Update No. 29 - HOLIDAYS !

Hey guys,

IT'S FINALLY THE HOLIDAYS :D. I feel so relieved but disappointed at the same time since I know that the holidays are going to pass really quickly. But it means more pictures/photos for you guys. (:

I'll just like to say hi to Grace and Jane which will hopefully look at this post sometime today or in the holidays (:

Today at lunch I had a beef burger and I took some photos before I finished the whole thing. I bought it at my school canteen for $5 but it was massive and I was really full after. It looks like junk food but it was really nice to eat ;P Some junk food here and there doesn't matter. :P

Excuse the bite marks since I JUST remembered to take some pictures of it after I bit into it a couple of times. Sorry ):

In history today we watched a movie named 'Paradise Road' which is a great movie and a bit graphic. After all, it's rated M :P Review coming soon. (:




Until next time,
Michelle xx

Update No. 28 - ONE MORE DAY TO GO!

Hey guys,

So today was a nice day. I signed up for 40-Hour Famine which is an event where you have to give up something for 40 hours which would take place on the 19th of August till 12PM on the 21st of August. I'm just gathering sponsers right now (: I'll let you know the outcome. I'm giving up food again this year. (:

Uhmm..I bought two bars of chocolate from Fundraiser sellers. These ones are really cheap. I bought both at $2.50 each and they are massive. Not as big as the supermarket ones but they aren't that massive. Lol.

Picture:

At lunch today, my friend Alisa (she has no Blogger - so you guys can't stalk her. I'm just kidding but she really doesn't have blogger :P) had croissants from her French breakfast and she wrapped one for her sister. And I thought it looked cute so I took some pictures of that as well. She used a stapler to staple the top if you're wondering why it's holding up so well. :P




That's her stapler next to it. I just thought this picture had a better angle. :P

  Don't you think it's a spitting image of a pork bun? You know...the CHINESE ones? :P
So I forgot to mention that the girl that gave me the keyrings (Original post: http://ilikestarryskies.blogspot.com/2011/06/new-keyring.html), also gave me GUM (:

Picture of it:

I haven't tried it yet, so it's unopened. But my sister got one as well and she tried it and said it's really good and yummy tasting. Can't wait to try it out but I need to finish my 5 Gum first :P

I also forgot to mention that I have this really cute looking electric hot water bottle that my sister and I share to warm up our beds at night.

Picture:




Ain't it CUTE?!


But it's just a cover. The actual hot water bottle is inside:

And the hot water bottle cover feels really nice and soft and cuddly. (:

So many pictures in this post, I know.

All for the best,

Update No. 27 - Musicale Performance

Hey guys,

So last night I performed at my school's Musicale. I don't have much to say since the performance, in my opinion wasn't that good. Our ensemble screwed up a lot of it. Hopefully, the audience didn't know. Lol.

What we screwed up:

1. The runs by the flutes (including me :P) which no one knew how to play properly which was our fault. Whatever :P

2. The trumpet wasn't there. So the part where she normally does her solo was empty. But then the French Horns were the loudest at that part but they played it weird.

But we shouldn't concentrate on the bad things (: I'm assuming the rest of the night went well since I left after my performance since there wasn't any point in staying. My mum watched (:

Until next time,
Michelle xx

Kiss the Rain by Yiruma

Hey guys,

So one of the Youtube videos of Kiss the Rain which can be played below is a new favourite. (:

On one of the comments, it tells you to try this:

" 1. pause at 0:00
2. open new tab
3. go to Rainymood(dot)com
4. play this ^
5. love the sound "

And I tried it. BEST THING EVER. Just play the song when it's loading and it's really awesome. (:

Enjoy,
Michelle xx

Update No. 26 - Weirdest Dream EVER

Hey guys,

OMG YESTERDAY NIGHT (NOT LAST NIGHT) I HAD THE WEIRDEST DREAM EVER!! IN MY LIFE. I SWEAR. It was about the weirdest topic ever and it must be side effect of Alisa telling Julia (http://www.xxjuliaxx.blogspot.com/) what Ms McKay told them about childbirth.

