Ballet Concert 2008-Silver Swan By The Shore

Finally, the days of my ballet school, Federal Academy of Ballet's annual charity concert was held on the 5th & 6th August 2008.
I must say it was the best day and we had heaps of fun. I just don't know how to express all of it in words, indescribeable, so I'll just let the pictures tell you...
Here are some of the behind the scenes and just pure fun & excitement!

I passed!!!

*:*nasty blisters...ouch!*:*

Today I had my mock ballet exam for my Intermediate level, had to retake this exam as I didn't pass my mock a few years back and this time I passed!! I was so suprise to know that I pass because there's some reason why I felt so...


1) I did an exercise at the barre which is suppose to be an Advance Foundtion level(which I am in currently) difficulty and applied it to my Intermediate level by mistake(as both exercise are similar)

2) My double pirouttes was awful all the way

3) When it came to en pointe, my point shoes kept slipping off the back from my feet and therefore my feet were all so wobbly while dancing on it(I call it a total shoes malfunction!)


What a disaster!!! But I'm so happy I finally managed to pull it through this time. Having a couple of blisters on two of my toes(as shown above) at the end of the day BUT hey!..it was all worth the pain isn't it?


Anyway, real exam here I come!!!

VIP Access!

Yesterday I had an interview with Cathay Airlines for the position as flight attendant...
Results? ::unsuccessful::
Winson took me along with him to the new launch of Envy Magazine @ Maison. I had so much fun with him at the event.
"I was totally in the world of part models and part celebrities. Total VIP access! Not forgetting the free flow of alcohol!"
Thanks to gorgeous and talented Winson for taking me along and I totally LOVE two of your garments that you designed and was presented at the event!!
Keep up the good work Winson! OH! And I love what you wore to the event.
Came home at 3am...and hit me snooze mood "on"

Stupid ladies!!!

I don't know what's wrong with people these days. They are so uncivilised/uneducated at all.
This is what happened, it was raining in the evening today, so I was at the train station trying to get a cab to get back home. But got to know that there isn't any cab lining up as how it usually does. So I waited and waited till I saw a cab driving in, and there were someone inside getting down so i stand under the taxi stand waiting for the earlier customer to get down from the cab. And just as I was about to walk towards the cab, out of nowhere came this one lady barging through my way to open the cab's door and I was just so shocked to my disbelief. I almost went up to her and just tell her right to her face that I was there first. Arghh!! And to my knowing, there's another lady standing just right behind me, I saw another cab coming and she quickly rushed to that cab behind the earlier cab which that first lady stole from me! Just because I was just being so called nice enough to just let it be when I "lost" my first cab to that stupid lady doesn't mean you can just take my the other one too. I mean how in the world can a person just do such thing, don't you know what courtesy and manner is? Haven't you been taught by your parents or at school at least? And I have to mention out here that both stupid ladies are Indians, am not trying to be racist here or something but I realise it's always the Indians that does such immoral stuff to me. I don't apply this immoral act to all the Indians out there or to my friends who are Indians, but jsut to these two ladies. I was so damn pissed at today's incident! Mind you two ladies to get back to school and learn your manners from scratch for God's sake!

Special dedication...

And so we talked all night about the rest of our lives
Where we're gonna be when we turn 25
I keep thinking times will never change
Keep on thinking things will always be the same
But when things change this time we can't turn back
No more hanging out cause we're on a different track
And if you got something that you need to say
You better say it right now cause you don't have another day
Cause we're moving on and we can't slow down
These memories are playing like a film without sound
And I keep thinking of that night we had
I didn't know much of love
But it came too soon
And there was me and you
And then we got real close
Stay at home talking on the telephone with me

We'd get so excited, we'd get so scared
Laughing at our selves thinking life's not fair
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be
Sis Forever

So if we get a new life
And we make the big changes
When we look back now
Will our jokes still be funny?
Will we still remember everything that went so wrong?
Still be trying to mend all the things back
Will he still look at the things all the same way?
Can we ever find a way that won't ruin us both?
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly
And this is how it feels

As we go on
We remember
All the times we
Had together
And as our lives change
Come whatever
We will still be
Sis Forever

La, la, la, la?
Yeah, yeah, yeah
La, la, la, la?
We will still be sis forever

Will we think about tomorrow like we think about now?
Can we survive it out there?
Can we make it somehow?
I guess I thought that this would never end
And suddenly it's like we're sisters again
Will the past be a shadow that will follow us 'round?
Will these good and bad memories fade when I leave this town
I keep, I keep thinking that it's not goodbye
Keep on thinking it's a time to fly....

