11/02 - Slept through the whole night in the hall. Wasn't too bad actually, though some others complained that it was very cold. Woke up only once throughout the whole night. Had buffet breakfast in the canteen again after cleaning up and we were off for our activities again.
First up was station games again. Hmm... but Jia Hui went with us this time and I felt it wasn't as high as before. Anyways, point is, we still had lots of fun. Alan and I didn't spend all the time with the class though. After lunch I think, we had to go off to join the other BABYLONians who were performing for the Finale Night.
We started practising from about 2.00 and as most of us still could not get the dance steps, we requested to skip all the other activities thoughout the afternoon. Heh, very devoted huh? So we basically practised all the way to 6.00, which was the time to gather in the hall for Finale Night.
Even as we were preparing to go on stage, I had doubts about the performance being a good one. So many of us still were not familiar with the dance steps as more and more different and complicated steps kept on being introduced while we were practising, even before we had perfected the ones before. Therefore, I wasn't very optimistic about the performance.
We were told to change into the Orientation T-shirt and the school's black pants, which I didn't have, so I wore my track pants which was much too long. So I didn't wear shoes, lol. Before I knew it, we were due for the performance.
To my surprise, the performance turned out to be not so bad after all. Not that we remembered the dance steps but the feeling of being back on stage performing was really great. Much of the dance I was looking at the others for directions on what to do and how to do the dance steps. However, although the whole dance was quite messy I felt, the ending was done perfectly, and it was the one thing which made us stand out above the rest. We formed a human triangle at the last beat. Lols that one was cool. Anyways, it usually is the last bit of a performance that leaves an impression in the audience so I don't think the audience quite remember or even noticed the messy dance. All in all, it was really fun and I am glad that I volunteered for this performance.
