Hi choir, its me again :) Today's combine rehearsal was SUPER HORRIBLE and your behaviour wasn't up to my expectation. Same goes with your singing. Well i think it's partially because today we sang with the other choirs so it feels kinda awkward and our discipline went down the drain. Let me remind you again! We're left with two more rehearsal! Two more rehearsal!!!!!! We can't afford to drop our standard especially at this time! We're a SILVER CHOIR!! I BELIEVE THAT YOU CAN DO MUCH MORE BETTER THAN THIS!! Tomorrow i want you all to be better singers and don't care about what other choirs think of you, okay!?!
Things to take note: 1) Less talk, more action
2) When Mr Wong is talking, you do not talk!
3) Vowels
4) Facial expressions
5) Dynamics ( for all songs)
I guess that you all know this simple things already since you've heard them a lot of times. But i find it neccessary to keep reminding you... So i expect good behaviour and awesome performance. Ohya, another reminder, report school at 7.30!! See ya tomorrow!! :)

Hi choir , guess what ?
Todays practice was NOT GOOD . Not good at all . What happened to you guys seriously ? How can you do this when its the last practice together ? I dont understand this at all . Do you want to reach our goal or not ? You're suppose to be improving not deproving ! And your singing and discipline today was definitely unacceptable .
Your singing today as you all know was pretty horrible . Tell me , what happened ? Did you guys even practice and try to memorise the songs ? Why choir ? Why was there a drastic deprovement at the most crucial times like this ?
And your discipline . Back to bad . There can never be total silence whenever someone is speaking can it ? There just have to be annoying murmurings everywhere . Every single time you know . For once lah , please keep your mouth shut when someone is speaking . And do not interrupt okay .
Please also follow instructions quickly . Dont take your own sweet time . Quickly do it and get it over and done with .
I know today was extremely tiring and stressful . But we wouldnt need to go through this much pain if we could just practice , listen and look at the conducting right ? Because of our awful singing , we have to do sectionals tomorrow which i know we all dont want . So please sing properly tomorrow if you dont wanna stay back unnecessarily again .
How many days left to the concert ? 5 .
How many practices left ? 3 .
Not much time left you know . We have to buck up and perfect everything by then . Time is precious people so dont waste it on stuff we already know . Dont keep repeating the same mistakes .
Please just give it your all and really work hard towards our goal for these final laps .
Make us proud . Make the school proud . Make the people who supported you all these while proud . Cos at the end of the day we do not want to regret anything and feel that our hard work was wasted .
And please try your very best to sell the tickets . Mr Wong had put in soo much effort in this upcoming concert and hk and you dont wanna dissapoint him right ? He used his own money for most of the expenses leh ! Dont you feel any sympathy at all ? He's trying so hard and he doesnt really expect much back . The least we could do is to sing right .
And as for our dancing , yay we finished everything ! Now its time to perfect them . We're almost there Choir . You can do it ! Remember to sing along & smileee .
And remember no more fried food . Drink more water and take care of your health . Choir tomorrow 3pm at music room . Bring the neccessary items . see ya n_n

Hello :) I'm elena.
Just to inform you guys, We've read through the feedback! Although almost all you said the same thing, we've got the message that you guys are trying to send to us and we'll work on the feedback! To clarify some stuff, please try to understand that although we can be strict, we can also be fun! As for the strict time-frame, i do agree that trainings are abit long, just to let you know the committee always comes one hour earlier than you guys and stay back one hour later than you guys. But in any case, this strict time-frame's only for our preparation for the concert (please inform your parents that this is our crucial period, so we may all go home slightly later)
But we'll make sure we practice what we preach. So from now on, I (yes your chairman) vow that every committe member will practice what we preach! or we'll do 5 pushups for every-one broken!!
Alright, today we did lots dancing in our pretty yellow dresses. Note: I feel that we'll look really amazing up there on the stage twirling and dancing under the spotlights :). But having a good outlook isn't all, we've got to make sure that we're made of good stuff. (Not as if this hasn't been emphasized enough) Dancesteps Dancesteps Dancesteps! Let's all work hard together and perfect our steps! (i'm practicing mine after this, i swear)
I'm sure you guys can see how passionate Carinda and Murni are in putting the whole dance together and passing it down to everyone, so let's not disappoint them both, nor the teachers, mr Wong, our supporters or those who believe in us (eg. seniors) alright??
Right now, we've covered 75% of the special item. Remaining 25% you may ask? That's the passion, enthusiam and effort from all of us (if you're willing to put them in) . One week left to our concert, and i can't make it any more obvious that it's the crucial period for all of us. We either make it, or break it and the hard truth is that, it's all in our hands. Friends/classmates/schoolmates that look down on choir or you? Well let me tell you, put up a good performance and that's gonna let us leave with new found glory and respect gained.
Always remember our goal: To have an amazing and successful concert !!!
The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams- Eleanor Roosevelt
** Remember to bring your dress,gown and heels this thursday. Dress and gown to be washed,ironed and hanged :) Check your heels! if need be, send them to a coblar :) **

