Temasek Polytechnic Dance Ensemble
GEM 3: Ignite Your Senses
Was another breakthrough
Months and weeks and days and hours and minutes and seconds spent on trainings were finally put into full practice within the short period of less than two hours on stage.
The time and efforts.
The blood and perspiration.
The laughter and tears.
The joy and sadness.
The exhilarations and disappointments.
The pains and the angst.
The passion and the love.
Everything that had been put into this entire concert had not been put to waste and was all worthwhile. The only glitch is that, it was all over too soon. Now, we can only watch ourselves perform on youtube, look at our pictures, and reminisce all the times we had during trainings, spending every single day with one another, struggling to wake up in the morning, rushing to be on time for rehearsals, struggling to catch the steps quick, getting scolded by Ryan and Gin, getting praised for doing something good, the journeys to TP, 'O' School and home, and so so so much more. These are just some of the memories held dear and close to heart, which makes this concert special in the way it is.
The prayer said by Ryan before the first show on Friday that made us cried
The excitedness we get from seeing audiences that swarmed into Auditorium 1 through the TV at the backstage and trying to spot familiar faces
The nervous-ness and stress we had 5 minutes before the performance
The "am i going to forget my steps" and "what if i fall and screwed up everything"
The last minute revision of dance routines
The butterflies fluttering in our stomaches
The curtain call on the second show, with tears streaming down our faces and the choked "it's finally over" and the warm warm warm warm hugs
The photo-taking sessions after that
I was very sad though...because Janice, Dilys and Vivienne bought the tickets but couldn't make it...and Pigay Gang didn't reply me:(((
