Dead Tired
So yeah, I didn't get to have much of a sleep after my morning class.
And to top it off, I had a plate of watermelons for my so-called lunch and a cup of Milo.
So-called diet.
Well, I'd be regretting it later. >_<
The girl, who was from Alor Akar school (and whom Jermaine knew), was quite pleasant looking, and cute in a way that she's give a sheepish grin if she didn't know something or forgot.
But apparently by the time I came (which was around 3.15 - thanks to Ashley who called me at around 2.47 and woke me up from my slumber, otherwise I think I would have slept through), I had 'missed the good parts'.
But heck, I didn't regret it. Sleep/rest came first. =3
So by the time it was Sharnita and Jermaine's class, I started feeling hungry.
All thanks to my (not-so)'smart' attempt at dieting.
The hunger sort of went away after a while though, maybe it was due to the pitying sight of Jermaine trying her best do do pointe work.
Poor girl tries so hard, her face shows it.
Not long into Grade 3, Tze Ping messaged Lika that she was not coming for class tonight.
So Lika hatched a brilliant idea to make a short trip to Medan Selera during our class to get something to eat, and then dance in place of Tze Ping's class.
Thankfully, Gino agreed to it.
I had Chee Cheong Fun and Lika had Curry Mee, but who originally wanted Mee Soup.
I had a craving for curry earlier, but it changed when I went to Medan.
So after we had our stomachs filled, I felt so.damn.heavy. >_>
Smart move, smartypants. Smart move.
Well Gino made good our promise of dancing during Tze Ping's class, and, in an attempt to 'show off' to Lika's 2 Grade 5 girls, asked us to start from Center Work.
He made us do everything extra, and so by the end of our class, we were pretty much wet with sweat and poofed.
By the middle of Grade 4, all 3 of us (yes, Gino included) could hardly comprehend a word properly anymore (okay, that might just be me).
I felt like a sleepy zombie, or at least one who had drugs injected in.
I came back home, feeling as if my head was floating somewhere above me, and could hardly remember 40% of what I said.
I came to my room, switched on the air conditioning, checked my emails real quick, and plopped off to dreamland.
then I woke up at around 4am, and typed this up.
Yup, my timetable is entirely messed up.

News Alert
Anyways, Lika got her Pre-Primary and Primary New Syllabus' book today, along with the video.
The kids on the page were cute. I spot an azn kid.
Forgive the randomness, I dunno what got into me today.
We taught the Intermediate class the Dance, and Incredible Hulk was being.. Nosy. Nothing new there.
Then come Samantha's class, Lika and I were discussing about the students, e.g How Samantha's gone slightly plump, and how she's grown up from being that small 3 year-old girl that peed in class at one time, to how Loi En is quite a clever girl and was the only one to get the rhythm and counting right, etc.
Then Samantha did the unexpected.
She peed in class again.
We didn't really notice until Sonya exclaimed, " *Points* Samantha! You pee ar??"
Only then did we notice the wet bottom part of her leotard, and the small puddle of liquid beneath her.
Almost the instant Sonya let her thoughts out, everyone else turned, saw, and went "Eeee~!", and almost like opposite sides of a magnet, distanced themselves from the puddle that was gradually flowing.
Thankfully, no one teased Samantha about it after she got herself cleaned up, and Lika had to mop up the mess. xD
We learned new things today too, something about 'Dabing Goldung'(however its' spelled,) and Gino's de cote, but right as we mentioned 'Dabing Goldung', speak of the devil; she arrived.
This seemed to excite Lika, who kept hitting my leg and bursting into laughter.
Um. =.+

