Do you remember?

Friday, May 18th, 2007

Do you remember the first day you receive a strange phone call with this really loud and noisy person on the end of the line telling you: "Hoi… Let’s sing!"

Do you remember the first time we gathered together at the small little room after our standard six graduation and sung little octaves together?

Do you remember the first time we staged during Simshen’s annual concert and sung "Worm Worm Fly" (Lolx) in ACAPELLA, and was loved by almost all the audiences (and ourselves)?

Do you remember the first time when we named ourselves and had our own first concert dressed like milkmaids and milkman and black?

Do you remember the first sarong we wore?

Do you remember the first time we went for competition and it was already a HUGE INTERNATIONAL CHORAL FESTIVAL and we brought home a gold and silver medal?

Do you remember how we yelled and screamed like morons, jumped and danced like monkeys and made everyone "sweat" when the MC announced the results?

Do you remember how we don’t care what people think of us and do all sorts of CRAZY things like sing on the street (Masjid Jamek), on the stairs, in the field, near the pool…nearly in the toilet?

Do you remember our BBQs, birthday celebrations, Merdekas, New Year Count-downs, and every event that we could celebrate together, we … celebrated together?

Do you remember the first medley we sang?

Do you remember our yellow tee-shirt that has an angel and devil printed on it that we proudly wear and walk around as a group, not afraid that people will laugh at?

Do you remember our very own first scripted musical made of all sorts of chap-palang music and had a crazy script to follow it?

Do you remember the laughters and tears that we went through together?

Do you remember every member that left and why they left?

Do you remember the place where we go for practice every Saturday (some times sunday) and some of us have to go extra early to sell hot dogs?

Do you remember the applauses and smiles on all our audiences, because they were touched by the music we so loudly and generously share with all our hearts?

Do you remember that you sung because you love to sing and not because you NEED to sing?

Do you remember the best of friends that you met and made and are greater and closer friends with them ever since?

Do you remember our very own musical that made audiences cried?

Do you remember how we all squeezed like sardin in that little recording studio and sung Hold On Tight together?

Do you remember our song?

Do you remember?

Do you remember?

Do you remember…The LittleNoise Choir?

If you don’t remember, maybe you should start remembering now…

If you cannot remember still, then you should start making some memories to remember.

"You may always leave the LittleNoise Choir, but the choir never leaves you."

Somewhere out there…

Thursday, May 17th, 2007

Somewhere out there
Beneath the pale moonlight
Someones thinking of me
And loving me tonight

Somewhere out there
Someones saying a prayer
That we’ll find one another
In that big somewhere out there

And even though I know
How very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing
On the same bright star

And when the night wind
Starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping
Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there
If love can see us through
Then we’ll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true

And even though I know
How very far apart we are
It helps to think we might be wishing
on the same bright star

And when the night wind
Starts to sing a lonesome lullaby
It helps to think we’re sleeping
Underneath the same big sky

Somewhere out there
If love can see us through
Then we’ll be together
Somewhere out there
Out where dreams come true…

It’s really funny how the funny and lovely things sparkle in life, how wonderful they could be seen and felt but never owned. Really like this song~

Rope Skipping

Thursday, May 10th, 2007

I failed rope skipping… not exactly "failed" larr… cuz teacher’s giving me a second chance. But… it’s not like I’m going to PASS it.

It’s like this. My hands and feet DO NOT co-ordinate very well…. I jump like this: "Hand once, feet twice." Not the usual: "hand once, feet once." So… I can’t make the passing mark… which is at 120 times in 60 seconds. That’s to PASS only… to get good marks, you must reach 170 times in 60 seconds. WITHOUT stopping.

*WAILS*

The teacher’s making me change my way of rope skipping… says her: SKIP 15 MINUTES A DAY! CHANGE! I BELIEVE YOU CAN DO IT.

Me: =_=""" (say very easy larr… I’ve been skipping like this since I was like 2 years old lerrr… not like I cannot skip, you make me skip 1000 times larr. aiyorr)

So… AHHHHHHH.

