After a few years
when she was 15, her ballet teacher Chelsea Wan saw that she had great
potential in her performance. Therefore, Miss Wan urged her to attend an
international ballet competition which was held in Australia. She even took the responsibility to pay all
the expenses on travel and accommodation, as well as costumes and other
miscellaneous expenses.
Before the competition,
Sandra spent 10 hours every day practicing ballet. While taking meals, she was
thinking about how to improve her ballet skills and performance on stage.
When she
arrived Australia, she locked herself inside the dance room provided by the organizer.
Then she practiced ballet days and nights.
However, she also took enough sleep and a balanced diet every day before
the competition in order to keep herself in the best condition.
The night before the
competition, she was nervous so she prayed to God and finally she fell asleep. She
also slept quite soundly that night.
