Dance like no one's watching

Oh wow. I was randomly clicking some old posts when I saw something I wrote on 19 June 2003. I completely forgot about that incident but I mentioned I was worried about his drinking way back then. Is this your way of saying goodbye? 🫂 I really hope you’re in a better place now.

Was awashed with regret when I heard of your passing today. I guess I always thought there would be a “later time” when we would catch up and having met DO recently after 10 odd years, I really thought we would all arrange something this year. I was glad to hear that you recovered from […]

A couple of Saturdays so, we had a mock JnJ at the studio. I felt stressed as usual because I couldn’t remember what a JnJ would be like – the last real JnJ I took part in was in Jul 2025. After the prelims, a sense of relief washed over me. The difference between this […]

사람들은 나이가 들수록 옛 친구들과 다시 연락하고 싶어 하나요? Senior from hall reached out on Instagram and suggested meeting up. Second hall senior to do so in the past 4 months. Initially felt a little unsure since I haven’t seen this senior since graduating! But then again, why not?

I’ve not dropped my phone since buying it in August last year but then once I dropped it at the airport this week, I suddenly dropped it another 2 times. Worst thing is, I don’t even know how it landed on the floor this morning!

Had a second session with Dr Alla this morning. Penning down my takeaways so I won’t forget… • Comp – focus on the process and not the result.• It’s the process of dance that’s fun. Not the result. • Changing mental movie. Mental exercise first before physical exercise.• Why do people do comps? It’s 2 […]

21 March 2025. Milestone! Tried my first counselling session today. I really wanted to resolve my performance anxiety during JnJs and since no matter how hard I’ve tried I couldn’t “mind over matter” it, I decided to give counselling a try. It was a good 1 hr session even though it was supposed to be […]

Finally I think I can answer this question. I’m a graceful dancer but not as precise as ballerinas. I like the feeling of floating and going with the flow; perhaps reflective of how I am in life – I like peace with no big excitement or disappointments. 편하게 춤추기 좋겠다.

I think this is likely to be my last post of 2024. Would have liked to post more regularly but these days (compared to 20 years ago), I don’t use the laptop for personal reasons much… and I really hate writing long posts on the hp. Just concluded my last Korea trip of the year! […]

조금만 수정하면 더 자연스러워요: “지난 2주 동안 한국에 있었어요. 왜냐하면 학원의 Cultural Immersion Program에 참여했어요. 매일 아침에 3시간 반 수업을 들었어요. 그리고 오후에 회사에 다녔어요. 너무 바빴지만 재미있었어요.” 아주 바쁜 시간을 보냈네요! 새로운 경험을 통해 많은 것을 배웠을 것 같아요.
