Homework:Qualities of a Good Dancer(NOT COMPLETE)

Qualities of a Good Dancer

If I want to be a good dancer, I think there are three necessary qualities. These qualities are only the basic for a dancer because dancer is a very hard work. First of all, I need to have a great passion for dance. I have to be very sure that I love dance and want to become a professional dancer. If I just like dance, it’s not enough. Dance is a long and hard process, so it can’t get a nice result very fast. Maybe I will give up very quickly when I can’t do well or feel tired with no passion. When I got passion, I will get more patience to practice every exercise or variation to the best.

In addition, the discipline is important, too. The most essential work for dancers is training body. Dancers use their body like an instrument. I need to practice every day, or I will go backward. I should take dance classes regularly.

Homework: Self- Introduction

Self- Introduction

My name is Chia- Yu Lu and my English name is Beryl. I think that I am very lucky because I grow up in a nice family. My parents have a hard- ward store, and my older brother works with them. My family helps me a lot. They never push me too much in study, dancing, or making money. They tell me that I just need to work hard in everything, everyday, and be honest to myself. I really believe it and try to do the best.

I have learned how to dance since I was ten years old. It has been twelve years old for my life. At first, my family did not agree that I decided to dance. They worried about I cannot support my life in the future. After I entered Taipei National University of the Arts (TNUA), they believe that I can support my life with dance. I wish my family could be proud of me now.

Ballet is my favorite dance. That is why I join the Graduate School of National University of Arts (NTUA) because the school pats much attention to Ballet. The other reason is that I want to keep dancing and learn more knowledge about dance. I was in Dance Department of TNUA for seven years (three years for senior high school and four years for university) so I decided to join the Graduate School of NTUA. I think maybe I can get more passion in learning dance by changing to a new school.

I have a dream. I want to build a dance school for some students who love dance but do not have enough money. If I want to make it come true, I should be a good teacher first. I had been taught by many good teachers in my life. They help and teach me a lot. I need to be a good teacher like them and I will have abilities to make my dream come true.

When I Was In Australia

When I was in Australia, I got home sick very much.
I felt sad and up upset every day, even it was only 5 months.
I thought that I couldn't do well in dance classes and didn't really like to talk to anybody.

Perhaps I was afraid of leaving thease friends, so I didn't want to close them too much.

I really think that I was wrong now, I miss all the classmates there very much.

Maybe I can't meet them forever.

But everything and everybody is past.

I need to learn cherishing everything and everybody in the moment.

This picture was taken at Perth's beach..

I forgot the name of the beach.

I love the sea, it can make me feel relax.

When I saw the beach at that time, my homesick got an exit.

My smile was real at the moment.

Australia is a beautiful place.

I learned how to be independent in a strange place.
