Pamindo Mask Dance pratice

Pamindo mask and me wearing sobra

This is my last day of training and thank God and of course, to myself that i can overcome this 20mins Pamindo Mask Dance in just 2 days! Geez, this is crazy.
I woke up in the morning grabbed my mask and play the music straight away. I just brushed my teeth and start dancing before Mbak Wangi watch me again. This time i try dancing with sobra (the hat in Mask Dance), its damn difficult i swear. At least i can memorize all the movements.
All these hardwork and commitment were paid off! My legs are kinda soar but im so happy now i posses two types of Mask Dance from Indramayu.

Me and Mbak Wangi Indriya

I share many things with Mbak Wangi. She is a very descent person. I hope she feels comfortable these 2 days staying at my house. I just cant wait to learn another type of mask dance. I love this traditional dance so much i dunno why. Theres just something behind the mask. Maybe, just maybe, i feel like it wearing a mask because a mask could smile and hide the feeling inside or maybe we can pretend that were smiling for a while.


The thing is 2 days of commitment is nothing compare to what i must do for a bright future. This is nothing and it wasnt even enough. Never satisfy of what you have accomplished. It doesnt mean that we as human never feel grateful for what we already have, but its about doing something beyond your wildest dream. At least if you cant reach the moon, you will land among the stars, not fall to the ground.
