We were excited by the programme when it was introduced to us by our RE mentor, Mrs De Cruz, a few months back. However, we were indeed a bit concerned about the shift we were allocated. It was a midnight shift and we were a bit surprised when she told us. However, we were still very thrilled by the idea though we had to study for a few tests in the following week.
Armed with snacks and drinks, we met at the NLB foyer. At first, I thought they would be opening an air-conditioned hall for us to read. However, the foyer proved to be a cosy place as well. The wind that caressed our face was rather cooling. After a while, we realised that there would only be the RI book Club and the NLB staff at the venue and we were utterly disappointed. We had expected something more but even so the experience was one that was not to be missed. Each of us spent around 30 minutes reading on stage. Very quickly, very started to grow lethargic and restless. I tried to get some sleep but could not do so.
After 6 hours of reading, we left the library. Reading on stage was certainly an enjoyable experience. I certainly wish we could have more of this experiences.
Cheers,
