Busy Weekend

This weekend was the one with Good-Fri, so i had a long weekend. It was really busy and enjoyable. Thanx so much Sam for everything u organized. Well, i think Zhenyu/Sam mentioned tt we are getting old, hence less happening? Hmmm, i think it may be true but then less happening doesnt mean less enjoyable? i Still kinda enjoyed myself, the quietness, the clamness and most of all, the chance to get away from work.... (partially only la, in the end still end up working for a short while).

Juz returned from PA- DIY not long ago, wah piang the pracitice is really shiong.. shall continue this type of prac till we get back the stamina & skill. Then again, i wish tt the ppl there can work on their showmanship leh... but all these push back till the opportunity is right ba.... Ok, tml still gotta work so i shall stop blogging le, v tired..

But i still wish to say: This weekend was an enjoyable one for me..... Both the fri, sat & sun...
Thank you frenz out there, u all are really great!!!!

Audit Peak...

Ha, guess what's the time now? N i just reached home, finished bathing... didnt feel like sleeping anyway abt 3 hrs later i gotta wake up go work again... This is life of an auditor la.... Though i not everyday work till this late but yup, this is the type of life i'll have to live with for the next few years....=(

So quiet at this moment, the wind breezes pass my room, im listening to my blog song... Everything seems so peaceful... Its really nice, too bad it gonna end in 3 hrs where i gotta work again, and the working life starts once again, with no rest for ppl till u drop sick.. Which i really saw so many of my colleagues take sick leave and try to siam the peak. Anyway, its no use la, the best is to use Reservist to siam the peak... Confirmed can one, cos private sector dun dare to go against government anyway... =p

Life's hard but then again, cos i work so late, i return home late, i witness the quietness and peace of the midnight... So cold, i yearn for a hug....

Late night

ICONS - Look back

Finally finished this performance after 6 mths.. Phew.... Cant imagine how i went thru tt.
It was a good experience, made me looked clearly at professional artists, the way they work, their feelings, attitude, stuborness towards arts, their vision and ideals etc. It was much like Lao Jiu back in 2005 but it was more, cos this time my role was more than tt in Lao Jiu so i was expected to turn up for more practices, it was 5-6 days a week lor... Damn freaking shiong, after work muz go for practices, and to think tt i dislocated my elbow then, which eventually resulted me in not able to turn up for practices. Then my role was taken over by Andy Cai (of Soul Fusion). But this one really muz hand it to him, he does the steps so much better than me.... =)

Anyway, let's talk abt the experience this time. This let me witness the artisitic attitude of professional artists with 100% artistic vision and no regards of audience. This was much more than TTP's Lao Jiu, cos Lao Jiu was a musical, hence it cared abt the audience, this time this performance totally bo chap the audience. I think Art is really something ppl give their lives to?
The ppl i work with are totally professional from head to toe and tt they were so different from DIY ppl. But then, becos everyone of them is so zai, tt certain attitude hinders us from dancing together. The Zhen Qi Du was poor, really poor.

This experience really made me a better person, in terms of experience, technique, mental strength and lastly..... Enlightment abt the arena of Dance (at least in Singapore). Its an experience being able to dance with members from Soul Fusion, Platinum, students & even teachers from La Selle, NAFA... I was totally immersed into another world, of cos me being the lousiest... But then, i saw the other side of the world in Singapore.... Enlighement was what i gained most out of this performance and lengthy rehearsal duration of 6 mths.

Enlightment:
Artists can do anything, willing to pay any price juz to do the things they want.
Artists work super duper hard, physically, mentally and intellectually....
Amidst the dance, many a times artists forget why they are dancing, and what they are dancing for....
Life is short, especially more so for Dance Artistes.
The apprentices/ protege of Mr Low dunno how Lucky & fortunate they really are. Unfortunate that they nv in the least bit realize/unleash their potential to advance in the careers...

Towards the end of the perf, i was really happy, quite happy tt i went thru the tough times with these dancers, there was really a feeling of relief & happiness. Whatsmore, being in Drama Centre again brings me memories of the past in 2005 when Lao Jiu was screened. Ironically, back then i was injured too, by Yongxuan, haha a kick in the ribcage. Then this time, a dislocated elbow. Seems like me and Drama Centre no fate..... Haizz.....=p

After all these, i had a clearer look at the Singapore Dance arena, oso know the direction tt DIY is heading/ should be heading.. I will always try my best to assist Lao Shi now tt i understand even clearer e rationale for his ideals/ artistic vision etc.

If any DIY members chance upon my blog and read this entry, please offer your assistance (in any way) to me.... I believe tt DIY really needs you all to be able to make it, otherwise will really CMI one....
As long as some1 is willing to help, Im really appreciative...

How many ppl will offer their assistance to DIY i wonder?
When will DIY make it? DIY is need of committed dancers......

Mixed Feelings....

Zhongyi with Dance
