Hectic life!

Hello wello! Finally time for an update after a long hiatus! So sorry for neglecting my blog these days. Really wanted to blog from time to time, but I can't. This is so depressing rite? Uni life have been cruel to me so far, with quizzes and assignments pilling up like nobody business. Somehow, throughout all the stress and hard work that I went through so far, I gained more knowledge and skills to be a better one in future. It would be a long, tough, stressful process, but I will just have to keep my hopes on, have faith that I can do it, that I can complete my degree program and become a successful 'mass-commer'! Dream on! :)

Lately, I have interesting stuffs going on in my uni life. Performing Arts is kinda challenging for me, because I'm a shy shy girl that do not know how to express myself, especially through emotion. My sadness, anger and frustrations = one sad blank face expression. LOL! So through this Performing Arts subject, I have to really open up myself, forgetting who I am and go for it. At first, I did have a hard time adapting to this situation, because almost everything I'm not doing it willingly. Until now, I'm slowly enjoying the process of performing in front of crowd.

Here are some of the performances that I went through so far :

1. Individual performance - Singing 'Mean' by Taylor Swift 
A big failure for me, as I forgot the lyrics due to my extreme nervousness!

2. Group performance - Contemporary Dance using the song 'Ave Maria'
Enjoyed the dance because the dance moves were not complicated yet filled with emotions. 

3. Group performance - Narration / Short sketch using the song 'The Story of Us' by Taylor Swift
Best performance so far, not because of our results, but the whole process of practicing! We have less than 24 hours time to plan and practice our performance, but we managed to complete it with minor mistakes.

Hola to my group mates for the performance 'The Story of Us'!


Next performance on upcoming Thursday - Narration + Contemporary Dance using Lakini's Juice Live with theme : Anger and Frustrations. Sounds challenging isn't it?


Owh, I just received my Running Man tee two days ago! 
Am so so so happy to receive it and I can't wait to wear it with my friends! =P


P.S  Don't tear my tag when you see me wearing this tee around!

Her voice is amazing!

Like seriously, this particularly girl/teenager/woman really caught my attention after I watched her singing live in Asian Wave 2012 via youtube! She is truly a talented idol, with such a powerful + intense voice! Was really amazed by her singing skills, and I salute her to the max!

Who is she? She is the one and only one - Shila Amzah! Although she is a Muslim, but she could sing songs in 3 languages - English, Malay and Chinese! Previously, she was a runner-up in One in A Million Season 2 competition and today, she represented our country to take part in Asian Wave 2012, competing with other contestants from all over the world like China, Thailand, Korea etc. And she managed to beat the others and emerged as the champion in Asian Wave 2012! She was featured on Star Online as well. Click here for more details.

Check out her amazing performances here!

Set Fire to The Rain

Couldn't believe that she could sing this song so well! 

Gemilang 
*1st song during finals*

Grenade

What do you guys think about her singing eh? Isn't she amazing?
So proud of her, and she makes our country so proud! 
Malaysia Boleh! :)

Busy semester ahead!


Just one quick update for the week! :)

1. Had my first ever contemporary dance performance with my group mates on Thursday, and we managed to complete the performance successfully! A big big love to my group members and of course my group leader, Chien Min for being such an awesome choreographer for the whole thing! :)

2. My first assignment in my new semester is BLOGGING! Not using Blogger, but using Weebly this time. Not a 'too bad' platform to blog though. 

3. Assignments are piling up like a boss now. Blogging assignments, video assignments, marketing plan assignments and tonnes of performances to deal with.

4. In a process of applying a part-time job in Taylors to gain working experiences + extra money! :)

5. Joined leadership program under Taylor's with Jessie, and we are both in the same group! Woots! More events and activities coming up soon! Looking forward to it! :)

6. Latest time table is up! And I have classes from Monday to Saturday! Lifeless betul!!! Now my weekends are ruined! :(


Wanted to update my blog as frequent as possible, but I have no time to do so. Sigh. Will try to keep my blog alive! :)

*Chien Min is such an awesome leader, who is so patient in teaching us the dance moves. Salute her like 99!! Glad to have her as my leader! Mwah! :)


Will be having our dance performance at lecture hall on Thursday, which is 2 days later! And seriously, I'm kind of nervous though. First time dancing contemporary dance, which is very emotional and flexible. And I know I'm not a flexible type of person *my waist can't bend like a snake, LOL!*
Hopefully our dance performance will be as smooth as ABC ice kacang on Thursday!

