I think that being tutored by both of their teachers is a special privilege in my life. 😍 I think it was a very happy day for both my parents. Those two are my strength. they are my strength , every things ,always behind me. I love them πŸ˜πŸ’• i have no wards what they do for me. πŸ’•

My First Choreography

The sacrificial dance of the Dhamma school's devotional song performance was created by me.πŸ˜‡ it was my first  choreography experience .I enjoyed it very much. two children participated for this item. They also helped me a lot to succss  in this work.  The ceremony started around 3.30 p.m  that evening.  After that , I coached the children to perform dances . I hope they presented it well too. mmmm😊 I think I have created a good choreography with what l have done soo far. My dancing item received a lot of good responses. All the children, teachers and adults responded well.  therefor, i am soo..... happy πŸ’ͺ😁 I think it was a great opportunity in my life to perform a choreography as a dancer .Thorough this opportunity, we can get a better understanding of our mistakes and where we need to improve. I wish I had opportunities like this in the future.
