30th dec's concert was great (other than my damn-it-i'm-f-ing-angry-at-myself-cause-it-was-so-loud-which-spurred-me-to-sing-better-for-the-next-few-songs-mistake)

even though i kept complaining about practices being too tiring cause we had to sing for 2 choirs, i had alot of fun really. learning new songs, singing old ones, and listening to rhoda complain about the chorale gowns which, like what everyone else said makes us looks like aunties =/

a few of us actually already decided, hey nope, i'm not joining. but recently, i've decided to give it a lil more thought cause its not as bad as what many say really. i realised vjchoir played a really huge part in my life for the past 3 1/2 years. and if i really decide not to join chorale, it'll be like losing a connection to alot alot alot of exciting things. i'll be meeting less choir people. i'll be doing less proper singing with the correct technique(that's assuming i've been using the correct one). i'll have less esplanade passes in my collection hehhh. i'll have less motivation to lose weight trying to fit in my gown. i'll see less of mr kwei :( . i'll hear less nice music cause i'm not those who will go youtube choral music unless i'm singing it. i'll miss siglap and i'll miss eating oldchangkee currypuffs even though i know i shouldn't be. i'll miss so many things that i haven't realise. well who knows, if i stop going to siglap, i might miss that big guy who stinks =Pp.

it wouldn't be as fun if no one from our batch joins. its just different when each batch experiences different things. my batch will never forget what happened in wales. just like how the previous batch will remember italy forever. the fun times are always when we reminisce the past together. like "hey remember blahblahblah, ohman its so stupid". i just did that with sophia the other day when we were literally walking around in circles at raffles city waiting for eliz. (: it was sweet. sophia said, i wonder who from our batch will come back and carol next time. and haha maybe we'll bring our kids or something. ohh damn if we're pregnant we can't fit into the gown. hahahaha. its only wishful thinking unless we still make the effort to remember it in our lives. i will.

so i've decided(and maybe bang as well?). i'll join, but it doesn't matter if i'm not like a permanent super-enthu member. i'll go for their projects if i can just like cc and nono. but it'll be good to have this common thing so i won't forget what this choir gave me, what i've learnt, so quickly. (: and like what a super-alumni told me, try to get more people to join cause they need new bloods. cause people will slowly leave eventually. if new batches stop joining, will it disappear one day? i won't want that to happen. i don't want to see a reunion at raffles with only vjchoir on its own. so i know i'll be there and i know more people will be too.

people who aren't committed choir members won't understand this bond we have with vjchoir, cause its really a different choir. its like our family to so many of us. we spend so much time with each other, so much that you can't imagine. we create music that make people cry, music that entertains, music that makes people shout encore(not always). some music we make makes people sleep too. haha. we could never have achieved this if we didn't share the same goal, if we didn't have a bond. even if there are people who kept saying "i hate choir", they love it deep in their heart cause choir gave them so many great friends. (: and i love mr kwei cause he let me in and gave me this chance to experience so much. (:
