Today was the formal opening of BP.
Finally.
I was pretty hyped about it. BP is getting bigger and naturally they're gonna be earning more money, and that's always a good thing. Hopefully, they can expand even MORE.
Before the event, me, my bro and my friend went down to Songjiang to look for some hats and my bro got a pair of white Chucks. We had Bibimbop at some Korean resturant and it was the bomb diggity shit.
So anyways, we finally got to the place. Since the event was held in one studio, the place was pretty packed. Everyone sat against the walls and formed a circle. The teachers did their solos, and I was having a pretty good time, just basking in the atmosphere.
Then Radish suddenly announces it's my turn to do a solo. I was just WTFing at that moment.
I mean, he didn't tell me beforehand or anything, and I'm not even a teacher. But I didn't wanna be a bad sport, so I had to. It
REALLY wasn't like what I expected. I thought I'd blank out again, like that time in the circle at a LCL session, but I didn't. I
WAS nervous, yeah, but I had control over the shit I was doing. Even though I didn't appreciate it at that moment, I have to thank Radish for giving me the opportunity.
After that there was a non-official battle, which, again, I had to take part in because Radish is random. The judging system is pretty lame(because it's a non-official battle). It was based on how many people liked you, which is pretty stupid, cause if you know what the crowd likes, you win. But Radish was pretty diplomatic about it and called it all a draw. I'm still not happy with the crowd response I got though, I'll have to work on it.
Last thing to write about today. I have new found respect for punking. It is
MAD hard. Way way way harder than it looks. I left the classroom in the middle of the class because I was making myself look like a total idiot. -_________________________-
