Most Dramatic Cultural Nite Reharsal Ever

Well, today has been a long day with every single moment filled with a different mood. First I was proud, then moved on to regret, happiness,panic,seriousness,calm and finally light. Many facets of the mind can come alive at any moment whenever the situation calls for it.

Cutting it ahort, I'll go straight to the details. Morning, 7.20am sent brother off at the Cruise Centre. Met Ms Kang and the rest of the scouts preparing to check-in to the ferry.

Morning,8.23 am. Arrival in Yuan Ching Secondary School. Reharsals begin in the hall, and in the classroom. There were light and happy moments here and there, as most of us tried many ways to see how we could joke around with some redundant actions and lines. We got to seriousness a little later, and things started to fit nicely into the act. The first reharsal was the worst, as there were problems with the sounds and a little on the positioning.

Afternoon, 1.10pm. Lunch arrived. It was pizza, as Ms Chee promised. i was sneaky during that period of time, and managed to get my hands on 5 slices of the pizzas from the 4 packages of flavours that were ordered. however, I did not manage to savour the beverage, and ended up buying a packet drink from the canteen instead.

1.30pm. This was when and where all the action took place,the hall. Today was also the day when we got the chance to watch all the performing arts groups perform most, if not,every item. Things were very relaxed and this time,there was hardly any glitches at all. I liked most of the performances, which is the sole reason why others should share the entertainment with the school!

3.23pm. Casualty report, 1 fainted band member. There were some touch-and-go moments, but Darren,Ms Loh,two friends and I quickly brought him back to norm(?if that is what you would call it). It came as a shock at first, only when I heard Mrs Lim reporting that someone fainted and Darren rushing to the scene. i panicked, to be honest, since I sort of forgot what to do within seconds, of which I quickly recovered and prioritised things quickly. I sprinted to the staff room( for the first time since my left elbow recovered) for the first aid kit, then back to the canteen to get a botttle of water from a stall holder, who understood my intention of 'resources first, payment later" sort of thing. I seemed to feel that my body was really light during that period, of which I really paid the money back 20 minutes later. When he was well again, I acted with a short interview by saying "don't take water". It shocked many, especially Darren. I corrected it later, with "Must take as much water as needed". Finally, what made me laugh was the box of make-up on the stage which looked like a first aid kit at first glance.I took it back to the staff room and back to the stage, of course, only to wonder why there were combs, hair gel and sorts inside a first aid kit...

Last thing of today. Search for a good lip gloss. One would definitely find it strange with 5 decent boys looking at cosmetic products. The main reason: to look good on stage.It was not too long later that I learnt from my cousin that she sold the 2 complimentary tickets at S$15each!
