International Evening 2012

Again, another year has passed and we decided to prepare for another dance this year. As this was our last year, there were more people that were going to be involved in the dance. As we did not have as much time as last year, our practice times decreased a lot, and we could not prepare for the dance as much as we did last year. We did want to make the dance as memorable as possible. As the dance involved new members, this was a new challenge for us. Moreover, the new dance was a challenge for us aswell. This year, we decided to mix an english song and a korean song.
In order to practice for the dance, each of the member needed to take time in looking at the dance moves, and learning them. Moreover, we fitted the dance moves together with the members as frequently as possible.

As with last year, there were rehearsals that ran through on Friday as well as on the morning of the night. We practicised alot on the stage. After much rehearsal, we finally performed on stage with the audience watching us.

REFLECTION

L1: I was aware of the areas that I needed to improve on. Weaknesses included weak movements (not clear and powerful). Through this, I was able to improve upon making my movement more powerful and clearer.
L3: We had to plan on what dance to do and the practice times. These practice times were initiated by all of the members in the team.
L4: As the dance was going to be carried out in a group, this definitely needed cooperation with other members.
L5: I was committed in the dance practices during Tuesday morning and Friday afterschool. I also was commited to the rehearsals that were held by the IE team.

Overall, as there was not as much time as last year, I was able to use a shorter time scale to prepare for the event. As we had a shorter time to prepare for the dance, I feel there was less sense of achievement after the event.
