Dear Self,
STOP BUYING CLOTHES.
YOU DON'T NEED THEM.
Love, Yourself.

Mondial des Cultures.

Bittersweet.
This word can define a lot of feelings for this trip.
I think that there were a lot of minds that were spoken,
and to be completely honest,
I do not know where I stand anymore.
Yes, we had fun. Looking back on it, I had a blast.
But, it upsets me to say I'm not in it for my culture,
I'm in it for the people. Which is fine,
except that it is affecting the effort I put into dancing.

Again, I tried to go into this trip without any expectations,
and it's good that I decided not to.
I was not let down from the trip, but I was let down by people.
Thank goodness for those people who always know how to
bring my back up, and boost my confidence and happiness.
You people know how to have fun, and not let it get spoiled.
That's why I love you guys!

It isn't over yet Fiesta, and hopefully the end isn't near.

Trying to get it out of my system.

All of it.
This love isn't working...It probably never will.
It's broken, and what you're doing isn't going to fix it.
It's not fair to either of us, so please just say goodbye.
It's one or the other,
And we both know who's gonna be the one to go.
If you opt to change your mind, it won't be the same,
I don't think it'll ever be the same.

Scrawny Ankles.

To my dear friends, I am sorry for my absences.
I know I've been busy and I apologize for not texting you all back.
I'd like to give a genuine thanks to those who came out to see me.
Now you truly know what I've been putting my time towards.

To Fiesta, we have done it again.
It seemed like it would never end, but the three days are finally over.
It was tiring, painful, and sweaty, but we did an amazing job!

And now, as I lay on my bed with my make-up still on and my feet all dutty,
I bid adieu to blogger again because I have another endeavor to face with my Fiesta bitties.
DRUMMONDVILLE. We're coming for you.
Practice tomorrow, leave Tuesday.

To my feet, ankles, legs, and lower back.
I apologize.

It already has.

Happiness is,

Loving your smile
Learning new things
Hearing that you're someone's favourite
GETTIN' MONEY (thanks for the shift chia!)
Feeling a cold shower in scorching heat

Sadness is,

Being rejected,
Getting a rash from dance costumes,
Having nothing to do,
Being too hot to bother straightening your hair,
Being the FLAKER,
Not looking forward to Drummondville..it won't be the same as Ste. Marie
Not having money to buy chains, beads and posts to make earrings.


FUCK.

Choose.

I'm sorry that things are easier said than done.
But really now, this has to be done.

Bonjour, et bienvenue a la Festival de la Couleurs du Monde.

Let's just get this out of the way before hand: Ste. Marie, your festival was welcoming, well-organized, and a lot of fun. So thank you :)

I know that I've been ranting to a lot of people about how I really didn't want to attend this festival, and to be honest, on that first day, walking into that school and realizing where we were staying, I was anxious to leave. But after a while, it all started to sink in and I realized what I was in for, and why I was there.

Some may not realize, but these festivals are work. Hard ass work. From driving for 10 hours to sleeping for 3, these things are exhausting. But nonetheless, they are just as exciting.

The past four days have been hectic, but they were worth it. It was time and effort well spent.
To hear feedback from a professional choreographer that I was one of his favourite dancers?
That was worth the sweat, frustration, and practice.
To meet new people and engulf yourself in their culture?
That was worth the experience and long travel.
To create experiences and memories with people you love and care about?
That was worth more than anything.

Although this festival wasn't a big one, it definitely was a great one. I didn't know what to expect, and I think it was better that I went into this expecting to not get any reward from it because in the end, I think we won the prize. The audience hadn't seen anything like us. We were a flock of asians in a sea of cauccasians. This was all new to them, and I am more than honoured to have been able to share the stage and arena with them.

My friends kept texting me to dance my ass off. And I did...to be up on the stage and see your troupe dancing in their colourful costumes on the big screen was a great pleasure.

Congrats FFDT, we have done it once again!
Merci Buckets, and we'll see you next Wednesday Drummondville!

Ste. Marie, tu es tres beau.

I've seen a lot of audiences in different countries,
but I must say,
for 4 nights straight,
this one kind of blew me away.
