Interesting Names of Peeps from AJC(AAC)O

Featuring the 'Ling' Siblings, the 'Fishball City', the 'Gentle' and the 'Vegetable Gal'...

This week's special features will be a showcase of a few AJC(AAC)O peeps... I hope this blog can serve to introduce more juniors to seniors and vice-versa. We had a blog entry on marriage and couples in AJC(AAC)O. This time, the theme for this blog entry will be on special names (or rather nick names) of some interesting people.


Profile Number One: Qi-Wei Ling (Viagra and Sis)

Everyone knows the 'Ling' Siblings... The ultimate siblings of AJCO... Wanna know why they are featured here? Pictures tell a thousand words... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 expressions... Yeah!!!






So who they are?

Name:

Wei Ling (23rd Batch AJCO) and Qi Ling (21st Batch AJCO)

Nickname:

Qi (Ling) Mei and Wei (Ling) Ge aka Wei Ge *No Offence =p*


Descriptions:

Both of them are really really very nice people (though crappy - Wei Ge is more crappy than Qi Mei). The most loving siblings I have ever seen. And they sings VERY well wor. Qi Mei just stepped down from her Xianyue SL post in AJCO while Qi Ling has just taken over Missy Huiling's post as a treasurer in AJCAACO. Qi Ling is well-known as an auntie 杀手. His charming smile will melt the hearts of friends' mamas. A definite threat to the friends' papas. Wei Ling has the same charismatic smile (She is damn photogenic and of cos pretty even outside photos). Luckily, she is not an uncle
杀手 (or else will attract the wrong men).

The Secret of the 'Ling' Ancestry:

Wei Ge has inherited a skill from the Ling Ancestors - Using the snapping of fingers to perform 龙腾虎跃 percussion solo. I think he is quite disappointed as Qi Mei doesn't seem to have the same talent. It's OK. JIAYOU QI MEI... Practice makes perfect.


Profile Number Two: Fish Ball City


No. I am not trying to feature S.H.E. in the AJCAACO blog (though S.H.E. has so many songs that uses CO music). Rather, I am trying to introduce the Number One Fan of S.H.E. in AJCO. Before I start, let's have a "DO-YOU-KNOW?" section first. Do you know that Wanting, Susanna and Wei Ling from AJCO 23rd batch took part in the AJ Idol contest (They did not win though =p)? (See Below Right)... Ok... Enough of Crap... Here is the story of the World's Most Famous Fishball!!!


So who she is?

Name:

Chen Yuan Yu, Susanna (Tan Yuan Yu) (23rd Batch AJCO Yangqin Player)

Nickname:

Yu Yuan Chen (Fish Ball City) or Yu Yuan Tan(g) (Fish Ball Soup)


Descriptions:

Fishball just stepped down from her treasurer position so that she can focus on meeting S.H.E.... I mean studying... As you can see, she is one of the AJCO S.H.E. who took part in AJ Idol. 'Equipped' with the voice of Selina, Fishball rocked the Kbox room with S.H.E. songs (with the pretty Wanting and crappy Wei Ling). Alumni Aunties and Uncles... If you wanna feel young again, join Fishball and friends for KTV... Guarantee plus chop you will feel like 18 years old again.

The Secret of the 'Fishball' Ancestry:

Fishball and her two (real) sisters have changed the impression of idol chase into a very innocent fairy tale. Do read her blog to feel about her encounters with S.H.E. brings life into her. I think it is S.H.E. that makes our dear Fishball to be the
World's Most Famous Fishball... Yummy!!! (I wonder can Huang Sheng has the same effect? Hmmmm)


Profile Number Three: Gentle

I haven got a chance to know more about this person with a special name. (Dun even have a proper picture of her). Not a special nick but a special name. When I first heard people called her, I thought that was supposed to be her nickname. Yeap.... Gentle is her name. 姓 温 名 柔 = 温柔...... Can you believe it? That is such a NICE NAME... (In the past... we have another AJCO peep with a beautiful name - Shi Zhongmei... 始终美 = Forever Beautiful)


Guess who is Wen rou? Just see who is the smallest of them all. This is a picture of the Liuqin players for SYF 2007. The petite gal in the middle is Wen Rou. Miss Gentle. If you think Xiuhua is small size... Check out Wen Rou... =p

(Nick)Name:

Wen Rou

Description:

Liuqin Player (24th Batch) Though to a lack of interaction with her, I am unable to provide additional information.




