Am i disappointed with the 'gold' we got for SYF? not really. i mean, i was kind of expecting it, so when we were told the results, it didn't really come as a shock to me. Of course, deep down i was hoping for the 'honours' part to come out, but still. it could have been a 'silver' or something. so GOLD is GOOD enough for me!
strange. in IJ, we screamed out heads off when we got 'gold' for our SYFs in 03 and 05. But then again, we weren't expected to maintain 'gold with honours' or anything, so that made it easier for us. i found people's reactions to the news of our results rather amusing. they'd be like 'congrats!' but then they'd give us this smile of sympathy or something since we all know that they were expecting us to get the 'gold with honours'. but i'm not going to compare ourselves to our seniors because there's almost no common basis of comparison. The music, the judges and alot of other things were VERY different from their year. i'm not trying to say that we had it harder or anything. i'm just saying, don't compare us to our seniors. The one thing that i CAN take pride in, is knowing that our dance actually made people FEEL something. Apparently, a couple of audience members started tearing when they watched our dance. How many gold with honours schools can say that about their dance? so yeah. i'm PROUD OF YOU SAJC DANCE SOCIETY!
in my honest opinioin, (and no, i'm not giving excuses for a lousy performance because according to everyone, our dance was pretty good) i think we just didn't have what the judges were looking for. Looking at the schools who got their honours, i'd say the judges were looking for dances that were either super artistic or abstract. i shall not mention names, but there's this ONE particular school whom we all thought was just WIERD but they got their freaking gold with honours! i mean seriously. when we watched them dance, we were laughing pretty hard cuz we couldn't figure out what the bleeding hell they were trying to do! but schools like RJ, VJ, and Hwa Chong defintely deserved theirs. no qualms about that.
so now that SYF is over, RAPTURE practices will officially begin. 12 weeks. how we're going to do an entire production in 12 weeks, i don't know, but i just know that i'm going to be working my ass off till July. Good luck to me man. At the same time, i have to find a way to PULL my grades back up. Good bye social life!
People told me J2 life was hard but no one said it ripped you off any form of happiness! its amazing how numbed i've become to all the disappointments i've had to experience this year. I think my already low self-confidence has reached a negative value. Yes meenal, i know. 'Think positive campaign'. i'm trying, but each successive disappointment makes it harder to do so.
The only thing that's preventing my disintegration into a million pieces is, my friends.I really don't know what i'd do without them.
