Training for FINALE (school singing competition)

So we were told to gather at the school bus stop and they will bring us to the trainer's house to train our vocals and techniques of how to sing. Frankly speaking, it was educational. As in, it helped me a lot. So, it was counted as a success i guess? Even if i didn't win this time, i gain enough experience already. Appreciate it much :)

So we went to Kido's house, he's a trainer as well. Singer i think. And it was a big house. Some where around Klang Parade...


So basically the first thing the trainer told us when we reach the house was, 

"who's afraid of dogs? no...Puppy.."

And eventually there's someone who doesn't like it. But i love it very much.

Here. 

An 8-years old poodle with my Seniors smelly socks. This poodle is PRECIOUS, maybe because it's old, it's less active... And we all love it. It doesn't run around chasing people and biting other people like mad dogs. Instead, it just lay under your foot, and let you pad it. Very cute and obedient dog. Frankly speaking, this white poodle looks very much alike a lamb or goat. I'm serious! Not joking. It's like a lamb, especially the fur.

Unlike the 3-4 months baby poodle.


I know right, looks cute on pictures and all.. but in real life, it's super mischievous as it jumps around biting people and scared off pretty much beautiful ladies from our team. It's really hard to capture the dog's movement, as it moves every time, unlike the white lamb. So i had to set my ISO high. Dem. :(


And then it's the training session. Guys first, as they have different range of tone compare to girls. And so they are lead into the soundproof room, (i call it soundproof because we can't even hear a single person singing from outside) While we were told to wait outside. 

Awesome prizes won by the trainer. Really awesome. 1st, 2nd, 3rd. Everything also got.

Pictures were taken by Wendy. As she is the one who has the freedom to go in and out from the room and to the living room.


Then i realize how loud it is when we were in the soundproof room doing the "AH~AH~AH~AH~AH~AH~AAAAA~"
It's amazing how u can't hear a thing when you were at the living room.

Okay, so first they tried out our range. Mine was quite bad, cause i can't pull too high nor too low. So... yeah.
Picture above, we were told to put our hands near the throat and see if you can feel the vibration when singing.


Picture above, we were to feel our diaphragm, i guess, one of the main thing that's important to use in singing. 



AHHHHHH~~~~~~~


Once again, when we're done, we're out to the living room again. And this time it's the youngster's turn.






And then everyone were to enter the room together, one by one we sing a 30sec song, and they will correct us. This is the part where we learn most.




I guess that's it. That's all i could say. Just stay tune for the FINALE, it would be AWESOME! We will put on our costumes, pretty clothes, whatever you call it, and we have the best PA system, as they told us, and even hairstylist and makeup artist to doll us up during the Finale. That's why i said, it's awesome. Stay tune!
