New talents discovered and developed, self-confidence boosted and self-esteem shooting up several meters higher, ideas exchanged and creativity shared and used to come up with innovative concepts, new people met and friendships formed... these, perhaps, are the best things about being part of a new team with one common goal.
And, if I may add, wearing a cheerdancer's outfit, once more, brings back memories of youth and high school, of being a sixteen-year-old all excited to be center-stage, showing the crowd how dancing and movement could go beyond being a physical art form to become such an emotionally liberating and spiritually invigorating experience.
Only this time, the dancer could boast of more years lived, more things achieved, more hurdles surpassed.
There's a nice little quote, the source of which is unknown, which goes:
"Socrates learned to dance when he was seventy because he felt that an essential part of himself had been neglected."
Happy Sunday, everyone! And take a few of minutes of your time to dance. It does wonders for the heart and the soul.
More pictures to come. Will upload the video soon.
;p

Nosebleed...still it makes sense and yes I agree that our group was driven to win the battle. thing is, those people who decided our fate were blind and can only hear the battle cry of the opponent, that's it!!
Thanks, Em! You just made my day.
;p
And, if I may say, same to you, peaches-and-cream-skin lady!
Happy birthday! Wishing you all the best in life...
Da! So nice to see you dropped by so fast.
;p
You are one of the reasons why this stint with the Pep Squad has been so meaningful and fulfilling...
Thank you for becoming my friend. I shall treasure all the fun (and stressful) times we've shared.
hey, i just really wanted to know. the one you posted thats "speck of rain roaring" by edith tiempo, is that the actual one? cause ive been trying to look for that poem on the net but i really can't find it. And im writing a paper on it so ya, getting desperate haha!
Hey, there. Yup, it's the Edith Tiempo, it's just that the line breaks and stanza breaks are not there. The epigram is included in the original poem, as well. This poem is included in SONGS OF OURSELVES, an anthology of writings by Filipino women.
Good luck on your paper. I'm sure it'll turn out well.
;p
