Competing First Timer

As you know I'm part of choir.

After being a part of my beloved choir for 6 years, we are finally taking part in a competition for the first time.

Well, it isn't a huge competition, it's just one in Klang. (Start kecik kecik dulu laaaar... ). But it is a competition nonetheless.

I could still remember so clearly the day we discussed on whether we should take part in this, and all of a sudden, tomorrow's already the day of competition!

I'm surprisingly not nervous (maybe not yet), but I am very excited about it. I really am excited to see where do we stand exactly out there in the world. Or at least in Klang. HAHAHA! Well, it is one of the main reasons why we joined in the first place. I really want to find out if we are surprisingly really good or do we really suck compared to others! Haha!

That's why if you ask me, I really don't even know what the prize is exactly. Because it doesn't really matter actually. All that matters really, is the experience for all of us to go through the highs, the lows, the hard work, the chemistry, the exposure, the nerve wrecking feeling before stepping into the stage, and hopefully the feeling of accomplishment after the performance.

If you guys are curious, we are gonna be singing 3 songs namely:

1) Love is the Answer (Nice, meaningful song)
2) Oh Brelidy! (Quirky but sometimes can be annoying Chinese song)

3) Dahil Sayo (Philipino Love song, but really difficult!)

I love Dahil Sayo! It's such a beautiful song and knowing the meaning just makes it even more heartbreakingly beautiful, I just have to share it! Hehe.

Sa buhay ko'y labis
Ang hirap at pasakit, ng pusong umiibig
Mandin wala ng langit
At ng lumigaya, hinango mo sa dusa
Tanging ikaw sinta, ang aking pag-asa.

Long have I endured in my life
The pain and sorrows from Love arise
Then you came and redeemed me, my dear,
My only hope in my darkest fears

Dahil sa iyo, nais kong mabuhay
Dahil sa iyo, hanggang mamatay
Dapat mong tantuin, wala ng ibang giliw
Puso ko'y tanungin, ikaw at ikaw rin

Because of you, I yearn to be alive
Because of you, ‘till death (you) must realize
In my heart I know there is only you
And ask my heart, you’ll know that this is true

Dahil sa iyo, ako'y lumigaya
Pagmamahal, ay alayan ka
Kung tunay man ako, ay alipinin mo
Ang lahat ng ito, dahil sa iyo

Because of you, I found happiness
That to you I offer this love that is so blessed
Though indeed I may be a slave for loving you so true
It matters not to me, ‘cause everything’s because of you

Well, will be posting the results of this competition next!

Cheers everyone! Have a awesome weekend!
