Two events happened which potentially check my life (well, so does all others)

I experienced two things which may potentially change my life forever. Of course, based on idea of Butterfly Effect, almost every single that happened in this world can potentially change my life forever. But at least two events are interesting.

First, I figured out that I can somehow lead a practice session for a dance piece which I DID NOT KNOW how to dance. It happened during a performance practice for a Catholic Youth event later this month. I was agreed to help out during the event, even though I had completely no idea what role I was going to play.

At the second scene of the performance there was sort of a group a-go-go dance. Since someone was missing at the practice, this director asked me to fill the gap. I was like "what the ***k" but followed the instruction anyway.

After the rehearsal for that session ended, we though were dismissed. But instead the director asked me to PRACTICE the dance with them. And I was like "MAJOR WHAT THE ***K" because I still couldn't remember most of the steps. Being such passive aggressive person, I once again accepted the task. So thought our the coming 30 minutes, I acted like I knew stuff, asking some students to do a little bit demonstration, and then simply based on that demonstration to practice. Luckily, these secondary school student were kind enough to not majorly challenge me (but then I will let the one who challenge me to take over the practice session anyway).

But do you know what was the best part? During the end of the practice today, we had a final rehearsal. Being acted like an instruction for more than 30 minutes, I STILL COULDN'T dance that piece correctly at the final rehearsal.

Ironic isn't it?

The second thing that made an impact on my life today (it actually happened more like a physical comedy punch): I learned that if a can of Coke dropped from 6 feet above to the floor, the splash it generated could spread over an area as big as 64 square feet (that's the size of my room).

I made that happened after I got home form the dance practice, then tried to move several cans of Coke from the closet of my room to the refrigerator. A can of Coke silted out of the the fragile paper box. The next thing I know, my room was spilt with sticky Coke.

I took me 15 minutes to clean them up. Not too bad, but .... Still anonying, considered that I was soaked with my own sweat after a whole afternoon dance practice.

That's it for now. More fun stuff later.
