Wow>.....Finally finish our caroling at BUgis and Parkway Parade...wahaha...
But there is still another 2 more carolings at HOtel Rendevous!...on 24,25/12/2005!..
Wonder how does this Hotel looks like...hope it has some grand lobby or stage for us to perform..haha...n not some Ulu uLU place...

24/12/2005- 7.30 to 8.30
25/12/2005-1.00-1.30

these are the currently confirmed dates...

Talking abt the 2 caroling sessions at Parkway and 3 sessions at BUgis...it is somehow interesting and enjoyable...but it is quite tired...n since we dint manage to memorise all the scores...cos got abt 17 songs??....haha...so we hold a black file while singing.

At Parkway...we went caroling in the afternoon...at abt 1pm...den tat time dun have much ppl shopping around..hence the crowd doesnt look big...but we still have to perform..cos we were paid already..haha..1/2hr for $500 i think?...haha..
At 2 pm...we move into the parkway mall to carol again...now...we split into 2 grps...den we sing again for 1/2 hr..the funny thing is tat...there r more ppl coming to watch us...probably theres aircon inside..den ppl are willing to stay n listen...
After everything..we got abt 2 hr break to make our way to bugis..for another session of caroling..

At bugis..everything is the same for 3 days..sang almost the same songs n also have the same EMCEE...lol..but the crowd at bugis is more bigger than at parkway...probably we are caroling in the evening...n there is also a big shelter for ppl to move in n listen to us singing...

On the last day of this 3 days of caroling..i had my 1st chance of conducting the choir..partly because sam,muihia,and justin got their own caroling..den they could not make it on the last day..it starts at parkway den ends at bugis...
After this, i jus realised it is not tat easy to conduct...n not just abt moving hands n body...still need to lead the choir..correct tempo all tat...start n end together..n also have to aware of the pitching of each sections...this not much to worry..as we have learnt all the songs le..haha..

After conducting the 2 sessions..i realised i didnt conduct 2 songs well like the others...
'DingDOng MErrily on HIgh', and ' Deck the halls'...
'DingDong'...i conducted a little bit too fast at bugis..cos got ppl kp say it is too slow..somemore i couldnt hold any scores tat time...

'Deck the halls'...not everyone is comfortable with the song...but no choice cos we have no songs left except this n 'We wish u a merry Xmas'...so we chose this lo...haha...problem is tat day we dun have enough boys...den still got the TB part...haizz...but nvm lo..jus sing as it is the last song...

I found other songs ok...cos we end n start together( at bugis only)...cos i have warmed up at parkway liao...n mistakes committed are all at parkway..haha...cos it is the 1st time ...so hope ppl can forgive..haha..Tats all la...tired liao...haha..

'MERRY CHIRSTMAS'!
