a ballerina's life

A ballerina's life is very short.
A ballerina's life is very demanding and straining.
A ballerina's life can be lonely.
A ballerina's life means a lot of sacrifices.
A ballerina's life have lots of ups and downs.
A ballerina's life is not easy.

Think of it this way, a good thing may be a bad thing in disguise. Sometimes, we can't always have what we want. We dance because of your passion and dream, not for anybody else. Don't let other things stand in your way.

Just living this passion, keeps me alive everyday.

Crap. I forgot I'm going to malaysia tmr for a short trip. I don't wanna go cuz my homework's not entirely done. English 1200-1500 words compo (!!!!).. Chinese I hope to clear today.

Vivian, lynette, dawn, angela, joey, sam, some juniors and some seniors. They cleared backstage so I wasn't late for my part.

HAD FUN YESTERDAY! TM with interfounds :D

Pizza hut and 1/2 of us ate beef lasagne. Hee. Belle, here comes your PRETTY *coughs* face that I promised. See, I keep promises.

But first sneak preview of pet society on facebook. I forgot who this is le, but the left side is MY pet, Fluffie, sleeping. So cute right? I know :D

PEI RONG u better add me hee hee!

CAMWHORE xD

Notice cheryl's face :O

Cross section of the cake, still nice and squarish! Blackforest, yummy yum.

Belle still very happy cutting her cake, everything is still peaceful. Notice pei rong and cheryl's hand. We can still see you, you know :D

Still peaceful, nice smile people [: Oh and btw cheryl and pei rong were fighting to take picture.

We are planning something now, hee hee pei rong face so red.

Cheeky pei rong. Our plan succeeded belle's face got cake :D Actually, michelle and I planned it hee hee.. But pei rong did it. Notice belle is "enjoying" herself, haha. Glad u enjoyed it.

Facial for you belle, cake facial. SO pretty, *coughs*

Super obscene, trying for second round of cake fight. Pei rong look so innocent :D

Pei rong auntie, we thought you got short hair :O She look pissed also.

OMG so ex! Belle must treat us another time!

Alright, enough of pics, I'm going to fly soon... Weeeeeeee. Be back on friday post on saturday.

blah

Got back interfound results, it ain't good. But luckily i still haven't broken my record, YET. I congratulate deborah lee for a superb result for a first year. :D well done girl, you're so pro and everybody else, trish, isabel, wen xin (she still don wana say her mark), and all those who haven't get yet, GOOD LUCK! And and niki for distinction for INTERMEDIATE! OMG, damm pro. Quite a couple of distinctions this yr but my dance wasn't as good as i and she expected. Oh wells, I have a feeling it's the "flow" and the lack of use of epaulment. But her marks were quite reasonable, according to my strengths, allegro technique which has free enchainment included inside was a good section for me.. Musicality was good but i heard inter did badly.

Tired now good night peeps, long day tmr, senior at night.

lalala

FINALLY tkgs anniversary is here. Get it over and done with. Have been dying the past few days and I'm gonna miss ballet today D: NOOOOOO. Anw jiayou ppl, for la sylphide and rising sun. There's still smoke for rising sun and it stinks even though he claims whatever effect is there.

Bro got his results yesterday, moderate to him not too high or low but considered crazy for me. Considering hwa chong, so nerd. No offence pei rong, opps! Going to the school to walk around today, not me, him and mum. Anw, this year score not really very high, people expected higher though.

After anniversary concert there's still Crestar's nutcracker and sooner or later school will re-open! And my homework's not done yet :S AHH.

I seriously need a break, really. Luckily next week I'm going for a 3 day trip. Haix.. I need a longer break mannnnn. Help, I don't want to go for dance later. I shouldn't have join this thing. Dance everyday sian, always the same item.

Okayy, gtg ppl D; so tired and sleepy and dread SCHOOL (don get me wrong>.<) dance.

yay

I got into 3e1, econs and geog elect with athirah, mimi, shi hui and nurul :D cool. At least, i got my first choice, actually a lot of people got into their first choice, from what I know. Not fair, the results were released yesterday but i was in school. But yeah, no surprise cuz lotsa ppl alrdy told me about my class before i checked. And yup congrats everyone, there's no combined science in our year, see we're more clever than our seniors! :P

Yesterday was so rush la, rushed from home to school, school back home and rushed to TM for ballet. So tired I slept like a pig last night.

Playing pet society then off to school with hair gelled up :S I hope we don't wear make-up today. The lightings are pretty nice but it's so ovally, despite patterns in it. Our skirt is so long (?!) -.- break a leg for full dress peeps. I ♥ rising sun. But they pump out so much smoke almost choked and the lightings are also so red.. I rather our leos look goldenish yellow. More like the sun, hees.

