@Monday, January 29, 2007
So it has been like 3 days since i've heard maybe the most outrageous news i've heard in my entire life, and initially thinking that it has ruined my whole of half the year and with nothing to look forward and achieve towards to. And all the tough practices we (ip2s) have gone through initially seemed all washed down the drain to a bottomless pit. WTH, you tell me, what has age got to do with singing? Does it even benefit or place other jc choirs at a disadvantage in any way? It may seem reasonable to implement this rule if the reason was because of benefitting somebody else, but WTH, i don't understand the rationale behind this. I have come to learn that people do things because of personal benefit, but this is like a situation where YOU DON'T GAIN ANYTHING. NO OPPORTUNITY COST, NO COMPARATIVE ADVANTAGE. >.<" It really makes no sense to me, and look at how many ip1s and 2s' feelings are you hurting? We (ip2s) have worked so hard ever since we've gotten into jc just to match up to them, and in the end you are telling us that there is no point in doing this because we can't take part in the SYF like they do? You should be in our shoes mann. But so much for being self-centered. Looking back, it was all because of self-centered-ness that i teared anyway. Maybe so did everyone else. I knew it was the wrong reason to cry, so i tried to hold my tears back, but to no avail anyway. Tammy said it was human to cry, and that everybody can't help being self-centered. But i won't be if i could help it, 'cuz i don't particularly find self-centered people a good thing. So what if i couldn't do a solo? They'll find a new one, maybe a better one anyway, though i felt a tinge of disappointment, but that's the way life goes. Maybe there'll be other opportunities as time goes. So what if the choir couldn't have the ip1s and 2s to sing for SYF? They'll just adapt to the changes and work harder. They can make it. As i said, nobody is indispensable. Plus people are made to adapt to changes in their environment, so njchoir will surely find their own way to what we want to achieve. But if i could do something to change the situation, i would. But what in the world can an ip2 do? Even my parents think its no big deal... Aiya, no choice, have to accept reality... And hopefully hope for some sort of a miracle to happen. Luck has been by my side all these years, after all. =PJiayou njchoir! No matter what, we'll work and work towards our ultimate goal for the year, not gold with honours for syf, but to know that we have done our best and contributed whatever we could with no regrets.
