Epic day today! Well, not so much epic but definitely busy enough to make me tired. When do I get tired? I don't know. I don't feel tired until an hour after intense dancing. Trained that way since I was young. You have to keep going no matter what. Forget the pain, forget the ache, just go for it. So now, I don't even know when I'm tired, (in dancing) and I don't know until later.

So basically it was maths tutor in the morning. Then a 3 hour dance rehearsal. Intense much? Split jumps, fire-birds, pirouettes. Anything else? ^_^ Got home, ate dinner and then what? TREADMILL TIME! =.=" Did actually feel tired then but meh, gotta treadmill every day so on I went. =.=" Couldn't bring it up to 6km/h so I had to be a snail and do 4km/h instead. X.X Pissed at myself. Urgh. Right now? Hmmm, on the verge of collapsing but that's okay, cause I like it that way. Push myself to the max then go WOOOOOOOOOOOO and randomly fall on the ground. Yeh, I'm weird.

Short post. Too dead to post more and I just can't be bothered. Off to make study notes so bye!

RPA

Work experience at the RPA was awesome! So in the morning, Elijah wanted me "braid" (actually plait) his hair. Yes he's a guy and he wanted his hair plaited. Why? Cause he has some random strand sticking out. Anyway, also saw Elaine and she questioned my on why I was so "dressed up".

So I got to the station, Marina was waiting for me and since we were late, thanks to Vu, we took the backstreets. Very sus. So we got there and Marina's mum gave us an introduction to the memory retraining course thing, then we walked through a maze to get to the actual room, which I still don't know where it's located. =.=" We went in. That awkward moment when everyone stares at you. Hmmm.

The exercises were cool. Some of them work really well. ^.^ I'm glad my memory is pretty good. (: Anyway, we had a break in between. I ate an Anzac cookie =.=" OMG FAT. Lol. There were strawberries and tea (English Breakfast) even though it wasn't breakfast. XD Back to the session. Skip to the end of the session....We went back upstairs and marked some face recognition tests and also watched a video about a patient after a stroke. Oh yes, and before that was lunch!!

So the patient. He had a stroke and damaged the central part of his brain which is the part used to interpret the visual images you see, which is at the back of your brain. So if you put an apple infront of him, he is able to tell you that it grows on trees, you eat it, it a fruit but just can't tell you it's an apple. Same goes with a cow. It gives us milk, they have to be milked everyday, you will find it on a farm but he can't tell us it's a cow. Then he's given a list of words including apple. cow, calculator etc. He is told to read it out but he can't. The words are then covered and he is told to write the word apple, which he can do. When he compares it, he can recognise that they are the same words. However he can't read his own writing. So if you told him to write something, he can spell it correctly but he can't read. The human brain...a fascinating thing.

Anyway. We ate more Anzac Cookies and what did that mean? Hardcore exercise when I got home. Oh yes, went dancing. On the way to the station, I got gelato, Tim Tam flavoured lol. Being more fat. Why am I binge-ing? O.o More hardcore exercise needed.

Skip to point lesson. Doing dances over and over again. Leg suddenly went weak, rolled my ankle. =.=" URGH. So annoying. I hate it when your body just goes weak. Hmph. Skip to afterwards. Got lectured by Heidi. =.=" About pushing myself too hard. But hey, you gotta follow this rule: if you want to be better than just okay, you have to push yourself. Right? And we injure ourselves from exercise. So don't worry. I'm not the only one. :D

Skip to after dance. Computer. Studying japanese speaking test. =.=" BORING! Gonna fail anyway so meh. Can't be bothered lol. Skip to.....no more skips, that's the end. Bye.

Tutu Wasted

Since every other post on this blog has been really long, this shall be a relatively short one. There's nothing much to say. Found out Green Day was cancelled so I've been renting a tutu for no particular reason. Waste of money much? Thanks Vu, for not telling me and for blaming me for not coming to meetings when I had dance practise. Whatever. I guess there's money to spare. It's dance. Lol.

