Well we had raptai again with a new song that gling with the help of some others put together. And we didnt get a chance to practice together. Most of us knew the song because i recorded gling singing (THROUGH THE PHONE) and gling and i sent to *hopefully* everyone. but that was it.

we all KNEW the song
but we never practiced together
we werent sure of the counts and all. Though gling did try to brief us through it before teacher ushered us on stage saying 'GO TALK ON STAGE' as if there was any time at all. So with the lights glaring down at us and eyes watching us like hawks,
...we sang
I guess it was sorta predicted. That we would do badly, but hey it was better than the first time. and i found this oddly hilarious and fun. =) the stomping and all and the guys not knowing when to come in and everyone looking back at them XD and then jovan flipping his paper 'oh shit oh shit which part now?!' In the end, when you think about it, without practice, that wasnt so bad after all. XD
there was one section of the song which was supposed to be sang really high. and well most of the girls couldnt reach the key with the exception of MONWEI cuz you know SHES MONWEI XD. so we all used like falsetto to sing and it came out so retarded. soft and retarded. like constipated people singing. the audience was laughing at us and i couldnt stop giggling either. ah humiliating? yea well it was, but it was more funny to me really. i guess in the end, i dont really care what the audience think. We didnt have any practices, things like this was bound to happen.
I had Fun.
and well the teacher is a complete pain in the you know where by just ASSUMING we wont have enough time to practice and will not be able to perfect the song by graduation day. Tsk tsk looking down at us. She said it was a great idea but it was TOO AMBITIOUS. as gling, monwei and i were saying 'AMBITIOUS ONLY CAN BE SUCCESSFUL. lol LOOK AT BILL GATES.' but yeah. i was about to say something really insulting but okay, she doesnt deserve that. XD backspaced.
Gling was pretty upset for a bit. Another idea turned down. There there darling! i was pretty happy with the group of people this time. When gling asked them to gather they really DID gather. and when gling asked them who wanna change songs, no one raised their hands. i know there were some of them who wanted to but restrained themselves. and for that, i am thankful. I am grateful that they stood by us this time. and THIS time we were really a group. like all in this together. To know that whats done is done and stand by each other till the end. =) I could see some peoples expression. the whole laughy-laughy i told you so expression but them not raising their hands really meant a lot. *well to me it did*
To not be condescending. To not be haughty and 'I TOLD YOU SO' in our faces. I do appreciate the thoughtfulness. and so this time, im just really glad.
Forget that people BOO-ed
Forget that people laughed
All in all, it was a great day. PLUS, gling me monwei were totally fooling around after that. XD singing songs, making weird dance moves and cracking jokes with guo yaw and joyee. that was hilarious! so fun filled and just so HAPPY! x)
Smile when your heart is aching
Smile even though its breaking
When theres a cloud in the sky you'll get by
if you smile through your tears and sorrow
smile and maybe tomorrow
you'll see the sun come shining through for you
Light up your face with gladness
Hide every trace of sadness
Although a tear may be ever so near
Thats the time you must keep on trying
smile, what's the use of crying?
you'll see that life is still worthwhile
If you just smiile~ x)
*heart the song*
Anyway, we're singing stand by me and some chinese song now.
Not original but ah well. we tried. =)
