Been some time since Mini concert..

Really.. the preparation work leading up to Mini concert was horrid! Coupled with unplugged practices for Munchie Monkey, I reached home at about midnight everyday! I mean, I'm ok with it, but it is not good for me in the long run.

On Mini concert.. A break. We took a gamble, and it failed. We did everything we could to ensure that the performance would be gd, but screw the sound and light. Screw them.. they were non existent! Had the sound be good, and the lightings available to us, I very sure Mini concert would be a moment to remember for the audience. Most if not all the vocalists really improved tremendously in the 6 weeks. Like come on.. which music school in Spore will give you that result in 6 week. I would say you are just getting through ur open vowels and diaphragmn exercises then! Well.. I'm am optimistic person.. so Emerge.. here I come. It defo has to be damn gd.. Otherwise I would have failed totally in Events, which I would very likely go into.

Munchie Monkey.. I've been taking the bulk of the songs for Munchie Monkey. I realised that all my songs are played the same way. But it's no longer a problem of techniques(cuz the songs are ballads) but a prob of me sitting down and thinking through of the arrangements. This is time consuming and with so many things at the back of my head, I cant do it. Even so, I enjoyed preparing for Munchie cuz I'm increasing my song library, and would help if I audition for some cafes like Ai Qing Hai or stuff again.

Oh, on Ai Qing Hai.. I cant rmb if i screwed them. But yes, I'm screwing them.. 129308190283 vocalists and about 20 instrumentalists auditioned, and they took in ONE guitarist and ONE vocalist in the end. Like wad de hell.. the money earned from the registration fee is like a annual bonus for them. Ok, I went through all the way to the final round and performed there for an hour, which I was so nervous and screwed up lots of songs, so I've gotten my money's worth! And one gd thing is that I met Sherlynn there! She was part-timing and she was in my first vocal class at Hark Music. I dun consider Ark something proud of. They SUCK.

Talking about Ark.. I was at Echo Music for awhile learning jazz piano, and I realised Du Xin is there too! I would really really want him to analyse my improvements because he was the first instructor I had who went through vocals and keys basics with me. I knew nuts prior to that. So I would really value his comments. =) I stalked his fb, and his vocals has improved loads! Cant tell his keys though cuz I dun really rmb his playing then.

I was juz thinking a moment ago too.. that in future, all the contacts and friends I made while in Voices and Geyao would very likely be linked to wad i would do in future. Really.. say 10 yrs down the road.. some of us happen to be judges for the same event. It'll be nostalgic. =) Ahh~ Nice nice feeling now. Haha!

And lastly.. Can i have stronger ears and vocals! I need them now!!! It's really irrittating when my fingers can do more than wad I can hear. It sucks.....
