shall me dance??

MOVIE REVIEW : SHALL WE DANCE?

Have u ever tried eating fries in a movie theatre?? with the chilli sauce and ketchup??
No, the above is not part of the movie, but that's wat i did juz now while watching the show... hahAHa talk about 1st time...we were late?? can't have dinner with like 20 mins left...so have to takeaway burger king...ate the burgers outside and smuggled the fries and drinks in...

the show's not bad....abt ballroom dancing.... storyline's great...happy endings... i didn't know Richard Gere could actually dance....he did the waltz(spelling wrong i think) and the quick steps(or was it quicK feet??). he did it superbly....his feets were like THAT fast...his moves....THAT perfect.... I din think that old man could dance so well...stunned... anw...the show's abit a comedy and love story and of coz DANCE...some parts make me think back.... like when Richard Gere 1st started out learning till he went for competition... Juz like when i'm new to dance and joined hall 3 dance...till preparing for impre and funka...the past 7 mths....its been a great experince...There's this bald head in the show...super good in latin...but then din let anyone know coz in the office, he's the weirdo... he even wears a wig to disguise...haha..but eventually he realised his dream of performing as himself... ..actualli from youNg i already interested into Hip hop dance...now finally got chance to be able to learn it...although not always hip hop...sometimes its jazz...i kinda dun like jazz....hAHahah too SOfT...lolz...if onli i start from young..lolz wouldn't i be pro now?? lolz... but i still have 3 years plus to learn more...c'mon...teAch me hip hoP.....hAHha

Funkamania 2k5

FUNKAMANIA 2K5

Great experience..... reach there around 10am... more than half the grps are there warming ups and marking positions..... saw alot of fancy and some realli weird costumes out there.... think ours not so "kua zhang" afterall...GRP 1 started 1st.... watched the 1st 10 teams... couple of them were realli impressive.. we were the 4th team in GRP 2. the crowd was great....better for GRP 2...guess more pple came ard noon... i tot they were supporters of the team performing on stage , that's why they cheered so loudly... our turn...went up....crowd started cheering....felt great... got the 'kick' to reaali do well and put on a good show for such a great crowd... Throughout the dance, crowd was cheering us on... think we impressed them quite abit...with our dramatic dance ,especially when our guys presented the roses to the ladies from outta nowhere...and our partnership....when we sort of striped the ladies tops and in return they showed our boxers to the crowd. Grp 2 teams were better than those in 1.... esp peter's team and the crew from the samsung dance competition. alot of hall 3 residents went to support us...even those graduated and not from dance team...Thanks for all the support pple!!! pple were telling us that we did well...great job!! was happy to hear those comments... think we seriously put in our best effort for the dance~~ totally outta breath after the whole 3 and a half mins..
i seriously tot that we still stand a chance after the whole auditions ended... After the judges gave their words , the results were next... 12 teams were up on the stage...we din make the cut..
felt abit disappointed...but feel that those on stage, most of them were better....their technique were realli there ...congrats to all.....then sth kinda struck me... Peter was saying the judges shouldn't kill our team juz because we weren't HIP HOP enuff...ours were more of a drama dance... but still got hip hop ....pple started saying if it was last year, we would have got in... strangers were coming up to us telling us we did a great job, b4 and after the results were out... even the organisers were saying they like our team....but decision was up to the judges... Judges were looking for totally hip hop stuff. We impressed the crowd but not the judges. Heard last year's funka wasn't like that.... kinda 'dui' ...more disappointment.. ..seriously when u participate in sth...u hope to at least pass the 1st rd...dunno if this is true but one of the organisers said we were close to making it to the next round...oh man...more and more disappointment...we were close? hmmm..... that evening, peiru fwd msged all of us...From Peter: teams from this yr and lat yr funka mania all think that we shld be in the finals happy? not realli....i mean i'm glad that we were good... but then again....the truth stays... i dunno if peter was trying to console us or wat......but nothing can be changed now... the fact is out....everything's over...

To all my dance mates and seniors who had help us polish up!! Great experience for the whole 2 mths.... realli nice to be involve in this kinda stuff....enjoyed every min of practice even if it is tired ...Thanks to all for making it so wonderful!!

50,50

50,50

24 teams.......12 finalists......competing against the elites of Funkamania 2k5..... stats-wise its 50, 50....but it ain't as simple as tossing coin....either u get head or tail... our chances?? more like 25... on current form.... if we were superb, maybe we'll get into the positive 50. i'm not being optimisstic, its da facts....

This whole week for dance, didn't went too well....peter's correct......i'm mentally tired...sianz of the whole dance... yet i hope we get in the finals....impressario or funka.....either one will be nice..
i'm tired of doing the thing agin and again.........my mental's juz that weak. attitude starts to show.....i'm being fuqqed up the past 2 practs...sorry peiru....i know u're trying so hard to get us to do well....i juz mentally can't do it....sorry for all ur effort... i'm juz the lazy slacker who hopes we'll get in finals without working so hard...

today had a break.....din feel too good....shldn't we give it a last run??? although i can't guarantee i'll put in the most effort also... dilemma....tml i hope i'll perform well, the team will perform well... i dun want regrets...so c'mon man....give it all... we've come a long way.... wun give up juz like that.

impressario audi

IMPRESSARIO AUDITION

3 and a half mins of real test....1 and a half months of effort, fun, laughter, sweat and shackness.
worked hard for this one and the coming sat funka audition. Guess we did well... though comments from one of the judge and peter ain't very positive. We gave it all....now can only hope that we'll be in. 7 teams (maybe more) fighting for 3 places . Peter's team no doubt was the best... left 2 places left~~~ wat are our chances?? i dunno....