And I'm looking forward to see DSI's production :D

xoxo

bored

Heymath sec 2 holiday assignment PART 2. Part 1 was so tough, actually not really la... Still have some questions I have NO idea how to do. Actually since I have quite a lot of time to kill before dance I may just do it. Sighh. . I'm so bored. Thinking about how many hours of dance later. 3-8pm full dress T.T 8-10 or something senior. Blehh, just hope I won't collapse. Luckily there's no jazz before senior :D But sometimes it's kinda fun!





Play a bit of p.s., and tammy, you REALLY should play ok [: oh and deb, you sure are pro la, a few days gain so many points already xD then lunch, sleep(?!) then dance dance dance till the night. The good thing is that me and kim have permission to leave early today! YAY! Then I'll go PP for some food or something.





Yup, that's all.





Love, xin.

Had a stayover at gran's, only ONE night after dinner yesterday and with bro too, parents went back. That meant a night at sengkang. It's so long since I've been there, really miss it. Yup, and dinner was delicious. Eunice is so adorable, no pics to show though D: She loves looking at the dry ice that comes with my dessert. She blew into it then cover her mouth and laugh then repeat, my auntie said she super vain. LOL. And she keeps thinking the fake flour flower is the real one and smell it -.- Faith kept on smiling. She loves to smile and loves peek-a-boo. Eunice keeps imitating people, i ask her a question she ask me back. Right. And she got so amused by the seafood in the fish tanks especially the crab and her favourite, fish, I duno why. And she got kinda grossed out because of the lobster and prawns, long feelers thingy.

Was looking over some resources and I thought the idea of getting a degree in dance is quite cool, they have BA and BAA but I don't think it'll be recognised in sg. That is if I can go to a university overseas to study. Long way, but I think I'll have to plan in advance.. Grade 8 sucks, I prefer interfound class. . Somebody help, I feel like really lousy. But I really don't have a choice. I shouldn't have signed up. Sigh again. You just miss a class and she like finished a dance. Alright, I'm not gonna think about it anymore, who cares if this time I don't get a dist anyway. I WANT INTERFOUND RESULTS. Please come soon......

Swimming and probably gym with my mummy :D and then dinner with father's side. Always eat eat eat so boring! But I guess I'll forward to those ballet vids I bought ;D


Love, xin.

Yesterday's dance CCA was boring. Pretty much didn't do a lot of things cuz all the items were together. At least I went to the mrt with kim :D Next week I'm gonna be rushing to TM and tkgs like mad, everyday there's school dance. AH! Can't wait for the anniversary to be over over!

AND YAY! Deb is playing pet society!! Join in the fun. [: And finally her facebook is considered quite active xD Can't wait to see you guys in december and have class with you all again. MISSES. And I know you miss me too. Joking. To ballet peeps or rather, michelle, thanks for organising this thing and I'll try to make it for the 11 Dec chalet thing, if i don't have full dress rehearsal, or i may just drop by :D I will tell you all nearer to the date. But 12 Dec is a no-no for me. And why deb you not going?! D:

Okay, I'm gonna play p.s. now (not playstation but pet society) and shop later :] I'm gonna miss grade 8 tmr cuz of school dance T.T Noooooooooo..

random

Anaheim ballet

Chanced upon this video. Superb. Yup short post and I'm carrying on with my cross stitch, waiting for the next ballet/ CCA day to come. So boring.

Oh and if you have a facebook account play pet society that application. It really kills time and it's fun :D

random

Okay, I officially prefer Ms Pang's classes to senior, as always actually. Lol, on monday me and niki hid ourselves behind the studio where there were benches and all until 8.20pm. Guess why? To skip jazz! :D so naughty of me (us).. And we ended early, FINALLY! Like at 9.45pm instead of 10, well, at least borders was not close yet, one of the last shops in PP to close. Les Sylphides and rising sun later! xD WHY IS EVERYTHING EN POINTE FOR ME?!?!? senior, les sylphides, I should have told her an excuse like I wasn't ready yet but I'll try... another 5 hours of hardwork later. I finished my math and science holiday homework plus extra revision. Just had the urge to study and probably enjoy much later. Ciaoz.

NUTCRACKER♥

rising sun

I love 'rising sun', it's turning out really good.. 'Sunrise' isn't a bad name too eh, I like the Sunrise drink though. I don't want her to leave not at least until syf's over. What's wrong with the school man. Why can't she just let her carry on teaching.. All of them just don't really support dance club as much as the other CCAs but i know this syf we're going proof them wrong. I hope we get a gold this time.... Argh. Imagine getting a new teacher only in Jan, we surely won't be able to participate in syf la.. Then dance club will go down the drain. NNNOOOO. I like the current item although it's tiring, VERY! But there's kicks and turns! <3>

I miss grade 8, miss pang's shoutings (LOL?) I really do esp valse, hee hee. There's senior tmr, at least it's not a monday class! Going to shop later to store somemore leotards, pointe shoe for nutcracker... I heard only senior and hot choc item get black nutcracker tees, the others get white and we have the word 'CREW' at the back as well as a crestar logo of course. COOOOL! :D YAY! I will surely buy it. Can't wiat for 13 Dec to come, I hope we have a matinee! Since there's such a great response.

