A complete cycle
Finally, everything’s over, it’s time to retire, really. It’s kinda awkward having let go everything suddenly, but like sbu said, our empire has come to an end, it’s time for the new generation to take over the choir. A great burden is released from my shoulders now, yet, the tinge of sadness lingers when the thought of leaving surfaces. Starting from june 2005, we’ve really been through a lot – 2005 state level, selling of mooncakes, Nightingale Nite 2005, International Choral Fest 2005, sports day sales, district, state and national level 2006, Choral Fest 2006 and all sorts of performances…. Can’t believe we’ve done that much in a year’s time. My choir life ended officially when the national level competition ends, we won the juries’ award and the best conductor award. I believe we could have gone further if we didn’t go off pitch, but no one is to blame, these are unpredictable circumstances we have to face in competitions. If you’ve been reading my previous posts you would have known the passion I have towards the choir, I enjoyed singing together with people who have the same passion, I cherish the joyous moments we spent to together. I will not forget the days in Sam Tet Choir. These are some messages that I would like to convey to my beloved members :