~I love you sis~

Emo out of the blues

This morning as I was on my way for my ballet class, I don't know why but something just came through my mind telling me that I should warn my sister to help protect herself against him. I guess I was just reacting as a protective sister naturally over her younger sister. I felt that I should just say it out to her so I texted her(even though I will be seeing her later too at ballet). She said to me it sounded random, yes I have to agree it sounded random but it's just basic instinct, afraid that something might happen. I even skipped my ballet class, sitting outside the studio talking to my sister over it. It was a long solid an hour thirty minutes talk. There were laughter and there were also serious matter. Am I being too protective over my own sister? I just feel like I should do all this, to guide her and to teach her what I can, as much as I can before it's too late. I would definitely want to see her being able to stand on her own two feet, being independent. There's nothing more I could ask for from her, but to see her happy at the end of the day, because I know I'll be the one smiling with her too.

*

Another thing was, as soon as I got back home after ballet, I turned on me computer and found out I received an offline message from my Slovak friend, Lukas. He told me he was about to leave for Mexico and just wanted to say goodbye to me. I got so emotional reading the message and tears came down. I wonder why did he not mention to me about this much earlier so I could at least spend more time talking to him before that. I am missing him tremendously. I hate goodbye! Why is everyone who's close to me are leaving one by one? I can't take it anymore. I shall one day leave too aye?

Fast forward!

Everything that happened today felt just like someone pressing on the 'fast forward' button. LOL! First, this morning I found myself waking up at 1pm(so I shall say this AFTERNOON) which I don't really wake up that late, I was so shocked and my eyes were just so wide open in disbelief when I saw the clock. The reason why that late? Last night I only got to bed in the wee hours working on my next presentation for Monday *sobs* I was so dead tired for nuts! And the next thing I knew, my phone rang, a text message from Lydia asking me out for coffee at 3pm. So I told her it's on. Rushed in getting ready for a rendezvous with Lydia and also a gym-date after that with me sis. Got over to Startbucks at Amcorp Mall and it was a great time catching up with her after so long, even though it was only for a short time as she's got to rushed off to Bangsar for another rendezvous. Miss you and thanks for coffee, Lyd! *xoxo* Then I rushed over to the gym and waited for me sis to get over. And then came hot yoga...I seriously don't know what was going wrong with the yogi as he was doing the poses really really superly extremely FAST! LMAO! Especially the 'sun salutation'! I think at the speed that he was doing, bend forward and bend backwards and stretch...whatever...someone is gonna break their back and just die on the spot in the studio! I mean...what's the rush? Doesn't he know that yoga is one form of an exercise which requires slow motion? I mean com'on...this is just too much for me and it's definitely ridiculous! Out of this world! Nuff said. Hope I'm not ranting too much.

Bruises + back aches

The title says it all. Haha! I'm actually refering the title to what happened at gym on Tuesday, which was my gym-date with my sis and Wednesday, my hot yoga day.

Lets start off with Tuesday...

Went to the gym as promised for a gym-date with sis and we started working our arses off on most of the cardio machines. Approximately after an hour on cardio, we both decided to cool down for abit to catch some breath and while doing so we went to the bar by the walls to stretch out a little(one leg up straight on the bar, and slide it down the bar into a split!) After doing so for both sides, we then decided to go into the empty studio to work on our dance. And I suddenly thought of giving it a shot of doing my old choreography at that moment and coincidentaly my sis had the music in her MP3 player, so it was a green light! Took her MP3, plugged it into my ears and I started dancing. And if you all are wondering how did I get the bruises, well because in this choreography there're many parts that incudes split poses. So...there you go, BRUISES! On me left knee basically cause it's always a right leg front split. And I did that dance over and over again to be exact =p My poor lil' knee... Won't be wearing any short shorts and skirt for the time being *winks* or apply some coverstick/concealer, perhaps? *LMAO*

And comes Wednesday...

As I've mentioned earlier that today is hot yoga day. My my my...was the poses yesterday out of this world or what? The 'sun salutation' is what causes my entire back ache i assume as it has heaps of 'cobra' pose and not forgetting back bend! Not quite out of this world but probably it's just me(haven't been doing much stretching for my bod lately) I have to say here too that for the past 1 week I did not attend any yoga classes cause I wasn't feeling too well. So I guess that explain it all... Hence to my back ache, it has been making me look like a human-like robot! How else weird can it get other than that? *sobs* Hope the aching ease off before this Saturday or else I won't be able to attend my ballet lessons *fingers crossed*

Anyway, back to update about Thursday(today). Had presentation today for business communication class. I did on a product about Singapore Airlines A380. It was so so fun! I feel so proud presenting it. After my group presentation, my group members and myself went out to the cafeteria for tea break and what else can we do other than to...camwhore! *LOL* Had so much fun with them and have got heaps n heaps of pictures. It was just crazy moments with me girls! On my way back home after class in the car with mum, I showed me mum the pictures we took and there was this one particular picture of me alone acting really silly, I was actually pretending to lift the fire extinguisher with my butt sticking out and out of a sudden my mum said "Hmm...you're too thin, too flat. If you're working with SIA you won't look nice in the kebaya especially the sarong as you've got no bum" I was like....*speechless* just because I did a presentation on SIA today and I've been trying out for cabin crew with SIA previously and I think it kinda reminded her about it all and had to comment of such. Haha! Hilarious! You're so funny mum!
