GRAND OPENING OF IT DAY.
everyone was out of school but school on internet. sounds weird right?
you can see almost EVERYONE under NCHS list is online. yeah is human traffic jam.
my team started at 9am as some of us woke up late and blur blur still. and officially finished at about 10.30am. we actually started our discussion yesterday, so today everything was quite fast. ate my breakfast while facing computer. normally i don't even have a chance of eating breakfast.

Yesterday 20th October was PROMOTION DAY. yup and we had to go back school. i was down with a little flu since 19October. i was late for dance because of the drowsy medicine. nothing much to describe.

Sunday 19th October. went to help my mum to do some volunteer work. then went home change and headed down to esplanade. i didn't like the contemporary show as much as the ballet one. so seriously i have no comments. but just saying that technically they are good(duh! if not they won't be performing right?)

Saturday. Character dance was ALMOST DONE!! we did it like 3lessons? MAJOR WOW. after that morning class, celine stayed back to attend the next class with me. haha, finally able to persuade her to stay. during the break, we bought bubble tea, donuts, waffles and rice for miss gina and tried to take ATM money with 30bucks. and machine told us unable to withdraw 30 but only 50. we are like 2 idiots hanging around the ATM machine. another class of CSTD sub elementry was indeed quite exhausting.

After the tiring classes, went shopping around parkway parade.
my mum bought the most stuffs. i just bought 1 watch, since my old watch is already spoilt.

SHOPPING TIPS:
1) once you spot something you like, never buy it straight away. try patronise other stalls first and compare the price, and see whether you can ask for discount!
2) never show that you want to buy it badly, the auntie might be mean to increase the price
3) is never a bad thing to try on, so just try on and never listen to the auntie's comments(they sure say very nice lah!) listen to your mum or your friends or even yourself.
4) comfortable are the priority then followed by fashion.

i just love my new watch! most importantly, I LOVE YOU MUM!

I AM A HAPPY GIRL!
well not only xuefang but i am going insane. just because of the good news, i was so excited until i couldn't stop thinking about it. yup, i even went to ballet class in my insane mood. can't stop giggling from home to there and even past the contagious laughter to my class.

today at ballet, ms gina came in with a glum face, it was very obvious. not matter what, she did cheer up in the end, we had jokes from our blonde mavis(she is not blonde but sounds like an american), and not to miss, her cousin charis. suddenly, with one silly idea, grouped in circle, and did isolation of arms(hiphop). it was fun!
depending on our results out on nov or dec, it will decide which one we will be taking, either, intermediate RAD, Grade 7 RAD or Sub-Elementry CSTD. 3 routes, 1 chioce, 1 result. it sounds scary isn't it? seems like it will determine our life! i am worried. just wished that i was the last and had more time. well there's much to regret now, whats over is over. no point of crying over spilled milk.

back to school tomorrow, yup, can't imagine how torturous it will be. and finally i started revision, first stop chemistry textbook. tomorrow continue it. then the file, then SS. well, upcoming of the one whole list of revision, i seriously need to stay off from computer. SHOO! *slaps myself* stick ONE WHOLE BIG PAPER ON THE SCREEN. "STAY OFF, IS DANGEROUS!"

maybe after chinese O, i shall bug xuefang to teach me photoshop, and create my own blogskin! whee~~

meanwhile, don't try eating any dairy products made from china. if you are kiasu, don't eat anything from china =.= please remember to look at the back of the ingredients part to check which place it is shipped from, or made from. DO TAKE NOTE (:

good luck to my remaining 4 ballet friends and also best of luck to all and everyone taking SA2, duh =.= and lastly seniors taking sec 4 Os, people taking O chinese. GOODLUCK!

did i mention i cut my hair, and really have a fringe? hahas

when you have done your best, tell yourself, "is the best, i will not regret."