Anyways, in my dream I was pregnant and there wasn't anyone there when 'it' was coming out. So I was screaming 'Mummy! Mummy!' but my mum wasn't there. So Julia and Alisa came along and took me to the 'hospital' by Julia holding my head and Alisa holding my legs.

So then they took me to the 'hospital' but in my dream it was a temple. And the temple had heaps of rooms but they were all empty. So they took me to a room with heaps of bunk beds with red bedsheets. I asked them: 'Why are the bed sheets red?' And Julia said: 'This is where people give birth' and Alisa added: 'And there's a lot of blood loss.'

And then I waited for a while and I remember having a lot of pain. And I was screaming: 'I DON'T KNOW HOW TO GIVE BIRTH! I DON'T KNOW HOW TO ):' But they just said: 'Just scream low pitched and everything will be fine.' So I was screaming like a man and when the 'father' arrived, the baby came out. Then I woke up.

The thing that Alisa told Julia and I was that if you scream low-pitched while giving birth, your diaphram will help you push the baby out, whereas if you scream high-pitched, you'll have a really painful birth.

Anyways, just thought it was interesting enough to tell you guys (:

Until next time,

Movie Review No. 1 - Romeo and Julet

Hey guys,



 So at school sometime, we finished watching 'Romeo and Juliet'. We watched the Baz Lurhmann's version which I prefer anyways. I like how it's really cliche and dramatized. I know some people don't like movies like that but I personally don't mind it.

The love theme/song from the movie is really good and is so sad. The song is 'I'm Kissing You' by Des'Ree. It's really good since it reminds me of the movie and the ending.
Listen to the song:

I found the ending really sad and found it hard not to cry to. I'm pretty sure all those Leonardo fans out there would totally dig this movie. *wink* I can't wink but whatever. :P

Rating: 5/5
Recommendation: YES. If you don't mind crying to tragedy love stories. Or if you love Leonardo Di'Caprico. Lol.

Don't watch it if you've just broken up with someone because you'll bawl out waterfalls. :P

Update No. 24 - Last week of School

Hey guys,

So this is the last week of school before the 2 week holidays start. My English assignment is due tomorrow and I need to work on it. Nothing much happened today. I skipped my Musicale rehearsal today since I didn't want to go. I sound so rebel but really, there wasn't any reason to go.

Musicale is an event held every year in our school where music is performed for families of the students that come to watch. However, you have to pay at the beginning and it's quite expensive. So I'm telling my parents not to come because there isn't much reason to. I'll just tell them to wait outside. Hehe.

So since this post is so boring without pictures or anything I'll add a random picture in which I took a long time ago (:

And yes they are roses. (: Heh. I took them early this year I think. Or last year....Which one do you like the most? Leave a comment below (:

New keyring (:

Hey guys,

[Mood: Procrastinating]
[Listening to: On my Knees by Jaci Velasquez]

So my dad goes to this school to learn English. He has this friend that has a daughter around the same age as me. So then she wanted her daughter to meet new people so her daughter gave my dad her email address and a keyring. It was really nice of her but I've never even met her O_O. Anyways, the keyring is really interesting. You can take out the star thing in the middle apparently. I haven't been able to do that yet but if I do I'll let you know.

Here's a picture of it:



Click to enlarge (:




Click to enlarge.

There are 4 openings that help the star thing in the middle to get out. I should try to get it out (: Sometime ...and I'll blog about it if I do get it out (: Probably will take me ages.

Until next time,
Michelle xx

Update No. 23 - More shopping and emailing

Hey guys,

So today was my last Chinese school lesson for Term 2. We have 3 weeks holidays, but for school, we have 2 weeks. So one more school week to go/ 5 days to go!! So happy.

This morning, I decided to clean part of my bookcase to make room for more moo (only Julia would get that lol) otherwise known as other crap. And I packed for school and wrote a shopping list.
