I think I can UGH for a million times already. Labels: drama
I went to Hwa Chong Institution today again with the drama members. No, we were not bumping in, we went there to watch the SYF practice of CHIJ (Toa Payoh) Girls School.
To tell you truthfully, their play was so much better than our school. Their articulation are wonderful, their acting are superb and the play was so funny yet so touching. We watched the play 2 times, and I cried two times.
If we had all the time in the world, prolly a year or two, maybe our articulation can match up to theirs. Sze Siong was telling me that our background are totally different and thus, we speak differently. But come on, we are all humans. It's not like as if they don't eat and we do, it's not like as if they are born with good English and we don't. At some point of the play, I can still hear the typical Singlish pronunciation. So they are not exactly perfect.
I think it's the whole lah-lah thing that would probably drag our play down, maybe not even securing a Silver. Our acting are good enough, just put more personality to the characters.
I wont be surprise if our school don't get what we wished for. After all, it's not that we don't put in effort. It's just that we needed to put in a little more effort that the other schools do.
Counting down: 4 more days to SYF competition.
UGH.
