Chinese Orchestra Number 15. Temasek Secondary... ... GOLD!
TMSCO really rawks. it really does.
Thank you. To teachers i/c. Sacrificing the weekends alone in the freezing staff room.
Thank you. To Zheng Laoshi. For the sweat and effort you've put in us. For guiding us to achieving our dream.
Thank you. To Mr Oh. For supporting us, all that motivational talks, and the promise of a even shorter hair.
Thank you. To TMSCO alumni. For giving us support, for giving opinions, for being there for us.
Thank you. To TMSCO. For the hundreds of hours you ppl have sacrificed, for the peeling fingers, aching shoulders, cuts on fingers... etc, for being united in the dream of achieving a gold, for never giving up.
Just really thank everyone for making this SYF such a memorable one. for fulfilling the unfinished dream of the alumni, for ending the sec 4's c.o journey with such a deep memory, which will definately be etched in our memories forever. Thank you.

4 more days to SYF. I'm sure everyone's really nervous and stressed now, and not to mention tired with pracitces everyday. wells, 4 more days left only and you can have back your freedom of saturday shopping sprees and sleep until its afternoon. haha. so corny.
Just really hope everyone tries your best okay? Just try your best and you won't leave any regrets behind. Its the last SYF for the sec 4s, first and last for the sec 3s. Please treasure it. 20th April 2005 is probrably the last time you will play the Great Wall Capriccio and Xing Kong in your entire lifetime. I think the sec 4s would know how it feels like to play a song over hundreds of time and then suddenly, you won't ever get to play it again. Remember Feng Nian Ji and Shi Cheng Ying Chun? yeaps. I'm sure the sec 4s still remember the song. Let this SYF be the last time we play the 2 songs and let it also be the best we've ever played before. We can do it! Remember Ms Leong's words!
Pardon me for being naggy. But please do take care of your health these couple of days. Specially protect your delicate fngers, your precious erm, mouth? wrists? arms? oh, whatever. get the idea?
