Kyoshu (Nostalgia)

The past week had been a very busy one for me!

We had decided to help out as our friends were the organizers of the JCN event.

We had danced traditional dance for the past 2 yrs dy for JCN, and this time we gonna dance traditional dance again hahaha. Simply cuz thats the only performance we can join, cant join modelling right i dont think my height even qualify lol. And def not modern dance, drama? Nooo unfortunately i cant act!

We only started on our sem's first week, kept browsing YouTube vids for Japanese traditional dance, as we had to make the whole dance ourselves.

We used to learn from a teacher for the previous years in Cyber, but now shes not available IDK why and we're on our own.

Luckily Chin Xiang had lotsa experience in traditional dance and we all created the dance ourselves!

We had 4 hours of practice every single night for the whole week. 8pm to 12pm at acr.

And we decided on the geisha theme (it met with the event theme coincidently huhu!) cuz its so elegant and cool, should be easy to learn.

It was so fun to trial and error on the dance steps and tryin to interpret the weird japanese music.

And the best is to gossip and fool around with the bunch of girlssss!

Middle one is Grace who helped us get into our yukata!

Me in yukata ^_^ i dunno what the jap word 'Shi Te' means btw, haha have to ask the editor.

Me with YikXin. Her light purple yukata is so pretty!

Due to some 'misunderstanding', the models wore her yukata on Saturday and pity YikXin had to resort to other inferior yukatas. =(

Cuz we dancers chose the yukatas first and we dont know what happened, on that day the models wore the same yukata and the committees said models should have prettier yukatas so they gave YikXin other yukatas that are not that pretty, some even have holes in it.

The committees really shouldnt have let the models take the yukatas we chosen and caused this kinda problem. grr.

 Teehee. The yukata damn big size la haha.

This is our petite leader Chin Xiang~hehe Thanks to u we managed to create the dance!

The dance crew! Yes tallest in the middle so my position is no doubt at the corner. lol

The cute obi(ribbons) behind. The obis have to be tied really really tight to ur waist so that the overall shape looks nice ;) And this left us all have difficulties in breathing in yukata hehe.

Our initial dance position.

The story of our dance goes like this: We're all 7 sisters geishas who had passed away.*touch wood* This is a portrait of us. Then on that day, we'd come alive one by one and dance to entertain the crowd. And at last we went back to our portrait position again. ^_^

Practicing our dance in yukata.

We spent just 3 days to create the whole dance! Cuz geisha dance should be very elegant and very slow, so its not that hard to learn hehe.

Saturday 19th of March is the big day! We all gathered at main hall at about 1030, mana tau they all told us the PA system hasnt arrive yet and asked us to go have breakfast, bout 1230 only back.

I ate my breakfast dy but still took some rice. And was vry vry grateful that i took some lunch, cuz we'll be starving for the next 12 hours!

So we came back bout 1230, the PA system still hasnt arrived yet and they asked us to go home bath =.= so we lepak at main hall and played few rounds of poker cards haha.

At last, around 1smth, the PA system has arrived and we managed to practice and mark the stage.

The we proceeded for makeup!!! (We dont have high hopes on the makeups cuz sure vry ugly one, the past 2 yrs dy proven.)

And we were right. The end result looked like this:

LOL damn scary right! Doughnut shape bun on top and little red lips like the Red Queen in Alice in Wonderland! My face can blend into the wall behind dy. Same colour =.=

Actually the makeup artists didnt know that we wanna have geisha style makeup one.

We told the committees in charge 2 weeks before, that our makeup and hair style will be in geisha look, but then on that day, the stylists thought we only need slightly fair makeups.

So they didnt bring any white body paint for the face. They used the white eye shadow powder and gradually pat on our faces to get this effect.

This is Sufen. The stylist is drawing the Red Queen's lips lol.

We were shocked at first to see our makeup. But then when we get used to it, we begin to fool around lol.

First time Peace without smiling at the camera hahaha!

Super white us with Luo Wei, vice president of JLS :)

With Grace. This is not scary cuz we all smiled haha.

And now the scary ones :

Ken the drama king.

Drummer of the band preformance joined the fun haha.

Have u seen geisha playin poker cards before? =P

Hi im geisha kristy and my hobby is playin poker cards. LOL

^_^

*My hand!* Drama queens! hehehe

Chin Xiang's bf, Sundenn came visit us. haha

JS, Sufen's bf came too!

Cj and HanKai as model for traditional fashion show! So was Winson!

Another traditional model, Kay Lim.

Chloe looks like those evil traditional geisha hehehe!

Me and sis! Actually the eye makeup is quite pretty. Thanks to my lovely makeup artist ^_^

Rawkstar geisha yo! Sufen and the band.

The band. Evon Song, the sweet girl in the middle has a powerful voice! Shes good!

Took pic with Suki, the super tall gorgeous model!

See the height difference. Shes 175cm without heels, 180cm+ with this heels can u bliv it?!

Shes currently a model for Amber Chia academy if im not mistaken.

