first in history.
St. Margaret's Secondary School Choir : Joie de Vivre
stmarg's choir first ever concert yesterday was fantastic! :D
listening to these girls, not just an ordinary bunch of girls, a bunch of girls who share the same passion for music, who worked towards the same goal, really made me think a lot. and i really feel ashamed compared to them. their commitment, their discipline, their concentration, there is really much for me to learn from them. although there are half of the people on stage i do not know, once they opened their mouths, i was immediately touched by the most beautiful sound i have ever heard. they sang every song with emotions and feelings and that is what i feel is most important to singing: to be able to touch lives of others, regardless of knowing them. although i've heard them practice the songs over and over again, i was once again brought to tears when i heard flying free and an expression of gratitude.
stmarg's choir have indeed grown a lot, all the way when i graduated in 2006! it has only been a short 2 years and the choir is really different from what it was then. these wonderful girls have grown, in terms of the music technicality and maturity. we were a springboard for them and im extremely proud of you girls, extremely proud that i was in stmarg's choir. you guys will always and forever, have a place deep down in my heart! continue to strive, the gold is yours to keep for the next syf if ya'll continue to persevere! i love every single one of you to bitssss! till now, your voices still keeps ringing in my head.

flying free:
There is a place I call my own
Where I can stand by the sea,
And look beyond the things I've known,
And dream that I might be free.
Like the bird above the trees
Gliding gently on the breeze,
I wish that all my life I'd be
Without a care and flying free.
But life is not a distant sky
Without a cloud, without rain.
And I can never hope that I
Can travel on without pain
Time goes swiftly on its way,
All too soon we've lost today.
I cannot wait for skies of blue
Or dream so long that life is through.
So life's a song that I must sing,
A gift of love I must share .
And when I see the joy it brings,
My spirits soar through the air.
Like that bird up in the sky ,
Life has taught me how to fly.
For now I know what I can be
And now my heart is flying free.
to grow in spirit and in music! (:
