  • Elite Choir Criteria (thanks Anne!)

    Choir: A body of singers who perform together

    Elite: The choice or best of anything considered collectively, as of a group or class of persons, persons of the highest class and someone representing the most choice or select.

    Best elite choral singers possess (among others) the following abilities:

    • to sing precisely in tune and with a vocal timbre which complements the other singers;

    • to sing at precisely controlled levels of volume, matching the dynamics and expression
    marked in the score or prescribed by the conductor, and not sing so loudly as to be markedly detectable as an individual voice within the section;

    • to read and pronounce the lyrics accurately and in the pronunciation style specified by the leader, whatever the language may be;

    • to remain completely alert for long periods, monitoring closely what is going on in a rehearsal or performance;

    • to monitor one's own singing and detect errors.

    • perfect pitch

    • to accept direction from others for the good of the group as a whole, even when the singer disagrees esthetically with the instructions;

    Not only must elite choir members be able to sing but they must be capable of giving a complete show and fully enthralling their audience with breath-taking entertainment.
    In short they need to have the looks of Jessica Alba or Brad Pitt, the theatrical ability of Jim Carrey, dance moves of Justin Timberlake and the voice of an angel.

  • Big Ups 2 Jos 4 gettin hold of the advisors remake of Bohemian Rhapsody!

    Is this the real life
    Is this just fantasy
    Caught in a paradise
    Great escape from your family
    Open your eyes
    Wishing you had more time to sleep
    We're just geek campers
    Leaving our legacy
    Because we're really smart
    Ace the test
    Think rubix cubes
    Are the best
    The properties of carbon really really matter to me
    To me

    Mumma da da da da
    All the friends that I have made
    Seems that they will never fade
    Dada, summer had just begun
    I thought I'd gone and thrown it all away
    But, mumma I was wrong
    Don't mean to make you cry
    If I don't text back again this time tomorrow,
    Carry on, carry on
    I've more important matters
    Do do do do
    Do do do do

    Too soon, home time has come
    Pack your bags and say goodbye
    We've had such an awesome time
    Goodbye geeky buddies
    We've got to go
    Gotta leave it all behind and face the truth
    Thanks mate oooooooooo
    I think I'm gonna cry
    When I'm back home again this time tomorrow
    You'll be gone, you'll be gone
    As if nothing ever happened

    I see a little silhouetto of a man
    Running up, falling down
    As he does the hill slash wall
    Thunder bolts and lightning
    Very very frightening me
    Orange yellow, green and purple, blue and red, Dan the rainbow
    Trish and Peter are the best
    That was a puuuuun -

    I'm just a poor boy, got too many fines
    He's just a poor boy, got far too many fines
    Spare hinm his life from this monstrostiy
    Do do do do do do do -

    50 cents will pay your debt
    Humiliation's better yet
    Where's your name tag
    Oh no I do not know
    Let me go
    Where's your tag
    Oh no I do not know
    Let me go
    Where's your tag
    Oh no I do not know
    Let me go
    No I do not know
    Let me go
    No I do not know
    Let me go
    No no no no no no no no

    Crazy costumes, crazy costumes, crazy costumes
    Volleyball
    The advisors dominated in the final round,
    We won we won
    Shame shame shame shame

    So you think you can stone us, throw pies at our face
    So you think you can own us in hill relay races
    Oh babies can't do this ot us babies
    We'll take you down, we wear the crown around here

    You guys really matter, anyone can see
    You guys really matter, you guys really matter, to us!

  • Canterbury Students and Advisors Reunion

    Hayley W by Hayley W
    I am trying to organise a Canterbury Students Reunion for all people who went to Geek Camp 08 and are now studying in Canterbury whether at UC, Lincoln uni or other. It will be most likely held in the UCSA building but I need people to show interest and pass on details to other people who dont read Canta. If interested I just need to know if there is enough people interested so reply to this thread or to my email in Canta and I can try to organise a time and date!

    Thanks MAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT
     E!
