Baby, let's get in motion!

Been pretty tied up with dancing lately and I hardly have time for a breather to blog and post my fabulous pictures from Code Edge last weekend, so I'm condensing 3 events into a post! I'll let the pictures do the talking? lovelove :)

Saturday - Code Edge. Supported Margie, Siding, Xilin and of course YUTAKI at Zouk! Even though the price of the ticket was steep, it was worth every cent because the standard of competition was mindblowing!! It was difficult deciding a winner but eventually La Fuse won..Meow!

We sent Flo and Viv off at the airport earlier in the day. They're off to the outbacks of Australia for 3 weeks! Before they left, they surprised Louie and I with our Christmas gifts - homemade tiramisu, a card and a voucher for two at the Fullerton Chocolate Buffet. It was so sweet of the couple...

Our gift

We couldn't resist the aroma of the tiramisu, so we started eating it right smack in the middle of the budget teminal. -grin-

Group shot before they leave
Then it was off to code edge where I met up with the babes from Eusoff. The seniors who graduated came too! It was lovely meeting Naj, Xuewei, Lorraine etc again.

Guess who was the MC of the day..?

-chuckles- Yeap Sheikh Haikel. He got the crowd doing the moment he appeared on stage. He's explosive on stage!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here's the winner of the solo competition. Zaihal! He beat Yutaki!!!!!!!! -wails-
La Fuse. Great technique, synchronisation, hot toned bodies, wild concept.. they won the judges over!

Left to Right: Margie, Me, Freda, Claudine
Supper/dinner - Ba Kut Teh!!!
It was so good, I ate two bowls of rice!
Sunday - Good luck Chuck!

I loved what Louie was wearing..something about white shirt and jeans..

Dinner at Esteller, Far East

Avocado Chocolate!

Bear and Grace!!!!! Haiiiiyaaakkkkkkk!

Good Luck Chuck was a pretty bad movie. I had to see it because of Jessica Alba. She was drop dead gorgeous in all that fantastic clothes but the movie was terrible. After the movie, I couldn't help thank that Jessica Alba can't seem to act. If Drew Barrymore were to act, the movie might be a little better...

Tuesday - Eusoff dance corps performance, a prelude to dance production

With FredaClaud and Angel :) With some of the boys.
BBQ after the dance. Marshmallows!
Then the bands took over..

Still shuffling in between intensive Blast camp, Dance production practice and teaching Christmas choreo to the girls. I'll update soon!!!!!!!!!!! lovelove..

Peace out!

Dance production practices have been productive recently but with things piling up, stress is kind of heavy on my shoulders. Jason just called me yesterday with regards to choreographing for the girls in church for Christmas. I would have been glad to help but organising the practices have become a chore. These girls have no dance background and to make matters worse, they have a divaish attitude that youngsters possess nowadays. Initially, we agreed upon a dance but it was cancelled due to their bad attitude. As much as I would like to say no to Jason, I know I have no choice but to accept the added responsibility. There were so many if onlies I would like to put it to him.

Do you know that I have dance practice almost every day for 6 hours? On top of that, I have an added responsibility to choreograph and attend my dance blast camp? Do you know that on top of practice, I have to travel from school all the way to sengkang and back to NUS again? That's staying up to 5am daily, waking up at 8:30 am for dance prac, a 3 hour break in between from 12 then it's dancing again till 6:30? Then I have to take a cab to sengkang to teach till 10pm and take a cab back for another practice at 11pm?Do you know that more than anything else, I do not want to teach these girls because they simply don't appreciate the hours spent on choreo, travelling, teaching, cutting and editing the music?

Do you know that I don't appreciate last minute requests? The worse thing is that there will not be full attendance, which means I have to teach the diva separately? When someone pulls out and you just conveniently add two people to replace that one person, do you know that it affects the whole formation?

