Hello! MTDC graduation concert was yesterday. And this MTDC 2010-2011 ended yesterday. And this means that there is no MTDC today.
Anyway, about yesterday...
We left school at about 12PM yesterday and the guard with nice eyes didn't want unlock the gate for us because we didn't have an early release form. But after some persuasion, he had to let us out. Walked over to McDonalds for lunch and it was mega tiring with all our big bags and small bags and plastic bags [this applies to Ching only]. Ate lunch while I finished up the cards. We then cabbed to Esplanade cos Ching had her almighty cab charge. Entered the backstage with my section and hung around in the dressing room for awhile. The awhile really only lasted awhile, soon enough, I went to the extra (fancy) dressing room to practice the ensemble piece with my ensemble friendzx. After that, we had rehearsal on stage with the whole band. There were 2 rehearsals, one was just a  technical rehearsal. By 5.30, we were down rehearsing, everyone went down to the green room for dinner. Time ticked on, we were dressed up for the concert. And soon enough we were on stage. Our pieces weren't spectacular, but they were what they were and everyone still enjoyed it :_) Stayed on during the interval to get ready for the ensemble piece.When the interval was over, we waited for our turn to go on stage. It was pretty good to/for me, wasn't as tiring as usual and my sound didn't "zao xia" [Hahaha, JUNE!]. Played our combined pieces after the ensembles were down. The encore piece was way more exciting than the "last piece". Everyone enjoyed it 9863212 times more. At least I did. Overall, the concert was a great one. We all had our share of laughter and for some tears. But thats our graduation concert and its how we graduated :_) Its was a good graduation, I really liked it.
After all the debrief and stuff we were dismissed. Walked out of the stage door feeling like a celebrity because of the line of people around the stage door :_) Naise. Found my friendszx, got my flowers, got my chocolates, got more smiles, took more photos. love love :_)
Well, I'm gonna miss MTDC a little, thats for sure. My Saturday afternoons are gonna seem emptier, thats for sure. And I've learnt much, laughed much, made more friends, that, that and thats' for sure. But it isn't the end of the world. We'll see each other again, kiddies. Its ok :_)
AND I DIDN'T HAVE TIME TO TALK TO CHING AT ALL COS CHING'S A BUSY BIG BABY.
Thank Eric for pretty photos. But I took at least 40% of the photos k!

This is a pretty interesting photo if you look at it hard enough.
