Ok, so I am damn dead for Promos. As usual, I got hooked up with some awesome show that I am like totally addicted to it. And this time round, it is no exception. Yea, I am talking about So You Think You Can Dance. Season 8 was like a blast and although it has ended long ago, it is still really worth watching. Totally inspired by them to do so much more to be a better dancer. They are just so damn good. Especially Melanine, Marko and Tadd.
Melanine is just that typical girl who is the powerhouse that will win the competition since the beginning for the season, and indeed, she won. She is simply magnificent. She can do any genre with ease and with such grace and beauty. A true dancer who paints a picture with her moves.
Well, Tadd is definitely the ultimate surprise and inspiration. I mean, he is a bboy, and he did al those other genres like contemporary, jazz and even ballroom and he just hit it. I don't think any bboy is able to bring out the kind of grace and lines, which i dont think most bboys are able to perfect with their muscular and rough hiphop moves.
But, Marko is still my favourite dancer. Yea, because he is a guy, and he can do those contemporary stuff so easily. He has the strength, the emotion, the technique and he is god damn versatile too. He does all the different genres and pull it off really well, no matter whether it was his expertise or not. He totally deserve to be the last man, literally, standing. He came in third, but the position does not matter, he is still an awesome dancer.
Watching Marko dance really made me want to do well and improve my own skills. Well, I only started dance this year, and it is kind of tough. But, that's not the point. As I watched him dance and all those interviews, he really put in everything he had to get to where he wanted. It made me realise how much I have wasted my life on things that I claimed that I wanted to be good at, simply by just giving up that easily when I was younger. Yup, like how I changed CCA 3 times in 6 years of Primary school. Things just don't come by easily, but I just could not bring myself to do my best in whatever I want to excel in. I always wanted to be good at something, but I'm just not. You know, like an association to the specific field, a positive one of course. Like when you talk about chemistry, you think of Ms Mok or Mr Leow because they are experts to you. Yup, it is such achievement and excellence in an aspect that make everyone look up to you and strives to be like you.
I wasted like the past 10 years only to realise that life is more than just the books. And yet, I am not really that great in the academic aspect either. I mean, I am already satisfied with what I have achieved in terms of academic (that is if I can maintain my grades for Promos), but I want something beyond those books and notes. I am pinning my hopes on dance this year to get me through this 'inferior complex' issue of not having a talent, and hopefully I'll be mature and discipline enough to accomplish what I have started off with at the beginnging of the year.