Profile Number Four: The Vegetable Gal

This gal is the foundation of 23rd batch AJCO. Though she is just a 'tree-branch' but she supports AJCO like a tree trunk. Without her leadership qualities in leading the whole orchestra, AJCO would not have gotten gold in 2007 for SYF. Can you guess who she is?



Here she is...

Name:

Cai Shuzi (23rd Batch AJCO President)

Nick Name:

Obvious rite? Literally, Miss Cai can be known as 'Vegetable Tree Branch' or '菜树枝'

Description:

As mentioned earlier, 'tree branch' is more like a tree trunk which supports AJCO. Due to some unforeseen circumstances, 'tree branch' was promoted to the president of AJCO (replacing Nigel). Though the 23rd batch AJCO experienced a bit of reshuffling and restructuring at the end of 2006, 'tree branch' managed to pull everyone together and braved through difficult times. Yeap... Cai Shuzi has proven her point. Eat more vegetables and you will grow stronger mentally and physically. Nothing can stop her for Miss Cai is 100% natural green with the needed vitamins for survival.

Qiao Feng a 指挥? Huang Sheng in 天龙八部?

Have anyone watched Jin Yong's "The Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" (天龙八部) on TV before? Those from AJCO or TJCO might have noticed that our dearest CO conductor HUANG SHENG is playing the role of Qiao Feng. To outsiders who don't know about CO (hence, the existence of Huang Sheng), their first impression of Huang Sheng might be... "Hmmm... I didn't know Qiao Feng can orchestrate a CO"...

YESSSH... Both of them (See the two pictures shown above) are O.M.G(odly) identical!!! Equally suave... Equally nice long hair... Equally having the charisma of MAN... If you are still unconvinced, let me show you all a few more photos for comparison... Prepare for the battle of Huang Sheng VS Qiao Feng...


Huang Sheng with his "18 Dragon Subduing Palms" aka "xiang long shi ba zhang"... And the victim... Our beautifullest Lena... Look at her eyes... She is definitely seriously 'injured' by the power of Huang Sheng's 内功.

(Top) OMG... 'Huang Sheng' with Christy Chung? This picture is really really very 'Huang Sheng' right?

(Left) From this angle, the equation works right? Huang Sheng = Qiao Feng Equation.


(Above): What about this picture? Maybe Huang Sheng can try on
this new outfit for conducting AJCO next time. =p

(Top): The Legendary Xian Long Shi Ba Zhang and... Below is Huang Sheng's self-created version




Well well... Our dearest conductor Huang Sheng has his own version of 'Xiang Long Shi Ba Zhang'. His charismatic moves that flow with the music have the power to manipulate the orchestras under his baton. Yeah... So here is our authentic Huang Sheng's martial arts movements... Hee... Oh Man... He is the best... (Better than Qiao Feng)..


Blog Entry Dedicated to All Fans of Huang Sheng!!!

Hmmm... Whatever appears on the search results concerning AJCO as shown above are merely our interpretation of what AJCO as an Acronym means i.e Anderson Junior Chinese Orchestra (DIAO!!! Just realise AJCCO will sound more logical). Thus, on the internet, AJCO stands for many other things... Like...

AJCO's Purpose

(Top) AJCO also stands for American Journal of Clinical Oncology.

Seems like our acronym clashes with cemeteries and clinical stuff... O_O... So 不吉利!!! Thats why I have waited till AJCO to clinch their gold title before putting up this blog entry. Haha!!!


AJCO, We Are Not Alone...

GO GOAL GOLD!!! AJCO SYF COMPETITION

May 10th. The Judgment Day! After months of intensive CO practices in the AJCO room, AJCO's hard work has finally paid off. The 23rd batch AJCO (with the help of many JC1s - future 24th batch) has emerged victory. This is a special day for many of our AJCO alumni... And a overly exciting day for a weak-stomach person like me... Because of the long and treacherous waiting time from the morning till AJCO's turn, I got too excited that I had diarrhoea 4 times in SCH.

Arriving at Singapore Conference Hall at 8.20am in the morning with a few other alumni (i.e. Xiao Ting, Mervin and Peiling), the atmosphere was tense. AJCO was the first team in the afternoon session. The few of us was there since morning to see how much chance AJCO can get gold by comparing with other JC COs. I believe Mervin and Xiao Ting agree that AJCO will definitely get a gold at the end of the AM session SYF competition. I was even thinking whether AJCO can get the gold with honours.

Mervin, Fukang, Xiao Ting and I went into the tuning room with AJCO for preparation. Huang Sheng went through the set piece with them. GOSH... It was so nicely expressed by our dear juniors. In our minds, AJCO is DEFINITELY (plus chop plus guarantee) getting a GOLD.

