okay fine, posting for the third time today
because i just changed my blog song.
this is the song of one of my favourite chinese dance and chinese opera.
its called the ''butterfly lovers''
this song is only part of the entire song,
the whole song can be heard if you play the one underneath the one that is playing now,
i put two songs there,
the bottom one is the more fully versioned one
''butterfly lovers" is the chinese version of "romeo and juliet"
its called "liang shan bo yu zhu ying tai"
the entire song is about 25 mins long,
(its the second one i put below)
the song will go through the whole story,
from where liang shan bo and zhu ying tai met,
where they go through ups and downs together,
where they both fell in love
where zhu ying tai found out that her father match made her to another guy.
where zhu ying tai was devastated
and where liang shan bo died for her
and then zhu ying tai wanted to die with him
so they finally died together
in a terrible terrible storm
and they turned into butterflies
flying to heaven together.
a really romantic and nice story
i really love the show and the dance
the melodies are really really nice.
i really wish one day i will have the opportunity to dance the "butterfly lovers"
its one of my favourites!
perhaps one day when i'm a professional chinese dancer
i'll have the chance to do so haha
awaiting that day to come (:
-------------
// 9:04 PM
hahah i'm blogging for the second time today,
because i forgot to mention something!
hahah
read from the newspaper today that,
the chinese opera institute is going to have a diploma course starting next year!
and secondary fours are eligible to sign up for it
haha that means i am eligible.
wow i'm old haha.
and they are gonna teach alot of things about chinese opera,
classical chinese dance, stage designs, singing, acting and MANY MANY MORE
so chinese opera lovers out there who wishes to sign up and is eligible,
don't mind giving it a shot (:
but i still love to go to hkapa<3
i'll never get enough of chinese dance!
-------------
// 7:48 PM
wow today was kind of a freaky yet enjoyable day.
i met three of my primary school dance-mates today.
like what a coincidence!
haha
went for tat today
and there were three new comers
two from my primary school dance
and one girl from gymnastics
the gymnastics girl was very good in her flexibility
she is very much like her sister who was from nus chinese dance and is super good as well
but her sis went to america to further dance i think
hahha
so anyway i found the other two so familiar but i didn't dare to ask them
but in the end i did.
and it was so surprising lah!
and one of them, rebecca,
she is the daughter of my primary school principal
she was also from nyps chinese dance
and her mother actually recongised that i was from nyps
super cool!
then after that i went to the nlb.
and when i was leaving,
i saw suikim!
my good friend, who was also from nyps dance
hahah.
its kinda freaky seeing so many of them today,
but it was fun! hahaha.
so anyway,
i feel that i like tat alot.
i didn't used to like going there that much when i started out
but now i look forward to it every week
just like i look forward to nafa.
now i look forward to fridays(nafa)
and sundays (tat)
yay!
dancing is SO NICE!
i love tat!
i love nafa!
i love ding hong laoshi!
i love zou laoshi as well!
i love my dance teachers!
and i really like the friends i made in tat
there are really nice and fun to be around with.
yayes!
wish them all the best to korea though.
i shall be stuck in singapore horribly trying to study for the o'levels
hah
hmm.. 8 more nafa lessons to exam
ahhhs!
i really feel that i am not ready
as in, totally not ready
i think because of the o'levels
i didn't really prepare myself well for nafa
and now i'm really scared that i might not do well for the exam
i want to mantain distinction de!
but i feel that its quite difficult le.
my technique totally sucks.
and my flexibility arh...can go bang the wall already.
almost every lesson,
zou laoshi will say to me
"ruimin, ni3 de3 ruan3 do4 hen3 cha1 leh, hui2 jia1 yao4 qu4 lian4 hor."
( which means: your flexibility very lousy leh, go home must practise okay )
then i'll be like so embaressed
and my face will go red
after that, i will just smile shyly and nod my head
its a standard routine.
argh i hate myself.
okay i shall mantain a positive attitude
things will be better, i hope.
oh well.
thank you for today,
i enjoyed it (:

so one week of school is already gone.
another two more weeks and its study break already
got back some of my prelim results already.

i haven't improved!
cos the results that i got back so far is the same as my mid-year result
its kind of disappointing..
but nevertheless, i shall work hard for the o'levels
shall keep a positive attitude
i don't think any school will want to acept me lah ):
i'm still not sure if we are going to genting or not
well i sure hope we do.
its about one month to the o'levels
and i hope that it'll come quickly
cos i want it to be over soon!
i can't wait to do so many things after the exams
if only i can turn into a genious in one month..
oh well,
peer pressure.

but after that,
the dancers went crazy!
we took photos doing many stuffs!!
we did da tiao, ban tui,
posed, splits and many more
and we were like taking photos here and taking photos there

its okay haha
mrs lim gave us maths papers to do during the weekend
aww man, and she say until like we did very badly for prelims

but i shall jiayou for the o'levels!
oh and i really want to go to the dance competition in malaysia!
but the criteria is that our dance must not be more than 5 mins
but what?????
our dance is 7 mins
and if we cut somemore
the whole dance will lose its meaning already

going overseas with the dancers is so cool!!
and it will be fun hehehe
thats something to look forward to after the o'levels