Hello choir!
This is Jiaqi speaking! :)
Today we kicked off our choir practice with aiming towards a common goal: which is to have a 'more-than-extreme' successful show for both the year end concert and the hongkong trip! All the hard work we're putting in now is to make us more prepared and confident on stage. And of course, show people the power of Damaivoicez! So please please please put in 101% in these very few choir practices. We've came a long way and now is definitely not the time to slacken off!
Discipline was good today; all of you did not talk much when Mr Wong was going through the songs and even when taking out scores, the noise level was acceptable. However, even though there was not much commotion, you all need to pay more attention as I can see some of you spacing out and not coming in when you are supposed to.
Today's singing was not bad either! But as usual, there NEEDS to be improvement. Do not anticipate and wait for others to come in. You have to be very sure of all your scores and do start memorizing the rest of songs (Still I Rise etc.) as well. Also, do take note of your posture(backs straight, do not slouch) and facial expressions. I have seen a drastic regression(opposite of improvement) in this two components since SYF, so please take note as it does affect your singing greatly.
As for our special item, please put in effort to practice that too. It is our very own time to shine so we must also show our best in this section also! There will be a dance audition tomorrow so please practice it tonight. If you do not pass them, you will have to stay back for the rest of the practice to work on it. A gentle reminder to bring your dresses and heels tomorrow. :D
No more consumption of fried food for the upcoming days and take good care of your throat! :) We are left with only two more practices so please try not skip any of it. Thank you very much.
Choir starts at 11AM tomorrow. Please be on time if not, you know the rules!
See you! :)

Hello people who wear tee shirts to choir. Just wanna be clear on some things.
If you think that dancing for the special item is wasting your time, then I'm very sorry to hear. We spent hours and hours staying back late after choir just to think of de best, nice and easier dance steps for everyone. And if you think that it's easy to choreograph the dance then we will gladly take in advice from you. If you have any suggestion, your are free to do so. If you want this concert to work out, all of you will then have to give your very best and be hyper and look alive! So we will look fantastic on stage. If you're embarrassed that we're dancing on stage and becoming all Stone-full, then the more people will comment about us. If we look happy and enjoying ourselves, then will be happy for us too. Hope you guys can understand.
From starting of next week, NO MORE FRIED FOOD. I know all of us ate it too. Well maybe not all, but no more fried food from next week onwards until the hong kong performance is over. After the performance, in hong kong, you can eat all the wonderful hong kong food. Yay. Woohs
Don't wanna see anyone going to any fastfood restaurants during the lunch breaks next week.
Okay. Now. Please watch your discipline. I'm sure we've said this thousands of times and yet no one respects our presence. If anything you're not sure about, you can always raise up and your hand and ask. If you're sick or not able to do certain activities, you guys can always tell us. Dont just keep quiet cause you may interrupt the momentum of our progressing.
Also when Mr Wong is teaching us or telling us something, please give him full attention and stop chit chatting. Only yesterday after the seniors came in, I can hear the air con running. There was total 'silence' . Guess you guys love them so much :(
Only if you give him your attention and maintain discipline, everything will fall into place. Like yesterday for example, you guys were quiet, listening to him and you guys sang really well and we're all impressed. I like the fact that you guys are respecting your seniors ALOT but please also respect Mr Wong and Us.Please also control your usage of hand phones in choir. Guess we are all addicted to the technology nowadays? Now is a critical period where the stress will be coming along but we're in this together. SO LET'S WORK HARD NOW! AND WE CAN PLAY HARDER LATER!
BYes. Tag NOW on the choir blog and like or comment on FB. Anything you wanna talk about you may leave a comment on the chatbox in the choir blog. Yay. Remember to report outside music room at 11am and for those, black files, your song thingy and necessary stationeries.

Hello choir. Elena here!
G-double O-D-J-O-B GOODJOB *CLAP CLAP* GOODJOB *CLAP CLAP* We did a lot of dancing today and yes we're getting there. We're so close but we're just not there yet. So, we're gonna need everyone's co-operation!! (the basics: no interruption, respect the person talking by not talking and looking at the person while he/she is speaking, bring all necessary stuff for choir and respect the conductor).
Please practice the dance at home! Especially if you always have to look/rely on someone else to get the steps right. When you dance: Wide, exaggerated and confident movements. This means that no looking at one another, SMILE (for goodness sake, enjoy your limelight on stage!!) , and dance with lots of power and speed alright! I'm happy that you guys are more alive during light up the world! ( I really like it when you guys smile and dance care-freely!!) We'l gonna work on issues on confidence once we've learnt all the steps! We only have 3 practices till the combined rehearsal. Time is running out , and its running out fast. So we gotta keep improving like how we are now!
Okay, Although the special item is important, the main bulk of the concert is also our singing, so do go home and Practice your songs!! Memorize the Lyrics/know your parts extremely well for : Aka Toenbo, Hear the music, The wind (SAB) and keeping the dream alive!! everyone MUST pass the auditions this thursday!! We've already made it this far, just put in that little effort and we'll be better than awesome on our big day :)) Sing for your parents/siblings/friends/mirror wherever, whenever you can!! It's our time to shine people. It's our time to show the world what we're made off!!! okay!!
Cya guys 1.30pm-5.30pm this thursday at the music room! >:) bye!

