class community singing performance + busy week

Elmo guys!:)

Welcome to another blog of me talking crap.Just kidding.

So today,I'll be blogging about my week.

This week was prolly one of the nicest week ever.On Thursday,there was a community singing competition going on for class 107-111.As this competition will determine which class will get to perform for the national day parade in our school, we all worked really hard for it.You prolly will think why the hell do they care about all this lame stuffs but we should do our best in everything right?

Initially,I thought that our class' performance will be really shitty but it turns out that I am wrong.We didn't even practice until the last few days before the performance.My co-form teacher actually gave an excellent idea.She suggested that we have three different groups.Singing,Dancing and Acting.

I am in the dance section and since 90% of us were from the dance society,it wasn't hard coming up with something that is different from the other classes.We ended up being quite creative.

The song that we will be singing/acting/dancing to is 'Di Tanjong Katong".I felt that our class is unique because we were the only class who chose that song,whilst other classes chose national day song.I felt that ours was better because we got to bring back the kampong days and reminisce.

I must say,everyone really took this seriously,for the first time.On the actual day of performance,I was really nervous because I was standing smack in the middle of the stage.If I screw up the steps,it will be quite obvious.But thank god I didn't. Phew!:]Dancers even got to put flowers on our heads.(suggested by Mdm Nisha)

Although the way I said it made it look so easy but it wasn't really as easy as you thought it was.It took quite abit of practice to get everything right.And in the end,WE GOT INTO THE TOP 3!Yes,I'm not kidding.For once,108 made it!I guess what made our class really deserving for this is our teamwork and class spirit.We settled our differences really easily and we don't hold grudges on others.We took this seriously and worked hard with the spirit.Although there were some conflicts along the way,we managed to solve them out.I hope that we can keep up with this performance and get the first during national day.It would mean alot to me.

I really love this performance so much because of the way I see how we work as a whole class.It's one of my favourite performances.You know what,I'm starting to really like this class alot.As compared to other classes,we are actually quite united.I heard from my friends that in their classes and some other classes,there are so many problems and fake friends.At least in my class,everything is real.Although some times I don't really agree with what some people do,I end up forgiving them in the end.

Okay.Enough about my class.

Swimming started this week on Wednesday.It was really fun for me as we get to be out of the school for lessons for once.It was really refreshing,with classes making me tired all day long.I'm in the beginners' class.Don't judge.We went to the Clementi Swimming Complex.

After that,me and my friends went to for the DC superheroes outing.I don't know why I volunteered for it.Perhaps I guess it would be fun?Initially,the six of us in my clique agreed that we would all go together but since they all had cca in the end and couldn't turn up,me and Clara and Siu Wen and Gabriena went instead.We went to the Singapore Philatelic Museum.It was fun I guess,looking at superheroes.But I still prefer spiderman to all the other superheroes.Besides,I rarely go to such places so I guess this would be a learning experience.We didn't got on the bus so we ended up taking a cab there.LOL I know what you're thinking.Don't deny.You'll be like"Those idiots."











                                                        group selfie smile for the camera :)
                           I only have one question to ask:Why do I always look so unglam in group selfies?:<
                                                                          my baobei.

                                                             I think Clara looks really chio
                                                          This is OUR lunch.No kidding.
                                                               a failed paranomic shot
                                                             it's been long since I took a selfie
                                           This is by far,hands down,my all-time favourite pics.
                                                                i lub sogurt so much




                       I really like this vintage filter (golden) for camera 360.It gives really nice effects.






Also,I went to Marina Bays Sands this Saturday but there wasn't much to see,neither much to say,just some pictures for you guys.And,as usual,stressed and busy with homeworks and tests.It's really killing me you know.And there's this renovation going on in my block and soon it would be my house.My mum's getting really stressed out and she's busy cleaning up the house and shifting everything.The house's really hot,messy and dirty right now and it's unbearable.Hope this would end soon):

And these few days,I'm really...I don't how to put this but many things are really affecting my mood.The dreams I have these days are those that I don't want to have.If  I was in the past,maybe I would still be yearning for this dream to come but now,since I've already made my decision,I really don't want to dream about this anymore.It really affects me alot.I wish this would all go away.I'm happy with what I have now.I really don't want to change anything or go back anymore.

See you guys in my next blog post. Hope you have a great week ahead!:P

XOXO,

Ways I keep myself healthy

I didn’t know what to blog about so I figured out that I should share about ways I keep myself healthy.


First off, I have badminton training every Friday. I think it’s really fun although sometimes it gets really tiring. Every time I had to do lunges, it hurts so so much. This Friday when I did my lunges, I could barely stand up. But it a great sports that really works you out. I have great friends there and I really love their company. Moreover, I think that I like them even more than my friends in school. Although many of them are much much younger than me, like in primary school, but they’re really good friends. I always look forward to badminton practices with them.:)I never used to give a second thought about badminton but ever since I started going for practices, I really enjoyed it and it is my ultimate favourite sport right now.


