it is time, where both our nervousness and our giddiness is at its peak: THE D-DAY (also, reflection)

note: it is the 4th of december. no questions.

TODAY WAS OUR PERFORMANCE. WE DID IT. WE GOT ON STAGE AND ACTUALLY PERFORMED. let's take a deep breath together, because it was a long and hard journey, but we. did. it. and that's amazing. I AM SO PROUD. i really do feel like i'm a proud mom.

things that happened:
  • THE PERFORMANCES!!!!! the introduction, the songs, they hey judes and superstitions and thrillers sung out of our mouths. it was exhilarating, really. i am so amazed, even though there are a few things that i'm quite errr about - but still.
  • THE AUDIENCE. one word: thank you. you're the best. AND ALSO YOUR bagus bangets (that means so amazing in indonesian). thank you.
things that went good:
  • SINGING!!! HEY JUDE WAS AMAZING!!!!! SUPERSTITION TOO!!!! in my standarads (probably low, but this is really subjective), they were amazing.
  • JUST BASICALLY ALMOST EVERYTHING!!!!
things that went bad and needs improvement:
  • energy for thriller :((( I WAS SO SAD I WANTED TO DANCE. but peer pressure. but. there is this one funny story of me and rifa sort of awkwardly going off-beat and trying to fix ourselves though!
  • a few parts in the music.
but to be honest, overall, it was both an amazing performance and amazing experience. i loved working with the creative cycle group. i honestly do. thank you so much for this amazing semester, ibu megan and all of the other students!

141203 update (well, later, but)

note: let us pretend that the date is the 3rd of december and rewind. be careful, it's going to be an awesome ride of roller coaster (well, for me, but - yeah, never mind).

WE ARE AMAZING IN OUR REHEARSAL TODAY!!!! an actual rehearsal in the theater building! i am super stoked about the performance for tomorrow, and i'm sure the rest of the class is, too. the energy was wow and i can't wait to have fun in the performance tomorrow! yay!
  • hey jude: perfect.
  • superstition: perfect.
  • thriller: almost perfect. in my opinion.
i am maybe a little bit biased, but as you can see, i am SO SO SO SO SO SO SO happy for tomorrow!
