SiSTers

Well.......the craziest photos on earth. Kinda ugly, i hate the touch-up. :( These are just one of the few.......quite dissatisfied with the job. Nm.....sisters go!

One more day to my block leave. :)
4 working days + weekend = 6 days
Three more days to the Millenium Comp.
ONE more practice only. :(
Today's practise at Safra is quite good....I tried using less strength, and more fluidity. It seems to work...but I don't know how we look. During the comp, we tend to use TOO much energy and power. *trying to shine* but most of the times, it back-fired, and made us look messy and rough. Hmm......no hard trying another method this time. I hope I remember today's "feel". Keep on trying different ways to dance...I'm sure I'll find the right way soon, don give up if you meet obstacles, or lose out to pple. It just means u haven found the right technique that allows consistency.

Last ballroom comp in June. End of my dance partnership with Desmond. Painful...but I guess it's the best for him, and the best for us. Kind of blame him initially, but after much thought, it's his life choice. I'm glad he is decisive. :)

Sister yee is getting married. The first among the 9 of us.....I wish her happiness. We'll be there for u whenever u need us. We'll make ur wedding a success. Be a pretty bride ok? Hugs.

My First Driving Lesson

After much consideration, I've finally decided to take up driving an auto car. Surveyed and most ppl have forgotten how to drive a manual one, and even if they remember how to, they will choose to drive an auto car. I will most prob take double the time to learn a manual car....and thrice the number of times to pass. HAHAHA......nah I'm exaggerating. Cos, I think I can drive rather well, given it's my first lesson. I was even praised by my instructor. :) thanks to jQ boy, my secret instructor *wink*

Today's lsn is rather boring....just some isolated road, and I keep driving the same route. See the same traffic light again and again, no hump, no people. heee......I almost fell asleep. More to come....wait till I learn to make those 3 point turns / parallel parking, and I'll COMPLAIN. haaa...but, I am confident in myself...I'm sure to be a fast learner, yes yes...Gambate!

Tml's FRIDAY! staying over.....hugs.

*Jen and Jasper, doing the "JIVE"*

I had my first try for the Lain Pre-amateur category with my partner, Shenhong yesterday, at the 7th SGDF Singapore Open Dancesport Championship. I realise that it's going to be 2 years since I first partnered Shenhong in May 2005. Our first competition was the same comp held 2 years back, and we got 2nd for the Beginners' category. I am happy with the progress, and satisfied with the partnership. It's not abt how good both of us dance....it's about how we took care of each other and respect each other. And somehow, I feel that we think alike in dance. It's the security Shenhong gave me during competitions tat matters. Thanks! However, one disappointment we had yesterday was that we did not even get into finals for the Novice category. We only had to do two dances, as compared to Pre-am, where we had to do 3, which Jive was not really polished at all. I held high hopes for Novice, because, I do think we are much better than those in the Novice Finals. And some Novice Finalists even lost to us during the Pre-am round. I couldn't believe this.... So, overall, shld I be happy or not? I am glad to do Finals in Pre-am and I only lost to the Thais...but I am really devastated with the fact that I lost to some really really weak Indo in Novice. :(

Small setback...a little encouragement....I know I can do better with each competition and learn and improve with each mistake. We going one step further in June. We'll be learning from another teacher, to be decided again. :)

Good news....mom sent me an sms telling me daddy can be discharged...but, the professor in charge was on MC! so he din manage to sign on this form, which resulted in Daddy having to stay for 1 more day. :( so I'll see Daddy home again tml......!!! great!

Thanks to my frends. Those that smsed me, and Huijing, who visited my dad. I'm grateful that you cared. :)

I have to thank you, jQ. U were there to send Daddy to the 24hr clinic late at night (though that doc was crap). U were there to accompany me when daddy was suddenly admitted to hospital, and to accompany me when I was at home waiting for mom's news. Thereafter, thanks for accompanying me and my mom to visit daddy, and staying with me for the first few days. I am grateful to have u. :)

Hello~ Been busy, and physically exhausted...and I am left with practically no energy everyday, wanted to upload photos taken during the festive season.

I'm just so tired. Urgh~ Well, daddy was hospitalised due to water retention in his lungs....he's still not discharged yet. Visited him almost every non-dance days. Dance....the one thing on my mind every single minute. Competition on 11th March, and 1st April. Two biggest event of the year, and I'm training real hard for them. DOing Latin this time, with my $1200 costume. I've never been so stressed, guess it's cos not enuff lessons, just last min practices. And I'm afraid of my lack of stamina. I'll do what i can. :)

Work getting rather busy, and stressful. Guess it wasn't so much of the deadline, but something else. I know what that STH is, but I can't find the right words to describe. Endure Endure~~

To those who still remember my presence, friends, I hope to see u pple soon.
