Tour de Europe! (10/6)

The day started out wet, but I was able to take a shot at the amazing cloudburst on the horizon. In some weird way, the sight kinda described our situation then: gloomy, but with hope waiting to burst out. Ah I hope so...

We had practices and practices throughout the day, and we didn't get to see our conductor most of the time coz he was giving an online seminar on the choral scene in Singapore. We sounded better with each practice, but the pressure was mounting too. At some point in time, we simply used the scheduled practice time to rest. Some of us were starting to sound hoarse. Oh, the pressure, the pressure...

Not much photos on this day, so I just took a few shots of the scenery outside my window. Quite nice actually, but I'm afraid I can only enjoy it after the competition tomorrow...

We got a chance.

I really hope we'd win.

Then I slept.

No nightmares, please.

Gosh, even rainy days looked better in Europe! Posted by Picasa