Maybe kim's right, I really like shaded things a lot. The colours just flow naturally.. LOLS.

bleh

I've been so childish the other time. I've always wanted to tell you that I was sorry and that I never neglected our friendship before. This marks the end of sec 2 and I really wanna thank you for the wonderful good and bad times we spent in the first year and I'm sorry if I hurt your feelings. It was hard for me too, if you didn't realise. You were a really great bestie and seat partner and everything in sec 1 and I will never forget that. I hope you won't too.


I'm just hoping I get to economics cuz there are SO many pro people like in band 1 wanting to get in there. Chances are so slim.. AHH. Had pedicure yesterday removal of thick cellulous, dead skin. Foot spa not FISH spa! So unhygenic, may contract diseases. Grade 8 was great yesterday. LOLS! And I love valse printemps :D Although I don't think I'll be able to it. . D:


VALSE ^^ blur, but this girl is quite a good dancer


Bro's going for some party (!!!) later and I'll be home with mum. Doing house cleaning. Ever since the exams, my table's full with books and rubbish haha. Tmr there's senior till very later again... And tuesday I'll be going over to ws' house to play Wii! WEEEE! :D Toodles...

sad

It's barely been a two days and I'm missing all the seveners. . D: So sad to have accepted the fact that we'll split classes and we cried and hugged on the last day, dreading but at the same time looking forward to the holidays. I WILL MISS BUNNY No.2 aka Nad (: those lovely times together... That waisze and victoria brought joy to my sec 2 life, one so funny and the other so sentimental but fun to have as a friend also. Looking bad at those happy memories where in sec 1, everybody was strangers, our first performance on stage was superb when we won first prize for sec 1 orientation. Wanna cry alrdy. It was very unexpected. But many friends sure did leave a little something in my heart that I will never forget. It's been 2 years and time flies..


Thanks for ALL the promo gifts including that lovely framed dance picture from ruoxi THANKS!!!!, nice ballet paper thing and the dance bear with a locket from vic, NOTHING from waisze, forgetful person, choc from jie ning, note from asyiqin blah blah... THANKS! Pics cannot be uploaded cuz camera not with me........


CCA on thurs, bleh.. I'm not hating it but I don't look forward to it either.

private

I'm super fustrated one of the reasons having to miss senior today D: cuz of my grandma's birthday. HAIX.. I don't go, she'll think I'm not filial, my parents will get angry and I don't wan things to be so compliacted. Second time this year, another misunderstanding. That's what happens in girl schools. You want your friends to be perfect in anyway and if they don't, just a bit of a small matter, you just assume what they think. Just to tell you, no-one is perfect. I will not bother about this anymore, friends come and go anyway. . It's just true friends that leaves footprints in your heart. On the other hand, I find that she, is so wierd. I mean, everything happens so fast, and after a while, friendship just breaks like glass. Obviously, there's still a bit, but it's very hard to patch it up again, trust me. I mean, I feel it's wasted. I have to admit, I did give her choices in her friends, not to follow her everywhere, i gave her a choice. She can don eat recess with me if she wants, tell me she wants to change first. But you didn't speak a word, you didn't. If you did, I really WOULD UNDERSTAND. It's just too late. I still have other friends and i know you have a lot too, I can hang out with them if you want, but now it's so complicated, I don't know what you want from me. Really. Fine, you can go with your OTHER friends and just, leave me alone. I had enough of such stuff. Sorry if it's hurting you, but I think we are not so close anymore, so close to say that we're best friends. If you still think, i am selfish, a very selfish and childish friend, I don't know what to say. . I've tried my best to be a good friend already. Really, my very best. I finally let my heart out to tell you what I feel. I don't wish for anymore of this again. . argh. One minute, she's the closest friend that you ever have and the next, like a stranger that misunderstood you, making you feel disheartened.. You didn't even give me the chance to be a good fren, maybe we have just to much differences.

I'm looking forward to grade 8 class with juniors! :D

She asked such a sensitive question. We were talking about her in dance, can't she just spare a thought for other people's feelings? Maybe she doesn't know.

tired

Was dreading dance just now. Hardly pulled through it till about noon. The studio light was such a nice environment to just snooze off. And later still have waltz of the flowers item at MP Crestar.. WAHH. At least kim worse than me, got guitar then got jazz class then got waltz.. Pro larh she. Exam over more busy than before.

