just a quick update of my life recently

Oh boy, I've been neglecting my own blog for 3 solid months. Although I have thought of some ideas, I never did put any of those ideas into writing. And since I don't like giving excuses, I won't.

So, what have I been up to these days?

Well.. First, I still work at my alma-mater, part-time Research Assistant part-time aspiring Grad student (meaning I haven't enrolled yet). Still looking for a Grad school along with a scholarship. I didn't make it as one of Korean government scholarship's grantee and I'm still waiting for good news from a certain social foundation and/or a certain university. I think I'm going crazy because lately I feel this kind of attachment to one of the universities even before I get to study there. I'm not sure if that's a good thing because it is closely similar to being hopeful and being hopeful opens a bigger door for disappointment. So yea, I'm anxious like an adolescent boy who's going to ask a girl for prom.

On the bright and sunny side, I finally take a shot at a quite-serious dancing school. :D It has a curriculum, exams, handouts and what-not. They teach the basic of dancing, such as Ballet, Modern Dance, and Gymnastic (they really need you to be able to do split, cartwheels, God knows what else). I sweat like hell in every class and I'm loving it. And although I lack the flexibility of a youth, I don't get too worked up about it.

During my classes I took some valuable lessons from the dance school. No, not the technical lessons, but more philosophical if one might say. :p First lesson is that you're never too old to dance. There was a middle-aged woman in one class and well, I'm not young either. Second of all, learning the basic doesn't always mean it's easy. It's hard! And the third, dancing in group isn't an easy job. You have to synchronize with your dance-mates. Not just doing the same movements, but you also have to do it at the same time and make it look good. So if you think dancing like those boybands and girlbands is easy, you'd better think again.

I've only come up with those lessons about dance and dance school so far. Maybe I'll add more to it as the school progress. :) Oh and one more thing before I end this post, if you're curious about dancing and want to learn, just ask me and I'll tell you all about the school.
