hey guys,

Well it is the 24th december 2009 and the year is coming to an end!

This year was one of the busiest years of my life, and tell ya what, it's not the last. I hope you guys have a very joyful Christmas filled with laughter and joy, and also have an AWESOME new year. Unfortunately i will be in Sydney just after the new year, but i will be back for new years. This week (tomorrow) i am going down south for a camping trip, it's nothing big, but it's gonna be so much fun!

Also, yesterday my friend Charly came over and we made t-shirts that we're gonna wear to Sydney. It's pretty funky and it looks like fabric paints threw up all over it. It's got our names and all written on it and it looks pretty awesome. Will post pictures up on Facebook. Please go friend me on facebook, Search Jackie Oh and you'll find me cause i have a picture of me.

Love you guys!

From Jackie xoxox

P.S this is the last post for 2009 :)

Well you know how i said yesterday was like ordinary, but today my day was very intersting. Today in S & E i got my results back for my Semester Exam, you'd be surprised with what i got, good news, i passed but by like 1 and a 1/2 points..I got 55%!! I am so disappointed with myself, i thought i did really bad in this test and i was right.

So that was S&E, in 3rd period i had Health, you'll never guess what we started learning today, this morning at about 10:15am...we started doing Sex Education...it was terrible, we had to be given a quiz to do and no one answered any of the questions. XDD. It was kinda funny at first but it got better, everyone was just giggling, but apparently we have to learn it in more detail, everybody's worst nightmare!! Thankfully after that it was recess, everyone in Health got to clear their heads from the horrible images, not that i was thinking of any myself :).

After recess i had Computing Extension, and it was Ben's last day in year 8. I think he is going to Germany or something, not sure, but BYEE BEN! So he is leaving and all, so in computing extension, our teacher bought us 3 boxes of pizza because we did very well in a test and for the rest of the lesson we had free time on the computers!!! This was all because we did well in a test and because Ben was leaving. What a great period 4!

After that glorious pizza i had to face Mrs Hojer, i didn't have anything to be guilty about, but when you're around Mrs Hojer, you being there just makes you feel guilty..so yeah, i just chatted with my friend Chryslin for most of the lesson, about the topic we're studying :D.

After Lunch i'm meant to have Mrs Hojer again but i had my guitar lesson, and i was the only one that turned up!! Carissa and Charlotte (year 10's) had forgotten their lesson and came in period 7 when it was actually in period6 XDD So they looked like goofs. But it was good becaues Mrs Rossi got to speak to me like 1 on 1. So yeah...i guess soo..

Now this was the really crap part of my day...After i come back from my music lesson i usually have Science, well on Tuesdays anyway, so i had science, and my science books weigh like 5 kg so i dont carry them with me to music, so i go to Student Services to go sign my name in and go to my locker then go to science, because my locker is like right outside my class, anyway i went to my locker today, and there was a teacher standing nearby, i didn't really think he would bother me and all, but he did =,=. He came up to me and said, "No you are not going to locker because you should have done it during lunchtime" but i did explain to him that my books are heavy and i had music, but obviously it was good enough for him, so i had to go into class with no books or paper.

The worst part is that he didn't let me after i explained!!!!! What a cruel teacher... =.= btw, i borrowed paper to do my work..and had to look over someone else's textbook.

Well i have to go now, oh yeah and wind 2 was good!

ILYA! Jackie xox

Haro' again! Today was a pretty ordinary day...

This morning as in my last post i had Tour Guitar, and only 4 people turned up!! We were given a new song, Teddy Bears Picnic xDD. They actually have a score for that, i was like Awesome. In 1st period i had a percussion lesson which was combined and all the year 8's were in the same lesson. It was pretty cool, i have to learn and practice A flat major, which has 4 flats, b,e,a,d, lol spells bead! When i got back to English Mrs Hojer was in a bad mood as per usual...

Well after English, Science and Maths i had Music! Music is just so awesome, can't get enough of it, everything to do with music is awesome, listening to it, playing it, everything associated with music is basically awesome, i love music, my life is basically music :).

I play 2 instruments, Classical Guitar (since year 5), and Percussion (since year 6). I also participate in school choirs which i started since year 4 and i joined the Australian Youth Choir because they came to our school when i was in year 6 and they like advertised it so yeah, that's how i joined and all...

