Dancing Vs Studying
Finally, the most awaited dance performance (for me) is over. All the hard work, all the time management, all the early morning practices, all and everything related to the dance was for nothing! The pleasant day turned out to be an exact opposite by the end of the day. It’s more like a nightmare!
I just wish I practiced harder, I just wish I had the confidence the Akedemi Seni Kebangsaan students possess. They were extremely terrific! My class mates were quite good, but if compared to them, we were like a bunch of monkeys making a fool out of ourselves, and the king of the monkeys? Surprise, surprise it’s me!!
Now that these practices and dance is over (maybe for good), ill have to return to my books :-( I really had fun going for practices. In fact I didn’t mind at all the early waking up just to go for class thingy. I actually enjoyed it. I just wish I felt that way when it came to studies. Damn whatever people say about doing something you like, it’s so so true!
Given that the ‘exam’ is over, I finally realized that dancing is not at all something easy, and surely not my field of battle. I really salute dancers. And as for today, I’m more than convinced that being a dancer (or an actor), is actually a tougher job than a doctor or any other health practitioners. I mean at the end of the day, there are always books, and guidelines and journals for these practitioners but not for dancers.
So right now, all I can say is that thankfully I’m not a dance academy student. After all, all I need to do is read like mad, study day and night and hopefully I will pass my exams
And that is exactly what I should do now :-)
