I was reading but my vision started to blur and the words seemed to be dancing, and then KJ started to talk. The test date had been rescheduled and I now have more time to prepare. Then we went on to discussing which dances to take. TC said I could probably get distinction in all so it doesn't matter what I choose. Christy might skip PD while Yvonne had no idea at all.
KJ is quite sure that I will get high marks in Rumba and CCC, so I am now choosing either PD or Samba. KJ suggested PD not only because I like to be a bull, but also because of the simplicity of the figures. A question popped up immediately- easy figures do not mean that the dance is easy to dance. In order to achieve a good enough mark, test-takers need to mind the footwork, hip actions and arm styling (he mentioned my balance in particular so I need to pay extra attention to it from now on).
Talking about the footwork, PD's footwork isn't easy. In fact I could be confused since its footwork show a definite difference from all the other latin dances. I was quite curiously how were KJ's marks and I did really ask him. He used to get higher than 90 and he anticipated that I could get over 80, which should be a very nice result. I told him that I also want to get marks as high as his, he then giggled.
Well, usually we can only take 2 tests in a time, but if I really want to take G1 as well, a nomination is needed. I am sure I can at least get a pass in G1, and I hoped to take all 4 in one time. I am quite sure that KJ will grant me the nomination I need but what if I fail? I was told that the examiner would be from UK and s/he will give a special class on technique which would be very useful on the test day, right before the test. I doubted whether it makes sense to teach us technique and test us within an hour- obviously nothing will be used in our test since we will be so accustomed to our usual practice.
And still, my problem hasn't been solved- which dance should I pick? I should know which dance I could do better before I make the decision. Or maybe I keep practicing all four and see what happen in this month?