I'll try to stay awake in CCA tmr.. Hopefully I don't go back too late today. *yawn* I need rest.

Anon

Oppsies! Haven't been blogging for a really loooong time. :P

Since exams over already (quite long le, hehe), I'm still so busy with school dance and ballet. Our not-confirmed SYF item is really nice. I enjoyed it a lot, well, at the moment. Kinda like a contemp piece unfortunately not ballet next year. Really busy since exam finished that day already start CCA le. . Then monday and tuesday marking day we have to go back to practise in the morning T.T like no freedom larh.. But oh well, school's anniversary is coming and we're performing like 4 items now, so obviously, we are super busy! I kinda dread dance now cuz it makes me go on a diet, no heavy lunch and no snack/ tea time, but i think for kim it really works. A ballerina's diet- BREAD+WATER! :D Helping a lot. We've got to diet for our performance(s) end of the year!!

And just finished watching The Nutcracker performed by Kirov Ballet in Mariinsky Theatre on video. The Dance of the Mirlitons was superb. The two young female and a male dancer were really good, i bet they will grow up to become very successful dancers. The waltz of the flowers and snowflakes were nice too. Yup, it's the nutcracker season this end of the year!! SDT's having theirs and Crestar's having ours too. Exactly the same date, for them, opening night but obviously, different place. Ours victoria theatre while theirs is esplanade, obviously more expensive.. Yeah, and we're doing waltz of the flowers only, but it's tough.. 5 mins en pointe. So, as usual, busy with dance. Someday I may be bored of it. But i think i never will. ^^

ballet exam

REACH for those prettayye lines. .


Yup, it was pretty much good. Adage was kinda screwed pointe wasn't THAT good but pirouettes were on and the dance was great. The 3 others were very good and all 4 of us got the free enchainment, but i got it from the first time she said the steps. xD She was kinda nice today. But that doesn't mean marks will be high. She kinda smiled in my dance or maybe that was an illusion. HAHA. I am not really glad it's over, i miss inter found especially the dance. D:





Yeahh, my free enchainment was difficult according to ms pang. There was jete ordinare, sissone farame and pas de chat. Actually all are my favourite jumps. And I saw Yuki from summer school '08. The one from SOTA. She was no. 3 and i was lucky 2. I love being 2. So yah, had a good chat with her before the exam. A very technical dancer she is. Superb. No 1's from Miss Pamela, Crestar. And No 4's from Mr Li Tao, Crestar TOO! They were all good.











Alright, now for the "wall of fame"!





Thanks:


Deborah Lee, Amanda, Niki, Angela, Jiaxin, Kimberly, Vivian for the encouraging smses.





Thanks:


Belle and Deborah for tagging on my tagboard. :D





AND thanks to mummy for accompanying me to crown centre and daddy for taking leave to drive me there early in the morning. And of course, MS PANG, for giving me the sufficient practises before the exam, that made me so confident. <3








A bit more of going on facebook and I need to catch up on revision. Although ballet exam's over, I'm not gonna slack cuz concert is coming. SDG's gonna do waltz of the flowers AND waltz of the snowflakes. WAAAHHHHH. Two LONG dances. Yikes, I need to train my pointe. Right, ciaoz!

tired

Finally, the day is coming.


Just came back from ballet, really tired. Yup, did A.F. work then inter and inter found. 'Rojak' class >.<>


How i wish i could be like her.


My adage sucks, really. Sighh hopefully dance and the others will pull me up. Broke my suprima shoes le! I thought it wasn't hard shank. I thought my arch was weak. But i'm inproving i guess, breaking it faster and faster everytime, without hand!



It really is! xD




♥ Even if I really don't become a ballerina or of any sort in this life,
even if I really don't fufil my dreams,
I have done my very best, and
my passion for dance will never stop burning, never.

interfound

full of grace and passion that never stops burning...

Open house was ok, especially pirouettes and allegro (as usual). And yeah saw my vids and i stayed up quite long. Dance was good and everything. . Today's class was superb we did lotsa advance stuff and all and started with some nice warm up exercise with waltz of the flowers music from nutcracker. Ms Pang was in a good mood. [: Like of course la, her whole table since friday has been full of presents. Alrighties, gotta have some sleep now tmr i'll mug mug mug and yeah, all the best to Belle for her exam's TMR! Good luck! I, myself can't wait for free enchainment my favourite section. It's like you don't know what you're gonna get. And it'll be jumps! Hopefully it's some waltzy solo thing. Heh. NIGHT NIGHT!