PRAY HARD and WISH ME LUCK readers!! :)

Challenge accepted?

My semester 2 officially started last week, and this semester is definitely gonna be the challenging ones compared to my first sem, which is almost ALL in theory-based. Kinda looking forward for it, but at the same time, hopefully I can cope with all the stress and happenings around me! Hwaiting! :)

I registered for 6 subjects this semester, which is gonna be very tough to cope with because assignments will be piling up like a boss, and at the same time, I have to keep it up and maintain my progress of study. Those 6 subjects are Media Writing, Innovative Media, Principles of Marketing, Performing Arts, Personal Development and Basic of Japanese Language. I'm so excited to learn Japanese, hehee! Wondered how's my slang or accent while I speak Japanese to my friends or families. =P

Owh well, Performing Arts (PA) is my last minute decision because previously I registered for Intro to Management instead of PA due to my major concern. However, due to some personal reasons, I switched from management to PA, which is really a huge challenge for me.

My first thought equation: 

PERFORMING ARTS = PERFORM = STAND ON THE STAGE = I SING/DANCE/ACT = PEOPLE LOOK AT ME = I HAVE STAGE FRIGHT

But mass communication students cannot have all these problems, so I decided to accept the challenge and push myself to strive better. Currently preparing for my 1 minute individual performance - Singing MEAN by Taylor Swift. And hopefully I won't get real bad comments from my lecturer later at tutorial class. Pray hard :)




Next group performance in preparation : Slow/emotional contemporary dance.

Feel the love?


Lucky Guy by David Choi

Heart melted when I watch this video, and this song is just, lovely.
David Choi's voice is really warm. I guess I'll get addicted to it eh? =P
Go watch, if you haven't! :)




You make me feel, something I wish wasn't real at all.



Well,
You were never mine to begin with...

Kaaa-Ching!


Say HELLO to my 3rd NuffNang cheque! =]
Finally get to cash out after so long! *although its not a huge amount of money*


Some random thoughts just came across my mind while I was drafting this post.

"When I'll stop blogging eh?"

I don't know when I will stop blogging, to be honest.
Maybe I don't even know how to stop blogging, since blogging is my all time love since I started blogging around Form 4. To blog, and to share, is my priority since then.

I never know I will so attached to blogging until I know the existence of NuffNang. It feels like NuffNang is fulfilling my passion, my dream, my desire; with blogging contests, movie premier screenings, food/product reviews, attending events and stuffs. Whenever I get any congratulations emails from NuffNang, the feeling of happiness that I experienced is so overwhelming! And through NuffNang, I have widen my social networking circle, by knowing bloggers around the world. I truly appreciated it.


Thank you NuffNang! I love you!  =]
Will keep my blogging passion burning

港女十式!


My besties and I created our own version of 港女十式 !

Inspired by a Hong Kong drama entitled 回到三国, starring by Kenneth Ma, Tavia Yeung & Raymond Lam.


Let's see Kenneth Ma's 港女十式 !

1, 2, 3 ..... 9 & 10!


Carmen, one of my besties, decided to copy his 港女十式 ! 
Of course, Eelyn and I would love to copy it, since we always camwhore during our hang-outs.  =P


So, this is our version of 港女十式 !

Pose #1

Pose #2

Pose #3


Pose #4


Pose #5


Pose #6

Pose #7


Pose #8

Pose #9

Pose #10


And so, this is our version of 港女十式 !
What about yours? Feel free to share it with me! =P




Besties, are the ones who share happiness and sadness with you. They are the one who you can rely on when you need them. Hang out? Find them. Sing K? Find them. Bored? Find them. No place to sleep? Find them. Camwhore? Find them. They are always your loyal listeners and counsellors, your all time favourite people. So, treasure them while you can. It's hard to get a friend, and even harder to get a bestie, right?
