Training at HQ

Yesterday had Sunflower training cum rehearsal at HQ at 7.30pm.

Only knock off at 5.45pm but had to travel from the west to the east and the journey would take like around 1.75 hour without much waiting time. So it could mean that travelling time could take up to 2 hours. That is so crazy.

Well, if I go out at 5.45pm, I'm sure I'll be pretty late. So I went off around 5.25pm. By the time I reach my destination after 3 transfers and without much waiting time, it was already slightly past 7.15pm. So, I'm still early but had not had dinner.

While waiting for the final bus, saw a friend, Meiying. She just knock off and was waiting for bus to go home. As we were queueing for our buses in the bus interchange, we did not managed to chat with each other. But we exchanged a few smses.

I bumped into 2 of my friends on the bus (the final transfer) and they had not eaten yet too. They are meeting the rest to have dinner together so I had my dinner with them. I thought I would be late so I bought an extra burger during lunch and I ate it there. It was already cold but it's ok.

By the time we got ready and went up to the hall, they had already finished their gongyo. At first I thought there will be other groups but that day a friend or 2 said it's only our group so I was kind of surprised to see so many people around.

In the end, we did not have much time to try on the stage. We just had a short warm-up session lead by Winnie, followed by a mark through of positioning for Winnie's group and a trial run for Winnie's group. And following that was my group's mark-through of position and a trail run and they manage to allow us to make a quick mark through of position again.

So after that, we can only find spots to had our brush-up training as we had to pass the stage to the other groups.

Initially, all the place had no air-con or maybe not all the air-con had been switch on plus all of us was so hot after the run-through. But eventually, the air-con were switched on. Felt so much better then.

My left leg almost cramp when we were asked to stay at a particular pose. A ballet pose which we had to balance on our right leg (which is bended) while pointing our left leg out and our arms are suppose to be parallel to our left leg.

Anyway, we were released at 9.35pm and I called my dad to check if he's coming to drive me back or I'll go back on my own. He said that he was still in office just wanting to come out and that he would only reach around 10pm.

At that time, a leader gave us some encouragement so I told my dad that I would call back. Also, I took that time to check with Elvee on how she is going back. If she is taking cab, I'll take with her but she wasn't. She said a friend is driving her back. So I sms my dad to say that I would wait for him. After the leader had given us words of encouragement, Elvee was asking around if anyone want to go back with her. Those 顺路 one. Then Lynn told her that I could go back with her.

She said she thought that my dad is coming so I said that my dad is still in office. She immediately told me to follow her. So I called and tell my dad to go home straight.

In a way, I'm glad I followed Elvee. If I wait for my dad who will only reach around 10+pm, I'll reach home around 11pm as he would go to Singapore Post to open the company's letter box before he go home. As I followed Elvee, I reached home around 10.15pm. So much faster and I could have my shower earlier and my hair could get dry earlier also.

Last week, I went for training at SYC and reach home aournd 11pm and I only manage to went to bed around 1am (my hair was more or less dry then). Yesterday, around slightly past 12am, my eyes just could not stay open and as my hair was almost dry then, I can went to sleep earlier.

Now, I'm still feeling very tired. REally not enough sleep... *yawned* but I got to stay awake as I still have to come to work...
