Just as module bidding was getting off my nerves, tutorial balloting incurred my wrath 2 days ago when it simply refused to allocate slots to me. I had tried to compromise with the brainless system by forgoing the chance to join Jiahui for her NM tutorials and concentrating on balloting for SSD and MKT as my first few choices, and the system had to kill this supposedly foolproof method. Argh.
Welcome Tea Session 1 was messed up by shrieking feedback from the speakers, but the sound engineering crew managed to pull it off by reacting quickly to stubborn Physics. We played to a full house (with more loitering outside the venue), and managed to convince at least half of them to put their names down. While I had a really bad panic attack before the performance and halfway through it (due to the horrid feedback), just watching everyone in the audience listening so intently to us subdued me a little. And this was what I had always been striving to achieve: people who would just listen to me. Isn't this what Geyao is about? I had loved the band, especially our band for our song, because I felt like I could finally interact with the band, and allow myself to bring the song's emotions up and down simply with the execution style.
And I had to meet this absolutely rude freshie after the Welcome Tea(I shall not try to be biased by mentioning the nationality), who simply refused to listen to what I was saying, and was babbling on and on with his question to my junior, who was struggling to comprehend him and answer his question. Hello?! WTF?! If it isn't an ego problem, then it must have been the fact that you don't respect me as a speaker. WTF. If I ever see him in Geyao, I'll be sure to give him hell, simply because he had been such an arrogant bastard.
