phantom of the opera
last night, sweetie and i were deeply enchanted by the voices of the phantom of the opera’s cast; and also very deeply enchanted by the orchestra playing underneath the stage! christine didn’t sing as well as we liked, but raoul and the phantom especially were great! superbly done, well worth the $78! well if you’re wondering why it’s $78, it’s $70 plus $2 sistic charge and $6 for foldable binoculars. haha. we were seated rather far away you know.
very very very good, if you haven’t watched it, do go grab tickets now!! if it’s not too late already, that is. the show ends its run in singapore on 20th may, if i’m not wrong. do catch it! it will enchant the living daylights out of you
hope sweetie enjoyed her advance birthday celebration
fengshan practices are resuming as of tmr! finally! other than having no income whatsoever, it’s even worse to spend a few weeks without band practices! well, i did attend mus’art practices, but limited ones as i had to prepare for my papers, and also prepare for phantom. haha. so anyway, i digressed, fengshan practices are resuming, and from what i heard, we might need to throw in saturday rehearsals as well. that’s cool! keeps me busy, and keeps income coming in. it’s important, cos i’ll be spending most of my ‘family property’ (direct translation from chinese) on the trip! haha.
and of course there’s the SAF Central Band concert, 20th May at Republic Polytechnic Auditorium. and surprisingly, i was thrown the 1st clarinet scores, other than the bass clarinet parts for Prayer and Winanga-Li. must be stanley lah… sabo only… anyway, i look forward to the practices; can finally chat with a few people i haven’t seen in a million years!
NCHS speech day coming up right after that. i’ll be packed when sweetie’s in china! haha.
alright, gotta go prepare, warm up a bit. re-taking my diploma sight-reading component later! stressed… >.<
wish me luck!!
