Trainings + Props Making for NTU Institutional Lion Dance Competition

so 've been busy for the past weeks preparing for the upcoming 8th NTU Institutional Lion Dance Competition on 17th March. was busy t a extent, 've trainings EVERY NIGHT till around 11pm last week!
thanks t my Lion Head and Lion Tail for being so hardworking, and thanks everyone who took the effort to come down to train ;)

becos of competition, i feel all the bondings we have, even w those i ain't close w. and ended up, we all bonded!

coach wanted me to take Team NYPLD's flag for 列队 this year. was kinda shock, cos i always thought is drummer taking instead. -____- learnt the proper way of taking it proudly. and Charmaine's "OUP" is damn cute please, untahanable~

so Shaun and Charmaine went t collect our new lions, and IT'S FREAKING CHIO OMGGGG!!!

TEAM NYPLD's new lion!!! ^^
(Left to Right) Team NYPLD Alumni's Lion, Team NYPLD's Lion.
and this is what coach said regarding these two new lions - "These two new lions are Singapore 1st new lion skin design.. No others had used this pattern n colour yet.. :)"
tell me how not to be proud of it!? HAHAHA

got our new Drum and Cymbals as well, now waiting for my Luo's stand and 8 more new 节令鼓's drums!!! ><
Shaun trying to 开鼓的声音. but ended up didn't, cos coach say don't risk, case the sound went off :/

have also busy doing props for the last two trainings! Kenny and me did the punching of paper parts for the "mountain-lookalike" feel for our props. and Shaun cmi, the one he punch, look like pimples! LOLLLL!
below are all the props making photos!!! :D




this is just how much we've punch, and now my fingers are aching like a bitch. and my back is acting up again, cos 've been kneeling, hunchbacking to do all this props. crapzzzz

Team NYPLD's 青, it's floating around and it's damn cute! hehehe
coach was teaching them on how to do, the rest of us siam, cos we don't wanna do the props. LOLLLL.




We're supposed to paste the black cloth over our new drum. Not cos of the hideous color. But to suit all our comp attire and lions! hahahaha
these are all Team NYPLD Alumni photos during training. see how shaun and nelson gaying on the scaffolding. hahahaha!

they are trying to do nelson kiap shaun. but they failed, so the result was Shaun hugging Nelson -___-




SEE MY SPIDER!?!?!?! MY CALEFARE!!!! ^^
Team NYPLD Alumni Instrument team! :D

was talking to Charmaine, when Team NYPLD Alumni was training, and Charmaine point to me and said, "faster take, faster take, go infront take!" so this is the shot i got. BLURRED BUT CUTE RIGHTTTT! hahah
