Wut happened yesterday

I came home and while in the middle of whatsapp-ing a certain someone was so tired that I fell asleep on my parents' bed (I love to crash other rooms in the house. Don't ask why. Probably because of a change in environment...). Then i woke up about 40 minutes later, said a quick sorry, took out the mattress (without borthering about pillow and bolster) and fell asleep immediately. And today was a series of intermittent sleep and wakeful moments, so I didn't do very much at all... oops! >.<

Just a thought before I start complaining about what happened yesterday:
I think the world focuses a lot on love. It comes in many forms and is virtually omnipresent: in TV serial dramas, in nearly all genres of movies, in adverts, etc. And of course there's Valentine's Day. And blahblah.
So, yes, love is an integral part of our lives, be they friendships, parent-children relationships, and relationships.
There is, of course, the need for someone to rely on, and to give support to, because this is what binds society together. And perhaps an element of utilitarian practicality derived from our earliest ancestors: that love is necessary for parents to (largely) love their kids such that they would provide for and care for their children until adulthood. Bio O has also taught me that the reason why mothers survive past their childbearing age is to care for their daughters' offspring in case they die early and can't provide that care themselves. And perhaps this also answers the question of just why men tend to be promiscuous- because those with the healthiest, best set of genes naturally ought to reproduce and father more offspring. In short, it's ruvival of the fittest: Darwin's theory of natural selection all over again.
But of course, the human population has evolved beyond that narrow definition of love. Because we are able to think, we are able to extend love beyond that which fellow apes and organisms- think birds bringing back worms to offspring- and turn it into something that is very much part of our everyday lives. Love is, after all, the glue that binds our social fabric together.

Oh well anyway about yesterday.
(wanted to talk lots of crap but I was supposed to bathe and my attention span is running out... besides, I have other stuff to do! ><)
Essentially, Chorale was going over to SOTA for the Singapore International Youth Choral Festival (SIYCF), and we were to be performing two songs: El Hambo and the Earth Song (Google that if you're interested). Basically:
The Raffles Voices (secondary school RI peeps) combined with Chorale.
We were supposed to mix with a Latvian choir.

What happened:
Got ushered around and things were a little too fast at first; the conductor was a little miffed with out substandard performance.
Waited for lunch. The queue was so long that when I got to the food all that was left was fried thin white noodles (I can never remember what they're called) and brocolli and carrot. The meat was all gone.. So I had to eat a vegetarian meal of sorts.
Then we basically changed after that, practiced a little (in an open space, since there was not enough space... there were probably at least 6 choirs, both international and local. ), and then went to place our bags in a holding area. The place was painted black, absolutely black, with colourful orange and red chairs. I thought it was really cool at first, but after a while, the environment started to get a little disorientating. And there wasn't really any instructions to do a dry run, etc, etc.. so the RV guys started playing around, the other choirs took out their phones (I saw a girl playing Temple Run), the guys were talking crap (and so were the girls), and so... I slept. Intermittently, for about 45 minutes. Then I got woken up because they said they were going to do the dry run, but nothing happened after staring around and I got slightly more frustrated, walked around a little, and mostly did nothing...
Then when we went out (FINALLY!), it was for dinner. At 5.30pm. Although there was food everywhere in packets, and I had already taken one (the RV guys were eating already), I had to put it back and wait. When you have to wait for food logistics to be settled even though you had your food and have to give it back when you're really hungry and some wierdos come along and kope the food and one even comes up to the food pile where you're standing and asks you if he can freaking take it... YOU GET MAJORLY PISSED. ARGH. I DUN WANNA TALK ABOUT IT ANYMORE.
....
Then it was back to the holding room. Slept a little more (makes you wonder why on Earth I was still able to sleep so much today). And got my cravat (it's some funny blood-red thing that peeks out of the shirt and is supposed to cover your neck. Personally, i think it makes one look like a red robin!) fixed by a few girls. Including my mortal (if you don't know what who that is too bad :P), CG, and then a few others who said my complexion was good, the cravat looked nice and all. When i currently have a few pimples on my face -.-
Then finally, we went to sing. And then screwed up Earth Song a little. It was okay, but I forgot a few details (oops!!) and we collectively went sharp by a semitone (I thought it was more than that, but if pitch-perfect people say so, then I'll go along with them...)

Then after all that depression it was finally time to go home! I thought it would end later but it didn't. I rushed back to the concert hall, this time as a audience, in time to hear a song by a Finnish choir (they were very, very good) and then prize presentation -.- and then another song by the combined choirs. Then I iitially thought I could finally go home and sleep but no, the guys wanted to eat at Mac's! So i followed them, because between eating cup noodles at home and eating at McDonald's they said Mac's was healthier... So... I got conned. -.-

And the rest was as said above... >.<
