happiness ((=

yup proud to say that WE DID IT
NJ GUITAR ENSEMBLE - GOLD WITH HONOURS !!! (19/04/07)

haha, we rocked (=
everybody made this possible, every single one of us (=
glad that i took the initiative and that bit of courage to join syf
and i certainly did not regret it!
at least all the late nights staying back to practice, all the numb and peeling fingertips, all the motivational speeches by pres and SLs, just all the sacrifice was worth it!!
now that syf is over, i kinda miss it now )= feels as though my life is very empty now, no more staying back late, no more chatting to guitar mates. the feeling is really bad )= no wonder i end up feeling out of place and emo most of the time. haha.
anw did the video thingy today (= think mine was the worse of all though )= haha, just hope this will surprise/ touch the pres, conductor and SLs. and on a lighter note, there's guitar tml!! yay!!

so last sat was the yfc interview. i guess we were overly prepared, as we expected to be led into a room and do a formal presentation. thus, we did up cue cards and practised rehearsing for many times, haha. thank god we didn't do ppt slides, otherwise it would be even more awkward. so it was a mass interview held at the the hall whereby many groups were being interviewed at the same time. i guess we did ok (= initially the judges weren't really interested for they gave us the impression that they were so bored =/ lol, however, after a while, they became more interested in our project, and i guess they were amazed at how close we were working with yellow ribbon, as well as how deep we have analyzed the project. so all in all, i heard them saying 'good', haha. so am waiting for good news!!



it sucks that u don't even bother...

almost there...

wow, haven't been here for around two weeks. had been pretty much busy these past few days. syf is just next week, exactly one week more man. anyway today's practice was very much fruitful and productive. we played our best and managed to sway with the music (= what the president said today also stirred up my emotions. she said that it is not all about getting the silver , gold or gold w/ honours. it is about doing the composer justice by giving our best. this made me think about how necessary it is to have such a competition. hmm... she also gave us a lot of encouragement and motivation, and i was sort of touched la. hopefully everyone in guitar ensemble feel the same way as i do and give off their very best in this last stretch. we can do it, as long as we believe in ourselves. and we will do it as a whole ensemble.

submitted the yfc proposal just last week. put in a lot of time and effort into that as well. prays hard that we get selected, otherwise all our effort will go down the drain! no idea when the results will be out though, but am hoping for the best!
