Yesterday, there was a showcase. The one that we students have been waiting for the longest time ever. Before we get to the performances, there was training in the morning. Yesterday morning was a cold one, with rain and wind one after another. Thanks to my prank and messages as promised, Jaye got to DK on time xD. Woohoo!! although the training didn't start until 9.30, cause Jaye had to buy some stuff AKA breakfast for himself xD hahaha... yesterday was the first time I actually saw him eat breakfast. Otherwise, I didn't think he would. And he was in the mood people... GOSHHH!! xD
So after training, Jaye asked us to wait downstairs for him as he had to do some more administrative work. This was where the mishap happened; while Jaye was upstairs, we were downstairs waiting for him to come down, during that time our hip hop group decided to split with Sheila, Stella, Ceewing, Chris, Rose and Helen as one group and my group, which is Yoko, Pammy, Toon, Nancy, Christina and I as another group. Sheila & co decided to go to Paddy's, while Pammy and Christina decided to go to Morning Glory. So that left me with Nancy and Yoko. And then, when they finished at Morning Glory, they decided to go to World Square looking for white shirt. That was when Jaye and the other people who were still at the studio decided to leave for Sydney U. We tried to catch up with them but NOOOOOO... everyone was still somewhere else and not at DK. So we were left behind with Sheila's group. We then decided to take the bus in front of Cotton On. Nancy and Pammy started going into the shop and look for a white shirt *sigh* why can't they learn that we were left behind because of their fault?
If they had stayed and waited for Jaye to come down with Wakana and the others, the mishap wouldn't have happened. The mishap wasn't planned.
Moving onto the actual performance of our showcase, to me it wasn't that bad. Because I wasn't looking back >.>, what for? to see Helen not putting energy into every move and stuffing up the first move? No. To see Ceewing stuffed and stacked herself over her own two feet? No. I was just looking at Jaye and doing my solo. I didn't stuff up, which is a good thing, if I had stuffed up then I would be cursing myself afterwards which didn't happen. THANK GOODNESS!! However other people in the group AKA Ceewing and Helen, kept talking about how they stuffed up. WHO CARES BITCHES!? The performance had ended by the time you realised that you had stuffed up. It's their fault they stuffed up, first because Helen was I guess LAZY to go to practice and Ceewing cause she's just tone deaf?
The best bit of the showcase was Nao's Advanced Hip Hop... gosh!! It was soo cool *_____________* And also Jaye's girls were awesome... SHEILAAA YOU GO GIRL!!! WOOOHOOO!! The Greenlight is still in my head cause of their performance xD lol. I saw the breaking showcase... It was great as well ^^ hehehehe. And the break, pop and freestyle battle were AWESOMEEE. GAHHH Nao was awesome with Daisuke and also RAW!! YAYYYYY ^________^V I stayed until 9.30pm o____________O and it hadn't even ended yet. The show was only up to the second group showcase. I didn't get to see Wakana's class did their thing xD. The last group of showcase consisted mainly of Jazz and Street Jazz, but I didn't get to watch it live at Manning T________T. Overall, the whole night was great!! Ermm, I hope to do it again sometimes this year XDv YEAHHH!!

Lately, I've been feeling insecure about things. I've loved, but never deep, nothing is working out. I know insecurities comes with love, it can't be avoided. Because there will be times, despite the length of the relationship where insecurities will occur. Love is not an experience that is just about happiness, there are more downs than ups than one can imagine. Love is like a double sided coin, consisting of happiness and pains. However, there will be happy endings for lovers out there if they can overcome the pains and despairs that comes with being in love.
Fears is an emotion that will be felt by all human beings. It's unbearable at times, but there are always ways to overcome it. As of this week, I've had my shares of fears; as the week comes to an end, there is a showcase at the end of the line. I fear that if we go on stage, that we as a whole group of showcase students won't be able to perform to the best of our ability due to lack of practice. Since Tuesday night, there hasn't been a lot of people involved in hip - hop showcase to show up to practice. This resulted in the students at practice to be unable to master the formations taught by Jaye. We've all worked hard to master all steps of the "Angel's Eyes" routine, however there aren't many people putting their effort in learning it before the showcase. And this attitude pisses me OFF >___
For the past two weeks, we the showcase students at Dancekool has been practicing extra hard for the up and coming showcase on Sunday 19th of April. Exhaustion, due to practice timings are starting to show. We've been practicing nonstop for the past two weeks at night at Sydney Entertainment Centre in the cold. Especially our teacher Jaye, I believe he is the most exhausted person for the past months and weeks preparing the routine for the showcase. Despite all his busy schedule, he's still coping with the timings and for that I AM forever greatful for all the effort he has put into organising the event. I am forever greatful for all the effort he has put into choreographing and teaching the routine. JAYE I LOVE YOU FOR BEING THE BEST TEACHER EVER!! I can't thank you enough, however I'll be out on stage on Sunday and I'll make you proud!! WOOHOOOO!! lol xD.

These past few days have been nothing but exhausting. Dance has been taking tolls on my body for the longest time ever. Training every single day, from Monday to Sunday... I don't think it's good, but what can I do? The showcase is only a few days away and we are not getting the synchronisation I wished we have within the dance class. Everyone is at their own pace, people are just not listening to the beat of the song. WHAT IS WRONG WITH THEM!? I hate it when I and a few other people tries so hard to keep in sync. And the others are not keeping up with us.
Sheila, I wanna thank you for being my courage during dance practice yesterday, you took my mind off my baby and made sure I trained my hardest. Jaye thank you so much for needing me in the showcase, otherwise I wouldn't understand what else I would do during this holiday times. Also thank you for teaching us the choreography and the formations for next Sunday, I'll make sure I'll go all out to make you proud!!
Chris thanks for being a nuisance all the time yesterday, you made me laughed a lot :D. And thank you for teaching the other people the formations and the routine as well. I really appreciate your effort!! Just remember that in the showcase, don't do the normal version of the routine xD. Hahahaha, you messed up because you think of the normal routine that we've been doing for a month or so now.
On another note, lately I've been thinking about a certain person who I called my baby. And maybe it's true that he is my baby, but I don't know what to think. Because I don't want to get hurt again, I don't want to suffer the pain of falling out of love. I don't want to shed tears ever again because of love. I feel my love for him, but does he feel the same? Will it work out? I hope this budding relationship works. Cause I want it to. I MISS HIM SOO MUCH!! >.< He's in my head all the time, he just don't know it cause I don't tell him from my mouth to his ears.
