Almost the end.

Countdown of 7 working days till the end of my current job. Actually i'm quite reluctant to leave. I do like this job. I like to work in SCO. I do not really like the nature of my job but i like the nature of the company.

Well, I didn't choose to leave. Just that i'm not needed there anymore. Apparently i'm just not the ideal person to do the job according to them. It's fine. I do understand their concerns as every company is concerned as well.

It's just that I didn't expect it to come so fast. Before the trip I was still asking abt it and was told the possibility of extending the current temp contract. After the trip I was told it's over. That's it. What a blow. But i have to accept it and of cos. carry on and get on to the next job (not that i've found it yet). Yah, I need to find a new job, like soon.

Need to start packing up the things i have in office. Haha!

破碎的梦

一切都已成定局，不必再多说了。我也没有选择的权利。就这样吧。
我觉得今年我真的是跌到了谷底。虽然一直抱着正面、积极的态度，但就是什么都不如意。
希望过了今年，运气也会好转。
没办法看到自己的未来，真的失去了方向。

First weekend of Dec

Woah... First weekend of Dec over... we are another step nearer to 2010 now. Hmm... That's really fast! I'll be spending the 2nd weekend of Dec in HK! In like 3 days... I will be flying to HK with kim and han! omg. That is so... i dunno. Anticipating. I hope the trip wouldn't seem too short for us. HAHA! (I haven't even started packing yet. i'm dead)

Last weekend was... Exciting? haha! And nerve breaking too. Ok... anything could be nerve breaking for me.. including watching the horror movie with the nyco ppl. LOL. Ok that's besides the point.

And ya.. the audition was nerve breaking too! I was all fine until i really get into the room. BUT somehow i was quite composed and I tried to calm myself down mentally while playing and without playing wrongly. Was a bit wobbly for the choice piece which was like 'how can it be' cos it should be better. Some of the notes were obviously out of the intonation... but surprisingly i played one part (which i always flopped) nicely! The note was clear and i did it during the repeat too. Haha! Or maybe i wasn't playing fast enough. But i dun care. lol. Set piece was fine! Sight reading was ok... except for the half notes... a bit tricky... and a lot of ppl got caught off guard over there too.

After the playing zhang commented a bit on my intonation. He asked me if i know which note i didn't play accurately.. Err.. I wanted to say a lot! haha! But he said that my first finger is nv accurate in intonation at first position. if i had shifted it to the correct position. it would be all fine.
Ok. Accepted. Then i vaguely heard guo commenting my yin se was quite all right while zhang continued to comment on my instrument. Teachers are really teachers... just one look and they knew it. Haha! If not for the tight time already i think they would have taken more info off me. lol. Like who i bought it from and who made it and blah blah blah.

Then today! 2 ppl are making me nervous by asking me if i got in already. Like I dunno lah! But made me wanna know... Plus my boss mentioned that guo says some of us didn't play very well during the audition. dunno from which section and who. so dun ask me. Well... i hope those whom i hope they will stay, will stay. the others... just go back to where you were. sorry.

Yea. Sunday was the standard chartered marathon. First time going on a 10km. And i left my friends behind after like 2 or 3 km. I can't rmb. Seems quite far cos i kept on looking forward to the next km covered. It took so long for us to see the 5km mark. And i thought 'omg now just 5km'? What i've gotten back? A medal, a satisfactory timing, a pair of muddy track shoes, a few incidents i clearly rmb, and some blisters. lol! But i think it was worth. I saw someone wrote on the tag behind, 'Limits are meant to be broken'. I thought, 'wow! that was cool!' He/she is right, we do not only meet our limits but should try to break it, so that we will not always stay on the spot. Interesting. There are a lot of interesting/encouraging quotes... Next time i should put 1 too. Haha! It really makes the person behind you feel better while running.

Ok... I'm feeling hungry now.. so i should go sleep now. Bye!

