Awards Day 2011

Hey guys! :)

I'm back with my school's Awards Day post! There's gonna be a lot of pictures :) This was the best Awards Day in my school's history of Awards Day, this year the event was held at a different location (finally they changed the venue! xD). My school held it a small hotel which was actually kinda nice, small but modern :) I bet you'd wanna know if I won any prizes...well...I won the Most Exemplary Student award! :D I received a trophy and a certificate! This is my second time receiving the Most Exemplary Award :D *big smile*!
I'M SO HAPPYYYYYYY I could SCREEEEEEEEAM!
heehee. Anyway, this year, the students got to vote which nominees they wanted to receive the prizes. And honestly, I'm still wondering how I got this award because I'm not exactly very popular and socializing is not my best thing :P But THANK YOU THANK YOU my friends, for voting me :)

I was on duty as an usher to welcome the guests and frankly, I am NOT A GOOD usher! >< Moving on, here are some pictures! :)

What I wore: An old but still lookin' new checkered dress (P.S I'm not very good in describing fashion :P) with a black jacket. Tied my hair in the princess style. Played it simple. I was tempted to put on some eyeliner but in the end I didn't but everyone else did when I got there :P All the girls were in heavy makeup! I guess I stood out being all natural :p

My ushering station, this is wear we ushers greet, take attendance and give out door gifts to the guests.
The whole reception usher crew. The teachers looked gorgeous and all dressed up in their traditional attires while I just went with formal :P
Smiling for the camera along with my girlfriends :) They were both in their saris or Indian costumes for their amazing Indian Bollywood performance :)
My best buddy, Jian Lee in his Tunku Abdul Rahman (Malaysia's first Prime Minister) costume for the skit performance. Solo shot! :P
My favorite photo of the day :) My darling Erica and I!
Esther popping by for a picture too :) Erica wouldn't be Erica without her cheeky twin sister Esther :P Both of them have been my loyal besties for 3 years!

Mildred and I<3 Mildred gives the best hugs, not to mention the tightest xD

Performances!
I didn't take any photos of the performances as I was busy with my usher duties and everything so I...heh heh...stole some pics from my school's Facebook page.

Junior Boys' performance. They did really good, my buddy Katrina was their choreographer and personally I think she did a good job. It's tough to train these kids because they're so playful and mischievous :P A couple of my friends and I had a hard time gathering them before their cue to go up on stage :P But they did a great job and the audience wanted an encore so these little boys went up the stage the second time and performed :)


Next, the Chinese Fan Dance, was choreographed by some of the teachers. The dance was good but I liked the first one performed by the Junior Boys better. But overall, the kids in this dance did well too :) I like their fans :D



And lastly, the highlight of the day for me, the Indian Dance! This was my favorite performance of the day, and it was the longest! :P These gals have been practicing really hard for the performance. I'm really impressed, although it was longer than all the other performances , I think it was still the best. Their costumes were very colorful and vibrant and the whole dance was very lively. It was a big hit, one of the pastors invited them to perform at a graduation ceremony.




The Awards!
Teacher Michael and I :)
All I can say is I'm just very happy I received the award!
Not very happy with my pictures, I look like my cheek muscles froze ><


That's all for today!
The holidays are here so hopefully I don't laze around too much and blog more :P
Gotta finish my math too! Working hard already :D (OKAY not exactly. I haven't touched my Math since yesterday. But I will, I will!)


Have a great day~

love love love

Fishing Trip: Day 1

Hiya guys! :)

Just wanted to share the pictures I took from Day 1 of my Fishing Trip :) Yes, I'm on my fishing trip.

Fishing status: Caught 0 Fishes

I love the big shady trees all around the resort!


The chalet's view of the lake :)


My sister and I popping by the fishing club to check on my dad who was busy fishing :)


The Fishing Club!

My dad reeling in some plants, he lacks some fishing skills :P





My sister patiently and quietly waiting for the fishes to bite :)


For some reason, I love to capture my toes with the scenery :P

More toes, more flip flops :P

Getting bored...

It's 6:16 pm and still no fishes...

Others are also waiting for fishes to bite :)

This lady and her daughter (not in the picture) was right next to us and she's a pro! She caught 2 fishes. We were getting kinda frustrated because the fishes only ate her bait and not ours :P

6:20 pm, no fishes :(

I got so tired, hot, frustrated and sticky that I went to where the shallow part was and fed the leftover bread to the little fishies :P Boy, they had a feast. It was kinda fun watching them snatch the pieces of bread from each other. They were so aggressive, I thought they were actually piranhas :P You can't actually see the fishes because they were so swift, and they made lots of ripples.

Instead of fishes, I got mosquito bites. I was seriously mad because I was itching all over. This was one of the biggest ones I got, it swelled up so big! It itches like mad, and hurts like a blue-black. But I took revenge when I slapped the hungry mosquito right off my hand :P It was his last drink of blood :P


After 20-30 minutes later, we decided to call it a day. So we left the club, my dad, my sister and myself. It was not a very productive day but I still enjoyed the scenery. I would like to state that I am not a fishing girl, I don't like it because we have to stay quiet and wait and wait and wait. I hate the waiting part :P My dad had to always remind me to stay patient (coming from someone who lost his own patience frequently :P) But I do enjoy the scenery and the calmness, and I love the evening wind and the view of the sunset. Sometimes, you can actually spot a group of Hornbills flying off :) I always get excited when I spot them :)

Do you enjoy fishing? Have you gone on a fishing trip before? Do share your experiences :D
xoxo

Puny Update and A Little Secret

Hey guys! :D

Wanna update a little before my up coming post, which will involve lots of pictures :D I've been studying and studying and studying and Praise the Lord! I've been passing my tests :D I shocked myself when I actually passed my Science test, I'm seriously clueless when it comes to Science! :P

And also, I watched the Taiwanese romance film, "Secret" or "Bu Neng Shuo De Mi Mi". Have you watched it yet? I'm not a fan of Taiwanese shows, I don't watch them often and Secret is probably the first Taiwanese film I've actually watched. I'm very much interested in Korean dramas and films rather than Taiwanese ones simply because I just basically always watch Korean films more :)

But I'm quite happy with "Secret", it's actually a nice show. I would watch it again :) The movie stars Jay Chou and Kwai Lun Mei as the lead actors. The story line is quite good and has a mysterious touch :P
It's a romance film, so for all you ladies out there, maybe you should check it out too :)


Here's a brief summary:
Ye Xiang Lun is a music student majoring in piano who just transferred to Tamkang, a school famous for its musically talented students, especially those who play piano. On his first day of school, he hears a mysterious melody being played, and following it meets Lu Xiao Yu, another piano major. When he asks her about the song she was playing, she tells him that it is a secret that cannot be told. The two form a friendship that quickly evolves into a romantic relationship. However unbeknownst to Xiang Lun, there is more to Xiao Yu than initially meets the eye.

If you want to know the secret that cannot be told, check out the movie :)
I LOVE the music! I have an obsession with instrumental music nowadays :D Especially those from OSTs. I'm not sure if many people listen to the instrumental tracks in OSTs but I do and I love them :) I'm cool like that :P

Finally, T-ara's latest project is coming up!

The teaser photo looks cool, I notice that some of the girls got a new haircut :D Excited to watch their MV, it's not out at the moment. But the teaser looks fun and exciting. I will update more on them in the coming posts :D

Till Next Time :P
Lots of Love
