When you're sitting and grinning to yourself and thinking "It's over! It's bloody over!" at 3 am in the morning... it starts to feel slightly unnerving.

Maskerade has just ended a spectacular 4 day run that saw immovable walls, Granny Weatherwax tumbling over the black boxes in the dark, unsynchronised squeaks by the death of rats, falling bats, flowers and an innoucuous teddy bear and our best show stopper - the fire alarm that went off in the middle of the smoke scene with the techies yelling "Too much smoke! Stop spraying the f**king smoke!" and eventually evacuating everyone from the building. All cast members unanimously agree that the fire alarm night will go down in drama soc history as the best delivery ever!

Maskerade's success however has absolutely no connection to why I'm still awake and chirpy at 3am. Maybe it was the ridiculous girl on girl table football match (where the ball careened ever so gently across the table), maybe it was the crazy fencing match where we once again watched Amar getting his ass whacked by Jaq (that's Jaqueline, mind you!) or maybe it was the silly sing-song sessions where we watched Alex regress towards his childhood years and discovered his preoccupation with "Polly put the kettle on".

We're all MAD I tell you, MAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAAAD.....

*ahem*
