The dance.



Work has been really depressing lately and fun at the same time.

Despite of having to deal with some silly retarded pathetic douchebags, every working day is fun for me and my other ten colleagues as we are having dance practice every lunch hour and after working hours. Our annual dinner and dance is coming soon so we are to perform a dance performance called the Dance Revolution. Basically we make a medley out from six songs.. starting from the 50s till the new era. The songs consists of a twist song (Let's Twist Again by Chubby Checker), a rock n roll song (Great Balls of Fire by Jerry Lewis), a disco song (Saturday Night Fever by the Bee Gees), YMCA by Village People (it's a gay song, I know.. lol), an MJ's song (Thriller!! Definitely my favourite.) and the closing song is Single Ladies by Beyonce. Yea, it sounds pretty jaw-dropping. Never in my life I thought I would be dancing Single Ladies, not even a step.

Agak gila lah sebenarnya. The idea started with Poco-poco je actually.. sebab patutnya sebagai last performance time dinner nanti, nak suruh la audience menari sekali. Turned out the committee re-arranged the tentative and our dance will be the first performance. So Poco-poco would be totally boring and dull. One of us showed a clip titled Revolution of Dance and found that everyone seemed to be interested with the idea and decided to try.

Luckily our head of Infrastructure Dept is a professional dancer (he won MJ Malaysia's title when he was just 18 and he used to dance for Datin Seri Tiara Jacquelina) so we asked for his favor to train us and everything became so exciting!

So hmm.. it's pretty crazy for us. Tengok lah nanti macamana. Muehehehe.

The theme for the dinner is Blast From The Past which means we have to dress like the old days and each department will dress according to the draw which the area leaders have picked up. I am the area leader for my department and my team will be dressing up as the 40s!!

Gilee.. Until now I cannot decide what to wear!! Susah laa..

I wish I could just wear a normal dress and ignore the theme but what would my team say?

Hmm.. we'll see. Memang buntu dah ni. My mom suggested a kebaya pendek and batik but how the hell am I supposed to dance Thriller and Single Ladies with kebaya? Koyak kanggg.

I want to go to a costume shop, see what I can find but God, the dinner is just around the corner. Lagi dua minggu je. I think it's too late already.

Anyway, since I'm very kind-hearted today.. here's a sneak peek of our dance rehearsal for Thriller last two weeks. We were just getting the full steps at that time. So don't judge. Haha.

Yeay!
