I started dancing when I am in Kindergarden 2. The first performance was for my preschool graduation night. I guess everyone needs.Thinking about it, I am so old now.

I still can remember the costume: Pink zipped top with a small apple on it and a black mini skort. My mum always nag at me, because she thinks the pink top was too small for me.

I had my first leotard when I was 7. As a kid, I always wonder why my leotard looked exactly the same as my swimsuit. even now I still wonder why. I often have the urge to go swimming with my leotard. Of course I did not do it. Without saying, my mum was again complaining about the low quality of the leotard and the dancing shoes which causing her to keep spending her money to buy a new one when the old one worn out.




Anyway, I am in Chinese Dance and that was the reason why I was super flexible when I was Primary School.

I took part in 3 Singapore Youth Festivals, which known as SYF throughout my ten years of dancing. My first time is when I was in Primary Three. I had the privilege to dance in a special position, because of my flexibility. My instructor likes me. I had to kick my leg while standing onto a huge box. Since young, I am a slow learner, always one beat slower than my friends. And yes, I was that little tiny frog. I hate this costume because it was so troublesome for me in the toilet. Somehow it looks rather cute on me. You got to agree with me, dude. That year, our hard effort paid us off. We got Gold and get ourselves invited to Chinese Garden to perform during Mid Autumn Festival in Chinese Garden.




Compassvale Primary School celebrated their 10th anniversary when I was in Primary Four. A concert was held at Victoria Concert Hall named "In Unison" to corroborate that event. Since then, Victoria Concert Hall left a scary impression with their old-fashioned and ancient facilities. The second time I went back there was when I was in Secondary School for the same reason.




Sorry, I looked fucked up here with my ugly spectacle and center parting. I think this is the part of my life when grass start to grow in my brain. Can you imagine how ugly I was? Anyway, I was able to hold my leg up in that way when I was young. Cool shit. I can't even touch my toes now. It really seems to look like I really train very hard. The first picture on the right is trying to show off my dope-est calf. You will fly when you received a kick from me. Kidding. Since when I am so strong. Stop staring at my ugly photos. Move on. Don't judge please. ):




One of my favorite costumes was the peacock costume. (The orange top and skirt). Most probably, I was attracted by the colourful flower pattern. My fingers was well-trained to put the "Number 3" sign. My poor fingers were aching like mad after dance.

I really enjoyed dance when I was Primary School. Dressing in different costumes, dancing in different types of dance and everyday 'show off' to my friends and classmates how flexible I am. You know lah, kids always love to show off. I loved when people know I am a dancer.

I made a lot of friends though dancing, especially in Secondary School. Most all my girls are dancers (Ding Que, Queeny, Jueween and Joey). And I know Kai Lin and Yu Ling through Ding Que. I don't really have many photos of me dancing during Secondary School. Somemore, I was ugly in the photos. So I decided not to put any ugly photos here. In case halo effect took place. As I mentioned earlier, I took part in 3 SYF competitions, one in Primary School, so another two would be in Secondary School. CVSS Dance got 'Gold with Honour' in 2009, and 'Gold' in 2012. I have to admit that I am not a good dancer in Secondary School. My instructor always 'targetted' me because she knew I am a lazy dancer. Only in Secondary Three and Four, I started to get serious over dance. I get angry when I can't get a simple step done correctly. This is the most 'memorable' sentence from my instructor, "She looks like a dancer, but she doesn't dance like a dancer."

I decided to give up on dancing after much consideration. I don't think I can commit myself in dance anymore. I saw all other dancers are so talented in dancing while I am so not talented. Furthermore, I am a lazy dancer. I don't want to be a burden to them. They dance so well. Their enthusiatism make me to realise that I don't really love dance a lot. They look forward to dance, they train everyday, THEY JUST CAN'T WAIT TO HAVE DANCE. But I am so different from them. I CAN'T WAIT DANCE TO BE OVER. How I can dance well when I have this mentality? I really appreciate all the people who encouraged me to dance again. I guess I need to disappoint you people. I am sorry. Please forgive me. I always very grateful to have the chance to be a part of TPDE. It is a honour to join those great dancers to dance.

"You can lost your steps in dancing, but never lost the passion to catch up the steps."

For me, it is a gone case. I lost both.
