When we dance, we are bonded.

Hi, finally I have the time to update this blog. Had been busying on TDC Production II, and right after that I was busy for my exam. I did very badly for my exam, 84 was all I got for my Maths (P1 & P6). I have already registered for the actual AS exam. Will focus only on Maths for rest of the year.

RE:Production II : Dancing Through Time.

When it was announced, all of us got so excited. We were pondering what styles we would want to join, at the same time imagining how awesome it was for us to join something big and prestigious. Unfortunately, after some time, I felt something died a little inside. I should say, the fire was put in the rain. We were all concentrated in our studies, we started to drag our practices, we were playing games in ECA instead of dancing. When the last week came, none of us were actually readied. After two days of rehearsals, things seemed had gotten better. Eventually we saw the light out of the sole darkness.

Flashing back to those days when we were preparing for RE:Pro, I had to rush to Subang from Cheras, and from Subang back to Cheras. I was literally stressed. My class ended at 3.30pm everyday. I dashed back to my hostel, changed my clothes, grabbed whatever food I could find in my room, and rushed to ECA. I have to sincerely thanks my daddy, for giving me so many rides, while he was actually in the mid of his working hours. I usually reached my hostel at 10pm. It counted as late for me. I had to complete my assignments/homework/laundry/ revision etc. Not mentioning the irregular meal time. I slept at 1am or 2 everyday.

The day came to me when I was finally prepared to drive to Cheras. I didn't trouble my father anymore. As usual, I rushed to Subang after my class. That was the last week we had before RE:Pro. I had to attend every practice and rehearsal. I drove at 125km/h. It might seem insignificant compared to the speed you drive, but I am a P plate driver whom no way I got my license three months longer. I had no choice. I dedicated myself to dancing, so as I will commit myself solely to this production. At the same time, I was having serious sore throat+coughing+headache everyday. I tried all the medicine I had, I finished them, but they didn't work things out for me. But I didn't give a damn shit, like the way I used to treat my health, I didn't care. I was lucky, I'm still sound and save.

That two nights, were the most awesome nights I have ever had this year. Though I performed in MANY productions out there, none of those is similar to this. We arranged/organized/choreographed/bleed/cried/laughed all by ourselves. The night before 29th I cried, touched by the words said by other dancers, at the same time remembering how much I have devoted to dancing - my health, love, family and my spine. I can't describe how wonderful and gorgeous were that two nights, because it simply carved onto my heart, forever. Also, I have to say thank you to all my friends and fans out there, who supported and shouted for me. I miss you all, PM12.

Everyone said this production let us bond with one another and make more friends. I would say it reignited our loves towards each other. To be honest, right after I moved away from Taylor's, the feeling of being left out was so strong. I couldn't get most of the inside jokes, I couldn't understand what was the purpose I risked my life and health. I started to doubt and decided I wouldn't want to attend TDC as much as I do now after Re:Pro. It changed my decision, I am so glad. It was so easy to make me to fall in love with TDC again, and with all the people in there. It was not easy to retreat from them, and I will never do. I must be a fool to think that.

Also, I found my love again. That's the reason why I said this production was nothing similar to any others, yet it was the most fantastic one. I miss you, everyday and every moment.

But you can't hold on to water
It fills you up but never stays
It's only good to wash away today
And you're loving me like water
You're slippin' through my fingers' touch
A natural disaster, love
Bringing on the flood, the flood
Love me like a flood, a flood, bring it on.
