So let me start first, so that i dun have to wreck my brains later. brain cells are a rare commodity i hardly have enough to spare these days.
A timeless classic: the story of 6 spastic frens taking part in chinese skit competition when.... THEIR CHINESE SUX. wth, all because two of them were the chinese reps.
In our defence, we did have an acceptable script. But the saddest thing was, we lacked the acting to pull it off!
that, regardless how many times we practiced in class or after sch at ying's place. regardless the fact that we brought out her stuffed toys to be our audience so that we dont feel weird on stage. regardless the fact that we practiced with sound effects as well.
everything just went so wrong on stage.
but lemme recap the script, in case some of us have chosen to forget it:
There is this spoilt girl - Qian Duo Duo (wad was her english name again? played by juan), who had two close friends who were only interested in her money (that was played by laysh and i, we drew lots rite?). on the goodside, we have this other poor girl (damn it! we ALL forgot the name! played by pearl) and her two good friends (by ying and angela).
Yeah... so... laysh and i were like minions selling our souls to the devil. we were throwing money into the faces of ying and angela and oh boy, didnt that feel good. HAHAHA. and when the poor girl and spoilt girl ran into each other while shopping, they started to fight... over some clothes.
and so we tried to be smart and added sound effects. tacotta and fugue in d minor, i think. wad was spastic was the fact that laysh and i were supposed to cheer qian duoduo on while she fought and on the other hand, ying and angela had to cheer 'bu yao da le... bu yao da le..'. it wasnt all that bad initially, until we realised the music wouldnt stop playing and so the two of them had to keep on fighting.
it was pathetic because they were both runing out of moves and pearl shot us this 'why isnt the music stopping?' kind of look. all these while laysh and i were faithfully cheering, although that consisted of listless hand movements. but when i saw that look on pearl's face, that was it man. i couldnt tahan anymore and i just burst out laughing on stage. it was so bad i had to squat down to laugh for a while.
andden dunno y everyone started laughing also so yah.... it ended really really horribly. premature death, even.
i could have sworn that all of us just died of embarassment then and there. the other groups were so serious, they all acted well and there we were... like jokers clowning around. worst of all, it wasnt funny to anyone else except ourselves. i think we walked around with our heads bowed for the next two weeks.
forgive me, you girls are great, but you're also the last people i'd ever wanna work with for a stage production ever again! HAHAA.. not that we should ever get ourselves involved in one again. anyhow, it was a fun experience! i still think sec 2 life wouldnt have been so enjoyable without these stupid moments! cheerios!
