So.
This question has been bugging people for months.
Why did you stop dancing?
*sigh*
Humans.
It's our nature to be curious right? : )
So yeah,
lemme tell you.
I know, I know,
Finally.
>.<
Okay.
Some of you may know,
I was a dancer since I was a kid.
Started out with some hip hop thingy I learnt from my elder brother,
To zapin when I was 11 or 12.
Then I stayed quiet ever since I got into secondary school.
That, I can assure you, is for no reason.
I just kinda stopped because I wasn't in the mood for anything.
I didn't even do sports during those first three years in SUKSES.
Then,
in my last year in SUKSES.
the 3 weeks camp in UKM during the school holidays,
I started again.
We danced for the TalenTime performance.
I was one of the leads in our course.
It felt like...
I felt..
alive.
At last.
After all those years.
When I left SUKSES and came to this new school,
I began to feel that laziness again.
But I still did dance.
It was for the visit of The First Lady of Czech Republic
and I danced a traditional dance
with four other people.
And then I stopped.
Now this is the real answer.
I didn't stop because I hated dancing.
I didn't stop because anyone told me to.
I didn't stop because of my low self esteem.
I didn't stop because of anyone.
I stopped because of myself.
I knew where my passion leads to in dancing.
It's not those traditional dances I do at school.
No.
I like love modern dance.
And most of the time,
when I do freestyles,
my body makes these sexy moves I cant explain myself.
It feels so right.
but at the same time
so wrong.
I liked my freestyle moves,
as much as I love dancing as a whole,
but moving like that,
with males looking at you,
I know it's wrong.
Though I know I'm dancing for my passion,
Sometimes I still think to myself,
Why am I making myself a display to those men?
I'm not one of those very pious women,
nor am I too far strayed,
but I still realize that
I shouldn't let men sin,
for looking at me like that.
And having myself sin double the times they do
for doing that.
So that's why I stopped.
Well in front of guys, I did.
But today,
I caught myself doing it again.
I know I love it.
But....
*sigh*
I don't know.
Ya Allah,
help me.
