Patron's Day rehearsal..and my love for SMUBE
Last Sunday we all had to come down early in the morning for PD rehearsal...SMUBE was in charge of the Formal segment...I arrived ard 10am, found Jiahui in the studio and both of us head down to Big Steps.
Pict below: This was the Technical Team who came down at 8am...SMUBE is beautiful..becoz we have dedicated members :)
Anyway, Jiahui and me went down to the basement to find mike stands..and we came across this uber funky car in the basement carpark..it's so nice!
Nice right! Jiahui came in a little too fast when I pressed it down..so she became a blur..hahaha
Besides Stage 2 (which was the formal stage at Big Steps), we also have a Stage 1.
Pict below: that's some of the backstage people..Dod pushing the coffin (ok..we call it the coffin)..with JiaHui sitting on top..hahaa..The other guy is Jason Gab.
Dod:" I feel like I m pushing some Shifu!"
Seriously...these r things that I still cannot understand well..ahhahaha
PD was fun..not becoz of the event, but becoz it was spent with SMUBE people...oh yea! and I found out JIAHUI COMES FROM THE SAME PRI SCHOOL AS ME!!!!!! We had a great time tokking bout the 10 cents fishcake with superb chilli sauce, the maths teacher from hell - Mr Preston Tan and how we always nick food to class by putting them in our pockets..hahha..And yesterday while chatting on MSN with her..I found out how similar we were too!...spiritual twins lo..hahahah...the whole conversation was filled with OMG! ...hahahaha...it feels..i dunno..great to find someone who tinks so much like u..we even enjoy walking in the rain! she's the first one i noe who share the same liking as me!
ok...back to SMUBE..haha..honestly glad to have joined this club..it doesn't even feel like a CCA, it's one big family..
SMUBE's AGM (Annual General Meeting) is this coming Tuesday 6th Feb 2007 at SOA Conference Hall at 7.30pm. Light Refreshments will be provided. REMEMBER TO COME WOR! And this day, I will step down as Finance Deputy Director liao...We old birds can sit back and relax..hahaha
So many things I have done with SMUBE...Grand Opening 2006, Patron's Day 2006, the budgeting done during summer 2006, Convocation 2006, Arts Fest 2006 and the latest, Patron's Day 2007..This summer I will be away for Beijing internship, which means I will miss out on a lot of action for all the upcoming events..I still hope..that I will be back in time for my last summer event, Convocation 2007.
The people I have known in SMUBE...whom I have barely known for more than one yr..but strangely I felt vv close to them :) The fact that I joined SMUBE (which was previously known as Backstage and Emceeing, and now Broadcast and Entertainment) prior to yr 1 was a fact known to little number of people. I was sick of being a performer, I wanted a different lifestyle. So I wrote an email to Ewan and I joined their ITP in 2004. I remembered it was in this small, clean room in Raffles Building and I remembered she told me...the first president of SMUBE, Eng Song Hao, mops the floor himself..ahhahaa..all it felt was like yesterday..
I was in Samba as well that time becoz they wanted percussionist, esp trained ones..so I was juggling 2 CCAs that time..I couldn't handle both..and I remembered Ewan msging me often, asking why I missed SMUBE's trainings...in order to be fair to both CCAs, i dropped both in Year 1 Sem 2.
In yr 2, I volunteered to be a student helper in Grand Opening 2006. As if a twist of fate, I was posted to Backstage, where I gotta know current SMUBE president, Jeremy Soh, Wanida, Gayle, Kristin, Sylvia...I remembered when Grand Opening was coming to an end, Wanida asked me if I wanted to come back to SMUBE. I said "YES!" almost immediately. And then she asked if I wanted to help out with Patron's Day 2006. I nodded and the next thing I know was, I was given the post of Sound Console Manager. I knew nothing back then, but I was glad for the chance. Jinfu was a great help. I learnt much through out that event and I am really happy I could contribute. Wanida was a big key I went back to SMUBE..I remembered how she forwarded all SMUBE emails to me, inviting me to their Lau Yu Sheng session and their AGM last yr...it was that..that brought me back to SMUBE.
I am thankful for that..really..if it wasn;t for her, I wouldn't have a wonderful year 2 and year 3. All the friends I made in SMUBE, all the experiences offered...it's really smth I know I won't get anywhere else..
SMUBE, I love u! and I noe SMUBE love me too!
