16 days to syf
The committee is truly disappointed today. the reason is very obvious. why do you guys have to do this? 16days to syf. Tomorrow is your diudiudang auditions. We dont want to see anyone failing your auditions that was why we were drilling on DDD today. but you guys didn take sectionals seriously and fooled around during mass singing. We dont enjoy scolding you as much as you feel getting scolded. its VERY IRRITATING to repeat ourselves over and over again. today's practice was suppose to end at 5pm latest. but we ended at 6.15pm look at how much time we have wasted? Don't know what is the problem with you guys. we spoke very nicely, tell you nicely that you are singing wrongly, rhythm wrong. dont even get me started on facial expressions. And then you took our kindness for granted. WHY! you tell me. 16days. that is about 2weeks away. You dont feel anxious we do you know, we dont want to be that CCA that is always being looked down on anymore. We want to shine and show the school that Damai choir is no ordinary choir. But you guys are not doing your part in fufiling this common goal that we have. we asked you guys what you wanted to acheive. you said SILVER. but today's standards. C>O>P. certifcate of participation=no CCA points. IS THAT WHAT YOU GUYS WANT? We remind you time and time again about 1.DYANMICS. 2.PITCHING/COLOUR OF YOUR VOICE. 3. FACIAL XPRESSIONS. 4. BODY LANGUAGE (SMILE AND BE INTERESTED IN TH SONG) 5. RHYTHM/TEMPO. Are theses so hard to acheive? you guys could do it on monday, why not today? why not maintain that standard and improve? can you guys please stop looking so tired? the break for most of you were long enough. especially the lower secondary. spare a thought for the upper secondary that had to rush immediately after lessons for choir sessions. some of them didnt even had the chance to eat. and if you guys think that you are tired while the committees are not. you are soooooo wrong. we are normal students we are not superwomen. we didnt even had a proper lunch. immediately after school we had to rush up to AV theatre to prepare for sectionals. We dont expect you guys to thank us but ONLY to PUT IN EFFORT IN SINGING AND NOT GIVE US THE LOOK THAT WE OWE YOU A LIVING. WE DONT OWE YOU A LIVING. Ask you guys practice at home. YES YES YESSS, the next practice sing like crap again. nevermind, we refresh your memory. guide you through. but still? GIVE US RUBBISH SINGING. do you guys even went home to practice? you guys always commit the same mistakes. CAN YOU GUYS STOP BEING SO LAZY IN LETTING US SPOON FEED YOU GUYS WITH YOUR NOTES IN BETWEEN OF SONGS. AND ASKING YOU TO LIFT YOUR FACE AND THE DYNAMICS? ITS VERY ANNOYING. VERY. IF THIS KIND OF SIMPLE THINGS YOU GUYS CANT EVEN DO. I SEE NO POINT IN JOINING SYF THIS YEAR. IM OUT OF IDEAS TO MAKE YOU GUYS SING OUT LOUD, PRODUCE GOOD DYNAMICS, LISTEN OUT TO ONE ANOTHER. you put yourselves in our shoes. what will you do if you were us. how were you feel if you were the one leading your cca to a competition and you end up getting a COP? tell me how will you feel if you have everyone constantly asking you ''how is your cca doing? what award will your cca get? hows your standard?'' PEOPLE. PLS WAKE UP. ITS 30 MARCH. OUR SYF IS ON 15 APRIL. THAT IS 16 DAYS AWAY. WE GOT NO TIME OR THE LUXURY TO TAKE OUR OWN SWEET TIME TO IMPROVE. If you guys stilll dont want to sing out. im sure we are going to get COP. that is going to be unfair to those that are constantly putting in effort in singing and attending all choir practices. im sure you dont want those people to hate you and regret joining choir right? PLEASE BE MORE CONSIDERATE. STOP BEING A BLACK SHEEP. dont test my patience. there is a limit of nonsense i can tolerate. One more time you guys give me this crappish singing. IM GOING TO MAKE YOU REGRET YOUR ACTIONS. i had been giving you guys too many chances. i always tried to refrain from scolding you guys, cause i know it will ruin the relationship between us. i always joke and play with you. hoping that will make you happier in choir and feel wanted in choir. apparently you guys took it for granted. i hope you guys will sing better tmr. We"ve got no time to lose. 16days. 10 minutes on stage. 1 chance. DONT FAIL ME TOMORROW. (you guys said it yourself. if you piss us of by singing wrongly=20 pushups.) MEAN WHAT YOU SAY AND CARRY IT OUT. DO IT ONCE, DO IT RIGHT, GET OVER AND DONE WITH. YOU DONT HAVE TO SUFFER FROM OUR SCOLDINGS. OK? DONT DISAPPOINT US ANYMORE.. PRACTICE TONIGHT. DYNAMICS, ENTRY PONTS, BREATHING POINTS, PITCING AND FACIAL EXPRESSIONS. sharleen 30 march 2011.

