A Reason to Squee~ ^^

First: I got my baby back on Thursday!
Though it needs a USB dongle now, I'm not complaining, as long as I can go on the internet with it. ^^

Secondly, Lika and I (well, Lika, for the most part anyway.. xD) were to come up with a dance for Seow Hui's sister's wedding.
So on Thursday, we figured that we'd ask Gino for help, seeing as we couldn't really think of an appropriate move (call it dancer's block, if you will) that was suitable for the young kids (as in Xing Wei, Mei Lie, the lot).
Especially since the song chosen was Pussycat Dolls' Sway.

Anyways, Gino came up with simple yet not too boring steps for the dance (and it's not the full song too), so Lika and I tried dancing it, along with coming up with our own steps that we think would work with it.
And this is what we came up with.
Please, ignore the one on the left.



It was.. nice.
Simple and nice. Can't wait to see how the entire dance turns out.

*sniff*

My baby is in the hospital.
Again. T_T

For those of you who don't know, I mean my 'baby' as in my laptop.
It's been giving me problems these days, and just.. Argh, I miss posting.. *___*
I miss being able to post in my air-conditioned room, I miss being able to post regularly, I miss crapping, I just miss.. everything.

I'm now using the computer outside, and I can hardly do much with it other than go online because all my stuff in in my laptop. *cries*

On a lighter note though, I had a lot of fun covering today's event at Kampung Simpai. We sort of went jungle trekking, the original reason being to cover the water & electricity problem of the aborigines there. But heck, it was fun! ^^ Though extremely hot. *_*

Needless to say, I was almost immediately out cold the moment I got home and ate my lunch (It takes about 45 minutes to get from my house to UMP for the meet-up, and almost an hour to Kampung Simpai. And I had to be there by 8am. And I reached home close to 3pm. You do the math. @_@)

But that's what I love about my job. ^^

Annnndddd... I hope I get my laptop back soon. T_T

It's fate, I tell ya.

Anyone Miss Me? xD

No?
Um yeah, thought so. xD

So sorry I haven't been updating lately~!
My latop has been in the 'hospital', so I couldn't actually update since all my files are in my hard drive.. which is with the repair guy.

But not to worry, you didn't miss anything.
Nothing interesting or worth mentioning happened in those weeks, unless you count the hilarity that ensued in the new Grade 5 class.
Which, to be honest, is perfectly normal.
For those kids, anyway. xD

So, shall I leave you to a mini media spam? ^^


Lika asking the new Grade 1 to 'suck in their backside'. In a very un-Ms Chua-ish way. xD


Not bad.. *Nods head*


Their 2nd attempt at Plie. Not bad, actually. xD


Now this is where the mistake starts. xD WRONG.MUSIC. And they still can dance to it. xD Almost died laughing, Lika & I did.


This time, with the right music. But Chrystal still couldn't quite get it right. *Sighs* Mini me is really like me. xD Oh, and ignore the voice. Yup, it's me. =.=


She was posing looking at Lika's phone.




Oh, and one more thing.. Like haaayyyy, I got me our performance footage! n_n

I look SO.OUT OF POPORTION. >__>

Emo Post, HOMG.

What is wrong with this wondering heart?
The same one that used to be so guarded; has now been let down, defenseless.
What remains of the chains that bound - gone, dissolved into the moment.

It is no different,
Yet it differs in so many ways
I know better,
But right now my heart knows..
Nothing.

The distance should be palpable..
A barrier, impossible to cross as wished
But the ignorant me..
The naive, foolish me
Is unable to fathom that fact.

Who am I to question fate?
The cards are laid out in complexity in front of me..
But I can't read it; I don't know how to.

Are you even aware?
The damage is done
The mark permanent, unwavering
Forever bound to the one that was never meant to wish this much.

Can you hear me now?

PDA (Premier Dance Academy)'s Ballet Exam 2009

So yeah, it started off quite early..
I arrived at nearly 10, and when I did, Lika told me that the 2nd exam had already started.
And she told me that the exam supposed to start at 9.30.
It started early, she said, and things were going 'too smoothly'.
But that hardly counted as a bad thing, of course.

