I forgot what date it was :P
Todayy we cooked thai food.
YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
it was a real happy day keeping the global Asian culture alive.
We did all these kind of sauces. But my fav was the sweet and sour one...
AND THE PAPAYA DISH WITH PEANUTS AND THE TANGY SWEET AND SOUR SAUCE. (called som tum)
amazinggggggggg
I can say that Aunty Maria handled it extremely well, making sure that everyone had a chance to do pai thai :) :) :) and those little ones. stirring the soup is a little tough. had to carrrrry them up.
it was cool but i felt that benjee was a little lost. haha. all i know he was pretty happy to see all that food and eat it ;P haha.
IT WAS A VERY VERY YUMMY FUN DAY
like it love it EAT IT

Dance - before i go Bali-ing
250809
Today I feel energised! is it because i did those 13 sun salutations? or is it my mind playing tricks on me? HMMMMMM
anyway, I feel like i did well, we warmed up quickly and I did a full run on the whole thing. From the beginning, to the gasps, the twirl up and bellow, and the floating in the ocean bit, FROM THE ABUNDANCE OF MY HEART MY MOUTH WILL SPEAK, the sequence left and right, the flip, bounce over to katharine, bellow again, frenzy slowdown to end position and roll over.
honestly, you won't get what this is unless u're there. The point is, I did everything IN THE MOMENT, meaning I was focused and I did some flips quite well and was feeling it.
just a few things.
1. frenzy too emotional
2. close my mouth when in flotation mode
3. remember changed beginning position
4. still work on sequence
TONIGHT IS AND WAS A GOOD GOOD NIGHT.
;)

Dance - Blister stickers
240809
Had to use blister stickers to control the pain of the blister. thought they would work but who knew you can't do spins on them? haha. for walking they work though. TRY IT.
Anyway, I went early to warm up and to try to work on the things I couldn't do. Luckily, I had more energy today and worked it! I honestly did my best and produced my best. unfortunately, she also changed the route because it just wasn't working out. :P
Now we just don't grab my leg, we make it burst out and suddenly shrink in with knee on floor and that pushes out with the momentum that takes me into the dead ballerina twirl. Easier and do-able. thank you katharine :) I did it and PAIN. ouch. HEEL? oh no. my skin tore off from the previous blister i had. no pics, its gory. and after awhile I realise that there is blood. run for wallet to get plaster. I'm lucky i carry those around.
We did more, I found my center by doing more exercises she gave, and she said that the quality of those moves i have been showing her was definitely different form the ones before. good and better :) *BEAMING* so we incorporate it into the piece.
We sit down to determine the sequence of the piece because i'm going away soon and she is so.....whoa. its kinda hard.
I work on my mini somersault and oops. the time flies.
class is over. see you tomorow with my leg.
;)

Dance - getting another bubble
230809
Today was a long day for me. I had THOSE problems, the pfs had an activity which tired me out and at 2:15 or roughly around that time I went over to dance.
Katharine came in saying she was blank because she left her notes at home. We started the day reading bible verses and praying. :) i thought the day would be good.
We tried out a little routine something with the theme of star jumping but with a twist and i did it with much energy. sad to say it didn't last.
I tried doing the whole routine as it was. The hit the hand, and we modified the 2nd one bent all the way to the left with my right arm all over the other side, and the 1st had a tiptoe. My coming up still wasn't satisfactory so i did it again and again.
Basically, my energy level was so low I spent most of it flinging my body aimlessly around. I didn't do well at all, AT ALL. and I made myself another blister which scrunches up my skin. UGH.
hope tomorrow will be better *sigh*

Dance - Afhan is a-missing
180809
Afhan is busy setting up the sound system for the Prime Minister for the bi-elections goin on. good luck Afhan!
Today was an interesting day. We work on my little "prayer" bit.
We modify it and its getting to be actually really cool.
here it is in short. I use that impulse feeling to hit my left arm and let it fly up, hit again but this time my left leg comes up as my right arm is extended out. The leg pushes down for me to twirl with my right leg flung behind and at the end of the twirl I catch my leg and fall. After the fall, I pick myself up with what looks like a break-dance move and twirl around like a dead ballerina on a pole, arms drop limp and a fast flip to the back.
I do it. and i do it wrong. but then again, practice makes perfect.
1st thing, the twirl is wrong. I do it and suddenly out of nowhere, i seem to get it. my leg does a full turn before suddenly my body twists and grabs my leg. O. its just like ballet, it looks like one things, but doing it is another. I master! wheeeeeeeeeee. next, I gotta really GRAB my leg, my arms which are flung up need to be sudden. from up to grabbing leg. no slowly floating down to get my leg. SUDDEN. my landing. ha ha ha ha. I'd like to say that I listen to my body, and when gravity pulls it down. don't i follow? well, yes. I do. the problem is, my arms are still grabbing onto my legs. so what do i do? I fall flat on my face and now my lip is bleeding. *sigh* the blood shed for this dance. haha. next, the lift used to carry out the break-dance move i need to work on. definitely. and the ballerina twirl? all i need to do is pull up at the center. And after noticing how easy it is to do if i just work on it a little, it happens. again the flip needs to be sudden and the arms straight.
We do a total run thru from the beginning and we call it a day. :)
I tell you. practice makes perfect
ciao
