friday post

today was really an epic day, to mark the final day of july. 

first started with a performance for the international delegates who came to my workplace for the world debate championship. the workplace hosted this prestigious international event. honestly speaking i also dunno how come my workplace was selected to host it. 

the performance was actually the item that i choreographed for this year's cny concert. because of my busy schedule i simply can't find any time to practise with the students, so we only practised for less than an hour today and we just went on stage to perform. i have a lot of faith in my students. hahaha. 

batman told me that there are some parts that could have better coordination but overall the performance was good. most importantly the international delegates were very impressed with the performance and so yes the restage was a success! :)


after lunch i brought the show choir kids to SCAPE for the first combined b-dazzled rehearsal. and they had a very bad run, and the worst thing is all the other schools were there watching the run, and they felt really depressed after that. and they cried during our debrief. i am glad they cried because they knew they screwed up and they are capable of doing better. they cried because they have the heart for show choir and this means alot to them. i believe they will pick themselves up and become better performers. 

and right after the rehearsal i rushed to 海南会馆 for the sibu rehearsal. i was already late and so i didn't eat dinner. we had a really intensive 2.5 hours of rehearsal, doing crazily difficult 民间 steps with an empty stomach is no joke. i was literally dying at the end of the rehearsal. and omg how can BLS do all this at his age?! he is amazing! i am really glad to learn dance from him and my chinese dance students are definitely a privileged lot to learn from him too. 

looking forward to a memorable august!
