after reading some of the Young Adults' blogs, plus people like cleaven's blogs too, i'm starting to feel like my blog is incredibly useless. as in, all the posts are so frivolous. lol. well, too bad. i don't feel like being profound or deep. thinking's too hard. bimbos have it easy man.


however, i'm trying not to blog so much so that it's too hard to keep up with all my posts. heh. which means i limit myself to at most one post a day. which means that on days like this, when i'm slacking at home for a long time, i get bored.

anyway, since i couldn't double blog yesterday, here's it today:

yumiko shared something else at her very very last lesson yesterday. funny, now she's leaving, she takes more time to say things and spends less time doing things with us. reminds me of how ms cheah does her lessons. i miss ms cheah! rawr. anyway, yumiko told us that we must try as much as we can, as hard as we can, to feel things. to experience. that, she said, is what makes dancing different from gymnastics. to dance, you must feel, must express. to express, you have to allow yourself to experience, and to feel. so many of us shy away from emotion and just rush through out lives day-to-day - focus, we say, on the right thing. but then it doesn't occur to us we might be focusing on entirely the wrong thing altogether. she also said that on stage, you may be wearing the most elaborate costume, but when you dance, you're naked because there is no hiding when you are dancing on stage. that's why you need the truth, and that's why you need the feeling.

2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause this dance is my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll see it however you want to...



life's about love, but there's more to life than finding love. or perhaps maybe you just aren't searching in the right places. =)