Labels: ballet, happy day

well yes, my ballet exam is over.
before i forgets, i sincerely thanks those who had wished me good luck. since the day before + in the morning, i kept receiving good luck. i just loved those RAD friends.. Jayne was funny, she wished me good luck with her new number, however i keyed in wrongly, so i asked who are you? she replied, "i am your secret admirer. No lah, i am jayne, hehes." well, there is also wenxin, charis and many more and not to forget the ones in my school. i really appreciates.
even before my exam actually started, miss gina smsed bianca and me, reminding us as usual and also asked us to call her after it ended. hopefully it turns out well. please. she really seems nice rather than the one that almost everyone had described her like "anal kind". just hopes everyone at least have a pass.
after this exam, miss penny decided to let them have CSTD sub elementry rather than RAD intermediate. and i have to wait for them + i cant join them because i have my own class. i feel much more fun in that class somehow.
i just hate exams. is arriving. argh stupid stupid. after my end of year papers, i have CSTD. sort of ready and maybe not. competition is heating up. i hope i can endure it.

i just hate it when i am left with 2 choices. is either A or B. i really can just coop myself in the room for the whole day just to think of it. and sometimes i may just get too emotional. i just need someone to show me the light.

seriously, after yesterday stretch, i am like half dead zombie when i tried to climb up from my bed. ouch here, ouch there, unbearable, it is the first time that from the shoulders till the legs. i could imagine if i am old, how that paralysis feeling is...

tomorrow will be a day for me to get all those steps, and HAVE A BIG GOOD REST. i will just give my best and not coming out in tears saying that i still could have done more. but i just hope, i just wish, all my turns, pointe work and free work are able to pass that mean old hag anal Ms Wu. i will not disappoint my teacher, my senior teachers. hopefully nothing goes wrong. is just that 1hour 10minutes, and determine our 1 whole year madness, craziness, unbelievable training. nothing, please nothing will go wrong.

Labels: ballet

by respecting the privacy of the people, i have already taken out the picture :D thanks to the passer by notice (:

i cant help myself from concentrate about the upcoming ballet exam. like, how would i fair? would i fail? would that anal ms Wu just stand up and scream at me? will she even just give that pissed face or whatever? thousand of that kind of situation might happen just within that 1hour and 10mins.

sharmain and mavis went in. they gave us a good laugh of the happenings in the exams. mavis actually called up miss gina for not bring the identification letter for the exam.. and miss gina said that i bet she gave that kind of innocent smile - trying to cool the person there. the amazing about the 2 of them is that, they actually did grande battement instead of battement tendu. which is so funy. they exclaimed that she isn't as bad as what she might be. and gives also lots of rest for each jump. but it might not be the same nice case for me. Ms Wu actually gave really -unflow- lack of connection exercises. we tried out, it took me quite a while to actually get it.

i hurt my right shin part. which really affects my jumps. today i kind of threw a bit of temper for not getting the steps, and miss gina's face was shown of in shocked. ya it is the first time that i showed it, i really wanted to tell her is not that i am pissed with her but myself. her words gave me more motivation to do well, just for a simple reason, i don't want to disappoint her.

i had fun trying out photoshop maybe i shall ask from xuefang more information on editing pictures.

Last day of the month.

tuesday, i went to ms gina's teacher class at marine parade. had a totally new experience.. before that, there was dance in school till 6pm. then sort of prepared a while and went down like muscles aches a bit here a bit there. reached home about 1030pm. shall not elaborate about it just that i sweat. Ms June Lee said, "For every single lesson you attend regardless of what teacher, you are bound to improve and learn more new stuffs.", "No matter you are bleeding, hurting, lethargic, just hang on for the last 10minutes, have that strong mental mindset."

wednesday, didn't have music! yes. i am a happy girl on that day.

thursday, another training. More scary stuffs heard about the exams. here goes, the examiner, Ms Wu, *SLAMMED* the table and sent girls out during the exams. why did she SLAMMED? because the girls didn't know how to do free works [under the sun given ballet steps using ballet terms]. Thats how scary she is. Ms Gina said, "She is here not to pass you but to FAIL you. So don't even expect any good results." i couldn't agree more with her words.