Seow Hui's Sister's Wedding Performance
I was supposed to be there at 5.45pm just in case there were students who went early.
Instead, I left the house at about 5.50 something, and by the time I got there, it was almost 6.
But I saw no one downstairs, so I waited in the car for a while.
After all, I didn't want weird stares on me.
When I found out that Lika told the students to be there at 6, I finally came out of the car and saw Suzanne & Iris with their mom, going somewhere.
I called out to them, and brought them upstairs.
It was also then that I found out that the majority of students were already there.
But their mothers were with them, so no worries.
Not long after that, I met the girl, Jess, and she told us all to wait in the 'waiting room'.
Which was freaking hot and stuffy when we first went in, btw.
I pity the girls. They had to wait inside, while I had to wait downstairs in case the other girls came.
But eventually when I finally went up, the fan was on and there was at least more ventilation than before.
So that 'waiting room' was where everyone waited until it came time for the little 'fairies' to accompany the Bride & Groom in.
And after that was done, they had to go back into the changing room-cum-waiting room to change into their 'sexy clothes', as Lika put it.
Then we had to wait till some guy sings 3 songs, which would then be the cue for the girls' Sway dance.
The moment they came onstage, there were cheers and whistles throughout the hall.
Psshhh, perverts. xDD LOL
The girls danced alright, there were mistakes, but meh, no need to make a fuss of it.
After that was their dinner.
They had a special table set up for them, where the food was already prepared on the table, unlike the course dishes everyone else was having.
I was to take care of the lot, because Lika had to go to her own table as well.
I sat next to Agnes, the tiny little chatterbox, so I could supervise her as I attempted (keyword) to eat, myself.
I wound up only having a small bowl of the fried rice with some fried sotong, because I had to help the girls most of the other time (help them take dishes, feed Agnes, help someone else take the food, etc).
The highlight was probably during the 'Yam Seng'.
Heck, our table was the noisiest. xD
Everyone was screaming at the top of their lungs (me excluded, of course) before clicking their glasses together and taking a sip.
That went on for all 3 rounds of 'Yam Seng-ing'.
Needless to say, they had the other tables looking and smiling at their antics.
Much to the chagrin of an embarrassed Lika. xD
Oh, and did I mention, I saw Li Yean there as well. ^^
After everyone had had their fill, we just sat around and chit-chatted and joked about, in addition to taking turns to help bring the kids down when their parents arrived.
Also, Lika & I got 'blessed' with the remaining coloured paper sprinkles by Jo Yee.
Now, for the pictures (yes, again, too many to upload here; it'd probably kill Blogger's photo uploader for uploading more than 5 at a go), go to my Facebook album.
Sorry, you have to have an acc at FB to view it.
As for the video...~
Trusty ol' YouTube. xD

Thursday's Post.
Yes, yet again, I fail. *0*
So here's the gist on what happened on Thursday:
I was supposed to pick Ashley up before I went to class in the evening.
No complains there, as long as I had my share of rest in the afternoon (to replace the energy lost in the morning) before going to class again in the evening.
But right before I was to leave the house, it began raining. Heavily.
Now make no mistake, I love the rain, but I was at a slight...-ah, inconvenience, seeing as how I was wearing my tights, and I wasn't even completely dry from my shower yet.
And I was gonna get wet again.
I wore my raincoat (that my grandfather gave me), and that shielded my top from the rain, but left my tights-cladded legs vulnerable.
Get this: I wore my leotards and tights as usual, the usual shorts, and just the raincoat. Nothing else.
As Lika out it, it was the first time she saw me wear something like that to class.
But for the first time in ballet, I was fucking freezing. (Forgive the profanity.)
So to warm myself up, I did a few warm ups when I had the studio to myself (when Lika sent Gino to the bus station), but just as I was starting to feel warm, Jovian came.
And... (things are about to get dramatic from this point)
We (as in everyone in the studio except Jovian) were 'blessed' with a stunning performance by a young piano prodigy.
I kid you not!
Alas, a performance not by Mozart, but Mozahrt.
Oh, the goosebumps. Oh the suspense!
I shall leave you with the footage of said prodigy playing her piece.
Don't kill me.
Well HAAYYY, have some humour, people! xD
Oh, and one more thing.
One of the many reasons I love my job:
I get to meet celebrities up close and personal.
In this case, Ning Baizura.