short post

All right! There are so many things that i'm going through these few days I don't know where to start. I just know my next love besides ballet is contemp. I think my school seniors did a really great job cheorographing to sweet religion and i just know i have to dance it well. And yest we did contemp for audition too. It was quite wierd, 4 of us auditioning only and we kinda automatically got it. Awkward! Yeah saw kim again wear until like hong bao like that and i saw the girls which she had been gossiping abt in sch. Tsk. [: Oh and so far CA3 I have 3 As, I know, THREE ONLY! But english was superb, highest in class. (: 83.1 at first got mark error now i think 84 or 85. Highest EVER. Math B3 science A2, i know, wierd. Last time my sci used to suck loads and math was like A. Haix. Oh and art was good too. Later meet viv at 5pm then go palais. Oh and btw, thansk for the super duper uber belated present. Small present but lotsa hardwork in the box and stuff. LOVE IT! And WOW! I'm gonna dance like everyday except monday. And i like it! :) Alright gotta finish D and T folio thing, argh.


And i WANTED TO do a short post like deborah lee's short sweet lil posts but I just can't help typing and typing and typing. HEH. (trying very hard u see) Probably cuz i don't post as often nowadays, can't find the time. .

LALALALALLALALA

Ok ciaoz! Oh and belle, hope u'll recover yeah.

lalalala

Olympics gymnastics is love.

Palais dance studio was ok went there on friday! So funny larh me and vivian missed 3 full bus stops w/o even realising! Fyi, she was reading her breaking dawn. Miss one more stop and we'll have to walk like so far. Luckily we were early, it was like our "warm up" walk. And she treated me to one whole bottle of GREEN TEA at 7 eleven! HAHA THANK U! <3> sternum problem again. . :/ Haix. . I would have done better without it. But i still have time! YAY! AHHHHHH. Kim's exam on 19 sept 9.30am mine on 18 sept 9.30am!!!!!!! MISSED BY ONE DAY D: so sad if not we'll be competitors. HAHA! :P

Oh and yest's national day parade was considered very high tech, loved watching at home. Reminds me of the water chapter in geog book. HAHA! The water thing was nice and the fireworks. Singapore SOKA association was the last finale item and that's my association :D They took centre stage during finale. Greenies and blueies! And we had 600 plus ppl on stage, the most of all items, so proud of it! The item was simple but u should have seen it from high above, on TV they were super organised and the formations were superb. I WANNA JOIN NEXT YR! The broadcast ppl were saying they didn't remember any national day parade SOKA didn't participate, I AGREE! And chingay parade also! I LOVE SOKA! [: haha super enthu and high now. Currently chatting with michelle (random i know).. And tmr i'm going to ruo xi's house yay to celebrate a BELATED bday party. . So can't wait to see ruffles also!

HAPPY 14th BDAY TO MYSELF!

Had a reeeeaaaaaalllllllyyyyy great time today celebrating after school at bugis. Best birthday lunch of my life. Maybe not my best birthday cuz was quite sad about some things. . Went to swensons i got this really cool ice cream for me and dessert of the day. YUMM YUMM pictures will be uploaded when i'm free, yup. :D poor sheryl she was like "i know how to do it" open the ketchup bottle when the other sheryl already uncapped it for me. Then the whole ketchup went on her hair, chair and floor, omg la, a bad hair day for her i guess. . But she will never forget this day. So funny. Went to bugis at about 12.30pm. WE WERE RELEASED EARLY! And yeah spent like 4-5 hours on neo prints, lunch, SHOPPING! Went to muji (LOVES), many many shops. Oh and the best thing, presents, thank you for them, love it real much (pics will be uploaded soon).

toe

A total disaster before majors examination.
Oh please oh please recover fast.
Doctor says I can't dance for TWO weeks, how am I gonna LIVE? Die of boredom larhhh. But i will surely go one. :D
I hope that this bruised toe thing is common. I've heard many stories about black toenails and stuff. Mine's just purple. CA3 is very bad at this point. The papers all so tough. ARGH.

GOTTA GO! 2 more papers.

I miss you bestie

A FRIENDSHIP LOST
by Brenda J. Metz.
(Really touched me, and made me recall back, what happened. .)


I remember the time not long ago
When we laughed and shared it all
We were the very best of friends
Or at least that’s what I thought.
Calling each other every day
For now, I do not know what to say
I often wonder why friendships end
What happened to sever that tie
How can someone once so close
Just ignored you and said good bye
I must have been lacking
I must have been wrong
I wasn’t the friend to you
That you were to me all along
I thought I was loyal
I know I was true
But something went wrong
Now there’s nothing to do
A friendship lost Is a very sad thing
I just hope I can bring back something
Something, just those fond memories we had
But now you have your friends of your own
And i? Feeling all alone.

