hellooo worlddd! wassupppppp =)oh and happy national day singapore!! *heh* right. more like thank you for the public holiday singapore!! :)anywayz.. today was *shock shock horror horror* spent at dance prac! hah most of it was la. Had prac from 9am till about 6 in the evening.. We didnt dance much, just practiced our quick changes and tried to refrain from puking at our reflection while we tried out the extremely odd costumes.. haha i say odd coz... you'll see. :) oh mi goddd i swear! i mean we indians are already blessed with 'em child bearing hips.. the least you'd expect is for the costumes designed to either conceal the fellas or just do their very best to not play them up.. but of course, the only thing the costume does is to bring them right outta their trying-very-hard-to-hide-but-failing-to-succeed- hiding place and put them right unto your doorstep. sigh.. Seriously, i kid NOT. Its so super unflattering. Plus its a quick change so we don't even have time for that extra tuck which might actually work a miracle. well now i can only hope that with the amount of goo on my face, you'd either a) not recognize meb) HOPEFULLY think the skinny, pretty one is me, since you cant really tell with all that 'drawing' on our faces, who's who!c) sit so far away, i look tiny, no matter what angle i turn. just like when you look at cars from the 60th floor of Swiss Hotel =)So yeah, at least you know what to expect. and where to sit ;)haha for those who have no idea what i'm going on about, and that'll be really dumb coz thats all i've been going on about for the past i don't know, month? i'm performing, together with another 20 odd people in Victoria Theatre next weekend! (18/19 August). Its at 7.30pm and its an oddissi based repertoire. Well oddissi is actually a really gorgeous, graceful style of classical indian dance and art lovers should give this a go. Having said that, look at everyone BUT ME and you will leave the theatre still loving the artform =) haha ask me for details if ya're really interested aight!so much for my little publicity stunt, haha just helping tfa a lil laa.. oh yes tickets are donation based so have i said the magic word already? and NO, that does not mean its free! *groan* singaporeans just do not know how to appreciate such practices. When we say 'pay what you want' they immediately exclaim 'Oh that means free!'. Excuse me, We're a charitable organization not a so-rich-we-don't-need-your-money organization. So please, donate generously. If you can. If you really can't, just pay from your heart. At the end of the day, its not a money driven event. We believe in art, jus for the love of it. We hope to touch even the coldest of hearts, and bring a tear to them, with the simplicity and sincerity in which we go about our events. It has happened before, and if you give us a chance, it can happen again =)ok enough preaching about my affliation.. lets see.. so today i came back from dance and had to go straight into my work, coz i had a shit load to finish by tomorrow morning.. and thank god, i managed to. Phew. Yesterday night i finally met the sholana and the ragima! its been so long since i'd seen sho! We had our yindian food at casurina and then went to sho's house where she showed us all her bloody good bargains! that girl can really smell a good deal anywhere! sigh, i'm the kind who will buy something and then a week later find that exact same thing on some massive sale. yeah, luck. guess some of us really don't have it. *sulk*alrite i think i've gone on about wayyyy too much.. my bed and comforter are calling out to me, and i've never been one who could resist 'em, so good nite folks!muacks! one more day to the weekend, you can do it! ;)
The heart has its reasons which reason knows not of..
