Work IS SO DULL!!! Lol, I'm complaining and whining. But this job has given me the chance to use photoshop more than I ever have within a week at any point in time in my life. (Well, except for the submission week for O level Arts coursework - of course there is that story about how I didn't manage to submit the final copy.) And LOADS of free time to blog everyday. (:

Oh, and I need to start reading books again. My vocab is getting smaller and my command of the english language is weakening - no thanks to the kind of characters I keep getting casted as. 1 up for type casting. That and I haven't been hosting any events over the past 2 months. Or facilitating drama workshop that often over the week. Haha, speaking of which reminds me that I have to plan my instructions for SCS workshop. More kiddies!!

As you can tell by now, I have nothing to do at work now because I've been printing passport photos since this morning and due to my efficiency, finished my work. My "supervisor" isn't here either. Making my life so much easier.

Oh OH OH! I kinda adapted this image off @laticiabongnino

RABBIT!!! AWESOMESS. But her's was sitting. Mine's just chillin'.

Had rehearsal for this sunday's gig in school yesterday. WE SO MESSY. But we getting better and more awesome every time we play. (: Well, honestly that's me because I'm the one who really needs to improve. Been practising scales for a while now. Sigh, I feel like I need classes for a million things because I'm just not that artistically gifted. But for a artistically "not so gifted" kid, I'm doing pretty well. :D So we practised at Moberly, till an "audience" arrived - I think it was for the CLS FOC (just guessing cuz Eshley was there) - and they left. And after 3 songs, we decided that the mozzies at moberly were too pesky. So we went to FC 5. Wanted to practise outside, but the KARATE kidz were too distracting. So we shifted into FC 5 which was stuffy as hell. And FC 5 has such nice acoustics when it is empty. (: Learnt a bit of vocals from Alia. Yay!

GPA this sem is the best in my 2 years. Not amazing like the talented people  or the hardworkers I know from other schools and in my class. But an improvement anyway for me. (; But I'm kinda bummed to only get B+ for TiE while everyone else got an A, guess peer evaluation does speak a bit about you.

On another note, this post is really messy. I can see how I didn't score full marks for organization of arguement in CRS. XD My mind just jolts all over the place like a chipmunk of caffine, and then dies at then end of the jumping around. I think this may be a predisposition to anxiety disorder and stress? But I'm not one for self analysis for disorders, only the good stuff.

The minutes before the applause. The lights, the mics and the people. None of those register. Just your breathing. The heavy, deep, warm breath the presses against your lungs; like it is the last thing you'll remember feeling before you get overwhelmed by other senses. It is the only feeling you can put a tangible "touch" to when you hear the cheers of the audience - or lack of it. The 4 steps before an elevated surface where you will be presented to the world - to be savoured, critiqued, thought about, dismissed, loved or hated. The vulnerability is incomprehensible, just as the possibilities of flying is endless.

Every performer takes those few seconds before walking on stage. It tests the intergrity of the performance. It decides if your rehearsals have been ample, if you have all the substance behind that style. It is what I live for to enjoy and endure. Those few breaths before walking into the lights.

You never live, until you die a little inside?

Toodles, for now. Gonna wait around till work looks for me.