Mood spoilers: Some grumbles

So fast... Left with 1month till the end of the year. Still rmb last year we had a crazy time at Joel's house for countdown to 1jan09. So fast it's going to be a year already. What's in for this year then?

Ya... it also means last month in my current job. And i say the job status now is BAD. Dun think i'll be able to complete the task on time. But anyway. I was thinking. They think that i'm 'green', yet they decided to give me such a task. Isn't it kinda weird. Of cos, i have no experience in doing anything like that. And most of the time the E does not tell me things to do automatically. Then sometimes I wasn't told of anything they discussed with the designer/supplier. so what's the point huh? Then today my boss tell me that i must chase them for things... And that's the reason why i'm here. But they are asking an inexperienced person to do it? Isn't supposed to be I do what they ask me to do and job done? I think they are asking too much from a temp staff.

Although i really do not mind working for the company, i have 2nd thoughts as well... esp. towards this dept. Today the office was peaceful cos all the HODs are out for the whole day. and only my boss came back in the evening. Of cos there are ppl working their heads off, and some ppl just relax and had nothing to do, walk ard, sit tgt and chit chat and god knows what they are doing. Do they have to let the whole world know that they have nothing to do? The whole morning was spent eating breakfast and talking. Then lunch. Like WOW! Cool. Actually there's nothing wrong with slacking in the office, i do that sometimes, but dun have to be so loud and boomz. -.-

I guess tmr will be another day of rush.. to get everything done before my boss goes on leave (again). Here they say how important are the things but they are just always not ard. I can't wait to be away for a while, so that they can spend all the time looking after the mess. =x

Ok. It's just fit of the moment. I still have to do it. bleahs. All rights. Need to do a lot more changes tmr. Have to go sleep now. Nites

Random feelings

- Sometimes you make so much effort and in the end it is just another disappointment.
- I really do enjoy myself working in somewhere i really have interest for. but some things are just not want i want. And i just ALWAYS do not get what i like better
- I feel that you really have to like your job to enjoy your job. if not it will just be torture.
- I dun really like the attitude of __________. Since you are still in the company, you should do what you ought to do. Not to give the hack care kind of attitude.
- I feel injustice. for a lot of things. life is just not fair.
- My existence is needed to the minimum. So much so that it is not appreciated at all.
- Things just doesn't work this way.
- I dun want to spend so much energy on such things anymore. Tiring.
- I am a person with very little initiative. yet i have to pick up that little bit to do it first.
- I dun care but this is what i feel.

Nites.

Some update

Nothing is really getting any better. I'm still the lowly paid cheap labour... And i'm still struggling with all the other activities i try to have. It rather fulfilling actually.

Had a good lunch with my NY girls. Talked abt many things but mainly our r/s. Thanks for their concern but if nothing comes, it can't be forced as well right? But i'm happy for the girls who are going on quite steady. And of cos. Someone with pursuer. :) Mine? Slowly wait ba. God knows when and how? It's not easy i guess. Dun worry, i'm as as happy even i'm still single.

And I really enjoy working out. It could be a bit demanding and kinda testing my limits. But it was really good. Er-jie and I missed the bodycombat class on sat cos we were late. So did some workout on our own. Then jogged at ECP on sun evening with yushi. Nice one. Cool weather and good determination. (But spoiled photo memory card. -.-'''). Best was bodycombat class on monday. Really drained every bit out of me. And i have aching thighs today. LOL! damn jialat. Feels like an old woman now. But all was good. Hope to do more and better. :)

Yup. Need to sleep more too. Nitex. Update again soon. I hope. :D

Nice dinner :)

Delighted with dinner at home today...



YEAH! Wah... Chicken chop, Egg on bread and Fries. Actually still got baked beans... but i dun like.. so nv take. hee.

Although we didn't eat tgt... but i'm happy becos my mother did everything herself.. including the sauce on the chicken.. :) ok.. she didn't do anything to the bread. and fries obviously is from those frozen pack. But it's really nice. It depends on how u fry it as well lor... Yeah yeah... will share other food photos another day. hee.

