This week is crazy!
And I mean crazy in a good way

(Last Thursday)
We signed up for choir competition which will be held

in

6 days.

Two trainers came from PJ3 to teach us.
But before that, each and everyone must sing in front of them so that they can differentiate us according to the different range we have.
Repeating: SING ALONE!!!
I froze at the ALONE word.
My friends went up first.
One by one, the line became shorter and shorter.
And I went up, my hands were so cold already that time, my heart was beating unstably.
I sang, without my squeaky pitchy voice, for once in a very long time.
Then after the first word of the chorus, I made a mistake, breathing through the nose... and the trainer told me to restart... I was freaking out so much...
Then when I finished the chorus, I pointed to my left, trying to do sign language: can I leave now?

After everyone finished, she told us where we are and I was in the "soprano"="upper range" part.
"Great, I'm going to crack my voice."

(Last Friday)Out school teacher had asked for permission for us to skip every class until wednesday.
She then gave us the schedule

Friday: 10.10am to 4.00pm
Sunday: 9.30 to 1.30pm
Monday: 7.30am to 4.00pm
Tuesday: 7.30am to 1.00pm

"Shoot! This is not going to be sweet. We also have drama festival on Saturday! Man! We're really stressing our voice to the max!"

(Yesterday: Sunday)
We sang, sang, sang...
learned, learned, learned the movements
memorize, memorize, memorize the lyrics
memorize, memorize, memorize the steps

We stood for at least 3 hours....repeating the stuff above...

Our legs sore because of last Friday's practice. I guess we're just not used to standing for so long! Some of us even had muscle cramps...

(Today: Monday)
The same thing happened as the one written above!
And it gets messy....some of the sopranos cracked their voices during some of the practice.
We got lectured, of course!

Our English lecturer came into the studio, saying about a debate forum thingy... (InternationalStudentVirtualForum) <-- not sure if it's correct...

I put my name in the list, still wondering if I really wanted to join...

After that, we went to our math class...as Mr. Gan finished class, he thought us how to dance waltz...first with the boys....the girls learned from the side. I went down with some of the girls as we needed to continue our choir rehersals.

The trainers also bought candies, those for coughs and sore throats, so that we don't crack our voices!
