Observing and interpreting can be painful. Especially when what you see is opposed to how you see life unfolds, and not necessarily imperative in your favorable view of life. *cringes
Friends and family injects much fun into one's life. What would one do without them? If only all family and friends wouldnt have conflicting opinions and tense arguments on one's life and decisions, all would be good. Anyway, who am I to judge?.......
It is disappointing to see how malaysia's democracy is structured through a very racial framework. In making economic decisions, appeal to other races is always taken into consideration. Again this is the whole debate on religion vs. economy development. Education and the govt. corruption are just some of the many problems that plague malaysia.....I believe malaysia will do better with much liberal and open-minded leaders like dr.mahathir. i didnt know he was the one who introduced gas to power taxis as a more efficient solution to govt. deficits and the economy! bravo? haha. nwy, enough with dull and silly talk! on a totally different note...........

i never actually realised nor appreciated bollywood films. i guess its a stereotyped instill in me that indian dances and music is unappealing. however. dhooom really pried my eyes open to this vibrant, talented industry. a pulsating entrĂȘe to the movie. Hrithik Roshan has the moves!

Holidays!
Holidays! Another period of which i go to another different homestay....and suffer different things. And i'm listening to GreenDay's HOliday! A colloquial phrase often used: Time just flies so fast aye? It seems just a few days but 11 weeks and a term has gone past just like that.
And I just want to wish everyone good luck in tomorrow's sports day! I'll be rooting for YELLOW~! Go zhuowei emelia xiauwei melvyn and all d other yellow sportwo/men!
Uncomfortabilities of my homestay for this holidays
-I have to share a small room with my friend, of which the drawers and cupboards are full of his clothes. Which leaves me to store my things just in the suitcases. Not good at all!
-53kbps speed internet connection. Another words, dial up. It breaks after like every 3 mins so i can't upload nor download anythhing! Which means slow slow slow msn chatting and blogging.
Many things happened during the end of term 1, I'll just post one or two. XD
Music
-Believe it or not, I'm on a music tour to the US and UK! My teacher said they were lacking violinist so since i was qualified enough, (over grade 3)i was chosen. I'm not boasting that i'm good or anything, but I"ve always wanted to go to US and visit hollywood which we will!
-You guys may be thinking, oh its just a tour to other countries, its nothing, I could go if i wanted i just have to play an instrument.
-But this is going to tour on the best music schools in UK and US, and if it'll be quite dearly if this opportunity is missed. The cost is simply huge, a whopping 6000 nz dollars. And my parents are still finding ways to finance it. Here's a picture of our itinery next year at usa and uk. and another hearing to the piano. haha

Notice Day 13, where we'll be going to Hollywood and Universal Studios. I can't wait to see how the famous english movies are produced there! and mayb spot a few CELEBRITIES too. haha
-Last three weeks in march we had the Hawkes Bay Band Festivals hosted in our school. I wasn't playing in any band taking part, because bands that took part mainly had woodwinds and percussions in it. So i helped with the setup! I got to see many other schools like Freyberg Senior High School, Fielding Brass, Concord Symphonic Band (our own school band), and Bay Cities Symphonic Band(adults and old people lol.) perform in a way very different from an orchestra.
-One day i shall bring a saxophone back to malaysia and show you how diff it sounds. I shall posts pics later in the week.
Sports
-Winter sports! i'm playing soccer and badminton. I went for a hawkes bay badminton trials last week for U-17 and i got in! can you believe that? Obviously the standard of badminton here is low. haha. Contradicting myself. Here's a pic of me with a random mixed doubles partner. And for soccer i'm in the 4th XI. Means i'm in the fourth best team, out of five. haha.
The net's uploading is so SLOW that i gotta stop here incase the line doesn't break down. I'll do a new post tomorrow with some pics i took at hawkes bay band festival and of my homestay. CiaoZ!
