i have been thinking abt this for a few days now..
was spotted by UAN (United Artiste Network, a pretty well-known company that groomed fiona Xie & jeanette aw and many others) on saturday while i was prom shopping with parents at wisma. Apparently their events manager was having dinner with another manager, so she came up to me n said i had the package etcetc to be an artiste. i was surprised she cld tell i danced!:) *'daddy' says its the way i carry myself, haha* anyway, my mum said i shld just leave my no. as asked since its no harm giving it a try..afterall, my mum did the magnolia milk TV advert and some family promotion advert when she was younger.
well, i really didn't tink they wld call me up..cos i was always sceptical abt this kinda companies. But on monday, i received their call..was called down to meet them at their office on the following day. (so afterall, they have a decent office with proper facilites!) but before that meeting, i actually went to do some research on their company and i was surprised they were quite established afterall! so during that meeting, i was told more abt their company..their grooming programmes be it in dance, drama & music and the opportunites they provide their artiste with. i then realised several artiste frm ; the heartlanders', the macdonalds advert, this particular ch8 show, just to name a few, were all from them. the opportunities seem really good, especially if i wanna pursue dance to a higher level. to be able to dance with professionals, and to be part of them is indeed something hard to come by. what more, this opportunity was given to me..so i thought. but if i were to join, theres a price that comes along with it..and my parents r not really willing to pay for it cos although the opportunites are abundant, on the other hand if ur not good enough, u might not be given the project. i spoke to several gd frens for their opinions, many were excited for me becoming a celebrity (???? cute frens i haf really) and said i shld treasure this rare opportunity since i was 'chosen' in that sense. but i still can't decide, really. on one hand, i would love to explore the dance arena since im still young but on the other hand, the money is a problem.
with that in mind, i called them today and told them my parents were unwilling to spend such money as there were uncertainties abt whether i would be given projects afterall. however instead, i was offered to go for a jazz audition tmr. they seem to be 'unwilling' to 'let go' of me kinda thing. but ohwells! i wld still go down for the audition tmr..it wld be great to see what's their dance standard like :)
well i guess, i shld just see what comes tomorrow...
p.s can't wait to go masks shopping for prom with my seashell next wk! im so excited somehow:D i wanna get the ones in r&j! hahaha coolness : ) i miss seashell! hafnt seen her for...some time :)
