Choir for TARUC launching ceremony

Yesterday, my TARCollege has officially become a University College. It was an unforgettable occasion to be the only performance team for the University College Launching Event. Because of this launching performance and performance for society day, we had spent almost most of the time of our holiday here. And finally we did both of the performances amazingly in overall.

Happy choir team after completing the performance. 

Before the actual performance, we have been through few times rehearsal to make sure everything can run perfect and smoothly. But actually I did not feel tired at all, only excitedness! And we had fun during the practice and rehearsal too.  

The ceremony started around 2.30pm. By the time the college hall was crowded with audiences, and somehow I started to feel nervous thinking about the performance later. I guess I kinda having crowd phobia. I enjoyed listening to the saxophone music being played before the starting of ceremony, it calmed my mind magically. Of course, me and my choir gang would not be just sitting there and listening to the music, we sing along indeed!  

After the launching and video presenting, it was our turn to perform choir! I never expect it could be that fast, our performance was one hour after. What I do when I feel nervous, I will keep motivating everyone like a boss: 'keep calm and be relax', 'yes, we can do it'! Telling others not to be nervous but actually I am the one who afraid, lol~ We performed the Rasa Sayang at first, then Satu Malaysia, and Laman Song as the last song. Definitely, the Laman song is the climax among the three songs, whereby we accidentally tuned the touching level to the max! Although the song has been created in the 80s, however there are many of the tarcians or even ex-tarcians never ever heard of it before. 

我们都爱你拉曼,悲欢一起品尝,爱这里的浪漫,爱这里的红砖 
我们都在拉曼,唱出拉曼的歌,用自己的风格,唱出自己的歌

Thanks to our Ms Ang, my choir team, all the lecturers and staff performing together with us for making this performance a successful one. 

Met our admire Federal Constitution lecturer aka sifu here, Mr Chia! Look like his daughters isn't it?

Dear tarcians, start from today onwards we can proudly call ourself as uni students. Therefore, be more mature and treasure the uni life we have here!
Dear choir members, 
The hectic semester break is almost coming to an end. I am sure the time we spent together for intensive choir practices and performances would be our best memory collection. Those bittersweet and tiring days. I feel sad when thinking about some of our members are going to leave soon. We meet people for a reason, so the only reason we meet is because of music! This is cool right? You guys rock TARUC choir! 
Please allow me to confess here, well, I LOVE CHOIR TEAM SO MUCH!!! <3
