The orchestra members during rehearsal.
KRS members being briefed on what to do later during the concert.
Judging from Chris's funny expression, he is VERY nervous.
KRS members (including me) were asked to clean the hall and remove any rubbish/obstacles/etc etc that would obstruct the concert's progress while the orchestra rehearsed. In the later part of the day (around 4pm+), How Ming and I followed Pn. Yeap Siew Hong to pick up some bouquet of flowers from the florist shop in the nearby market. And boy are they expensive.

Before 7pm, we had our dinner - chicken rice/duck rice. By 7pm, we were busy doing our duties. The orchestra members were having some last minute warm ups and practices at backstage/basketball court while KRS members were busy arranging chairs/mics and guiding guests from the front gate to the hall where the event was being held.
By 8.15pm, the headmaster + VIPs arrived and the concert was officially started. Of course, not missing the speeches and the officiating ceremony blabla. Christopher and Hao Ming had their own solos of the chinese flute and pi-pa respectively. They performed quite well, but kept telling me that they made a lot of mistakes =.= zzz.
The concert ended at around 10.20pm+. Then there were some photography sessios. AND AFTER THAT, we had to move the 400+ chairs back into the basement. Lucky there were alot of volunteers, and we managed to finish the job in around 30 minutes.
I took a shot from backstage. This was when Hao Chin was giving her speech.
When the concert started, the lights at the back were switched off.

It was then decided later to have a drink for the night. Although it was 11pm+ the shop was fully packed, but we managed to grab a table and some chairs for 10 of us. They even provided chinese chess and cards for us to play. I'll say, the drinks there are just magnificient. And guess how much the bill is at the end (refer to picture below).
At the cafe.
HOHO! Check out the pretty number.
By the time we finished our drinks and chit chat, it was almost 12.40am. Most of us squeezed into Andrew's car so he could send us home. First he went to ah Bong's house, then Nick's, then mine. It was 1.05am by the time I reached home. I immediately took a shower, dried my hair, and went to sleep. It was fun, but tiring.
