Reality TV
Singapore Idol's coming back next year in February...
And while everyone seems to be all excited about a certain upcoming *superstar* competition that happens to have an audition at the same time as choir practice... no, no one has my permission to go missing because of this. This goes for all other reasons and excuses I've been hearing about - schedule was released as a letter to your parents - you want to get excused, I want a letter from your parents stating the reason. There's a performance coming up in exactly 1 week and the choir is hardly up to the standard it ought to be.
Remember that a choir is as strong as its weakest member... so don't think that your not coming doesn't make a difference - it does. Not coming wastes everyone's time. We call for the practices because we need them - we all have other things we'd prefer to be doing now that its the holidays, but remember that choir and all kinds of performance require discipline.
Trust someone who has been singing with choirs for more than 14 years - that's YOUR AGE for many of you, so take heed! You don't just answer to me or Mr Goh, but to the reputation of the school. Please get your priorities right.
