THE MUSICAL WAS SO FUN:DDD

its been 1 whole week since our last performance and i miss it so bad.
this time last week we were touching up our gothic make-up for the 9pm show. SIGH.

i'll miss getting up at 11am
i'll miss doing e-learning homework from 1130- 230
i'll miss having bad time management and gulping down lunch
i'll miss walking to school in the hot sun and getting a stitch
i'll miss reaching school 5 minutes before 3pm and regretting that i didnt take my time to walk
i'll miss that very spot in the dance studio(our dressing/holding room) under the bar where diane nat cheryl and i put our bags against the mirror and hung our costumes
i'll miss diane back-combing my hair for me and piling on LOTS of gel, hair spray and coloured(red, blue, or orange) hair spray(:
i'll miss remembering to put on every single one of my ching-chang accessories
i'll miss lining up at the end of the SUPER long queue for make-up
i'll miss putting on really thick gothic black/dark blue eyeshadow and getting curly whirly patterns drawn on my face
i'll miss shivering under the aircon with cheryl keep saying it isnt cold
i'll miss having that (disgusting) dinner, seeing diane break her plastic spoon everytime, and us trying our best not to get the dark coloured lipstick on our food or in our mouths.
i'll miss rushing to the audi and being late and getting scolded by whoever
i'll miss complaining about silly warm-ups
i'll miss getting all pumped up for the performance
i'll miss waiting patiently or not so patiently in the "clock tower" in the dark with the rest
i'll miss taking the lift up 1 storey to see the 300+ audience in the basketball court and get nervousy
i'll miss diane poking the cup containing the mixture of red dye and honey and water(that jesus spreads on his clothe for golgotha) right infront of the DO NOT TOUCH sign :D
i'll miss getting the stand-by call and still having to wait for so long, frozen still
i'll miss being on the floor like the rest, hearing the footsteps of the audience coming up the few steps to the concourse i mean brimstone and hearing Eve talking and my heart pounding
i'll miss hearing the eerie music and actually dancing to it
i'll miss having the audience stare at you like youre a monster with 3 heads and having to glare back at them intimidatingly and flashing a seductive smile
i'll miss screaming my lungs out when sodom is finally destroyed and the red lights start flashing and the weird music starts playing, and crawling after ppl tryinna scare them and show them why God had to destroy sodom
i'll miss resetting that scene for the second route and hearing the serpent praise us eville ppl
i'll miss doing the same thing all over again it isnt boring at all
i'll miss going back to the dance studio sweating so much after the lots wife scene is over
i'll miss preparing for the roman soldier dance, wiping off the nice designs on my face, stuffing myextremely puffed up hair into the stupid beret and wearing the eeky green uniform
i'll miss eating lotsa snacks and taking photos while waiting for our next scene (lil less than 1 hour)
i'll miss the constant chatter in our beloved dance studio
i'll miss being called PENGY by joan cos to her i looked like a penguin in the dark when my eyeballs were "very light blue and dark brown"
i'll miss us making our way to the quadrangle and standing there tryinna be frozen stiff, but getting scolded later for figeting
i'll miss waiting and waiting there for TWO whole scenes to finish (still standing still) and finally only being rewarded by the BLINDING white light that shines straight into your eyeballs fyi we werent allowed to blink at all
i'll miss hearing the passage to hell music played on the violins so freaky and seeing the audience gather from the corner of my eye after a super long time (melissa says mary mag takes 3 seconds to come down one step. and it was 3 storeys)
i'll miss hearing the same old lines of mary and getting them memorised unintentionally
i'll miss listening to the first part of the piece, the GONG GONG GONG part
i'll miss having to wiggle my toes a lil incase i faint haha and hearing the last few notes before the first move
i'll miss dancing if you can call it that with a permanant 'i hate you' expression and trying to keep that look throughout
i'll miss doing the formations still tryinna keep the fierce look and watching the cross being carried down then Jesus stumbling out
i'll miss watching the weeping women slowly appear from all corners of the quadrangle and sing tell me Jesus why You must die so beautifully that you feel like tearing already but roman soldiers arent so i couldnt
i'll miss hearing the same lines of argument between modern Eve and the serpent
i'll miss running to the next position and watching Jesus' painful steps all the way to calvary
i'll miss the scene in the bamboo courtyard which i never ever got to see but i heard its about the crucifixion
i'll miss dashing back to the dance studio once again but this time to change back into our lots wife costumesfor THE finale and ofcourse putting back all the ching-chang accessories on again and adding eyeliner and lipstick and re-fluffing my hair
i'll miss walking in the pitch dark back to our standby postitions for finale and sitting on that concrete thing with sharona!:D chitchat for a while and play with her happy yellow scarf
i'll miss climbing on that whole wall thing and then hopping off at the end causing my poor feet to hurt so bad. for a few seconds(:
i'll miss hearing the last few words of the first verse of MY REDEEMER LIVES and scurrying to form the queue to get ready to go out at the chorus
i'll miss singing all the finale songs and clapping and swaying(i cant sway naturally for nuts. twice i swayed the wrong direction from the WHOLE entire cast):)
i'll miss bowing three times at the end and suddenly getting so darnnn HIGH
i'll miss hooking arms with joan/meibin/diane at the bamboo courtyard then SKIP HOP SKIP HOPPING all the way back to the audi:D (on the 630 show of the last day[29th] i was skipping back with diane[DIE-ant] then it was raining earlier so the floor outside the home econs kitchens were puddly and slippery and wet AND we were so oblivious to everything that i slipped and ended up sitting on the puddle like EEEWWWW hahaha half the back of my skirt was wet luckily it dried fast there was still the 9pm show to go and it was black.)
i'll miss having only ONE minute to linger and mix with the audience at the concourse at the end
i'll miss returning to the dance studio to re-draw all the designs on our faces before the next show it was always such a darn rush
i'll miss visiting the purple toilet near the bbcourt and saying hi to melissa the PINK usher. theres no one in the world who loves pink more than her i tell you hahaha fine more like hate:D
i'll miss THE WHOLE MUSICAL, the late practices that end at 11 pm, the complaining, the laughter, the fun, the indifferent audience, the frightened audience, the talkative audience, argh just EVERYTHING AND EVERYONE who had anything to do with the musical. we made history in mgs!:DD