Being the first to perform in the afternoon session, AJCO was seated on stage for around 5 mins to wait for the judges to make their grand entrance. The concert hall was silent as everyone was staring at AJCO. Well... They are professional. They sat there on stage without fidgeting (or maybe some of the were trembling but we can't see). Well well... and the first song went well... The second as well... One word to describe AJCO's musical impression - Serene (not you Serene) but as if the two musical pieces give some of us a very comfortable feeling. A sense of serenity. In our hearts, we were thinking (hearts dun think... nvm) that AJCO has a 50-50% chance of getting a gold with honours because unlike many other JCs' COs, AJCO was in excellent form on stage without making any major mistakes. For anyone who has seen the progress of AJCO, it is easy to feel SO SO SO proud of them. When a few weeks ago, AJCO was reprimanded by HS and AJCO was merely at the silver standard.

The ultimate moment came when the MC started to announce the results... I was sitting with the juniors.. Praying to whoever up there in the sky... Praying to Buddha, Kwanying, Allah, Jesus whoever or whatever... When TJCO got Gold with Honours... AJCO people cheered for them. We cheered for them though we know that two gold with honours have been given and chances of AJCO getting another one was slimmer... Number 10 - NJCO GOLD... Number 11 - AJCO GOLD................... (and we wait for the word - 'with honours' to be mentioned). Nope... Nothing... and the MC carry on with Number 12 RJC - GOLD etc etc...

Everyone around me went silent... a few of them clapped... Most went silent. Tears started forming in a few juniors' eyes as some of us were hoping to get the gold with honours especially when ACJC, VJC, NYJC, RJC, NJC got their gold awards as well. The feeling was really very sad and disappointed. For the few of us who has listened to all the JC's performances, we know that other than HC and TJ, AJC was the best. But... well... Maybe we are not up to the Gold With Honours standard.

TJCO started filling the concert hall with school cheers... NYJC as well... AJCO people were quietly leaving the concert hall. In SCH's concourse, many of the juniors started breaking into tears... Haiz... But I guess we have to be more positive, we 'score' a hat-trick. Three times consecutively GOLD... YEAH...

AJCO has matured. When Miss Chua (Bihe) was in AJCO, they were not really excited to know the results. They were more surprised than happy to have gotten a GOLD. Under Shumin (15th batch), we cried for getting a silver. We were disappointed. And it goes on and on until Jian en's batch. They got a GOLD and went into the finals. They screamed and cried with tears of joy. Under Matthew's leadership, AJCO clinched another GOLD with a few of them disappointed for not getting a GOLD with honours (though most of them are happy). Yesterday 10th of May, AJCO cried... Because they know that they can do better. A Gold with Honours was within reach. AJCO is no more the AJCO in the past. AJCO has progressed into another higher level. A gold with honours is not something only HC and TJCO can achieve. With the AJCO spirit, a gold with honours is a possible future achievement.

More importantly, members of AJCO has matured as well. When AJCO knew their results, one student said with tears falling down her cheek, "We are still happy (though sad) because at least one of Huang Sheng's COs (TJCO) got a Gold with Honours... We are happy for TJCO... We are happy for Huang Sheng". I am extremely impressed and touched by the words. This is how members of AJCO has matured over the span of time striving to be better. They are not sore losers. This is the way to move on... to strive for a better future for AJCO. We can be disappointed. But we will never give up. Its time to accept that AJCO still can improve and move on!!! =)

Last but not least, I guess AJCO and AJCAACO should not forget the unsung heroes. A big thank you to the two poor girls looking after the belongings of AJCO when AJCO were up on stage (Can someone from AJCO thank them since I don't even know their names? HAHA... Thanks). Thank you Miss Chua, Mrs Cheong, and Mr Goh for their efforts in grooming AJCO. Thank you Chen Laoshi for building a strong foundation for AJCO. Of course, with out Huang Sheng, AJCO would not have been so successful (as he was AJCO's conductor since 8th batch AJCO and now is already 23rd batch?) =D


TO AJCO:

AS ALUMNI OF AJCO, WE ARE ALL VERY PROUD OF YOU.
WE LOVE YOU AJCO!!! TOGETHER, OUR MUSICAL VOYAGE SHALL CONTINUE TO DEVELOP, PROGRESS AND MATURE. THANK YOU FOR GETTING THE GOLD AWARD FOR IT MAKES 10th MAY A SPECIAL DAY FOR ALL ALUMNI OF AJCO. CONGRATULATIONS!!!


With Deepest Thanks,

Teo Zhiliang

President of AJCAACO
