Malaysian Day 2012

July 14, 2012

Hello everyone! I'm back into blogging! Well, not exactly. I'm sorry for the bad "missing-in-action" habits that I'm so used to. It is really hard to keep myself writing all the time!

Someone told me "hey, writing a blog could improve on your writing sills". My subjects in second semester are starting to be more assignment-based, hence I think I might start blogging more to improve on my assignments and gaining back my readers. Killing two birds with one stone? Hopefully :)

Anyway, I became active in Otago Malaysian Student Association (OMSA) here in my University since Siew Lee and I decided to participate in performing for Malam Malaysia this year. I think it was great that we actually stepped out of our comfort to meet more Malaysians here (Make me feel that I am actually doing something here at University LOL) I can't even remember what I did last year besides laying back. I was given an opportunity to be in-charge of Chinese dance performance. Thanks to Amanda, Tracy and Siew Lee for helping me through the performance. We edited the song and choreographed the dance all on our own! I still remember we only did it in a week (or less) and were asked to performed at the Octagon, Dunedin. We freaked out and practised everyday until the performance day.

I did it right and didn't mix up the both of them here! I keep calling Tracy as Amanda and vice versa = _=

There were rocks and glasses on the floor. There were few people who had cuts on their feet so I tried my best to be careful and avoid those rocks.

It supposed to be damn cold but when I was dancing, I can't feel the coldness. I finally understand how ang moh here wear shorts or mini skirt on the cold day.

I had so much fun performing for the first time overseas! The last time I danced was at least 2 years ago. Picking up dancing again just make me feel revived and sometimes I feel like only by using music or dancing can truly express one's feeling. After all, they say Action Speaks Louder Than Words right? :)

PS: We appeared on newspaper published and online as well! Great job people!!