Remembrance day
Hello choir! Carinda here. If i'm not wrong, tomorrow is remembrance day? But to remember what, i have no idea. So today we did the dance. If we were a bit too harsh, i apologize. But the pressure of the concert nearing is really making me paranoid and scared. So i hope you guys won't freak out. Also, don't stop selling your tickets. Even after you've finished selling all your 6, continue to promote the concert and get more tickets from Mr Wong :)
Today at the start of choir, Elena had a talk with you guys didn't she? I hope all of you guys remember what you have promised and continue to work hard for choir! Don't make Mr Wong angry again. It sure wasn't pleasant seeing him flare up was it? :/ So pay a lil' more attention, talk a lil' less. Things won't go wrong :) watch your discipline, we don't want rudeness/talking back.
Remember to memorise the songs Mr Wong asked you to. You don't want to embarass yourself by singing the wrong things etc right? ^^
Last but not least, PRACTICE YOUR DANCE. Especially the crucial 2nd row. You guys are always not coming together and we need to improve that. Be sure of where you're supposed to come in. Raise questions when you're in doubt, don't just stand there and keep doing the wrong things over and over again. We won't bite when you ask questions. Just make sure you don't ask redundant questions ok?
We have implented new rules and in case you forget, here are the more crucial ones.
1) Late, do 5 push ups immediately. No hum or haws. You have to do it.
2) Greet the seniors before and after practice.
3) No rudeness.
4) 101% commitment.
5) Produce MC for absence.
YOU CAN DO IT CHOIR. We are one big family. Never be shy to voice out whether it is in choir practice, the facebook page, or the tagboard here.
WE LOVE YOU GUYZ.
I don't want anyone skipping any practices. The following practices are extremely extremely crucial. Like Elena said, we only have 7 PRACTICES TO OUR CONCERT. And approximately 20 days only. Make use of those days. Practice hard, reap the benefits ^^
See you guys on Monday!

See you guys on Monday!

Hey CHOIR!!! Haha! Syafiqah here :) This is my very first post after so long. Miss me? Hehe... So today's practice was okay but still not up to EXPECTATION!!! There's still more improvements to be made. OKAY!! Altos was AWESOME today!! Haha! Sopranos were awesome too :) As you know today's dance practice was... You know what i mean... I no need to say this again.... I just dont understand why everytime you dance as a whole... You become messy.... you must listen to the beat of the song and stop looking at others!! You must be sure of your dance move cos you all are awesome gals!! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF FOR GOODNESS SAKE! Sigh.... Oh, your discipline wasn't good... You keep talking and talking all the time... Why like this huh?!? Is it so important? I also realize that some of you use your cell during choir practice... You know the rules. NO USAGE OF CELLS DURING CHOIR PRACTICE!!!! you can use it duirng choir break or after choir, kay... You are young adults and you should understand simple english... There's no need for me to repeat this over and over again... I dont like to nag... AND do remember to practice the dance moves and the songs we're singing at home. Okay, that's about it :) Bye

Hey members of the choir , yinita here (:
In general , today's practice was not that bad .
And yay ! we finished the song akatonbo :D so pleaaasee go home and practiceee . Remember to start memorizing all the scores especially 'hear the music' . And when you guys are sitting down in the av , please sit up straight and breathe the correct way when singing .
However , discipline is still not that good . You guys are still too chatty and noisy despite the many 'shhhh' we gave . Dont try to test our patience okay . Or mr wong's patience as i know that he is getting irritated by this . Please do not talk when he is teaching . Especially when he is examining another section as it will be hard for them to listen to him . The only major problem with you guys is that you do not know when to talk and when not to talk . So i believe you guys can work on it and improve on it (:
Another thing would be your attendance . Comon people ! Time is running up ! Every single practice is veryyy important so you cant miss out on any ! Please ask your friends who are not regular in their attendance to come especially those who are involved in the year end concert and honk kong trip .
And we will start teaching you guys the dance moves on thursday :D So please be there ! Hopefully you guys can pick up the moves quickly and master it soon :D And go sell those tickets !! we need the money ! and ask for more if you need to ! Remember there's choir on thursday . see ya <3