21 Days Left
Hello:D
Finally its the weekend,hows the first week of term 2???For those who have fallen sick,please take care of your health and rest well over the weekend,I hope to see the number of people sitting at the back drop on Monday.21 days left,if you do not recover by then,how are you going to sing for SYF?For those who have been sick for the past few weeks,you guys have miss out on a lot of singing,so please take care of your health.
Can you guys stop complaining,its very irritating.We just make you guys stand to sing the songs for a few times,and after a while,we hear you complaining that your feets are arching.You're not the only one standing right,if others don't complain then can you stop complaining.On the day of SYF,you have to walk around in heels the whole day,if you can't even stand still with school shoes,how are you going to walk or stand a whole day with heels?
The points Mr Wong went through with us yesterday,its not his first time going through them right,example the breathing points for BUTTERFLY,how many times did he repeat when to sing and when not to sing.I really hope that you guys will take time to study your scores over the weekend.
As for your attendance,why is it that other schools can produce better attendance then us?Why do Mr Wong have to come each week and question us about our attendance,by now he should be focusing on our pieces,and not our attendance.I really hope that you guys will reflect on this.
And for the people who turn up,thank you,we really appreciate it.However,I hope that you will give your all for the practice,since your already there,can you try your best to make improvements and remember the points that we told you to take note of,and not repeat them.
21 days left,I hope that we won't spend it scolding you,on things that we have told you before,your attendance,or your attitude.You guys said that you wanted to attain at least a silver,I really hope that you will put in more effort into your singing.We must prove to others that we can do it,don't let them look down on us.Lets all work together to achieve our goal,I know we can do it:)

okay hello choir.
yea i know what most of you guys dont like the tone were talking in today. i dont like it too. the leaders dont like it too.
but the leaders are really at lost already.
just look around. without the sec1s, how many people turned up today?.. a pathetic number of 29.
yes, out of 45 people. thats ONLY HALF. why?
i really dont know what to do to make you guys realise the importance of syf.
today's combined school rehearsal, went smoothly, and we would like to THANK LOYANG SECONDARY SCHOOL FOR BEING SUCH WONDERFUL HOST , AND AND MR WONG FOR ARRANGING THIS AWESOME EVENT! -CLAPSCLAPS- :D
anyways i PROUD OF YOU GUYS BECAUSE BUTTERFLY WAS BEAUTIFULLY SANG TODAY! yay!!!!
but still dont be proud, there is always room for improvement. lots of room for improvement.
but still goooood effort :)
mrwong (conductor) had to tell us where we went wrong in front of the other school choirs, dont you guys feel embarassed?
the wind, not much comments but the actions must be more obvious! like how RIVERSIDE DID IT. it is nice as a whole when everyone sways together. but still we have only learnt yeasterday and have not broken out of the -shyshy- barrier, but im sure with more practice, you guys will automatically sway without us queing you in to sway.
diudiudangah. that was a messy song that we sang today. im sure you can hear it.
so please spent some time practicing your parts at home. we willl try to do up the recording of the songs and send to you guy asap so that you can practice at home. we will work on the rhythmic part on monday.
rest your voice well. we only left with 28days, 10 sessions.
we cannot afford to have people falling sick, you guys heard mrwong right?
cut down on your intake of fried food and cold water. rest your voice. just for 1month.