Im like a 10yr old kid beside her lol.

Super friendly and she really can walk gracefully in heels!!

Behold~ Our performance!

^______^

This is the drama, Cinderella! Altho it has nothing to do with Japanese culture haha

But its seriously very funny and well written! Awesome actors too!

The prince is Justin Bieber and the wizard is Harry Potter LOLLOL so hilarious.

Pity we didnt get to see the real show!

Saxophone performance!

This guy here is stil studying his Upper 6. Not a bad performance altho Chloe, who had 5 yrs of experience in Saxophone kept complaining where hes out of tune haha.

Clubbing on stage. Nola its actually modern dance.

But the lighting was so bad it shone directly on the audiences faces instead of ON the dancers!

And this was what we saw below stage. Shadowssss haha.

Modern Fashion show! *screams*

Traditional fashion show. Love the music.

Han kai. HAHAHA his face was so white as if hes one of us dancers =P

Kay and Yiting.

Winson and his partner, Kai Hong.

Funny how he posed and extracted the sword hehe. Thats a real sword btw!

The traditional models

The super cool modern models.

Round of applause! ^_^

Thats all for 2011's JCN! Well done to all the committees! Will really miss the dancers :)

Appreciate on what you have

Mornin'. Its 948am now. Woke up so early at 8am and were all prepared cuz uncle was admitted to hospital due to heart problems and we gonna go visit him.
Then daddy told me and sis that we cant follow them to kl. -___-''

Cuz they have to fetch aunt along and theres not enough seats for us..

Now what...?Wearing my cons and wif a full tummy of breakfast.. 

So i decided to blog! hehe. Gonna head back to my cozy bed aftwards~!

Yea so ytd our results were finally out.Managements' released first and caused a stir in our class.

And bout 1pm+,its finally FET's turn! Was havin lunch(chicken rice ball)when sis told me my results.

And my heart sunk immediately. Gosh how come my gpa dropped so low????

T____T got C+ for my Thermo...omg. and u can estimate my gpa with that.

Sigh...............

But aih.. i know results is not everything. No point mourning over past things right? What's done is done. Just try to do better this sem and raise my cgpa up..

Took a nap ytd around 4 and when i woke up, was shocked to see my fb news feed was flooded with news of the massive 8.9 earthquake that hit Japan and also Tsunami. O___O

Raw footages and videos on how the waves swept across Japan's main city and carried cars, boats and even houses several miles like they're toys..

And those Tsunami alarms issued to several countries.. gosh this cant b happening!

Cant bliv few hours ago was like super sad over my results and now,see what happened in Japan!

My results seemed so insignificant compare to that! The Japanese are fighting just to be alive!

Now im satisfied enough that i still have university to go to, my friends are all safe and study in class together, my family members are all safe, i still have a stable warm house waitin for me..and Msia is such a peaceful country and no natural disaster(only have political disasters hahaha) i should be really grateful. ^_^

Lets pray for Japan and also the affected countries. 

Hope will help them survive thru this monstrous disaster!

And i really hope 2012 is not the end of the world..I still have so many things havent do yet! T_T

=3

Back to melaka

Hola! I am back here in melaka! and..
DAMMIT I FORGOT MY BOOK !!
Knew i left something bhind, as always T_T
Left my 'The Devil Wears Prada' novel behind.. ( a vry nice book btw)
Oh shit life here in mmu is super boring la and comp is soo boring!!
Now what else to do to kill time eh? *staring blankly at comp screen*

Btw, if the ERU is correct, then tmr is the day our results will be released!
Good luck to myself and fellow friends, hopefully everyone can pass all the subjects :D

KL trip

On Monday, Julian came to our house around noon and play poker cards.

Yeah he came all the way to our hse to play cards =P kiddin la later goin for movie one.

He brought along a deck of card with him and we played afew rounds in our hse b4 going out for lunch.

Decided to go for Yong Tau Fu and porridge at a shop around Mei Ling.

To me, thats the best Yong Tau Fu in sban! but not cheap also la rm0.80 per piece..

We chose to watch I am Number Four despite so many negative comments about it.

Cuz the trailer is interesting! There're 9 of them who came to earth from another planet to escape from some gross creatures who look like human but with vry gross gills beside their nose. eww.

And the 'numbered guys' each have unique powers! Interesting ain't it?? hehe

So, those creatures wanted to kill them (dunno why) and they must kill them according to their number.

The first 3 has been killed ( first one got killed in Msia HAHA ) and its Number Four's turn.

Yes and he is number four~ The movie was so so only, quite boring in the middle, all about that boy above wanna lead a healthy carefree teenage life, but he couldnt cuz he posses special powers and hes on the run.

The last part is the climax, where the creatures finally found the number4 boy and wanna kill him. 

Quite thrilling there and i loveee the puppy! It can transform into a beast one cuz it too is from the same planet and it's job is to protect the number 4 boy. kawaii!