I went to the studio armed with my camera.
I was determined to get some good shots of the exam girls, since I rarely had the chance to take a picture of them dressed up to their best and looking presentable.

I did get a few nice group shots (and even one with Gino), and some not-so-subtle Gino-Camwhore moments.

However, the majority of the pictures I ended up taking were either candid, not-so-ballerina-ish poses, or just of us having fun.
So much for presentable group shots.

As with last year, Lika, Tze Ping and I went down to Medan Selera to have lunch during the examiner's lunch break (in which Lika and I had gone to MS earlier to buy some side dishes and rice for the examiner's lunch).
We had Thai food, and it wasn't so bad.
We had fun chatting and catching up with Tze Ping on anything and everything that happened in the exam room - how the students' reaction was, and certain things the examiner said or did.

It was a really long day (even more so for Lika and I as we had to bring examiner Ms (Cathrine/Katherine)Atkinson out for a drink after the exam, to kill time till her flight), but it was fun.

I would post the pictures here myself, but there are too many and it would kill me to upload them all in Blogger, so I've uploaded them in my Photobucket for your viewing pleasure.
Uh, yeah.. Ignore that random emoticon.

KISS - Because I'm A Girl

No, not the rocker-group KISS.
That would be stupid. *points to the title of the song*
But THIS.
SO.FREAKING.SAD. T___T

I hear Thundeerrrr.. Lightning..~!

Because really, it was raining so heavily early this (or should I say, yesterday) evening.
Leaves were flying, and we were getting splashed with sprays of rain although we weren't even out on the road.
Lika and I had come down from the studio because she had wanted to go check her eyesight, and at the same time, Sayaka and Keiko were just about to go back.
From the stairs, it was just a slightly heavy drizzle, but the moment we touched the ground, the rain got so heavy, you'd be crazy to drive in that weather.
It's as though the weather is trying to tell us something.

As we made our way to the far end of the pathway, a bright lightning stroke, all 4 of us flinched, then screamed when a terribly loud thunder sounded.
Poor Keiko had to run to her MPV in the rain, to drive it up as near as possible to the pathway for Sayaka to get in.
Even the Car-Air-Cond auntie took cover with us as one of the customers drove away.

Anyhow, I still love the rain.
No particular reason, other than it makes a really hot day cooler, and being the bloody sweating ox (not really, I'm actually a dragon. ) that I am, I love not sweating.
I'll love it especially more if sweating didn't mean you were burning fat.

Oh, that, and we did pointe work with the Inter girls today.
And taught them Adv 1's pose. =)

*Insert Insane Laughter Here*

Because seriously, that's exactly what today was made up of.
Since Intermediate, Lika has been cracking up, wether she being the cause of it or otherwise.
The major laugh began when Lika brought up my 'feet & foot' issue to anyone who would listen.
Then Chia Hern began by saying stuff like "Your top teeth is called tooth, and your lower teeth is called teeth."
Which I answered, "I have a row of teeths and one row of toothes!"
And trust me, if there were ice beneath our feet, we would have cracked it by then and drowned.
Seriously.
We were all laughing SO.DAMN.HARD.

The laughter this time around was contagious and incurable, because the next thing we knew, we were cracking Inter Found, Grade 2, and Primary up as well.
Poor Sonya, who had a cough, even had to go to the bathroom because she was laughing too much, which in turn made her cough more, and as we found out later, she vomitted.

I can't explain in detail exactly what happened to make us crack up so much today, because even if I did, it would'nt be nearly as funny as witnessing and hearing it for yourselves.
But I'll just mention short recaps of the incidents..:

Lika constantly reminding Chia Hern to 'suck in her butt', as a result of Ms Chua's Technical teaching yesterday.
No one was in a mood to dance (except maybe Ice), so Chia Hern very blatantly told Lika to shaddap.
Then we began talking about our experiences yesterday, to much hilarity.
We (Chia Hern, Lika & I) also practised Ballonnes Composes, seeing as that was the dance that I sat out yesterday.

