Extrav 2011



I have so much to say about Chinese Extrav 2011, but really, I don't know how to put it in words.
I'm not sure where to start.

So I guess I'll start with what I am part of.
This year, I was in Modern Dance and Traditional Dance, as well as being in committee.

I've been in modern dance for the third year this year, and every year I get a different feeling.
2009 - It was a new experience for me, I didn't really expect to get in. A couple of my friends were going to try out, so I decided to as well. I got in, along with Gabby, Melody, Jennifer, Jeanette, Rose and Crystal (a couple of girls also in my year). It was probably my first time performing dance on stage, and I remember being nervous. And fun. Oh, and I learnt some new phrases that some of the people in MD used, was so random.
Yeah I can't remember much about it, my memory sucks.
I guess I would describe this year as new.
2010 - FARRRR, where do I start? This year was so probably the most fun. I had pretty much all my friends in MD 2010, and for the ones that weren't my friends before, became my friends eventually. Every practice would be filled with laughs, but it wasn't totally unproductive. After every practice, we would go down to 277 food court and just sit and chill for hours. We took a million camwhore photos, and everyone's birthday was celebrated during practice. This year was definitely about the fun.
2011 - Because of the awesome job MD did the previous year, there were sooo many girls wanting to tryout. I felt quite old, most of the people this year in MD were younger. We had many practices throughout the school term, and also in the holidays. We practiced until the dances were near perfect, until the moves were drilled in our head - to ensure that we had the best performance possible. It was different from last year - we didn't take as many photos, I didn't socialise as much. The only thing I really regret is not noticing that the people in MD this year, despite being quite shy and unusually active on Facebook, were actually pretty cool. I just didn't get the chance to know them. 
This year I would say, was about dance and performance. 



Traditional dance - Peacock.
This was my first time ever joining traditional dance, its so different from modern dance! The moves weren't as fast, or strong. It was my first time trying to be graceful (LOL). It was definitely a different experience for me, and I'm glad that I joined.
Thought of green and blue makeup - CRINGE. But it actually didn't look that bad. And I loved the  peacock feathers, made us look more like birds :)
I'm gonna forget how I nearly freaking TRIPPED on stage, and just remember how everyone said that it was very graceful and elegant looking.

Sunday night, in my opinion, was better than Saturday. The audience was just more hyper, and the atmosphere was more lively compared to the first night. I sort of feel sorry for the people who came on Saturday, but at least they got to see the show!

I love all my friends who came to watch Extrav, they are all so supportive! I could always hear my name being yelled out, followed by "You're so HOT!" (Thanks JISU LOL)
It gave me confidence when I was performing :)

Despite how stressed I was on Sunday night, from all the little things that don't even matter anymore, Extrav turned out amazing Guts to all the people who missed out! Go on facebook and watch the videos or something. Although the feeling won't be the same if you are watching online, it's WORTH IT.

I've realised something, my blogspot is camslut. But I don't have many camwhoring photos. 
Here are some from Extrav
