Mood: soppy Fact of the day:The Pink Triangle was used as a symbol in the GLBT communities because it was used by the Nazis to identify gays in concentration camps in World War Two. event of the week Opening night for the opera is tonight.
I'm so pathetic, feeling so soppy and all. Maybe it's the weather, maybe because I'm seeing too many lovey-dovey couples parading in front of me.
My direct supervisor for the opera is this really sweet girl called Crystal and her boyfriend is the technical director for the show. Yesterday, the brake on her flyer was faulty and the whole flyer flew upwards. In panic, she tried to grab the rope to stop the flyer, and in the end, after we managed to pull the flyer down and all, she realised that her palm had a few cuts. It was just so sweet, seeing her boyfriend looking after her, holding her hand, helping her put on the plaster and so on. The guy was just this rather rugged looking guy, all t-shirt and jeans and careless looking, but the look on his face as he inspected Crystal's palm was just so gentle and loving. Sigh...
I've been talking to Shaun about things like our fantasies about future houses and the things we used to do with our ex, and it's further stimulated my soppiness. I used to talk to ws about the house I wanted to have too. We had everything all planned out - the kind of lighting, the colour of the cushions, the size of the TV and so on. I can't help but think back on those days and sigh. I mean, I won't regret breaking up, because I know I'm not the girl he needs. But it's just fun getting all swoon-y about the sweet things he used to do for me. haha...
And I wonder if this whole soppy mood has brought me new perspectives. I suddenly noticed my other supervisor, Dave, who's the scenery manager. He really reminds me of this senior in huang cheng that I used to have a crush on. And of course, once again, all those memories came rushing back again. Not too cute, but confident with a careless air, responsible and humourous...thank god I won't be working on this opera anymore after next week, or I'll definitely really have a crush on Dave. Heh.
Anyway, I wonder how I have time to think about all these, when I'm really just swarmed with homework and all. I think it's all because of the semi-darkness environment during rehearsals. Can't help but just think....and smile....
