Well...I just realised that I haven't even blog in over 2 months...I guess I'll blog about a story....My story....
About my beloved crew Cript Ballas....On the way to the top...It all started with Ah Jo,Nicky and I hanging out at Tun Jugah Mall last March (2007)...We were street shuffling everywhere we went...Then suddenly we decided to come up with a shuffle crew named "Cript Ballas"....During that time there were only 2 shuffle crews in Kuching...I dont have to mention what crews cuz you already know...I'm here to blog about the full story of Cript Ballas,which includes our performances,events,competitions,downfalls and most importantly...CHAMPIONSHIPS! This is the story of our first season.
When we started this crew,Ah Jo,Nicky and I were the 3 leaders...Our shuffling skills were noob and Ah Jo only knew C-Walk...So we practised for a couple of months,and recruited new crew members such as Sean,Joshua,Murphy and Abel.They were the few earliest members of Cript Ballas.Down the road of practise we came across another potential shuffler,Aaron Chan a.k.a Soonz.He was a good shuffler and also a good friend of mine.Our first exposure of Cript Ballas was at William's Brithday party at his brother's futsal court(KickOff!)..We shuffled there showing people what we were about..Although our skills weren't that good yet,we still shuffled as a dedication to the birthday boy William and to expose ourselves to the public that we're a shuffle crew named Cript Ballas...
Shortly after,our crew member,Sean was leaving Kuching for Perth,Australia...He threw a party at his house and invited all his close friends to say farewell...Cript Ballas also shuffled at his party..but he was the star...Shuffling with tears knowing this maybe the last time that he will be shuffling with us...He was proud,wearing the first Cript Ballas Tee and shuffling his heart out for everyone to see his passion and love for this crew...After the night turned to dawn,we went home and barely slept cuz we had to go to the airport and say goodbye to my 11 years childhood friend...it was a sad day for Ballas..as soon as his plane went off the ground,it started to rain..I guess heaven can feel the sadness in us and cried along with us...

Although Sean was gone,we continued practising and down the road we recruited new members such as Ah Kiong,my brother Wilson,Jason Kon a.k.a Ah Pui,Ah Kiam,Kevin Chai,Edwin,Jeremy and Aaron Law.But we eventually lost Nicky and Ah Jo due to some problems and I was left as the sole leader of Cript Ballas.We started learning routines for our upcoming performance at Yeo's Annual Dinner at Holiday Inn and William's Bowling Event at Riverside Bowl.These were the first 2 official performances for Cript Ballas.
Here are some pics:

After these performances,we came across loads of other performances and events.Going to CHMS No.1 for the Max Studio Talent Audition was one of them.There were 120+ people Auditioning which included singing and dancing...We performed last but we managed to pass the audition.
Well,there are some other left out events during our first season,but this kinda wraps it up. Stay tuned for the story of Cript Ballas' 2nd Season..^^
