First Competition

Wow, competition already? The usual competition routine. Wake up very early, get to school by 7. Leave by 8.30. All ready and geared up, we were wearing our blue 'baju kurung' for the girls and 'baju melayu' for the guys. Put our makeup on and we were all ready and set to go. The competition was held in Puchong some multi-purpose hall about 30 minutes away from school. Our turn was somewhere in the middle.

Being a short person, I was placed at the end of the first line. Holy crap!! I was the first to lead the team in. Oh boy my head was spinning up a tornado. I controlled myself and focus to sweep away the anxiety. I actually tripped on my skirt while walking up the side of the stage. The crowd weren't exactly quiet especially the children's choir which already competed earlier on in the first session. Susanna and Shyh Poh were somewhere in the audience watching and listening so as my Sister who came to support us.

Listening to the choir for the starting notes for the first number, Perwira and watching Seok Kuan the conductor steadily beating out the tempo for the song the piano started and we started singing. The starting of the song perwira started of with a big impact and had a dramatic and also grand beginning which drew the audience and crowd to a sudden silence. All eyes were fixed on us now. The next song was the West Side Story medley. Again conductor gave us the pulse of the song and also reminding us of the rapid emotion change of the medley

West Side Story medley started off with the first song 'America' It was a lively and fast song. The second song was 'One hand, one heart' third 'Somehow, someday, somewhere' Three different cocktail of emotions into one song. America started off with a fast beat and had to clap really loudly.

Finally! Results! They started to announce the Children's Choir category first. The winner was SJK (C) Lick Hung a Chinese Elementary school. The emcee took forever to get over with the speeches and etc. gosh. Get to it already would you?!?