Ya. Need to go. Ciaoz~

最近看太多电视。=P Yeah... 2nd series theme song for 管家仔 and 于素秋. Nicer than 1st series! hahaha. 1st series one overused. and the tune is super getting on my nerves cos it just keep on repeating. lol. So this song nicer! :)

Haha. Like a bit emo... and a bit long liao hor the song. Aiya. i super not updated nowadays. too long nv buy CD and get songs from friends. Somemore i kanna complained by my er-jie. She 嫌弃 my songs say too old!!! wah liao eh. Also never see her go buy CD let me listen. Nowadays she too free liao. But i think i got fetish for buying CD leh. hahaha. I wanna buy so many until i think i got no budget liao. 林宥嘉 sounds good, 蕭敬騰 also good... sis wants 蔡淳佳, i want 陶喆 (so that i can let him sign on our event. HAHA!). I wanted A-mei also.. How like that? Still got so many!! JJ's new album will be out in Dec i think. hahaha. Yeah! :)

Yeah.. i so so excited... although the event could be a bore. but the thought of possibility to get my CDs signed, and take picture with 陶喆 makes me damn excited! hahaha! I hope i really can get it lah. HEE. If not hor also must get the autograph at least right. Wah liao.. i die also want to go to the event. =x

Emo-ness + some happiness

Ok... i admit that i was a bit emo over the weekends... spent most of my time sleeping.. except for the gym times... Actually it was sunday which i was really emo cos i received some unexpected news...

Still went to run early in the morning and in fact had a better run than any days else. Considered the fact that i haven't train my run for some time, it is not bad a result. At least i completed 4.8km. and still, it is only half of the 10km which is less than 1month away. I think that's it lah. hahaha.

Then after i came back from the run. Went into emo mood... Sleep, lunch, erhu, com, sleep, dinner, tv, sleep. I super duper don't know what i doing.. and i really hope everything was a dream. But it's totally the reality.

Well well, after i thought it was no big deal. So i guess i just have to let it go and find my life. Too no life now. tsk tsk tsk. But with all the things on hand, how to have a good life? My friends commented that i like very busy, even busier than them. Sometimes i think it's true also. And i don't know i'm so busy for what? It's ok.. I will get over it soon. I have to. It's already been so long and yet. I have a bad control over my emotional feelings. I hate it. But ya. I know i can.

On a lighter note, last fri was YPC concert. Went to help out with bringing the kids. And sat through both sessions of the concert. I can only say, little kids are really very cute and the spontaneous lot. Primary school already not really 'on'. Needless to say the secondary school kids. But i can understand.. cos if i'm there as a secondary school student. i dun think i will participate well also. So can't blame them, it's how the Singaporean kids are brought up to be. Of cos, the most action group was the American school kids. They are really awesome. I can see that they really enjoyed themselves. And i am pleased to see children appreciating our music. :)))

A few more concerts till the end of year. Will be missing the Ah Girl Concert since i will be in HK during that time. Oh wells, no fate with that series. haha! But i've still got Three Suonas and Voice of Harmony II. I'm damn excited to go to VOH II cos David Tao is coming!! Yeah! Hopefully i will be able to get photo and autograph from him. HEE. Actually i do enjoy this part of my work. That's why i think i'm not suitable for the position i'm in now. But how leh?

最后

这是最后一次为他流泪。再也没有什么奢望了。

Waiting for next month!

Somehow i'm looking forward to the next month!! :))) Watching Broadway Beng, concert(s), stand chart marathon, HK trip with the ny clique, SYCO chalet... And many more!!!

This month... i know work is going to be unbearable these few weeks... plus i need to practise erhu for sy audition. It's not going to be easy this time round. so i really need to and have to practise well. Hais. hope next year i will still be inside lor. =x Some friends are coming back. worth to be happy! :)))

I'm really looking forward to the HK trip... first time traveling with han, kim and von. (although i dunno if von will really be with us during the trip since her gab also going). But still, i'm excited! hahaha. And i'm really brushing up my cantonese this time round. :) Hehe. BUT! aiya too bad i'm going the day after NYCO comes back. so bu qiao. if not can meet them there leh! so cool right.

