I wonder whether (Ms, so there,) Quah knows what blogs are and if she does, whether it's safe to write about RP stuff here. But, I really can't stand it anymore, it's like, almost every other day, she needs to have a meeting with me to discuss some sporadic trivial matter. So what's it now, a day without a meeting with the chairman will cause her to age more than usual? :/ I suppose not ALL of the meetings are without reason, but we, or at least, I could do with less of the nonsense. What I can't take the most is how she loves to, consciously or not, drag the meetings so absurdly long. It's like, I wouldn't mind if you said 5 minutes, and finished in 5 minutes right? But she has to elaborate on every single itty bitty nitty gritty detail to the finest touch, complete with substantiations, proofs and quotes :/ As a result, 5 minutes became 5 years. Mush can attest to that. Anyway, on a less annoyed note, next year is SYF, so I suppose that she isn't being unduly worried about the selection of a script. And she mentioned that she sensed "the burden of responsibility weighing heavy on me" or something. Nothing of the sort. I'm actually not tied down, at all. Except when she needs a meeting. Which, sadly, is almost every other day. But on the point of worry, I feel the pressure. Of? D-uh, SYF? Gold? With Honours? We've gotten Gold with Honours for SYF for three seasons running now, 2003, 2005 and 2007, last year. Now imagine if we were to get Silver this year, or something. Not a pretty sight on the display board. Whew. So help me.
How about Rafflesian Spotlight, then? Well. I suppose, that it was quite fun(ny, as well), and since it was my first time going for RS, it was a really good experience. Like, first time, ever! *Stares into space in a daze, and drools* Snap out of it. I mean, like, the atmosphere was really like, Dramafeste? But much, much more hyper. So, I shan't really go into every single performance with the details. Or I'll just be as longwinded as ~, now, won't I? Hmm, let's see. I thought that Greg was really good, and should have won first place, except that Aaron Goh was better. Sorry Greg! But Greg is pretty sporting, I guess. I think he was on pitch for the whole song, but the judges said his voice was very nasal. But isn't the song a rather nasal one too? I don't know. But in any case, Well done Greg! (We have medium rare Greg as well) David was pretty funny. When the curtains opened, he was standing there alone, in a black (hooded, I think?) shirt and slacks and seemed so emo. He looked very much like one of those times in class where he had just fought (and lost) World War III with the whole class. But I guess, even though I must admit that the husky quality in David's voice seemed pret-ty artificial and he was too soft and his weird half-punch in the middle of the song was.. Weird. I guess, I'll say, kudos to him for being able to withstand all the booing that our fairly unsporting audience gave him. Honest, David, Shien Leeni and I were there on your left of the stage, cheering you on all the way! [: As for Aaron Goh, well, all I can say is that, he was really good, and that I had glimpsed this, just slightly, during Buckley Dramafeste '08 Auditions Earlier this year. His whole singing and stuff. Good job Aaron [:
Then Open Category. There were quite a few performances worth mentioning, so I shan't elaborate. But in general, I think that the Open Category and Guest Performances were better than the Solo Category, and my criteria in this case is the quantity of laughter induced. Ahh. Anyway I shall be off now. Holidays are here. Wow, one year sure passed fast. Ihate my class, somewhat, the whole segregated feel of it :/ Again. I must stop harbouring these feelings of annoyance, and hate, and bitterness? I guess, and stuff. It's terribly unhealthy. So! I'm almost Sec4, now. I feel old.. One more year of RI. Then I can graduate into.. RI. Amazing, the kind of stuff they think of these days. Anyway, I'm not all too sure about the merger and stuff? Cause, like, I can't see the immediate benefits of it, and that's typical me, short-sighted, to a degree of 600. But One thing I'm sure of is that I need to end this post :/ Goodnight.
