During tht 3 days and 3 nights(including Friday night) we stayed over at our teacher's hse... N, it was awesome~~~The hse was a paradise... I am in love with the garden=) Other thn tht... her daughters we fun too... they were vry friendly especially the 2nd one... N also extremely adorable ^^ i really miss staying there... XD

Anyway, back to the competition thing... It's real sad tht i didn't get anything... But i'm really happy already bcuz i got into the finals=) (15 out of 54)* i was number 22* And i'm proud of it cuz this is my 1st time entering a ballet competition... Bt the finalist also gt some stuff: a ballet tights, a participant cerfiticate and a small trophy( it think so...)*nxt day i'll add pictures of it...



1st Day(Saturday)
On our 1st day there( Saturday)... Category 3(my category) had a compulsory class... it was way freaky... i was standing just in front of the judges... bt i managed anyway... hehe... but after i finish our Compulsory class at around 11.15a.m. ( i was the 2nd group) i had to wait for others to finish... we waited 4 the category 1 & 2 to finish their Enchainement class until 4 something in the evening!!! OMG! we were all starving like mad n tired too...=( we only had our breakfast in the morning (milo n some bread) thn in between we had a piece of bread n a banana n 2 small piece of dark chocolate... well, after goin bac to our teacher hse, we gt a nice bath n thn we went out for dinner(finally...Haha) we ate nasi lemak... it was great!



2nd day(Sunday)
On the 2nd day, we have to wake up at 6.45 in the morning... so tired(we slept at 1 something...talking n laughing all night...XD) thn we did our hair n this n tht n others... thn finally a small meeting outside in the garden(we did meditation...teacher gave a small talk n stuff) thn after breakfast we went to Matic Hall n report ourselves n waited for our turn to rehearsal for our compulsory variation... thn at around 12 in the afternoon we did our make up ( thanks to miss wanwan...^^) thn we went backstage to get ready... *i was very nervous... Almost let a tear slip...* finally at around 2p.m. Elimination round for compulsory varation started... i was damn nervous!!!!!! after dancing i was sooooo damn excited keep jumping around laughing like siao po...XD

Thn...it was time to announce the finalist for category 3!!! bt 1st we have to receive our participant cert. (it was damn long! we had to stand in fifth position or classical pose... Imagine 54 participants!!!) thn in the end the finalist... well, i have to really admit tht i was realy vry nervous... because they will announce in number order... well, whn the announcer say:"erm, i think i'm gonna read this person's name wrongly, so pls forgive me..." I was so shocked bcuz i tot tht the person must b some Indian girl tht is behind me... so i let my hopes down... bt it turn out to b a girl tht in front of me... haha... n thn my name was announced after her...( the M.C announced my name wrongly...ish:@)

And thn we get to sit in the audience seat to watch category 1 and 2(YAY!!)* I also made a few new friends there...LOL... well 5 out of 8 frm our centre gt thru the finals...Not tht bad after all=))



3rd and last day(Monday)
On the last day, we also have to get up at 6.45a.m.( gosh! this is tiring) thn we get ready with all our luggage( they are vry vry heavy)N, set of to matic hall again after breakfast...when we reach there we only found out tht we actually don't need to arrive so early...(DAMN!) we could arrive 10 something just b4 our rehearsal time... which also means we can sleep more=(*ish!!* but anyway we got to see others perform... haha...)

Thn at 1 something our Finals for Compulsory Variation start....*nervous nervous* thn we had a break n thn continue on and on with the other categories... Thn at 4 something we did our Finals Choice Variation...(own choreography) 1st cat.3 thn cat.2 thn cat.1 n finally adult open( only 3 contestants... so all of them will definately gt a throphy) Thn after the break anf photo session for all categories... It is time of the Announcement of the winners, prize & award...

Haiz~ you know the ending... i didn't gt anything... bt i'm also proud tht 2 students frm our dance centre gt prize, one is christine chan hui yen in category 2 got consolation prize and chew zi xin in category 1 gt 2nd place and also the Patron award( she is a REAL GOOD dancer)

Well, i think tht's all... I din gain a throphy or anything... bt i actually gain a lot of other better stuff... experience, improvement and others la... well, this is not an end, it's still a beginning... i'm still in the process in being sucessful...


Tht's all...
