What is it?

I wanna sleep and wake up later to go Goddammitahhhfuck Math later but I just don't feel like sleeping. Dad's left for the airport soon there'll be no more cars to ferry us around ahhh damn.

Anyways, I was thinking of drama night for the whole day. Didn't realise that it'll make such a huge impact, I mean, even last years wasn't even so impactful. Didn't feel like doing anything at all and yea, so I kinda just lazed around all day. Wanted to make this an emo post but I don't think I'm able to make it emo anyway hahahhaa. Ok, not emo but sentimental. Erm yea where shall I begin?

Oh. Ok, let's start from the beginning. I was reading the script for The Kill and I thought this was a really interesting play and boom, I got pass the auditions and there was this J1 Malay boy Fadhil who's supposed to be my partner (not being racist here I don't mind if he calls me Chinese anyway). Thought all along that it was meant to be some y'know, nonchalant and I'm sitting on the couch just watching soccer kinda thing play with my friend coming back from home wanting to get me out of the house just so he can get his girlfriend in but it wasn't. It's supposed to be some comedy-thriller. Oh yea, and I suddenly recall the scoldings gotten from Tina. Seriously wanted to stuff my middle finger in her face then but nahhh. She meant well anyways. Now it'll take some time getting used to going home from school early. In fact, much earlier than usual. Actually, at that moment when we were packing up to leave the stage and the stairs of the stage of the changing room in the LT, there was this strong sense of reluctance to leave the place and to get back to the real world. In fact, right after the leaving the LT, there was this huge void (shucks I sense myself getting to be cheesy and corny) which unfortunately can't be filled with studying. Seriously, who can fill the emptiness in them with studying? Studying too much only makes one feel even more empty. That's for me at least but if it makes you feel more accomplished then ok good for you.

Let's talk about the performance shall we.. On the first night, I was nervous (especially since I've to start the show) and the response was kinda good. Both Fadhil and I really didn't expect the audience to laugh at the parts which we thought were just normal. We've been reciting the lines all these while and who wouldn't get bored of them somehow, isn't it? Oh, and especially with my parents in the 2nd row, oh boy it sure was pressurizing. But we did well, didn't we? Hahaha. The response for the first day, overall for all the plays was so much better than the second day's which kinda left us feeling so out of sorts. Would it just kill them to respond? But it was a good experience anyways. Been wanting to try out acting and this is kinda a good outlet.

Let me give a shoutout to all who participated in Drama Night '09! I'll miss every single moment with y'all - running all around, taking pictures, laughing at each other, hanging around in the changing room and running across the stage, shuffling between the LT and the toilet trying not to mind the weird stares, doing the strange warm ups, calling Fadhil 'Gorgeous', laughing at and with each other, making new friends and loads more. (Actually I don't even think many will read this but I just feel like doing so) By the way, the LT looks dazzling and hmmm alluring when it's empty and when the stage is lighted up.

Suddenly this whole affair just feels like the times of yore when it just occured slightly more than 24 hours ago (I think? Too lazy to count)

Will upload the photos when those I've emailed have sent them to me.

By the by, let me wish moi a very HAPPY BELATED 18TH BIRTHDAY :D

Fill this gap with more excitement. I feel it sliding away, away, by the second.

belated birthday, drama night
