I Believe

Roar!! The dance was awesome!!! Woohoo!! WE, the dance team, as I so call us, trained for 3 weeks, twice and even trice a week just for the 3 minutes on stage.

Ok.. who is in this 'dance team'?? 5 guys, 6 girls.

1.Nicole Chew
2.Christina jie
3.Maria
4.Cheryl Tan
5. Angelina Ji
6.Me

1.Joash
2.Ian
3.Kelvin Leong
4.John Tan
5.Yimin

OK..Shufen wanted me to do verse 1 ( ballet) with Maria and Cheryl Tan. Both of them are like gymnasts..I stopped ballet in primary school so I was a little shocked cos you noe, Nicole is a good dancer and stuff. But anyway, the ballet was done by us 3 and the rest of the people all like froze at the back while we did this part..The ballet was quite difficult and we practiced very hard, coming back to church in the middle of the week to practice. At the last practice on Saturday4-10 pm, Grace changed everything and taught us some really simple yet graceful steps. thanks gracey!!( ",)
Straight after the ballets, the rest of the girls unfreeze and do a few other steps with kicks and jumps here and there. Poor Nicole always got kicked in the face, either by Cheryl Tan or me during practice..heheh..sorry Nicole..well at least you weren't kicked during the performance..
Then the guys too unfreeze and walk to their positions to start the 1st chorus.
Ian was like positioned beside me. He is a good dancer but puts like too much energy into his dance steps. So because sometimes he comes too close to me, I have to like watch out in case he kicks me or something..haha..
We all move into our next position and start the next verse then interlude then verse then 2nd chorus then cartwheels and frontwalks by Christina jie, me, Cheryl Tan and Maria.
The last bit, was more of basketball moves. Ian was the most excited when we heard the last bit was going to be changed. The girls (except Nicole, who was equally excited) were all oh nos and stuff..The rest of the guys were happier LAH..
Nicole looked a bit pissed when the girls did not want to learn the basketball part but we still learnt it in the end. To think that all these was done on Sat.haha.. All last hour work..ok..Then, after the basketball bit comes the ending pose.

On Sunday, yesterday, my cg went for luch at Seoul Garden. I was still on my diet so I ate mostly salad and drank tea..heehx..Angel Bryan and I then left the cg earlier to take a cab to the cathedral..Had to be there early and practice..The taxi driver was like cheating our money!! He drove around this whole few blocks then after the meter passed 5 bucks plus he then just went.." Ooo!! Bedok cathedral...i take you there.." haha..nvm lah..Angel paid..heehx..Thanks Angel..*smiles*..There, we changed into the pants i didn't really like, and the tiny top of angel's..
we practiced once, stretched..then got ready for the performance..

The performance was like super nice!! Everyone did their best i noe, but i forgot to smile..that and the first cartwheel are the major faults.. If not then not so bad..Thanks to Shufen!! Without you..There would not be the dance in the first place..Thanks for giving me this precious chance to dance..The next dance rite, bryan also wants join..heeh..He finds the dance so super and enjoyed the practices too..haha..

Anyway, the dance is too indescribable to be put into words so please ask me for the video or photos or something..If not, ask me to tell you everything when i next see you!! If you feel confused, forgive me..I'm too excited to write it all down..Hee..All the dancers did very very very well!! Erm..have i said that already??haha..

After the dance, we all sat around for the program and danced again after the program..Quite informal but still fun..At the cartwheel and front walk part, kelvin and john started to walk front..We almost cartwheeled into them..But didn't..Everyone had fun..I want to do the dance again on sat..Now my arm muscles are aching real bad it hurts to type, but i don't care..It will be better in another 2, 3 more days time..

Today, miss Gan made a few girls, including me, stand because i forgot to wear my tie..opps..
we had to like memorise the school song word for word..easy for me so then, punishment at 2 was like playing..haha..

Ok..i need to end here..My arm muscles really is hurting..Couldn't even clap at today's chinese singing competition and stuff..

Dancer,