Then of cos the long awaited SYCO chalet... like that's the most looked forward activity every year. hahaha! But JOEL TAN is not going i think -.- Wet blanket. But i haven't really ask him why... TSK. But still, i'm looking forward to it. :)

Erm... Need to sleep so that i can wake up to run tmr! Nites.

November already!

Wah... Half a month gone just like that. haha. Heard over radio... today is 306th day of this year liao. so like what? less than 60 days left till next year. Why so fast huh?

This is what working life turn ppl into. Lifeless. Other than work time.. dun really use the comp much at home anymore.. Damn tired looking at the screen so near already and go home still wanna continue? I dun think so.. I'd rather lie down on the bed or sofa and watch some tv. :)

Work has been quite hectic... other than the times i fb. haha! Oops. But anyways... work is as such and i don't like to comment more.

Other than that, actually i don't really have anything else big enough. omg... ok. Let me think.

Ok. 1.

Last week met up with some of the beloveds for Steamboat session! :))) Qin, ling, yih, sushi, char and i! Hee. Via and Jan cannot make it cos of study. Dj working. 6ppl counted not bad. at least 50% of the attendance leh. :) Haha! Steamboat at Xian De Lai and dessert at Ah Chew. Er. Nv take photos cos no time lah. Busy cooking lor. They say i like have a lot of things in my bowl and on my plate but i nv touch at all. Lol! But in the end i think i ate quite a lot leh.. Right?

Wah. Bad cos eat and eat but i didn't go to gym nor run this week at all! =x Oh. gym once. for Toby's Street class. But that wasn't much a help. hahaha. somemore after that went to eat mac. -.- All gone. hahaha.

And no gym on weekends cos of bh on sat and sick on sunday. I'd rather sleep in. hahaha! All cos of the super duper heavy rain on sat. I think it's raining everywhere lah... and just so happened i was suay to be still waiting for bus to come back from bh. the bus stop no use de lor.. all the rain coming in from the front. got umbrella also no use lah. I was ALL wet from head to toe and still have to protect the erhu. So hor. totally shiver all the way during the 45min or more bus ride. cos raining then the bus driver drove slower lah. and i hate it when my shoes and socks are soaked too. so damp and cold to walk. Bathe right away... and still feeling cold. Wahraoos... Supposed to meet sushi and jan to go DblO at night. BUT i nv. :(

But my mother say she wants to mj. so da-jie, er-jie and i played. "赌桌上是没有亲情的" It's true. Totally. haha. Da-jie lost the most. i think her money all went to er-jie. I won a bit. Mummy lost also. Luckily lah... cos in front i lost until cham cham... i lost like $16 bucks straight before i start winning back. hahaha!

But ya.. that's all lor. Sunday i just sleep all the time away. =x except for some com playing time. but playing the com makes me sleepy. so the cycle goes lah. =D

Ok. Knocking off soon. HAHA! =x

Where got slack lor!

I'm back! Today not so busy.. so ya. update a bit lah. hahaha! <- that was in the morning.. maybe it's a curse.. cos after that i really didn't have time for anything else... plus my com was sent to some upgrading and clearing of space... more than half a day without my pc = very little work done...

Spent time going through booklet stuff... which was really jialat cos in the end i have really a lot of things not done properly yet! and now.. i like have to do everything all over again. Sians.. So i like spent last 2-3hours pia-ing all the things and like only half done? damn pekchek. OT for 1h and still cannot finish. It's always friday which will be the busiest. Think monday have to pia pia pia... Rahhh... Damn worried now lah. what if i cannot finish?? But whatever lah. =x

Now sitting in mac with one of the fun-est grp of ppl.. although i'm not involved in whatever they are doing.. haha. but ya... need to relax a bit and laugh with them sometimes... and that reminds me that last week i met minhui and junsian too... Haha. Tgt with a few other to celebrate Daryl's bday.. at a quite nice place.. but we kinda spoil the ambience of the place lah... cos we too noisy. lol!

