spotlights

one week to opening night! can't believe we've actually made it through all those months of rehearsals already.. it wasn't too long ago when we were gaping awestruck at the killer rehearsal schedule and sitting in the rehearsal room trying to remember the melodies and lyrics.. or when we were sitting around outside the audition room waiting for our turns.. in no time it will all be over and we'll be wondering what we ever did with our lives after office hours :-D

will there be life after Broken Bridges?

there's SongFest and Xmas stuff with The Phil which i hope to still have the time and stamina to join in by then (family members who haven't seen me much in recent months may start to forget that i exist!). i can probably also get back to watching some shows (especially the ones that are up for judging, before the organising people of the awards start shooting me dirty looks, haha). and to get back to leisurely late breakfasts on weekends without having to worry about whether my digestive system would revolt later on during the warm-ups.

BUT OF COURSE, there's the Ipoh run of Broken Bridges which i can hopefully join depending on the rehearsal schedule! who knows, perhaps somebody will want us up in Penang too (and all our lines will have to be Hokkien-ified ... I can see it already ... "Rule Number 2! Always look down! Pai-seh a bit...")

anyway, for now, am glad for tomorrow's day off. the huge mouth ulcer that has been maiming me for the past four days can finally take a break!

in other news, heathrow airport is in chaos after security measures were put in place resulting from the revelation of a (foiled) terror plot. disturbing. sometimes things are more disconcerting when you think of what *could* have happened rather than what actually happened. (like the incident last year that could possibly been an attempt by road bullies to get me out of my car) anyway, a friend is due to fly back from london within the next few days, and another is due to fly there tomorrow. wonder how their travel plans would be affected.
