dance bonds people
This past Monday, I'd met with three of my friends, which we knew each others through dance.
The first person i have met is Jasmine, who is my 'daughter' too. We know each other genuinely through family. We use to have family system during our college(hostel) life; for example the first year will be the sons and daughters, then the second year will be the moms and dads, followed by third year will be the grandpas and grandmas, fourth year will be the great grandpas and great grandmas and so forth. Initially she impressed me because she is one of the performing art(dance) faculty students; whereby she will be my friend, xiao por's junior. Yet we become closer as she joins CC Dance Club, where i'm also one of the members. As we have dance practices for Feseni and also dance competition at Melacca. The relationship between us mostly is bonded through dance rather than family i think.
The second person i have met is Kai Li, where we know each other through PTUM performance/dance bureau. We have a hard time for the practices, just because the practice is stiff. It's not for play play only. In this bureau, the participants are either pro in dance or totally idiot in dance. But no matter how, the participants would finally able to dance gracefully in the performance. The tough practice which is the key that have trained us to be skilled and expert. Because of the hardships we have been through, the relationship of the whole group of people get very well. And my dance skill has improved a lot from then on. Kai Li and I befriend after all. Kai Li, thank for keeping the certificate for me. And i still remembered the chocolate that you have presented me. *wink*
The third yet last person in the day i have met is Xiao Wei, also we know each others through PTUM dance bureau and likewise, she is the member of CC Dance Club too. What a coincidence. Xiao Wei is from performing art(drama) faculty who like to dance so much. She is a wonderful and unique girl.
An ordinary day, i have met three persons, where we are interelated with one thing, i.e. dance. Dance bonds us together. I heart dance so much.

Indian classical dance
This post i have delayed it for so long, it's about my ko-k, indian classical dance. It's very fun to attend the class, and learn something different which is out of our academy. Although we have learned not much, but most of us really enjoy the moment well. Few days before the Ko-K day, we had extended the time for our practice from Monday night 10 something, Tuesday night 11 something 'till Wednesday night 12 o'clock. So on Thursday noon, we had to set up everything including our costume, make-up, headgear, accessories before we were heading to the stage. So, let's the photos do the talking:
After the make-up, dressed up and the accessories, i turned into an indian dancer. The eye liner was thick and ugly and looked so artificial. I looked so fierce. Just because we were rushing out of time, the guy had to be fast to finish up about 30+ performers' eye liner. Do you notice the foundation on my face, suddenly i looked tan. Because the foundation which is suitable for darker skin.
Actually there are seven types of indian classical dance, but we just performed five types, there were Kuchipudi, Kathak, Mohiniaattam, Bharatanatyam and Odissi. The other two are Kathakali and Manipuri. We were divided into five groups and each group performed each type in a medley which consisted of five different music. First to come was Kuchipudi.
Even kingston also crave for indian dance, see he becomes an indian with a red dot(what is that called? Anyone wish to tell me?) on his forehead and he is ready to perform.

Secondly, Kathak.
Followed by Mohiniaattam. We looked so royal from top to toe.
Next was Bharatanatyam.
Then we had Odissi.
Finale with our poses of the dance. We had to squeeze so that all of us can get into the lens.
