Welcome to NJC Angklung Ensemble's blog! :)

We are a group of carefree students who have gathered together,
regardless of bawahs, normals, atas, kulintang and percussions
to create music like none other with our conductor, Mr Dzul. :D
Teacher i/cs: Mr Tan Chor Yean, Ms Sun

Reminiscence II is over. Can you believe it? All the Wednesdays & Saturdays, the hot & stuffy times in TC36, the glaring & hot OHP which Mr Dzul didn't like which was then upgraded to the visualiser, chionging of homework during break, mass orders of bubble teas and grape juice and whatnots, times we practices up to 8 and people rushing for the side gate, practices till 9 where we'll have to order pizza, all the hard work we have to put in to carry the kulintangs and percussions and Mr Dzul's keyboards, the pub stunts, the rehearsals at Lt5.Wow, time just fly so fast. Anyway, I just wanna say how proud I am of every single one of you, because we've had practice for almost every single day for the past two weeks and its all your hard work and perseverance and teamwork and consistency and togetherness and .... love(: I felt that the ensemble has grown closer as we got nearer to the concert and I hope that this journey, though painful at times, have somehow taught us something or that we managed to gain something out of it. I'm like, damn sleepy and tired right now but I cannot put off writing here because I will just forget how I felt like if I were to type tomorrow morning.

Yesterday, I wanted to say something like this after practice, but knowing how um emotional I can get at times, I couldn't continue as I started to think what it would feel like without angklung practices. Which was why I just said those few lines after Haslinda said I had something to say because I was already starting to tear up haha. Even as I am typing this, my eyes start to linger with tears (HAHA is that even the right phrase?) As much as I feel that practice is tiring but it is also fun and the music we make is unique and the friends you make there: AWESOMENESS. So everyone, back to studying and homework and tutorials and SPAs and lecture tests and common tests haha! This is just probably me rambling but really, from the bottom of my heart, THANK YOU TO EVERYONE:D This is just a general thank you to everyone who have played a part in REMINISCENCE II. The individual thanks shall come later eh haha. To the helpers: PA, emcee, SMs, OAC, SH11. To the members: Atika, Audrey, Jia Hui, Jun Yuan, Hui Ying, Kai Jun, Wei Jie, Indri, Jacob, Nazira, Haslinda, Phi, Jocelyn, Sharah, Valerie, Jing Qiu, Kai Wei and Hong. To the teachers: Mr Tan & Ms Sun. To our one and only conductor: Mr Dzul Rabull Jalil. <3

Reminiscence II is just 5 days away. This is probably the most challenging concert put up by the NJC angklung ensemble. Why did i say this? Well, the reason is pretty obvious. We hv lesser players this time around...and lesser player means everyone hv to double up like crazy..haha. But nothing is impossible, we will make it happen.
I can see that everyone is working very very hard for this concert. I am very proud with all the effort and the perseverance put up by each and everyone of you. Its been long and tiring practise every single day, persevere, push a little further for this last stretch and i promise it will be an unforgettable nite.
Like i say nothing is impossible..believe you can do it....it will be a blasting concert, i can sense it.

To all the seniors, thk u for ur undying support towards the ensemble..if u are coming for the concert (eh, wat am i talking abt, of course all of u are coming), hope to see and hear u that nite. Your juniors hv been working very hard for this, ur encouragement and presence is a great boost for them. And this would probably be the last time the sound of angklung be heard in NJC?? but...watever it is, the spirit lives forever in our heart.
So seeya! :)
