Empress : Kaiserin

Ein tolle Tag!!

Now on the promised post. About Herr Lim. *snickers* He cracked a joke/mock us in German = o_O. Did he realised where he was? He was mocking the sopranos for singing the "resurrection" section too tenderly, and said this "Dein in mein ganze Herz!" (meaning lit. "Your in my entire heart). That wasn't any spelling mistake; that was actually a grammatical error in the German sentence. Should have been "Du (bist) in meinem ganzen Herz!" which would correctly mean "You (are) in my entire heart", literally translated. But well, the joke was lame, and I bet he impromptu'ed it without thinking - if not, why the errors? I'm just proud I'm one of the few Singaporeans who understood his sentence. Herr Lim said a lot of things without thinking last night! There was this once instance he compared the basses' singing to Italian pasta. There was this once instance we sopranos sang beyond his expectation and he was jolly he stood up and shouted "Well done!! Happy New Year!!" o__________________O. I'm so dead'ed. Killed by the lameness and carelessness of it all. And sometimes he laughed at his own jokes while nobody got what the funny part was, and then we laughed because we lived in disbelief for what he just did. It's a kind of cute. It's also a kind of bizaare. My guess is his New Year holiday break did him more harm than good. Lol!

Okay, let's not ruin his reputation too much! Enough to share last night's amusement and crackiness with all of you. For he's still my much respected conductor after all! ^^
