PHEW. indeed, praise God from whom all blessings flow.
it's like one huge burden has slippied off my shoulders.
and yet...this victory is kinda bittersweet.
cos even though i'm really proud of NJchoir for getting the GWH after months of
exhausting hard work, at the same time, i wish the other PA CCAs could rejoice together with us.
it's kinda sad, that sometimes effort is not recognised, simply because of the label that awards bring. It's so simple to assume that a choir winning 'Gold With Honours' has worked harder then the choir with a 'bronze'.
so simple, so naive.
cos we all know that's not the case. i daresay each choir(just like each PA CCA) has put in equivalent effort. and the end-result, well, largely depends on the fancy of the judges...
so, it's really rather sad that simply because a lot of PA CCAs didn't get the gwh, people are gg to assume that they are not as good. it takes a really discerning person to look beyond the award and into the team's heart, their love for music and their dedication to bringing music as best as they can to the audience.


don't lose heart! because i believe that ALL of us are deserving of the GWH. who cares what others think(:


haha. my post seems as though we have just lost...but we haven't really(: the choir has won, that's true, but still, the whole situation is kinda sad, isn't it?

that said, I'm EXTREMELY PROUD of nichoir, the comm and the altos(: i think we really pulled through at the last minute, and ignoring the results, i think that each of us is a winner because we brought JUSTICE to the song...
even now, echos of the song and colourful picture we painted is still flipping through my mind...
honestly, i don't think i have EVER EVER EVER felt like this! it was strange. it was like before my eyes, although i was focusing on misslim, i was transported to 3 different 'worlds' within the 10 minutes.


the victory is so surreal. and yet, so bittersweet.
