Shopping for Crystals

I love shopping in swarovski and getting cute figurines. My favorite lovlot is Violetta. My favorite bear figurine is called "flowers for you". My favorite clear figurine is a beagle. Here let me show you a picture.

My Baby Sister

I got a new baby sister she is so cute! Her name is Erin. She sometimes is impatient to eat her food. She is a cutie pie! I am very lucky that my mother did use Erin for her name. I chose it for her, and I still sometimes feel proud that my mother loved that name so much. Erin is still very much a picky eater, and I can hardly change that. But hopefully her weight will eventually grow...

My new school

I have started a new school called Travilah. I love it so much! It is so much more exiting than my old school. I have made so many friends! Catherine, and Jochabed. I still remember those silly days of frolicking. Catherine and I sometimes did disputes. She was a great runner, and still is. Besides that, we also have lots of different things to do. Sometimes it feels really weird. In Singapore, we were given so much more freedom and we could do so many things independently. I guess in America things are different. I am still getting use to it, but I think now I at least know who my real friends are.

Buo Buo

When I went to China, there was a big cat named Buo Buo. His full name is Deng Xiu Lan Buo. I really enjoyed playing with him, and the main reason for this was that I have never had a furry, actual pet other than fish, which I still don't think count because you can't really do that much with them. On the day we had to say goodbye, I felt kind of glum. I doubt Buo Buo had a clue that I had to leave, but then again, he is old for a cat and has grown much lazier than a sprightly, energetic kitten. However, I still love him, and I recently heard that he has courted with another cat and they have had kittens. I cannot wait to see them, though I do wonder when that will be...

Times

A few days ago I stayed under the water for 63 seconds. It felt really amazing to do it because after I emerged I felt a sense of pride when I heard the disbelief in my Grandmother's voice. I still remember her shock. To this day, I really wonder if she counted right, but I still remember my pride. 
Today I hoolahooped longer than I ever did before. Mommy has gotten really good at it, and she can almost go on forever, it seems! She only had to stop to slap a mosquito off her. To watch her flailing like that, it's very humorous. And I still sometimes feel nostalgic for that moment.

Phuket Island in Thailand

I went to Phuket, Thailand. We really had a great adventure there, frolicking on the sandy beaches, checking out the amazing architecture, seeing the natural sights.  We got a hotel  near Patong   beach, which is where I am in the photo. I waited patiently (I think) for almost 30 minutes (or at least I remember it being that long) while a kind lady braided my hair, Thai style. You can see in the picture my short little hair, with the pretty colored beads hanging down. I thought I looked a little silly, but the beads were cool. 

I also went to a show called Fantasea. It was really amazing, with the glowing lights and things. I saw lots of Thailand style things. I even have a silly photo of me, posing in the exact way a statue is. I still remember my mom telling me to go like the person behind me. It was a cute moment.

My Drama Camp

I recently went to a drama camp in the summer! I had lots of fun! I remember the first day, I was so nervous, and I reluctantly walked in to the building and made a frame where I would later put my photo in. I was slightly happy that Cindy, my long time friend, was going to be there.  

Unfortunately, that was about where my luck ended. Soon, they put us into groups. According to how many siblings we had. Sadly, Cindy had recently gotten a new baby sister, making us in different groups. I would later enjoy the groups. We did lots of things. 

I performed a show called"Don't let the Pigeon Stay Up Late". The joy of making costumes (wings!) and performing was really amazing. Looking back on it, I am slightly surprised that I wasn't nervous, since I am normally a kind of shy person. In fact, we were so excited that we rushed up on stage, and a person quickly motioned us to come back down, because in fact, we weren't supposed to be up there yet! 

In addition to all that, I made a new friend named: Jung. I think she was my friend. We talked, I remember. In fact, I am sort of surprised, because I don't really think that she thought of us as really good friends. The weird thing is that she had better friends. When I was younger and more ignorant, this didn't bother me at all. I thought I had made a new friend. The odd thing is that now it hurts me. But I will look back at Drama Camp as a learning experience.
