HELLO J2s!
now when most of us who go back for pracs are gone, bet you all will miss our presence soon :D
dont worry you still have the girls, haojie and thomson who havent gone in yet. so feel free to ask them for help if yall need any.
now that cca exhibition is over, you probably have a list of interested juniors who are probably thinking at home whether they should really join mad or not, or even watching videos or going for lessons outside to help secure their entry into hiphop.
and in a few weeks time, even more prospective juniors will be filling up the forms to sign up for auditions. some ppl will be inspired by fac dance to pick up dance and try for hiphop too (hehe dance ics btr do a good job k. esp since almost all the dics are from hh)
take this time to encourage more ppl to try for it because there are some ppl (like me) who didnt have the guts to write my name on the form and in the end smsed huihua on the day before auditions to register for it.
regardless of whether you all have been practising hard or not, this is the time when you really need to aspire to improve even more, because there's 2 really strong reasons to do so:
1) juniors
2) for dancenight
you wont know how much you're bothered by your juniors until the day they come in. i think for our batch it mattered quite a fair bit. like i kind of feared that you all would come in and own us in standards. but luckily yall kena own by matthew's choreo HAHA.
swagg it out~your basics must be solid. only then will you be able to help your juniors improve too. and that goes a long way to helping them consolidate their foundations and helping you guys to bond with the juniors too.
remember all the key points that anan has always emphasized on. be it from isolations, holding your moves, listening to the beats, there's always minute details to each move, and helping to remind each other, not simply just the juniors, will help to clean up moves and improve a lot.
dancenight is your last performance. it is your last chance to impress everyone on stage, a final chance to perform together as a division and you want to be your best. anyone can recognize that 1 year and 3 months isnt alot of time. coupled with responsibilities of a student, and plenty of other commitments, that hardly amounts to sufficient time to achieve great standards that you may have hoped to reach while watching the videos that first inspired you to dance.
but speaking from experience, we were really happy with our j2 item. (somemore even anan commented on fb that she was proud of us HAHA)
even though it wasnt of o crew, wrecking crew orchestra or any kpop group standards (some of them are really good actly),
when we were watching the video taken by xixian's mum for our j2 item during ptp, we were seriously stunned. it looked amazingly coordinated and really nice. it is at those moments when pride really swells in your heart for having put in so much effort in cleaning up, spending those lengthy and tedious hours practising everything, and producing a wonderful item that we were proud of.
in the end, it's really how much you want it, how much you choose to make dancenight worthwhile and enjoying these last experiences together.
hopefully we've impressed yall enough to inspire you guys to strive to dance well and live this passion for dance. and that we've been nice seniors that have helped to make your j1 dance experience a great one.
now its time for you guys to do it (:
