"hangin there, My child...."

It's been a rough week. I have just finished my vocal lesson and I think this is the "worst" singing. I don't feel like having a sore throat, but still, the singing is a bit "not delicious" a.k.a. BAD. I'm not sure why.

Maybe because so many things due this week and I seem to be drowned and maybe couldn't even breathe. Well, I participated in the Oratorio Chorus and we just had our concert this past Tuesday. The rehearsal was just fine, we had to stay about half an hour longer during the last two rehearsals but that's okay. The problem was I think our "guest conductor" either put too much target or not enough effort to get things done. After Oratorio rehearsal I have to work in the coffeeshop until 10.30 or 11pm, so that might be one of the causes. Plus, this week I've done many stuffs that due: the LICE class "simulation" on worship service, song arrangement for Musicianship, hymnology quiz&project, the concert. I'm glad it's over. Yes!

However, I still have to finish up several other projects. Plus, preparing for my pre-grad recital in next 3 weeks. I might not be under the weather, but it's just improper rest time, especially if I began to feel sort of headache. Yesterday the weather was quite warm, and today it dropped to 30s I guess, n by the way, I got some snow flurries during the noon.
A bit tired, yes. Scary, yes (what if I can't sing well for the pre-grad). Nervous, yes. Excited, to get it done? Of course.

Oh, well...things will get a lot better in 3 weeks.


...........I’m incapable / You’re all-powerful .....
I lose my way / You are merciful........
I hear the music /And I try to sing along......
You are the author and the orchestra / Of every single song

just released




and





Time really flies. I've just realized that it is November already! It feels like yesterday is still January. Well, Christmas is coming really2 soon. Two things you don't wanna miss on Christmas besides "baby Jesus", is of course... "singing and eating". Forget about eating for a while coz it will surely come. But you might don't want to miss good singing and cool music.
Check this out, today I have to choose between these two and finally decided to get the first. After all, Josh's CD is on the 2nd highest music best seller on amazon.com, hard to beat as always. But I got it from Borders with 30% discount coupon.
Well, they are both different genres and styles, and they're good... but my choice is simply practical, bcoz the Buble album only has 7 songs and I personally don't really prefer those songs 'coz they're not really Christmas carols (although the CD price is cheaper too, half-priced of the other one), but I think I will get it later.....

Enjoy the music!
