A little bit of encouragement just before syf

hello(:
My first time posting on this blog.Even though u should be sleeping by now(yijing's orders), this is a little bit of encouragement for tmr.
On Friday Liu ls told me that we could actually have a fair chance of getting gwh. It means we really have the ability to excel and we are not much worse than other schools. We could have been better than them if we tried even harder, but there's no point in saying that now. All of us in pipa liuqin are incredible people. I feel blessed to have such hardworking and fun people around me.
Just be confident and dont be nervous tmr. Give your best and concentrate. We can get gwh if we really want it(: Anyway,we deserve a gwh.I sure yaozhang would agree with me.haha.

Gold with Honours, or not?

Hey guys,

By the time you are reading this, you probably would have already known the results for SYF. I would like to acknowledge the time and effort put in by everyone for this competition =)

Zhi Hui mentioned that there would be a high chance of us getting Gold with Honours, or rather, that's what he implied. Well, as I'm posting this before the SYF, and being the pessimist that I am, I suspect we might only be able to achieve a Gold, with Gold with Honours just out of our reach. If we do get only a Gold, there's no point feeling sad about it. Gold is already quite a huge improvement considering that just a few months ago, Zhi Hui stated that our standard was low Silver. It's better to reflect on the process. In the midst of Project's Day, homework and other stoff, we have tried our best to improve as a Tanbo section, sometimes at the expense of not handing in assignments on time, etc. We have given our best, and that itself, is an achievement.

If we do get a Gold with Honours, then this post is total crap and YIPPEE! =D

Cheers,

Laozhun

Lame Stuff

Hey guys,

I AM VERY WORRIED! (for syf)

On a hapier note, I think I have evolved into a retard! Remember this flowchart?

Laozhun -> Retard -> Average -> Quite Pro -> Genius -> Godly -> Beyond-Godly

Now, BEHOLD!

Retard(Laozhun) -> Average -> Quite Pro -> Genius -> Godly -> Beyond-Godly

Heh, can I make it to average?

Cheers,

Laozhun

Last 3 Days

Extra practice tomorrow 2pm-5pm in co room. If you have afternoon lessons, come after your lesson. Remember to change your strings too.

The past one week, we have seen some of you improved greatly. The people whom I think really have been working especially hard and have improved so much are:

• Kenneth Leong,
• Ping Xi,
• Benedict and
• Jia Wen

We have 3 days left to SYF. Keep fighting. For most of us, it is our last syf, we must fight for our school. All of you are my really really best friends. And to see everyone working together so united, it is the best feeling on earth. No matter what happens in the end, pipa liuqin has given me so many good memories. Continue working harder Pipa Liuqin!

Chiu Yin for Chairman

Hey guys,

This is an advertisement? And the message is:

VOTE FOR CHIUYIN FOR THE NEXT CHAIRMAN!

Basically, Chiu Yin has applied for the Chiarman position, but he doubts that he will become one. So we must prove him WRONG. I have absolute confidence that Chiu Yin will be come the next Chairman. Haha.

If you want an overview as to why ChiuYin should be the next Chairman, take a look at this Pipa-Liuqin evolution continuum

Laozhun -> Retard -> Average (Sec 1s) -> Quite Pro (You, unless you are Yao Zhang, ChiuYin or the lesser Laozhun) -> Genius -> Godly (Chiu Yin) -> Beyond-Godly (Yao Zhang)

As for the next Tanbo SL, quite a few opted for that position. I'm undecided :(

But WAIT! WAIT! WAIT!

Voting won't be available until June, so the focus now should be on SYF. I think getting Gold for SYF shouldn't be a problem once I stop screwing up the 155671234567123456... part. I must practice more to move up the continuum.
As for Gold with Honours, we must feel the music! Technically speaking, Gold with Honours requires the movement of various body parts in a drunken-like fashion so as to capture the attention of the judges. Movements must have syncronization and be at the right time with the right amount. I'm not very good at this.

In short,
Gold: Practice
Gold with Honours: Feel the music

SOS
Finally, this is a cry for help. Due to my forgetful nature, I've not emailed the full Pipa contact list to Yong Zhi. I need you to help me get Joel Tan Shu Jing's Class, Home Number, Mobile Number and Email Address. HELP! If you manage to find him or spot him somewhere, just ask him nicely and say this is for the contact list?

Cheers,
Laozhun

Reminder rgd this sat

Hi guys,

Extra xiaozu this sat is from 1pm-3.30pm. Because the dunman high concert is at 5pm. Wear uniform to school. Bring extra clothes to change into for the concert. Meet outside co room. Whose instrument is in the co room? We are not sure if Wu LS can help us open the co room tmr. You still have to come even if your instrument is in the room.

Next xiaozu will be on Monday 4-5.30pm, meet outside co room. Those without instruments have to come.

12days left to SYF. Go go go!!!

Xiaozu

Dear Pipa Liuqin,

We got to have extra xiaozu. Wed is now for extra dazu. But it is not enough. We really need to work harder. SYF is really really near. Imagine what would happen if we do not get the gold with honours. How would you feel. We experienced that last syf, it was a terrible feeling. I do not want any of you to go through that feeling or have any regrets after syf. We are half way there, why not just put in everything just for the last few weeks. And these few weeks are the last moments we can be together. After syf everyone will be slacking. There is no other times we can work so closely together and show others what we can do as HCI Pipa Liuqin. Pipa Liuqin have a very strong unity, so we need to use it and improve on our skills.

For future practices, please make full use of the time and concentrate. I understand you all have a lot to cope with, so use xiaozu time and meng lian, then go home you can spend more time on your work. As for practices, we are having it on Mondays 4-5.30pm, Thursdays 3.30-5pm, Saturdays 10am-1pm. It will start this Thursday. As for this thursday, since it is pday, if you all want can push earlier. I will ask Wu LS to open co room but for those days he cannot, then we will have it elsewhere like xiaozu room or canteen. And bring back your instruments after every co, starting this tuesday.

Let's do this ok? We will work together. Do not be afraid of anything, you have our support in pipa liuqin. Whatever problems we will help one another.

Oh and Pipa, I think you all quite good already, practise more then it will be better. To Liuqin, Kenneth, Benedict, Pingxi and Joel, you all are improving a lot a lot. You all were super good on friday in xiaozu. Continue working harder!
