Ayu like Kayu

Dear Blog,

Guess what? I did something really silly. I joined this traditional dance performance thingy for my college dinner and I think I look silly.

Don't get me wrong, I love to dance...but, it's always been hiphop and R&B. I thought, why not give traditional dance a try? So, I did. Just now, was our first practice. And, I felt...awkward. My whole body, gait and balance was totally off. Never knew traditional dance was this hard. We danced to Noraniza Idris - Dikir Puteri. ...egad~...

I kept asking for help from the rest, since they all look pretty..umm..professional (yikes, how embarassing!). I had to make silly jokes to cover my awkwardness/embarassment. Which, worked most of the time coz they laughed and hopefully, dismissed my cacat-ness lol. I'm such a genius! *wink2*

Anyway, I seriously need professional help for this dance. They're all so...umm..there's a word for this...AYU. So graceful and LADYlike, which btw, is so UNlike me. Jenna, my big sister is an ex-zapin dancer since school and matrix. Maybe I should seek help from her?

Uh-oh...what have I gotten myself into??
