Dancerzx fer lyyfe

Our weekly "dinner" of Each-A-Cup BBT and tako balls.

At 5.36am I'm hungry as hell now.

The uncle of Each-A-Cup kinda recognises us now! Haha because we always get BBT whenever he's about to do closing.

Yongjun (?) and Guohui.

The unexpected hidden KPop-miss A-SNSD fan and the not-a-KPop-person Guohui!

Jolyn and Daryl

I realise whenever I post photos of the dancers, I always end with a photo of Jolyn smiling like that!

I can't believe it. We've been together for half a year now and it's been AMAZING.

Best decision I ever made. Like what Twinnie assured me, the friends I've come to make from O School are nice and friendly. As a class we all bonded. Who would've known the people I hang out with now are the people I once felt (a bit) intimidated by in Hip Hop 1? (Heehee Inez, Ashley, Jolynnnnn doubt you guys will read this but whutev!)

And they're also some of the sweetest people I know.

I have to admit I miss Grace and Anika sooooo much! They're the first people I met in the extremely crowded HH1 class. Was so awkward entering the studio. I didn't know anyone and it just so happened I ended up introducing myself to a girl who came alone just like me and tada! They ended up being my HH1 kakis.

From the weekly BBT-tako "dinners" (apostrophes because we end class at about 9.45 and sometimes stay back to fool around in the studio) and KPop discussions and just being plain silly during our practice sessions at *SCAPE before class.......

Even though I've only known them for 3-4months maximum (like I said, didn't mix with them in HH1), I feel like I've seriously known them for years!

During the "O" Level period when I totally didn't go out for like a month or so, Thursdays were especially precious to me because that was the only time I was up and about in somewhere that's NOT my house! They made me love Thursdays.

GAH I LUV YOU GUYS!

Next week's the last lesson of Xuehui's Hip Hop course!

I can't believe 6 months has passed. Just.. weird. I can't imagine entering the studio only to feel a totally different classroom atmosphere next month onwards.

The good news is that majority of us would be taking the same course after this! Prolly LA Hip Hop or Popping. And the other survivors of HH1 are most likely gonna take Popping! Natalie, Daryl, Guohui..

So hopefully we'll end up as a class again!

Thanks to Natalie's suggestion, we're all gonna catch a movie next Thursday as a class after HH3! Prolly the last time we'll all get to hang out as a class anyways, unless we really end up taking Popping which starts in December. Will post lots of photos definitely!

Planning something for Xuehui too, hope she likes whatever we're gonna do!

------------------------------

Anyone who has really tried to understand my love of dance would know that I've been dreaming of the day I'd join a crew that I could hang out with, dance with and just be myself around since... ever.

I guess I've found them ;)

We may not be good, our moves not clean, not tight, but at least we're enjoying the experience as it comes!

Thanks for taking up my Thursdays, guys. You have no idea how much I looked forward to Thursdays cuz of y'all! Big hugx!

Rain, rain, go away

Attended my cousin's wedding a few days back!

Was amazing seeing my cousins (and my Hongkong cousins) from my mom's side I'll admit. It's been so long! And of course I had to put my made-of-fail Chinese to the test cuz my HK relatives could only speak Canto or Chinese! Language barrier much.

In the car with the act-cool brother of mine.

Charmaine jiejie the pretty bride!

Relatives and friends getting up on stage to get ready for the toast.

Longest (and loudest) toast to the bride and groom I've ever heard. It went on....

and on...

and on......

and on.

Yeah I know I kept taking photos of the flower ornament (my family sat at the table with the bride and groom) but it was pretty and there wasn't anything else to take photos of!

Pretty momszie!

Yummy chicken + crackers we had.

Was so full from all the food that when it came to desert everyone couldn't eat it! So much for "saving stomach space for desert".

Dad and brother digging in.

Yup so that's that!

I'm so relieved that the EMath paper's finally over. To be honest I thought the paper was quite hard and NOTHING like what we did during the previous years. At least I completed both papers (of course I left some parts blank).

