well,today went back to YT bright and early in the morning(ok,it was freakin raining heavily,so it wasn't really bright,but u get the picture...) so yea,met up with ZHC to go to sch,and i had to bring an umbrella for him to shelter his precious hair,hahhaahaha, so i dumbly brought it along to school....lol,he said, and i quote,"the rain is acidic".....haha,well its just him,no probs with me.....
so we met up with Han Ming,Qiao Chu,Rus,Fiz and Daryll,and we all headed to school.....
we reached there about 8.30am i guess,and the concert was just about to start....but this year,it was a combined concert,not split up like the past few years.Must be ''Fish'' Tan's funny idea to combine...oh well.....anyway the performace started with various bands dedicating songs to teachers,and to be really really truthful,the performances were quite bad i suppose.....the bands were all in a mess,the lead singers could hardly be heard over the noise of the audience,and even if they could be heard,their voices would not even land them near the auditions of Singapore Idol.....believe me,u wouldn't want them to sing in any audition(it makes me think how they even got thru the auditions to perform today).....
anyway,the backstage crew was partly to blame as well(as usual).....the amps for the electric guitars were so soft that only a soft sound could be heard,the microphones were terrible as usual,always crapping up the worst possible times,and the only thing which was making most of the noise were the drums....and throughout each band performance,my arm hair was literally standing up cause it was really very difficult to listen to it.......
well,as the performance progressed(no more bands,thank goodness!),it started to get interesting,more dancing and singing,which was quite standard....but there were a few acts which were particularly interesting. this year was the first time that karate was performed,and it was quite cool actually...hahaha,because it was something different from the singing and stuff..... there was another act which might be familiar with some of u,there was this dude who was immitating a famous stand-up comedian,Russell Peters.....yea,Russell Peters,and tat guy was quite good actually,he cracked a few good jokes,kudos to that brave comedian-wannabe.....hahaha..
well,after the whole performance gig,all the teachers were invited up on stage to cut a Teachers' Day cake,like usual,and the principal had to give a short speech,and it turned out that "Fish" Tan was taking the whole school thru his teaching experience,blah blah blah,saying that this celebration in YT was the "most colourful and vibrant performance in my 15 years of teaching"and it wad kinda dumb if u ask me(he probably said this to his other schools as well).....goodness,stop boasting and just cut the cake la,so every1 can go home without looking at ur boring face....oh well....he went on for about 5 mins....in the mean time,i went out of the hall to meet some of my other frens,and we just chit-chatted and did a bit of catching up with each other....
so after the hall was cleared of students,we went to look for our teachers and just mingled around with them and my dear form teacher, Ms Chiang, forgot some of my classmates' names!!!! hahaha, it had only been like what? 5-6 months,and u forgot some of their names already,hahaha,oh well,she's like that,but we just got to chat with her as well to pass some time.....after that,we bade each other farewell,and went our seperate ways......
so yea,that was just about it,although i was supposed to go with some of my buds to watch a movie,but they planned to watch 'Snakes on the Plane',or something like that,and those movies dont really appeal to me(really sorry guys),so im back home and doing this little(ok,super long) update now....and yea,tats it for now i guess..... i'll blog again some other time....
~moey out~
