If you talked about xiaopin'08 it could be seen as something very normal and less significant in view of the more acknowledged productions coming up, something for the huiyuans to be able to take part in considering the disappointment of the cancellation of qihang. there was nothing really very big or anything really impresive or awe-inspiring on the whole, just attending normal paiju over a rather short period of time and doing the normal stuff over and over again. these past few days have been feeling rather ordinary too, going about doing our usual stuff, and i see myself wondering why there's no sense of worry or stress or excitement or anything.
But xiaopin'08 doesn't make me numb, as i've discovered. It's true that nothing can ever replace the spirit of qihang but no matter what we do there's the huahui spirit that will always be there even if we are not openly excited about it or anything. These past few months have been nothing big, but I find myself remembering more and more of the little things that we do. And now after everything is over and done with we're kind of like lost sheep in huahui cos we don't really have many places to go and a goal to work towards anymore.
Today was perfect; nothing big but it was sweet and simple. Arriving at school in the morning and pai-ing a little, and getting everything ready while doing nothing actually in the meantime, getting the presents to the yanyuans and getting the makeup and all that on at upcc. We waited for our turn, saw some pretty good jus, and I'm relieved that no major problem e.g. time running out happened this year (last year's experience... ), and everything was just fine, and just smooth. Then we headed back to school, ate together and walked around, got our bags and got ourselves home.
Yanyuans; mingee peishan rachael and vivian, Ensemble; blenda yunwen ethel caiyuan shinwei, SMs; yanyi xinyuun, make-up; cheryl seet josy sheila kuanyu s3zhixin; Daoju; qihong valencia sabrina pearlyn serene chua chernhui jo joyce; tech; peilin, weeleng, ziai, Daoyans; weimin shushien honghwee. It's been hard on everyone but thank you so so mcuh, everyone. Yanyuans and ensemble for all the paiju time and the really great job today, and all the time spent with each other doing weird things and xiaochang and etc etc, The backstage people for putting up with our complaints and the SMs for helping us settle everything properly, and the tech people for your pro-ness and for the lame-ness before we went up together (:
It's true that you don't really feel that strongly about things during the process, but somehow once it's over you start feeling the emptiness already. Results don't matter, seriously, because a lot of times we are often blindly fighting against the odds. I think that at least from what we watched and saw today we are still of a comparable standard to a lot of the other schools, and we're trying to learn and continue to move ahead for huahui (:
It's hard to put everything across in words properly, and I think a lot of what is written here feels like strange crap, but anyway it's been a long time since I ever posted something this long hohoho and thankyou everyone who has really given support and all. And we'll all cont to help jubilate jiayou jiayou and yay :D
NHZBZ'08 im already really starting to feel like im going to miss you all ):