and you guys heard during mr wong mun wai's debrief. where our standard lies.. C.O.P.
yes that is the worst case scenario. and no choir in singapore is aiming for that award.
i know, you know, we all know. how well we can sing when we want to.
you guys sounded like angels decending from heaven before, i believe that you guys can go back to that standard again right?
i have absolute faith and trust in you guys, so dont dissapoint the leaders, the choir and the teachers.
monday please remember to bring along your shoes with your names on the boxes, meet outside the music room at 3pm. read huiyin's post below mine!
i really hope that those that are stil in the relax mode, you guys would wake up from today's talk. its already 18 MARCH 2011. our syf is on 15 APRIL 2011. it will come in no time.
cherish every second you spend in choir, and do things quickly without us hurrying you.
if you guys do things FAST AND RIGHT we wont have to nag at you guys.
practice more at home, take note of dynamics, tempo and FACIAL EXPRESSION
and dont dissapoint us anymore.

Hello!!!!!!
Thanks for all the effort you guys put in today.
As you guys have heard what Mr Wong said during the debrief. I know that you guys don't want to get a C.O.P.
right,you guys work so hard all this months, I think we can get something better than a C.O.P.
But overall,I feel that you guys did improve on Butterfly, keep up the good work, a little more practice and it will sound better.
Oh yeah, for those who did not come today, I want to tell you guys that we are very disappointed with you,even the sec1s attendance is better than you guys and they are your juniors!!!What is this!!!
Did you know that most of you who skip today are seniors and are ALL in SYF.Especially the sop 2s,do you know that the entire first row of sop 2s are missing(excluding the sec 1s who turn up) and some from the back row.
Because of this the sop 2s had a very difficult time when we combined.You guys have also missed out on a lot of things today,for your info,most of the other schools were better than us and especially their members attendance which was wayyyy better than ours.
They did not have any sec1s joining them and they were able to sing even better than us.Mr wong even had to explain to them why there are many absentees.
He did not have any attendance problem with his other choir at all,I really hope that those who did not turn up today will reflect about your attitude.
For those who came today,well done,I hope that you guys have learnt some things from today's exchange and also put in your best efforts for every practices:)
LET US ALL WORK HARD TOGETHER TOWRDS OUR GOAL!!!(28 more days left till SYF)

DEAR CHOIR~
yes tomorrow is our performance, so i'm sure you guys dont want to be embarassed in front of other schools right? so pls, look through your scores before you sleep so that your mind is refreshed with the things that mr wong mentioned today!
and also pls rmb to bring along your syf shoes 7.40am in canteen, including the boys!
and PLS PLS PLS stop making mr wong repeat himself when he is teaching. and also PLS PLS PLS improve your self-discipline. i know you guys are tired from the packed holiday practices, homework, remedials etc. but remember that everyone else is also busy. you are not the only one..
and pls ah can all of you guys put in effort to sing out loud, simple things like sitting up straight when you are sitting down, we should'nt be reminding you all theses.
stop being lazy and rely on the stronger singers to sing for you. thats not fair ok. we all play an important part. EVERY VOICE COUNTS. so can you guys try and by not looking letargic during choir and PAY ATTENTION of whats going on. you guys know, we are pressing for time.
especially the wind, when mr wong asks us to do the actions, i know you guys are shy. but still, even if you look like a clown, we are doing the same thing as you, so i dont see a valid reason for you to just stone there and be so selfish in ruining the song. just because you think that its embarassing. you know whats' embarassing? its that everyone is doing the movements except you. (you guys know who you are) please dont be a black sheep.
we really have very very very little time left to fool around. have less than a month left. 29more days. 29..
we really got no time to lose.
this syf. like what mdm nor said. its the only competition we have.
yes, the only one.
it is improtant to me, you, the teachers, the school and mr wong. everyone that is putting in alot effort and pinning hopes on us. DONT DISAPPOINT US. anymore.
so guys, i really need you guys to put in 101% focus, effort and commitment until syf is over.
you guys want to boast that choir finally got silver and not maintain a bronze right?
also lastly.. ATTENDANCE.
how many times must i repeat myself?
this is our crucial period. we dont have enough time on our side.
and we have 14 people missing today. with more than half that didnt even informing us the reason why. why is this so?
you guys do know that syf is 29 days away. and yet.
and yet you guys can skip choir sessions without feeling guilty?
can you dont be so selfish? imagine how much time we practice in choir while you are out there playing. how much effort we have put through while you werent there to contribute.
i shall make my stand clear this time. yes i admit. the excos have been very leneint with attendance.
we always say say say but never carry out punishment, why? cause we thought you guys are mature enough. BUT I GUESS YOUR ACTIONS PROVE US WRONG.
