term 3 has been good so far. now i am preparing for 2 big events: the national day concert and b-dazzled.
national day concert is combined together with the arts festival. a lot of work has been put in to conceptualise the concert. we are presenting the story of singapore from the past to the present, in the form of a dance drama production.
this time i am not the artistic director. i am nurturing a new colleague to take over my position. i am still performing for this concert and hence it will be my final performance and my swansong in the workplace!
next monday i am going to a school in the north zone for an interview. wish me luck!
b-dazzled is the show choir festival organised by singapore show choir academy. the past 2 years it was held at nus ucc. this year it will be held at the star performing arts centre. thrilled because i have never been there before and i get to check out the backstage. i always love exploring the backstage. probably because of the performer's blood that flows inside me.
my instructor told me that she is super sad because this is her last year working with me for b-dazzled. very sweet of her to say that as she has quite a domineering character and that makes me appreciate her words even more. :D
right now my friday nights are devoted to dance practises with xuehong and bai laoshi. it has been great working with bai laoshi so far and he is very good in spotting my weaknesses. and the way he correct my weaknesses is in a super humourous manner.
let me share some of his 经典名言:
"YY 你太厉害做造型了。每一个动作都是造型。民间是民间。不要每一次做造型。"
"YY 你跳舞太用力了。你每次一用力，就想起要跳十二分钟的舞蹈，你自然而然就跳的轻松多了。"
and the next sentence is the ultimate. not commenting on me, but commenting on our dear xuehong.
during that practise there was me, nzj, bin gege, peter and another male dancer called zixiang. xuehong was not around.
"在你们当中，fen 最厉害偷懒。你们都太实在了。"
hahahahahaha. really ultimate.
