Competition is near!

Oh my… i’ve been looking forward to Danceworks since i was in secondary school but was never given the opportunity. This year, i was given the blessings to form a team!

From the start, it’s really tough to finalise the members of our team as i was searching for the best of the best… for the club’s sake. Members were not confirmed and there were many cases that some of them wanted to quit due to commitment problems. As the leader of the team, it’s really tough to handle 7 other members and at the same time persuade and even beg them to remain in the team as i didn’t want last minute back-up from the team itself.  Everyone has their individual problems so the hardest part of being the leader is to put myself in 7 shoes and and being more selfless.

I will always try to cater to the members although i do have my own say [or else being pointed as the leader is pretty pointless] and rights for the team. Right now, i’m happy with the final members and i hope we can perform as a powerful team.

Sometimes i still feel that there’s an ounce of bad luck left in me. Recently, there were so many unpleasant things happened and i was really disappointed after all that i’ve been through. Every-time such things occur, i will try to calm myself down at the same time ignore those things. To me, if i keep thinking of all the negatives… i lose myself professionally.

Also, i was cheated $50 by this guy. If it’s not for him, i could have bought more props for the team! Right now, everyone else is suffering due to budget constraint. I really wish he could return my $50 back so that i can buy necessary things for my team. I really hate the feeling although i know i have contributed almost $100 even after the rest had contribute theirs. Was i cursed again? So far no one in the team tries to at least ask me about my current situation. It shatters me, really. I do have several breakdowns but des anyone knows that? Only Zee asked me about the team and tries to understand my situation. And i really appreciate her for helping me. 

All i want is for all of us to gain good experience. For my personal view, i joined this competition to win no matter what others may think of the entire piece. I really hope by watching the other teams perform, we would be at our best and nail every part of the dance. I hope we make our club proud. =]
