Hey guys! my beloved sop1s. IT's been a while since i posted on this blog.. i know... but there are a few matters i have to address...don't worry it's not a scolding:>

Okay firstly, SECTIONAL RUNS. I expect all members of the section to be there, unless you tell me before hand that you are not going because you have a good reason. Secondly, i want all members to RUN, during the run. It's a run. Not a walk. So please...thank you very much. Cause it's really no use if you walk, because we are training. Not taking a stroll. I know it's like really informal, so let's keep it that way, a relaxed thing. But....you guys have to run. If not....my exercise regime for you guys ..will change :)...
Which brings me to the next point:

I know you guys are like upset over the whole Prague thing and all. And i think you know I am to. But just wanna apologise for giving everyone a black face that they. But after going home and thinking it over, i realised that maybe Ms ong was right. Maybe we just, are not ready. I don't know...it's hard to admit it, but honestly. Especially when Ms low talked about the day when the esplanade people came to listen to us that day. It is true. If we can't even sing well, or let's say, sing properly during a practice, then how are we to say that we are ready to sing for PRAGUE?? haha...i know this sounds hypcritical because i was like not willing to accept any reasons for not going to prauge. But i realise now,i was wrong. So here i am apologising, and hoping you'll get wat i mean.
I feel we musn't let this get us down. We must really push for Muscial Evening, and SYF. To prove to the whole school, that we are not just another CCA. But one that demands respect. And no one is going to give us respect, IF, we continue this way. and i highlight IF, because. It means, that the outcome can go two ways.
1) we contiue on the same lacklustre way. And we dont' prove ourselves.


2)We work as hard as ever. And we acheive everything that we have been dreaming of.
Making the dream into reality is gonna be hard work. But it's necessary. :) I really hope that we can work together as a section to push ourselves to sing better, and also to push the choir together. Especially during sectionals..remember the latest sectionals? when i was conducting Diu Diu Dang? i think all of you knew i was super pissed cause i kept on scolding. and scolding. and scolding. And maybe i said alot about the Sop 1s...but it's because I know our part better so i can spot the mistakes. To tell you the truth honestly, if we had sung like that in a concert, everyone would leave the hall. I don't wanna demoralise you. :> but it's true. It was really really bad. The whole choir as a whole. And it's NOT BECAUSE WE AREN'T CAPABLE! WE ARE ALL CAPABLE. It's just that again, the focus is not there. Everyone was quiet. BUT...no one was focusing. If you TRULY focus. I am telling you, you will be able to sing as well as when ms ong is around! I am not lying. Like when i told you guys to close your eyes and sing alleluia! it was beautiful!that's because all you thought about was to sing. Nothing could distract you. AND I AM TELLING YOU..please. please..that we all would sing beautiful, if we just PUT OUR HEART ADN SOUL into it. And i believe that all of us has what it takes to be a great great section, and also a great great choir! We can do this! you must tell yourself, that I WANT TO DO WELL! I WANT TO PROVE MYSELF! and I AM GONNA WORK HARD FOR EVERYTHING I WANT!
Focus during the practices, and not talk. I will sing with all my heart.

THAT's what we need. We don't need a great singer who has no heart and feelings, or no determination. What we need is that attitude and spirit to want to GET WHAT WE WANT. NO MATTER WHAT IT TAKES, as a team. And i througly believe, we can do it! And we will!

So let's look forward to choir, and really just sing with everything, for EACH AND EVERY PRACTICE. And, since we have a really senior section, encourage the other sections to focus! And...when we go on stage., JUST SING! don't look at the audience and freak out like we did on speech day(i did too..:/);..Just GO AND SING! not like last SYF where some of us shrunk...SING WITH EVERY THING YOU HAVE GOT..and just focus on MS ONG. SING LIKE THERE's no TOMOROW!

Never give up my frens:> we can be a great section, and all of us know that. Now, let's just put what we know, on our hands, our lips, and our voice.

~Sing. Like there's no tomorow.~

Lovey dovey,
your sl.:>