Well i told you i would talk to you about scouts so i will, I do scouts, i joined at the beginning of last year. I love it, i think you should join too, if you like camping, or doing adventurous stuff, scouts is just for you! Yes, there is badge work as well, but it's quite fun, because we get to learn new things, and it takes you places...

So that's my little breifing on scouts. Hope you join!!

ILYA Jackie xox

By the title it's a Sunday, so who loves sundays? I DOOO! -raises both hands-.

Today i had a pretty interesting day...i woke up at 8am and then had breaky! For breaky i had an omelate, it was yummy. Dad makes the best omelates, what does your dad do best? Before i go on and on in tangents i will continue back on track. After breakfast we took Susie the dog for a walk and we saw 8 ducks swimming in the nearby creek, they were sooo utterly cute, i took a video of them swimming! Unfortunately my video won't upload D:<. Sorry guys... After our short walk me and mum went climbed onto the roof of our house and painted the top bit. It now has a fresh coat of paint and weather sheild stuff on it :D. Dad was mowing the lawn while we were painting. It was getting late, about 1:30pm now, and dad decided we would go into the city to eat lunch. We had average roast duck rice. Then we raided Target!! I bought a new pair of shoes, 4 new singlets, and 3 pairs of shorts.

On the way home we stopped by Hungry Jacks and bought 1 soft serve and a medium fries! When we got home i had to do my homework and i am meant to be finishing it off right now but i decided to do some blogging since i haven't done so in quite a while.

Today is my nana's Birthday. Happy birthday to you nana! Have a great one!

I would also like to wish Happy birthday to Jessica Luk and Mokshya Baladge! Happy Birthday guys!!! Their biffy was on the 5th of November!

Back to normal text. Yesterday i got my hair re-streaked or as Charly said "touched-up" but i had some extras in there too :). It's the same colour but heaps brighter!! Here are some pictures.



The 1st time i streaked it In the process My new hair!!



So my hair is all well and beautiful, did i mension i layered it..

Well it's Term 4 of school as a year 8 i feel, excited!! This term every single day after school i have to stay back until about 4:45 or 5:15 at the latest!!

Mondays - Wind Orchestra 1/ Tour Band, which is the most advanced orchestra in the school and plays the most challenging music and is for real musicians!

Tuesdays - Wind Orchestra 2, which is for medium leveled mucisians who are willing to try.

Wednesdays - Jazz Band, obviously by the name is for people who want to play "Jazz Music" and is only for Saxaphones, Trumpet, Trombone, Double Bass Electric Guitars, Bass guitar, Piano and Percussion, FYI i play percussion

Thursdays - Tour Choir, for all people going on tour next year, it's compulsory D:

Fridays - Tour Strings, For all people who are going on tour who play string instruments again, i am only a percussionist in that, although i do play classical guitar but that is not counted as a "String" instrument.

That's only the afternoons, i have very early mornings sometimes too!! Sometimes my day goes from a 6:00am start (waking up) until like a 10:00pm end (Sleep).

Mornings

Monday - Tour Guitar - for all guitars going on tour next year

Tuesday - Guitar Ensemble - for the rest of the guitarists including tour people

Wednesday - Nothing, well catch up on homework time basically :/

Thursday - Tour Choir - Yes, we have tour choir in the morning and the afternoon, but the afternoon session goes from 3:25 (school ends) till 4:30 so that's not so bad...

Friday - NOTHING again catch up on homework, but who wants to it's a friday!! and i used to have year 8/9 choir so next year i will have that on fridays.

I have also had a pretty full on couple of months with Scouts stuff, but i will tell you alot of that in the next post...

ILYA! Jackie xox

Everybody hates tests, well i certainly do, oh and don't forget the horrible assignments that follow it.

Well this term on the recent friday i had a maths test, and then tomorrow i have another one, and then in Society and Enviroment i have an assignment due in week 8. Oh did i mension that i have 2 science tests as well this week...

Anyway it's all very hectic, but this coming weekend i get to relax!!! We're going up north for one night and we're staying in a caravan, it's gonna be awesome, i'm excited! I know it sounds silly but i've never slept in a caravan before!!

