Simple Joys

I know it's quite trivial, but felt quite honoured to be picked out by Pat for today's senior class. Despite that, I didn't do as well as I could. Still, pretty contented. Among the rest who are picked out are my peers whom I feel are a couple of best dancers in my batch. Also, the seniors never fail to awe me. Crazy musicality, crazy control, crazy movements. Choreo project showcase was yet another eye-opening experience. Also, the new batch of freshies are an insane bunch. Crazily hardworking and passionate. You can just feel it in the air. The thing about dance is, every little thing can inspire you. It touches your very soul. So glad I'm part of this :)

Really need to step out of my comfort zone. My lack of confidence. MUST. IMPROVE.

Incoherent post 'cos I'm really drained after a long day (long week, in fact) but yeah.

A typical uni student has three things to balance. 1) Sleep 2) Studies 3) Social life. & it's said that one can only choose 2 out of the 3.
A uni student who is also a dancer has a fourth worry: 4) Dance
It is definitely taking a toll on me because I am not exactly good at balancing my work. Whilst trying to pull up my grades (I am definitely taking things much more seriously now), I don't wanna give up on dance either. It is really painful.

Dancing is also a burden, as much as I don't want to admit it. It has hard for it not to be, given the situation we're in. This is something that a lot of non-dancers won't ever understand. "Dance so much for what?" "Do you really have no time at all?" "Siao ah dance until so late" "Aiya don't take it so seriously lah". Those are things that I hear from my friends, and sometimes I think of those things myself. But really, I don't think I can ever give up on something this precious, this close to me. I really respect those who can balance between dancing and everything else. I wish I could.

Okay ramblez over.
