Light Up Life - Day 1

Taken during stage rehearsal. That's me, Emily & Yi Xian. Shall post more backstage pics asap!

Stage rehearsal was the same day as the performance.
Tiring. Stress. Mental illness. Adrenaline rush high. u name it.

Stage rehearsal was from 6.30 am to 1 pm. Then we had to reach the stadium before 4.30 pm. So, we practically had about 3 hours interval to eat, bath, get your hair done, make up and sleep [that is, if u got the time]. Wheet! I managed to take a nap, which most of my friends did not.

First night performance is okie okie, dont get me wrong, it was GOOD, but not the best. The props for Annie were so so messy. Heck! It was so dark on stage when we were moving the props and LUCKILY [seriously luckily] no one fell down & nth broke!

And i did mistake [wrong arm, wrong leg] for 'You Raise Me Up', the mistake was so so obvious. *blush* Then, i wasn't warm enough, so kinda wobbly on stage. The dance 'You Raise Me Up' seems to end so so soon tonight, like in a split second, okay im exaggerating, but it's really fast that we felt like we havent even started dancing it yet

Am so so hoping tomorrow gonna be much better than tonight, hold, a BLAST!
*pray hard*

Faith and Confidence

Faith and confidence is all i need.

Faith gives you confidence and courage. With faith, you can move a mountain; and I can dance.

Confidence is sth that can be made. Confidence is sth you believe possible. God made you, give you what you need. So I have to stop worrying and put ALL my moves and pirouettes onto HIM. His angels will guide me.

A righteous man's prayer is powerful and effective. Righteous is pure and just. We are not, but we are trying. As Christian, we hope to be righteous, so our prayer is powerful. You pray for good performance, and stop nervous. It will happen. God made you. He wouldn't let you dance without steps. He wouldn't let you go unprotected. Let God works the magic !

Bible says the lilies and birds, they don't worry about losing feathers or petals. So God wouldn't let you down. Stop worrying and have this lil faith that He is going to make things right for you.

Very early in the morning, while it was still dark, Jesus got up, left the house and went off to a solitary place, where he prayed. - Mark 1:35

"God, I trust You to work the magic tomorrow night and the day after tomorrow. Let the dancers shine like superstars on stage. Let it be a blast. and may You Jesus, rock the dance floor with us. Amen."

I'm so excited and happy about the whole thing, a tad nervous though. okay, i gotta run and grab my pillows to bed. Gotta wake up at 5.30am for Stage Rehearsal tmr morning. wish me luck.!

9 hours long

It has been a long day for me. Ballet from 12 noon to 9pm. Practiced Total Eclipse of My Heart, Colours of The Wind, You Raise Me Up and Annie. By the end of the day, my legs and arms were aching [more to come], i hope they dont cramp tomorrow.

Then, it was really nice of Janson to bring us for supper. Had supper at C121, the new wet market area. Practically laugh the whole night and i think someone can smile to bed and even have some fantasy dream tonight. Catch up with past year dramas. Speaking of which, i dint know so much drama happened last year or the year before whatever.

Char and I

She sells seashells on the seashore

OH OH OH! I’ve been selling seashells on the seashore these days and finally sold them !! and i’m telling you, selling seashells is so not fun.

nah! crap. I’ve been stressing out and handling this Shell Scholarship thingy these few days. and I’m proud to announce i FINALLY SUBMITTED THE APPLICATION FORM! hence, sold all my seashells. lol. i can finally breathe! *fresh air please!* one burden of my shoulder! *clap hands!*

Now, it’s a 50-50 chance to get this Shell Scholarship. Of course, i wish i can get it, but still i do not pour high hope onto it, cause i know clearly that to get a Shell or Petronas Scholarship, u need lorong belakang which obviously i dont have. Moreover, scholarship thingy depends on luck too. If it’s yours, then it’s yours. bleh~ anyway, i’ve taken the first step by applying it, now i’ll just leave the rest to almighty God. God has his plans for me.

The Four Candles

The Four Candles

The Four Candles burned slowly.
Their Ambiance was so soft you could hear them speak...

The first candle said, "I Am Peace, but these days, nobody wants to keep me lit." Then Peace's flame slowly diminishes and goes out completely.

The second candle says, "I Am Faith, but these days, I am no longer indispensable." Then Faith's flame slowly diminishes and goes out completely.

Sadly the third candle spoke, "I Am Love and I haven't the strength to stay lit any longer."

"People put me aside and don't understand my importance. They even forget to love those who are nearest to them." And waiting no longer, Love goes out completely.

Suddenly...A child enters the room and sees the three candles no longer burning. The child begins to cry, "Why are you not burning? You are supposed to stay lit until the end."

Then the Fourth Candle spoke gently to the little boy,
"Don't be afraid, for I Am Hope, and while I still burn, we can re-light the other candles."

With Shining eyes the child took the Candle of Hope and lit the other three candles.

Never let the Flame of Hope go out of your life.
With Hope, no matter how bad things look and are...

Peace, Faith and Love can Shine Brightly in our lives.

Center Stage

i love Center Stage to bits!! watching it makes me feel like dancing!! Watched Center Stage back then in year 2000, and i love it!! Center Stage : Turn It On which was released last year, is SEXY and i'm lovin it TOO! It'd be PERFECT if they retain the old cast, especially the main actress in Center Stage. She's such a Prima Ballerina!
