B4 i go into e main content, allow me to sidetrack a little..
This is in response to the 'super-duper incredibly encouraging' words left in the previous post on planting.
Thank u all my frens for being so ever confident of my failure in planting! '_' ||| Hmmph!p.s: ok, fine.. i admit tt i haven started planting at all. But.. tt doesnt mean tt i wont succeed ultimately! Slow n steady mah.. :)
~DUCK GOES FOR Her 1ST STREET JAZZ LESSON~Yes! I went for my very 1st Street Jazz lesson today at Tampines Central CC. Guess wat? I had stomachache just b4 i went into e dance studio. NO la.. i'm nt nervous over e lesson or meeting new ppl. I simply ate too much.. i ate a bowl of porridge 10 mins b4 my lesson commerced. Muahahha...
Anw.. i registered for this course alone. I was so ready to meet new ppl.. meeting new dancemates sounded v exciting for me. But.. it was so disappointing. 1stly, there r no guys in my class (oops.. did i say tt aloud?!!) muahha.. no la.. e impt point is.. i din make any new frens aft e whole lesson. B cos.. all of them had their own kakees n had their own cliques ( think they took up other dance courses tgt b4). I hve this "lets be frens" look on my face. But, no one dared to approach me. Haahahaa.. or was it tt i've danced so well tt they became jealous of my natural talent? Sigh... sometimes its rlly nt easy being so outstanding. MUAHAHAHA.. no la.. from their appearance, i can tell tt most of them r younger than me. Perhaps they haven realised tt its a courtesy or being considerate to make an effort to befriend new ppl outside ya clique. I'm guilty of doin tt myself sometimes. But, its rlly nice n totful if u can make someone new to the group feel more at ease by befriending tt person. So tt, he/she wont feel so lonely or left out. Its a skill. I encountered alot of such situations whereby ppl dun bother to make an effort to do so. Trust me.. little gestures do matter. No harm smiling more if u can make someone feel more comfortable rite? :D
No worries.. i dun feel bitter abt it. Doesnt bother me much. Most imptly, i like my instructor. But, I've forgotten her name. !!! Haha.. she is nice n alwys carries a smiley face :) She tries to ensure tt all of us (esp beginners) can follow e dance steps well. I think her motto is "NO ONE GETS LEFT BEHIND". Tt suites me perfectly.
I had some regrets when we were doin some stretching n tip-toe exercises. I felt like an overweight ballerina. Rlly.. i mean lifting up my legs, pointing my toes... i cld imagine myself squeezing into e pink ballet dress u know. muahahah.. but, its ok. I rlly enjoyed the dance. E pace was nt too fast n e instructor keeps lookin at me. hee.. perhaps she saw some potential in me!
I jus came back fr my lesson. N i told myself: i shd start tip-toeing whenever i walk. So, if u c someone tip-toeing in fast short steps (as if she is floating in e air). Do not panic. Tts me!
Say "hi" to me ok :) I will try nt to tip-toe ard when i cross e road. Its quite dangerous.. n i mite even scare e hell out of some poor drivers.

I strongly believe tt..
With my tough trainings..
One day..
i will be like ...
DUNCAN.
