Oh screw it. F***king screw it. Am damned pissed off...cos sthg juz happened and ruined my entire night. Yes it did, altho it's such a waste of effort and energy on this person. I wonder why i bother. Juz needed to bitch i guess...paiseh ah...always having such a negative beginning to my posts.
In other thoughts, twas opening night of Pan-Island-Expressway tonight!!! And had a jolly gd show...altho screwed up one sound cue, but overall I think nobody knew except for the production pple. But oh well, Tze Chien (aka TC, the director and playwright) seemed rather pleased at the end of it all so tt was alright!! Well, all u pple who are gonna miss it....tough!! Cos I think it's helluva gd show and it can only get better for the next two nights! *yesssss!!
Heh...must be all the well wishes I got today and yesterday.....all the lovely pple praying for me and all....had.... Kiat who did admin for my sondheim class, Weixiong whom I worked with on the set of Right Ritual (really brilliant guy), Daphne and Shou Chen(!!! ;p) - both of which were frm my sondheim class, and Meiyee, fellow confirmation catechist. All these unexpected pple actually made the effort to either email or sms me this morning (Kiat and Weixiong)!! Am so touched man....*sniff* Perhaps only theatre pple will understand such madness tt we all go thru.
Oh! And I forgot to add....TC gave everyone in the pdn a toy car. And not juz any toy car, one which suited all of our roles in the play. I got a tpt & Communications truck....heh =) Think I've come a long way from when I first met TC in our first play production lesson. Thought he was the bloody big irritating snob....who was so diva lor. But oh well....now I think he's kinda cool....not to mention brilliant too!
Ah...la di da....lots to think abt!!
Oh! Thanks to Avi, we now have archive links to my blog!! =)
p/s: Avi, u think u cld try to shift the links closer to the ones on top? so save a bit more space...thanks babe!

Can't believe it!! Production week is here! And PIE is gonna be showing in 3 days time! Woohoo!! Altho the actual adrenaline hasn't kicked in yet cos I haven't actually made it into the theatre we had our last rehearsal at TNS at Marine Parade and altho it sounds funny but...well, i think i'm gonna kinda miss tt place...esp goin down there and editing my sounds and all. Guess its so much work put into it lah.
Hoping and praying that...
1) I don't screw up the sound cues during shows
2) I will be able to finish my essays in time to hand up
3) More pple will come and watch the show!
They are all equally impt, but most recently thinking along the lines of being a little disillusioned and disgruntled with the world, #3 has been really bothering me. Am more than a little disappointed that there are so little pple who are actually coming to watch PIE. For those who are already coming, I thank you...and I think u certainly have not wasted your money. As for those...who...said they were coming and for some reason cldn't....well....tough.
Was beginning to wonder whether it's cos u noe....i'm such a tyrant and pple juz say, "ya okok" when they don't really wanna. Or...maybe it's juz a bad time...near exams and assignment deadlines and all so pple not free....not interested.... sigh. Perhaps it's also difficult to sell tix when ur not acting...cos pple can't laugh at u and see u make a fool of urself on stage so perhaps tts y they decide not to come.
But anyway....i'm still glad for the experience...as much as i like theatre, I'm hardly involved so much in a particular production so I'm quite happy tt there's so much tt i can take frm this!
Am also worried abt my Francis production. Pple don't seem to be v enthusiastic abt it somehow...not quite sure how to handle being a producer. :/ There muz be a way to handle extremely disappointing situations and not ending up wif heart attacks or stomach ulcers. I wonder how tho.
Oh well, guess tis not the time to think too much abt all this stuff...got essays due and as usual I'm still procrastinating by blogging and chatting on icq. heh. Tis back to thinking abt Greek Drama!

Am feeling very very restless tonight. I wonder if it's cos I been watching too many psycho shows. The whole of last night had psycho disturbing shows on almost every channel. How irritating. But i watched anyway..since I was already 'into' the story.
Reminds me of the time when I went back to sch on a bloody saturday morning to watch Francis Ford Coppola's Dracula 2000 or sthg. When i absolutely detest horror. Was freezing my bloody butt off in the lib, watching the freaky images all alone, and not even given the liberty to scream. Bah. And today watched another disturbing show...emotionally disturbing la....cos it's abt how much these women have to give up in order for their career to be successful and stuff. It's based on the play Top Girls by Caryl Churchill and its the BBC version so some of them look really ugly. heh.
Went for supper wif Shane just now and really enjoyed myself! It's fun hanging out and just talking abt stuff and nonsense...am glad to have a fren like him. =)
Am going for my very first cantor meeting tmw. Wonder if this is really gonna work out. Cos i dunno anyone. Sigh. Juz hafta be thick skin lor. :/
