reunion.

THANK YOU NJ PEEPS for putting in so much effort, giving it your all, and not being afraid of having fun and showing everyone what you guys can do! XD i am so proud of each and every one of you! it's been such a great honour and priviledge to be able to work with such wonderful friends like you guys! :D

good job boarding school performers who also put on a very good show, i'm sure! :D

and thanks so so much to those who came to NJ to support us & cipher at the same time! XP i think all you guys, together with the performers, have really helped make a name for MAD. at least more people know who we are now!

while watching you all freestyling and ciphering, i started to reminisce. i remembered what we were all like when we first met, when we first started dancing, and i've seen how all you all have improved and grown throughout the months. you've all got guts, courage, confidence and are daring enough to show people how good you are! *proud of you guys*

i can't say the same for myself, however. there's always something that stops me from going all out and freestyling, or just doing my thing.
there's fear, fear that i'll do a bad job and ruin the name of MAD.
there's worry, that i'll disappoint my friends who have so much faith in me.
there's confusion, what am i doing here when other better dancers should be the ones out there strutting their stuff while i watch?
but there's also hope, that i'll actually be able to get recognition as a dancer, and be able to gain the skills, confidence and courage i yearn for.

the jam last night after our performance was something i learnt a lot from. and it wasn't just about dance skills. there was so much more to learn. especially from watching my friends and other imba dancers showcase their talent.

thank you, Lord, for the experience. even though it wasn't all fun, it was certainly worth the time and effort. :)

but most of all, thank you Lord, for my friends. :) thank you for letting us cross paths and build the strong ties we all have now. they're everything i could have asked for. ^-^

----------------------------

today i witnessed a small, simple reunion between a father and his daughter.

if stopping to watch that moving scene between 2 complete strangers wouldn't result in me being stereotyped as a rude, inconsiderate busybody, i probably would have done just that. i might even have taken a photo.

ah, the simple joys of life. :)

Lord, how did you make everything turn out so perfectly?
