memorable time at GEM chalet...

let mi juz start w the msg that i gave to some1 abt the magical n memorable nite of guitar chalet... it includes my deepest feelings for GEM... as well as the heart felt emotion of the time spent over there... esp the last part where i noe mr ng muz have spend lots of time preparing for it...

"i need to jot down every single detail that happened 2dae... u might tink i'm being too emotional... but realli... with all these good ppl around mi in guitar... it's simply impossible not to feel anything for them... n such feelings needed to be rmbed... ... listening to our veri own masterpieces... it's hard not to be touched..."


6th june 2005
this is the veri last official meeting of the pioneer batch of GEM... the farewell chalet... b4 all of us j2s will start racing against time to prepare for yet another crucial exam in our life...

the farewell chalet was held at pasir ris coasta sands... mr ng booked n paid for it... spend quite sometime decorating the huge card that shuyan made for mr liauw...trying to tink of wat to write.. then ppl come n there's food... the usual...

oo... shuyan cycled here... so xw borrowed her bike n went cycling... haha... n i tagged along... taking the back seat... (haha.. the front actually..=)) it was fun... i've nv taken a ride w another person cycling... haha... xw is veri skilled... though i still cannot stop myself from screaming every now n then.. haha.. =)

aft bbq n stuff... comes the best part of the nite... performance by mr liauw... played 'memory'... a song that i used to sing in my pri n sec sch choir... indeed... it brought back lots of memories... ...

then mr liauw showed us how to make use of a 10 dollar note to play... put it through the strings alternately... then he played a light hearted song... sounds nice indeed... =P

it's the 1st time i've seen mr liauw perform... he's indeed a pro... when he was playing... i kept my gaze at his fingers as they fly all over the frets... incredible...

okie... this is the best part... though we dun noe the juniors veri well... (had been busy practising 4 syf)... they came up w a few surprises for us... realli sweet of them... ^__^

firstly they sang bridge over troubled waters for us... our syf song... then came the certificate presentation... each of us junior have a cert... certifying our graduation GEM...
[ This is to certify that ______ has graduated
from the
"ROYAL GUITAR ENSEMBLE of MERIDIAN"
and has proven himself/herself worthy
to be the exclusive pioneer batch of the
ROYAL GEM ]

besides that... all of us were given a hand-made black wooden block with our name on it... together with a short personalised msg behind written in silver... i wonder who wrote them... cos there r oni 3 j1s who participated in syf w us... i'm so touched that they actually noe mi well enough to write sth for mi... (i'm quite an introvert u c...) they r veri observant... that's all that i can say...
