courtesy

tell me, and truthfully. who edited my post? the one asking the anonymous people to cease and desist? even if it's just adding on sometihng in the form of (), did i ever give you permission?

yes, this is a joint and shared blog but does that give you the permission or the authority to edit any of the posts, no matter how small, without first asking the author? even if i did not sign off, it is only basic courtesy to at least put up a post asking for permission.

any comments, unwanted or not, should be at the tagboard.

so much (supposedly) brains, so little consideration.

Editor's remark: I edited it because it is the admin's authority and privilege to do so. With the admin's status on the member list, you can do the same, with one caveat: no changing of the words, and all insertions made should be minimal.

wow there're many anonymous people here. identify yourselves! cease and desist! i command you to stop! in the name of wobbbleshubbledubblie the Great the IV!

who are you infiltrators? what have we, at saintschorale done to you to incite so much hatred to you? is it the teachers, the comm or just the singers? we are just singing for passion's sake and have not done anybody harm. tell us if you have any grieviencies, but do not stoop to such a level to air your displeasures!

i can only conclude that the anonymous1,2,3 and SATB are not from the choir because no one in it will ever ever hurt a fly and everyone there is so well liked and everyone loves each other, from the top, the teachers, to the millipedes that invade the AVA(Ed: really?) (to hell with you, whoever who put this in), but especially the top.

visionary leadership, careful compromise, a listening ear to the masses, tight fisted but gentle control; all hallmarks of a great leader. exclusively at saintschorale.

hey dudes. wee! my first time posting here. so fun!

an encouragement.

like a bruise on unblemished fair skin
wanting never to be seen
like the stench of decomposing rubbish
cloaking the beauty of a wish
where sorrow and pain meet
as the lost shuffle their feet
with red-shot eyes of grief
the times of joy are brief

while the fragile heart may falter
losing the will to battle
there yet is always love
from our God above
who takes us by His hand
and is gracious to the end
for those who seek with earnest
shall triumph over the darkness

when we all fall down, it will be too late.

hello everyone.

something on a more serious note today,
considering that concert's less than 2 weeks away now.

no, i'm not here to bitch and whine about how screwed things are.
even if they are that screwed.

but i do know that many, many people are complaining about the frequency and length of choir practices.

well screw that.

i understand the need for the practices, i understand the urgency.
its really somewhat unsettling to see such stuff happening now.
but things can only be carried that far.

its no use pushing when the vast majority of us are like, half dead.
i know our efficiency can be much better.

people, we are a team.
we work together as a team.
just put aside our differences for now.

singing in a choir is a team effort, not a solo sprint.

yes, agreed. shit happens.
but its no use pointing fingers at who was the main culprit of that pile of shit.
hell, sometimes there isn't even one to point fingers at.

we're all in this together alrights.
whether we like it or not.

together.

not going off alone, each with our own opinions.
like i said, we are a team.
listen to what each other has to say, no matter if it sounds ridiculous to you.

and i dunno, but don't get pissed because you get scolded or whatever.
cos we suck, that's why we get scolded. ha.
i mean, there's always a reason for everything.

saints chorale.
these 2 words have to mean something to you.
its your cca for god's sake.
haha.

we sing for the name of the choir.
we have to feel pride in it.

the adrenaline rush when you're out there, on the stage.
the ring of applause filling the hall.
the sense of satisfaction when you do well.
the approval of the conductor.
the joy of having someone praise us.

let's do it for ourselves, if not for the choir.
but never forget that we all part of saints chorale.

just my two cents la. heh.

anyway people, work hard okay.
just another 2 more weeks or so.
we can do this, i know we can.
we've already got most of the songs done right?
some memorised even.
yes late, but like they say, better late than never.
like i've said in a previous post (i think?)
we've done it before, and i'm damn sure we can do it again.

its not too late, and we're a good choir anyway. =P

so let's do it okay.
exorcise the ghosts of the yesterdays,
and show them what we're capable of.

the time has come for us to show our worth, to take our place.
so yeah. let's do it guys.

haha.
