i’m back :D
i saw zhang shao han today; she was performing at UCC (i had no idea prior to this)! at first i only saw her back view cos i couldn’t go to the front of the mini stage (tickets were required, and tickets i have not). eventually, i saw her again at UCC backstage with her manager. WOW. she looks so much better in person than on TV.
ok, i wasn’t exactly away, just haven’t been blogging in a million years. anyway, i’ve really been so busy that i’ve got no time for stuff. i’m breathing a little easier now that i’ve got 2 deadlines met. well, the events have been up to my neck now, and tmr’s not going to be any different!
tmr will be a long long day… gotta reach school earlier to finish up the project (some minor stuff to be filled in by the expert; me), attend child language lecture, rush off to nan chiau while trying to squeeze lunch in between, teach at nan chiau and hopefully leave earlier for UCC so that i can catch my breath and some dinner too before the concert, concert starts at 7:30pm, ends at 9 plus. and that’ll be all. finally. but the rushing to and fro is sickening. all that for $90 and a chance to perform. i’m stretching it a little.
tired out! all thanks to a whole bunch of people who couldn’t be bothered to come and help out. my section has zillions of people, but only 2 of us were there to move the instruments. and instructions weren’t given clearly as to which are the instruments we need to bring over the UCC. in the end one clarinet was left out. i don’t care, i’m not going to help them move things back tmr. i’m going to go straight off right after the concert.
ok, shall not be angry, shall not be frustrated, shall not lose my temper. idiots do exist, and i can’t help that. shall be nice. and maybe stop playing for NUSWS after this. haha.
just enjoy the concert. and hope everything turns out fine. as long as we don’t play as badly as today’s rehearsal. like millions of people have said, NUSWS have the potential but they are not going anywhere because the correct mindset isn’t there. stop thinking you are so good when you aren’t, that’s what it simply says. the ensemble doesn’t survive on its star players. everyone plays a part by not overplaying their parts.
pray for a great concert tmr
