Thank God! I've finally finished perfing back in my high sch!Truth be told, it wasn't really something i've expected. well, i'm speaking more on the negative side.

Firstly, it wasn't really planned well. The performers themselves had to do the labour works ourselves such as setting up stuffs(eg: pushing and carrying the piano to the performance space). That, i'm fine with that. Then, there are last-minute conflicts between participants(one wants to use their own sound system and another wants to use theirs). It was crappy!
Then, secondly, i was asked to perform as an introduction/prelude whereas i'll be playing my own music whilst the people entered the hall. I'm fine with it, as long as i get to play music for the others to appreciate. But, then, the most pissed off thing they did was to stop me when i was playing the climax of a piece. That teacher said "Hey, the VIP is here. You've to stop!". I was quite shocked initially. It was totally not planned! Plus, that simply shows that most people in Singapore don't appreciate music at all. trying thinking of a famous pianist/guitarist/violinist/etc from Singapore.. ..

Worse, i didn't have a goodnight sleep the night before because i was looking forward and anticipating the whole event soo muchh. Well, look at the positive, i'm grateful that i managed to get through the day. Due to the lack of sleep, by the time my 2nd perf came, i was totally shagged that i was overwhelmed by dizziness and nausea. But, thank God, i managed to get through the day.(: Thank you for the opportunity you gave me to perf back in my high sch, glad to meet up with my high sch teachers!((:
So much of the 3 hours of sleep i'd that night, i guess i won't be holding myself back for longer beauty sleeps for the next couple of days. thus, it will be some time before my long practices kick in again.
