haiz..now life is apparently extremely sian.
choir will be leaving for russia in abt 9 days? i will be missing so many practices which is doomed for choir and me. I just dun see TK choir getting the 9th best choir in the world..even in 5 yrs time, which was the original plan. tk choir quality now is barely a third of the SYF team. We split the team into 4 rows and everything is screwed..no tune, wrong notes, sharp, flat, no rhythm...it sounds like tone-deaf ppl are singing..i tink only row 1 was the most presentable..only a few off keys. thats coz most of the Sls and SCswere there.
Basses entire first row was that way. Leaving the Sec 1, 2 n 3 in the other rows. basses sec 3s are disappointing, cant expect much from lower sec. then push all the way back to row 4..only sec 4 there as the pitcher. im suppose to suply CORRECT notes to the almost hopeless row 2 and 3, albeit a few individuals. if i supply wrong notes and no one corrects, then the whole choir will be off tune coz, basses are like the base for other sections to get their notes...so in short GG. I miss Felix standing next to me..for the past three yrs, he was the one giving me my notes and correcting me...im doing a lousy job as a pitcher now... STRESSED!
So as i was saying..we will be bringing the competition to Russia. Europe and espiecially the small countries near Russia, are world famous for thie choir..top few are from there. the other time, back in sec 1, a small Estonia's Childrens's TV Choir popped by the regional choir competition Voyage Of Songs, orginally meant for SEA choirs, and top every category they participated, took the competition by storm, become the top choir in that competition. Imagine, now we are going there, where choirs a whole lot better are competing...total ownage for TK choir..SOMEONE BLESS US!

so it is now the June Holidays...or what it is "supposed to be" these two weeks..is mad. Lessons everyday up to 6pm. even longer than curriculum time..its like wtf lah. after sch 2pm dnt or choir. each time i pon one of it i feel bad..yet both equally important. just too pressed for time to make anyone happy. now my dnt tcher tinks i am not interested in dnt, and my choir tinks i am not interested in Russia too. sian, each time i pon, i go through a major headache. added with tuition and other reasons, im even more pressed for time.
further more, due to my results, i am now on supposed study streak. no more computer, and must sit outside to study, with my sis sitting with me to supervise me..like wtf. and im not allowed to slp any earlier than 12am. so its extremely tired for me everyday nonstop.
all in all, i tink the "press for time" stress is the worst of all..coz it realise is leading to alot more stress from others..like friends.
