ok, shouldnt have done that.
today found me at NYP for a backstage stint as Stage Manager for a dance. god i miss the theatre. i find it hard to put in words the kind of emotion that runs through me. a hint of melancholy, maybe a bit of relief and a whole lot of worrying.
i should start off by explaining...sorry, confessing, that i have not gone to school in quite some time. i think i have skipped at least the past 5 days of school. yeah sure i do my work at home but my attendance is starting to worry me. i will, from this day on, undertake the mission of school with the utmost diligence. being in the theatre has made me realize my true love for theatre. i mean, i've always been the dancer. always been the one in the spotlight and being the face of theatre. but today, i see the theatre in a whole different light and it surprises me that i actually like it. being backstage for awhile. being the brain and heart of the place. and suddenly the seriousness of skipping school dawned upon me.
i have been traveling aimlessly and my aimlessness has brought me full circle.
i enlist NYP only to leave that place for Lasalle. and now that i am in Lasalle i skip school to be back in NYP which in turn makes me realise my love for Lasalle. how ironic. but i have gone full circle on this and it's about time i make something out of my life for no one else but myself.
it was very reminiscent too for me as i walked down the long hallways of Nanyang Polytechnic. i remember so clearly how the days were for me back in nyp. lost, scared, unhappy, love life in a mess, family in a jumble, mother in a bitchfit, and having to hide my relationship with adrian. well, those were the days. as i walk back to nyp i find it very funny. nothing has changed in me walking back, yet at the same time everything is different. i finally understand what they mean by that. cliched as it sounds. im in a whole different place and a whole different mindset.
but on a brighter note, i have happily managed to keep to at least ONE resolution for my blog-to blog happy things. and happy things it shall be. i have half a mind to blog about all the things i am grateful for in my life because that is currently how im feeling but that will be another post for another time, hopefully tomorrow, if work doesn't take over. for now, i am going to raid my kitchen fridge and find something to eat.
new post coming up on my food blog :)
