The intensive lessons have started. Just calculated, and that makes it easily 5 lessons per week. I don't know if my wallet and brain and body can take it...but it's either do or not do at all.

Wednesday was an eye opener. I was told - the girl's job is to look beautiful. Ah huh...I know. To change her costume and look totally every comp - that means a hole in my wallet. Yes... And more visits to hair salon. Not forgetting the demanding training...being a lady competitive dancer seems to suggest she has to make herself a celebrity. My gosh.

This comment was made - you have to look stunning at every practice...every moment. This is not easy...I am not a born model. Urghs...I shall improve in all these aspects one by one...

But thanks for writing notes for us. Look forward to the next meet.

I almost made the silliest mistake in my life - to quit dancing.

Sunny Low's competition last Sunday was a great event, well organised, with very strong competitors all over the world. I see improvement in every single couple whom I know, and when I say improvement, I really mean significant improvement. For us, yes, slight improvement. Slight is not enough in today's competition, though hard work is must, working smart is key. There are obvious and fatal flaws in our dancing which have been around and now magnified. I have drawn up plans for myself - that is 4 more years of dancing, and that's it, rest and do family planning. :) If there are no obvious results in the next 1 year after executing my intensive training program recently drawn out, I guess I will really quit dancing (for now). But, before that do everything to get there...and then there wont be regrets.

First step taken. Had the first lesson with Mikel and it was truly beneficial. What he taught could potentially put us on the fast track for ballroom...but the rest depends on ourselves. Next - which is today. Hope everything turns out well too. :)

I can't be any clearer on what I want. And, I'm going all out to get it. Yes, I'm a hungry girl. :D
