You won't believe just how much fun we had on the night before competition. It was nothing like worthless home. Anyway, yeah, we went early with maisy, to buy dinner for the crew. Urgh, make us like embarassing idiots. Banged onto the piano in the dark and took pictures in school. Had short briefing before last night rehearsals started. It was GOLD standard (like jere says). Went off to sleep, couldn't afford to play anymore cos we only had 4 hours left to next morning. But I have to comment that we looked like Tsunami victims lying in the zipped sleeping bags. haha. OK, not funny. Being the only idiots who bathed early morning 4.50 am, the water seemed to have melted from ice-bergs. Preparations sure took hours, and we were kinda behind schedule, still rushed through anyway. One final last last last last rehearsal before we boarded the bus on [Journey to the Best]. YES. :D Surely, there was plenty of encouragement, last minute thoughts, motivation, excitement, uncertainty. "Faith is the only thing you can believe in now.." - James "Forget about everything, all I ask for is 20 mins of your life, like you're never gonna live tomorrow, so FOCUS!" - Jeremiah Which is very true. Waited and waited, 2 secs were like hours. Everyone was nervous, quiet, deep in thoughts about wanting the Gold badly. ANXIETY level was high. Finally, went in, standby, could sense that seriousness in everyone. Ready, "Gan Eng Seng School, with the play entitled, THE NAGA IN THE SWAMP". And it began. I could only say, MARVELLOUS, REAL, ALIVE. I dare say it was our best performance ever. And I'm very proud of it. Shan't elaborate cos further details may lead to misunderstandings, like what we would get and bout` the other school's play. Got on the bus, back to school, back to students. Rejoicing before, during and after debriefing. It was a 110%. True, what matters most is we know we did our very best. Packed up and went to develop pictures, mainly of SYF trainings, competition day and FREDDY. LOL! Okay, confess, it was a "secretly-shot" picture and by popular demand, I developed 10 of the same thing. Printed Instant pictures of over 50, wait for quite long, but it was worth it. Went back to school to complete portfolio, saw our new "idol" run 2.4km. hahaa. Finished a quarter of it and went off to Tiong Bahru again with XX, to develop more pictures, cause she was desperate for Bino's! lol. KIDDING LA. Waited and waited and waited till I could finallyyy go hooome. And to be mentally prepared for Friday's performance (again). LOVEEED SYF, left so much memories, fun, laughter, angst, sadness, confusion, reluctance, contentment, anything but regrets :) SYF TEAM 05` ROCCCCKK ON! IFD Fiesta today. Sec4's didn't get to setup booths of anything. Missed talentime, lessons were crap, nothing to watch, busy preparing and gettin` ready for peformance in the hall for lowersec (eeeyuck!). I tell you, it was our worst performance ever, we were not even focused and can't be bothered, afterall, it was just a group of kiddies who cannot appreciate theatre works. We screwed up lines during the play, laughed, turn our backs on them, giggled, energy was so dead. Definitely left a bad impression cause it was our WORST show ever, not even up to rehearsal standards. LOL! Funny man. But don't really give a damn, the competition's over, watch it at your own loss. It won't be as good, cos... (heh!) Lost my temper towards bloody mah in the lab after school, took my bag and walked off, didn't really give a damn. Crashed town for annual outing, raining heavily man. Bought quite a few things, then met up with XX to complete portfolio at LJS till 9 pm. Exactly one year ago on the same day, we stayed till 11 at the same place, same seat to prepare for debates for IFD fiesta, 16th April 04. =) What an coincidence. Home, watched survivor, still going on with portfolio work. Miss the SYF TEAM and trainings. But I am still not triggered to the point where tears flow easily. Maybe tomorrow when we bid them the final goodbye (cos we'll never ever see or work with them again)~ Shall update. Til` then TEAM EL RULED THE DAY! "Today's your day, you've worked so hard for it, show em` what you can do cos I've seen you do it!" btw [PS: Freddyfans, close up all you can tomorrow :)]
