I think I just found peace with myself I feel almost zen-like.
Cac+us ended and I didn't stay till the very end cuz my nose was bad, I practically couldn't live without a tissue paper and my head was throbbing, from start till end (after intermission when I left). Cac+us wasn't easy, at all. From the start, during preparation till the end I met with a helluva shit although ironically I wasn't even supposed to be part of the team. But I guess I learnt a lot in the process.. the things I picked up were totally different from that I learnt in my 7 years of choir life. In choir you learn to face the music (pun intended), you learn to work with the team, you've to or it'll show (to the judges). It's not like project work where you can act like you guys put in effort altogether when actually someone just tanked the whole thing behind the scene. I learnt.. music, duh. It was more of being involved and enjoying the fruit of your labor by performing and getting the tangible result we deserved- gwh/ gold medal etc.
But here in CAC, I learnt to manage a club, market our club and grab sponsors from the air. There're lot of what you would call sai kang involved which are absent when you're in a choir but i guess it exposed me to the business world? The results aren't fantastic as in you don't get appreciation in terms of applauses, you don't get to wow people on stage during that particular important moment. Here, people may not even know you exist. Who would think of where certain costumes came from while watching a performance? Not even the sub clubs that benefitted were (explicitly) appreciative. You don't have a specific period of time to stun the crowd or to prove your worth. You do it.. along the way. The happiness and pride I felt was a far cry from the maximum I've ever experienced, prolly cuz like I said, I'm only in the marketing team but welllll, I'm glad it turned out fine I'm glad I did make a difference, albeit tiny, in the whole production :)
woooo I just sent an email to thank our sponsors.. but I think there's this one very special guy whom I should thank the most and that's my minks!! :)
Thank you minks for your support (haha) throughoutttt. Thank you for your listening ear and um, thanks for coming to RP and bringing me to the damn clinic that took so long (and have such a slow and retarded doc). I am really grateful to you for staying at TRCC in hope of a chance for you to send me home by cab before going for recall. Although it couldn't materalise, I am eternally grateful and thankful for your love and such :)
I hope recall isn't too sian for you! I love you hehe.