Then came Inter Found, and we got Jermaine laughing real hard.
Well, Lika, actually.
She seemed to be possessed with the spirit of 'Chia Hoon'.
And she gave us some chewing gum, to which the innocent enough conversation took a corrupted turn courtesy of Lika.
Jermaine remained innocent. She had no idea what kind of 'blow' Lika meant, having only thinking of 'bubble/chewing gum blowing'. xD

After that was Grade 2, and Misaki seemed to catch the 'virus' the moment she stepped in the studio.
Then it 'infected' Michelle too.
And soon the entire class.
Proof? I give you....~
Misaki The Dinosaur.



It's the first time I've seen Misaki & Michelle so playful in class.
And when they did Exercise For Relaxation, Misaki had a puffer fish face. No one knows why.



And just because I think that Michelle's style in holding her skirt during Rythm is nice..



Then there was Primary.
Sonya, Sophia, Miu Yean and Kai Li were giggling throughout class.
And of course you know Sonya's story.
When Lika asked Kai Li and Samantha not to dance so fast like Micheal Schumacher, Sonya burst out laughing.

My cheeks hurt from laughing so much..~


Misaki & Michelle.

Well, That Was A Little Embarrasing.. =.=

So earlier today, Lika arrived at my house earlier than she said she would to fetch me, then Ms Chua, to Starbucks in ECM for our little 'discussion'.
Luckily I got ready early.

So anyways, we went to Vistana and Lika rang Ms Chua, only to find out that she had only just arrived at the bus station.
So we found a parking and waited in the car while chatting a bit, but then Lika said she had to use the WC.

By the time we came out of the toilet and were making our way back to the car, Ms Chua and her friend had just arrived.
So we waited at the hotel lobby while Ms Chua got herself settled in her hotel room.
At Vistana, there was some kind of event going on, and I saw one of my college friends, that chinese guy that took Moral Studies with us back in our second last semester.
Ong something was his name, I think.
We smiled at each other, and he dissapeared in a room and I never saw him again after that. =p

To cut the story short, the discussion with Ms Chua made both Lika and I more relieved, after Ms Chua explained why what happened.
We felt reassured, and it was nice.

Then came the afternoon class.
I arrived at about 4.50 to open the gates in case Chia Hern came early, while Lika went to fetch Ms Chua.

We started at Port De Bras, Chia Hern attempting to catch up as we did the work on the spot.
And I must say, she deserves an applaud for being able to comprehend if even a bit of the work.
We couldn't turn the air cond's tempreture too low - Ms Chua was coughing rather badly, and it was bad enough that she took it as something 'normal'.
So we were pretty much sweating from the early off.
Plus, we weren't allowed to drink water.

And about 1 1/2 hours into it, I could feel myself starting to get dizzy.
My vision was blurring, and try as I may to stand upright and continue dancing, my vision was failing me and I think I would faint or black out if I didn't sit down for a while.
So I apologised to Ms Chua, saying I felt dizzy, and went to the chair to sit.
She said I needed to take more iron.
It was then that Ms Chua finally gave in and let us have a sip of water.
But heck, I had more than a sip.

The dizziness faded away after a while, so I got up and danced again.
After learning a new dance and dancing with the music, the dizziness came back.
It comes and goes, going away when I sit and rest for a while, then coming back again when I've strained myself to catch a step a bit.

It was a rather embarassing sight, really, when Lika and Chia Hern (who is in fact our junior) felt fine.
I later found out that Lika has been secretly fighting the urge to throw up not long after I had my dizzy spells.
Thank goodness that about half an hour before ending, she went through the techniques with us instead of teaching the other 7 dances, so it wasn't so strainful for me.

Maybe my dizzy spells were was also due to the fact that I had just finished my period on today itself, so I guessed my body was rather tired.
But even so, I still think that we should have classes like this more often to train our stamina and to actually get us working once in a while.
It'd be good for us, and God knows it'd be good at improving our technique, which, from what Ms Chua told us, we had a lot to work at.