I Phail.. Tremendously.
I told myself I'd get it done tonight and hand it in tomorrow morning after class, but now I'm not so sure if I wanna go to the office or follow Lika out to pay (either hers or Gino's) bills.
Simon has been nice enough to me, to not put deadlines as to when to hand in my reports, and here I am lazing around.
I had.. 2 days to finish 2 of them, and 3 freaking days to do the other 4, but did I do even a scrap of it? Noooooo...
*Sigh*
I honestly need a good slap for my laziness.. And a few whackings too, if I'm honest, for not appreciating my kind, though-sometimes-sarcastic boss, whom I should be eternally grateful to for putting up with me.
Argh. You 'Penyakit M', why must thou infest me.. >__>
But I love posting, so I'm gonna try to get this done as quick as I can, and then get to doing my overdued reports.
Or not.
Bah. \(>_<)/
Anyways today, for the first time, I experienced cramps in my thighs, due to not warming up before doing Fouettes and Rotations.
Right as we were about to start class, I received a message from Ashley asking me to fetch her when I'm free.
So I told Gino I'd be back ASAP, and went off to fetch Ashley and send her back home.
By the time I returned to the studio, Sharnita was there and Lika was doing Fouettes & Rotations.
The door to the studio was locked (for some reason), so I had to ask Lika to open it for me.
Happy at the distraction, she stopped dancing, and pranced over to the door to unlock it.
I hurriedly took off my clothes (note that I had my leotards on, you pervs), wore my shoes and went to the barre.
Gino decided to repeat Fouettes again, and so that's the exercise I started with.
No warm-up + Fouettes (working muscles required) = NOT GOOD.
I had to stop dancing and sit down for a good few minutes, it was so painful.
And I hated it.
I wasn't satisfied that I had to miss the beginning of the class, and to top it off, had a cramp which made me 'physically disabled' for a while, to which by then, it was time for the next class already.
But we did Grade 6 work today, so as 'to not make the students bored' from doing the syllabus work every week, or so Gino says.
I guess that sort of makes up for the lack of dancing I did during Advanced 1.
Sort of.
And then later on, I dunno if it's because Gino had his 'medicine', but he was kinda.. Perv-ish, cheeky and in a wholly good mood since Grade 3.
He said some things that will make Grade 1's Exercise For Feet With Rises branded permanently in my head, and then there's something Lika said that puts the combination of Battemend Lend and 'fast Plies' into something so.. disgusting that I'll never get the mental image off of my head. >.<
You know what?
I think I'd better get to doing my reports now.
Before I delay them further. Yikes. >_<

Wedding Performance Rehearsals
So since the video can't be uploaded,here are some pictures. ^^
Edit: I uploaded the video on YouTube, so here it is! ^^
June 25, 2009
@_@
This morning at ballet, we did dance a bit, though not much.
Maybe it's because I've been following Lika around these few days, but I honestly feel poofed by the end of the day.
Like today.
What's worse is that I didn't get much of a sleep when I came back from morning class, (around 15 minutes or less) because.. Ok, because I was on the computer and lost track of time. >_>
Then there was the stupid construction workers next door, who chose around nearly 6pm to about 7pm to do some hardcore drilling on the walls, causing Lika and I a headache and a lasting ringing in our ears by the time they were done.
As if pose turns, pirouettes and pivots weren't enough to get us dizzy already, without the drillings.
Seriously, it was a huge pain in the brain. >_<
Oh, and Lika's 2 Grade 5 girls came today because Gino wanted to see them.
They were pretty good, especially Catherina (Lika, I know I may have misspelled her name. LIVE WITH IT. xD), considering she had no dance background before this, and only started learning in around July last year.
Seow Hui, who discovered my new phone when we went to Mexica restaurant that day, wanted to get a closer look at it during Grade 7's class (whoa, she came! xD).
And Tze Ping heard it too.
So while Hui Hui and Ping Ping were going 'sakai' on my phone (muttering 'waaaaaahhhhhh~!' everytime they discovered something, lol), Tze Ping managed to take this candid shot of Seow Hui and I, which I edited.

So yeah, I'm pretty much exhausted now.
P/S: Oh, and in case you were wondering what the original picture looked like, minus the editing:

A Reason to Squee~ ^^
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*
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
