um hey, this is a late night post by me after i just reached home from dramafeste. i suppose there are still a number of artemis dramafeste ppl at kap eating and having fun. well im not with them partly cos there'll be no buses by the end of it, and also... well i cant really put it in words. it's not sadness, disappointment or anything like that. it's like... expressionless.
dramafeste 2006. it's over now. i know i seem to be making a big deal out of this, huang cheng may be like so much more zai in terms of the commitment and stuff. but i really think the experience hasnt really made me feel anything until this very last day, this very last night. the true feelings surge up and everything just overwhelms you...
at the sound of this, im sure u all can tell the results by now. yup. we didnt win anything. but as i said earlier on, im not sad or disappointed or anything. im perfectly neutral... very reflective though. suddenly after all the results are out, i feel so much more for the cast, crew and everyone that created this production artemis made. i suddenly have like a lot to say, but just cannot say them out. they are just like at the brink of coming out. but still not coming out. weird feeling eh.
i guess im feeling moody right now. i suddenly see all the effort everyone has put in, all the various rehearsals and runs we had for the past 2 weeks, how we actually pieced together the whole production within this short period and did something that we are proud of. yes i mean it. thats why i do away with all the sadness and disappointment and stuff. i think xuehui feels that too. her crying to me is not those of disappointment, it's more of... seeing how her fruits of labour resulted in its own form of success.
chanel handbags this may seem the wrong phrase, but then again, i really cannot put it in words. it's like those kind of crying where consoling and nice words are not really needed, it's the kind which everything will be fine after a cry all alone. that feeling. even i feel it too.
everyone has worked really hard... the husband, wife, maid, daughter, kid, frank, wonky, wonky's mum and the soldiers. the lights ppl, sound ppl, backstage ppl. not to forget director, stage manager and production manager. and everyone else who helped, like chen ying, mark etcetcetc. everyone did their best. and as xuehui puts it, we all did our best. in fact it's one of our best runs ever even though there were technical cork-ups. we can see from how everyone got involved into the whole play. the very fact that wonky could cry today shows us all that we really get into our roles and did the very best today. we really did. really did.
although im not really in any position to say anything, i wanan say im really proud of the artemis dramafeste 2006 cast and crew. you all ROCK!!! even though our efforts did not show overtly, we all knew it had paid off. in terms of friendships bonded, teamwork, coordination, the whole experience makes the difference. it's that magical. we just feel for artemis. after dramafeste, i feel a lot more sense of belonging to my faculty. i have that urge tonight to want to serve the fac well. ive decided. i really want to represent artemis and join the council. i do. i want to make the best out of these 2 yrs and be truly involved in everything. this is wad artemis dramafeste has brought me, a whole lot of lessons and resolutions and a brand new experience.
and i must say again, winning or losing doesnt matter. wad matters is wad u truly gain from it. i did. and im sure everyone else in it did too. all the best to artemis dramafeste. u all are a cool bunch. YOU GUYS RULEZZZZZZ!!!!! (oh im getting emotional. but nvm.)
