Why do I feel so dead beat though its a friday and I actually reached home quite early today ):
Only two days of school but there have been like landmark events. So on Thursday I went to school and then in the morning they were saying that Mr. Lau is going to stop teaching us because he's going for some course at NTU. And some more he only posted the SMB message this late because he didn't want us to get gifts for him. Its so depressing he's like a super awesome math tutor! Any teacher can teach adequately but he's always so patient, really he has limitless patience, and he knows how to handle our class without ever getting angry or shouting at us. Like we can just talk to him and wail and bemoan about how evil math is and he will just tell us some epic lines like 'if you want to cheat, can cheat, just don't make it so obvious la'. Haha. And lots of other funny things la. I hope that his 'see you next year' comment is really true. It has only been half a year and we have to give up all the dragging-feet-to-math-class and switching classroom routines, and all the other stupid things we do. Plus we're not getting Miss Fok for econs too! I hate changing teachers ):
Helping out at Short+Sweet is quite slack, haha. We only have things to do before and after the show, and the audience is quite small so there's no need to actually manage a lot of people. So we managed to spend lots of time watching the show :D I watched everything yesterday cos Karene and Eeshawn were doing their second day and they alr watched most parts the day before. M18 scenes haha. COOL. (Cos I'm like, the youngest audience there maybe. Hurr) But okay the M18-worthy scenes were just...explicit and there didn't seem to be must significance in them. I actually prefer the plays which did not rely on sex alone as a selling factor or as the pretext of examing some serious social issue. I liked The Table though I think its not a crowd favourite cos it wasn't really a comedy. The symbolism was really good! Just 2 chairs, 1 table, and two individuals, and you can see their emotional relationship and how it is presented physically. Lots of underlying meanings in everything they say and I think it was a show with a lot of heart. And Buds was so cool. They acted as tastebuds in the tongue and used lots of physical theatre to express things. The dialogue was cute and the actions all actually made a lot of sense unlike another play whcih seemd to be using imitating actions as like, well, a way to act cheem. Hurr. It was nice seeing lots of different things within the span of a few hours though. Tomorrow we're going SHHKACT's pantomine :D Haven't seen their productions for super long since I was a kid, I hope its good or else I'll feel like I wasted their money. And the rest of the zhiwei's one too. Eeppp.
OKAY I SHALL SLEEP NOW. BEAT BEAT BEAT. (why do I get reminded of Michael Jackson? :x)
