Here's a not-very-motivational speech
Please practice well for the Singapore Youth Festival tomorrow. Remember everything Comrade Yanlei has told us, and apply it to the instrument in hand. We have come a long way since last year when we started learning these two songs; please do your best, and live up to YOUR OWN expectations, because I am sure they are quite high, no?
The key to success is a positive attitude, a.k.a the "excellence mindset". I understand that I am repeating what others have said, but repetition is necessary to get ideas across.
So, play well, and peace off ☮.
--Hanzhang
P.S.
tmr is the big day :O so im here to write a hopefully motivaitonal speech,HAHA. but anyways,as much as we want to get a gold with honours,i think its more important as long as we put in our best,enjoy the process and have fun:D of course if can get GWH would be good lah:) but still,i think guzheng has improved a lot compared to last time in terms of bonding(:D) ,and music standards(i suppose) :D
but no matter what, so long as we put in our best,we'll have no regrets:D i always comfort myself by saying 'i put in my best already so this is the best i can go for now so i'll try better next time^^ ' (esp when i'm like 1 mark to A or something,yeah i use this to comfort myself LOL) don't let cls/ms teo down!!although yeah we really want gwh... :/ but IF and i say IF the judges are blind this year(touch wood touch wood!!),if we did put in our best then its okay:D so long as we do our best!haha yeah.
(i know i'm like a bit the contradictory cos erm.i wish for gwh?:/ so...nvm .___.)
quote arthur: 'excellence mindset:we pwn all.'
yeah excellence mindset yeah!:D LETS JIAYOUS AS ONE GUZHENG!whoo!:D love you all!<3

HELLO!
SYF rehearsal was great!
Even though we will not be playing as loudly, Mr Tay had helped us refined our sound projection and it sounded much clearer and not so za (as according to my recordings).
It is a great relief that we don't have to play until our (my) strings break or mas drop. PHEW. [My strings always break!]
But this gives us a problem with our da xiao sheng (loudness) We must really work very very hard on our movement and da xiao sheng (loudness). Since we are playing softer, the soft parts will be almost soundless! The places where we are suppose to be soft, please only touch the strings/notes and make minimal sound, i.e. not being able to hear yourselves playing, which is CORRECT! The places where we are suppose to be loud is good enough, KEEP IT UP!:D
This are the two main things that we have to take note in order to achieve excellence. JIAYOU! WORK HARD! COOPERATE!
And I can't believe that Murong and Yuru both broke their strings. Next time Murong should give eye contact to signal someone else, like Guyao to play if that really happen again, though it is not very possible as we are playing soft right? [However, do take note of this for future performances:D]
SH guzheng was soooo zai. I heard that Mr Tay asked you all to go home early right! - Meaning that he is satisfied. WOW. Juniors must look up on seniors kays! And learn from them!
JIAYOU FOR SYF EVERYONE!:D:D:D
Guzheng rocks and we love guzheng! <3

Post-concert Photos

Take 1: Jerald is wondering whether he should add bunny ears for Jie Yi (see Mingquan's example).

Take 2: After the first shot was taken (which he probably have yet to realise i think..), Jerald decides to consult his fellow musketeer Arthur Antonio for advice. Alas! Arthur Antonio is too busy (self-absorbed) having his own soliloquy with his rose to share Jerald's woes.
Meanwhile, Rebecca attempts to add a pair of (V^^V) bunny ears for herself (without realising that Mingquan has already done so during the first take), leaving Mingquan looking very bewildered.

Take 3: In the end, Jerald didn't have enough time to execute his plan because the 3rd photo was suddenly taken. And that ends this mini-photo-caption-cum-story abruptly. Oh yea, and everyone lived happily ever after.
This happiness was short-lived for some though -- Wye Inn and Melissa realised that they have not (and have to) sweep the stage.

Jokes aside, good job for the concert everyone!! :) Well done!! Ex-sell-lent!!
With the sacificial of much toil, buckets of sweat (it's really hot outside the PAC) and one bang-zee, we made it!! Thank You (literally, a big thank you) to all those who participated and/or helped in the concert!! :)
