人都是泛贱的(续)

Economics is the study of making choices.


Whether you study Economics or not, you still make choices everyday for almost everything, if not all.


Recently, I was tested on making choices.


Picture this scenario...




You are a chorister doing a tenor solo in Victoria Concert Hall, Singapore.

Actually it's ok if you can't picture that, let's carry on.


After your performance, you come to know of critical comments about your solo.


Your solo is being described as 'nasal', maybe lacking fullness.


You decide to consult your choral conductor.


Your choral conductor then tells you that your solo was not nasal but on the contrary, your performance was commendable and you showed improvement.


She reassured the fact that you are a tenor and with that, telling you to keep practising that tone and it might yet be the first step to you being a wonderful chorister.


Say, you have an experience of about 7 years of choral singing and quite a couple of exposures to doing solo in various places from lecture hall, to Singapore Art Museum, to Victoria Concert Hall...with and without microphone.


The person who made that comment might not have as much choral singing experience as you, muchless your choral conductor.


Now, I don't know how much this will help but that person might have yet started on the journey to being a popstar by attending pop singing lessons and the likes.




With much being said, you are presented with a choice.


To sulk and feel lousy just because a popstar wanna-be made you feel less accomplished about your choral performance than you would and/or should by making critical comments...and maybe you then decide to go and take pop lessons yourself......right......

Or

You listen to your choral conductor, taking pride and defending with right.




I don't know about you but without more consideration than needed, I chose option 2.


It is very simple how I have come to arrive at that choice, however, I have neither the need nor wish to explain further.


If you are so good yourself, go and do a solo in VCH before commenting on me.


So I'm proud?...I deserve the pride.

So I'm immature?...Try looking back, at what you yourself wrote, when you have enough choral experience.








Oh yeah...

I am a tenor.....not a bass

人都是泛贱的

人都是泛贱的




不见魔鬼不怕黑


不见棺材不掉泪




我可以很随便

也可以让你很不方便

如果井水不犯河水

我也不会向你泼冷水

你们的意见

我很乐意接受

但是如果因为你的无知

而认为我应该接受你的无理批评

我真的吞不下去




做人要自量

要量力而为




人往高处爬

但是...

高处不胜寒




欺山莫欺水


欺水莫欺火


欺火莫欺我


欺我没有好结果
