Hey everyone!
Please note that first day of school also marks the first day of Choir.
Choir has new days and timings:
Wednesdays and Fridays, 3pm to 6pm.
Reasons:
1) Wed and Fri are the official CCA days, so this way we will not clash with too many after-school activities.
2) 3pm to 6pm means no excuse if your lessons end at 2.15pm.
Note: I've viewed the new timetable. If things do not change too much, some classes may end at 2.45pm. For my case, I'm ending class at 2.45pm on wednesday (week1). I'll check with Ms Ng about this. Meanwhile, everything stays this way.
New Year Resolutions for Choir:
1) Be good enough for Czech trip. Note: We'll only go to Czech if our attitude satisfies the Comm, Ms Yin, Ms Ng and Mr Loh. By looking at the present situation, we'll need to work alot harder if you guys wanna sing in Europe.
2) Punctual.
3) Perfect attendance.
4) CCA promotion Day: 4th Jan (Friday) See how near it is? Means this wed we'll have to drill on the songs for this day. Please be serious about this, because we need to bring in good singers to choir, and if we sing badly that day, we'll attract the wrong group of people into choir.
5) Chinese New Year. We should not embarrass ourselves every year. While we pray that we won't have to dance with chopsticks and handkerchiefs, we'll have to make sure our performance will not flop.
There are new rules and new stuffs coming up for Year 2008, and we'll be updating you guys soon.
Lastly, have a happy new year ! :)

GOOD JOB PEOPLE!
(Credits: Ms Yin-- Choir BBQ)
GAH!
I AM SO GLAD WE ALL DID WELL TODAY!
I am, did you hear yourselves? We didn't sound like this during practices @ LT2! The sound coming from us previously were like nonsense, and this time it was like. WOAH. Zai choir sound (BUT STILL NOT GOLD STANDARD YET) Haiyoh always like that! We always reveal our hidden talents at the eleventh hour $%#&! Eh people must be consistent okay!
Still, you all worked very hard. We can see the efforts! The juniors, the seniors, the comm, the conductors, etc.... You all deserve a break! So there you have it. Till 27th Dec (:
THANK YOU MS YIN!
Yes, she helped us like. A.L.O.T. Okay! So to repay her, WE SHOULD GIVE HER FULL ATTENDANCE, BETTER ATTITUDES & LARGER NUMBERS IN CHOIR! People start grabbing your friends who seemingly loves singing, and let them join us! We welcome anyone! (as long as they're not tone deaf) :D
As for attitude-wise, most are fine, except for some. Still, we all must have that NEVER-SAY-DIE-TO-CHOIR ATTITUDE :D
Okay, next!!!
27 DECEMBER ALL ARE TO COME!! MUST HAVE FULL ATTENDANCE. You all are pretty sure how "cruel" we can deal with latecomers/ponners. So, be there okay! No monkey business. We still have things to do next year!
And anyone wants a choir outing or something? Simply suggest it in the tagboard (leave name & please don't scold people). :D We'll respond to it, definitely (:

NOTE.
TAKE NOTE. Extra practices along the way.......
Monday: Vendela, Asaph and Eeron
- Master piano parts of songs, get rhythm blahblah right. I will be there to supervise.
- Time: 3pm to when we've mastered it.
Tuesday: CHOIR PRACTICE [For all]
- Time: 9am to 1pm.
Wednesday: CHOIR PRACTICE [For all]
- Time: 9am to 1pm.
Thursday: CHOIR FINAL PRACTICE [Tentative]
- Time: 10am to 12pm.
Friday: CHOIR CONCERT @ Paya Lebar Methodist school
I know it's really taxing, but no choice, because we really need to drill on the songs. We've got so many areas to improve on. We also have to master our notes (that's the fundamental). Then we'll need the dynamics and expression and everything else to make us sound better than just "pitch perfect".
I promise more outings (Choir/Comm) after the concert, so as to strengthen junior-senior ties. Meanwhile, we work harder for our concert alright?
By the way, if any juniors feel that tagging to complain is a must, be my guest. Banning and deleting of unnecessary tags won't take up too much of my time. (:
Thanks,
Nat

Heyo
Hope you all have fun yesterday @ ECP :D
Anyway.................................
NEXT CHOIR PRACTICE:
Date: 21st NOV (TOMORROW).
Time: 10am to 1pm
Venue: Choir room
Attire: School Uniform/Choir Tee.
So this means that WE HAVE ONLY TWO PRACTICES/SIX HOURS TO GET OUR SONGS RIGHT.
Be prepared for extra sectionals, and extra sectionals are COMPULSORY.
So now, get your throats ready for tomorrow. (By the way, SORE THROAT is not a valid excuse for not turning up. So are WORK ATTACHMENTS)
ATTENDANCE NEEDS IMPROVEMENT SO THAT THIS CHOIR CAN PROCEED TO GREATER LEVELS. Don't you think a High Silver is not enough?
Solution A: Full Attendance
Solution B: Listen to your SLs during sectionals.
Like they say, "When in doubt, sing loud." - Robert Merrill
Singing wrongly now's better than singing wrongly on stage!
Okay enough of preaching already. Just be there tomorrow @ 10am, and no monkey business(:
Last but not least, EVERYBODY please bring along $4 each. To restock Choir Funds. Choir funds are getting really short of cash. Also, those 10 people going for the concert on 28th Nov kindly bring $15 tomorrow for the tickets.
Thank you,
Nat.

New Rule
Take note: Choir has NEW RULE.
Choir commences at 2.45pm, so those late for more than 20mins without approved valid reason will have to clean up the choir room after choir practice. No room for negotiation(: Even those who end school at 2.15pm will have to be punctual for choir. Committee to be punctual at all times(:
And for convenience, please inform any one of your SLs if you are late or can't come for choir, and perhaps one day before or before choir latest. Don't make the SLs ask you. You will have to tell them yourself. Otherwise, next time we'll get the Choir teachers (Mrs Long, Mrs Periera or Ms Ng) to personally ask you. :]
Last but not least, listen to your SLs, student conductors and the new conductors k? Haha it's really not easy to lead the whole choir, so let's all play a mini part by lending your listening ear.. With that, choir practices will not have to be wasted on scoldings etc(:
Okay that's all(:

Choir Badge.
Hey everybody! I've this idea of getting a Choir Badge, which we can all wear one each on our collar to school everyday! It clearly signifies our passion for choir Plus it will be even more symbolic when the badge is gold in colour(: Cost wise, if the school can subsidise, perhaps no need to pay. But most probably we'll have to. Haha won't be too expensive(:
I shall do a poll! ^^
Thanks so much for your valuable time! :D

Choir.
Heyo! Shall start the ball rolling for the beginning of a new journey! ^^ Now, with the NewComm taking over, I hope that each and every one of us will work hand in hand with us, so that the Choir will SHINE(: Try to get the hang of the NewComm okay? Anything you guys wanna tell us, we'll be there to offer a listening ear. Always remember we are a big family, and we are always there for one another! Stay committed to Choir! We've braved through SYF'07, and now's the new challenge: to progress even without the SYF. There are plenty of opportunities for the Choir to showcase ourselves, but of course, we need to sing well too(: So anyway, I hope that we will all spend our wednesdays and thursdays afternoons together and sing as ONE yeah?
Rmb: Choir is love! Spread the Love!! :D :D
Love,
NatK Pres
