Anna, Nikki, Rina, Jen and myself won the 2011 Talent Quest Show!!! (Too bad we didn't get to create a group name! Lol)
Today was definately a memorable day and experience I'll never forget throughout my high school years! Something I can always cherish forever.
Basically a week ago, we had to form a new routine and remix because some girls decided to pull out in the last minute. But that didn't stop us from performing the talent quest show. It was only from the recent Sunday when we started to form our routine and we went to Rina's apartment to practice. Up until then we used recess & lunch times to practice our dance and thankfully all our assessments finished last week! Yesterday we all realised that we needed to practice the whole day because it was impossible to form another routine after we finish school, even though we only had half day of school. So we took the day off, started practicing at Rina's gym at 9am!! Lol! I swear we were walking around like gangsters ROFL, since we were hardout wearing black with hoodies and people were giving us a dirty. I have never dressed up like that to the city before and I shall never do that again! Lol. Then around lunch time we went to have Pho at a Vietnamese restaurant, which is a traditional soup with rice noodles and of course with chicken!! It was soo beautiful that I would love to go back to that place again one day! We then headed off to Market City because Jen wanted to look for a singlet and we went to Supre to have a look there. We walked out of the shop and one of their sales representative thought we were suss or whatsoever, because she needed to look at me and Anna's bag. Anna had a Supre item in her bag and the chick wouldn't believe us when we told her that we work at Supre Sydney City @ Westfield. Just because of what we were wearing and that's a little lesson I learnt, "Never judge it's cover'.
Off we went to the Entertainment Centre and we were practicing there till 7pm!! That was crazy, I felt like dieing and I don't understand how dancers can do that! I honestly struggled to learn the steps because I'm so uncoordinated when it comes to dancing, that's why singing is my thang haha! Got back home, and finally had the chance to relax abit and my whole body was aching! I tried to sleep early but all I could think while I was in bed were the moves and I kept going out of bed, by dancing front of the mirrors lol!
Finally today was the day and we got permission from our teachers to leave on period 2 so we could practice!! We practiced so many times that I made a few mistakes, which made me anxious! But it didn't matter anyways, because all we wanted to do was to have fun and entertain our school since it's our last year at Randwick Girls' High. We were the 5th act to perform out of 13 and I just didn't felt that prepared!! The performance started off with Nikki and I singing to "Anything by Jojo" then it remixes to "Give it up to me by Shakira". We never actually imagined ourselves dancing to a Shakira song but hey it was such a cool song to dance to! Hehe. Next we had the stomping part which I thought that part went off!! Since no one had anything like that in the show and finally the nerve racking part!! "Yeah by Usher", I completely stuffed that part, where I once just stood there looking like a lostie which was so looool, everytime I watch that part it cracks me up haha!! It was pretty cool though, because I've never danced front of the school before and it was also the first time I sang front of my school besides from singing to my year.
Most of all we had soo much fun and I definately enjoyed it!! We never expected to win because our intentions was not to win the prizes, but most importantly to have heaps of fun and like what I said above. It proved us all by putting our effort and dedication it will for sure pay off! Ahhh I'm still excited and we also won a $100 gift voucher from Westfield and we hopefully want to each get something sentimental to remind our experience together!
Also I learnt something which proved it right front of me and hopefully to them. Karma is a bitch. Isn't just funny?
