Finally Back.

Firstly, I would like to say sorry to the seniors for letting all of you down. Thank you all for being so proud of us when we didn't manage to achieve what we were supposed to.

Next, I would like to say a big thank you to the Year twos who came on this trip. Sacrificing two weeks of lessons in Year Two to go with the choir for this competition is a huge decision to make, and it was pretty selfless of all of you to have done so much for us. Thank you all for putting in so much for the choir. Like what Mr Kwei said, we really treasure all of you, from the bottom of our hearts. You guys have demonstrated the true spirit of VJchoir - No Man Is An Island. So thank you all very very much.

Lastly, to the Year Ones, we have so much to do and accomplish. It's time we all reflected on our attitudes, and our commitment to the choir. VJchoir is not just any choir, that is something that should be imbued into us from Day One. If you don't already know that, shame on you, and get that into your head asap. We will bring glory back next year, and this is something that we all need to strive towards, together. This is only the start of our VJchoir journey together, let us all achieve what we know we are capable of achieving. We shouldn't wait till it's too late to regret. Let there be no more regrets next year. Year Ones, we can do this:)

Just as a last note, I would like to say this to those who are disgruntled about whatever's been mentioned on this trip.
It is a fact that you guys abandoned us for this trip. You know for yourself if you chose not to come on this trip. Don't be angry just cause your name was mentioned. Even if Mr Kwei didn't say that, the choir knows that deep down inside too. You weren't blamed entirely for our failure, but you guys have to face it, it is partly your fault too. We are one choir, and you guys chose to volunteringly leave us. You were valuable, whether you think this way or not. Mr Kwei didn't conveniently shift all the blame to you, he just mentioned you guys. He knew that we didn't perform well on stage and he scolded us for that. So you guys shouldn't just hear fragments of the story and start ranting about what he said when you don't even know what he actually said and meant. Besides, the fact that you guys are angry shows that you have a trace of 'guilty consciousness' in you doesn't it? Mr Kwei loves this choir, and we all love and respect him too, whatever he said was the truth and you guys know it yourself. It's time to reflect instead of getting angry about small things.


Oh well, other then the losing part.
This trip was a blast. :)
Will upload photos soon!
