Ha, turns out that i would be acting in one of the skits for DRAMAFEST 2008! actually, i am just satisfied with being one of the crew, silently lending my help to the prominent beings in the spotlight. however, i'll be sharing the spotlight this time too! haha, i sound as though im crazed about it.. and i am!! i have never acted in a true skit before in front of an audience (unless u count the *ahem* good old days *ahem* when i was in ccs in sec 1) yea, although my role is really really small, just a grocer known as a 'grocer' with no other characteristic name at all, i'm still so happy and elated! i didn't count in the fact that i would actually want to perform on stage, somemore i volunteered that role myself, to exchange with someone else who's less interested than me (haha, michelle!) below is the scene, i have about 4 to 5 lines and im glad that i can participate as one of the cast and dun have to carry so big a burden like the main leads..


scene 6: The grocery

*James approaches the grocer counter*

Grocer: Hey, James! NOw that's a rare sight. I usually see your dear wife Joyce around here instead!

James smiles forcefully): Well... Yes. I was wondering if you have any rat poison for sale. The missus wants it. Too many rats around these days.

Grocer (frowns): And i always thought Joyce was a too tidy to have rats around. Ah, well... Proves you can't beat them all... Filthy rats... Strange.. I swear she came down jsut a couple of days ago to get some rat poison... Your house must be ridden with rats...

*James clears his throat*

James: The poison?

Grocer: Oh yes! Sorry.

*Grocer takes poison out from beneath counter*

Grocer: There you go. 5 bucks please.

James: Gladly.

*James leaves the scene hurriedly*

*stage cleared*


There! 4 dialogues in total! and if u count the second dialogue as having more than one line then i suppose i have more than 4 lines! whootssss!!!!! im such an easily satisfied human being. and im so looking forward to wearing the daudy and baggy grocer's clothes... i adi have the image i my mind.. a brown sort of baggy dress with an apron over it! haha! but the play is set in modern times so i suppose anything casual would do. either way, im extremely fine, haha. it's so terribly fine! and i pray that 07A01's PLAY WOULD BE THE BEST AMONG ALL THE PLAYS PUT UP, excluding that by the teachers, haha!what for you put in effort in doing something, if you dun aim to be the best?

oh, and i just heard some surprising news from an ex sec shool classmate. one of the chem teachers who has taught us before has been sacked.. well, i suppose you can't really expect a teacher whose unsure of even what he's teaching to continue to be allowed a teaching post.. but i kin of feel sorry for him, well, reminds me of the time when he heard students gossipping abt him and he got hurt and angry.. anw, nhh business is not my business anymore and i dun have anything to do with it other than the fact that it has served as a vessel for part of my education for four years of my life. seriously, i dunno whats wrong with chi schools and conventy and st. schools. in chi schools, you have these spastic anti-christ authoritative figures asking teachers to take off their necklaces with a cross pendant and in schools which are supposed to be teaching good morals and stuff, you have the highest abortion rate (i got this info from a fren in hc) and the students are like all trying so hard to be americanized, with the slang and everything and looking down on ppl unlike them and stuff.. as in we're still living in the victorian age with the different classes, funny.

cell advance in another... 10 hrs and 15 mins!! hope i will come out unscathed and sane.
