20 seconds of fame...

I ended off the day with a preview of the upcoming StageIt annual production "Lao Jiu", where i am acting as an Ah beng! Haha hilarious i tell you. It's the first time ever i took part in an annual production in which I have no lines!! And no, my war cry in my scene before i 'attack' Jeremy is not considered saying anything. It's just... noise. hahaha. What exactly do i have to do? Walk in stage with a metal stool in hand, stare at jeremy, smoke an imaginary cigarette, blow out imaginary smoke, size up jeremy, and then attempt to attack him (with war cry) before escaping from the police. Haha what can i say? I am destined for great things. Hahhaah

So as you can probably guess from the title of this entry how long i was on stage for. Yup. A good, solid 20 seconds or so. Haha! That's 20 seconds too long, if you ask me. The stage and the limelight should be focused on the hardworking, brilliant main cast. I must admit, they really are a cosy, noisy, and united bunch... i'm glad it's turning out this way. Cos really in the end, it's the friendships that matter most.

Special kudos to Louis and Tabby who have worked tirelessly, and facing pressures from all angles to come up with a solid play. That they will achieve. I'm certain. And i also reserved some praises to a specific few in the cast too!

Diana: Brilliant. Nothing less. you have convinced me with your role as the mother of Lao Jiu. Don't bother what cheryl said about you not having enough love for lao jiu.

John Lim: you were born to be act as a taxi-driver, i swear. Haha excellent job.

Chloe: You're just ADORABLE. hahaha but that's my opinion.

Jeremy and Jason: Dang, God only knows what kinda pressure you go through. I don't know how you guys do it, but well done!

And of course each and every single member in the cast put in their best, and they actually did well! So proud of them. More than all that, i feel... i feel re-connected with them somehow. It's still my regret that i wasn't able to stay in the main cast... But i'm glad that at least i'm with them now.

We're moving into the final week before the performance... well, I'd suggest to them to buckle up their seatbelts... cos it's gonna be the ride of their lives.

Hey riddle of the day: How does a skeleton make music?
