10th SGDF Nationals, 3rd NTU Latin Nationals


Haha another period of silence lingers in the air before this post, so well, here goes.

It has been quite a while before I felt rather happy and satisfied, that is, on last Sunday 24 Jan 2010, my first Singapore National Latin Dance Competition !

Really could not have imagined myself competiting on a national level with Ngee Ann Poly, Singapore Poly and our own NTU couples. It was a very hyped event, lots of planning from our side (I did mainly logistics, haha), and of course full of very energetic ladies and suave gentlemen.

YES ! The results were satisfying !

We managed to clinch
Tertiary Category (Rumba) : 4th
Open Category (Cha Cha) : 3rd

I got a MEDAL ! and I am happy about it !
I think it is because it is something which I put in my heart and sweat to achieve.

Of course most of all I got to thank my partner, Elaine !
Her performance was really amazing!
Given much lesser time than me to practice, in terms of techniques, drama, showmanship, she really surpassed me in it. Haha but I think I win her in feeling the beat of the music... Ok lar just joking.

Thanks to FAIZ !!! Great captain who motivates us ! (not going into details due to reasons)
Haha also thanks to Ethan and Sukyee who were so patience to give us important pointers.

Not forgetting my supporters ! Thank you all !
I was very very happy ! Course they actually came down to watch me !
It may seem nothing, but it shows that they cared, and it shows that I exist.

I really appreciated that deep down.

I may have neglected some of my friends in the past, but I will definitely do much better in future !

Sky, Ms Goh, Eileen Zhang Ai Mei !
Power right ??!! I bet my "蛇腰" totally rock you guys out ! Haha I was'nt joking when I said I'm good right??? Hor ??? hor ???!!! Anyway I have to mentioned it but next outing we are really going JB to eat Ba Gu Teh.

Ah Long, Xiuwen, Helen
Thanks man my HC 203 Casualties Gang ! I hope you guys enjoyed the show ! Eh I never disappoint you all with my promise of a sexy costume and dance right ??!!

Foot '08
Wah you all are so steady ! Thanks for coming too !!! I really cherish our friendship !

Foot'09 + Whee WHee WHEE
Haha as usual , Ms Loh and gang are always so happy people ! Having Hafizah, Joel and Ms Loh smiles are really inspiring to me when I dance! Thanks !

Wah it was actually to my surprise that I topped the "DSA Ticket Seller" chart with 12 tickets sold.
Friends prescence really helped, because it excites me to be more dramatic during the dance !

Random

Been quite sometime since I last blog again.

In life, we always need some time to just slow down, stand still, blank out ...

Only then our heart and mind will be able to think deeper into the everyday things that we see and do.

Anyway would like to recommend one of my Air Force friend, Weilong's blog for all
http://rileon-is-a-freethinker.blogspot.com/
It is a very well written english blog whom shows the author's literacy, and his random thoughts on everyday life.

Weilong is a very very interesting person.
He has one of the characteristics which I admire very much, and is found only in certain people whom I have met in life.
He is able to attract friends around him and wanting to be friend with him.
It might be due to the fact that he is a easy going person, very humourous as a fact.

One particular inspiring comment on his blog

"I can easily buy a present for a girl whom I don't like... but why do I think so much on whether or not to buy a present for a girl whom I like?"

Do you also know that one should never, never, reject a child's present to you?
No matter how small it is, it represents their innocence and want to get closer to you.

There is a child in everyone too.
