CONGRATULATIONS TO CHUNG CHENG HIGH SCHOOL (MAIN) CHINESE ORCHESTRA FOR GETTING GOLD WITH HONOURS FOR SYF 2009!!!!

WHOOTS!!!! This is a feeling i never felt before... the ecstasy of being part of this historic period..
We've come so close for too many times.. and finally... our little juniors finally managed to bring the once- elusive honour back to our dear school...

Haha i can be proud to say i helped in a way! Slept for only 1 hour plus on sunday night as i was busy listening to recordings of their playing, analysing scores and imaginary-conducting.. then went to school with constant headaches and conducted for around 2 hours for their last practice in the morning... I think i managed to raise their standard by a bit.. but every bit counts... the difference between gold and GOLD WITH HONOURS!!!

for some weird reason.. i was the ball of nerves at SCH though i wasnt the one playing.. Cicada song ( i think quite a lousy piece, sorry PYT) wasnt very good.. as there were many small mistakes.. but the Da Di Hui Chun was EPIC!!! Those lil kids really played that song with their hearts and that alone i feel was worthy of a GWH..

Ironically when results came out.. the seniors were the ones who were shouting the loudest! The little boys were jumping up and down... while the girls just sat there and weeped with joy...
The touching moment came when Ms (iron lady) Tay hui cheng teared as well... our dearest teacher in charge since my batch who really really took care of us and our juniors very well...


If any juniors are reading this...

Please do not be complacent and rest on your laurels after our GWH feat... Also.. do not look down on other CCAs which have not achieved the same levels you have nor be selfish and feel that GWH only belongs to the CO... Be humble and work hard towards continued success!

"TODAY I AM PROUD OF CHUNG CHENG... TOMORROW CHUNG CHENG WILL BE PROUD OF ME!!!"

CONGRATS CCHMSCO!!!