Now, my only wish is that we will get into the same class next year. I really LOVE AND MISS the old days, A LOT. It was my fault, I guessed I ignored you first. I miss you bestie, i really really REALLY do. D:


Ok alright about emo stuff. YAY! Scored really well for history source-based and lit assignment and BALLET JUST NOW WAS superb, fab. I'm so happy today!! I just LOVE LOVE Ms Pang's classes and I promise I'll never ever TRANSFER or QUIT. But i must work on my mistakes and not be complacent. MOOD: [: [: [: [: [: Gosh. My toe is still NUMB from just now like 2 hours ago? And yeah my fourth toe was like as white as sheet again, the bottom part of nail breaking off terribly. Sacrifice, sacrifice. LOVE THE PAIN. It's the result of your good effort you put in, excelling in every lesson that you go. I shouldn't attach any picture of my toe. It's rather gross, my mum was quite freaked out.


Behind those plasters, lay thousands of unhealed blisters, broken white/ black nails, numbness and all, but I finally feel the true feeling of sacrifice, for dance, my only love. © xinyi

Reach for those lovely lines. .

Reach for your passion,

Reach for the stars. .

Aww.. Our salmon entry didn't win, but i had fun! :D

Subject combi first round, i missed triple science options cause my math didn't make it by 0.5 marks! Science made it though. [: AH. But still, i don wish to compete with the scholars next year. Safer to do double. Maybe I wan economics elective or pure geog and lit elect. Hmm. . :S

And sunday's class was ok sat too, I haven't got the chance to do the solo dance yet, congrats to belle and wen xin on conquering it really nicely. Wen xin's like super perfect larhh, just that she gotta smile a bit more. xD Well, and i tried doing pirouette en pointe, I DID A SINGLE! YAYYE. Oh wells, i shouldn't be so happy cuz other ppl can do doubles. -.-

And yeah sorry didn't blog for so long, xinyi's lazy here tsk tsk. To end this short post, I love inter-found dance!! :] Mugging, muggin and mug! :/

HUNGRY?! Looks delicious right? (Self-praise, tsk!) Salmon competition entry. Done by me and hoi leng! Credits to mum for the orchid, garnishing and cutting all those ingredients. It's real nice esp the unique honey sauce for salmon, salty and sweet and colourful. YUMMMM-Y! Now it's have confidence for the competition, FOUR JUDGES! WAHHH!

random

1.6km training for NAPFA timing: 9 min 12 secs! 4th in class, vic was real close though, 3-4 secs apart. Ran with her [: AND new seating arrangement, i'm beside deborahhhh and nawirahhhh now. Quite ok larhh, miss my bimbo partner SHI HUI! :) Hmm. . And subject combis are out, duno what i wan...... I guess see which the sch recommends? I think I wan geog, physics, chem? Yeah, normal. Eh, duno larh. Say no to triple, I will die all the way, hahahahahaaa! Gonna be a short post, muscle ache from today's run. Duno whether I can dance tmr a not. :D AND I LOVE INTERFOUND DANCE! So dancey and allegroey! I wanna score well for that! [: Alright, gotta rest early and get some work done tmr morning before ballet. And i can't wait for B'Boys and Ballerinaaaaa!

perf

Peformance was a really big success! Everything came out right, and I prayed a little before performance. Praying keeps ur faith going. It was quite windy though, scarf was ALMOST too hard to control, but i hold on to it the whole time. :D Oh wells, scarf work was a bad idea at first, but at least WE TRIED! "4 signets" dance was great, for me. As usual, pas de chats were SUPER OFF, what to say?. . But we had great fun, LOOOOVE IT! Gave everyone a small minature size of swan lake costume/card/bookmark. Multi-purpose la. BUT I TOOK VERY LONG TO MAKE IT OK! So treasure it, yup. Miss all those rushing from school dance for rehearsals. But I am also glad it's over. HR group (human revolution) from SOKA was superb, omg!! I wanna join them too, but i can't do hip hop one. Heard only chosen people get to join the core HR group, too bad they do only hip hop and break. I'll aim for sunflower group now, wait till i'm 18! WHOAAA LONG WAY MANN!

All right gotta pack some stuff before school starts tomorrow, TERM 3 HERE I COME! (Not really prepared though, opps.) Realised I've been dancing extra much this holiday, school dance, summer sch, inter-found, reh, WOW!

This post marks the end of my summer school. Sadly.

summer sch 1

I've been DREAMING about it till I can't sleep. Feel like dancing 24/7. :D

The Kirov Ballet. They look like swans. :]

Err I can't find the shadash we did from coppelia but i like the mazurka too. The music is lovess. Anw, (above) by royal ballet.. AHHHH. SO fab!