And then, on Saturdays, I go swimming. This isn’t really what I do every single Saturday but I thought maybe I should start doing it from now onwards. I just started this week and I hope I can continue with this the following weeks. My school is sending us for swimming classes so I guess it never hurts to do a little self-preparation. I basically force myself to swim at least a few laps before I can go home.


Also, I go running every week at the park near my house. I run about a few kilometres each time and it really kills. But it really helps me a lot. For example, whenever the teacher asks us to run for PE lessons, I could run faster than most of my friends mostly because I practice running. That totally helped me like A LOT. The day is not fixed, depending on my mood but I  would not procrastinate to not do it. I always do it eventually. I either do it on a Sunday or Monday. I’ve been running every single week before the June holidays. It has been a few months I guess. But because I was quite busy during the holidays and I wanted to rest so I didn’t continue with the routine. But since school has reopened, so it’s time to work my ass off now.


Lastly, wherever possible, I will walk home instead of taking the public transport. It may be tiring but it benefits me in the long run. I always dread walking home but it is actually the best form of keeping healthy.
I am also figuring out more ways I can fully make use of my time and more activities I can do to keep myself healthy but it also depends of the amount of time I have, with all that homework and stuffs.
So I hope this has been beneficial or informative for you. Till next time. :)

XOXO,

Sher

School reopens

So the holidays are gone.Okay.I'm so sorry if you don't see the pictures in my previous posts anymore because I accidentally deleted them but I promise I'll make up for it by taking more pictures in the future.

So now that school starts and it's already the first week of school,I wonder how you guys are coping at school.I'm doing fine.Just that I'm too busy studying.Some changes going on and all.

Recently,I made a decision which I can't tell but I'm apprehensive of the choice that I've made.It's kinda a big decision and I never really told anyone about it.But what I wanna say is that if you had to make a choice,make that choice wisely because bear in mind that once you step of that path,there's no going back anymore.Before making that choice,consider if it will hurt the people around you or consider if making that choice will make your life happier.If it does,then just go ahead and do it.I know that many of us will be afraid and just like me,apprehensive of taking the first move but since it's better than if you stick to the old way whereby you are not happy at all.I don't know where my choice will take me but all I know is that I will be happier this way.Much happier.I hope that this decision of mine will work out.

I guess that's all so till next time bye:)

Vacation(Genting Highlands)

So Hi Guys. I know that it has been a really long time since I blogged. Pardon me because after I came back from my vacation, school’s  gonna start and I gotta finish up my leftover bits of homework and get ready and stuffs and I just can’t find the time to switch on this electronic device. I Know that this is probably kinda late but still, I’m doing it. So yeah…enjoy:)

                                                             |GENTING HIGHLANDS|

Okay. So here I was, after I  came from Malacca. It was kinda cold up here. We checked in to the hotel and I stay in there for quite some time while my parents went out. I was supposed to read this book ‘Red Sky in the Morning’ but I fell asleep. I think I slept for a few hours then haha. Then I ate dinner with my parents and we just walked around. It was getting kinda boring to me because of the limited facilities and lesser stuffs to see and all. And besides, I’ve been seeing all these stuffs ever since I was a young child. How can I not get bored of them? So that’s my first day for ya.







On the second day,we went to KL.We had breakfast in Genting before going to the skyway to take a cable car down the hill and transfer to another bus that will bring us to KL.Honestly,the number of times I have ever sit in a cable car can be counted with my fingers.Although I came to Genting frequently,I don’t sit of the cable car frequently because the bus normally drives up there but now,since renovation works are being carried out,many of the bus don’t go to KL anymore and as they can’t come up due to the lack of space.But it was fun riding on the cable car.I have a fear of heights as well as abit of claustrophobia.So you wouldn’t expect me to dance around in the car neither scream nor shout._. But you get that adrenaline rush…you know that feeling.I actually took a video of the whole thing but it was too long and it prolly takes me a whole week before I can upload it so I’m so sorry.