PLS. im sick and tired of hearing excuse like ''im sick'' ''my tuition last minute postpone'' ''i forgot got choir practice''
IM SICK OF HEARING ALL THOSE. cant you come up with a better tactic?
hmph. so please. those people out there.
stop being selfish.
we do feel guilty for scolding you guys.
we also want to be on good and better terms with you guys, play and joke around. who likes to be hated right?
but we dont have a choice, if we dont scold you, you guys wont listen.
the more we say things nicely, the more you guys turn a deaf ear on us and take things for granted.
if you guys sang well (like monday) and improved your discipline, no doubt. no doubt we wont scold you and of course praise you. no one likes to be the bad guy right?
on a lighter note.. tomorrow have more ENERGY! im sure by now you would have received sms from some exco members. show that we are worthy of the name,damai choir!!
OH YA, remember to say hi to the other school choirs! :)
"" LIVE LONG AND PROSPER!!!""
-rock on!-

hi dearest members~
anyways, here something to remember about for today's session: ( ENJOY!)
so what do you think of your singing?
well from what the committee heard there was an improvement from last week so good job!
however dont be complacent we got to MAINTAIN AND IMPROVE!
IT FEELS BETTER TO BE PRAISED THAN SCOLDED RIGHT? HAHS
im sure that you guys can sing even better on thursday to wow mr wong, so pls PRACTICE at home. we cant do much when the choir practices we have with you are so little and short.
and hey, i know that nowsadays some cca are like saying ''i pity choir'', ''choir sucks''. but im sure deep down in you thats not how you feel right? (hopefully thats not how you feel!!)
we did the friendship dance today and im sure most of you had enjoyed it right? :) ahahs -choir secret!- so dont be bothered by what others say. stay strong on your beliefs and enjoy the remaining time you spend in choir. and make the best out of it!
ok.. so discipline today, we can see an improvement but you guys keep forgetting to close the door! remember ah, last person close the door. if not all the air con will flow out then might as well switch off the air con right?
and you guys got to control being over talkative! i know its boring sometimes when other sections are being taught and your section has nothing to do.
you could listen for the leaders if they are singing the wrong note, note their facial expression, standing posture, or you can look at your score and revise the points that you have to take note. you can use your time more efficiently like this instead of chatting away, at the same time, it trains you to be more focus on the things you do. it can be applied on life! woots :)
and pls settle down as fast as possible so that the leaders dont have to raise our voice ok?
dont forget, you owe me 4 today :) muahhahs
ok, so basically my 2nd last thing is your singing today;
sop1s: wasnt that bad, but have to work on your pitching cause you tend to go sharp. especially butterfly and diu diu dang. work hard! :)
sop2s: hmm, you guys are the 2nd largest section in choir, doesnt mean more people you can slack and singing softer. thats a wrong concept ah! all the more you have to sing out. because altos and sop1s are very audible from far as the are singing high and low pitches compared to your middle-tone pitch you gotta sing louder than them in order to stand out, you guys are the harmonizer that balance the sound in choir, so if you are soft, sop1s will sing sharper and sharper, whereas altos will go flat. see you guys are important ok. so seniors pls coach and encourage your juniors! practice on all the songs! WORK HARDER!! :)
altos: not to bad, but you have to work on the timing on diu diu dang, especially when you start to change the tempo in the song in diu diu dang, and the high notes in butterfly. i notice some of you cant reach the notes. so what you can do at home is do some warm up. since all of us know the basic notes already, you can actually go online and search a piano on the internet and so some simple warm ups before you sing. other than that your performance today was alright :) practice more in your entry points!
