Happy Birthday My School!

Yesterday, (Friday, November 20th, 2009) was my school's 10th anniversary. And it was also an awesome day...

As I've said in one of my blog posts in September, the school held a big celebration for its 10th year. And I was in the choir. The celebration had two sessions: the evening show and the night show. Four of my friends and I participated in both sessions, and we had a lot of fun. The evening and night show were more or less the same; there were only three or four different songs (though the ones in the evening were the ones I like more) and one different dance. Our music director was someone famous (or at least I think so; the teachers said he's famous and I got a lot of result when I googled him): Aminoto Kosin. He was a good and fun person, even though I was only in the choir...

I really never thought my school could held something as great and epic as yesterday's celebration. Well, of course, outside parties helped a lot. I doubt we could have shows like what we had yesterday without them (the people who played trumpets, trombones, cellos and THE contra bass in the orchestra, not to mention the music director XD).

Anyway, I had quite an ashaming day yesterday, even though I enjoyed it as well XD A teacher put lots of make up on my face until it looks quite scary and... old D: A friend helped me to erase some of the thick purple eyeshadow applied on my eyelids, but I still looked scary D: The eyeshadow didn't disappear until this morning... ._. Not to mention my dress was, erm, loose... So I had to pull it up hundreds of times as it kept going down and showed my erm, part in my chest that you would not like to hear XD

UP!!!

Have you seen the Pixar movie "Up"? It's a nice, sweet, wonderful, cute and touching movie of an old man who lost his wife and now beginning an adventure with a young boy... xD But I guarantee it's good, even though it's cartoon (and I don't usually like nowadays non-anime cartoons... So trust me >.>)

And it has a very sweet yet rather sad theme song... Entitled "Married Life" by Michael Giacchino. It's one of the versions I found on Youtube, and there are still more!

I highly recommend to watch Up ^_^ Try it. Hehe~ And may your life go up like the movie!

Rain <3

It rained today, after school. And it's only the 2nd rain we have here since the beginning of November... And November is supposed to be the middle of the rainy season >.> At any rate, I'm glad it rained! Rain clears the sky and the pollution and makes me happy! Though there are a lot of people who don't like rain and think that rain is gloomy and sad and everything else, I actually like rain much more than clear, sunny day. Maybe it's because it's rather hot here... (or not). Rain gives me the feeling of safety and happiness ^.^

Rain...
Fall upon the earth
Rain...
Washes all deception and distrust
Rain...
You bring me happiness

Annoyed! D:

Well... I am... annoyed... at my school. Very much.

This is why:
My school, as I have said one or two months ago, is going to celebrate its 10th birthday soon. And I've been in that school since it first opened. And now I'm participating in the event of, erm, dancing and singing and music and stuff... Something like a grand music concert to celebrate the school's 10th birthday. And the worst thing is... They make the parents pay to watch their children performing! D: And the parents are the ones who paid for our 10 years in the school... T.T

But yeah... Other than being annoyed, I am doing very well. We have much less lessons at school as a lot of time is contributed to practicing for that event. And I haven't had any Indonesian Language lesson this week! =D Not that I don't like that lesson, but we're going to take a lot of notes, and I'm very lazy at writing.

Song of the Day: Chopin Etude op 25 no 1 It's a very nice song, really, even though it's an etude.

How Long Can You Go?

I was really bored earlier this afternoon, so I measured how long I could hold my breath for. I tried for 3 times, and here are the results:

First try: roughly 1 minute and 2 seconds
Second try: roughly 1 minute and 9 seconds
Third try: roughly 1 minute and 3 seconds

On my previous try, I was only able to hold my breath for like 44 seconds so this is a great improvement! XD How long can you hold your breath?
