NDP 2007

Friday, August 10th, 2007

And finally it has ended….

I was worried that I wouldn’t be able to make it that day for NDP… I had lost my voice on Wednesday and still had that husky "sexylicious" voice when I woke up on Thursday…even abit feverish as well. I could feel all the symptoms of a cold creeping in; giddiness, running nose..headaches..

Nonono…I told myself that I wasn’t going to just watch others perform…I will get there and perform with everyone… I will not fall sick until the end of it.

You know, the typical mind-over-body thing… and also, I was wishing that the adrenaline rush would kick in, give me a good high, and enable me to perform until the very end.

Well, it worked. Helped that I chanted as well ;)

Some of the photos we took. More to upload if I could :)

SINGA CITY H2!

Along the way I lost things dear to me, I fell hard with the obstacles on the way, even up till the last moment I was sick and was thinking of whether to perform or not (my legs felt like jelly the entire day) but still, no regrets.

It was really fun, (although I have the habit of complaining and being sarcarstic, very sorry for that) and I made great friends. And we are the pioneer batches to perform on the world’s largest floating platform! What else is there to complain about?

Now my saturdays are empty. Someone save me. lol!

It’s gonna be raining fireworks this August 9th!

Yes yes yes yes yes yes…get ready to be spellbounded by the fireworks @ Marina Bay this year!

But apart from visual effects (which are eff-ing stunning, i can assure you that), what I really wish is that people will take more notice of the performers. Yes, us.

We have taken so many months of preparation, way ahead of time as compared to previous NDPs so that we can present to you the most spectacular parade on the floating platform (which doesn’t feel float-ish, by the way.) And as much as everyone is talking about effects, I wish more would pay attention to the performances.

I’m guilty of only looking forward to the effects and fireworks myself whenever I watch NDPs the previous years. But after this year’s NDP, I think I would pay more attention to the performers as well.

Most of us volunteered to perform, and in turn, have in one way or another, sacrificed a little bit of something along the way. We had to drag ourselves to trainings no matter how far the locations were..we try to head there no matter how dampened our spirits may had been for that particular day of training..

Of course, we all turn out happy in the end. We finally learnt how to get to those ulu places if we are to ever have trainings at such places again.. we make new friends as we perspire and train together..we share our stories with each other..

And no matter how sad or discouraged you may be that day, you soon realize you actually really shouldn’t be crying, as everyone around will encourage you, and you have no time and no room for tears while running around like a madman trying to find your positions and perfecting your dance steps all at the same time.

We went through alot to get to where we are today. We are ordinary people leading normal lives. But just for this day, we become performers. Just for you.

If stripped bare of the frills, the water and laser and fire effects, the lightings, the fireworks, will you still watch the performance? Will you still watch OUR performance?

So while you anticipate the fireworks, please, try to watch us as that day is our day too.

Happy National Day.
