fusion 2008

every year, asian american association will organized an annual event called the Fusion to celebrate cultures of asia. being part of AAA brought me closer to other countries around the world, China, Korea, Japan, Taiwan, HongKong, Vietnamese, Philippines and Malaysia. i signed up for the China dance coordinated by Jingyi Wang. at first i thought the dance was hard cause i have numb legs for movement.haha. i did not memorize the dance until the last minute cause i felt i did not need too. but i realised that i need to. luckily i memorize the moves in time for the big event. fusion was a sold-out event and a spectacular event that i will cherish forever. i wore the blue costume. also, i performed at the fashion show. strutting like a catwalk with manlihoood. yea, man!!i wore the baju Melayu with the songket. i never wore that before but i really look cool in that.
over all, the dances were terrific. the vietnamese was cool with props like a paddy field costume and torch lights to shine on, the japanese wore kimonos, the malaysian dance did some hand movements and sweet graceful steps, philippines dramatic wushu combat warriors, and korean with some hip-hops moves,girly dancing and breakdancing.wish i could do that, though!!if only....alas, the seniors did a good job in doing a hip-hop dance playing timberlake's song & raining man, cheesy!!! anyway, i am looking forward towards the next fusion coming next year. the seniors, morgan, katie hu, becca will be graduating this semester. they were so nice and friendly people. morgan aka as "u need me" katie hu aka "act tough but look cute" and becca aka "blur blur"...
