Last Sunday, I went for my swimming class with my sis.......which I do every Sunday. We were just getting in the pool to start the lesson, and we were hanging on to the wall trying to hold our breath underwater for at least 10 seconds.......and then we saw this boy.....probably not more than 8 years old, swimming past us with his head under water, the he comes up, floats on the water while checking his waterproof watch.......and then he sighs!............HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Evolution Of Dance

Friday, September 14, 2007

Last Friday was my school prom night. Too lazy to type about it. Overall, I enjoyed a night out with me friends. The performances were great but the food could have been better.

Anyway, I wanted to share a video with those who read my blog. It's called the evolution of dance. I think many of you might have heard about it. This guy does a 6 minute show of the ways people have been dancing since Elvis. Enjoy! :)




Fireworks

Saturday, September 1, 2007

Last night, my family and I went to Putrajaya to watch the fireworks. Last night wasn't the competition but was just a display of fireworks in conjunction with our nation's 50th Independence Day. It was SO NICE! :D I don't only mean the fireworks. Putrajaya itself is a beautiful place. The first thing you see when you look over the horizon is a city of lights. It was a beautiful sight. Then, when you come in to Putrajaya, you see........weird lampposts actually. I think they're showing us the "future Malaysia" or something. So we drove around trying to find the place. We didn't buy tickets and go into the place. Instead we chose a spot somewhere on the streets and laid out a mat to have a picnic.......which is what some other 1000 people did......hehe. It was a beautiful, windy place. The perfect spot for seeing fireworks. We had brought 4 boxes of pizza along. My cousins and aunt and uncle were with us as well. So we all sat on the mat and ate pizzas and did some catching up while waiting for time to pass. We were there quite early.......at about 8pm. The show was only starting at 10pm!

From where we were sitting, we could see the place where those who had bought tickets were having a good time. And, from the picture below, you can estimate how far we were from the place. You will be surprised to know that we could actually hear the music from inside!!!! Imagine how loud it would have been inside!! And then, 10 seconds before 10, we heard the countdown from inside. You could see everyone getting their cameras ready, staring at the sky. It was quite funny actually. Everyone, looking at the sky, waiting for the fireworks.......5

5.....4......3.....2......1! BOOM! OH my! It started on time alright! Hehe.
It was an amazing sight. Fireworks after fireworks! wow! The colours, the patterns! There was one were a few went shooting up to the sky and opened up in the sky to form the shape of a heart. There were so many of it.........one after another after another........amazing.
And then, barely 5 minutes later.......it ended! Just like that! It was probably 2 minutes.......give and take. And then, I realised that it doesn't matter, because bottom-line is I got to spend time with my family :)

Below is a video edited by my dad :)
