Dance with your Heart.
yesterday was the finals, and Incandescence received consolation prize.
we were shocked at first, no doubt.
'cos we were exhilarted about our performance; so proud and happy when we went back to our dressing room.
after i did my last pose for our dance, i stood so proud, beaming at the applauding audience.
'cos for once, i felt i did my best.
i gave my best.
and i knew it, 'cos i wasn't my heart wasn't tired of dancing.
even though my body was.
i held my head up high, and my fist in the air, and i smiled under my heavy panting.
this is it.
i did it.
and we were great.
and that is what's most important.
although we didn't clinch top 3, nothing can rob us of that exuberant moment.
and i want to thank all these people, for making that moment happen, and for making me the best dancer i could for our performance.
and i know, with all these people i have to thank, i will be a better dancer, and i will win a trophy home the next opportunity i get.
Ryan.i would like to thank him first and foremost, because without him, i wouldn't have even gotten this chance to dance this beautifully choreography. and despite the love-hate relationship, i give him my utmost respect and admiration. for having foresight and faith in us.
Madam Pang and Mrs Koh.our teachers-in-charge would have never been more dedicated and helpful as these two. Madam Pang brings us food to O-School on a Sunday afternoon when she had tons of work to mark. Mrs Koh is expecting and has two young sons to take care of, yet she stayed back to help clean our steps and give her opinion on our movements. i can't imagine who can do a better job than our two teachers. i sincerely thank them for always being there for us.
Mel.
our one and only dance president, and my fellow classmate. i thank you mel for being such a great leader and guide to all of us. your talent in dancing inspires me to become a better dancer. and i respect your leadership and thoughtfulness for all us. thank you, for everthing. even though we didn't win, we have gain victory with our hearts.
Tash.
thank you for cleaning our steps almost throughout the whole practice and training period. you have been great and sensitive to each and every one of us. and i think that is the best thing about you. you care for all of our opinions.
Pam.oh gosh. i don't even know where to begin thanking you pam. you have done so so so much for Incandescence. all the behind-the-scene things were all managed by you during the preliminary. and Incandescence wouldn't even have come this far if it wasn't for you. thank you. thank you so much.
Jea.my mirror. although there were disagreements, Incandescence wouldn't have been the same without you. you have been responsible and helpful and the best is, you always help us watch our backs. and i enjoy the times when we sing together, and make a fool of ourselves. you brought life to our team.
Char/da/ka.
you three are wonderful dancers. and i learn from each and every one of you everytime we dance. how to move with style and grace.. you three have 'em all. and i admire that. thank you for being my inspiration. and thank you for always putting a smile on my face when you guys do silly things. so dry your tears you three, you guys were great, we were great, and how we felt after the dance couldn't have been better.
Jac.you my dear, are the most hilarious. you never fail to make me laugh and smile. thank you for the korean songdance when i was upset. it was really sweet of you. i am so glad i got to know you better through this endeavour. and so far, you have been the best young female popping dancer i know. and i'm honoured to be your friend!
Stelli.the small girl in our family. your giggles, your jokes, your thoughts.. you make us feel young at heart girl! but depsite all this, you stand firm on your ground when Ryan doubt your ability to dance 'cos of your knee injuries. and i liked that. be strong always and take care of yourself alright?
Pooty.since st nicks, i have never doubted your ability to dance. and when i saw you dance first hand this year, you wow-ed me even more. you're a great dancer dear, and i am sure you would go really far with your talent. although you may be quite blur sometimes, it only makes you more lovable. i hope to see you rich and famous soon!
Ming and Bev.
although i only know you two this year, i am glad i had the chance. Ming, you're blur ways and random comments cracks me up all the time. your dedication and determination earned my respect for you. you'll always go aside to practice your steps and make sure you get it right. and i think that kinda attitude is wonderful. i hope you'll pass on this dedication to the rest of dance next year alright? Bev, your commitment to dance is admirable too. despite your sprained back, you hung on for dance. and if it wasn't for your determination to hang on, Incandescence wouldn't have been complete without you.
Iz.nobody could have done a better job than you Iz! you will always be our one and only Drug-free Girl. thank you for contributing. our placards wouldn't have been so pretty if it weren't for you. thank you so much.
Incandescence, we have won.
and we have proved ourselves to be the best.
we danced for us, for our teachers, for ryan.
and as long as we know we did our best,
we are
champions.
i love all of you.
and to all those who came to support me and Incandescence, thank you. thank you for standing by us, and thank you for the flowers and love you give me.
Danceworks has been a great experience. and i hope i have many more dance experiences to come..
ciao.