Friday, well, teachers' day celebration, i could only say that i ran around the whole school before the concert started. the concert is nice anyway especially with ms pey and ms ng wearing school uniform [i have their picture.] immediately the celebration ended, i had to go to compass point to get Ms Gina's Present as we are having a surprise party for ms Gina at the evening. guess what, the present that i had in mind for Ms Gina turns out to be Out Of Stock. so i pleaded the store keepers. 1st girl - i guess she is new, so she keep saying that other branches also might not have the stock, and asked me to wait till next month. 2nd girl(Cashier) - i asked her to call Hougang, which also Out Of Stock. In desperation, i asked her, can you help me check some other branches have stock. and yes, vivo. so i had to take a train down and back up. i couldn't entertain myself because i didn't charge my phone the night before, and i tried to save for the tiny little battery in case of emergency.. as soon as i got home. started her present then making yummy sushi..

this gonna be a long post.

We started planning it when the day[23august] where Ms Gina suddenly cried which totally took all of us by surprise. She didn't tell us why she cried, and it was the first time i saw her crying in class. We made a video for her, which is uploaded in youtube (but i cant find it) hahas. then we tried to make her to get to the venue of party (Sherilyn's house). i guess a lot people will find it funny as in the reason we used. the reason was, Sherilyn sprained her ankle badly, As Ms Gina was with her boyfriend (he was supposedly not to be there but Yoshi forgotten about the event.) *Yoshi is her boyfriend*, she said she doesn't want to visit her like this, then Sharmain went the CC to tell Ms Gina, told her, SHE EVEN CRIED ON PHONE [Sherilyn never cries for such a small thing]. So ended up she had to visit Sherilyn as the next day we are dancing at the venue of examination studio. she actually fallen into our stupid trap. arriving at Sherilyn's house, they blindfolded her. and the party actually started (: everyone was her except rachel. Ms Gina was saying, she really believed the reason and CURSE, SCOLDED Sherilyn all the way from the CC until the venue. We had food, games and went home like 11pm? thanks to adeline's van ride. whee it was fun.

Saturday.
i hate the 1hour bus ride to Bukit Timah. i can say the venue really is ... desolated. the studio is damn small. and i didn't go for morning class because Ms Gina said that she wants me to focus on the rehearsal. i met Jerlene there as she was waiting for Jaime ballet class to end. after all the dancing. it was around 9.30pm. and took a cab home with my maid + we bought our dinner at 10+ at rivervale plaza =.=

Today.
morning had tution then today is the only day that i stayed for 4hours dancing at the CC non stop of RAD work. We had this pianist Mr Martin, which really brightens my day as he will be my pianist for that day rather than Mr Wong. Oh Yeah. but the radio and pianist really has a big difference in the key of music? cant really tell as everyone was so focus and real quiet, concentrated on the works. muscles really aches like hell now.. took another cab which makes 2nd time for this year. Ms Wu also SLAMMED the table again. as all the 4 girls in the exam couldn't handle her steps. and she STOOD UP, and scolded them "HOW LONG DO YOU NEED FOR SUCH A SIMPLE EXERCISE! WORST, YET YOU ALL CAN'T DO! "

tomorrow the sec 3 dancers are going escape. yes!

and sorry for not posting photos. still tidying my computer files.

olympics is sure addictive. cant stop watching and get excited even isn't my own nation competiting.

Congratulation on wining a silver for table tennis. well, public holiday hope is being crashed by china. hahas. i doubt there will be even singapore had the gold medal.

had a hard time during ballet. 2 blisters broke out. as usual they are the watery ones. actually when i stepped into the studio, i started warm up and then carried on with the pointe. however, i think i over- exerted my legs by trying to do those pointe work in the center. when lessons start, i knew the blisters just attacked my mental and limited my physical movements. i thought that miss gina wouldn't be going through pointe, to my surprise, she did it and i suffered badly from it. 1st and 2nd set i was a bit struggling but the pain was bearable. until the 3rd and 4th set i couldn't even go onto my toes, and missed all my steps. to think back, who actually invented that girls have to go on pointe, and ridiculously standing on their toes? i yelled, screamed struggled with the pain as i tried to clean the blisters. at least 4 resting days for my toes being going ballet class again.

there isn't any time left. 9more lessons and judgement will be made. according to miss gina, we have the worst examiner and worst pianist(he plays with his mood, fast or slow isn't constant!). what other worst do i have? common test. i hate it.

