My six day camp hd its downs and ups cos ogl matters came into the pic as well when i was camping from 9am-6pm this whole week except sunday.
戏剧营是新加坡艺术学会的明利与他的team 举办的。今年已是第13界了。
First day, I didn't know anyone in my group. The four of us from MJC- Siew Li, Jason, me, Jing Wei were seprated into groups one to four respectively. Sigh... cos meeting and getting to know people is a pretty tiring "procedure" and job to be carried out. I just feel taxing doing it. so sigh... gorup 3 people seem pretty nice. we were introduced to 7 teachers and Ming Li. Actually, many people knew him or at least saw him before, cos of syf this year.
We then met our 助教, Teng Yu from zhong zheng, 16 this year. My first impression was that he's very slack. And indeed, during ice breaking, he chose a leader-Wan Ting aka Michelle as our leader and to give ourselves a name. Until reaching lunch time, we decided on Unlimited (无限). We sat together to have our lunch anyway, even if we had nothing much to talk about. Chicken rice... After lunch, separation to activity room of Radin Mas CC to carry out drama lesson and theatre sports. Our teacher is Ryon, Li Yong Chang. He's from M'lsia. ANother Liu lao shi was form M'lsia, KL as well. So they had a bit of M'lsia accent while speaking.
5pm... We went back down to the hall to play games between groups to earn points. We were 1st...
2nd day... everything is almost the same rountine. we had to do warm-up by dancing the theme song of the camp. it's really cheena and very China... the steps and the lyrics are China... maybe cos our dance teacher is 古新华老师. Heard that he got 1st for latin dance in his 洲at China. then that day, we learnt about script writing.... 刘锦康老师taught us... it is very useful i thought. during lunch, 古老师 taught people who are interested, latin... i watched... juzt some shaking of butt moves are not easy moves. groups compete we played chair game at the end till 6pm... we lost... and we were last cos we couldn't get enough chairs to get the whole group up. But we did not give up.. I guess tt's more than enough... team spirit exceeds the disappointment of losing. we knew each other better.
3rd day... everything went on as usual too... more dance moves... then today's lesson, our Li lao shi taught everyone expressions of actors and actresses so that we can touch people or influence the audience. it's useful... blah blah blah... another day finally ended!!
thursday... 4th day! somehow yea!! cos it's ending... everything went on as per normal. today's lesson is by 冯世全老师with the aid of Grace 老师or 郑凤玲老师. Both of them were from Hong Kong's hao xi ban... quite unclear but we can still understand. he taught us a lesson about what the director of a play shloud be playing as so as to let the ply go on efficiently and effectively. for 分组上课, group 2 and 3 merged... and we played game... then our teachers decided to have a more of 内心的感受de lesson. so they played music.... blah blah blah... damn emo lor... many people cried... i cried too... haix... really badly... cos liu lao shi said ya... er... they teachers... drama teachers, really appreciated grp 3's spirit... cos lunch was an hr... so we decided to eat really fast and cos teng yu got prom, so he couldn't come... so... our dear GL (group leader-Wan Ting) initiated to take the key form ming li and hurried us up to start rehearsing our 小品for saturday's performance and our cheer. Sad... liu lao shi said too many touching stuff... he cried too... and accompanying the damn emo music... worse!!! haix... our group girls.. emo emo emo.... but i love them... ya! =))
friday... blah blah... same stuffs.... we had rehearsals for saturday... we were pretty confident! the storyline is damn emo. Li lao shi say we are the only group cos other groups are more like 闹剧. so wu xian's drama may be very outstanding. I love 无限!!!
today!!! is the day!!! venue was shifted to 新加坡艺术剧场学会at Tanjong Pagar,. it was once an old school. now, it's TAPAC (Telok Ayer Performing Arts Centre) I acted as a mother. I brought my costumes, some make-ups and my script... heavy... but i guess i really look like one...so it's worthwhile bringing them. Whenever it comes to the last day of some things, I got emo and may cry... but even treasure them... may find out 无限的好. 无限真棒!!! Today's time pass really fast... we had dance from 9am to 10am... rehearsals from 10am-12pm... lunch from 12pm-2pm. we had more rehearsals when we've finished eating and all actors and actresses 培养-哭-的情绪, 因为大家都被要求要在结尾时-哭. 压力好大!因为真的不容易啊!
