Dance
[ 8:28 pm ] It's been a rather busy week for me ... and finally, I get to sit down here and unwind ... I am so tired. Not the emotional tired, but physically tired. I am drained! Feeling a little lazy, so I'll just summarise. Parting. We sent Eric and Doreen off last Tuesday night. I've not sent anyone that I care about, off to anywhere before, so it was a bittersweet moment for me. I am actually happy and excited for the both of them relocating to London ... well, it's only for 2 years, so that doesn't really feel long. I plan to save up enough for a visit hopefully sometime next year, don't think I'll be able to make it this year. We'll see how that turns out. Steaming. I've been craving ... ok, maybe not craving, ummm ... longing for a steamboat dinner for a while now, so it was good that Amelia suggested we have steamboat this coming Thursday since she was thinking of the same thing. I extended the invite to Kanmani as well. She's good and free entertainment anyways :P New friends. The girls (Doreen's best friends) are having a birthday dinner/outing for Chir Yuen and Yuen Lai this coming Saturday. I was pleasantly surprised to get the invitation ... I said I'll go, so I confirmed my attendance with them. Quite a nice bunch of people to hang around with. Can't believe they've been sticking together since primary 1. That's 20 over years man. Now, that's friendship. I'm still a little uncomfortable around them, some are very easy to warm up to while some needs some working on, though I won't mention who. All in all, I'm just hope to build something out of this. Newer friends. David's bachelor party is ... this Saturday night as well. Yes, it's a clash. Honestly, I want to go for both ... I hate having to choose. As much as I REALLY want to go for the birthday dinner with a bunch of lovely girls, I think I'll have to settle for a bachelor night dinner with a bunch of guys -_- *sigh* Well, you only marry once while birthdays are every year ... now, I need to come up with a really tactful way of telling them I can't make it now. Haih ... Two left feet. We had dance lessons for David and Erin's wedding over her place earlier in the afternoon (I just got back from there). Dancing, huh? Not something I'd do often ... or at all. But I guess when your friend is getting married, you just gotta do what you gotta do. So, how did it went? I think both Yee See and I aren't really comfortable with each other yet ... you can tell, heck I can tell I'm not comfortable, duh. But, we got better later on :) She's a sweet girl around my height ... you could stare her straight at eye level, that's how tall she is. Either that or I'm short. Anyways, it was embarrassing la. The rest of the couples had chemistry since they are all from the same church and knew each other for a long time ... while the both of us hardly knew each other and not from the same circle of friends. It was awkward at best ... haha. The dance wasn't that difficult, simple box step with twirls here and there ... it's having to move together that we're having problems with. We're not suppose to look at the floor while we dance ... 'coz that looks silly :P I'm hoping with the next few practices perhaps the both of us will loosen up a little. But we got the hang of it. I'm still not comfortable having to hold someone ... uhhh ... nmind. David you owe me! This is really out of my comfort zone. Encouraged. I've been really critical of my guitar playing for a while now, always trying to improve myself as I've faced criticisms over how I play from certain quarters over the past year. While some were out of the goodness of their heart and some out of pure fun (mean). I do get discouraged some days when what I felt was good just weren't up to 'their' standards. Point to take note, not 'their' standards that I should be concerned with, so as long I give my best to God, that's all that matters. Anyways, today was different. I thought my playing was lackluster ... but I guess I was wrong and focused too much on getting things right. I was deeply encouraged with the compliments from a few people that I looked up to and whom I know were very particular musicians, and that boosted the confidence a little :P And these were some of the people that I kena bamboo from before. Consistency is great. So that's my short update, looking forward to another packed week. 0 comments Archives nothing |
