argh. so tired. haven't been sleeping enough for the past 3 nights.... been sleeping at 1 am or later without any naps in between, and running from places to places like a.... like a... like a roadrunner, only without Coyote. argh. and have to wake up early in the mornings for dance. so i'm a little ditzy here and there =( uugh. and now my knees are full of bruises coz of ballet and chinese dance and that time when i fell down. =( so unlucky sia. someone must be cursing me real hard. hahaha.
i luv the chinese new year dance =) a new challenge. it's super cool. the edited version of the dance for open day. ahh... can't wait to be back on stage (even though it's on the teeny weeny hall stage) must work on my turns and my performance quality. hahaha. must work on my turns. cannot fall on stage or i'll ruin the artistry of the dance and thus ruin the good name of chinese dance. gonna pray real hard my knees won't be all blue and black at the end of it all. wonder what stuff the SYF dance gonna do on my poor, ill-fated knees =( anyway, it's time to let go of confining ballet technique and stretch my body and do chinese dancing =D
getting a little tired of ballet technique (especially the arms) now i know how modern dancers feel when they're doing ballet. with mr ferrer and elaine correcting our crazy arms and crazy torsos (they're all over the place and not ballet-ic), i think i'm sort of confined in this box where my limbs and body can only move a certain distance. argh. but still love ballet lessons coz it's so so difficult to do. yeah and i love difficult stuff =) let's see how close to a distinction i can get next year... need to work on my musicality. any musical genius out there willing to offer a free crash course on counting music and all the beats and stuff for a music-idiot dance student?