If I fail again I wouldn't be able to stomach that fact. Of course I'm hoping I pass at least so that I can get to poly but who would like JUST a pass?

I swear, the Singapore education system is such a pain in the ass. Why, Math? WHY???!

O's Day 1

Paper's starting in (less than) 3 hours!

Wish me luck luck loads of luck cuz I just had tuition and now I'm dead tired.

How I wish there was a paper at night so that I could sleep/study the whole day (I'm a night owl in terms of studying so I have the habit of studying till 2-3am).

Math is tomorrow so WISH ME EVEN MORE LUCK.

Time to go catch a 2hr nap. Buh-bye my eyes are a'closing.

And yes, stupid faces are all the rage.

Miss A

I'm slowly converting back into a crazy KPop fan thanks to my dance friends!

Anyway, Miss A's "Breathe" is currently stuck in my head. Thanks to Inez, I'm turning into their next biggest fan cuz I found out the Min whose dancing inspired me to dance more (my biggest inspirations for dance are BoA, Min and Hyoyeon), the Min I love very much...

....THE MIN WHO GOT DEBUTED IN USA BY JYP ONLY TO DISAPPEAR-

-Actually debuted in Miss A!

And I feel really dumb cuz every week after dance I'll stay back at 313@Somerset with my dance friends from HH3 to chat and our main topic's KPop. Last week we talked mainly about Miss A and I complained about how I hate JYP cuz of what he did to Lee Min Young.

Then I asked, "Oh I know this girl who looks exactly like the Miss A girl. The one with short black hair? What's her name?"

"You mean Min ah?"

"Min?? Oh okay... same name as Min Young what the hell."

NOW I FEEL SO STUPID. I thought this Min from Miss A had the same name as Lee Min Young.

Then I heard "Breathe", watched their LIVE performance (this week Min lost a shoe hahaha what a cutiepie!), went to Min's channel on YouTube and when I saw her Channel Comments, which consisted mainly of "MISS A ROCKS!", "Min you're the best dancer of Miss A you'll bring them further" and "Girl I love you on the MV!", my jaw literally dropped.

I CAN'T BELIEVE THE MIN FROM MISS A IS ACTUALLY MIN YOUNG! No wonder when Inez showed me their MVs I kept staring at Min's face wondering why she looked like Min Young. (Also partially cuz I know a girl who looks exactly like her.)

Now I think it's better that she debuted with Miss A. Min debuting as a solo act wouldn't have got her far so yerrrrp! Definitely excited for her and I can't wait for them to come up with more singles.

Khunnie was talking about them on too. Hahah.

p.s. Ashley said that I looked like Suzy when I had my bangs :o

Would you be my American Boy?

Amazingggg cover of one of my favourite English songs, Estelle's "American Boy".

Holy crap I wish I had a voice like that. If someone in Singapore Idol sang like that she's pwn all the other contestants and become the first female Singapore Idol winner.

Okay, just came online to rip a song off this Youtube video for dance. Can't find it anywhere but the quality's pretty good so heck. Shall continue doing this EMath paper by Whitley Sec. I've been doing so many papers recently it's sickening. Thank goodness Math is only 12 days away.

8th November marks freeeeedom

p.s. Britain's Next Top Model S2 is made of fail. The photographs are so ugly compared to ANTM's!

I Want..

It's been so long since I last checked my Blogger account that they made me log in again (which I've not done for months because I'm on my Blogger account every other day).

So anyways, I've not really been online the past few days -- except for Twitter. Thank God for Wireless LAN on cellphones -- and the moment I lay my hands on my laptop I go to Anarchy Street's webpage to check whether their OFF cardigan's sold out.

IT'S SO PRETTY NO??

I've been dying to get this and I don't care about the fact that it costs USD68, excluding shipping fees! It's worth my money! I've been wanting to get it since a month+ ago and I'm still dreaming about the day I lay my hands on this baby.....

I just dropped my momma a hint by saying, "Mommy for my birthday next year you can consider getting me this-" and showing it to her.

Okay fine it wasn't 'dropping a hint'. More like 'making it very direct'.

