Embarrassing omg... Sis and I were waiting at the studio for the others and since it was just us, we began taking group selfies and I wanted to take a full body shot at the mirror. I was aligning the mirror lines horizontally and took a picture before I heard something at the door, and turned. Aarun was standing outside the door and grinning and I had to ask him to come in. *covers face*
He obviously knew what was going on.
So, practice went on as usual, and instead of being a vegetable during practice (because I only have 1 dance out of 3), I decided to be helpful today and be the pc girl. Since I'm now a JCS (Japanese Cultural Society) member, freshly registered this week~ Though JCS members were not very assisting during registration... But whatever.
Talking about clubs, I also joined yoga and swimming! I have some friends in both clubs already so it'll be OK~ Initially I wanted to join Emina (anime club) as well, but they were not open for registration, although they had a booth. They advised me to either join JCS or Emina only cuz their schedules often clash, but I insisted on joining both. Apparently they have some hate thing going on with each other...
Today was a day filled with a lot of laughter. They had practice for a 6 person dance, which I wasn't in, and there was this guy Ken that just isn't made for dancing. His movements are so awkward that I wanted to laugh. Not in a bad way though. It was entertaining to watch him do his best and having Aarun and Miranda teach him. I swear, Aarun is so patient. So entertaining to watch him teach.
The 4 of us (Aarun, Eli, sis and I) stayed back for an hour plus to practice more cuz we don't have any more classes. At least we have a studio with mirrors to practice instead of doing it in one of the classrooms and having to push tables and chairs to the back. But unfortunately the mirrors aren't big pieces of mirrors; there are individual vertical mirrors hanging next to each other so you can't really see yourself fully without being distorted. We gotta make do with what have!
This was last week~
Today Aarun was very excited cuz he found a dance that he really liked - a modern version of the Yosakoi dance. It is a traditional dance, but there is a fun and wacky version of it. It's so catchy! Miume and Tempura Kidz are in there as well. He kept dancing to it lol. I was at the pc and he suddenly approached me, "Fion, you don't have dance(s), so sien (bored). Come I teach you Yosakoi." You just want to collect people to join your Yosakoi dance right. XD
But it's OK, I like it. :3 So the 4 of us stood in a line and Aarun taught us the first few steps and we proceeded from there. I have to say it's quite effective for us to all dance together. The process is faster too. I enjoyed it a lot! It's so nice to finally be able to be part of a dance team once again. T.T I miss dancing... and I'm glad I am able to still do it in uni. It's such a blessing. ^·^
All club activities start next week so good luck to me! More time management!
It's my 4th week in uni now and I couldn't be happier. Thank you to all the people that helped me settle in and ate with me during my first weeks, my classmates I'm slowly warming up to, and also nice seniors. T.T I love my assignments somehow - it's not hard but it's a lot of work, and I get to dance as well. Not to mention the seniors feel like big brothers - I've always wanted one.
Currently I'm also a crew member for MMU Career Fair 2015 so do come!! Show some support~ It's on 6 & 7 January, just in case you want to come. It's a shockingly different experience cuz I've never volunteered or even experienced a lot of fairs so I basically don't know anything. But since I'm a crew member now, I have to voice my suggestions and opinions. I honestly am not used to it... especially since the others in my division are seniors. No one cares who you are; it doesn't matter whether you're ultra fresh in uni or a last sem student, you get treated the same and the expectations are also the same. Try your best, me!
My first AGM!
I have to get used to this so I graduate with some useful skills instead of being a normal student during my duration in uni and barely doing things other than assignments and hanging out with friends. It's hard, but I want to come out of my shell and not be the anti-social me anymore... I want to do something for myself.
