Today, we had fun at t1a68, the 9 of us, me(iffah), clarie, syukriah, stanley, shone, halim , xinsi , aaron and christopher were discussing on the 8 songs that we are going to dedicate to the Japanese. we all went to youtube to get some of the song. shone will be playing the guitar for two of the songs, three of the songs will be english modern songs, another 2 will be japanese song while the last one will be a choreograph song. what do i mean by a choreograph song? if you guys happen to watch glee or grease or high school musical, we are doing that for the oshima trip. however, we have to cancel the dance as it takes alot of time for us to organize and get everybody syncronize & coordinate at the same time.