Oh, and on Friday night (this week) scouts are going to the local swimming pool!! YAY it's gonna be awesome, because we get to go on the water slides, and all!! WOOPEEEE, anyway i have now officially got FACEBOOK, so please go add me, unless you already have...

Anyway cya later!!

HELLO AGAIN!

I've been so busy lately, SUPER busy. I had heaps of music festivals!! I had 2 Orchestra festivals, 1 guitar festival and 1 chorale festival, it was hectic. Today i had the last of all festivals, the chorale festival. It was awesome, i think we were the largest choir in the whole festival!

Anyway there were some group photos taken for each ensemble, i have all the ensembles except for the choir, but i can tell you we have 140 students in it.

Guitar Ensemble funny picture.

Guitar Ensemble formal picture

Wind Orchestra 2 Formal Picture

Wind Orchestra 3 Funny Picture

Well those are my music Festival pictures, see you in the next post...

Hi all,

Last week was pretty full on, i had 2 camps, in a row. I had my school music camp, which was at Woodman Point, and i had my scouts camp which was at Kalamunda Camel Farm. Sorry to my teachers but i loved my scouts camp better than the music camp, i thought it was better because there were awesome challenge activities.

As you should know, it's now August, -hint title hint-. Well in my school August is a performance month, and don't forget most importantly Festival month. Festivals are what every single music person looks forward to every year. All our hard work from ensemble and band practice goes towards this moment. Because i play 2 instruments i'm in more bands/ensembles so therefore i have more festivals to attend, oh and the festivals, there is one for each type of ensemble.

Gotta go bye!

Hi everyone,

Ok i've got some bad news and some really exciting news!

The bad news, i dont know why but i'm starting with it first so deal with it.

1. I had to put my piercing earings back in so my ears could heal more.

2. IT HURT WHEN I PUT THE BACKING ON!

Now to the good news. I love good news dont you?

1. I've got a music camp coming up this week followed straight after by a scouts camp.

2. I'm going to have 3 days off of school.

5. ANDD i'm a patrol leader now in scouts WOOOh

Love you lots, please follow me ect.

I'll keep you posted, ILYA Jackie!

Well today is my last day at home. It is my last day of school holidays, and my last day of relaxing, as tomorrow term 3 of scool starts. Or in other words "let the year continue". Which is good in some ways and uncertain in others. Good meaning that i get to see all my friends again. Uncertain because i don't know if i can handle yet another term of full on work. But i'm sure i'll get through it.

Onto other news...

My ears have stopped being itchy, which i think is a good sign, because

1. i don't have itchy ears

and

2. my ears are healing!

This thursday i will be able to take these earings out and put new ones in! YAY! :D

Should prolly go now..

ILYA Jackie xox

Well, today was the last day of my Australian Youth Choir music camp. It was awesome! There was also this dancer, his name was Tyler and he is soo omg... anyway i'll stop being girly and get on with my day.

Well last night, all the "senior scouts" had a meeting together at Taco's house. We discussed some patrol stuff and i'm a new PATROL LEADER!! I'm soo happy, i've always wanted to be a patrol leader and my ASSISTANT PATROL LEADER is Charly. We're both very happy i guess.

Tomorrow, which is Saturday, i have another bit of workshop from the computing one i mentioned earlier this week. We have one more day because we didn't get a chance to completly finish our project in those 4 days. Hopefully tomorrow we can see the final product.

Still need to take pictures of my new look and post em'.

ILYA Jackie xox

Well today i'm back from Malaysia. I also have a 4 day workshop which started yesterday. It's for computing extension, which is yes from school. But we're doing something really cool, we're re-building the science building with google sketchup, if you dont know what it is go google it up. After we've finished making it in google sketchup, we're going to publish it on google earth. HOW COOL IS THAT!

After that workshop is done, i have a music workshop for 3 days with the Australian Youth Choir. It's gonna be awesome!

ILYA! Jackie xox

OMG you'll never guess what happend today!! I got my ears pierced and my hair streaked!! It's soo awesome. Unfortunately i have to leave in these earings for 3 weeks until the hole is healed. Before you ask me, my streaks are copper coloured. They're soo awesome! I'll be posting pictures up as soon as i've got time to take them XD. I'm gonna be so busy the next week. 2 workshops....

Anyway gotta go Byee!

