today was the July intakes Extra Curicular Activities (ECA) Day/student council charity Carnival :D
first the charity carnival, it was AWSOME! a lot of nice things x_x too bad i didnt buy anything haha ><
as part of ECA day, the dance club would always have performances to draw more members into our club. in january, more than 100+ students signed up! O: that’s an achievement!
been practicing for a few weeks with the others for this performance now with Mr William, our ever funny and humourous instructor!
very very short i know, but most of the time have been put into mastering the techniques. (a few bonks to the head were inevitable =x=)
basically this song was set in the 1970s – tight jeans, greasy hair, leather jacket, polka-dotted long dressed and all.
so we were dressed like we just came from a time machine XP (the dresses we rented from a costume studio)
we met up at ECA centre at 2pm to have a final run through. our performance was posponed from 3pm to 3.30pm due to unknown reasons :p the boys were practically crying when they were putting on the hair gel to flatten their hair LOL!
well here it is~
Song : Greased Lightning from the movie Grease
Couples: Jay Sen – Jessica Lim (red shirt with white polka-dots, black skirt) Andrew – Hui Wen (blue dress with flower patterns) Aizat – Yvonne (yellow dress with flower patterns) Jia Yi – Man Yang (white outfit with coloured polka-dots) Daniel – Me (black dress with white polka-dots:X)
all i can say was …. IT WAS SO FREAKIN HOT! T_T i was sweating like a waterfall lol. but all in all, i loved it!
always loved performing, and always will :D
ps: while dancing and taking pictures, mr william was like : pooi leng! open your eyes!
I WAS BORN WITH SMALL EYES OK??!! T______T
here’s a video of us practicing in the ECA centre just before the show :p
Not because i was upset, but simply because i was reminded of my dad.
Today, Mrs Banu let us watch music videos as part of our creative writing response.
the song Butterfly Kisses was, in a word, beautiful!
So i decided to dedicate this post to my family
To my super over-protective, confident, strong, loving, think headed, ambitious, workaholic father who:
has the most contagious laugh
is not good at teaching (gah … driving)
is quite forgetful
is the reason for my American accent
would buy (almost) anything for us without a second thought
has the driving skills of an F1 pro
gives the best warm bear hugs
pampered but knows how to not spoil us
needs AT LEAST 6 months to carry out a promise :p
There’s two things I know for sure She was sent here from heaven, and shes daddys little girl As I drop to my knees by her bed at night She talks to Jesus, and I close my eyes And I thank God for all the joy in my life, but most of all, for
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair "Walk beside the pony daddy, its my first ride." "I know the cake looks funny, daddy, but I sure tried." Oh, with all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night
Sweet sixteen today She’s looking like her momma a little more every day One part woman, the other part girl To perfume and makeup, from ribbons and curls Trying her wings out in a great big world, but I remember
Butterfly kisses after bedtime prayer Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair "You know how much I love you daddy, but if you don’t mind I’m only going to kiss you on cheek this time." With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses at night
All the precise time Like the wind, the years go by Precious butterfly, spread your wings and fly
She’ll change her name today She’ll make a promise, and I’ll give her away Standing in the bride room just staring at her She asked me what Im thinking, and I said, "Im not sure, I just feel like I’m losing my baby girl." Then she leaned over, and gave me
Butterfly kisses, with her mama there Stickin little white flowers all up in her hair "Walk me down the aisle daddy, its just about time." "Does my wedding gown look pretty daddy?" "Daddy don’t cry." With all that I’ve done wrong, I must have done something right To deserve a hug every morning, and butterfly kisses I couldnt ask God for more, man, this is what love is I know I’ve gotta let her go, but I’ll always remember Every hug in the morning, and butterfly kisses…
To my caring, loud, slow, sometimes clueless and busy-body mother who :
has super good memory (unlike me)
teaches better than my dad XD
first taught me how to write chinese caligraphy
first taught me how to make origami (it was a boat :p)
loves to "tao jia huan jia" when shopping
understands more than my father that I love The Arts
would ALWAYS make me go get a hair cut
nags, but less than my grandmother @.@
She was so young with such innocent eyes She always dreamt of a fairytale life And all the things that your money can’t buy She thought that he was a wonderful guy Then suddenly things seemed to change It was the moment she took on his name He took his anger out on her face She kept all of her pain locked away
Oh mother, we’re stronger From all of the tears you have shed Oh mother, don’t look back Cause he’ll never hurt us again
So mother, I thank you For all that you’ve done and still do You got me, I got you Together we always pull through We always pull through We always pull through Oh mother, oh mother, oh mother
It was the day that he turned on his kids That she knew she just had to leave him So many voices inside of her head Saying over and over and over, "You deserve much more than this."