Compared to us in summer school, our pas de chats are much nicer and higher. Probably cause we have shorter legs like and we're younger lols. GRACE TAN, MY PAS DE CHAT RIVAL! :P She super pro for a P6 this year larh! Lol the teacher was like looks like there is a pas de chat competition in the studio. (In a certain accent larhh, haha) Last day of summer school D: I'll miss all the DSI girls and other frens that I've made. WOW the DSI girl, Sian (Shan) can do 15 fouettes! BEAT THAT! My max like 12? ;( Alright yest the two items in front of the seniors and teachers was really good! YAY! Gotta do my homework, looks like I am not gonna finish in time D: I keep dancing everyday this week I forgot all about HOMEWORK! I like it though! xD GOOD LUCK FOR OPEN CLASS EVERYONE, I'm sure it'll be great. Hope ms pang won't be there.. :S

I burst my blister yest ouch larh, it bled.. :( and i know random, our pianist is a jazz pianist and he's super funny keep playing tunes from some physco thing. He used the CD as a UFO lol. Wierd. I still remember the first day of summer school for every exercise he kept playing the same tune, dum dum dum dum. We were laughing like mad with the tchr, but he improved so much larh, now he can play ballet songs. GOTTA RUN, OPPS!

great work

You deserve a good break, GREAT WORK TODAY XINYI!

Broken nails, chippped off, the whole nail detached, it doesn't matter anymore cause what matters more is that I give my best. I finally know the true meaning of hardwork. Dancing with your heart and soul. All those sweat and blisters, I don't really get them in usual classes but I'll work hard from now on. I don't know where it'll lead me to but I just need to keep on pushing and strive for the best that I can be. :D

As usual class was uber great and yeah it was the 2 dances and allegro and developes and barre again. [:

Alright I'm tired now so nighties! :)

summer sch :D

I can't believe she said my doubles were excellent and fabulous.
I can't believe she said my character shadash from coppelia was excellent.
I can't believe she said I have a nice poise for character.
I can't believe she said my jumps were nice.
I can't believe she said that I had a nice style for barre work.
I can't believe I actually improved my arch tremendously through summer school.
I can't believe she pointed at me and said i was wonderful during character.
I can't believe she has high expectations and pushes us very hard but i still did it.
I can't believe she said it was very hard to impress her but me and my partner did.
I can't believe my partner is only sec 1 and she is like the best dancer in the class.
I can't believe she's a current teacher from the ROYAL BALLET SCHOOL.
I can't believe that I'm actually ME.


Ok, so much for "can't believe", I BELIEVE THAT FRIDAY's OPEN CLASS WILL BE VERY NICE! We shall impress the parents! [:

summer sch

SHORT POST! SUMMER SCHOOL RAWKS! :D lalalalala~

Had school dance just now, class and french dance. I think the french dance is more and more fun to do! Yup, it was ok i guess..





I wish i could change the past, i should have treasured it, but now, you've changed so much... D:


Sigh, i guess that's how fragile friends are, get on with it.





GET BACK TO YOUR SCIENCE HOMEWORK XINYI!!!!! :D

the day

THE BIG DAY! :)



dance like no-one's watching. [:
If you enjoy dancing, believe it. If you like dancing, show it. If you love dancing, live it.

outing

Went to stage image and costume shop/connection with mummy. I guess it was quite like a reward for my CA2. :D Well, I guess it was okay larhh, I'm so gonna take geog and maybe physics and chem. Typical. Yeah.

And ruoxi played like songs from nutcracker suite that i had on my MP3 on the piano in school. Although it was a LITTLE out of tune but I still hummed the songs all the way and yeah, it was stuck in my head. But i particularly ADORE waltz of the flowers since young. My living room clock will play like diff music every hour and one of which is waltz of the flowers. Remember when i was young, when I started to hear it I'll just dance around the living room. Heh. Got this waltz routine I "cheorographed" and now i still remember it really clearly. ><

Gtg for dinner, yikes!

new skin

Yup, finally a new look! :D YAY!

I'm so excited about SOMETHING.. Only besties will know. ;D Finally i'm getting the chance, a dream come true. Surely will give credits to a lot of ppl. ><>

~What has happened? Those sweet memories of the past. .~

random

I love the madelaine's junior's hamster MILKSHAKE! SO cuddly and huggable. However today's one was different, no-name yet. I think it's our class pet. Today one den hao lian lorh. Show off all the tricks. Thought it was a boy but it happened to be a girl. Was kinda surprised. Some hyper-active hamster that won't sit still. Gees. And (above) some random hamster pics. :) But all are brownish, MILKSHAKE is greyish. I'm so gonna miss her. D:

Stay tuned to dancingforeva.bs for a new skin. This time, really hor. :D Mood: OVER DA MOON! Cuz there's class tmr. I miss it SOOOOOO much!! ^^

