what on earth are they singing?

I'm still left with 4 tickets to sell. *frustrated* arrrgh. Why why why. I've tried to come up with plausible reasons why people don't want to come for our concert. Here goes.

1. People don't understand what on earth are we singing. What's bin nam ma? Some rude word hurled at our mums??
   
2. People are bored by us standing about on stage making funny facial contortions. But do you know that it's awfully difficult trying to come up with actions to accompany our songs? The last time I was in a choir, we had to go into formations and do actions while singing. It was excruciatingly difficult trying to recall the lyrics, have good technique and yet get the actions right! urghs. And someone commented that we didn't sound too good on stage. What's new?
3. "I can't appreciate choral music!" Arrrrgh. That's why all the more you should go in and listen with an open heart and at least try to get the message. I mean, we don't sing silly tribal songs and go "ooo ah ah!! grrrr" you know.
   
4. "I don't have 12 bucks" Lies, lies and more lies.
5. And the winning excuse goes to..."I have to go out on that day". *screams and tears the head of my teddy bear off*

Alright. That being said, I'm quite glad that at least there are people going for our concert. Afterall, we've practised so hard and the least anyone can do is to go and listen with an open mind - even if you haven't been in a choir before and know nuts about singing using your diaphragm. =)

I'm waiting to hear the string ensemble play tonight at our school auditiorium. Hm...BenJ will be coming too! So that's great. Hahaha...I bet he's going to make a lot of remarks about our "cheena"-fied auditorium. Point being, what's with the garishly strong headlights at the side and the red *gasp* walls? Well...at least it's big though. Not "big" big, but just big. If you get what I mean. =)

Today's a special day. I made it through the newspaper!! Yessss. Go me, go me! One small step in becoming a better GP student. It doesn't matter that I read the Sunday Times filled with a surprising amount of tabloid news...but at least I'm making an effort! A small one nonetheless. =)) Read the article about the female scholar slamming NS guys yet? In my opinion, any self-respecting man who's completed the gruelling period so affectionately known as NS should read it. How can anyone, including me, who's never been through NS, ever say that men should not complain about their NS days? It's an unjustifiable comment that will send any NS man irate! Argh. I don't think girls will ever realise how hard it is in there...so they'll think that it's men's fault that we're trying to be whiny over here...but seriously, will they ever understand? OH wells. I'm not exactly looking forward to NS, but I sure won't lambaste NS men for being so whiny about how much their instructors have been "tekan"-ing them during their NS days.

I heard that there's going to be a blogger convention coming up. Hm...that'll be pretty cool for a change. Anyone'd like to go?
