its been a super duber long time since i last blogged. busy wif work, sick of it, feel like quitting but cant, busy wif gakkai, had fun, the feeling of being victorious, appreciate all the pple that haf encouraged me, helped me, and pushing me up when im feelin down. In the current phase of life b4 i enlist for army, i truly feel joy, won victories, and gone thru some of the most stressful times of my life. YCF, a great success for our HQ1 show! The show was great, we started to become more united as the last performance came nearer. Got to know more frens, got to see more members grow. Words cant express how i felt tat day. NDP, i had nvr been very close wif my parents, i urge myself to change. But old habits are hard to get rid. but, an opportunity came, its NDP. my parents joined NDP together for the first time and i guess it might be also their last time 2. Anyways, i tried to go down and support them when their trainings were at padang. From then, i started to haf better relationship wif my parents. And today, is National Day, its their BIG DAY! Tat includes Ben too cos hes a trainer in this year's NDP, . Its their big day! All the best for them! Nostalgia, i was being asked to choreograph dance steps for this oldies concert. Its a concert held by SSA, a friendship concert for the adult division members and new friends wif OLDIES as their theme. When i was asked, i oni had around 2 weeks to tink abt whether to take up the role and start choreographing. I was stressed out! I kept on thinking not enough time enough time. then an inspiration came, tat inspiration came frm watch this old movie by john trolvolta, GREASE. But still i did not know where to start frm. So i asked Daniel, frm our dance grp urban passion, to gif me some ideas. And he suggested lindy hop. At first i was ok with the basic steps. Quite easy. But again, i was scared tat pple cant commit, then we dun haf to practice. I was realli down. both leya and dan were trying to comfort me that if i find it too stressful, we can call it of. but in my heart, if i were to let it go, i wun feel good either. Called ben, he kinda woke me up. And i started to choreograph the steps on tat day itself. We had 5 couples for this dance. But last minute, one of the gals has some problems and backed out, started to panick again. Its 3 days to the performance and we still cant find a replacement! But yaya and beckie assured me they will definitely find a replacement. And truly they did, her name's Cynthia aka Ah Cyn lol. Shes frm yaya and fren's dance grp called urbanation. Anyways, i gave her a crash course on friday. And shes able to absorb 60% of it. Realli salute her! On the performance day, our dance stage was small. VERY SMALL! they totally forgot abt us when their arranging the instruments. But in the end, we had to deal wif wat we're given. In the end, the performance turn out great! We had lots of fun, being back drop dancers impromtu! A truly great nite of fun and laughter! Took lots of pics too. Will share wif u guys nxt time. I realli thank all the dancers tat came for practice everyday! YES EVERYDAY! not a single one missed unless they haf other more impt things on! Even though some are down wif flu or cough, they came! Truly touched by them! An ugly caterpillar wraps itself up, and going thru a struggle within itself b4 it emerges out as a beautiful butterfly.
