Twelveans Unmasked: Before

pictures by ng yew ming.

was it all worth it?

the work started in the morning, i was at school by 9.30. i pasted labels, checked labels, kept admiring the pa system.
i actually didn't do much, but i felt better being there, knowing i was being helpful :)

went home at 12. the contestants were coming at 1, but sigh, i ate a long lunch and it was expensive too. i mean, i knew sang har mee might cost a little more than your average 4.50 coffee shop meal, but i mean, it was 25 bucks! i didn't even know till it came.

but my mom was cool about, cause she said i deserved it. :)

back in school at 2.30, i watched contestants, emcees, and performers do a run through. pn.lucille actually isn't that bad lah, and i watched sue-en go nuts.

and believe me, the weather was insane. i mean, it could have been worse. the anticipation was scary. it was hot, okay good, to dry off the storm that drenched my stage the night before. then a slight drizzle.

i prayed. alot. for it to not rain. i mean, as part of the Dear Jesus, please let this event run smoothly amen. thing.

went off at 4.30, to go home and get dressed. a short nap too. and some food.
i thought i looked the bomb :) and my hair osm :) i looked abit wabbelig in the dress i know, and i don't have the legs to pull off those flat shoes, but i felt comfortable and happy.

came at 6.30, watched the waiters, security, floor management team, and welcoming committee buzz about. they looked fabulous :) and my million thanks to them.

as people were coming in, i got more excited because, well, you don't see stuff like that happen in this school :) and we prepared well for this, for a first-timer, and i hear that its better than some night events held by other schools.

ah. well. :)

tell you more tmr. ;)
