SPARKS OF YOUTH 2010

Youth Day Celebrations :)

7 July 2010

Youth Day was great, well at least I left the hall feeling satisfied and happy :)

It was great being behind-the-scenes for ONCE, instead of always being the MC for the occasion. And i bet the audience loved it, because I've been appearing on stage, for like, what, twice in a week? (SUSO and Expresso! presentations)

Of course it was stressful backstage, the fan was always getting hogged and backstage was always crowded with people. Anyone who's been in this position should know I guess...having tripped up quite a number of times during rehearsal the previous day, we were all worried sick about the stage directions and whether everything was going right or not :)

Camwhoring backstage was fun too :) I snapped pictures of the performers from the back curtains, which was (uncharacteristically) daring of me. Oh yeah, and trying to take pictures of the backstage pa crew and certain performers proved, well...futile.

Anyway, Finale was fun I suppose. Cos I wasn't even bothered about how lame/crazy I was looking on stage. For the finale, all the performers and councillors danced to 'You Are The One Singapore.' Yep, THAT song by JJ Lin. It wasn't as bad as it turned out to be, everyone was having fun.

Thank you to everyone who helped and cooperated with the Student Council EXCO for the occasion! Check out the pictures on FB (mine, Benjamin's..)

Love,
