MKTH part1

Now, MKTH has finally come to an end. I've lost count of how many days i have not place my fingers on the keyboard typing like this. I wanted to blog about my CNY once i came back, but procrastination was all i did. So, the blog died throughout these 2 weeks. Now only i have time to blog about MKTH that i have been very busy with.

This post shall be a short one as i still don't have photos with me, so it'll be just a simple post about my feelings for MKTH and the dearest dance group.

I've hold a post of Head of Publicity for this event and also involved in both Chinese Dance and Drama( singing ). For 2 weeks, i have not get the chance to rest well. The daily routine was all waking up early to plan for publicizing work and class. Then, nap for 30 mins and start practicing dance till midnight and then supper. I've practice the habit of hitting the sack once i stepped into my room after supper. No procrastination to surf net or anything just doze off. Although not too early, sometimes 1am sometimes maybe 2am but not 3am or 4am like previous. So, i consider it as a very minimal improvement. Due to the plumpness of my body, i got criticized by the coach kinda hard. He has a bad mouth, always saying words that hurts. I don't hate him because i know what he said was right. I'm fat, ( no low self-esteem here), i stone while dancing, some friends even suggested me to act a tree behind. ATTN: Malcolm Tang. LOLLLLLL, nah just joking. Of course i wanted to do better cause when i'm having a not so perfect body figure i will not manage to grasp the essential and the details of every dance step. Dancing, especially traditional dance is not as easy as it seems like. Every step has its own hidden meaning, you'll need to dive in the culture to feel it. Every step has to be very accurate and beautiful. The angle of how much you bent your hand or your waist has to be paid attention. Now you see, this is traditional dance. I'm a person who treasures and sees the Chinese culture as something noble and everyone should practice. (Although i don't blog in chinese, it doesn't mean that i look down on this culture, but i'm just trying to improve my command of English.) So, to make sure i can do those steps nicely ( perfect impossible for stones like me), i cut down my consume of rice. I rarely take rice. Since day 1 of sem 2 until now, i've only taken 3 meals of rice. Others was all bread and vico, with some cookies. That's it. But i still don't seemed to slim down, idk why. He still asked me to go slimmer, sometimes i really don't know what to do. Dilemma ! When i don't eat rice, i don't have energy to bounce high as if i'm flying while dancing, to look like i'm bouncing on the cloud. But when i do, i grow fatter. -.- Someone please tell me what to do. >.<

Because of MKTH, i sacrificed a lot. I'm an activist, trying to involve in everything. I like to make sure my schedule has no gap in between, i like to fill up every single gap with activities around me, sometimes i do feel tired but i'm happy. But, it changes since last December when the namelist of EXCO for this MKTH event was announced. It seems like everything has changes. I skipped guitar class, debate class, Dayao Camp, Dayao reunion dinner, Debate Team reunion dinner, Debate Team celebration dinner. I missed a lot of chances to get to know more people and to learn more. I gave up having some private lil corner sipping a cup of Earl Grey doing revision in the night. Spent my day going to other colleges to distribute flyers and practicing. I do face some challenges while arranging and distributing job to the members, it's always like that no matter where you are or which society you are in. It's unavoidable, but anyhow our bond do gets closer. It paid off when i saw the hall flooded by people. I felt touched, like finally managed to deliver my baby safely. I feel secured and comforted. I have been worrying that my publicizing work has not been carried out well enough. Luckily, the response was considered okay, not too bad. After putting in so much effort, finally i get to dance my very first dance on the stage. It was a recognition to me, it gives me the satisfaction.
Everyone sacrifices their sleep doing their respective job, and luckily it turns out to be an awesome event. I feel so proud and happy with the result and it seems like all the sacrifices worth it. Cheers for the countless sleepless nights and the sweat and tear we had throughout the whole event! ♥

I think i gained a lot of fresh, new and crazy experience. Knowing the procedures of HEP in settling these stuffs, hanging banners and buntings in the rain, distributing flyers to the college and got my waffle snatched by the King of Monkey at 10th college, ( there's very few girls in our bureau, and also the imbalance of gender problem is very serious in UM, i alone have to distribute to 3 blocks while 3 guys distribute to one boy's block. What kind of logic is this? -.- ) and then while riding back on motorcycle from 10th college, it rain, and i held an umbrella for the rider and my stupid cheap laokiap umbrella flipped to the other side coz the wind was too strong. can u imagine it? i was all wet and i look like an idiot. Yes like this, except that i'm on a motorcycle and kept shouting "I look so stupid !"




Hmm, how about dance ? We went for supper after performing ytd, and i made everyone talk about their feelings and opinions about this dance group, esp juniors. I spoke really a lot, i think i'm in love with dance group now, i love dancing, i love the people. Back to old times, i would imagine myself dancing pop songs or some street dance, but now if i were to choose again, i will still go for the traditional dance. Because now i know how precious it is. At first, i don't enjoy so much with the warming-up and stretching session. Ppl will be hear the voices of slaughter and murdering, hahahha, just like the cry of dog, but i see improvement in myself, now i seldom scream like before and im reaching the goal: split legs, almost now. Besides, it also trained my stomach muscle and i could have better breathing and energy, power coming out from your body. Not only me, but Kai Wen also realizes about it. It is so obvious when i sing, recalling back old times, i could barely sing s high note as my voice is so unstable but now i could sing at a higher-pitch and also my falsetto can also reach a higher note with more stable voice. This is a very good improvement, i myself was so surprised when i realize about it. And since that day i told myself, you can only sing if you persist with dancing. The vow i made was, these 2 have to be together, can't live without one. How much i love singing, how much i gotta love dancing. Next, what i really love dance group is the people. From strangers to friends and now we're like a family. We would comfort each other and point out each other's mistakes and exchange the knowledge we have and have fun together. Each other plays a diff role and affects each other. Kai Wen aka big sister, Jacky as second sister, Kuang Horng as personal alarm clock, Joan as hiao po, Cecily + Pyin Yea = me, Joshua as yang tak bangun dari tidur lagi, Bill my cry-like-dog partner and Yong Xin as the tutor, which also kena influenced by me dengan teruknya. LMAO. don't ask me why, the secret is only within our group. I feel happy and i enjoy the moments spent with them. ♥




It feels really good when  i can express my heartfelt feelings through writing, it's like finally i'm doing something that i used to do.


Okay, guess that's it for today, not too short after all :p
