14th Jan 2009 - A Blog Revival?
Calling all Jubilate people! Remember the days when everyone blogged? I absolutely loved reading the debriefs after big events. And that's what it's all about, isn't it? Having your words heard by everyone else! So I'll go first. Check me out at: kurufurudo.blogspot.com And, if you want your blog publicised, drop a tag and let me know so I can include it in our list. Cheers, Cliff |

Christmas Midnight: Old skool offertory hymn, Clifford's favorite. This was supposed to be combined with another song, but there wasn't a need - wasn't as packed as it usually is during Christmas Midnight. =(

Christmas Midnight: Yet another impromptu solo, this time, from Steffi. Irene on the emotional soliloquy, and Steffi again on the ending.

Firstly, I'd like to apologize to everyone and especially Da Masta Endru, for playing crap organ today. =( No excuses, I simply coz I woke late, and was unprepared for the 'newish' parts of Mass today, so sorry Endru, my deepest apologies for putting you on the spot. Secondly, just wanna say thanks everyone who came, today. You made us feel extra good, coz it's really uplifting for us, coz we're trying our best to put everything together, given the short time span of this year's caroling practice period, and it was really trying on us the past few practices, because there so much to cover, and so little time. So really: Thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you! And my apologies to everyone for raising my voice abit. Hope you all understand that we have a limited span of time, and if you're here making noise, it takes MORE time to teach others. All of us here are mature enough to understand this. Fun is fun, but would you rather we have fun now, and f*ck up later, or be serious now and have fun later? Pardon my French. I would love the Choir to be all fun and no scolding, all laughs and no black faces, but please understand what we're dealing with. We have 2 more, at most 3, practices before caroling, and more importantly, the big Christmas Eve and Christmas Day masses. I'd really appreciate it if everyone could be more conscious of your surroundings and how your behaviour affects the practice, and the people CONDUCTING THE PRACTICE. Like it or not, you've agreed to be part of the Choir, and with that comes a bit of discipline on everyone's part. Simply, show some respect man, for Dawn and I. We're in the business of singing, not talking. Wanna talk, go join lectors. (Ooooh. Awkward.) I'm gonna say a final THANK YOU to everyone for putting up that performance after Mass today. For me, it was a first reminder for me that singing and playing in THIS choir, is what I've been craving for, all this time I've been away. And it's also the first time in a long time, I've felt so friggin' good about Christmas. Thank you all! |
