  • YYCIS and Y2Y- To Aim for Love 26 Jun 2011

    定向 愛

     

    這個做到YYCISers快死的籌款活動終於完滿結束。於我而言,第一次搞這樣大型的籌款活動的我們完全是超額完成,空前成功。雖然活動當日有些小意外,讓賽事有點延誤,但意外其實也是活動必然發生的事,我覺得大家也隨機應變得很好。

     

    這次的籌款活動是和Y2Y合辦的野外定向比賽。 Y2Y負責比賽的technical部分,我們負責行政部分。

     

    而我就負責比賽中心外的攤位,包括3個遊戲攤位和4個賣物攤位。這次可謂出盡了我的人情牌,找了很多朋友來當義工和義賣他們的手作品。雖然賣物的成績(market不對)不太好,但我覺得這個經驗很好。遊戲攤位和Mini-Car的抽獎成績非常好,真是太興奮。但就辛苦了一班義工,應付一輪又一輪來玩遊戲的人們。他們有一些還幫我搬東西,忙足成日,真是超感謝!

     

    準備過程的辛苦和當天的累相信只有YYCISers才能明白,但我覺得社友們的感情突飛猛進,而且投入感強了很多,這是很好的回報吧!我還因此找到了我的西班牙語老師,哈哈哈!

     

    謝謝YYCISers的話在做給大家的感謝卡已經寫過了。

    我希望在這裡謝謝來幫我的朋友們呢!

    最後要謝謝天公造美,讓我在戶外的攤位能順利運作。

  • London 19 Jun 2011

    I was quite tired and fell sick right after the tango performance, so I decided to take a rest at London when I stayed there (surprise?).

    I did not do much on the first day except working on the fund raising event of YYCIS. Met Maris at the crew lodge and he was interested to go to the Museum of London with me on the next day.

    Museum of London

    Traveling in London is super easy. You can take the tube around and there is always a map waiting for you. They have clear instructions and everything is so close together. We found Museum of London quite easily.

    It is a Museum inside the city, located on top of a round-about of the road.

    When you get to the entrance of the museum, you can see a piece of round grassland. It is very refreshing to see it right inside the city.

    Exhibition of “Map of London”

    It was the reason I went to this museum.
    Museum of London invited Londoners to draw their own map of London and they picked 7 of them to display. It was very interesting to see a different London map of people’s mind.

    I especially like “Loos of London”. It was drawn by a mother who knew the best toilet around the town for her son. She always encounters problems of finding toilets when she went out with her son. So, she now knows exactly where is the toilet with best equipment, which style is the toilet around, How clean they are. It is a very special and great map. I had a lot of fun reading it.

    Most of the maps are very subjective and so they carry a lot of emotions and memories. I love the little remarks and comments on the map.

    Maris was reading the “loops of London”

    Honestly, the rest of the Museum of London was not very interesting. The history part was quite boring, but we found a temporary exhibition of some photographs of old and new London. The photos were great!!!!!!

    Photo taking was not allowed in the exhibition, so I could only take my favorite one from the cover of a book.

    This is amazing with the content and framing.

    看完 “map of London”的展覽後,我本來打算畫一個我心目中的元朗地圖。把很多回憶畫在裡面,然後分給我的好朋友做他們的記事本的封面。但當我畫第一部分給Jimmy的時候,我發現自己是不能“我手畫我心”的人。畫出來完全不是我想要的東西,所以我放棄了!
    這是個很好的主意,可惜我能力不足呢!

  • Argentina Tango Performance 10th and 18th June 2011

    我發現世上最難剪接的短片,是有自己在內的短片。

    收集了幾個朋友為我拍的表演片段和自己練習的片段,一心想自己把這些片段接上,紀錄我第一次的阿根廷探戈表演,但我每次看片段就在看哪裡快了,慢了,腳有哪些做得不好的地方,完全無法集中精神。最後,我決定找Jimmy幫我剪接。謝謝Jimmy的幫助和耐心的剪接。我明白這樣剪是有一定的難度,因為我們每次跳的拍子都有點差距,所以連在一起不是想像中那麼簡單。

    短片中有兩次表演和兩次練習的片段。兩次表演都有好朋友來支持,是讓我很開心的事。謝謝你們的到來,這對我是很重要的。最後一定要謝謝Eric的邀請,讓我有機會表演阿根廷探戈,還有編舞的Sunshine老師。

    My own videos are the hardest videos to edit for me.

    I collected some clips of my performances and practices. When I tried to edit them, I find myself only focusing on the mistakes I made and where I could have done better on the dance. I could not concentrate on my video editing at all. So, I asked Jimmy to help. He did a great job on editing this as it was not such an easy job. Eric and I dance quite differently every time.

    This video contains 2 performance and 2 practices. Thanks my good friendS for coming to my performance. Your support is very important for me. Last by not least, a big thanks to Eric who invited me for the dance and Sunshine who is the choreographer of it.

    Argentina tango performance by Winky and Eric

    By Deadcat:

    為了看美女朋友演出tango我生平首次看完整套文化中心大堂表演, 還和阿婆阿伯爭位扒坐在地面舉機拍攝. (台前不可能站著看的, 後面坐樓梯級看的伯伯們會大叫, 其中一位走上前來和正在用三腳架拍video的哥仔說, 師兄, 你就拍得靚啦, 難為我們在後面看不到, 你再站我打爛你部機. 師兄沒理他, 伯也沒打爆攝影機) anyway我只覺得她那段好看, 就是正常的 tango,不玩帽子、絲巾、錫紙保溫袋和人疊人

    By Kei:

    今日看友人在文化中心表演阿根廷探戈

    真的很專業, 用心的跳. 我很少見她認真&不笑的樣子, 哈