So when we reached KL,the first place we went to was Chinatown.I got a little sick on the way because the weather was suuuper hot and moreover,I came down from Genting. The temperature difference. t I was super obssessed with when I was younger and bought many things from there but I forgot the name of the shop so I never went there anymore.But that very day,I saw it again so I decided to go in and take a look.It made me realise how much I’ve changed and grown as a person.That shop was like a craft shop.On the first level,they sold wallets and pencil cases and soft toys and stuffs but the wallets are those girly types which I used to like a lot and bought them and they’re still living in my bedroom.And then upstairs they have all the gift stuffs,notebook,gift boxes,stationeries and many more.I used to go cray cray over them but now,I’m a 3rdteen-year-old-to-be.They kinda looks suckish to me now,no offence.And basically the whole my parents are trying to find places for me to rest because I then discovered I had a fever and it was pretty bad because my legs were aching too and I just didn’t had the energy to walk on anymore.Thereafter,we went to this shopping mall.The thing about shopping malls,they’re all the same.They sell the same things.I mean like I feel like asking my parents’Don’t you guys get bored coming to one every time?’But they’ll just say that different places sells different things.Which I donut agree on.I mean like come on,are there more intresting stuffs they could do in a shopping mall.We ate lunch(I didn’t really ate because I wasn’t feeling very well.)there and I got myself a cup of bubble tea.I thought that it was the least my fever could take.So the whole time,we just wasted our time looking at stuffs that we don’t even plan to buy and unintresting.We took the bus back to Genting Highlands and I guess my fever was gone then.It was an hour plus ride but I couldn’t sleep so I looked at the beautiful sceneries and captured them with my cam-e-ra.You know one of my fav things to do when I’m on the bus?It’s to plug that ear piece into your ear hole and start playing one of your favourite songs and blast that volume yo.Well that only applies to me so don’t try it if your not really a fan of music.I don’t want you to go deaf really.And I go crayy crayy singing these songs.I never really can get enough of music can I?I’ve loved music ever since I was in primary one.I still remembered the first pop song a.k.a. the song that got me started on this music obsessed track.It was introduced by two of my best friends actually and it’s called ‘Teardrops on my guitar’ by Taylor Swift.It simply rocks till now.So after we reached Genting,we ate dinner at the coffee shop there and again didn’t eat much because I didn’t had the appetite to.And we retired for the night.

                                                            the lights are just too pweety
                                                              you see why i'm scared of heights

                                                                 the number tho
                        Ladies and gentlemen,take a moment of silence to admire the be-u-ti-pool scenery









                                                                 shiok aka craving satisfied


















                         I know the pics are quite blurry.Sorry for that because I was on a moving bus.

                 
                               



The next morning,we ate breakfast at coffee terrace which basically is a buffet.I still can’t eat much but I was forced to eat somethings so I got those light food and drinks like soya bean milk and stuffs like that.Ugh.I’m craving for breakfast now.Okay.In case you don’t know,it’s 7:43 am right now and I woke up too early today because I was woken up by my friggin alarm clock which I forgot to switch off.I could actually sleep to 12 today because it’s youth day and it’s a holiday.YAY!:))But here I am,trying to finish up my blog for my vacation because I’m gonna blog about something else.So anyway,after breakfast,we lazed around doing nothing.Me and my mum actually wanted to catch a movie but the movies were all not very intresting so we decided not to.We went back to the hotel for a nap before coming out again for dinner.I can’t believe we ate at the same place again because my dad’s kinda a fussy eater and it’s hard to find the right kind of food for him so the coffee shop is great because there are a variety of food there.And did I mention about the dessert I ate for lunch?It’s so friggin nice then ugh I just want it to appear right in front of me right now.First of all,it’s strawberry flavoured(my fav^^)and it has pearls in it (my favs too^^)and it also has starwberries and  all the different types of ingredients they will add in an ice kacang.It was simply delicious and satisfying.And yeah,that’s bascially everything.We went home the next day and I couldn’t be any more glad than to be home but school was starting in a week so I was kinda depressed.I didn’t really wanna go back to school.:(


                                   

                                                                         nice right?
                                     
                                   
                                     



                                                   I miss how it used to look like in the past.




                                               


       It's amusing to see how a piece of land can bring so much joy in life.It actually depends on how you are going to use that piece of land.Like they said"The ball is in your court."So make decisions wisely in life and make sure that the decision you make brings you joy.Make the best of what's left.

                                                               selfie craze time!!!







             

Overall,I think Genting Highlands is a place you would like to go for a quick getaway and it’s cooling up there so if you think you’re becoming a roasted chicken in your country or like me in Singapore then it’s best if you pack your bags right now and teleport there.I’m joking about the teleport part but yeah you get what I’m trying to convey.And I prolly wouldn’t want to visit it again any time soon.Maybe when the renovations are done and when I’m sec three in 2016.:(The thing that makes Genting Highlands so attractive is basically the amusement park every time you say that name,people will associate it with amusement park,fun,happy,laughter and so on.But what is it without the amusement park?It’s just a piece of land.I really amazed when I saw that piece of land which I once looked forward to every time I went there.I didn’t know that a piece of land can bring so much fun and happiness with just some facilities.It’s amazing isn’t it?That the thing about human nature.It’s really a wonderful thing.So that’s it!Till next time peposss.
