performance day:nov06

It's The Salsa Foundation 1st anniversary party
there's performances (the one that I've been talking abt for ages), basic bachata & salsa class, social dancing, yada yada u get the picture
1st up was the salsa beginners routine
damn it was so playful & got the audiences all hyped up
u'll know wat i mean when u go to facebook & watch the vids
they are all over fb like prawns in District 9~weee~~~
balak was just too funny in that routine.cute cute cute^^

then ladies routine, i thought it was bad, because I messed up the routine here & there
it was my first performance during that night & i haven't warm up enough yet~
eek, can't balance properly with the heels><"
but when i looked back at the vids, it was all sexy & good XD
but I don't really like dancing alone la..prefer sth like salsa or bachata, dance with a partner :)

in d bachata routine, damn..girls were sexy guys were hot
damn.bachata is just slurrp slurrp seductive
if u watch the rehersal during the last 2nd week, bachata was like crap, everyone is in a mess, ppl can't rmbr moves& blabla, but during the real perf, it was so touching T_T
I'm so proud of Raf because he can't rmbr a single move for the last part of the bachata at all
Made me so worried abt performing with him, but gladly he took a lot of effort to memorise the day before
suff forgot to change his shoes, ROFL
they were supposed to be in black shoes, but he wore green sneakers lol

for intermediate salsa routine, damn. all of us were so caught up with the zouk perf by a couple that we didn't change into our salsa costume right after the bachata perf.ROFL syed was like "CHANGE! CHANGE! our salsa perf is the next! what r u guys doing?" everyone was like blur blur~O.O"
then snap! girls started changing behind the trench coats, guys change on the spot, the whole backstage was in war=,=

highlights of the event was the birthday cak mag & carli baked & the skit we prepared to entertain our teachers.hehe
the birthday cake took more than 8 hours to prepare & bake & they've used 3 dozens of eggs
there goes 36 lil chicks that could've born into this beautiful world~ T^T
the skit that we prepared consists of a chain of songs stringed together
the funniest thing was everyone in the skit was busy getting prepared at the dance floor but no one actually go & start playing the song.ROFL~
there's no skit vid tho, eberyone was high, esp at YMCA song, audiences did it together with us!!!
ange was practically in tears during the cake & skit part

in between there's social dancing, solo bachata, solo zouk perfs & classes la, lazy to talk abt it
moreover, vids say's it all, my text sounds boring to read la aiyo

oh YES! ange (our teacher) told us that the highest comment that we got was from a dancer who is active in the salsa scene for a long time.
she said that "I've never seen a bunch of students performing with such passion & enjoyed the whole performance, not in australia as yet. This is the first performance by students that I've really enjoyed watching"
There's also someone asking us to perform at the upcoming Melbourne Salsa Fest.omgomg! wth!!! smugs*
cehwah.kembang!~~

one downturn was my cough got worse & i actually couldn't sleep at all for 2 nights=.=
kill me pls~really cough until my right side ribs hurt like hell, my intestine tie knots, my lungs bergetar until become minced pork.aduh...
there's so much phlegm in my lungs that I have to keep going to the sink & spit it out
in the end, i became lazy & put a bowl on my table instead
the amount of phlegm that i spit into the bowl at my office right now, is just insane*_*
u can't even c the base of the bowl at all
this yr I fall sick more frequently than ever, this is the third time.
i got to take care of myself a lil more >_<"

fifi always get picked up by guys.damn funny!
ROFL!~i reckon u should use this name, fifi, when u get picked up by guys..
fifi=F, stranger=S
S: hi, r u gay?
F: o.O gay?no, i'm not. how abt u?
S: i am gay. we r heading to the city later, do u want to join us?
F: sorry, no thank u

AHHAHAHAA..funniest thing is fifi even asked 'how abt u??'
damn~

ahn nyeong~going off
heck, need to buy groceries later=.=
if not can sick like pitiful cat & starve to death at home T^T

bachata competition.cough

syed & I were thinking of joining bachata competition
there's couple & group
i really want to do this because as said, " If u don't do it now, when would u do it?"
i doubt next yr i would be dancing this vigorous ~.~
i'm back to uni next yr

i really hate to keep speculating abt something which u wanted to try but u didn't try...just because..of all the excuses u've given to yourself
"what if this what if that", bloody hell.just go try then u will know the outcome lar
aduhai~ if not u can keep thinking abt the possibilities like forever

i'm not nervous at all to join the competition because i'd like to go in there, enjoy the song, dance, atmosphere, don't really care abt winning it or not.
hmm..think of using Xtreme's Te Extrano @ 4ever's Mundiero por Ella
love sensual bachata songs <3

heck i'm still coughing, it's been more than a week!
esp, night time, i cough like crazy@_@
-.- so tired of trying to find ways to cure it alrd
drank pei pa gou, ate cough candy, drank asam boi, drank warm water, drank slurpee, drank mag's chicken soup....wat else!!? teach me~~~

long weekend

had 4 days off last weekend~
sat, sun, mon, tues :)
tues is Melbourne Cup Day, don't care abt the history
most importantly it's a public holiday!!