Hate Rope Skipping… why must we have P.E. EXAMS???? In UNIVERSITIES????? Not like it’s my MAiN SUBJECT. I don’t STUDY P.E…. I am NOT going to TEACH P.E> NOR am I going to rope-skip in Olympics… WHY~~~~~

*goes practice*

My teacher wants me to get the rope skipping thing right by the end of this semester… which is in 2 months time. @.@ Kill me. I’m gonna fail P.E.

About Love

Thursday, May 10th, 2007

Chelsea posted this on the bulletin… I’ve also read it from somewhere else… But I still think it’s nice to read. It’s especially satisfying when you reach the last one. =) Nice to keep…

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel, and then regret it.

2. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift.

3. Love is when you take away the feeling, the passion, and the romance in a relationship and find out that you still care for that person.

4. A sad thing in life is, you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be, and you just have to let go.

5. When the door of happiness closes, another opens. But often at times we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which has been opened for us.

6. The best kind of friend is the kind whom you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you have ever had.

7. It is true that we do not know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives.

8. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Do not expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart. But if it does not, be content that it grew in yours.

9. There are things you would love to hear that you would never hear from the person whom you would like to hear them from; but do not be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says
it from his heart.

10. Never say goodbye if you still want to try. Never give up if you
still feel you can go on. Never say you do not love a person anymore if you cannot let go.

11. Love comes to those who still hope although they have been disappointed, to those who still believe although they have been betrayed, to those who still love although they have been hurt before.

12. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

13. Do not go for looks; they can deceive. Do not go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Hope you find the one that makes you smile.

14. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real! Hope you dream of that special someone.

15. Dream what you want to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be. Because you have only one life and only one chance to do all the things you want to do.

16. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy.

17. Always put yourself in other’s shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the person, too.

18. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. A loving word may heal and bless.

19. The beginning of love is to let those we love just be themselves and not twist them with our own image. Otherwise, we love only the reflection of ourselves we find in them.

20. The happiest of people do not necessarily have the best of everything. They just make the most of everything that comes along their way.

21. Happiness lies for those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched, and those who have tried; for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.

22. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear.

23. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past. You can’t go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches

24. When you were born, you were crying, and everyone around you was =)

Colorgenics

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2007

I got a webbie from a friend, joel (http://www.friendster.com/7809834) … It’s something like a quiz site. Find it very amusing because all you have to do is to click 8 color cubes according to the ones you find it most "harmonious". And then it’ll tell you your personality… Surprisingly, it’s pretty accurate. So I thought I’d share it with all of you: http://www.paulgoldinresearch.com/cg/index.htm

Below is what it has to say about me…

—————————————————————————–

You are very ambitious and because you seek and need recognition, you try in your own way to impress people and you want to be looked up to - to be both popular and admired. You feel that there is a gap which separates you from your fellow man, or woman as the case may be, but this anxiety is an unnecessary one. Keep on the way you are going and you may surprise yourself.

You are a very warm and emotional individual but unfortunately in the past too many people have taken advantage of this sensitive trait. You need aesthetic surroundings, or an equally sensitive and understanding partner with whom to share a warm understanding. You are confined and trapped in a distressing or uncomfortable situation and seeking some way out. Whatever you seem to do to resolve the problem hasn’t worked out.

Fortunately you are able to gain some aspect of relief from someone close to you. You are being unduly influenced by the situation that is all around you. You do not like the feeling of loneliness and whatever it is that seems to separate you from others.

You know that life can be wonderful and you are anxious to experience life in all its aspects, to live it to the full. You therefore resent any restriction or limitations that are being imposed on you and you insist on going it alone.

You are trying to build up your own position and you resist all external influences. You insist that you are your own person and you will not tolerate any outside interference. Decisive and proud, you are true managerial material.

——————————————————————————–

Pretty true eh? =)