overall:
a comment from mr wong mun wai was that you guys dont listen to other sections when you are singing, you guys are to concentrated on your parts until you have no idea when to come in until we play on the piano or when mr wong or belvy que you guys in.
so pls take a look at your scores and at which bar, after what section sing finnish of sing what note then you have to come in and sing your part. in that way it also lets you get farmilarised with the song and you can sing from any parts that we ask you to sing from. :)
SO LETS WORK HARD AS A WHOLE. AND ATTAIN OUR RIGHTLY DESERVED SILVER AND PROVE OTHERS WRONG.

( EDITED-TAKE NOT OF CHANGE IN TIMING FOR THIS MONDAY REPORTING TIME AND ENDING TIME !) HELLO CHOIR!!
i GOT THE SYF DATE AND TIME ALREADY!
you wont believe it. our syf is less than 40 days!
so yea, we will start a countdown from today onwards.
Also pls look more alive during choir sessions. I don't know what's the problem with you guys,everytime like no mood to sing. it makes us difficult to capture your attention and make you feel 'welcomed' in choir. and sing the songs in expressive ways.
you guys dont come to choir for the sake of coming, some of you even if you came, you still show us attitude then dont want to sing out loud. im getting really tired of reminding you guys about ur facial expressions, dynamics, when to breathe when not to breathe, attendance, discipline, initiative etc. but apparently you guys treat our scolding and reminders as wind passing by your ears and then say that we are too fierce, too strict, too naggy.
can you guys dont take us for granted? one day. ONE DAY, the committee wil be so pissed of until we will walk out of the room. We don't want your to really thank us for whatever that we do,but at least appreciate the efforts that we put in can?...
this monday, i hope that you guys will show improvement and higher standards of discipline and respect. you guys heard mdm nor on tues morning. we are your seniors and your friends at the same time, sometimes its really hard for us to scold you.
so pls stop making us scold you for the slightless thing such as ATTENDANCE. ok?
... anyways, please remember that monday practice starts at 8.30am TO 1PM in the music room. remmember to memorise all 3 songs by monday. i know you guys have camp, but please put in an effort! te job id done well on monday we will let you guys go earlier :)
i GOT THE SYF DATE AND TIME ALREADY!
you wont believe it. our syf is less than 40 days!
so yea, we will start a countdown from today onwards.
our syf date: 15april, 3.30pm slot. (4th day of syf )
it you realise it, its 37days more!
so please dearest members, practice yourself at home.
we just need to commit for this 37 days and after that we will enjoy the fruits of our labour!

Hello,hows everyone so far?
I hope that you guys have enjoyed your individual camps.
As you all already know there is practice on Monday,9am,in the music room.
I expect full attendance from everyone,except for those who have already told us your reasons.Practice from now on will be very tiring,and may be a little boring but you still have to put in your very best,ok!
We really do not have much time left till SYF,which is on 15 April(If I am correct).
I want full attendance from everyone for every practice,even sectionals.
Every practice is very important,we still have many things that we need to take note of and you guys are not up to standard yet so we need to practice as much as we can.
Other CCAs may look down on us,or feel that we will not be able to acheive the goal that we want,but lets prove them wrong.I know that you guys can do it,we can definitely do better than a bronze,we just have to put in more effort.
Please put in best for the practice on Monday.Also remember to bring $2 for the choir funds,sec ones included,pass it to Hui Shan.
*Memorise diu diu dang by Monday.
*Bring lunch money(just in case)

ALSO, WHATS' WITH THE ATTENDANCE TODAY? YOU DONT COME AND GO AS YOU PLEASE YOU KNOW? ESPECIALLY THOSE WITH VALID REASONS AND DIDNT INFORM THE COMMITTEE. WHY?? WE SAID ALOT OF TIMES RIGHT? IF YOU ARE UNABLE TO ATTEND, THE BASIC THING IS TO INFORM/TEXT/CALL US. THATS ALL.
