Home
Finally I'm home....
Melbourne was raining when I left..... the feeling sucked...coz....I wasn't ready to go back at all.... I mean I missed home especially my bed..... but I wanted to stay a little while longer....
I enjoyed my time in Melbourne.... It's the first trip I bore the full cost of it and I'm so proud of myself! I enjoyed and discovered my independnce..... travelling alone is not easy but its the friends you make while travelling helps you out a lot!I really wanna go back again but this time I wanna be more adventurous.... I wanna backpack..... I wanna experience it!
So yeah I left the autumn cold for hot, humid Singapore..... My mom said I got so fair and she loves it and I hated it! My room's Air-conditioning is not working! so you can imagine how badly I acclimatized back! hahaha
so yeah..... home sweet home....

Partying in Melbourne!
I partied with my capoeiristas friends in Melbourne yesterday...... It was CRAZY!!!! We went to a Latino club and everyone thought I was a Latina! I was the only Asian around anyways but not too bad yeah they considered me a Latina? HAHAHA
It was so funny.... there wee 4 ladies but non of us are Australians! I'm a Singaporean, Claudia is from Columbia, Claire's from New Zealand and Acerola is from New Caledonia! and then there was Mestre Val who's a Brazilian! It was so funny.... how different nationalities come together and have one common passion.... Capoeira....
(L-R) Me, Acerola, Claudia and Claire ..the women of Capoeira!
With Mestre Val!

Injured!
Ever since I came to Melbourne... I was always out in the morning and behome very late at night...
Then suddenly, yesterday I went to capoeira class in the evening..... Ok check this out, I was fine during the beginners class... then Mestre Val asked me to stay on for the next class the intermediate class.... fine... so he asked us to play in the Roda.. so I was playing and playing... then suddenly my left toe, the whole skin came off!!!!
Damage control, I peel off the skin and bandage it..... so I went inside the Roda again... then this guy who looks exactly like Silvano (but much much more cuter!) compra in and played with me.... you know what... this time my right toe... the whole skin came off!
Damage control again..... I got in the third time.... and you know what!!!!! The ball of my right foot... the wole skin came off and that was the worse coz it was bleeding!!!!
I'm just pissed... today I'm in bed doing nothing...... and I'm on vacation!!!! Damn!!! I really hope my feet gets better tmr!

Filhos Da Bahia Australia
oh my God!
My whole freaking body is freaking aching! I've been absent for capoeira training for months and then I visited Mestre Val's school for training.... I amost died-ed! HAHAHA
What I'm gonna describe now us gonna be about capoeira so sorry to people who have no clue at all to what i'm saying!
What happened was yesterday, it was the Open Roda class before the Beginners class.... so I was scared as hell about going into the Roda and playing coz seriously, the guys a Filhos da Bahia... are freaking crazy!!!! They kick and kick and do spinning on their head and backflips and whatever what not! And then this very sweet aussie girl pushed me into the Roda and I played with this lady called May.... I kept my composure and everything and to tell u the truth... I think I did ok for a corda crua!
One thing that helped me the most in the Roda was Mestre Ousado orthodox training.... always know how to defend yourselves and Instructor Fantasma signature feitas! they were totally fooled by my feitas coz most of the capoeiristas there... they play an offensive game, whereas i'm playing the defensive game and confusing them! And this guy... Baginggeiro (If i spell this correctly) signalled to play with me and I went to compra and played with him.... he was trying to immitate my style coz I tend to sway my hands and feitas a balans (how do u spell this June?) and it was so funny!
So after the Roda, another girl said to me my playing style is unique and and she said I have the most beautiful Role she ever saw! I was like woah! hehehe
so the beginners class commenced had we had a mini roda of our own.... and suddenly everyone wants to play with me (probably they wanna kick my ass!)... but I think they just wanna experience how it is to play with someone from another school..... it was soooooooooo fun....
Overall.... I find myself caught in between the beginners and the intermediate capoeiristas there... coz I find that I'm a bit more experienced then the beginners whereas I am no where near the intermediate levels! hahahaha
Man I can't wait for the next lesson!