Anyway... i'm really like so no life now... so must really have some fun sometimes also. :) Like seriously... my life now is like work, erhu, gym and home. tsk tsk. need more life but need more time also.. HAHA!

Work Life. Meet with Friends. Erhu.

Haven't been able to update a lot lately. That's the problem with working. Haha! There are just tonnes of things to do and hundreds of places to go. Plus the com i'm using is really like ancient slow. so there's nothing much i can do with it as well.

So anyway, so many things have happened lately, i dun really know where to start. Just last week, i already went to 2 Outreach concerts. One at NTU and another at Singapore Turf Club. Different Experience totally. For ntu it was really relaxing for me. All i had to do was to put the season booklets and brochures on the table and that's it! Everything was cleared by the audience and so i had nothing to bring back. The only good thing was perhaps I get to watch the performance and I finally got to meet up with some friends over there. Ok.. actually it's only 1 friend whom i haven't seen for a long time. and that's Jon lau. Lol! Zhongming and xiaoqiang were there too. Plus we went dinner tgt with their some other friends and took train home with zhongming. The rest went back hall. Had loads of laughter with them. And joke of the day was...

Friend to jon: You and A share the same birthday.
Me: Wah... Did u see her sleeping beside you?
Jon: Never leh... too dark.
Me: You also very dark.. i think that's why she can't see you also.
Jon: No leh... I got smile. (meaning can see his teeth)
Me (think for a while and laugh): Eh... Wait.. When you were born, where got teeth?!?!
...

Crazy.

Then had a group tour on fri morning. Exhausted my whole morning, walked here and there to get things ready. Luckily our venue manager was ard and he really did a great job introducing the building and the orchestra to our guests. I didn't really have to do much except to follow them ard and guide them to the places. Got to relax a bit since I had to sit with them in the concert hall to watch the rehearsal. It's really nice to hear them praise the orchestra. Cos it's equal to praising CO as a whole. Haha! They all left with smiles on their faces and i'm really delighted to see such scenes. And i hope they will be back for more CO performances. :)

Sat was Mid-Autumn Fest and to a certain extend i was rather reluctant to work. Moreover, I've only started work for abt 8 weeks and I had to already work for 5 saturdays. (ok i of which i was the performer). But still. it's a bit sian. Like jiaqi had said.. You are going to the same place again this week??? Anyway, not for the following 2 weeks or so before the next major concert! Hee. :))) And a wedding is going to save me from one of the duties. Heh.

That was the first time i enter the racecourse. Heh. But no horses lor. So sad. Seriously a lot of audiences.. Like full maybe? But there were some lousy incidents which happened and i dun wish to say it lah. Like reflects damn badly on Singaporeans. And for one of it, damn bad example for her child as well. Oh man. dun remind me of it.

Talk abt something else... First lesson for erhu was not bad really. He's really a nice teacher. He pointed out my problems immediately. Some of the problems i know, but just dunno how to solve. Anyway he taught me back the basics again. Which i was really grateful. I need it to build up my techniques. So back to changing between inner & outer strings, left hand posture, changing of positions on the strings and vibrato. Esp. the left hand part. I always felt that I wasn't holding the proper way and my hands kept getting off the pole. And now i'm trying hard to change. :) Tmr is lesson again! Going intensive to use up the hours and to train proper for audition as well. Yay-ness!

Yup. Sleeping time! Nites.

Night before first lesson

Excited. But a bit nervous also lah. Didn't expect it to be so smooth an attempt.. Hee. But good lah. Now motivated to prac more. Haha! Tmr first lesson. Hopefully wun be too difficult. =X somemore i so funny. Didn't even ask how much he's charging for each lesson lor. -.- until now i still dunno. Haha!