thought could have a bit of rest, but most of the time were meeting up with salsa friends to practise the perf routines
so sick of it, don't want to practise anymore, can't wait to perform
my left feet hurts, right leg muscle hurts, whole back hurts, right arm hurts
just want to perform & get it done. period. >:)
plus, i cough like hell omg..can't really sleep well at night

fri & sat, as usual, all of us stayed over at shah's house again
some creepy guy attempted to break into shah's house!!
wth~!
too bad lah, the house that night got 9 ppl, the thief would be dead in seconds
wat exactly happened i'm not so sure, wasn't fully wake altho my eyes were open at that time

what did I do on sun daytime again?
o.O can't RECALL!!!
sun night I insisted on going back to my own home coz I need to settle some stuffs on mon
paperwork & docs haven't done yet..
shah is just like a big boy! when he is excited abt sth, he will explain the story to u with shining eyes, big smile. sweet sweet~
then balak walked home with me, had a great time spending time alone with the log
because most of the time we r always surrounded with ppl, seldom have time alone

mon i slept 12 hours! so exhausted, but I'm contented^^
slowly walk to QV to buy printer ink then slowly walk to uni to make some enquiries on next year's enrolment
met yat & jon along the way
then 3 of us met up with max & wan
suddenly we go & play basketball near jon's place. haha so random~
coz I initially thought it's going to be a lazy day wandering around alone
and wth, I nearly forgot that I have ladies routine at 8pm..
luckily balak reminded me ;)
so we played bball for an hour, then head over to peko peko to eat dinner
sedapppp, unagi fried rice & pop chicken bento set!
wan&max didn sleep for 3 days, like zombies

tues, went docklands kaikai with syed & mag
both of them stayed at my place, syed stayed for 2 nights & mag ran away from her house for a week. lol
bought groceries & cooked dinner at my place ^^
mag & syed's cooking skills are superb, that's y u all must make friends with hospitality ppl
see how pampered am I? ;)
evening we headed over to carli's place in preston to have a final routine practice before the perf day
not only salsa & bachata routine practice, we even did a skit too
12am only reach home, by then we r alrd flat out & dead crawling T^T
next day got work too :(
but at least i got to hear balak's voice :)

wanted to webcam with my family, haven't got the chance~
whyyyyy!!! i want to talk to them :/

boss

my boss is a very humble person.
he doesn't get panic easily.
under his leadership, i felt like i can trust him & not worry abt anything
he sees himself equal like us, never puts himself high up in the air
he's like an anchor, instead of a balloon yg kembang kat udara
he survives on vitamin C - cigarettes & coffee

just now he complimented me for what I've done throughout the whole yr
he says that I have a superb personality & a sense of humour & helped him a lot throughout the whole year, aiyoyo /_\ paiseh....runs off & squat at one corner*
i'm so going to miss all my colleagues when i leave end of this yr
T_T pass me tissue pls, thank u*

there's lots of bits & pieces that he has done that show how nice he is~
but i lazy to tell-.-
see! i told u my boss is a very nice person!!!! :)
i love my boss! \(^o^)/
sends a bouquet of red roses everyday like a fanatic stalker*

tues is Melbourne Cup Day
and I took leave on MONDAY!!! yippee~
haven't plan what to do on monday yet>_<
just decided to take leave at 3pm just now after when I knew that I have 10days leave that I haven't take yet~! wth.rajin tak terhingga lahhhh
i need to take more leave before i finish working!!!! wee~

got to ring mag up to discuss abt sydney trip too :)
didn't see her for a yr alrd ^^

everytime i sms balak i'll surely fall asleep halfway typing it,
with the phone in my hand & msg halfway written
just hope that balak didn't sit there waiting like idiot-,-"
feel bad~ :X

funny fun

ROFL~i still can't stop laughing at this photo <3

i'm thankful of the random encounters ytd.
so many funny things happened & it just brightens up my day :)
i wish for more of these kind of days to come^^
even the tram driver is also funny! wth~
apek was funny, mag was funny, syed was funny, pian was funny
everyone was funny!!
max's random friend is funny too! chaokuku wth

about the photo above...
must explain abit, later huixian eyes me with her hawk eyes again :P
last few weeks ago, me & pian took a series of photos using a software, called youcam, where it'll tweak the webcam with funny/weird effects
we couldn't stop laughing because the expressions are just hilarious&silly
we've got a whole bunch of photos but i lazy la..

