Champion Choir, many conductors of prestigious choirs such as Seoul City Choir and Ansan City Choir flew to Seoul from all over Korea to attend the concert. Mr KooChun, the chairman of Korean Federation of Choral Music (KFCM), also graced the event.
Mr Yoon Eui Joong, the conductor of the guest choir, Seoul Master Choral, commended, “Victoria Chorale gave a concert at the most professional level.”
In Singapore, Victoria Chorale is commonly known as the alumni choir of the Victoria Junior College Choir. The fresh, young and rejuvenating sound of the choir J&A Music heard at the World Choir Games 2006 convinced the Korean corporation to invite the choir to perform at the acclaimed Seoul Arts Centre.
Being showered with rave publicity on such a large scale in South Korea is the first for any choir in Singapore’s choral history. Victoria Chorale was featured in a premier Korean publication known as Choir & Organ which reaches out to a strong group of about 2000 choral enthusiasts. The concert was also covered by niche Korean newspaper, Seoul Culture Today. In addition, there was a live webcast and telecast of the concert on Arte TV – a Korean TV Station that plays 24 hours of classical performances. The broadcast of the Victoria Chorale Concert in Korea will also be repeated a further five times this year.
The choir’s resident musical director, Mr Nelson Kwei, was also invited to give a workshop on Southeast Asian choral music at a choral symposium organised by Professor Shin Hua Park from Ewha Womans University. While in Seoul, Victoria Chorale was also invited to perform at a dinner hosted by Mr Chua Thai Keong, Singapore’s Ambassador to South Korea. The choir was then featured on The Korea Times as the Singaporean choir that augured the prosperous 2009.
Mr Nelson Kwei remarked, “This Korea trip and concert has provided us with a brand new perspective on the future direction of Victoria Chorale. Going in the line of becoming a professional choir, being invited to perform in overseas festivals and having the honour to give concerts to an international audience will make us stronger ambassadors of the Singapore choral music.”
Victoria Chorale is grateful for the strong support shown by the National Arts Council, Singapore Tourism Board and People’s Association in making this trip possible.

alright. finally time to blog about korea all i want. :)
- seoul's freaking cold, and i got to wear as many layers of clothing as i want!
- seoul's really windy too esp during the extension trip. oh well i bathed a LITTLE LESS and got smelly feet the moment we reached dongdaemun. HAHHAHA so i decided to bathe a little more.
- initially caught flu on day one but i recovered with sue's medicine and sandy's liang teh.
- suelynn and i were the tour guides for the trip. MUAHAHAHA
- drank water from convenience marts everyday cuz water is not potable in korea. spent alot of money buying mineral water! hahha
- did pseudo-yoga exercises every morning to warm up the body. some ppl are just very flexible while SOME AREN'T. like me and.... HAHHAHAHA
- went to frasers suite where by the gm of the serviced residence, jerry gan, is the president of the singapore club. he hosted us and took us around for a tour of the apartments.
- went to ewha women's university for a conductor masterclass conducted by nelson and we were the demo choir. saw how conductors get psychomotor problems with 4/4 and 3/4 timings. HAHAH watch out for the video that i took for this event!
- singapore ambassador chua was really nice and he invited us to dinner at the shilla hotel, one of seoul's premier hotels, and we did a mini-performance. oh but i didn't really like networking. HAHHAHAH anyway i am relieved we asked everyone to wear really nice blazers and formal jackets to the event. HAHA!!!! pats shoulders.
- did ironing the night before the concert. thanks to sandy and sam and yc and nelc and minguo for helping out with the ironing! roomie emma was not bad at picking up this essential bachelor skill.
- seoul arts centre is really a great place to sing in. great acoustics, big stage,... we had to sort out our choreos on stage with nelson in the afternoon during the rehearsal and i had to pull a long face at everyone. HAHAH SORRY LA GUYS! i really would rather you get scolded by sue lynn and i than to be scolded by nelson. HAHAH
- the concert itself was ABOVE AVERAGE *quotes nelson. heeheee second half was clearly much better so kudos to the ppl who stayed on for the second half! the hall was quite filled! :D
- i really enjoyed the post-concert celebration that we had at the bar near to our co-op residence. the bar belonged to jude's friend so he helped us to book the bar and also ordered food. sue and i went to take a look at the bar the night before and thought that it was really nice! hahhaah yah we had so much fun that night with cass (a korean beer) and soju and fried chicken and omelette and skewers...OH MAN THAT WAS THE BEST NIGHT OF MY LIFE!!!also managed to kapo some korean pop music from the bar owner!!! HAHAHAHAHA best takeaway from the trip!
- jude became drunk that night, and we insisted that he hire a cab to go home. in the end he didn't even listen to us and drove to his office and then had more alcohol before driving home. oh man. he's damn emo that night, telling us how he really treated us like his own family and i really miss him!!!!! he's freaking nice!!!!
- oh my seoul's a food paradise. bulgogi, bibimbap, msg soup, glass noodles, samkiapsai (sam cham ba), cinnamon pancakes, seaweed, soju....OH MY!!!! i just didn't like kimchi at all. AHAHA
- there are lotsa cosmetics shops like face shop, skin food, etude house...got alot as gifts for family and friends as well as for yours truly! :D
- burnt my gloves at a radiator in a cosmetics shop
- shopping at dongdaemun was fantastic. the wholesale market had a really really wide variety of clothings to choose from, it's just that they only sell in bulk. and that's why i couldn't get the tee and belt i want. oh well. we went to another few malls like hello apm and good morning (hhaha weird names i know...) and the service there was much better. the vendors were telling each other that there are 3 singaporeans walking around the mall and better make a hell load of money out of them. HAHA no la there were really nice and took out all the short-sleeve tees that we requested. it's really funny all of them had the same reaction ("OKAY!") and then took out their stack of clothes from underneath the clothes on sale.
- shopping and eating till the wee hours (3/4am) is really common as the stores in dongdaemun are open for nearly 24 hours! that's korean night life for u :)
- had a museum tour planned by jude for the extension ppl. got some really sweet treats over there!!! hahahah
- loves the diary from insadong, the ice cream from myeong dong, strawberries from dongdaemun, the hyundai seaweed from coex mall, and donuts from last minute shopping at the airport.

