a beautiful victory. a proud comeback. or may i say, a sweet revenge. i still don't admit the loss for SYF (partly because there was no judge's comments so i don't know what's wrong). but what we had achieved today, is beyond words. it's a great sense of satisfaction, that after all of the hard work we had put in, after all of the pent up anger we had inside, and after everything we have went through together. the drama team has literally went through thick and thin TOGETHER. i don't wish to repeat myself, so here is the e-mail i sent to the drama team, that basically encompasses all of the things i want to say:
Dear all,
Sorry for not being able to see ur wonderful faces just now when the result was announced. Was being tortured by my dance teacher while you guys were all over the moon. Actually I'm really surprised over the results because I didn't feel any form of stress and minimal anxiety before the performance. Probably only that small amount of jittery feeling before going on stage, but yes, that's all I'd felt then. Maybe it's that relaxed feeling that I felt that made me behave more naturally on stage. Like I said, when we do better than the other teams in the finals, we'll be the ones having the last laugh. I know this is mean of me, but I was not convinced of why we had lost then (they should have given us the judge's comments la). Yes, revenge is sweet, but knowing every single one of you is really even sweeter and such a blessing to me. Over this short period of time that we have worked together, I have enjoyed myself so very much.
Although sometimes we are just 'wasting' time doing nothing but crapping and doing silly things, I treasure these times because I am able to have fun with you guys at the end of the taxing days and to get to know all of you more. I don't know how to describe how much fun and joy I had found in all of you (amidst all of the hard work and suffering we went through together). This is my first, and probably last, SYF cum competition. This is also probably the first time I have been in a large-scale drama production. Unexpectedly, I have found numerous joy and fulfillment in my first proper drama. I have also learnt a lot of things from all of you. And when I see everyone sacrificing many things for drama, coming to drama practices, rehearsals, performances although you guys are ill and/or busy, I feel inspired and motivated. All of the ups and downs we had experienced were worth it.Don't all of you think so? I believe all of us have learnt a lot from this experience that we will always treasure. (Yup, I'm an emo-kid =P)
I look forward to being able to perform with u guys again for Yechuan =D (Of course after the 1-week break Yuchen promised us) Rest well and take care. Sleep as much as possible and take care of your health k. Beware of Yuchen on Tuesday lest he forgot to take his medicine for insanity. You guys rawk! =))
Love, Silvia
