first dae back
first dae was.... afternoon went to visit da jiu’s house, chatted wif cousins until abt 4, then sae bye bye to them father send me to katong holy family to rehearse for chinese new yr mass. this yr got alot of songs. by the time reach there abt 430+ n shortly after aunty n sean came. sean sit sit listen awhile then went to sacristy to prepare his stuff as altar boy. mass was scheduled to start at 6, but i had to check n double check all my chord sequences for all the songs wif her, n choirmaster last minute made some change of keys, so basically despite going so early, we didn’t have time to rehearse much, n so when the time came to play entrance hymm at 6, we were all keeping our fingers crossed.
surprisingly hor, everything went beautifully n the mass was really enjoyable, for once. this time, there was not a single glitch. personally, i’m quite proud of myself n my playing. n by now ar, already seasoned fit, so i don’t feel nervous anymore
both piano n organ played as one n the choir for once became dam enthu. everybody was unbeat. they sang the post-communion hymm, qian nian wan nian, extremely well n their vocals really soared. n for once i actually can believe that the lao tus choir is actually better than nj’s but well, i’m digressing. thar post-communion hymm is probably the most powerfully enduring n memorable hymms we ever performed. i at least, will remember it for long long time to come. i still hear echoes of it in my head.
this year’s chinese new year mass is the most memorable one i ever participated in, if not the best.
after mass had dinner at baiduri. me n sean both wore exactly the same outfit todae. cute. then me n sean both got high trying to confuse shu-en thru sms. WHUAHAHAHA dam funny la. haha. haha.
first dae was.................fun. was gd stuff. just gets better n better every yr. later after lunch will visit san jiu’s house, probably’ll b there til dinner.
