Here I am sucking on Ms Noraini's 1-month-old cadbury crunchie chocolate. Trying to make myself feel better. Today was my SYF day, my LAST SYF day. And boy was it fun! Sadly, we did not manage to achieve the award that we had all been waiting for.
Everyone woke up early in the morning and I was the 5th person to reach sch and which was 6.10 am in the morning. The choir did some very fun exercises before warming-up vocally. Loved the "Bao" and "doughnut" exercise! Haha.
Anyway,everyone looked so beautiful and handsome in the gowns and suits respectively(obviously). Before we knew it we were at Victoria Concert Hall waiting for our turn to showcase our talents. VCH hold so many memories for me even though I went there for the first time only in Sec 1. The SYFs I had there,plus performances that I have admired with friends and family. I really love going there, gives the "re live the days" feeling. Haha.
I was really REALLY VERY TRULY excited!! Honestly,1 week beore SYF I felt that we really could have gotten a GOLD! However,the progress rate decreased slightly as THE DAY got closer. That was when I started preparing myself mentally to get a silver. but...
I never imagined how heartbreaking it is to get a silver when you want a gold SO BAD!!!
2 YEARS we have worked for a result that will remain for another 2 years. 6 hours of practice before SYF for 6 mins in the spotlight.. I know people say,"The result doesn't matter, as long as you try your best" ..I really dont know why but I still regret even when I DID try my best!
So here I am,with another nett weight 40g of chocolate to comsume.. and still regretting.
BUT.
REGERTTING NO USE!! To all choir members who read this :" Those of you who still have another chance to go for SYf...The choir's fate lies with you. Those who are graduating the within the next two years... We have the most important duty now. We have the prepare the choir so that they will be ready before 2011. So I hope everyone is with me. Cause I am NOT giving up on getting a GOLD!!! Graduating or not, I am not giving up on bowen chorale cause I know that WE CAN DO IT!!
Signing off,
Marissa.
