just for one moment touch the sky


Current music: Reach- reach the musical
Current mood: happy, sad, contemplative
This week has been a blast for me and the cast members.
i am speechless.
the musical started last September, when the auditions began.
i never wanted to go for the audition, but for m&d, i went for it.
surprisingly, i got in though i never thought i would cause i was not prepared.
people came and left the musical soon after, i decided to stay on because of, well, my portfolio.
practice for the musical began during the holidays and i really didn't like being inside the musical, i was complaining to every human i saw that i did not want to be part of it. i tried to quit, not once, but many many countless times, but without fail, ms fern would always stop me.
and i thought she was just being mean and that she didn't understand how i would feel.
jan 2010 came shortly after many musical practices. Chingay was coming up and we were all so busy with chingay that we couldn't go for musical practices.
many teachers were disappointed with us cause we went for chingay rehearsals that fell on every sat, with clashed with the musical practices.
after chingay ended, we went for the musical, but our hearts were not in it. i skipped every single ydance practice for musical and i nearly had to leave ydance.
there were so many things in my way that made me want to drop the musical.
in feb or so, we got our act 2 script, in only 2 months or less we had to perfect our musical.
things were extremely tough because not every one's heart was in it, honestly, i doubt mine was either.
many things happened, many scoldings, much tears and sorrows and hatred was in the way of doing a good show.
throughout the last week of our rehearsals, everyone decided to change for the better and do our best because we knew what we wanted. many of us wanted a standing ovation. many of us wanted to show others that they could be better than the rest.
during the RP rehearsals, we gave our all and decided not to let anything get in our way.
many of us fell sick but we did not give up, in our 18 cast members, half of us were all sick.
on the actual day of performance, many of us cried before the show because of so many things.
mrs grothers was an awesome director, so was ms umi. they have taught us so many things that we will never forget in our lives.
ms siti was also an awesome choreographer too who taught me to do so many stuff.
i am truly extremely grateful to what they all have done for this show.
yesterday was the actual performance, everyone was in sky high because we all knew we did the best that we had ever done in our lives.
wow.
i am truly grateful to ms fern for not letting me quit in the past.
i love everyone in the musical.
lotsa love!