She was so sick of believing the lies and trying to hide Covering the cuts and bruises (cuts and bruises) So tired of defending her life, she could have died Fighting for the lives of her children
All of your life you have spent Burying hurt and regret But mama, he’ll never touch us again
For everytime he tried to break you down Just remember who’s still around It’s over, and we’re stronger And we’ll never have to go back again
I love you mom
To my 2 crazy, fun, whacky sisters who:
look like me but are completely different
I love with all my heart
love to tease each other
tell me their problems
give me weird nicknames
let me call them by weird nicknames
breathes down my neck whenever I use the computer
loves to come into my room and read on my bed
She, won’t get off the phone, she won’t leave me alone When I’m talking to that guy She, can be a real nightmare, gets me to do her hair And says it never turns out right But when I put on a face, she can tell Cause she knows me so well
Closer than my closest friend, someone who will be there to the end My sister, sister Deeper than the deepest sea, no one loves you like your family My sister, sister
She, reads my diary, she borrows clothes from me And I never get them back again And she (and she), locks the bath room door, says five minutes more And an hour later I’m still not in And sometimes we fight, every family does (oh yeah) But that can’t change our love
To celebrate the good times, to help me through the hard times To bring me down to earth, remind me what’s important And who comes first? Who comes first? Gotta tell me who I’m talking ’bout My sister, sister (Oh yeah) and who comes first? Ain’t no doubt about it My sister, sister
She, watches out for me, I know she’ll always be By my side (by my side)
To my busy-body, somewhat arrogant, hyper, energetic, loud mouthed little brother who :
i adore
loves the colour green
has a smile that would brighten up any room
thinks girls are icky (for now anyway :P)
would do something when not asked
would never do as asked
has baby pictures anybody would go gaga over :X
is not as hygienic as i have liked >_>
never thinks before talking
has handwriting i can faint when looking at
talks to himself in the toilet
COULDN’T FIND A SONG FOR A LITTLE BROTHER! T.T
it’s amazing how beautiful songs and lyrics can be :]
today was G1’s turn to present the LAN assignment.
our topic? Buddhism.
yeah i know, sounds easy but there are (unfortunately) a lot of parts to it ._.
i actually texted my foster bro for more info lols.
i wanted to present maybe the story of the Buddha as it’s more interesting, but then Mr Irwan said we have to present more on the moral part. (eg. The 5 Precepts)
so this is what the final editted slides look like:
hehe~ nice right? ^^ i tried my best to squeeze everything into as little slides as i could.
at first Esther, KJ and Chee Fong were to present with me. but i decided to do it alone. cause what if they asked questions about Buddhism, and the others can’t answer??!!
eg. KJ: The Buddha’s from India?? O_O
-________-" die.
the Q&A art was probably the funniest/weirdest part of the presentation.
why was G3 going all "woooooooo!" when i said Kai Vin’s name? (sry if i spelt his name wrong) ~.~
overall i think the presentation went well. can’t wait to see Andrea and Sam’s presentation :D
before i even stepped out of my apartment, already got a lot of ppl send sms to me and wished me. old classmates, new classmates, friends, family. very very happy XD
i went to bakery this morning to buy a cake to treat Raifana cuz yesterday the boys were teasing her, she had a rough day :/ the baker asked me if it was a special occasion, and he gave me a free cupcake when i said it was my birthday! LOL! so nice~ complete with candle :D
ok, so i went to school and found out raifana had an interview with Monash! :( so she wasn’t in school. I ate the cake when i got back home :X i know eric wanted to do something to me but as i am a girl, he can’t do the same thing as they did with the guys :X
i love my classmates so much!! they sang happy birthday to me, thrice in one day! LOLS~~
3rd July, Friday
Weekend has finally arrived!!!! super tired week, i planned to sleep all i wanted but today i had some plans.
Today, i am going to meet 3 Auditioners (1st meeting)! 2 of which are girls studying in KL (Qing and En) and 1 boy from sg (my best audi friend/cpl: Daniel!) :D Daniel’s in KL for a school trip so he wanted to meet up with the 3 of us girls.
6.30pm, went to KTM station to take a train to Midvalley Megamall. went to find Qing at MPH bookstore. she said en was sick and couldnt come :( Daniel was running late cuz he was confused about the public transport system in m’sia :p but, he got onto a shuttle bus by luck lol! we chatted for a bit. qing is doing music course in uni! i’m so jealous!!! T_____T
so me and qing went to find daniel when he arrived. qing led the way as i had only been to midvalley for …. 3 times? :p he said he was bringing 1 friend but 2 more said they wanted to come so he can’t say no right?
we went to this restaurant to eat :
omg the pau so cute!!!! <3
Daniel paid for us <3
while walking around the mall, i saw this HUGE poster of the Rexona + Audi No Sweat competition on display outside Watsons. i dragged qing and daniel to pose with me :X
my 2 fav photos! <3
later~ we helped daniel and his friends get a taxi back to their hotel cause not one of them spoke Malay! XD
then Qing drove me home. we chatted non-stop in the car XD uber nice girl.
i had to wait ard 30 mins for the train to Midvalley there. and when it did arrive, before i could even get to the door, the train was full.
I HAD TO WAIT FOR ANOTHER TRAIN! ok so wait lor …. 2nd train : got to the door but STILL FULL!!!!
Malaysians are so damn stupid!
YOU HEARD ME!!! got space in the train also crowd at the door, move inside a bit also like want to die!
@#$!%^&*#%!^&$%t^@#$%^!
wait 10 more mins for the 3rd train….. finally got on. time spent at KL central : almost 1 hour
but at the Midvalley station I NEARLY COULDN’T GET OUT OF THE TRAIN!!!
reason?
ppl crowd at the door again, squished like tuna in a can again, was shoved around again, say excuse me again and again … weekends are horrible at the train stations >< … so not used to the crowd, i never had to shove back in Cameron T.T
NOTE TO SELF : NEXT TIME SWITCH TRAINS AT KL,NOTKL CENTRAL LIKE NICHOLAS SAID! bu ting lao ren yan, chi kui zai yan qian …