- i am mesmerised by korean pop music.
- saw this really nice waitress from this fusion food restaurant twice. once at insadong and the next time at myeong dong. HHAH~!! what a coincidence. she was very surprised to see us at myeong dong and immediately blurted our "insadong!". HAHAH
- didn't realise how much a bimbo and himbo siying a.k.a. sally and asik a.k.a. klasik was until the trip. go visit http://www.tralalasally.wordpress.com/
- taxi in seoul is uber cheap. the meter starts at 1900won and doesn't jump until around 10 minutes later. MUAHAHHAH and so we stopped taking the subway. HEEEHEE
- too bad there's no snow.
- boeing777-300ER was really much nicer than boeing777-200. wah liao!!! damn comfy la! and the entertainment was much better. i was busy uploading photos onto my harddrive on the plane with gim sen's and sam's comp. HAHHHA i must have been the busiest passenger on the plane running around every 5 minutes. HAHHA oh the strawberry cheesecake ice cream that sia served was really really nice! must get it again!!! oh but the cheese on sq18 was really good.
- it's kinda difficult to spot an exceptionally beautiful korean in seoul. wonder why. even plastic surgery and tons of cosmetics don't work very well.
- BUT BUT BUT ---> the korean style of service is very very commendable, and i got alot of namecards from alot of ppl.
- I REALLY LOVE MY KOREAN FRIENDS!!! JUDE, JASPER, JAE HONG, JOE, THE BAR OWNER AND HIS HELPER, they are all DAMN NAISE!!!!!
- and the amount of media coverage we have in korea thanks to jude - appearing live on national tv, featuring in premier korean choral and orchestral magazine and arts paper, radio broadcast and online streaming of our performances. and kiat just showed me a web news article about us at shilla hotel. WAH LIAO! we better work hard for the press release(s) in singapore!!!!

yup. a few ppl were wondering why i look unhappy today...well the fact is i really was unhappy. still not very happy with how things unfolded today. like even when ppl said that they really appreciate all that i have done they didn't show it, and instead it's the opposite that happened.
help -> call -> kenna scolding. HAIZ.
yeah just didn't like the feeling at all.
oh well at least i passed my own anger-management tests (yes. PLURAL) today. lotsa unhappy incidents. I wonder when i will explode from all these suppressed feelings...:X
