oh golly, tonight was such a crazy night. i went to 65 early and we had to try on the make up to see whether it suited our dance that i choreographed. yes i'm an amateur choreographer, and to be honest i'm quite good! so anyways it was a couple of hours before we had to perform and the three of us were rehearsing the entire routine when JoJo came up to us and said we had to be backup dancers for her show. i had an hour to think of a couple of moves for all of us to dance along to and i only managed to come up with 5 which all of us could follow. feeling the pressure building up on me just 2 hours before the whole thing started, my jitters started acting up. i started panicking and started barking orders at everyone, i admit i snapped...quite a bit at people as well. the makeup was done by me and a couple of others. actually i wanted it simple, ghostly to be precise. with liquid foundation on the lips, eye liner and the little red flower on the forehead but people started piling into the toilet and added more and more stuff on our faces, this is the first ever that i had make up on my face and trust me, i think it's gonna be the last.
nervousness has gotten the better of me and i felt really pressured, everyone seemed to be relying on me to dance the best, have the best make up, have the right moves and not screw up since i came up with the whole idea myself, i really really couldnt control it. just right when we were about to start the show, my dancer asked me where he was supposed to stand. i totally gave it to him and i was shouting at him and stuff, i knew i shouldnt and i felt really bad later. anyways after the dance we had to go back in to check the make up since we were sweating like pigs, i honestly (even up to now) can not remember if i made the right moves. then straight after we checked our make up we (me, dicholas, ah hong and chris) had to go out and perform for JoJo's solo as well which was a disaster because one of my friends who was supposed to be in the dance had a door slammed in his face, by me. i didnt mean to and i honestly didnt even know so we all went out and started dancing.
during the middle of it he couldnt stand it anymore, he was feeling dizzy and he cut his lip from the swinging door so he dropped out and then there was three of us. after the whole show i ran back to the toilet area where we had our make up done and i checked on chris, his lip was cut badly and he was feeling faint. me and dicholas quickly removed his make up and then removed ours since we were dripping with sweat and trust me, it wasnt exactly a sight to see. we then had to go out to be thanked by one of the staff from 65, with chris sitting inside the toilet area, i felt really uneasy. so after the whole thing, i ran to my car and changed and ran back to check on him. on my way back i found out that he wasnt at the toilet area so i went back outside to see him sitting in the dicholas' car looking like he was about to pass out.
i was hovering over chris when all the commotion started happening, dicholas threw a tantrum and started yelling at people and chris' best friend Daniel couldnt stand it and started yelling back at him and dicholas got into the car with chris in it and sped off. i didnt get the whole gist of it but i didnt know what to do so i went back inside and started helping out. i came back out to see daniel sobbing and telling us how much he cared for chris and how dicholas is an asshole. there was a few of us which comforted him and sent him on his way. i went back inside the bar only to be greeted by people who told me the show was fantastic and people seem to be asking me if i felt really nervous and excited. i dont know why, but when i asked them if i missed a step, they wouldnt tell me so i'm waiting for the guy who recorded everything to burn a DVD for me to watch it over.
so the whole night was...hectic and to an extent, a disaster. i just hoped the audience enjoyed the dance routine and i'm praying when i get the dvd, that i didnt miss any moves.
