天理何在?

Today sucked like shit. Good thing the ppl who had stuff on didnt cancel it to go for the practically non existent rehearsal. We went there and 2.30 and waited in the hall like idiots cuz the teachers had no idea what they were doing, and instead of focusing on the performances they decided to focus on the emcees instead. Like hello, the emcees can rehearse anywhere in the school and they have to spend 'rehearsal time' telling getting the emcees to practice?


CO barely played much before they got cut off and asked to stop the rehearsal. but i suspect they were on stage for like an hour, and all because of the emcees. wow. then they get wushu to go next and start scolding us just because we didnt enter the stage when the music started. how on earth do you expect us to enter the stage if there's this endless stream of ppl coming out with instruments? obviously you let them come out before you go in lah =.= and we were scolded for not being prepared cuz of that, despite my attempts to explain it to an LA teacher. common sense?

then they smartly asked the ppl to play the music, let the sec 3s go out and do jitiquan, and told them to restart when they were almost done. wth? and the playing of music was damn screwed. plus some people really dont seem to understand who is in charge of doing what. she kept telling us that the music would play after the curtains were drawn and went on and on cuz some ppl didnt catch it. but seriously, its' go nothing to do with us, cuz our cue is the music, and we obviously wont go out with the curtains drawn.

just when everyone thought we were going to get a proper rehearsal, someone told us to juz do our ending move when emily barely started her tao, meaning that only jitiquan got to do something substantial. and wow thats the end of the damn rehearsal. the reason for only doing the start and end? ITS A TECHNICAL REHEARSAL!

YAH RIGHT. everything changes the moment chinese dance appears. juz because its chen lili doesnt mean she can have her way in everything. while wushu practically couldnt do anything, chinese dance could do the whole damn thing twice during a TECHNICAL REHEARSAL, with chen lili at the side correcting their mistakes, meaning that they were rectifying their moves during a TECHNICAL REHEARSAL. seriously, what the hell.

and so we decided to go up to the wu guan and lian instead. but no, modern dance was using the wu guan. and they refused to budge at all despite the fact that we having a damn performance next week and that they were only using half of the space in the wu guan.

the best part was the one on the rolling up of the di tan. Apparently, we have to roll up the carpet on thursday after wushu, so as to let modern dance have a conducive environment for their oh so wonderful dance practice. and modern dance will not roll the carpet back because they are being kind and doing us a favour! they claim that not rolling up the carpet will make it easier for the cleaners to clean up the carpet, and so by not rolling back the carpet they are ensuring that our wuguan is kept nice and clean! wow, such kind souls. i dont see how cleaning the floor helps keep the carpet clean because the way the cleaners clean the carpet is by vacuuming the TOP of the carpet. not the bottom you idiot.

is it not basic courtesy to put things back in order if you're using someone else's place? and not come up with such ridiculous and senseless excuses to make it seem like whatever it is that you're doing is such a selfless act. to think that came from a teacher. its not just warped reasoning. its total bullshit. how can you say something like that and give such a shameless explanation?

what is wushu? its considered nothing i suppose, from the treatment we got today. everyone wasted 2 hours to do nothing in the hall. everyone was going crazy about the rehearsal cuz we juz got notified yesterday and we actually tried to come. for that worthless thing. after doing nothing on stage, we had to watch chinese dance do their TECHNICAL REHEARSAL by rehearsing their WHOLE performance twice. then we go up to our rightful training area that is also known as the rooftop hall/MULTI PURPOSE hall (when it shouldn't be so) and get chased out, at the same time having to listen to shameless people cover up their actions.

the rehearsal on monday better be a proper one, or else i'll really chop some people up into a million bits cuz we're not going to all that trouble of wearing byf and warming up if we arent even given a chance to rehearse properly.