Please stop calling me 10 times a day and calling non stop because I can't answer the phone when I'm at dance practice. I WILL return the call once I have a break. It is so unfair to travel all the way to sengkang to teach dance when there isn't even a mirror. I don't know how this will go.. I am not optimistic

Please, I do not enjoy this. It is by far the worst experience possible.

Dinner with Joy

Guess who I met up with last night? Yeap supermodel Joy! Haven't seen the dear girl since her birthday and it was such a pleasure catching up. We're planning the Christmas programme you see :) I'm so excited about the party!!! We have a theme, games, fabulous food, lovely guests..ooh I can't wait for Christmas!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

While waiting for Joy, Louie and I took a picture...
Joy joined us a while later and she looked really good in an oversized sweater top and black stockings with ivory heels!
She's so enviably slim!! -sigh- she's a runway model you see.. tall and lean!
After our meal.. gosh I'm so tanned now!
Gave Joy a little something :)
Group picture!

Even though it was a short meet up over dinner, I felt happy and energised when I got back. Joy's like the chocolate chips in the cookie, a delight to be with, simply cause she is so genuine. Thanks dear, for coming to dinner despite your busy schedule. -hugs-

Vivian's surprise 21st B'day celebration

It was lovely Vivian's B'day on the 9th, Sunday. Louie and I arrived in Singapore at around 12 am, so I stayed over at his place because it was near the airport. We were brewing a surprise for Vivian! Over at Phuket, we managed to buy some balloons, ribbons and a party pack that came with masks to infuse some fun into the party. Louie and I planned to be chauffeurs for Vivian and Flo for the day and since it was Viv's BIG day, it was planned in secrecy! Thanks to Flo, we managed to keep this from Viv and I'm so glad it went well cause I usually ruin surprises by blurting it out.

Started the day off by wearing the new dress I bought in Phuket!

Teamed it with a weaved belt and I was ready for the surprise!Louie had a cute outfit on. There's just something about washed out jeans and a white based shirt on a tanned guy :) The backpack's mine from the Phuket trip. He's forever the gentleman, carrying my heavy stuff for meFlo started Viv's day by waking her up to a romantic breakfast and surrounded her with the sweetest gifts, from the dress she liked to tiny boxes containing her favourite candies, tissue packs with cutesy birds.. awww..

The "chauffeurs" came in only after breakfast. We surprised Viv at their apartment lobby!

Viv was elated to see us. It has been a while since we last met up due to my exams.
We filled the car with ballons and pretty white ribbons with dashes of gold for the princess! She looked so pretty!
Viv and Flo.. Flo booked a couple spa session for Viv at Holland Village. Louie and I had 2.5 hours to spare, so we took our time over lunch and went for coffee + dessert at Coffee Club.

Lunch was Ipoh Hor Fun. It was delicious and we stuffed our faces devouring every bit of what we ordered.


Evidence. Devour wasn't exaggerating..-chuckles-

Chilling at Coffee Club
On top of our coffee, we had a mudpie and a triple decker brownie! The mudpie was hug!!!
Met up with Flo and Viv after their massage and it was time for our gift to Viv! It was hair treatment + cut at color bar, Holland Village. Viv mentioned she wanted a haircut once and she said her hair was a little on the dry side so I told Flo about the plan of taking her to the hairdresser's for a nice haircut before she leaves for Australia this Saturday. Notice the disappearance of my belt? I was so full and my tummy strained against the discomfort from the tight waist belt... so I got rid of it. hehe Flo playing around with the hair steaming thingy..Viv had layered bangs. She looked a lot fresher, so pretty!!!!!!! We all loved her new look! Her length remained cause Flo likes long hair but her hair had much more layers and it gave her a lighter look.
Tada!
Dinner at Villa Bali. Flo reserved one of the nicest spots :)More food! Dearie, Viv was so happy that day and I'm glad we got to be a part of it. She is one of the most genuine and kind person I've met and I'm thankful for your help in planning for her big day. It just warms my heart to see my treasured friends smile and thank you dearie...

I love you. :)
