Neh.... it is literally not a "bang" but just diving into what I know best, prepping and ushering the New Year in God's presence first

What a way to end the year, not at home quarantine, not at some party, or isolation sobbing on myself; but to just step into the end of the year with a heart not yielding to 2023's defeat, and trusting 2024 is going to be trail blazing, burning off all the impurities and baggages of guilt; and what better way than be just be in God's presence?

Other than that, it is time to suck up and throw away all the tears of panic, because there's a lot to do in 2024

God has instructed me something very crucial and the dark side tried to throw me off course with chaos, but not today, Satan, in Jesus Name!

With the end is coming and there's a line of lots of practice for myself and the choir, I have started to double down on my piano practices, and even without perfection, I have learned so much creating harmonies based on Music Director's chords indication with newly learned chord progressions. Turns out that every song has its way to present and it doesn't mean the "standard chords" and harmonies will work, and that's where the new course I have been attending is helping me to figure this out.

Especially the coming 31st December, where this is a "challenge" for the ladies because it is in the KEY OF F and KEY OF G

Which means, in layman's term, it is SUPER HIGH or SUPER LOW for the ladies.

This is where the Alto and Soprano sleeves need to roll up to tackle whatever songs that the vocalists cannot reach.
So far I only started the key of G practice list (click it here to hear them)

And I have recorded others but somehow there's some problem uploading the audios for Canva to work on. Maybe I'll try to do it from browser later today and figure out more harmonies for the team for key of F songs..... yikes!

Another thing is like I am so grateful to God that despite I only the 3rd day post-covid recovery, I was able to hold the notes without coughing too much. If that's not the Holy Spirit's miraculous work with all the angels fending off any more virus manifestation, I don't know what is.

You can watch our very raw practice footage for your entertainment.

Please don't judge haha... we are all not professional artists; just people who love Jesus and adore Him with our voices 😇, especially from this broken vessel. 🙌🏼

Moving Forward

This morning I have decided to check out BUY ME A COFFEE WEBSITE as I have noticed a lot of YouTube content creators mentioned about that.

Being a coffee lover (no more an addict, hallelujah!), this is definitely a wonderful idea, and if ever you visit this post again sometime in the future and the upvote rewards have expired, feel free to share a gesture of encouragement with as low as $1 USD cup of coffee. This is going to go to my mom's medical bills and setting aside for the (lost) cornea transplant fund.

I actually have not really tested it just yet, but anyone who would like to test with me, please feel free to do so. Your kind gesture is much appreciated!

Well, that's all for now. It's Friday already here in the Far East, and wishing everyone a wonderful and blessed New Year 2024, and enjoy your final weekend of the year! 👋🏼

Until Then

Stay healthy, stay curious and learn new things, and stay happy!
