Singapore love
Quest had the honor and privilege of being invited to Singapore to take part in a dance showcase called The Big Groove. It was one of the most amazing experiences that Quest has been a part of and also one of the most amazing experiences in my life. I still can’t wrap my head around it quite yet but since Quest is going to be busy, I need to get this post up or I will never do it. My solution? to put it in list form.
ready?
here it goes…
O SCHOOL !
- They are a dance school in Singapore that hosted us while we were there
- Not only were they such amazing hosts, they’re just down to earth, hardworking, wickedly talented people. They inspire me in many ways.
- Because we had a longer trip than usual, I got a chance to talk to a handful of them one on one which was rare on these trips. I hold those memories fondly.
Dancers !
- There were dancers there representing Japan, Indonesia, Cambodia, Taiwan, Singapore, and us from America
- I haven’t seen many dancers from Asia besides the foreign dancers that come train in Hollywood so I had no idea what it was like. But it seriously blew my mind. Watching them tech live and then perform through the TV was so much fun.
- A special shout out to Wrecking Crew Orchestra. You guys are something else. Its hard for me to express how dope they are, you just have to look them up!
- O SCHOOL. They hosted everyone, produced a show and then closed it with STYLE!
Singapore !
- Its rare for Quest to be able to roam a city that we’re performing in because usually the schedule is so packed but this time was different. There was lots of time for us to walk around the area close to our hotel and we even sometimes taxied out and ventured around
- the food is ridiculous. I missed how good fresh fruit was in Taiwan, and this is just like it. There’s street vendors every where and open till freakin forever. My favorites were roasted duck and rice and then the crab soup dumplings!
- The city is clean, the food is awesome, the shopping was everywhere, the people were nice and there’s lots to see and do… there’s not that much more I can ask from anywhere that I visit.
Its 5am and this is really all I can think of to put down for this. I’m sad that I can’t really put into words all that I feel about this trip but a little glad because now it’s something I can hold onto as my own and remember by feeling instead of words or photos.
but don’t worry there are photos (from the powershot)!
Food from Taipei where we layed over after 12 hours on the plane. BOMB

Good Morning
The alarm goes off and immediately you slam on the snooze button. The weight of yesterday still pressing down on your chest telling you that you just need ten minutes. Alarm goes off again but you swear you’ve only just closed your eyes. Snooze. Ten more minutes later blurry eyed, you stumble into the bathroom and turn on the faucet. Minty toothpaste has a way of clearing up the fog. You jump in for a quick shower and the weight that is still hanging from your shoulders formed from yesterday’s battle wounds starts to dissolve. The dirt and grime accumulated from the mountains climbed and rivers swam slides off your skin making room for a new armor for a new day. Toweling off you feel much lighter. Now a hop and skip into fresh clothes. Dressed. A quick breakfast, yesterday seems like a distant life you’ve once had. You open the front door walking out shining and alive. A new life begins.

Godliness
A complete thought. An accomplishment requiring a skill set that has recently escaped me. Having a difficult time sharing my own words, I offer you an article written by Michael Josephson. If you can get through this whole thing with no pictures, the world is a brighter place because of you.
Finding God in the Park 660.5
Abe was fiercely independent, even at age 85, but after a mild stroke his son insisted he move in with him. Abe missed going to the park near his old apartment, and one Saturday he set out to find it.
When he became disoriented, he asked a young boy named Timmy where the park was. Timmy said he’d like to take him there, but he didn’t have time because he was looking for God. He said he needed to talk to Him about why his parents were getting a divorce.
“Maybe God’s in the park,” the old man said. “I’d like to talk to Him, too, about why He’s made me useless.” And so they set off together to find God.
At the park, Timmy began to cry about the divorce, and Abe lovingly held his face in both hands and looked him straight in the eyes. “Timmy, I don’t know why bad things happen, but I know it wasn’t because of you. I know you’re a good boy and your parents love you and you’ll be okay.”
Timmy gave Abe a big hug and said, “I’m so glad I met you. Thanks. I think I can go now.”
From across the street, Timmy’s mother saw them hug and approached her son in a worried voice. “Who was that old man?”“I think he’s God,” Timmy said.
“Did he say that?” she demanded.
“No, but when he touched me and told me I’m going to be okay, I felt really better. Only God can do that.”When Abe got home, his son asked in a scolding voice, “Where were you?”
“I was in the park with God.”
“Really? What makes you think you were with God?”“Because He sent me a boy who needed me, and when the boy hugged me, I felt God telling me I wasn’t useless anymore.”
This is Michael Josephson reminding you that character counts.
Not particularly a religious person but I like where this is going.

PLEASANTNESS
“I know you want it to stay pleasant around here, but there are so many things that are so much better. Like silly or sexy…or dangerous or brief. And everyone of those things is in you all the time, if you just had the guts to look for them”
— David Wagner
Pleasantville is one of my favorite movies of all time. The metaphor and symbolism is easy and the message is clear. Done with a visually stunning and musically rich story line.
Although not the major point in this story, nostalgic 50s photos tend to make people feel like freshly baked cookies. Ironically enough, this movie also shows that not only is it not like freshly baked cookies(thanks AENG), but actually more like stale bland cookies that’s been left out for… about 60 years now.
“…it’s not suppose to be anything”
—David Wagner

When I Woke Up.
This is all I remember from last nights dream. I was driving in a white car in the darkness of night, the kind that creeps into the light threatening to swallow it whole. I stopped to get gas with much difficulty for what felt like an eternity. And when I was done, I drove wildly off a cliff next to the gas station into the ocean and was drowning till I woke up. I rarely remember my dreams, so I decided to look up and analyze.
White - “You feel refreshed and have a new outlook on life. You feel at peace and are aware of a new beginning.”
Car - “To dream that you are driving a car symbolizes your ambition and your ability to navigate from one stage of your life to another”
Night - “To dream of night time signifies obstacles in achieving your goals”
Gas station - “To dream that you are at the gas station indicates a need to reenergize and revitalize yourself”
Driving - “To dream that you are driving a vehicle signifies your life’s journey and your path in life”
Drowning - “These dreams usually occur when the dreamer is feeling overwhelmed in real life.”
Water - “Turbulent, choppy waters in which a dreamer fears being swamped or drowning symbolize that you are being overwhelmed emotionally.”
— SmartGirl Dream Dictionary
Moving forward.
