In London

2004-11-15T16:00:00.000-08:00

Hiya all u peeps!! sorry i haven't updated in a long time...

Well, i'm currently in London, dancin a lot, tuesdae to saturdae. I kinda miss home but atleast coz i'm stayin with my fav cousin, i feel more at home and not in a foreign country. =) I've more or less gotten over the jet-lag, but still not used to the temperature yet!! It can be bright and sunny, quite warm, then all of a sudden, it gets pretty cold and dark... The 4pm here is lyk the 6pm in Singapore!! So sometimes i get confused with the time... hehe

My cousin and aunt will send me to ballet classes. I usually go to a teacher's class. He's from brazil i think. His name is Renato Peroni. He is a ballet master with Royal Ballet. One of his very good dancers is Tamara Rojo!! Go to go check her http://www.tamara-rojo.com/marcos.htm biography. I'll bring photos of Renato back for u guys to c. So cool. I'm actually learnin under the teacher who taught her!!! Wheeeee. I'm currently learnin a lot, body aching, feet tired... I actually did a hard step!!! The beating 3 times thingie!!! But i dunno how to spell it... Ask my mom wat i'm talkin about.

Sometimes i'll do basic classes and sometimes professional classes. I get quite intimidated in the professional classes coz they r all sooooo good. Most of the girls are swayed-back too. Once, Renato placed me in between a good teacher and a famous dancer at the barre. I was terrified and stressed!! ugh.

Now, i understand how the basics are soooo important, especially for us, the younger generation. =) I can now balance on demi pointe and do fast foot work. It's very Balanchine and Maggie Black technique, New York technique.

I've done quite a few classes with professionals such as Rita, Ola (teacher from Switzerland), etc. Having lots of fun, watched a few movies like Shark Tale, The Day After Tommorow, The Lizzie Mcguire Movie, Freaky Friday, and the extended versions of Lord of the Rings (The Fellowship of the Ring and The Two Towers) There's a new playstation 2 game... It's Lord of the Rings!! I want it!!! But waitin for the price to go down first... I miss u all very much. What has been happening for dance group practices lately? Are u learning new dances? Keep me posted on what's going on. =)

I gotta go help with cleaning, cya!! =)

Nooo!!

I really can't believe it that the holidays are practically over!!!!! Noooo!! They came and went before I could actually start enjoying them. :( Sighz Well, At least the end of the year holidays aren't that far away... So let me give you a brief rundown on what happened during the short week.
I started playing Rune Scape on Saturday coz Audrey introduced it to me. It's sooooo fun!! Thx Au!! I can't believe that practically no one in the dance group in school which I asked plays it. Anywaes, Mel celebrated her bdae on Tues at a chalet, but we stayed over in the chalet on Monday. Min Li, Min Yi, Min Min & Mel's friends came on tues. We had sooooo much fun!! Wheeee!! We went to the beach and dug a few holes, trying to make the deepest hole. But..... before we dug the whole 1 foot deep, to our shock, we found many clumps of earthworms inside!! The worms were in 3 out of 4 holes we dug. We were extremely creeped out and screamed when we found them. They were as thick as my little finger!!! Ewww. We closed the holes up so that no poor innocent sole would step in the holes. Then, we went back to the 2 rooms we rented and ate lunch and snacks while waiting for the sisters to arrive. Then, we sprayed our hair red, green and purple!! Hehe. We cut the cake and we went swimming. Haha so fun. We picked coins from the bottom of the pool as a competition. Then, one by one we got out. Min Li and I were the last and most unwilling to get out. While we were the only ones in the group still in the pool, we took turns to throw coins into the pool and the other will pick them up. Haha Min Li kept stepping on the coins so that I couldn't pick them up. haha. After everyone had their baths, we ate dinner and went to the park to blow bubbles. Then, we went to the carpark to play with sparklers. It was so funny, coz Deanna and Min Min were terrified of the whistling sparkles. Then, when everyone left, the Kwok sisters, Mel, my mother and I got ready for bed. Min Min looks soooo cute in her big night gown. Hee hee. We kept talking until we finally were too tired.
Well, I don't really feel like typing the rest of the holidays coz not much interesting stuff happened. Cya!! :)

Whee!!

