Impresario 2011

being at Impresario again, this time not as a partcipant but as an audience, was really quite an experience.
(not just the looting of goodie bags, that is. though that was quite a highlight of the night, seeing us all scrambling around NTU hall like scavengers. :P IT WAS FUN)

being back at the hall and seeing everything happen again--the lights, the makeup, the crazy hair, the crazier costumes, the prize presentations, the victory shouts & cheers, and of course, the big blast welcome outside the hall doors... it was like a memory from a distant dream--one that took place not so long ago. being part of the screaming supporters was wayyy more fun and amazing than i thought it would ever be! :D (and so was bouncing up and down on the super bouncy NTU chairs)

all credit goes to the wonderful juniors who've been sacrificing endless amounts of time, effort, sleep, and of course their health to rush out an item amid other heavy commitments. like SCHOOL (we are in NUS after all), SUAD, Evo, Hall performances, StudioWu recitals, NS, and all other rehearsals they might have been involved in one way or another.

this was one costly experience, from what i can see. be it from their CAP, their emotional well-being, their physical health, their relationships with their parents, their relationships with their team mates, even. what a price to pay for a 3-4 month long gruelling and trying experience.

but last night, it was Blast! pride night, really. at Temasek Hall DP, and also at Impre where we clinched DOUBLE CHAMPS.
***Impresario 2011 CHAMPIONS & 1st RUNNERS-UP!!!***

all one week after SUAD. words cannot express the pride and joy i feel for my friends, and Blast! now.
(speaking of which, i never wrote an entry for SUAD at all, did i? :p)




Proud to be a Blast!ard. :)

i'm not sure if you guys thought it was worth it, but i felt so honoured and blessed just to be there. :)

i also searched my computer harddrive for pictures of our own Impre experience, and looking at those pictures brings back so so many good memories.




and here we are, all happy and ecstatic as we get ready to hit the stage:



and of course, who can forget this moment?




i miss joining competitions and forcing myself to level up.
i miss having a team to join these competitions with.
i miss pushing myself like i did at this time last year.

doing concerts is amazingggg. SUAD was amazing. i loved every moment of it.
but a competition is different. and i miss this different experience.

i wonder if there'll be chances in the near future to do what i used to do. but of course they are other things in life that i need to commit myself to. so let's see how the Lord maps it out in the near future. :)