ILYA Jackie xox

Well today, i woke up at like 3:45am in the morning! I still haven't caught up sleep and jet lag ect. Anyway i'm writing this post because i just wanted to let you guys know that i'm now currently in Malaysia. I tell you, it's sooo stinking hot, it's really sticky and humid here (and dad i know the meaning of it now) i'm currently sweating my butt off sitting infront of the computer, the fan switch is over there and i can't get up.

Continuing with my journey it was a 5 hour journey. Luckily there was on-flight entertainment. Mum had to pay like 28 RM just for me to watch stuff ect. But i tell you it was SOOO worth it. Mum used it to play sudoku XD (mum loves sudoku) Anyway when we finally landed it was so hot. Very humid, the temperature was 29 degrees celcius!! Man that's hot.

Anyway tomorrow morning, mum owes me a Ham Ching Peng which is this really sweet/savoury bread bun thing. It's got cinnamon and other stuff in it that makes it sooo YUMMY!! Ideal breakfast!

I'm now going to go the my room which has a nice fan going and catch up on sleep and recover from Jet lag.

ILYA xox Jackie

Well, it's now officially the holidays! The recent dream camp was so much fun! We got to build our own tents and then sleep in them, although it was very cold, Zoe and I had a big duna (blanket) and were literally squished together in a small tent :D.

We got our reports as well!! I got 6 A's and 2 B's!! yay i was so happy! Unfortunately Ms. Spagnolo, my english/form teacher, has left my school, she's gone to get a new job.. :( We'll miss her incredibly.

I have no idea why, but i feel really nervous about tomorrow, as some of you might know where i'm going, i just feel a little bit shaken and nervous, i mean what is there to be nervous about? Seriously...anyway i have to go bed now.

ILYA xoxo Jackie

Hello.

Today was pretty normal. S& E to start with then food. They were boring, then i had computing extension, we played with google sketch up, then in form period, we had a relief teacher :( she was really strict and shouted a lot. But not at me :D. Then in English we had Ms. Spagnolo. She's the awesomest teacher EVER!! apart from Mrs Brown my year 5 teacher. Unfortunately she's leaving next term D:. Anyway after that i had 1 period of science then i had to leave cause of my guitar music lesson. Today i got tested on 2 pieces and I PASSED!! yay. Testing will continue next term.

This week as you may already know, IS THE LAST WEEK OF THE TERM!!! Semester 1 has nearly ended, and Amanda Lee will be leaving soon. She is going to Thailand for 1 year! ILY AMANDA! Anyway we'll be getting our reports from our form teachers at the end of this week.

Gotta go finish HW byee!

xox Jackie

Today is dad's birthday!! WOOOH!! I can't tell you how old he is, cause it's like rude or something. So i won't. But i'll tell you what we did do. We went to stay at a place called Homestead Red. It is down south near York and Northam. This weekend we went to the "Food and Wine" Festival. It was in Yorks town hall. Mum and Dad did the wine tasting ect. and i stuck to the food :D.

The Homestead Red place was a very nice farm, and the person who ran it was Holly, she was very nice. She had 3 dogs, and 1 joey that followed her anywhere. We stayed in the guest house, which was very big. It had 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 kitchen, 1 laundry and a massive yard. It was like staying in a paddock because it had a padock gate as the gate. We were closest to the sheep padock so we baaed with them all day and night XD. I got to ride on a horse too. We got to trot ect on it. The feeling was so exhilirating when we were trotting, because you would be jumping up and down.

Anyway, this week is the last week of term 2 then it's HOLIDAYS! yay! Right now, it's very bad weather, its raining constantly, windy and very very cold.

ILY xox Jackie

Hi everyone

I had a school maths test today, i think i got average, but i dont know yet. Some of the questions were easy but some of them were really hard.. I'm currently in the accelerated class which is higher than the general class, but lower than the extension class, which is the G.A.T.E class which is Gifted and Talented Education.

Today i also went to Mariam's house, she just moved into her new house which is AWESOME! They've got an awesome kitchen it's so big and modern like. It's awesome!

Tonight i've got scouts and unfortunately there's been a "problem" arise...so i'll tell you more later maybe..

Anyway i'm really hungry so...gotta go!

Ily to you all xoxo

Jackie

P.S

I made an Strawberry Coconut Slice in food class with my awesome friend Shan Li! Gooo Shan!

hai everyone!