2004-09-05T20:12:00.000-07:00

I'm sooooo happy it's the school holidays now. What a relief. :) Anywae, I just started playing Rune Scape. It's sooooooo nice. No wonder why there seems to be plenty of ppl playing. Somehow, many ppl are 13 yrs old!! Heh. I was really lost at first, but then this really nice guy came to help me. :) Haha. I've been playing computer games a lot, instead of holiday hmwk. Eeew. I wish that the holidays can be longer, coz 1 week passes in a few seconds. Heehee. I woke up really late todae, coz i slept pretty late last nite. I'm trying to grow my nails again, but unfortunately, I'll have to cut them once school re-opens, and I won't be able to play the guitar properly. :( Well, atleast I can grow my left thumb nail coz I won't need it. Sighz, I hope that the holidays will last longer, coz time realli flies now. Dunno why. Soz, nothing more I think. Cya!!

Oops

Oops. heh. I haven't been updating for a loooooooooooooonnnnnnnnnnnnnnngggggggg time. *grins sheepishly* yea. Haven't really had the time. :( Lets see... Welllllll........ On Saturdae, the 1 which we had the sarbatoare concert, I was lyk pretty sad everything was over when we came home. But guess what?! We turned the tv on and Anastasia was playing. We witnessed Anastasia doing the Charleston really quickly. and later some dancers were doing the cancan and they formed a semi-circle, screamed and fell into a split one by one. hehe. Anywae... my muscles are currently complaining a lot. So annoying. I haven't been dancing for around more than a week coz I'm sick...... sighz. But I'm still going for dance class tomorrow. I don care anymore. Can't stand the torture. For the past month, we've been dancing so many times a week, then suddenly, nothing. ugh!! I can't believe how fast days pass.... Aiyah. There's school tomorrow... Can't sleep in. anywae, I gotta go to church soon. :) cya!!

Yayyayayayyay!!

2004-07-09T05:59:00.000-07:00

So I'm kinda asking everyone I see. :) I've sold 6 form thingies!!! yay!! I know. Lame. Today's Friday, so my cousins just left our house. Ugh. Everyone's going to have a very very very tiring week ahead of us... sighz. Well, gotta go now. :( cya!!

Saturdae

2004-07-03T01:06:00.000-07:00

Today Miss Deans did more of Sunday By The Sea with us. :) Then some girls did a ballet class with Mr. Neo. (I didn't because I wasn't selected to do so. :() Then we came home and ate lunch while watching some shows we taped. Later we had guitar class. Ouch. Couldn't play properly because my hands are injured from PE. (Netball) Then we came home and I played some computers games. So now I'm updating my blog. :) hehe. Another short entry. :) cya!!

Today

2004-06-30T02:36:00.000-07:00

Sighz. I'm just feeling so tired. Stupid homework. I can't seem to be able to find anything about Singapore's Forefathers. Grrrrrr. I'm kinda frustrated with my really confusing Math homework. I miss NZ. :( I suppose that this is a really short post because nothing wonderful (except a not-as-good-as-my-old-math-teacher is teaching us math....) So nothing else. c ya!!

Yesterday

2004-06-30T02:28:00.000-07:00

Yesterday... Nothing much happened. The same usual torture. But we were weighed and stuff. Guess what? I'm 169 cm!! But I put on 2.5 kg since January. So now I'm 50.5kg. But only because I grew 2 cm. Now, I think I'm at least 2 cm taller than everyone in class. :) Fear me!!!!! hehe. So when I came home I couldn't go online. Why? Must finish homework!!!! Sighz. Oh yeah, I forgot to mention: Our chinese teacher is soooooo horrible!! She didn't give us our holiday homework (a book review/s) and after much of our innocent bargaining for our rights, she wanted us to finish reading at least 1 story and hand in the review by tomorrow!! If not she'd minus marks!!! Tell me. Just how unfair is that? Everyone in class is so angry with her. Now I shall write about today.

Hehe. I didn't have any time to do this on Monday, so I'm doing my post today. Let's see...... What happened...... Well, school was killing me!!!!!! So boring!!! Wake up so early!!! Homework!!!!! Ugh. A nightmare that is going to last for like, 10 weeks has just begun. :( After assembly, I was so relieved to be back home. But I couldn't rest because I had to leave again at 3.55pm coz of Melissa. (Melissa has a ballet class at 4. My mother teaches at 4.30. My class only starts at 5.30!! Well, due to lack of transport, had to go to school for dance class earlier.) Had lots of fun dancing. I reached home at about 8 something. So I ate dinner while watching Fear Factor. :) So, I gotta write about yesterday and today now. :)

