Ballet Shoes

I just finished watching Ballet Shoes on youtube. Starring Emma Watson, Lucy Boynton and Yasmin Paige. It's a very uplifting movie. I liked it :)



I saw the movie picture on Siti's blog and I had to watch it :)

Coincidence

Around 10am, I was on the internet. Came across the news of Yasmin Ahmad's passing.


Her passing on is a real loss to Malaysia. One of the rare talents we see today has returned home, may she rest in peace.

It's a coincidence how she passed on exactly a month after Michael Jackson. He on the 25th of June. She on the 25th of July. I don't usually preach these things, but after hearing about the news on Yasmin Ahmad, it just hit me.

Anyway. RIP Yasmin Ahmad, you are loved by so many.

Hello, ice cream man

I've been watching America from West Side Story again and again since last night. Can't get enough of it :) The accent is so cute and the choreography is so ... well just as cute as the accent. We're doing this number for Aunty Farah's class. The choreography is da BOMB. But there's no counting O.o so it's like .. aiiyooo. But class is still a lot of fun :)


I would be at WDA practicing (or in other words sit down, listen to latin american music and watch OTHER people dance). But since the studio is closed, after piano I came home, had a good dinner and here I am :) Although I really shouldn't be here. I really REALLY should be studying.

ANYWAY :)

Next week will be my last guitar class with Chilly ): Booo. I like guitar class. And Chilly is cool :D He'd say, "Okay good." even though I know I did terribly terribly bad. We started Why Georgia (sp?) by John Mayer. ITS TOUGH. lol, after class, I was in a smaller room practicing till I swear my fingers were about to bleed ): Theeen, one of the other teachers slides the sliding door open, and says, "sing me a Michael Jackson song". So I was like, "Uh, okay." I sang black or white. lol he was smiling and he was like, "eh eh, michael jackson! :D wah."
We worked on my exam pieces during piano class. I'll be taking my practical exam next year, but I guess its never too early to be prepared. Besides, I like the pieces. So, no complaints.
After piano class, we were waiting at a traffic light in the car, and an ice cream man stops on our left. Sean was like, "heyyyy Ice cream man.". So I turned to my right, and the big blue container with that contains the goodie-ness of ice-cream was smack right in front of my face. So, rhetorically, I was like, "Mummy maybe we could buy some ice cream right now, right here." and to top it off, I was making pretty huge gestures, like pointing to the ice cream box and making the money gesture where you rub your forefinger and your thumb together.
Anyway.
What I didn't realize was that the ice cream man saw everything. And I think he understood, too. So when I looked at him, he was smiling and like, laughed a little.
Bright red. bright red.
And I never saw that ice cream man, again :)

Sabotage

The performance went okay. Although I messed up the guitar chords towards the end ): 


I had to cut my medley by 2 songs. But I guess it was for the better, 6 songs would've been too much not to mention boring. Congrats to Sheera for winning SAGT :) YAYYY!! Kai and Mel, you guys are awesome and not to mention amazing singers :) No worries, you'll knock 'em dead with your next performance.

Physics tuition was all about Pascal's principle, car brakes, and sabotaging cars. At least Mr. Yeoh's teaching ways kept me awake. I swear I was so tired after Hari Koko at school, I could've slept through an earthquake, tornado and the loudest storm you'll probably ever hear all at once. Had dinner at a Nyonya restaurant. I never get why they turn the air conditioning to full blast. The place could've pass off for the north pole.

I've major cleaning up to do. ):


And uh. YEAH !  :D

17 Again

I juuuussst finished the movie. 
I liked it :) I am proud to announce, I've officially fallen into the whole Zac Efron pit(?). He's adorable ! :) The movie was funny, and juuussst nice. There ain't no other way to explain. It was a good movie, I enjoyed it, and I'd definitely would want to watch it again sometime.
Me and the family planning to watch Ice Age 3 this Saturday after Latin. Daddy won't be around ): boo. And then this Sunday it might be Harry Potter 6 with Trishi and Lat. I want to go with the DTB peeps (cheyyh) too but they're planning for a saturday/friday outing. 
Anywho!
Guitar lesson was fun. I learned Bubbly by Colbie Callait. I think it was more for the plucking technique rather the fun of the song. Chilly ( guitar teacher ) was writing the chords down, and I was practicing on my guitar, and I hear, "Okay .. verrrryyy simple." I look up at the manuscript book, 
....
Chhhh yeah sure. Verryyyy simple.
But I enjoyed the class.
Mosquito's are on a mission to suck out whats left in me. I think I'll shower and then practice for this friday's performance. I just remembered theres a rehearsal tomorrow and I'm nowhere near ready. 
Nowhere.