The ending is vry good, only the number 4's guardian perished in the fighting, thats all ^_^ plus the number 6 girl is vry hot and powerful! hehe

Guess that show is to be continued as they all went to search the other alive numbered guys lol.

And on tuesday, me and my sis went KL Pavilion for shoppingggg~ 

(actually window shopping is more accurate)

 Me in Forever 21's dressing room. I love their dressing room cuz its vry spacious and has a super duper huge mirror in the middle! It has mini chandelier(of coz fake one lo) on top of every dressing rooms and its just so cozy inside =D
Forever 21's accessories are quite cheap, considering its quite a branded name!
But dont see those dresses and new arrived items la cuz they're vry exp and all are above rm70 one.

Lunch time! Went around to hunt for cheap food but to no avail T_T
We're in Pavilion man not any other shopping malls lol sigh
So we chose this Carlo's Mexican Canteena cuz the poster outside saying smth bout lunch promo at rm15++ attracted us!
Rm15 for a pasta of choice plus one drink! But not refillable lor yikes

 Sis

 Me. Wheee excited for food!

 Here comes our food! Pasta with cream and mushroom.

This pasta is super super super(and i mean it!) delicious!!!

Best pasta iv ever tasted yet hehe.

 We ordered another side dish - Mexican Potato Skin with stuffings!

Inside are all cheese and beef and chicken!

Love it too!!

 Just to let u see how big is the plate!
We both ate happily thinking that the meal cost us 15bucks oni ma, but turned out add this and that, rm18 each. omg T_T

Then later on, around 5smth we went for tea time =D

(Now u know where we spent most of our money, and why i wanna keep fit *runs away with tears* )

Neways, found this cute crepe cake stall.

Its "Harajuku Japanese Crepes"

Didnt get to try it cuz we think crepes vry hard to share lol.

 Thought Dome's cake is vry yummy as last year we bought Dome's chocolate cake for Lidren at Queensbay mall in Penang.

But this cheese cake let us down..
It has those crunchy thingy in the cake which i dont really like. sigh

And its vry expensive too! rm13 per SLICE. The most expensive cake iv ever eaten!

I miss Melaka's japanese layer cake. Cheaper and def worth it!
Nonetheless, the service at Dome's are two tumbsup!!

 Took this in S & J gift shop.

The cute teddy looks evil here hahaha

Ah Lua knew we're in Pavilion so he wanted to come over to have dinner together.

His university (UTAR) is just 20mins away.He'll be drivin over when his test ends at 630.

But we dy finished our window shopping very long,so we waited for him and went to Forever 21 again, simply to try on the clothings for fun and kill time hahaha.

 Love this dark pink sweater! Cute!

 Haha spot the PINK me!

Im in cute style and sis's in hiphop stlye XD

 ^_^ 

Muacks~

Some crazy chicks left these lipstick marks on the dressing room door!

Eww guess they dont know how dirty the doors are.

After starting to get abit bored at Forever 21,we went to hunt for any ideal place for dinner.

Lua is stuck in the middle of KL traffic jam as 630pm is aft work time and the roads are all super congested.

 Went into Wong Kok cuz others are sooo expensive. 

Lepak abit and flipped thru their menus. The food there is quite boring.

We decided to get off, and thinking how to explain to the waiter : 

"Erm we have to go find a fren,later will come back again"

But turns out nobody cares when we walk out without ordering anything. T_T we got so insignificant to u all meh...haha.

Bout 740pm, Lua reached Pavilion at last! He said his car inched abit abit all the way til he reach Pavilion one. Pity his legs keep adjusting the clutch lolz. but we both also waited til vry pity haha.

We went to Food Republic and at last chosen Ichiban Boshi for jap cuisine!!

 Inari with tuna sushi... Its super duper yummy!

Makes u think that Sushi King is kinda overprice and 偷工减料.

 A new flavour. Mushroom sushi with teriyakki sauce and many spices.

Very yummy too! I super love mushrooms!

 This is our share set.Tori katsu don and the cold soba noodles.

 Tori katsu don! Very delicious!

 The soba noodles.

Should we dip the noodles into the soup or straight pour the soup on top of it? @@

Lua's dinner was big fat slice of Unagi + rice.At first he dunno unagi's skin is edible one hahaha.

After our dinner, Lua wanted to go buy some Sticky sweets~

 Sticky sweets in process!

Its lime flavour and....abit too sour T_T

Now i know whats Sticky. Long time ago my fren kystal bought some Sticky sweets from Aussie and let us try. Its not available in Msia but now it is :)

Dont really like the sweets actually,but many of my frens are its fans lol.

Thats ah Lua's not hers! =P

By the time we took lrt to go back to Hang Tuah, its already 915pm! Yikes so late dy.

And when we finally reached sban, its alrdy 1015 and as predicted screwed by mom and dad lol.

So sorry we didnt realize the time it was that late already..

Thats all for our kl trip ^_^

Counting down 4 days to the end of our holidays.We'll be going back melaka this sun. sigh.