Labels: ballet

Common test coming soon.... yet i don't have the sense of urgency. *slaps myself, screaming like a mad woman*

everyone is already in hiatus. i better too. which is i am spending the whole day studying. hopefully i will =.=

14august.
had a big blow. great, exams date are out. all along i had hoped that mine would be in mid or late september. but then, luck isn't by my side. i was considered the first few to be into the exams. 1st sept, 4 sept, 6sept,8 sept. and mine would be 9th sept. which is actually a nice day, and my maid joked about buying 4D. Date:09.09.08 Time: 0930h. being the first few are consider as the lab rats. so at least we can tell what the examiner expects and stuffs.
i am partnering up with another person which is bianca. so nice is that 14august was her birthday. well, ms gina expects us to be uniformed. mistakes must be also same, timing same, height of legs same, head positions same, body positions, and the list goes on. if one fails to do so, the weaker one will be marked down. yup and serious marked down. which i am totally freaked out.

15august.
nothing much really happens. just that the class hates mr goh so much for a single reason. the reason is: "He made us stay back for SSL, when he said on 14august that we don't need as he want to concentrate on 3D." actually i don't find it really bad, but just that my class loves to go home early. For the sake of CT, let's not blame him.

today.
early in the morning woke up and went for chemistry lessons. after chemistry, had to rush for ballet. i was totally late as always. aching hip joints because someone pushed it so hard untill i was so much in agony. but simply i was too tired to think, to talk, to scream. my mum got me blueberry cheese tart. is totally fabulous. love the crust, the cheese!!
taught the grade 4 class their own dance. really had a hard time. as it was during my break time, wanted to catch some sleep.
up next, the RAD class. it wasn't really torturous but really get into the whole freaking exam thing. well, we had to make our moves perfect and stuffs. walked on pointe for 5 rounds. blisters gone worst. had new shoes, and must adapt to it. sweat really a lot today, and totally cause aches to my poor legs. lastly had a good sleep in the evening, not realising that i ate my dinner like 8.30pm =.=

thats all, i will post the east coast trip after my common test. stop my nags here. tatas.

Dainel Powter- You Had A Bad Day.

Ballet Examinations - Going to have the worst and strictest examiner. i might be 1st Sept? or 25Sept. is out. but ms penny forgot to bring the schedule.

too much blow for today. i just need a good rest.

Labels: bad day, ballet

came back from ballet training. should i say that it is the latest timing i reach home myself. my parents went to Malaysia to handle some stuffs and they will be back only on Sunday. so i had to go to school myself, come back from exhausting, tiring, killing, mental challenging ballet training.

today had binomial test, got different answers for n, which is 3, 5, 8,10. thats so far i heard. hopefully no careless mistakes!

tomorrow there is chemistry test, set by mr tien. i don't see that i will pass it, if it tests a lot on those % yield, % purity, % of water in blah blah. i hate that stuffs. hopefully is simple enough.

from school, dragged my feet till ballet class. almost late =.= my stomach was growling while doing ballet =.= well, my teacher corrected me, and showed me, ask me not to worry that much. seriously, there is a big difference between both ballet(RAD[London], CSTD[Australia]). it is still a long way to go. examinations are coming. a lot to think of.

i had this mini adventure in bus 119 as i was trying to get back home. time range: 8.45 to 9.10pm. the bus had a "cat". to be precise, there was "sound of a cat".

