DANCE.

argh, so I have to write about a two min speech about why I love dance for my showcase.

I actually don't know...if you asked me why I loved it a year or two ago then I would explain to you how dance is my therapist, my drug - how it frees me from stress and the world. It's an excuse to find freedom and to interact with myself. (I have discovered that I use it as a path to know more about myself) I love it because it gives me hope and meaning in life. When you perform on stage, you can become a completely different character and society won't judge you for that - you can act like the bully at school, the crazy maniac or even the sexy girl you see on tv and no one will judge you for that. Dance reminds me of my childhood... it reminds me of the naive little girl who was so determined to follow my dream. It is the mould to my sculpture of becoming who I am. One year, my parents made me quit dancing because of distraction to study and how it's a 'hobby' to my life. That year, I lost myself. I was constantly bored and upset, I felt like I had nothing to do with my life..and  I no longer knew the definition of who "ann" was because I lost myself. My friendship and the way I act changed all around me - I wasn't the same. But what I learnt from that mistake was - I won't let anything get in the way of what I love and I managed to get back to dancing and this year - I was able to find my hunger for dance again.



Yeah..after writing that, I helped myself a lot more to discover what I love about dance.
The reason why I say 'a year or two ago' is cos' I have a lot of things blocked within me atm, and I need to free it to think.
