i'm currently feeling very happy and very sad
wah what mixed feelings
okay i shall talk about why i'm happy
*drum rolls* I AM SO HAPPY AND HONOURED TO FINALLY ANNOUNCE THAT I GOT A DISTINCTION FOR CHINESE DANCE EXAM YAY!!!!
okay yes the words says it all
i am satisfied with myself =)
felt a huge sense of relief when laoshi told me lah
actually the results can only be said nxt year february
but my teacher is so nice and decided to secretly tell me my results hehe
i love her alot!!!!!!
and i was like practically jumping around her office when she told me
cos i was happy!!
yay!!!!! my hard work paid off!!!
i'm so grateful to zou laoshi for being such a great teacher!
she is the best teacher you can ever get =)
and now, why i'm feeling sad
its because the examiner is going back to china tmr
and for the past one week
i have been going to nafa to help out
and i practically spent one week of my life with the examiner
from morning 7am - dinner time
and i really got to know her
and she is super duper nice
she is tall, pretty, young, super good at dancing, friendly..
wah i look up to her alot!
and she is leaving tmr
i'm so sad lah..
sigh. i really love going to nafa!!!!
going there to help, its just so fun
everytime we go there, whenever we have any free time
me, jiajia and huimin will run to the empty dance room
and just dance and dance and dance
i really love doing it!!
we will also discuss alot about the dance steps and moves,
the ganjue
wah, i miss it alot!!!!!!!!!!
we will just dance anywhere and we dont care who is watching
cos we love doing what we do!
one week just passes so fast

i'm back from dance exam!
and i'm still feeling the excitment in me
i dont ever want it to go away lah haha
i'm glad that today was not too bad
i was kind of satisfied with myself
now just hoping that i get distinction!!
although lao shi say its quite difficult
because this year is much stricter than the other years
sigh sigh
but anyhow i'm still feeling happy
i realised that the examiner does not smile at you
she doesnt smile la..which makes her so scary
oh and every group in my class got question B
which is so qiao3
like no one got question A
which means no yao2 bi4 =(
that dance is so pretty
but anyway quesiton B got
ancient korean dance
which is SO SO nice
and i love it to bits
the exam came and go so fast!
before i knew it it was over
and i was outside the room
sort of like talking to laoshi
she so easy to talk to
and so encouraging
i think she really makes you motivated
although she scolds most of the time during class
but its all for our own good lah
she said stuffs that made me feel happy.yay!
i'm really glad and grateful that i got to know her
which is smth that makes me feel that i've not regretted coming xinmin
maybe thats why i respect her so much
all wells, awaiting for the results
and i have to go nafa to help out tmr again
which means having lunch with the examiner
i wonder if she remembers me =x
hahah i hope she will be friendly.

I REALLY MISS THE SL INTENSIVE
at first i was so not looking forward to it
i was so sian when i thought of it
but who would ever forsee that the 4 day 3 night camp
will be etched my my mind as beautiful memories forever
i really love the camp alot!
it was just so emotional
during the first day the whole SLB was so ununited
everyone was so into their own cliques
and not working as a team, as a whole SLB
everyone was so selfish and refuses to work together
even SU ( OUR TRAINER ) thought that we were a hopeless bunch of SLs
we were reprimanded a zillion times
we all hated doing reflections after every single thing we do
we all hated the presentations we had to do
we all hated the nights of without sleep
we all hated the camp
we all hated the physically and mentally challenged activities
we all hated the little amount of time we had, to finish our reflections and presentations
but it was like a miricle after that
after we realised that the situation in the SLB was so terrible
and how many poor leaders there are inside to pull the board down
we all started to work together as a team
we encouraged
we endured
and cheered the whole board on
and impressed SU with the xinmin spirit!
even she was surprised with our level of enthusiasium in whatever we do
xinmin SLB is just so different
i REALLY love it
i'm so happy and lucky to be part of this wonderful SLB
and everyone was so concerned about each other
during the electric fence activity
it really showed the committed SLs in the board
and how much we cared about each other
seeing the guys all slogging their guts out
worrying for every single one of us
seeing the girls cheering for the boys
and helping in whatever way we can
THATS IS JUST THE SPIRIT!
and ofcourse the best group ever in all the camps and groups i've been in
THE BESTEST GROUP EVER TO EXIST!
THE BABA-RIANS!!!
i really want to thank each and everyone of them
for giving me such a great time in the camp
sandra
minghao
ruimin
regina
samuel
alanna
peiying
the group will never be as fun without any one of them
there was never once in this camp that we had conflicts
we didnt even quarrel
the bond between us was just so strong and powerful
i love them ALOT
THANK YOU BABA-RIANS
the times we spent as a whole SLB for the final dance performance
was just so bonding
everyone really put in all the energy left in their body
all our efforts just to make this a success
after the nights of insomia
uncountable times of rehearsals
finally showing the X=Q
the SLB's high quality
during the FGLs closing on the last day
i just could not control my feelings
and it was just so emotional
i cried
and so did everyone else
seeing how commited everyone was to the board
and relfecting on our performance for the whole camp
how we stayed together
it amazing to see how so many of us have grown and become mature
tears just couldn't stop flowing
i really missed those times
the BABA-RIANS closing and the final SLB closing was so touching
the whole SLB cried
everyone was so touched and we all really felt the bond
SU is such a great person
someone who is able to inspire
she totally rocks the whole board!
when i went up to her
and told her i am her warm fuzzy
she just hugged me so tightly
and said so many encouraging things to me
telling me that she've seen me grown so much
and that she is so proud of me
i was really very very touched
and i cried so much
everyone's eyes was so red and swollen
but it wasn't tears of angony
i really wished that the camp will never end
i miss doing the reflections
i miss all the presentations
i miss WATER BREAKS!
i miss the camp so much
the next day i went to school and the SLs eyes were so swollen
i'm so proud to say that the SLs in the SLB
are all GREAT LEADERS!
CHEERS TO XINMIN STUDENT LEADER BOARD!
AND CHEERS TO BABA-RIANS!
THANK YOU FOR CREATING THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER!!
I LOVE THE BOARD <33
