there you go
you've decided to take a step into my shed of memories
a place where i voice out my feelings
do leave your footprints behind
Have A Nice Day!

Fond memories... I still remember those times when i was contemplating whether to join dance or not... and to everyone's surprise... i chose to join... Ever since then... i've embarked on a new journey... and experienced many things that i could never ever imagine i've gone through...
When i 1st joined dance... it was weird being one of the only 5 guys in dance... Especially seeing so many girls wearing leotards and stockings... =X... lolz... Initially i was not used to doing barwork and floorwork... frankly speaking... i used to find it gayish! hahaha... but after going through so many trainings... i've begun to enjoy them somewhat... especially the times when we guys crapped and helped each other stretch! Well... that was those old good times we had together man...=)
Hmm... many things and accidents happened along the way... and it somewhat led to the formation of A.S.S.!!! hahaha...does it rings a bell??? Well... my flexibility improved after every trainings... and i got to learn a few sets of dance steps!!! Gradually... i evolved from someone who does not know anything about dance to someone who is somewhat capable to showcase his dance talent during SYF~!!! =)
Oh well... i've learnt how to dance hip hop dance too... thanks to the help from the seniors! I was really enjoying myself when we guys were training hip hop dance for our cca bazaar during the holidays... Those craps... jokes and stupid things we all did together! Well... we performed during both cca bazaars!!! I was really feeling ecstatic at that time la... cos it was my 1st exposure to dance and i was able to put up a school performance! =)
After a few months since i joined dance... i started to know the girls better le... and the bond between we guys grew stronger... Soon... me, tyson, aloysius and gerald formed a breakfast/dinner clique with kaiying and huichun... ys would join us occasionally... That was those times man... I can never forget those fun outings we had together as a clique...
In the blink of an eye... it was march... and everything changes... dance trainings were intensified... and we guys started to get more serious during trainings... even to the extent of sacrificing our "manliness" by wearing tights!!! =X... hahaha... but we somewhat were proud of wearing them towards the SYF competition! =)
Trainings were tough... all the tears and sweat we all gave just for the one and only major performance in april- SYF... Injury tolls increased while emotion run high... Nevertheless... our perseverance and strong determination kept us going... training after training... we trained as one... bond was eventually developed between each and everyone of us... The chemistry between the trio... duets and group works grew stronger after every training...
Soon after we were more or less prepared for our performance... we went for the school exchange performances with Juying and Bedok View Secondary School... That's when we gained more experience as well as learnt from our mistakes... I could never forget the performances we've put up in front of the schools...
Just before SYF... problems started to surface... misunderstandings led to the weakening of bond between the guys... Initially... the problem was very trivial... but due to mishandling of matters... it eventually snowballed into a major problem... Haizzz... anyway... we put up a performance during the school 30th anniversary before entering the SYF competition... although the result didn't reflect how much effort we've put in for the past few months... i think we still did well... there was no regret...
Hmm... so ya... finally reached the last part of our journey le... where we put up our last... and the one and only public performance- Dance on the move... I invited my friends and of course my mum and sis to support me... It was the most memorable night ever... and i will always remember it... 19th may... a night to remember...
For the 1st time ever... i had alot of emotions running through me just before we went up to the stage to perform... at that instance where everyone hold hand-in-hand and pray everything went smoothly... all the past memories flashed across my mind... i had many thoughts at that moment... So ya... i must say this was the performance that i can really put all my feelings into... I know what is pure sentiments at last...
Thanks you so much for all the good times we had together... without you people... my life in nyjc will not be so fulfilling... you people really painted my jc life flamboyantly... and yea... i'm referring to the dansez-le!!!
Special Thanks To... Aloysius, gerald, tyson... For all the guys talks and fun outings we spent together... It's really fun with the company of you guys man... =) Huichun, kaiying... For all the times we spent crapping and the good times we had during outings... not forgetting what you all have done to try and resolve the "problem"... =) Gwen, wanteng, michelle, peu, teikling, sharon, yimin, shuhui, carine, adeline, shaun and J1 girls... For all the good times we spent together during trainings... the dance would not be complete without you all... =)
