Rehearsals

Rehearsals, for me, were the hardest part of the play. Every time we had our play practices, I am tasked to help our director to facilitate our actresses and production crew. Our director was having a major role on our play so she cannot concentrate on her responsibilities. As her assistant, I am in-charge of whatever the thing she cannot cope up with. So all the dilemmas of our actresses and production crew are consulted to me. At first, I wasn't really sure if I can do these things; be a leader, consultant, and a coach. In our class, I am the not-so-serious-one type of person. I go for stupidity and when it comes to exams, "Survival" is the word for me. I didn't expect these kinds of responsibilities relied on a clumsy Justine. But I surprised myself, I felt conscientious not only to myself anymore but now, to my whole class. I felt like being liable of what will be the class' outcome on our play fest.

Being in-charged facilitator of year two Saint Anne is hard. You have to scream your throat out so that everyone will listen to you. I remember one time I almost passed out after a tiring rehearsal.

But all of these are worthy if you'll see the outcome of your sacrifices. It feels great to work hard for something and you'll be given an award for doing so.