Recess pracs are so fun, although got "free show" SO MANY AUDIENCES! But really satisfied cuz we taught the sec 1s how to do hinge kick. The sec 3s once requested to do it and everybody was like "HUH....." BUT WE MANAGED TO TEACH EVERYONE OF THEM TODAY!! And opps, my classmates were there. And yeah, they DID make noises but dance as if no-one is watching. SO YEA! :DD Aiyo then on thurs worse, more ppl saw. I think if we collect money from everyone of them we'll make thousands. HAHAH. Yeah and my private ballet juniors saw me. I was like SHIT LA. And yeah they did make fun of me, but in a good way. ^^ YUP, I *HEART* CORNER WORK! xD

CA2 results weren't as bad as i thought, well it was kinda deproved for some subjects but some shot up. Two A1s, geog and home econs. Two A2s, math and science (0.7 more marks get A1 WTS!). EVEN IF I HAD THE CHOICE TO DO TRIPLE, I SO WON'T. English and chinese B4. AIYO.. Usually my languages are good one lorh.. I SO HATE LIT.. Teacher so strict in marking T.T I have a good feeling I'm gonna do well for solo poetry recitation. I love beautiful old age. Tsk. ALL ABOUT APPLES AND PIPPINS..

YAY! Ms pang's back, that means go back to coaching classes fullout. Gonna train hard for interfound starting from tmr. And i think i'm gonna sign up soon too. >.<

`with strong faith, nothing will remain unsolved.
I pray for world peace :D, passable CA2 results, ballet everyday and the GREAT success for Pasir Ris Chapter Friendship Gathering 27 09 08 <3
Completed e-learning for art and lit. Lit was like so easy just copy and paste from text. LOL. "Things that have four legs are our friends, things that have two are our enemies." Hee.
Went to taka yesterday ate azubo sabu Hokkaido ice-cream. YUMMY! Makes me remember of Jap. ><>
Alright, gotta go, DV xiao yuan at my house (NOT!) C'ozy corner. ^^
I so am looking forward to next next saturday where there's 3 hours of dancing!! LOVE IT MANN! Hopefully there's monday class too. [: Argh slacking this week, ms pang's on holiday. ENJOYING herself i bet.
Finished watching save the last dance 2. SO NICE!!!!! (:
I will dance to the last minute of my life...

random!

Word of the day: ABS! Ok i know sounds wrong.



It all started yesterday during combined dance cca while doing ms chiam's floor barre tummy exercise i was laughing like mad and i suddenly realised laughing does makes you have abs. Lol and then during CmPs meeting during recess my VERY-FOCUSED group met up, but half of the time we were talking about muscles. Right. And to conclude, I think chocolate also makes you get abs too, (cuz i eat it everyday ><) no larh, i think it's really sit ups. Ok right i duno what i'm talking. LOL. Eh, but most dancers HAVE abs, i think. :S So wana have abs, thirah :D, DANCE! [: i can't imagine mann! hee hee tsk.

Shucks, I only scored 8/10 for my stupid careless damm mistake! I can't stand it anymore. SO wasted. HAIX OMG I FORGOT TO FACTORISE! KILL MYSELF!!!!!!!!!!!! Nvm, I'm will try to do well for the next CA. (:

Grade 7 open house (outdated i know)


free movement rawks!

my big day

UNITED WE STAND, NEVER TO FALL!







BEDOK SPORTS STADIUM! :) [me, cy, shihui, hoileng!]




US! (long caterpillar, NOT! ^^) [me, cy, shihui, debs, mimi]






(above) belle, don be too envious. KIDDING!!!









(continued..)


AHHH TODAY'S THE DAY! So excited and i have this really good feeling I'll do my best. Yesterday had short class cuz ms shyam had class after us. Character was super good and free movement too. Just that i couldn't really click my cabrioles during the exercise when i tried to click when i'm not doing the exercise it was loud. WTH!!! *!$^*!$^* Hopefully today I have all the pirouette luck and click luck. LOL! Thanks ppl for the moral support!! DADDY!!! Thanks for taking the effort to message me although you are busy overseas. :D RUOXI!! THANK YOU TOO! <3>






And yesterday science SPA (totally not relaxing but even have a danger of electrocuting you) was great. Not as difficult as I thought. Then after the test miss chiam was like, "Next time if you girls have any exam on a school day must inform me even though your letter is approved by general office already". I guess cuz cy forgot to tell her before her exam date. Then after class I was like, "tmr i'll not coming to school". Then ms chiam did some awkward position not long after then i realised she did a fifth position in her arms. LOL! So funnaye. Yeah. Gees! I'll be missing geog test today. But i like it sooooo much sounds so fun, i wanna take!






Getting really tensed.. approx. 5 hours to my exam. HOPEFULLY I DON BLACK OUT! Alright I shall start streching now and use theraband!! :D FEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET! D:





La danse, c'est le mouvement, et le mouvement, c'est la vie!