love you ppl, whether it's friends or strangers, who put smiles on my face :)
which..made me think of wat max said to me last yr,
"do u know that u have the ability to put smiles on ppl's face?"
( ._.) makes me shy only*
u all also put smiles on my face wat!

happy happy funny funny. me on cloud nine ^^
someone send me to asylum pls.thank u~wee~

thought of posting more light-hearted posts since spring is here
flowers blooming, the sun is sexay~
just realise that my last few posts sound negative & keep pondering on serious/sad stuffs
my blog sounds like i'm 70% pessimistic, it's just because in real life I don't really talk abt things like that, most of the time i'm goofing around. thus my blog becomes a channel for me to be a lil bit serious & think about life in general :)
it's been long since I photoshop pics with narration ;)
maybe i shld start that soon \(^o^)/

conversations?

yling says that my blog has been having too much musings
"having conversation with my ownself"
-___- wat to do? my house has 4 walls only!!! no human to talk to~

went with yling to safeway then lepak at her house for awhile coz long time didn c her ^^
proud of her! she managed to hatch out her presentation board WAY BEFORE SUBMISSION!
how cool is that!!! :D
usually her presentation board only appears on the submission day itself eh!
throws flower petals in the air & runs around like an asylum patient*
evil la u, yling~make me so happy.HAHA!

altho having gastric & yada yada, i've been feeling really light hearted nowadays :)
love the sun & my red hair & my lovely encounters <3

balak is always so caring ;) thanks
"be good & study! don't make me feed u grass"

hui xian is eyeing me with her hawk eyes, saying that i have scandalous pics in FB!!!
mana ada!!?!!??!
how i wish scandals are real, it will add spices to life :D
ok, maybe not. i'm asking for trouble-,-

my colleague, cliff, a jolly old man, wore ice-cream colour shirt to work today!!! love it! \(^o^)/
ME: I like your shirt, looks like ice-cream to me!!! :D matches with the sun!
CLIFF: thanks, just don't lick it.
ME: HAHAHAHA!
CLIFF: It looks like pyjamas to me, not that I wear pyjamas to sleep anyways
ME: No, no, not at all~~
ADRIAN: I don't want to know what u wear for sleep though
CLIFF: haha, yeah, I wear stockings with suspenders
ME: laughs non stop*
(coz i imagining him in stockings with suspenders with a tutu & red lipstick)
didn't tell him this part-,-"

ta for now~ :)

update:
bumped into Max's FB, accidentally saw his friend's email address
make me cracked up like hell. omg
chaokuku@blablabla.com
omg chaokuku=smelly penis...wth.who would have thought of that kind of email add?

Michael Jackson remix:

It's a group of students singing acapella of MJ's songs, the songs blended really well!!
awesome <3

gastric.sore throat

sth has been bugging me lately
don't even know how to open my mouth to say it
took me huge courage to talk to a friend abt it & she asked me to put into the freezer first
and talk about it during this weekend

my gastric friend has been visiting me again
my ultimate illness-phobia T^T
my last gastric attack in june made me missed home so much
thing is when gastric comes, it doesn't go away by drinking some alkaline stuffs/medicine
it lingers around for weeks & whatever that goes down my stomach seems to dissolve into dust, thus making me constantly feeling hungry no matter how much I eat
and I got to becareful with the food i consume nowadays
no appetite to eat, got to force to feed myself

plus, i got sore throat too-,-
wth

good la. now the manuka honey & hot water can kill 2 birds with a stone,
good for my sore throat, good for my stomach

my colleague asked me to go to the doctor to check my stomach
it might not be gastric, it might be a bug
/_\ but i'm scared to go to see doctor alone!!! should i go?hmmm..

change.bachata

good weather today, wanted to cycle..but omg..tak larat
skip one day..tmr c how :D
the tiredness from dancing all night at copacabana on fri still creeping till now=,=
later got ladies routine practice still

btw, syed & leilani got 1st prize for salsa beginners on fri night!

had an awesome night dancing all the way, not only we did salsa & chacha social dancing, we also had a fair bit of time dancing to clubbing songs too! yay~

everyone was on high coz our friends won it!! :D

i think u all will be bored abt me talking salsa all day=,=
but i figured it would be worse if i talk abt my work life.lol
just don't vomit lah when u read all these perf posts~

wthomgwtfbbqfishcrapdamnit..last sat, my 4th bachata partner was changed!!!
2 more weeks to go! ~.~
bachata we swap partners for 4 times, so yeah~
yo yo! Mr R not in the house! 2 weeks not in the house! now back in the house!
wth how to catch up man...
he better buck up practising with me or I'll iron him flat & suck him up with vacumn cleaner
>:) i love evil ideas.ngek ngek ngek~
for the past 2 weeks, me & syed have been practising with others
lee lih jiunn, who is bad at rmbring moves, can now do the bachata routine in her sleep
i'm already exhausted la..aiyoh..want me to go thru the routine again?
thought I could have these 2 weeks a lil bit slower pace, guess I have to be on full force again