Thing is, only size L is left. Yes I like wearing baggy stuff but I doubt a size L would fit me very snugly for a cardigan thank you very much.

Searching ebay for it now.

I AM IN LOVE WITH THIS THING.

Bad Girl Good Girl

I think I look like a kid in the last photo, and I can't get over that fact. Hahaha but like I said, being 17 this year, I am associated with being MATURED. *tries desperately to look at the last photo with a different perspective*

Oh, I'm quite happy because I lost 2kg over the past week or so. Banzai to healthy eating! I lost my craving for sweets and snacks and it feels good. The only thing left to change is my sleeping habits - I have to start sleeping at around 12.30am max.

Ah. Blame the Channel U show that runs every night at 11.30pm.

Whoever told you eating healthier would benefit you ain't lying. But I also read that losing 2-4 pounds per week is the most ideal and that's the fastest the body go. Losing any more weight than that a week would mean the body's losing water weight, which I know I can gain back very easily because I'm terribly water-logged thanks to my sweet tooth and I bloat from eating anything unhealthy.

Digressing a bit, I'm blogging with Miss A's 'Bad Girl Good Girl' on replay on my iTunes. Inez got me hooked last week. I remember how around 3 people from HH2 thought I was Korean. Ashley was one of them and she said I looked very much like Suzy from Miss A.

Aaaaand.. I totally disagree.

Anywho, Daddykinz just left for Genting earlier today and will only be back on Thursday. I would very much like to be there too, or anywhere but HERE (meaning Singapore).

Gerald and I just had this talk with my parents over dinner about travelling to New York. It was like we were having a mini debate on why we should go to NY before we hit 50.

My brother even sided me. Amazingly, we've gotten very close and I find that I treat him way better than I did before. Now when he does his usual nonsense, it doesn't annoy me, it just entertains me.

I'm guessing that's a good thing.

And oh, my cousin's wedding is coming up -- just one day before my first written paper! My mom told him Gerald and I would be going, and he reserved seats at the VIP table for us so I'm thinking it's pretty mean to back out. I like going to weddings though. Oh well, I'm taking one day off to make a trip down to Sephora to get makeup because my concealer's finishing, funny cuz I don't wear makeup when I go out!

I realise I tend to blog a lot more often now that my exams are approaching. Hm.......

Yerrrrrprprprprprprp

Meh. Until now I'm still deciding whether to change my blogskin so that I don't have to use Photobucket to host my photos.

(Speaking of which, I'll post up photos the next post okay? I feel so deprived because my internet time now is very precious. Sigh I lead such a terribly mundane life)

Anyway hi it's 5th OCTOBER, which means my first paper is around 20 days away, and I'm feeling more vexed with each passing day. As much as I fear the fact that there's still a possibility I may fail, I'm kinda looking forward to getting this over and done with.

I've been spending almost every week with Cel and Rae, and I miss them so much now. They spend every Friday-Saturday at my place having a study-sleepover - which involves a lot of water, snacks, drinks and chocolate. Rae happily gives up after 2 in the morning to the comfort of my bed.

Ah. We're gonna be spending a lot of time shopping after their promos/my O's, I swear.

Monica Parales is 'osm'. (Hahaha learnt this abbreviation from my friend from Switzerland. Who says Facebook isn't good huh?)

And I'm very much looking forward to this week's class. I love all the people at HH3 and now that the Mean Girls are gone, class is so much more fun. Then again, half of the HH2 are gone now too, boo..... Especially Elsie and John's clique. They apparently abandoned GH and Darrell to go for lyrical. Wait or was it street jazz? OH I KNOW, IT WAS LYRICAL JAZZ EUHSDIFH.

After HH3 I think the whole of HH3's intending to go for popping then locking. Either that or locking THEN popping, which is gonna be so fun - can you imagine? We've been classmates for more than half a year now! So if we take 1 more course we're gonna be classmates for a grand total of at least 10 months.

Okay I just watched some O School Recital audition footage and MANNNNN, I'm excited to try out for next year's recital if there is one.
