a big thank you for all those who came to support 紫飞机 flight sgd 02!
hope you all enjoyed the items put up. they were all written, directed and performed with love from all of us from 福建会馆青年团 a.k.a QNT.

just tonight we had our 庆功宴, which essentially means dinner to celebrate the success of the performance. had too much fun! but the sad thing was that ONCE AGAIN i was unable to clinch the 最佳女主角 award. i mean yes its all done in the name of fun but personally for me, i find that the award is as good as an indication of how your QNT mates think of your performance. and i value their opinion more than others, because they are the ones who really witness your progress. ah well. i guess i'll just wait till the next show for the chance to improve more and more. but, when is the next time?

thank goodness this week was recess week, which meant that i could prepare things to give tonight. i gave each of the cast something of their own, and printed them on an A1 panel (job hazard) and cut them out for everyone. a little something that happened was that i went to poster connection at sunshine plaza to print the panel. its opening hours:
mon-fri: until 7pm
sat: 9am-2pm

i reached the place on sat to collect but i was late by 40mins. so i had to pop by the shop beside it to print. so in total i have 2 copies. ugh. i hate my own laziness. should have checked properly before i did that. anyhoo, here are the photos:

i don't know how a hangover or jetlag feels like, but post production blues are really the worst to go through, at least for me. i feel too happy doing what i do, and perhaps i can say that it is almost like a form of escape for me from my academic life, where i can just be with the people i've known forever. every lesson i can tell myself to pull through it because there's rehearsal to rush to in the night.

but now its over, there's like a gaping hole in my life, once again. the funny thing is that i have a million things to do, but still i feel empty. is this what QNT productions do to me? sometimes it also makes me wonder if what i am currently doing is what i want? or do i want to really make theatre the life i want?
YET AGAIN when there is no productions, i cope pretty well with my life.

SIGH.


when i look at 丽婷, i can't help but feel that this is what i may be if i devote myself into this. and then i look at how miserable she felt, doing something she loves but getting so disappointed at the trials and tribulations of the productions. because theatre is highly emotional (you exercise alot of emotions), it wears you out eventually, and you'll feel lost. like BLANK. i'm just giving a theory of what may or may have happened.

gosh. realised how my post has degenerated from a positive tone to a depressing mood. but i'm glad to say i have no regrets for this production. and i have learnt to let go of alot of things in life, i'm sure as productions go by, it'll only get easier. like what clara said,
"what doesn't kill you makes you stronger."
