Quote Kelly, "So we didn't suck as I originally thought. Yay for Hooi Lay & Martin!! I want our performance DVD"

i agree with her. after a week of practicing beethoven's 9th symphony at recsam, we final performed in dewan sri tonight. it was smashing! everyone was great. we stopped at the same and right time. no inappropriate page turning, we were all looking at the conductor.and also the dim. and stuff. haha. but our feets were like gonna break. honestly break a leg. lol. cause we stood for about 1 hour in (my boots, carmen they all high heels i think) haha. very painful. in the end, hand hurts due to clapping and leg hurts. haha. but it was all worth it. there was once our japanese conductor couldn't understand what our irish chorus master was saying in english and they communiacated in german. -.- these multilingual ppl. haha. we interviewed them(hooi lay and martin ennis) and it was fun. haha. i would type it out but i have mostly forgotten. there was one part that i do remember.

Q: what is the highest note that you can reach?
A: depends how much whiskey i have drunk.

haha. got autographs and everything. haha. mr. martin blushes so easily. haha. they both really built us up. glad i decided to join. at first i was doubtful cause i didn't know the score and german. imagine not knowing a language and singing with it. haha. i learned a new word from the camp. welt means tent. ahaha. remember the t. and also we have to DROP OUR JAW, right kelly? haha. it was quite wasy to pick up the song. i think most of you are familiar with the ode to joy? yeah. oh. i forgotten to talk bout the soloist. wowzers. haha. the soprano soloist was pretty. at first the rehersal we were like.. hmm. ok only la.. today we were like. WOW. haha. all the soloist were good. but i want to see ourselves. they were supposed to sell the dvd but texchem(the company sponsoring) didn't allow camera's. so no dvds. sheesh. don't get to enjoy our own performance. i wanted to hear how good we were by my own ears. haha. *not being perasan* but quite a lot of ppl complimented us. even the pros. haha. lalala. i shall stop now.