Tired liao... Update again. So many happenings this week! :) nitex.

Dramatic Week

As the title already implies.. it's really been one dramatic week. hahaha.

The most dramatic thing which happened.. Let me ask a qns first.. How often does ur bag hook on to something while u were walking and u didn't know it even when there's a force? How often does ur earphone wire get hooked by someone else in the mrt? I am the suay one whose wire got pulled by someone's bag.

Tuesday, I was on my way home from work.. At raffles a lot of ppl alight.. so this lady (cant rmb her face but probably her bag. lol) was going to alight. Somehow, her bag caught my earpiece wire. I was playing my DS at that time but felt the pull immediately. But i had to put the stylus back first and then quickly tried to pull the wire back. But she didn't feel it lah!! So it didn't work, and my shuffle lose its grip from my bag and was hanging there. Then i pulled again and to my horror, the earpiece detached itself from the shuffle.. and my shuffle was sent flying! Landed on the floor. Just 1CM away from the gap. wah liao eh. got a shock outta my life. Then this person picked up the shuffle before i could.. and sent it out to some lady outside the train. I had to run out of the train to get it from the lady looking very blur with the shuffle in her hand. And then i ran back into the train. Like.. where got so drama one?!

As i was telling my sis this story... i realised that i should have pulled back her bag instead of the wire. But first instinct of cos is to grab my stuff first right. If really drop down the track.. Dunno can claim from who sia?

Then Thursday, i was planning to go gym after work. And i had everything ready. Near to knock off time. I realised i didn't bring the keys and lock to the locker. -.- Hais. Tried to get my sis to see if she's there or if she's going. But she didn't pick up. I didn't check the time lah. Turned out that she was in the previous class already. So i waited... and was thinking of other plans like going for a jog instead. Like i dunno panic what lah.. I was already in the train.. praying that she will call back soon. Luckily she called when i was at raffles place lah... Cos i was thinking if she nv call by the time i get to bugis.. i would just go home. Heng ah! So i still get to go to the class in the end. :)

Then today. Jiaqi's turn. HAHA!!! And she called my sis also. We really got the same blood flowing. hahaha! Somemore she was late lor. so she stuffed everything into my locker.. hahaha!

Ya.. other days... a lot of things at work lah. Dun wish to say anymore. Nites all! :)

Tmr is jogging day! Monday is Convocation day!! :)))

SYCO 2009 Last Chapter: Chamber Recital

SYCO Chamber Recital is over... Kinda happy.. kinda sad..

Happy becos we put up a good show... although first song was a bit screwed towards the end... The rest performed quite well ba. :) Didn't get to hear all the songs... sometimes downstairs and couldn't hear... sometimes busy chatting and camwhoring so not concentrating. haha! But i thought 锯大缸 was really good. They were really performing. not only musically.. also physically. cool! Glad that some pieces really turn out well... :) I thought 丝路驼铃 was not bad too... Haha. i was only in for 2 songs... so dun like that lah huh.. Heh.

After concert our usual LPS outing. Damn cool but a lot of ppl went home sia... Hais. It's really been long when all the LPS clique ppl have a session tgt. Should ask them come Wii again soon. I think they like also. lol! Our concert master's gossip nv left when we all gather.. it's so funny. Guo laoshi just like said out the name... Haha! But i think he is enjoying all these too ya? lol. He was so so funny throughout the whole concert cos he was thinking of how to ask for a photo. and we were all laughing at him lah. And he did make it. Haha. good for him then. See... I'm still a friend ok!

Hmm.. Anyway. Concert has ended... means SYCO is over for this year. So it's really kinda sad thing. When is the next time we will meet up, i also dunno. I really hope we have an outing soon man... What are the welfare ppl doing? Omg.. and desmond dared to ask me how come i nv give full marks for the committee this year. Tsk. Pls go do some reflection k. Lol!

