Psyche
NAF 2008 for NUS Chinese Dance, named "Psyche" has finally drawn to an end yesterday. On the very last show I teared again. Not because anyone is leaving, but because everything is over. Are they tears of relief, or tears of emptiness? A mixture of both I suppose. On one hand, I have finally got through this week of 2 CAs, 2 presentations and countless hours of blocking and rehearsals. Not mentioning that I have to face dancers whose attitude makes me wonder why they want to join dance in the first place.
On the other hand, this batch of dancers have really forged closer bonds with one another. I can really feel the difference between this year and the last, where last year was very segregated. This year, everyone just seems to be closer to each other, and I can finally feel a tinge of family bonding. Moreover, this years choreography has been a huge breakthrough, making many audience to have a higher judgement of NUS Chinese Dance.
And I am very glad that it happened during my year. All this wouldn be possible without all the respective choreos. Xiaoyun, for being a strict yet fun SM, and also choreographing the few touching pieces. Fen, for always choreographing beautiful pieces and tolerating nonsense from me and some of the problematic people. Michael, for giving me a chance to dance in pieces which are so meaningful that it made me found the aim in dancing again. Shumin, for having done such a good job for a first time chreography, and letting me have a part in it. Zhimin, for also a great attempt for her first choreography, and doing so despite her busy schedule. Last but not all, Cing Zing who has been very helpful in choreoing all the links, finale and jiawen's piece, such that the whole performance could flow well.
All in all. I really have nothing to complain about this performance at all.
And definitely I must thank the committee. Weiqi for doing all the admin stuff when I was in US, in fact she is the in charge of this performance. Xuefen and Jingwen who spends countless hours looking for costumes and props. Zhengjie for designing meaningful posters and program booklets . Junni for helping us rush down to places to buy stuff. And Peiyi, for being there when I didn know what to do with problematic people.
My dancers, definitely, without them the performance will not be a success. My wonderful juniors who has brought much joy and laughter to the group. The guys, who has been helping us out so much despite their tiring schedule. Seniors, of course, for always being part of us no matter how busy or tired they are.
Last but not least, Yuxi, lileng, lijia and mr tam. Without all of you, I may find no inspirations to dance well.
Ha oh and must also thank those people who showed me loads of concern over my knee. Its really okay, though it looks like this now:
Ha but overall its much better le, thanks!
Though Psyche is over (I will definitely miss dancing all my three dances!!!), Laoshi refuses to let me step down, which means I will be busy through September. Another challenge yet to come, but now I am no longer afraid to do this as I know there is always a group of capable people who are supporting me in this group.
NUS Chinese Dance truly rocked the house this year.
Oh dear was just watching samsoon and heard K-idol music, I am missing all of these already.

Feeling better
Wow, didnt know people actually read my blog until a senior called me up. Haha, *wave to Agnes* I wonder why nobody leave comments boohoo.
I guess my blog has been pretty depressing, like what ah fu says, I put stress on myself and the group. Well, I am still trying to learn to manage my stress properly. Hopefully I am able to improve within my last week in Chinese Dance Committee.
A week before Arts Feste come to an end. I know I will definitely be sad because I wont be able to dance such wondeful choreography again, but I will definitely be relieved that its over. The adrenaline is too much for me to take.
Right now, I only hope that I can improve tremendously within a week(miraculously) and put up a good performance. God bless me.
Will be fiercer than this in minsan's dance!

Random Feelings
Today went off to dance with a bad start. Was feeling okay until I start dancing, feel weak and tired and coulnt stop panting. And people around say that I look pale. Strange, wonder whats wrong.
And Ah fu came today. He came to me and told me I did a good job in putting up a good performance, and that I have bonded a lot of people. But deep in my heart I felt like I have done nothing as a president. It was only because I had an extremely strong committee that I can get things done. Honestly, I don't think I contributed anything to this committee and that I havent been a great president. Haiz, but thank god that I have wonderful committee, seniors and juniors.
Didnt really receive any comments about my dances today. Dunnoe why, feel quite flop again today. I dunone to make excuse that I am sick, cos I did put in my best. haiz, cant seem to find the right way to dance anymore. I dun understand why I have to be put in front when obviously I am not performing up to standard.
Last but not least, it has been easy to develop tears in my eyes now for Shattered. All I need to do is think of my mum and tears will come on. Fast. Ha, is it a blessing in disguise that she is in US now?
Ha this post is so random, but yah, lots of thoughts to pour out. Still waiting for internship results, still fighting for time to study for midterm, still considering if I should stay in hall next year.
Hai, Huishi is no longer superwoman.
