the tamil competition finals at st. gabriels secondary were today. ri steamrollered everyone else. we owned in the comic news thing, the tableau competition (misspelled as tablue by the gabriel ppl :P), and a lot of other stuff. but most important was, of course A CAPELLA, courtesy of yours truly. our ultimate team was shreyas the beatboxer, nishant the vocal dude, rama the tune guy, and me on bass.
of course we won the challenge trophy, but we couldnt really enjoy it. cos the entire tableau team got their handphones, money, and other misc valuble stuff flicked while they were frozen in a pose from a scene in some tamil epic. they were told that it was safe to keep their valubles in the room, but they came back to find that like $2000 worth of stuff was missing. two thousand bucks. really. they had to go to the police station and make complaints and things.
the theives had taken money but left the wallets, taken handphones but left the cases, and thrown away the sim cards or switched off the phones. we went there for an inter school competition... we were among a bunch of teenagers. admittedly most of them had green and blue hair and piercings all over their faces, but how are we supposed to expect such things?
well, looks like we have to be on ou guard everywhere, all the time... i'll be back.
