After yesterday's mindless ramble I feel so much better now, like, somewhat back to myself again. Revived. I feel a relatively significant lift in my confidence reserves and, well, getting a bit optimistc about my future (albeit still kind of gloomy regarding the entire picture) - which is usually not so commonly observed in my daily interactions with the world, but I guess exceptions could be welcomed once in a while. :)
Thanks, really.
Ah so on to today...uneventful, I mean rather uneventful, but there were a few unexpected thingums that happened for a good change. You know the Tempest? Oh scratch that, of course you don't, since I haven't been blogging. Well anyway it's this play from Shakespeare's famous literary work, and apparently ordering of tickets and stuff were supposed to have been settled like 2 months before, which were, but...my SAP cum Lit RA friend today suddenly told me she couldn't attend the play and asked if I could go in her place - which was like in the last 2 minutes before the meeting time and left me rushing like crazy to the foyer. Having a certain English teacher in charge of the whole thing doesn't really help the situation either, you know.
Actually I didn't mind. I was in fact rather glad about the change; I could skip SAP for the entire afternoon, since I was not really looking forward to awkward moments whereby the teacher would stare at my horrendous self-considered completed PT, and I got to watch something LITty(!) in which I was actually interested. The thing was at Esplanade, which is like...central or something. Bus ride was too short. =_= I was hoping for a nice bit of air-conditioned break.
So yeah the play itself was really, REALLY nice. Screw not understanding like 70% of the show due to thick accents and notorious Elizabethan English and not knowing the plot beforehand - AND reading the synopsis only very briefly - but, BUT, the acting was downright awesome. There were comedy scenes which wrenched laughter out of the entire hall's worth of audience, and by that I mean it was absolutely funny. Man these guys sure know how to act.
They are, after all, professionals, and I have to say every clap in the eventual applause was rightfully well-earned.
I had no idea how to get to the MRT from the Esplanade after the play. QAQ Stuck around with Hui Yie and Anissa - who left halfway with her sis to hitch a taxi - and it just so happened that HY and I both took the red line so we travelled together. I just feel kind of cheated that her stop was only 11min away whilst mine was 47. Yes, I remember the exact numbers. -.o
Oh well. To sum it up today was a relatively good day. New philo teacher, interesting chem lesson (Doctor Slatter's very entertaining Acidic experiments o.<), cool Chinese block, slack periods, congress hogging CLE...and reminds me, tomorrow I have FREE BLOCK! That's like the ultimate magic word. *starry eyed*
And RS. >.> But that's the last and after that Cher gets to come to my house anyway so that wouldn't really make much of a difference.
*Sigh* Now I'm only left with Physics Assignment...which is like only 2 pages but also AKAed my worst nightmare...or in this case ONE of my worst nightmares. Seniors have died in physics, you know.
I wouldn't be surprised if I joined in the assemblage one day.
I sincerely hope not. =.=
