Dancing In The Dark In Support For Earth Hour

Last Saturday, 28 March 2009, we had our dance practice like usual. However it was a special session. We have turned the light off from 8.30PM TO 9.30PM in support for the worldwide energy conservation effort- Earth Hour.

Initially, we thought of illuminating the hall with candlelight. But we have to turn off the fan to prevent the candlelight from flickering. For only 5 minutes, all of us were feeling rather uneasy as the hall was dim lit and we couldn't stand the stuffiness.

Gradually one by one took their place at the entrance area. With the help of street lights, we find it much pleasant and certainly it was much cooler dancing at the outdoor.

It was indeed challenging to dance in the dark as we were unable to "peep" at the dance steps of our team members. So all have to rely on our own memory to recall the steps.

Though it was only a short one hour, it was indeed a memorable experience. At least we have made an effort to support the call for action. If at all you believe in reincarnation and that you probably would be coming back to this world again many years later, you wouldn' want to be caught as the victim of global warming.



Was the husband and wife team found it more romantic to coach each other in the dark?





The one and only lamp post outside the building did a big job.







Dimly lit area didn't dampen the spirit at all.
