A Night To Remember
written on Friday, November 14, 2008 @ 12:19 PM ✈

I LOVE YOU TWO-OH-TWO! we're the best class ever.

Our final choral and drama night - 11th November 2008. We reached school early in the morning at 7.30am. I hitched a ride on Haiyun's dad's car, thanks a lot Haiyun :) and reached school together. We were all looking forward to it, some of us were rehearsing and I tried to substitute Victoria in that suitcase scene. I had this feeling where I really wanted this to happen and wanted everyone to be in the performance and where we could shine, but also at the same time, I hoped that time will slow down, or turn all the way back to sec 1 so we could relive all these wonderful memories all over again. I didn't want this to be over so soon, because I knew, once the performance was over, we won't be working together as a class on anything again.

Luckily, time was not passing so fast as I hoped, and we changed into our costumes, gathered outside the audi. But we were rather late in going in for the briefing so we were rushing to sneak in :) That feeling was kinda nice, where some of us waited up for others. So we listened to Mr Ng and Mdm Oehlers speak and haha they were trying to make us feel geared up and high. Yep, and we were the second or third class to do our tech run, and it was very scary. And up till then, my part where I left the court scene, removed my jacket and re-enter with my measuring tape was always cut off because they were two scenes. We always stopped and continued. So I was worried, didn't even know if I could successfully do it at all, plus the stage was bigger than our practice area. After that, we practised a little, secretly went back in to watch 202A's performance :P Joy kept walking in the wrong direction, anyway this is the first time watching them in full attire for me, and I was very attracted by Raymond Lim! :D I mean, Joy's acting's really good, because her 眼神's really real and straightforward. Especially when she butts back to Mian Jun after the threat, and when she runs away from the cafe, and turns back to grab Baoxian. Wah, it was damn good. Later we had more rehearsals behind and Mdm Oehlers came to give us more advice and comments.

Went for lunch @ Macs in Serene Center, I ate tons okay. Since the drama teachers said not to eat too much carbo for dinner, I figured I'd just eat a lot for lunch. Ate a fillet-o-fish, fries, coke, apple pie and chocolate mcflurry xD A lot huh. Yep, haha I ate the most, compared to Haiyun and Si Hui who were eating with me. Later on, we took a bus back to school, it was raining I think. Used the library's laptops to go bloghopping hahas. Very soon, it was almost 5. Haiyun, Si Hui and I went to our dressing room to take a peek :P But we realised it was quite small. The staircase's quite cool, haven't been in there before. There's a space outside the room too :D In the dressing room, there's those broadway-like light bulbs on the mirrors and a door that leads you out. Oh oh, there's a toilet and showering room attached XD Like hotel like that. LOL. Aircon too. We began to do random warm-ups like singing up the scale and shouting out stuff. Like what we did in the first few lessons for drama. We also put on foundation as well as blusher. Damn weird. As Hui Ker and I had to put on lipstick, but we wanted to go around the fundraising stalls to eat, so we decided to put it on later together.

As our performance time was second last, so we had the time to walk around, and I bought quite a lot of stuff xD Ohh thanks Clarissa for teh brownie. :) Then suddenly Esther came up to me and said 38 ma'ams came lol. I didn't expect to hear that at all. I didn't see them at all though. Went up to the dressing room and prepared to make up and all. Haha watched 202A's performance from the tv and then halfway through it, I could feel the nervousness and uneasiness in me already. A bit scary. Then put on lipstick. Wow. I can't remember the last time I put on lipstick okay. Yup. And the backstage crew called us to wait downstairs. I was thinking, I can't believe it! We have been working on this play since the start of the year, where we all had funny and random ideas. Then it slowly evolved to a theme. And we even figured out the costumes and lines, broke it down to scenes. Redid things because it was too long. And it all would be resulting in the play we were going to put up to the audience. I didn't know if I wanted time to go fast or slow, I couldn't decide.

Very soon, we were brought into the dark side of the stage, the right wings. It was pitch black, except for a few blue lights coming out from the floor lights. The fact that you couldn't see much made me very nervous. I was afraid I'd trip over something or I'd lose something in the dark, say my measuring tape and can't find it. Goshh. And the moment was here. The emcees made an opening for us and some of us brought the props out. I could see Victoria holding onto our ropes xD And then I began to prepare myself by gathering the four chairs needed in an order. Hui Ker and I were on standby to bring chairs out for court scene. NOW is the time. We went out, during the left wash, and place the court settings and sat down. I think my throat was like stuck, I quickly gulped down my saliva. Then Joy began to speak. I remember I stood up and projected my voice as loud as I could :D And it all went pretty well. But I couldn't really see the audience very well, just one vague patch of bright light. Haha, thanks Jiajia for sitting beside me, and making me feel less worried!

Then, I quickly walked out of that scene and rushed into the wing to remove my jacket. I was like running. And thank you so much Jun Wei! :) for helping me guard my measuring tape, and passing it to me. You're really reassuring! You even nudged me to cue ourselves to go out for the shopping scene. I'm sure I wouldn't do this well without you :) Really soon, minutes went by, and before we knew it, our play had come to an end. We walked out for the credit line and bowed to the audience. Wow, what?! This is the end?

After changing out of our costumes, we gathered back into the auditorium for the debrief. And okay skip all that. It was quite touching okay xD Well, we were sitting at different parts of the audi, and when it was time for us to go, Haiyun and I began walking out the doors with a crowd rushing out. Then subconsciously, I could hear someone shouting two two! And my eyes were like wide open, and I stared at Haiyun and she had this same look too. I was saying, "Eh, I think I heard someone from 2/2 calling us! I think we should go back!" we stood at the door, trying to wait for the crowd to go out and trying to squeeze back in. And wow, it's really moving to see many people from 2/2 walking towards the stage from different directions, like responding to the "call". We did our class cheer for the LAST TIME, I guess, it's our last. And maybe it's our last time wearing our class tee. Then we took a class picture :)

Hey, but we shouldn't say it's the end! The legacy of 202'08 continues forever, and no one can change the fact that we're from 202. Keep all the lovely memories in your heart. You know somewhere deep down, you've got the 202 spirit. :) Even though we might be separated next year, well, most of yall are in 302. I'm quite sad, because I really want to be part of 302 where most of yall would be. Well, we must keep in contact :D I hope that we can have a class chalet!!

And I just wanted to say (not sure if you would see this), thank you everyone, every single person from 202 for making my first 2 years in Nanyang so memorable and perfect. I mean it was all so good, like a fairytale okay. You make this class so lovable and making me look forward to going to school everyday to see yall in class doing things, mugging or playing (cards) in the morning. (: There's no one in the class I'd hate. I hope yall love the class and never forget any single one of us. :) Hehe, anyway I just wanted to let yall know how much I love yall! 202's the best class ever, and we rock.