i sat in front of a Indian dark guy, muscles were budging out. As i tried to close my eyes to take a nap, i heard "meow" continuously. i didn't really bother as i was really tired. it soon gets so irritating until i feel like standing up and shout shut up. *i was wearing school uniform, so i can't just shout in front of all the passengers.* it was quite obvious that it was man made "meow", perhaps i could realise it because i always see cats near my house. 2 ladies were totally freaked out, and jumped onto the 3-seater seat kept looking at the ground. the bus captain had to stop the bus and check, which was proves that there isn't any cat. i wasn't making an assumption, i saw that Indian guy "meow-ing" away through the left black window panel. as the bus reached the opposite of the Punggol Park (coffee shop), i quickly changed my position of my seat.. it really creeps me out. he might be a pervert, or .... problematic guy.

seriously, i don't wish to take 119 back home again such a late night. it really creeps me out after this weird encounter.

i told my maid about it, she totally agrees with me. and i had a good treat from her! noodles for dinner. is nice. i am indulging in my noodles and of course chocolates. but definitely not chemistry and homework.

look, learn, understand and feel.

i know i am been very lazy to post these few weeks.

next week, more class test. more stress. more dance.

just came back from my exhausting ballet. ms gina just quite strict, maybe is because that ms penny(senior teacher) is coming to watch us on saturday. yup and is this saturday. if we aren't doing well, we will be taken out of the exams. we are being EVALUATED! we did centre pointe work, and i have a good news to say. there is a blister on my left toe! and the skin just peeled off. ehew. i know =.= completed the whole thing by rushing. legs are numbed. speechless, panting. alright enough.

tomorrow there is emaths chapter 6 test. i just hate this topic despite that i loved angles in primary. now, is a totally different case!!

emergency! PLASTER! toodles!

yesterday had ballet lessons.

at first was quite well for the morning class[CSTD]. afternoon class[RAD] was getting more lethargic. and didn't have the mood to do it. and i have forgotten the steps >.<>but i will never ever lose interest in dance.

nowadays, i am being so "BLUR". let me explain why.

First Incident
during CSTD ballet, i totally mixed up the steps of two different exercises. and ended up, everyone was stunned. and i totally don't even know why i did that.

Second Incident
RAD ballet, another mistake. i mixed up with the CSTD ballet. totally not me. it seemed like i just lost everything. and didn't concentrate that well. just like the mind had wandered off somewhere unknowingly.

Third Incident
i was at cathay. just happily step on the upwards escalator rather than the downwards [going down to the first floor]. thanks to xuefang called me, tried to pull me but failed. i jumped like a elephant or extinct dinosaur. i don't even know why did i even do that... ended up xuefang laughing all the way until wisma atrium.. i guess it was around 100m... i was so embarrassed!

didn't shop that much. for once, i didn't buy anything out of the bugis village. have a great shopping trip with xuefang [took my photo while i was eating!!](: of course, i bought presents for cassandra and michelle (:

advance happy birthday to them(: and also those January babies(:

Labels: "blur" incidents, ballet, went out with xuefang

i was just trying out the lock thing yesterday. and somehow i find it troublesome. so forget it.

Friday. well, i see no one cried? actually don't even bother to cry. is like not that someone will just transfer out of school or some sort. we are still in the same school, we still will see each other somehow. there was an argument about the class t-shirt, i guess it was the last argument. since is the last day of secondary 2. and last PE lesson with 2I people.
and ice skating turned out well. despite that i still fall because those new tricks.

Today. finally had my ballet lessons. i seriously had to buck up. i didn't have ballet lessons training for 2 weeks. but in school ballet, i just blindly did and the teacher don't bother to correct me. then today ballet class, we actually had to perform at my primary school for the prize giving with wanling and michel. but i told mrs simon that i can't make it because of dance practices at school and i will miss the next 2 saturday lessons. by then, i had to catch up everyone as we are learning new steps for grade 5. next saturday is nan chiau high school open house, and i thought we don't have to perform i guess. and HOPE SO. i still will go but i simply will just leave the school early.

tomorrow having ice skating lessons and having test. and is the start of november. A WHOLE MONTH OF BUSY PERIOD. Camping, dancing, ice skating, piano training. so much things. headache. body aches. metal breakdown.