nvm lee lih jiunn, suck it in..suck it in..
patience is virtue (puts a post-it note in my brain*)
just got to release all the intensed emotions then I'm all good
i'm not feeling angry now..time to get my arse shaking & go thru every bit & pieces with him
feel like drinking milk shake, been developing addiction on milk shake now :D
i've already gone past soggy fries & milk froth addiction
i guess drinking more milk shake can get my bootie shaking too!~ wee~
ok la, just encouraging myself that things will turn out better ^^

abit sore throat pulak o.O
honey, honey, where's my honey~~~~

here.there.

i miss my archi friends, the safe haven for me in a sense
those that understand me well because we have been together for like 5 years?
the ugliest, the prettiest, the moodiest moments we have experienced together~
I even miss my ex-housemate, purple slug, dota, i want to hang out in a house that always has at least 10 of us!!!!!

i miss my salsa friends too, although I see them almost everyday
i'm contented with the intimacy I share with the few salsa closer friends in the group
love the diff energy & vibration given out by each person
I miss shah's house, all of us love his house ^^ it's so homely & energizing in there

i miss my lifegroup friends too but seldom hang out with them liao
love how they care for each other like family, sincerity is precious
i really want to spend more time with them if i can
so guilty because they have been sending smses asking me to go & i have to reject unless i learnt the ninja skills to split into 3ppl

make stupid changes to ALDI floor plans
found more careless mistakes, wish I can be a lil more observative

what happened to my salsa social dancing?
seldom go already because of the vigorous training for salsa/bachata/ladies perfs
want to be socially active again

but then, i'm studying again next yr
what do I want to do?
I feel like I'm not enlightened yet, no clear path in front of me
makes me feel insecure :/
I know I'm suppose to prepare & upgrade myself, but I don't know where to start with
no direction at all, it feels like swimming in the vast endless sea

dancing & singing relieves me from the enormous invisble force that I'm feeling currently
a force which i myself can't explain too
that's y i enjoy dancing so much..
am I escaping into fantasies?

someone whom I haven't seen for 3847210482472394 years, suddenly called me the other day
not because they miss my company, not becuase they care for me, not because they r curious or concerned abt my well being
no point saying the exact reason why the person called me for~
like a smack on my face, makes my heart shattered into pieces, but didn't want to show the vulnerable side of me by surpressing myself instead
love how mag, syed & pian came over to spend the night with me
just the right time I need the comfort & love
i just can't sit there thinking abt it all day, things would seem 10x worse when they aren't actually that bad

just so u know, I freaking pulled the back muscle of my left leg
but padan muka I lah...didn't do warm up before that
thought it was a normal cramp, but cold sweat was dripping all over my body
walked like a camel to shah's place
syed offered to carry me, but I chose to walk on my own instead
he spoils me too much, I dont want to take him for granted :P
Afique gave me a massage & I felt like I just came up from hell
so tired from screaming & rolling around because of the ticklish & hurtful massage
but my leg did get better & I was up dancing again the next day ><
i just have to dance whenever there's good salsa songs that I love, so I tried dancing slowly & without dips :D

yay! looking forward to a friday night :)
syed aazam & leilani r competing in amateur salsa competition
i want to join too, but now my waist is still pain
wtf, supposed to join with vik but I really don't like vik & feel uncomfortable with him because he took advantage of me
ask shah join he doesn't want, he's a good leader but likes to put unnecessary pressure on himself
shah, if u came across my blog, "u r a great dancer!! just learn to let yourself loose & enjoy the music!"
but i really want to join! guess the timing is not right for me :(

looking forward to tmr's perf practice too! it's going to be rehersals with costumes on!
i think i'm not going to do any dips, just to be safe :)
should i go rmit gallery before the routine practice?hmm

what do I want to write, you may be thinking..
those are the stuffs running in my mind while I'm writing this post
fikiran bercelaru~
woman's brain=.=aduhai...

how i wish i have more than 24hours to do what i want to do, take my own sweet time to experience whatever that comes along~yada yadaa
not that i want to show discontentment & disatisfaction of my life, but i just feel like having more time, that's all^^
i'm living life to the fullest now, slowing down my footsteps to smell the flowers, breathe the fresh air

physical.evolution.change.

i was going thru the fb photos & boy how much have I changed~!
just want to show off some positive physical changes of me throughout archi life :)
paiseh-nyaaaa...runs off to one corner & cover my face* :D
