♫♪♥ Songwaves ♥♪♫ a.k.a. the choir concert was yesterday~! ((:

Where to begin... well, I went there with Clare (who's dressed in all black :3) but we arrived a little too early so we hung around the bus stop to wait for Geelyn, Janice (with her boyfriend ;D) and (surprise, surprise) Shao Hua. Poor Shao Hua; he was the only boy from our class who attended. D:

Geel & Jan looked sooo lovely~~! I could just marry them on the spot XD And despite my tall heels, I was still shorter than them u.u GAH. Well, I manage to see a few of my juniors, who looked really adorable, and when we arrived outside the auditorium, we whipped out our cameras for some camwhoring photo-taking! (By the way, for photos of yestersay, let me direct you to either Geel or Jan's blogs, since my dad always take like forever to transfer photos from his digi-cam to the computer.) Did I mention how I really like Nanyang High's architecture? It's simply lovely!

When the doors to the auditorium opened for guests to enter, there was so much crowding at the entrance that in the end, you could just go in without showing your ticket to the persons at the door at all! O: Anyway, we managed to secure seats that appeared to be right smack in the middle of the auditorium. (Oh, and I loved the auditorium. It's pretty~ :3)

The concert officially started when the two emcees for the night, Yu Shang & Hazel, came forward to, erm, emcee XD Hazel was fine, but Shang sounded... awkward. Her usually chirpy voice sounded uncharacteristically low on microphone. O: And I'm not too crazy about scripts being used instead of cue cards; it's just not as professional. But then again, you can hardly blame them since I heard from Clare that they only got their emcee scripts earlier that day.

When the curtains were drawn, Clare & I immediately started pointing out the people we recognised, like Haze, Shang, Eleanor, Zheng Yang, Melvyn etc... The program for the concert was first, ten unexciting songs, then an intermission, followed by a song by the choir alumni, comprising of Amanda, Jia Xuan, Dexter, Amirul (who didn't tell me he would be there, which I could've used to convince Haz to go) & Wen Pu, who in my honest opinion, was like a door post there, pardon my bluntness. Then it was the trio of choir boys, who I guess was rather alright, save for one of the guys who sounded...not as nice as the other two.

Finally, the highlight of the night: the Hairspray medley~! Everyone looked sooo cute in their changed outfits! :3 Well, actually, the boys didn't look as decorated as the girls did. A little dull, in my opinion. :/ I thought Fredrika was such a natural out there; she captured my attention most during that segment. (:

So overall, it was a pretty good concert. ^^b

After lots of hugging, photo taking, and saying our hellos & goodbyes, Clare, Amirul & I set off for our bus ride home! We originally planned to go home with Amanda, but we...lost her among the crowds along the way. ;D

Oh my goodness, Turandot by Puccini is going to be performed at the Esplanade from 29 Aug to 1 Sept! *faints* That's after my Prelims, but it's like nearly an impossibility for me to go and see it. ;___;

Turandot is an opera about an icy Chinese princess who refuses to marry any man unless he can answer three riddles. It'll be in Italian with English and Chinese subtitles. [taken from today's newspaper]