:'(

2004-06-26T23:58:00.000-07:00

Sighz, so sad. SCHOOL IS STARTING TOMORROW!!!!!!!! I'm so dead. I really need more rest and I so do NOT wish to cut my nails. :(:(:( Well, all good things must come to an end. Today I woke up at about 10.25am. Then I ate a sweet and "junk food" breakfast(hehe) while watching Melissa play playstation. Then I watched the couples special Fear Factor. Yes!!! A couple I DON'T like was eliminated!! yay. :) Later, I finished my homework (phew!!) before eating lunch. (fried rice) So I packed my bag and am on the computer now!! :) I'm going for church soon. :) I'm only going to cut my nails at night. :) Now, I shall enjoy my last few hours with my remaining long nails. (Later I'll try and do my best to cut my nails off in 1 piece. :)) cya!!

:( :)

2004-06-26T01:18:00.000-07:00

My nails!! Nooooooo!!!! I had to cut my long, beautiful nails on my left hand for guitar class today after dance!!! Well, I managed to cut them off in 1 piece. (Yesterday) So now I have a hand with short nails and a hand with very long nails. After dance, Dan did his break dancing to the "Ease On Down" music. He was soooo cute!! :) At the end he did a lil pose that Sara taught him. Awwwwww. Then, we went home for lunch (leftover chicken rice) and watched some shows we taped. :) Later, we went for guitar class where we learnt some new chords. Now, I'm at home typing this. Later my parents are taking Melissa and I to watch a movie at Plaza Singapura. :) Sighz..... School is starting in 2 days. :( Gotta cut my long nails!!!!! :( Well, I'll be looking forward to the Next holidays. :)

2004-06-25T05:49:00.000-07:00

After dance today, I was feeling really tired and not very well. So I went home, ate lunch and dived into bed for a nice long nap........ Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz Ah. After waking, I was sooooo hungry. Dunno why because it was a strange time. I had chicken rice!!! Then, my cousins came. :) Well....... Mel and Daniel are watching me. And Felicia is playing with some animals. Now Daniel joined his sister and they are making a lot of noise. Making the animals jump and chase each other. Daniel was so cute. He made the animals jump from place to place and when it landed in front of Melissa he said "Sorry Melissa" really quickly and started making noise again. Well..... they are gone now. So...... c u!! :)

Yawn

2004-06-24T04:32:00.000-07:00

Sheesh. I'm feelling really sleepy. After dance today, Mel and I went to get a haircut. :) We ate visited popular and a cool shop. The shop had wonderful variations of jeans that fitted EVERYONE. Including me!!! :) So now I have 3 pairs of cool, new and nice jeans. :) (1 from NZ and 2 from the shop at Thompson Plaza.) I didn't do any homework today. (Still have a lot left.......) Why? I was helping Mel to type some looooooong stuff. Yay yay yay!!!! Jojo tagged me. hee hee. I know, lame right? Well I gotta eat dinner now. cya!! :)

Ugh

2004-06-23T01:25:00.000-07:00

Sighz. I'm feeling so tired today and I have to finish all my homework. (I've got tons!!!!)Help me!! I'm still feeling weird, because the NZ trip went in a flash. Feels like I didn't leave Singapore at all....

Yay!!

2004-06-22T23:48:00.000-07:00

The trip to NZ was really fun!! :)
I had a really great time shopping, dancing and sight-seeing!
Everyday was packed with activities. Phew! I'll be suprised to find someone not tired at all! The girls in Chilton were very nice.
They are brilliant dancers!!! hehe, I was struggling pretty badly with the first open class we had. No matter how hard I tried, my limbs got tangled! After that class, my fingers were shaking pretty badly. :( The Mcdonald's at NZ is sooooooo expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! A fillet o fish cost $3.70 and it's 1/2 the size of the burgers in Singapore! There were many cool lil things to buy at NZ, but a lot of them were expensive. Plenty of us bought mood rings. :) The sights in NZ are breath-taking!! The plains were endless with cute lil sheep, horses and cow grazing on them. We even got to see a double rainbow!! :):) On 1 of the long bus rides, we watched the first Lord Of The Rings. Believe it or not, I never watched Lord Of The Rings before. Yup. But after watching the show...... I love it!!! On the flight back to Singapore, I watched the other 2 shows. There's been another Tolkien fan added to the list. Sighz... Right now I'm soooo dead.. With lots of uncompleted homework. die die die... well, I better finish it. cya!! :)