But afterall... it's really still a good year in SY. Dunno if i'll be able to make it in next year... Hais. Have to start taking lessons soon if i really want to make it. =x But sometimes things just aren't what we expect. And i think next year i will go to erhu! YEAH! :) Ya. and that is if i can get in lah. cos afterall it is more difficult to get in erhu than gaohu (ironically). Haha!

Ok. Bye SYCO 2009 and everyone work hard for the coming audition! :)

Eh....

Busy busy... But a bit mundane too.... dunno what to type.. hahaha!

Had a nice dinner with han, kim and yuhui ytd. the rest couldn't make it... Really haven't meet up with them for some time. So a good time to catch up with them... Glad that yuhui gotten a perm job already... sounds good to me.. and the other 2 are enjoying their lives ba... haha! Good for them...

While i'm still slogging away in the company.. sians. lotsa things to do... tmr got a lot of things to do again!! Good luck to myself. haha.

How come i can't think of any happy stuff to blog abt?? :( Is life really so sad for me? Maybe i'm just tired. should go sleep liao... after i'm done with some installations.

Ah.. sorry for this senseless post. will update when there's something better to blog abt.

Some tips for Salmon

As a salmon lover... can't help but post this info which i saw in 我报. :)

料理三文玉Tips

• 三文鱼会吸收水分，不能用水洗，可用吸水餐巾将它擦干。
• 别把三文鱼直接放在砧板上，要用一张餐巾垫着，避免鱼肉受污染。
• 挪威三文鱼无需经过冷冻杀菌，即可当成Sashimi生吃。
• 放入零度雪柜中，可保存长达1个星期。
• 别把三文鱼煎至全熟，长时间和高温煎煮会破坏营养。
• 在鱼肉七分熟时，可把鱼片放在碟上，让鱼肉外部温度慢慢渗入，使内部鱼肉变熟。

Yup! :)
Feel like eating salmon. hahaha!

3 Concerts in a row

Really haven't been updating diligently lately ya. =x

Went for quite a few concerts lately... Haven't been to 1 for a long time too... and at 1 go.. i went to 3! Chengsan, SCO featuring New Oap Uk!, Hsinghai. Erm... of cos.. in terms of standard.. the other 2 cannot be compared to SCO lah... and surprisingly box office for hsinghai wasn't good. But i think overall they have a higher standard. But anyways... both are quite dominant of guess players... that's something really sad to say. plus for hsinghai some of the players' name were not in side the prog booklet at all. lol.

Gada Meilin and No. 2 Symphony were quite a disappointment for the 2 orchestras as their last piece of the concert. Was expecting more than what they played. No offence.. but ya. probably becos of the lack of practising tgt. It's really difficult lah... some ppl only go for the prac at the very last min before concert. that doesn't help in building up the orchestra. for hsinghai i can only say.. i'd rather those guest musicians watch the concert instead.

On the other hand... i'm really proud of our SYCO ppl. haha! All the soloists for chengsan and hsinghai are from sy lor... Yea. And i think they all played well!! :))) 雨后庭院 and 西双版纳 are really nice songs... and 喜 and 梁山随想 are both classics. They really did well lah. my sis says jingwen like no need to use much energy to blow suona. (although a few mistakes made) Yea... Joyce was very steady as usual. sheng mu like... omg(odness). haha! And minhui. dun need to say much lah. =x

Yea.. SCO concert.. Love the songs. nothing much to say... But Ku laoshi asked 你现在在做什么? and i like.. '我在这里上班'. haha! And he said he didn't see me at all.. Ya true.. cos he nv come up 5th floor. plus i nv go say 'hi'. i scared he dun rmb me. haha. The rest also take turns to ask if he rmb them -.- He like... 当然记得! Yea of cos... Saw him some days after the concert... and spoke to him a little. not bad. :)

I think next concert i would be working anyway... hahaha! can shun bian listen. This fri? hopefully i'm not in for this week's concert... =P Eh actually anything lah. got free tix for this fri lor. lol!
