Here we come a carolling~

Friday (18th Dec 2009) was my first ever carolling session with NUS Choir, or perhaps my first ever carolling session in my life ^^. We performed at Marina Square which we started at 7pm. We had to report at 6pm but I reached there at 6.30pm due to heavy traffic which I did not expect. But it was not only me, there were few other choristers who were late too. Thus, there goes the warning about our punctuality. To make matters worse, we did not give a good performance, in other words, a performance which was far below par to the standards of a NUSChoir T.T. I did sing my part well since I memorised it but a choir is always a choir; a combination of four different sections which adds up together to form a colourful hues of melodies. When one person fumbled on his or her part, it will affect the others as well. Anyway, we still somehow managed to give an overall OK performance but of course, to our music director, it was not good news. Now skipping to today's carolling, the performance today in my opinion, was at the very least much better than the first. Together with other choristers, we performed at West Coast Plaza, a smaller and lesser people shopping mall, not to mention nearer to where I stay too XD. I enjoyed today's carolling and I can feel the christmas energy swirling around us as we were getting more and more excited throughout the list of songs we sung. We started sweating as well as blood rushed in our bodies when we sang fast carols 0.0. Nah...we were all sweaty because the air-conds are not strong enough compared to Marina Square. Ok, better don't complain >.< All in all, I still love carolling, going through ups and downs with the seniors and other freshies and most importantly, spreading the joy and merry spirit of Christmas, the day when Christ shed his blood and life to forgive our sin and His reborn with our singing. May the folks out there enjoyed and loved our carollings ^^ . Merry Christmas~!