AND THOSE, THAT REPEATEDLY SKIP, HOW MANY TIMES WE TOLD YOU ABOUT HOW IMPORTANT ATTENDANCE IS? IM SURE ITS MORE THAN 10 TIMES. IF YOU HAVE NOT WAKE UP. LET ME REMIND YOU. SYF IS 5 WEEKS AWAY. NOT 5 MONTHS. 5 WEEKS OKAY?!
WHEN WILL YOU GUYS WAKE UP AND REALISE ITS ONLY ONE SHOT. FOR SOME OF US, ITS OUR LAST SHOT. IM SURE YOU WANNA IMPRESS THE SCHOOL, BE ABLE TO GO HOME LIGHT-HEARTED AND ANNOUNCE TO THE WORLD PROUDLY OUR ACHEIVEMENTS RIGHT? IF YOU GUYS WANT THE GLORY YOU HAVE TO ACHEIVE IT. YES I KNOW, SYF PERIOD IS TOUGH. SOME SENIORS BEEN THROUGH THE PREVIOUS SYF. WE KNOW HOW TOUGH IT IS AND ALSO HOW MUCH FUN WE HAD ENJOYED OURSELVES. WITH MEMORIES THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET FOR THE REST OF OUR LIFES. IF YOU GUYS CONTINUE LIKE THAT, IM SURE MR WONG WILL GIVE UP ON YOU. THE COMMITTEE WOULD GIVE UP ON YOU TOO. BY THEN YOU ARE LEFT ON YOUR OWN. DO YOU WANT THAT TO HAPPEN? PLEASE AH. REFLECT..
ALSO, IM VERY SURE I VERBALLY AND WRITTEN ON THE BLOG TO ASK YOU GUYS TO PRACTICE AT HOME. YOU GUYS WORKED SO HARD IN THE PAST 5-6 MONTHS FOR WHAT? FOR JUST THAT 10 MINS ON STAGE TO SHOWCASE YOUR SINGING SKILLS. YOU DO NOT PUT IN EFFORT IN PERFECTING YOUR SINGING SKILLS, WHATS THERE TO SHOWCASE DURING SYF? HUH, YOU TELL ME?
WHY WAS SINGING THAT BAD TODAY? EVEN THOUGH IM NOT THERE, I HEARD FROM THE OTHER EXCO THAT NOT ONLY SINGING WAS BAD, DISCIPLINE IS WORST. PLEASE AR, WE ARE YOUR SENIORS, MUCH LESS EXCO. I THINK WE DESERVE MORE RESPECT FROM YOU GUYS, IF WE CAN RESPECT YOU I DONT SEE THE REASON WHY YOU CANT RESPECT US. I SAID ALOT OF TIMES, WE TALK YOU LISTEN, YOU TALK WE LISTEN. WHY IS IT THAT HUIYIN HAD TO SHOUT AND RAISE HER VOICE TO CAPTURE YOUR ATTENTION TODAY? HUH, WHY?? i WANT YOU GUYS TO REFLECT TODAY'S INCIDENT. OKAY?
I KNOW THAT SOME OF YOU ARE ASKING ABOUT THE CHOIR TIMINGS FOR THE HOLIDAYS. THE COMMITTEE IS ALREADY ASKING THE TEACHER. WE WILL GET BACK TO YOU SOON AND WILL POST ON THE BLOG AND THE BOARD.

Hahahas.
Hey Choir!! :D:D
Belvy here. :D
Well, let's talk about today's singing.
Its, okay, but we still have LOADS LOADS LOADS to improve on.
Remember, try to stop eating those fried food and stop drinking soft drinks.
Please do.
And, when other sections are singing, do not talk or make unnecessary noise.
Why is it that you guys still talk no matter how many times we tell you to keep quiet?
Well, I don't want to scold, but please remember this rule. :D
Next, the choir exchange programme is very important.
We musn't make a fool of ourselves, okay? :D
Let's do our ultimate best for every choir practice and achieve our goal.
Which is GOLD yeah? :D
Jiayous jiayous jiayous. :D
And also, please have some manners.
Whenever you leave the choir room, remember to close the choir door. :D
Thanks. :D
Don't let the aircon escape. :D
Kambatteh. :D
