finally i went to the temple at pasir ris to have the first drama workshop.
saw quite a number of people, of different ages, staying in different parts of singapore, from different walks of life. i totally respect the people who stay at woodlands and yio chu kang. travelling to and fro between their house and the temple is NO JOKE.
today i was amazed because the people are very professional. they really treat the drama workshop very seriously, and put in their best during showcase time. there was this uncle with a big pot belly who looked so ordinary, but once he was in his role (a triad chief), he was like WOWWWWW. i am humbled.
and then a 小插曲 happened. my role was a conman who was to con women to buy a magic stone to make them look good. initially my group already had 4 ladies for me to con, but the director want more ladies to be involved, so the director said:"来我找多几个女孩子给你骗。"
and because of my job as an educator and as a loving fiance to my fiancee, these words really did not strike well with me and i gave her a wassup look.
she noticed it and said to me:"你干嘛啊?!"
to be honest i was also a bit shocked by her reaction but thinking that she might have felt that i was rude, so i changed my wassup look to a pleasant look.
i just want to clarify that i really did not mean to be rude and i respect her as a director. *感恩*
