The Microphone Turbulence

It's 10.51, and I have the worse feeling that I'm going to totally flunk tomorrow's performance. I wonder why the microphone had to have so much turbulence and deliberately alter my voice to this low-grandmother-ish pitch. I sound horrible on the microphone. Horrible.

I have a feeling not only I'm not going to win, but I'll do badly; the sec 2s (Devaraj is so cocky.. and he literally scrutinised me.. mean mean mean..)are marvelous...well, most of them. Other juniors like Devaraj, Lester and Hsien Long were really really err... loud, not literally. As in they just had lots to say..Great songs that suited them (apparently I can't fit into any known male song..next time I'm just going to sing mandarin)... and well, I just sound totally hoarse and superbly low in 'All You Wanted'. I lost all my concentration of what message I want to bring across... in short, I just felt like a china-ish stupid dope.

I wanted to change the song, test the other speaker (which has NO turbulence TKVM..) and all that but Jason just didn't have the time. I can't blame him for that.

Erwin couldn't reach Maroon 5's 'She Will Be Loved', he literally blew up infront of Darrell.. it's perfectly fine.. I mean when your friend chides you for your inability to reach a note, of course you'll get agitated.. it's ok.. so say they drop the song altogether. Hanif sounded much better with this new song, but problem is we hear Craig David's voice almost all the time.

Anyway I'm going to embaress myself tomorrow. Definitely.
