anyway, so ballet was REALLY FUN today. we were rehearsing for the end of year concert (PLEASE COME PLEASE COME!! tickets selling out fast, only a few rows left). broadway jazz was first, i partnered mel because jinglin and mabel (our previous partners) weren't here. it was fun! actually i was a bit annoyed that i would be in the same group as mel because i wanted to see her dance again. LOL. but we didn't show in the end, and dancing with her was really fun! not as scary as i thought LOL.
she's a really REALLY good dancer! sighh. it's like, the way she just smiles and moves makes you want to get up and dance with her! that's the way a good dancer should be. no matter what she's doing, she'll move you and make you want to smile, or cry, or just dance with her. =) and also it's interesting because mel's not very, well, big. as in her lines are nice but they're not super long or thin or anything. but when you watch her perform, she really performs and you can literally see her GROW. her whole presence just BOOMS and you're like, wow, that girl is good. i've mentioned that this happens with alot of dancers when they're performing, but mel's was seriously really obvious. haha.
and i can't BELIEVE she's such a good ballet dancer (distinction all the way, mrs lim said) AND hip hop dancer! and i don't mean those fake hip-hop that most ballet dancers do, i mean like really crumping and locking and stuff. i was like, WOW! haha. i wonder if i take lessons i can learn to dance like that? since ballet's not really working for me HAHA hmm better check out studio wu or o school (like i've been meaning to.)
hiphop was fun, do-able but not too easy =D i love dances like that. i think mrs lim thought i was doing pretty okay for broadway jazz, she suggested i be one of the dance ICs (i'm not, in the end, but the point is it was really encouraging. i really value mrs lim's opinion =)) and after rehearsal i did a couple of exercises with valerie (grade 7) - the rest of the grade 7s hadn't come yet so she was solo-ing haha. i love the grade 7 class, it's SO FUN and the people are so nice! =) haha valerie's funny, i talked to her before class =) oh man i'm sad she's not doing the concert but she's going italy, how cool is that! haha. haven't seen deanna for a few weeks now, poor girl had exams then sprained her ankle *wince* get well soon!
OH i can't wait for japan!! YAYYYYYY it will be SO FUN honestly. =D haha YAY!

edit: to quote what claire said, what's important is not the art of worship (perfection) but rather the heart of worship (devotion). so yeah now i'm not so upset about this morning's worship. it could have been better, but at least we praised God through our song and music, and that's what's really important. =) thank you claire.
edit: ARRGH NUS DANCE ENSEMBLE CONCERT IS ON THE FIRST DAY OF PROMOS! ARRGH. there goes my chances of getting anyone to go with me...