Anyway, been dancing so much lately. Making up an entire dance routine for a traditional chinese one. Need to learn some ballet exercises for tomorrow. Better get going now. Oh yes, and of course, I need to exercise on the treadmill.

Like I said, I'm gonna keep this short so I'll just wrap up here. Bye.

Epic Dance (:

Dance was epic! Everyone was dressed up, so pretty!!! Because I had a huge bag to carry, my mum drove me to school, which was awesome cause I get to go hypo and annoy my mum in the car. I was supposed to be sleeping but I couldn't cause I was so pumped. Ended up listening to music instead, singing along and being retarded, making my mum go what the heck. So I arrived at school at around 7.50am so I sat in the car pretending to sleep.

Dumped my bag at the library before looking for people and finding out that you could go into the gym and dump your stuff there. We went back to roll call where I did my bun, being super paranoid about make it round and perfect and everything. The bell rang and everyone rushed to the gym to get changed. I got into my light pink jive dress, which my mum made (how awesome) and we got first period to rehearse. Killed my leg, which was already dead, even more after doing the death drop for jive. Had to stretch for a while. It was so embarrassing. Then the bell rang for second period. OMG. Assessment time!

Don't know how good or bad it was. Someone kept stuffing up and we stopped a few times. :S That probably killed the marks. Did the routine three times before we got to finish up. Wow that was quick. I expected to be dancing for much longer than that. Would have preferred more space to do the jive death drop but meh. Random crowd was cheering every time we did it. So awkward.

Cha cha was next so I changed into a hot pink dress. :S Yes, everything I wear is pretty pink. Yes so this time, we got marked last. We danced for a while, then people started cheering again. So every time I did the splits, there would be this WOOOOOO thing going on. So awkward. Then we danced some more cause the teacher hadn't got to us yet and people kinda just stopped to look. I didn't realise it then but everyone just literally stopped dancing and just stared. Can you imagine how awkward that was? O.o Urgh. Kinda blushed. AWKWARD!!!!! Then finally, the teacher let us go. Sooooo tired from that and my leg was already hurting by that time.

Waltz last. Changed into a flowy black dress. Got it for really cheap. It was $250 before but I got it for $30. How wonderful. :P So, Tim was going to wear a tie but he didn't have one, so I bought one from home. But he broke it. =.=" So we danced without a tie. Worst dance I think. Someone kept forgetting the steps and what comes next etc. So I was like....uhhhhh....dude..... Yeah, split jump failed I think. :S Hope all the marks are okay. Urgh worked so hard for it. Hope I don't fail. :S

Had dancing after school as well so I had to lug my huge bad to the train station, all the way to Eastwood. My mum brought my ballet clothes for me to change into. I had to change in the car cause there wasn't enough time. Oh yeah, and bought be a chocolate scone from baker's delight. It was SOOOOOOO nice. Love them. ^.^ Mum drove me to dancing and I was a bit late. :S Another teacher was teaching the class, which was really weird. Learning a new dance at the moment. It's a chinese one with umbrellas and everything. I think it will look pretty when it's done. ^.^

My leg killed the whole time but I didn't want to say anything. :S Grin and bear it. Was taught that from five years old. In dance, you have to bear the pain and just do it. So that's exactly what I did. Ow that hurt. We ended up doing pirouettes and I think I did like 22 or something. Lost count. :S Everyone was staring. =.=" AWKWARD MUCH!!??!!? Couldn't walk afterwards.

When I got home, I literally just collapsed on my sofa. Couldn't get up for soooo long. Had to eat dinner though, so I had to drag myself up. =.=" PAINFUL!!! Now I really can't be bothered moving. Limping around the house isn't fun. =.=" Kills so much!!! Don't know how I'm going to survive getting around the school tomorrow. :S Don't wanna skate and kill it even more. What to do? D:

Hoping to get a good night's sleep. But then again, I gotta make notes for the chemistry part of science. Urgh. Test on Friday. Better get started. So I'll just leave it here. Bye people. (:
