The Odyssey 2008

Why am I always blogging about the major events?

Maybe because I only realise the existence of this blog then. (sheepish look)

Anyway, it was a fantastic concert - well, of course there were the pitching and rhythmic problems, but that aside, the repertoire was excellent fare, the musicians were passionate, and even the audience was a pretty helpful bunch haha. Concerts always make one feel exhilarated, but this one was particularly heartwarming because you could really feel that the music had gone out to the audience. Maybe because SCH is cosier than Esplanade, but to see all of them cheer so loudly when dong1 ended, was a clear sign of the success the concert had achieved.

What I think really makes it even more of a success, is what the juniors thought of RJCO at the end of it all. I've been blogsurfing (haha) and it really shows - from the initial discomfort of the seemingly lackadaisical attitudes of fellow members/change in environment/conductor, to an attitude finally embracing all these differences as necessary to achieve that final glowing moment on stage. It's even more heartening to note that these juniors are also going all out to declare that they will strive hard for SYF next year as well. Haven't really seen such strong desires in a long time! I mean, I don't remember our batch being all that gungho even after the Esplanade concert haha...remember our sad attendances in Term 3...(oops okay). AND laozhou says our batch was united, so that says a lot hahaha.

Well then, shall ask the juniors to come up with another blog 'cos this one doesn't seem to allow any more people to come write in it other than KB and I - or rather, nobody knows how to configure it so that it will be more welcoming. Meanwhile, it's just nice to know that RJCO is getting along - pretty nicely (:

P.S. Thanks to the xyz juniors in particular, you guys made me feel part of you all again (:
