Location
Hello, I've called Mdm Lian today. She is the in-charge of zhss alumni. Regarding the location of our practice on sat 7pm, she will try to ask the principal, Miss Tan. Hopefully we'll be able to have access to the music room at this time slot. If not, below are the possible alternatives:
-Nanyang JC. The nearest school that has a guzheng club. Perhaps we can share our resources and i don't mind giving them the notes i prepare or any guzheng related materials. Hopefully it'll be a win-win senario
-a CC. Initially i proposed Bradell Heights CC as it's the nearest CC to ZHSS. However they may not have guzheng and we may have trouble carrying guzheng from school to there. Maybe we can consider other CC which has a guzheng club. One such CC is AMK CC. Perhaps i can try asking them if they can rent the room and guzheng to us.
-Nanyang Academy of Arts. I just thought of it actually, cos there is practice rooms and instruments. but i don't know if there is enough guzheng.
If you have any suggestion for the location, feel free to bring it up!
By the way, there is this new year gathering for zhonghua alumni on 25 Feb. It's a saturday 12 noon. Venue is at zhss hall. It'll be a good chance for the other alumni members to get to know about us. Please please do come if you are available that day. thanks!

Email
I've just sent an email to people..
Might as well post it here..
Also, zhguzhengss.blogspot.com will be our permanent account. Tagboard available!! Haha do ultilise the functions in the blog. If u wanna share any information or suggestion for songs or objections to the plan, you can leave a comment or just post a new entry! Refrain from using the tagboard for these purposes cos the tagboard entries will eventually be deleted when the memory is used up.
Btw I’ve set sat 7pm to 9pm as our practising hour, any objections? I’ll try to ask zhss if the music room is available for us.. If not, I’m thinking of using nanyang jc or braedell heights CC (don’t know how to spell).. It’s very difficult to find a common time slot for everyone of us already cos of ppl’s different working days/hours.. so hope u all can make do with these other places IF (hope not) zhss isn’t available.
Thank you for taking your time to read this. Please do not reply to this email. Reply to

Most of the contents in the email are here already, except for the password and some rambling.. Yup this is in response to many people asking me where are we going to have lessons. You may ask me personally for the password/username. I haven't send the email to everybody cos i don't have the contacts at hand. Hopefully people will forward to those who haven't got the email.
