Weekend was...THIS rushed. But eventful~

1) Pre-weekend Friday: Last Latin training @ Tampines before the BIG day....The 19th Lion City IDSF Dancesport Championship held on 26th August. It was so stressful thinking of those Thailand, Indo, and Phillipinos who just have so much energy on the dance floor.....but I guess the pressure did me good. Did alot during that short 1 1/2 hours...nah, the damn superdance shoes were way too soft for my feet....and I sprained my ankle like TWICE? I kept silent abt it though....*now u knoe, my partner!* I am gg to get the International Dance shoes instead, gona cost me another 195....teacher says it provides better support for my feet and better balance too! Then dragged my feet all the way to Civil Service Club for more practice...BAllroom. Cos coincidentally, the KL comp is on 27th lah~ den it was home at abt 11pm, and I had more packing to be done.....COsmetics, Hairdo, gel......Sleeep.

2) Saturday: Woke up at 6am. Praise me please. I never wake up at this weeee hour unless there is a comp. I just feel energetic...or issit stress...cos i gota do my hair. Yes, I took ONE hour to tie my hair that day, with almost ONE whole container of goodlook super hard gel on every inch of my hair, and this Jap brand superhard hairspray. Yes, my head feels like a STONE.
*and btw, this is the day when BABEs and HUNks went for their happiness chalet with ME, without ME! Babe took so many UGLY photos to H.L at me (hao-lian btw...), but oh pls, I am not jealous...i am just..............VERY jealous. Still, happiness MANY me now, nothing can destroy my happiness. Try harder please...*
-continue- den it was competition at Swissotel. 52 couples in all....1st round at 930am. It was like, warming up session, and I felt soo nua3 lah. Spot light blurring my vision, and yaaa...I was blocked by this idiotic couple on the floor. They were literally dancing and POSING between me and shenhong lah! We were dancing ok!!!! And we were at one corner and I was sooo afraid that the judges couldn't see me....so without fail, we got into the next round. 2nd round was perfect. Never did I dance my Rhumba tat well b4. It must be the ppl competing in my Heats lah...so strong. I was very very pressurized...haha. So now i noe. Me dance better with good couples arnd. lalala. Third round...WAS BAD BAD BAD BAD. I blacked out 2 times...for each dance. total? 4 times. I sat there, hating myself. Din even dared to check the score board for the results. Tot that was the end~ Jonathan came telling 'u got in too!!' and I teared!! Thanks for tat chance, really. I did my best in the Semis, but the foreigners were too strong to beat. A lot of pushing and blocking during the semis, but one great achievement: me and shenhong had sooo much 'silent communication' to do on the floor, but we did it! good work, shenhong. Way more to go... Then, it was home for some rest b4 taking the 7 pm bus to KL....zzzzzzzzz

SOo, thanks dear. U picked me up to golden mile, and I was soo touched to see u carrying the BBQ Jack and Jill chips. U never failed to make me smile~ it was so much love...thanks again. No ringgit with me, and U gave me money...which I SPENT on some bubble gum. I got caught btw, at the spore custom. Yes, ppl, say "stupid".... Ok...so reached KL at 1 am. And the CAB DRIVER demanded a 20 ringgit for just a short trip. Ended up...WALKED to hotel. and for ur info...my hair, was.....still stoned. Cos I din wanna re-tie it the next day. sleeepppp till 9am the following day.

3) Sunday: My virgin try for Novice Standard category. DESMOND DID NOT TIE HIS SHOELACE! the music started and...this guy's lace was not tied. I signalled to him, and ya, HE bent down in the middle of the dance floor and tied his laces! nm...we did ok-ly...for waltz. MY loser turn for the next dance. I lifted my legs way too high and stepped on my skirt for Quickstep. I stopped to get that skirt out of my way!!! Den forget here and there...soo 18 couples danced for semis....and I was prepared to be OUT. oh, thanks AGAIN. I was in the finals. ask desmond HOW HAPPY and SURPRISED i was...when we queued for the finals, my teacher PUT ON HIS SPECS and din believe his eyes ok. hahaha. we did extremely well for the finals...

Results: we got 3rd. VERY unexpected seriously. the best thing....I won this couple who is in pre-amp. VERY happy indeed. Maybe the judge cock-eye that day...but nm, thanks for the motivation....results isn't everything, but it was indeed an encouragement. Thanks teacher! I will work harder, and not let u down...

4) today.....a call at 8.59am....and I AM HAPPY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! bye bye K**G
