Meridian Junior College Choir Presents
"La Risonanza III"
MJChoir Rocks!!! Woohoo!! Their concert was great!! My juniors did well and sang well! Their hard work really paid off man! MJChoir Alumni made their debut yesterday too and I guess we did well too. Although not really great, but at least we sang as an alumni! woohoo! I am so glad that i joined them for the concert. I had thoughts of redrawing from the performance initially as I wasn't sure if I am ready. But God has guided me and there i was, standing in front of the audience with the alumni singing my hearts out! We were rather nervous back stage before the concert. But we prayed together, encouraged each other and had fun together. It was really hard for us as we only got full strength a few days before the concert but we did it anyway. Sigh... How I wish the alumni would continue to grow and one day we will have a full choir.
Yesterday's concert really made me thought back about my past as a choir. Standing up there in the circles seat, watching my juniors perform the musical, made me think about the ups and downs the choir had gone through for the past two years when I was there. I really hoped that I could be part of them again! Sigh... But time has indeed pass so quickly and here I am, serving NS. Somehow, thinking back about the concert now makes me miss the choir even more... haha... Anyway, the choir has grown both in strength and standard and that is definitely a good thing and I am so happy for them!! By the way, I must really thank those who came for the concert. Especially DY, Alan, Andre and Andy!!! The four of them rushed over from Tekong just to support me and I am so touched! It's really very nice of them to come down to support me but too bad, they have to leave after first half. Oh well, really glad to know that they can make it. Of course not forgetting Chase! Lim Kian Heng for his beautiful flower and Choon for being there. haha...
Oh well, for the past few days, I've been attending this storeman course at Sembawang Camp. Gosh! It is a totally new environment for me. The people there are mostly smokers and most of them are from ITE. Not that I have anything against them but I really can't stand their behaviour in class and even when they march! Aiyooo!! Never in my life have I ever been to such a noisy class! Haha... But the instructors there are super nice and there is one more day left before the course ends. So I might as well bear with it. Haiz... This is my very first time missing Tekong! haha... The food at Sembawang is really very very very un-appetising. The place really makes me feel demoralised. I think I am too attached to my office.... Haiz... I will be back soon anyway and now I don't mind sitting the ferry to and fro anymore... haha...
Okay. Enough of my rantings. I really have to thank God for guiding me through this far! I thank him for all the wonderful memories that he has showered upon me and most importantly, thank him for being there for me all the time when I needed him. Praise God!
