RPM class @ 10am this morning.
It's amazing that I've been doing RPM for a couple of months now, since May and still loving every minute of it. Addicted? I think so too.
Something had me thinking this morning. I was asked twice by 2 different RPM instructors whether I would like to teach RPM. The first time was sometime last week. This morning being the second time. We had two instructors this morning, Brazil Boy was one and the other was a female instructor. Towards the end of the class, she actually came up to me and said I was good! La la laaa ~ The bottomline is, anyone can be good at anything as long as there's a strong passion for anything that they do. And I simply am passionate about and have deep Love, lOve,loVe, lovE for RPM :)
I think everyone should possess great passion for a certain thing at least once in their lives. Imagine going through the days doing the same thing over and over again without an aim or nothing to look forward to each day - you might as well be dead, ain't it?
Who says being passionate about something has to be boring? Some might look at gardening as a boring way of passing time while others can very well claim the glory of having honed the passion into something great and beautiful (i.e. Bree Van Der Kamp from Desperate Housewives - ever noticed her well-landscaped garden?) Passion + Action = GOOD RESULTS.
Passion changes as time goes by or as we grow up. When I was younger, I was very into my piano lessons. My aim was to finish the wretched ABRSM exams as fast as possible so that I do not have to sit for exams anymore and be able to play whatever song I wish to. And, well I did it. Then, came one day when I'd developed great passion for reading - my mum never had a tougher time persuading me to go to sleep every night so that I will be able to wake up for school the next morning. I had practically devoured every single book ever written by Enid Blyton, Roald Dahl and the Grimm's Fairytales series. Heck, I even digested my first Narnia book when I was about 9. (Note: Narnia, being The Chronicles of Narnia - The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe which is coming to the cinemas in Dec) See, I was and still am a great fan of pixies, faeries, elves, goblins, nymphs, ogres, wizards - magic. One thing though, I have never read a single book of the LOTR series. I'd rather watch the movie. Know why? No offence to the LOTR books fans, but J.R.R. Tolkien being the brilliant writer he was, could write up to 5 pages just to describe a freakin' TREE!
Then as I grew older, I developed deep passion for cooking. I simply love experimenting new dishes and get friends to be my guinea pigs. Of which mostly, turned out to be quite good, and sometimes very good! Again... Passion + Action = GOOD RESULTS! Hahaha! At one point, I was very into netball and volleyball. In fact, I still love volleyball. Now and then I would dream of heading down to the beaches and have a few games of beach volleyball. Get a good bronzy tan. A good massage. Check out some great beach surfers' fabulous bods. Haaaa... that'd be a great relaxing weekend. Ok ok, got carried away and started dreaming again *wipe drool ~~~*
And how could I ever forget being passionate about blogging? Blogging provides this platform for me to express myself, my thoughts and feelings freely. To me, blogging also serves as a communications tool for me to be able to connect to people who are close and not-so-close to me. Recently, Su Ann having read my blog, smsed me to point out what an evil person I was, in my attempts to threaten negotiate with Justin for the 2 months worth of FREE Margaritas. The power of blogging... haaa ;)
If you'd followed my blog closely, you'd read about my ex-obsession with running. So won't go into details about it. Now, we simply focus on RPM :P Speaking of which, I have started compiling my own set of music should I decide to go through some trainings, get a Certificate and start teaching. Found this song's title which the instructors were using during classes which I grew quite fond of: Kate Ryan * Desenchantee, a Polish song. (Translation: Disenchanted)
When I started doing RPM , never in my wildest imagination would I ever thought of teaching it. It's a crazy crazy dream.
But I think I am gonna give this crazy dream a try.
