DREAMS ALL OVER AGAIN

Is mindfulness about thinking about stuffs that I have chosen so conveniently and instinctively to ignore whenever a small trigger of that thought comes into my head? I can hear the angel and devil speaking. The angel is trying to follow up with that thought process but the devil is blocking it so effortlessly like he has done it umpteen times. My dream isn't about being a dance teacher, it is about being able to dance well. To fit that word well, I have chosen to undergo training at NAFA. To make it more socially acceptable,  I've conditioned it, beautify it, altered it such that it becomes: I want to go NAFA because I want to become a better dance teacher. Any dance job is a joy to me. I guess teaching is also my strength as I enjoy simplifying things, solving seemingly impossible problems. Bu the rawest, truest part of my dream is, I want to be a good dancer, to be acknowledged as one even among other trained dancers. I can't possibly just settle for the less yet a more comfortable position now of not pursuing what i've been fighting for the whole time, these reasons that made me choose the dance path, so that I would still be in my comfort zone and miss all the opportunities ahead. There will be opportunities ahead but who promises them to be good? You may work very hard but never ever make the cut in the professional world. All the comfort, status as a dance instructor that I've carried thus far and of course worked hard for, how irresistible it is to just give up a dream full of uncertainties. My only valid argument fighting in my mind now: I'm only 19, do I want to stuck with this for the rest of my life? My life is plain and my adventure have not even started. I do not even have much stories to tell. I want to go for my dreams, even if it leads to nothing ultimately, I can say that I have lived my life to the fullest, I have a story to tell.

2 months + post breakup

 It's crazy that time just keeps passing. I realise that we don't really share that much memories together and when I keep replaying and replaying, the recorder runs through very quickly. There's only so 'much' experiences that we shared together. We were together for almost 3 months... and now we're separated for almost the duration of us being together. And it's crazy that time is going to keep passing and the time spent being away from you would start becoming longer and longer compared to the time that we had. Recently I'm into this sadness. Not the great depression but just deep, but not heavy, sadness. To pinpoint it exactly, I miss you. I'm not sure what I'm missing. The memory of us or you. I am no longer extremely curious about how are you or how's your life, but many things still remind me of you non stop day to day and instead of sadness... where it's something I lost, it's ... longing for something I can never have. I have...

These few days have been having really bad insomnia, lika now.. and the medicines i already took twice the dosage doesnt work :( Monday: Ronnie's hiphop beg, mega love his style and groove and just rockin' the basics. Tuesday: clarice's lyrical jazz beg and gin's hiphop intermediate. There is a reason why i stir away from contemporary/ lyrical jazz for quite awhile despite being crazily passionate just months ago... To be honest, it's due to me leaving Indancity. From being an almost untrained contemp dancer, steppng out of my comfort zone and pushing myself hard every class, how each time my body just cant get used to the intensity of the class but i told myself only through pain i will grow, till i can comfortaby do double pirouettes, fall down in a routine, and keep trying till i get it no matter how dumb i may look at the start, i told myself i just have to try double, triple the effort and i wouldnt be that far away too. Looking forward to indancity before ...

Introducing punk: ARE YOU A PUNK OR A POSER? I call punk a set of beliefs which guides your way of life, more than the clothing you wear. The word punk originates from music, and it is defined by its lyrics and attitude. As punks usually have a more deviant attitude, it shows in their dressing style as well. Popular culture comes in: some celebrity picks it up and turns it into a trend, causing everyone to follow that certain blue hair. These people, are then called posers because they are trying to be cool by playing punk. Proud to say, I'm both a punk and a poser. Punk rock music follower? Checked. Give credits to a rock band man instead of synchronised digital wavelengths yo. They may say the world of music is one but a good band still sets the bar. They are the kind of music you wanna rock your head to in a party. Poser? Yes I do dress a certain way to achieve a certain vibe but I gotta say that's 90% from my attitude. After scanning a whole range of nude, paste...
