A BIG BIG CONCLUSION:
PRAGUE RAWKS!!
hurhur. i'm so happy that i went to prague. a very beautiful and nice place, so beautiful that i cant believe that it is for Man to live in.
Reach Prague after a 15 hours of flight (including transit at Amsterdam). When we reached, something very sad happened already: one of my nice nice juniors lost her wallet on the plane. then all of us were felt so sorry for her. then, after changing our currency, which is from euros to korunas, we got out of the airport. well, i hate the checkin in and checkin out. coz im always stopped by the immigration officers as i don't look like the one in the passport. Guobao too and Ziyi too!! Guobao looked like a ah mah and Ziyi looked like convict. hahas. and when we got out of airport, we know what is called 'freezing cold'.
then we got onto the bus and on our way to hotel, i enjoyed the scenery a lot! all of us were so amazed by the architectual design and the peace and tranquility that you will never see in Singapore. it's so old old kind. very got 'feel'!the place very beautiful la. im lazy to upload photos on my blog. if you want to see pictures go to my msn space: http://thedogfoodie.spaces.live.com/
i love the Charles' Bridge lor. so beautiful!
the competition was really a big open eye see (direct translation from chinese)! the other countries so so PRRRRRRRRRRRROOOOOOOOO la! they sing with right notes, right mood and hit each note at least with a 99.9999% accuracy. ok lar, maybe not that accurate. but they weren't really very flat or sharp. MOST IMPORTANTLY, they are not scared when they on stage. compared to us, i can really say that they enjoy what they are doing. we sang in a castle, a church and the national house. all very beautiful buildings. i love them. very different places to sing in. we were more relaxed during the competition. but ar, we were real FLAT! hahas. but not bad, we got a 2nd placing and silver. quite happy. we got something unexpected. i thought we didn't really sing that well. we were in the youth category (16 - 25) coz we sound too ADULT? hahas. we were supposed to be in children la. but not bad. youth will require us to work harder! heehee. i love the Ukraine female choir in youth category. they slide their notes down from a high note to a low note. all very together! and the notes were very PRECISE.
hahas. we even make good friends with South African Choir and the Kazakhstan children choir. the south africans very nice. they are a high lot. and the kids from kazakhstan are so CUTE! lots of us turned into peadophiles lor. hahas. one of the south african choir boys looks like yita lor. wear braces and a bit toot and cute de. ahahas. and a guy confess his love to jiamin saying, WO HAI NI! hahas. then we laughed like mad!lols. we went to mozart museum! his house in prague. so cool. we saw a lot of his stuff inside. even the manuscript for Magic Flute. he even finish his opera Don Giovanni in that house. so cool! oh yes. DON GIOVANNI! hahas. we went to watch a puppet show for that. we spent 400 crowns per ticket (14 crowns = 1 SGD). and yes. i slept 400 crowns away! hahas. adeline was holding my head throughout. coz i was lying back on her as she was sitting behind me. hahas. thanks ADE!
lol. i enjoy the tour very much. it really made me grow. i learnt a lot about myself and others. ATTITUDE. yes. i gain an insight about 'Attitude'. i also closed the gap between the choir and i. this tour really bonded us together as we went throught thick and thin in the tour, be it nice nice sightseeing trips or scolding sessions by our teachers. and it made us learnt to stand by our friends. it's definitely not only a tour for us to see how small Singapore is (choirs from round the world so pro la) but also a tour for us to face the mistakes that we didn't dare to face. i really love PRAGUE!
