Well time really flies, cos the first week of school has already come and gone!

I didn't even get to audition for orchestra...long story. So anyway i'm now singing in the choir (because whoever is not in the orchestra is automatically in the NAFA chorus) and frankly speaking its real fun. We're singing for SLO's (Singapore Lyric Opera)production at the end of this month, Puccini's Turandot. Its real fun learning the Italian words. Choir's definitely fun with Doktor Goh and Yeh Tsung. Oh and all our costumes will be individually tailored, and the measurements have been taken. The take a lot of measurements per person, like 37 or so different body measurements. One of my friends said that he felt thoroughly molested XD fortunately it was women who did the measurements for us...or else our girls would scream haha. Its definitely gonna be a great experience, after all how often does one get to participate in an opera at all?

The computer room's changed alot. All the PCs have been changed to MACs...i'm familiar with mac interface so it's no problem for me. Its just so cool...so zen haha. No more CPU bulk; everything is in the widescreen monitor. nice!

Lessons were fine, work starts to pour in...but generally enjoyable for now..

Our gamelan ensemble is growing bigger and bigger! Four have graduated, namely yanya, natasha, amy and alicia, but newbies like aditya, gabriel pang, hautzeng, hutch, meng jia, bo yang, ernest thio and joanne tan have joined our gamelan ensemble, making it overflow! ahh! not enough suitable instruments for them! haha we'll soon solve that problem...

That's supposed to be it for now...well tata...oh btw...happy belated 19th birthday Joe Tan Pin Khoon! Though i know you'll probably not see this anyway...
