Fairy Dust

Spring break has just begun, April has just been around. The sun shines brighter than ever, the flowers rise and smile to the sun. For the first time in forever, I'm getting what I'm dreaming of… I went to a competition on Sunday, it was my second competition in England, and I got a champion trophy! It was a dream come true indeed, I was beyond grateful and right now am only more determined to work harder. It would be cliché to say that it was unexpected to have happened, but it really was surprising, since I have messed up a few parts in semi-final and final rounds that I was so frustrated with myself at that time. I was in tears and stamping my feet (in heels), because I couldn't accept the fact that I never unbalance for the hundreds of times that I have practised, yet I unbalanced in the final round. When they announce the result, it was a complete relief that I made it first and I couldn't be happier. I love what I do, and my passion for dancing will never diminish, which hopefully will lead me to success one day! 

We also celebrated our coach's birthday at the competition, it was spectacular that the panel paused the competition (or it was sort of a break), and the DJ played a birthday song for us to sing along while we gave the cake. Hopefully he liked the little celebration that we have prepared, although he said he is not a fan of massive celebrations or being at the centre of attention. I cannot thank him enough, for coaching me so well, it is not about how many titles he holds or whether he has a world ranking, but he genuinely is a great coach. I have never learned so much knowledge about dancing from other teachers I have had, and I have never had so many encouragements and supports from a coach. 

Now that I should be moving to working on the next goal, I am only more determined to word harder, because life is short to procrastinate on something you love and have so much passion towards. In the mean time, I have my first ever public exam next month, which is very nerve wrecking and stressful… It will definitely influence my future a lot, of what I will be doing at University or which path I am going to take, but I think everything happens for a reason and what comes around goes around!
