Hey SYF Dancers,

7 weeks (approx) to go before SYF Central Judging.
I know that you are putting in a lot of effort for the past months and we really appreciate the efforts everyone has put in. Judging by your progress, I think you're all doing fine.

Don't worry to much alright? just... do your thingy thingy with lots of confidence!Well even if you are not confident... just pretend that you are!! You'll be alright. Just 7 weeks more to go!

Drink lots of water, take sufficient vitamins, and also.. remember, don't overly neglect your academics!! It's almost impossible I know!(been there, done that!).. but you have to keep it up ok?

See you gals soon!

How's the Dance works prep coming along?

Ciaos!

If you want the full resolution picture for printing purposes, please email me and I'll send you the photos.. Note that the full size photos are about 2Mb each!!

BY THE WAY, not all the photos are perfectly IN focus.. it's hard to take photos withOUT flash! I'll do better next time K? GRINS

I'll be uploading more photos of the SYF training "the return of the phantom - Apocalypse" when I get the chance and time to edit them!.. (Photo editing takes a long time!! any volunteers?)

Meanwhile.. Have fun!!!

Cheers

ming hereeeeeee~!!! hahahs, like first time blogging! it's so different from diaryland! but that's beside the point!! hahahhahha! orientationers!! u did a wonderful job!! especially the hip hoppers! u guys were great man!! ahhahas, really hyped up the whole place! :) they really enjoyed it! hey hey heys syfers althou our first performance was messy wessy, that's cos we couldnt hear the music! -_- where got anyone play from soft to loud one?? the stupid volume messed it up! but but but, our second performance was sooo much better! and alot more impressive! like really! hahhas! so i wanna shout out!

GOOD JOB EVERYBODY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D KEEP IT UP! :)

:) EVERYONE CONTINUE TO WORK HARD AND PLAY HARD OK!! WE CAN DO IT! CHANGE THE WORLD, MAKE DANCE A BETTER PLACE, FOR U AND FOR ME AND THE ENTIRE IJ RACE! HAHAHAS! OMG IM SO RETARDED! :)

SYFIES, u guys have to work hard ok! dun take it for granted that we're going to get a gold this time. just cos our last seniors did it , doesnt mean that we will OBVIOUSLY just breeze through it. NOT. TRUE. we have to live and breathe syf for the next couple of months! u guys study too eh? im watching u! 0.0 everyone must be punctual and take the initiative to do ure warm ups properly! it's not to do for fun! it's to prepare u for intensive dancing! and to make u more flexible! our aim is to make everyone do a split by our syf competiton!so that we can score more points!! ms tan and the whole school expects us to get a gold! nothing less! imagine if out of eldds, band and choir we're the only cca that gets a disappointing silver. no no, not acceptable. that's why u have to practise during your free time! and to take the initiative to clear your doubts immediately when u have them! ok?? everyone knows what to do??!! :) i love each and everyone of u! :) muaks! love love *hug hugs* :) take careys everyone! and work hard!!!

Danceworkers! hope u've enjoyed dancing so far! the team 'sizzle' and 'jam' and 'fling' were pretty good last year! 'sizzle' was the champion team in singapore while jam and fling won lots of other prizes like first for cheerleading and collage! danceworks is no laughing matter and definitely no joke. although yes, u'll have a lot of fun preparing for it. dun forget that your ultimate aim is to be first! and NOT to have a good time. if u wanted to just play around, then do not take part in danceworks. since years ago, ij has been setting a very high standard for dancing Hip Hop. And ij dance ensemble is KNOWN by the teams in singapore to have always done well for danceworks.We were always seen as a tough competitor. Now the seniors are passing on this responsibility to you. Don't disappoint us. Please, at least get to the finals. Nothing less. That is the ultimate least qualification that u are allowed to achieve. so, grp leaders, make sure that your group is prepared. Don't forget,your mindset is also very crucial. Although talent is important, it's even more vital if you actually possess a great passion for dance and actually want to constantly improve youself. That means that u actually want to dance better and u are actually willing to work hard for it. Dancing is not about being noticed. It's about putting yourself through the endless and countless trainings just to achieve the best results and to be the best dancer that u can ever be. U have to be aware that it's not an easy feat. Lastly, U have to BELIEVE in yourself. and KNOW that u can make it. WE have faithe in you. good luck. :) U CAN DO IT! :)
Hey guys, ming is gonna end here now! :) study hard, dance hard and play hard! i love all of u okays! :) huuuuuuuugggggggggs! ahhahas! :) take good care of yourself! :) muaks! <3

Hey Girls (SYF dancers),

I must say that I am pretty impressed by the progress today! Mid Jan and you are already halfway through the piece!

I know that the pace of this piece is "slightly" faster than the previous one (heh heh heh! evil grins!) but hey.. though it still looks sort of messy, but hey.. It still managed to impressed me! I can see the whole dance taking shape already and THAT's COOL!

Keep it up k? the school and all your seniors (alumni members) have very high expectations of you girls.. so.... keep up the spirits!

CHEERS!
