........
I think this year is a good year :) ...somehow things are going really well...
First off... on the 25th of April i entered my last ever cooking competition in SMJK Kwang Hua...My partner is still Huai Ping (we entered in form3 and form4 as well...) and we decided to make things simpler this time...no fancy shmancy stuff and just go and have fun... so we decided on pasta and she wanted to make cookies but i thought brownies was easier so brownies it was... and this time we only practised once... oh...and she made a lime juice thingy as an extra... good for washing things down :) ... we didn't expect to win or anything coz we were so calm... while the form 4's were all screaming and hustling each other...hehe... so in the end we got 1st place :D ... partly coz we don't use those prego sauces... i used tomato paste and canned tomatoes and real tomatoes and some ketchup..herbs..pepper...meat... and that's our sauce from scratch... so maybe that earned us some points..
Then..there's this annual thing held by the Drama, Music and Choir club... we go compete in school first then i think we gotta go compete with other schools...So my piano teacher knew about this from her old students and asked me to go... to get over my stage fright.. so..fine... since its my last year..why not.. then Yimin asked if we wanted to do a duet... then i thought again...why not..? so i entered for solo and duet category... my solo song was my exam piece and for the duet yimin wanted to do military march which is nice..but kinda hard to learn in such a short period of time.. so i persuaded her to do the one page song Blue Parrot Rag.. real cute and jazzy...so we thought why not just go and have fun? its a fun song so we added some extra bits here and there for a more dramatic performance..muahahaha... i think we practised 3 times together and all went well...The performance was on 3rd of May (saturday) and yimin and i got matching outfits for this event... Solo performances came first followed by duets and then dancing was the last event...singing was in the morning... for my solo..haha.. i never got over my stage fright... my hands ran on their own while they were shivering... mistakes here and there...not good... so i had time to relax after that but somehow for the duet i didn't feel scared... maybe coz there was someone with me... and i think we made no mistakes and it all went according to plan :) .... but we didn't hope for anything... so they would put up the results on monday..which is today... Reccess came and off we went to the bulletin board... and i searched for my name in the solo section but it wasn't there
..oh well i saw that coming... but i looked to the duet section and there it was
3. Ellen Chong (5S4)
Heng Yi Min (5S4)
we couldn't believe it.... then we started laughing like idiots -.-''' ..... but now we have to compete again... haih.... and wednesday will be m Bio exam... which i am very unprepared for...haih... been slacking :P .... so i guess its time to go study study study... :(