Guess what! I got a new guitar! i was soo excited, yesterday my parents just said that we would just go and "look" at it but then we ended up buying it and i was like OMG THANK YOU SOO MUCH! Anyway i also got an Ergo rest. It's pretty cool.

Anyway today Jess is gonna come over, because she hasn't come over in AGES! Everytime we plan something she has to cancel...just hope she doesn't cancel this time.

I also recently went to my cousins 7th birthday! look i got a picture of him blowing out his candles!
They had the birthday party at their new house. It's a double story and it's big!! I love the house, it's so modern, they built it themselves.

On monday i have concert prac. EEP, concert prac is basically where you perform a piece of music on your instrument. I'm going to be playing Ode to Joy on the Marimba. I'm so nervous this is my first concert prac ever!

bye bye ily xox. Jackie

Winter, i think, is officially here! But the weather is being really random, it's like cold and rainy one day and sunshine and HOT the next. Anyway this weekend is the Foundation Day long weekend. I have a tonne of HW... mostly English HW. I've done the most challenging one, the essay, which was about Farewell Rocketship the video clip. If you want to see essay email me and i'll give it to you, but i doubt you wanna read it.. lol anyway. I still have a Debate speech to do, a CD label to design (due thursday), Poster for an upcoming disco, and a maths thing.

Have i ever told you how much i love my school, well i'm gonna tell you now cause i really love it, it's like the best school ever! It's got awesome people in it, accept for the pepole who think they're the best and all that, OH OH and i'm going to Scandanavia next year WOOOHOO!! It's gonna be awesome! I'm also going to Sydney! Scandanavia for the school music tour and Sydney for the Jamboree!

This is really random but i want to tell you that i bought a glue pen today because all those really expensive glue sticks DON'T WORK! Don't trust the really expensive glue sticks, they end up shrivelling up and dying in it's hole.. so don't buy the expensive glue sticks they suck, the glue pen i bought was a good glue and doesn't dry up and die in a hole, it only dry's on paper! I also bought a 2 in 1 liquid white out. It's pretty cool, and also i don't like those rolly white outs, they suck cause they stuff up, and if it wasn't for my mum on countless times i would've just thrown away my white outs but my mum the awesomeest mum in the world, fixed my white outs and i could use them again !! :D.

Anyway enough about stationary, let us talk about how fast the year is going, it's like gone so quick, it's like just yesterday i graduated from primary school, ;( those good old days...

Ok...gotta go now, bai-bai!

Hello everyone! Over the holidays which have just been, i did heaps of things! I went camping twice!! The 1st camping trip was down south to Busselton, it was awesome! I never actually realsied this but we stayed in a challet, our tent. Our awesome tent is an Oztrail tent and is a 2 room tent. We've been camping with it for yonks! I think we should name it soon. Anyway we went down to a Scout campsite and stayed there for about 5 days. It was awesome fun! This time we didn't got to that many wineries and breweries cause you know i'm just a kid and i can't drink YET. So when i can drink going down to Busselton and Margeret River will be AWESOME FUN! It was super fun down south and we got to use our new inflatable canoe! Here are some pics;

Lol me on the DIVEYAK

I can stand on
it you know?

See :P

Trying it out in
the backyard

Staring at it...

Anyway my other camp was a scout camp, it was at Manjadel scout grounds, it was awesome, very relaxed, and it was about World Conservation. I have earnt a badge too. I love scouting, and you know what i'm like only 3 things away from getting my blue level (2nd highest level). I'm also a senior scout now too, for those people who don't know what scouts is. But i know many of my scout friends would read this soo HIIII, AND I'M GOING TO JAMBOREE, OOH, by the way, we're doing some funraising for Jamboree, and it's at Bunnings Warehouse so come and buy a sausage sizzle from us and help us get there!


OK, that's bascially it from the holiday section...but i'll see you in my next post.. XD

YAY! I got elected class Representative (or leader, whatevs) anyway i got a badge for it! The badge is black and white and it says "Form Rep" on it, how awesome is that! ( i know it's not really THAT awesome, i'm just high atm).

School's pretty awesome atm. I can't believe it's already week 6! Scarey stuff...anyway in other news;
There's gonna be A SOCIAL! My very first social, but it's unfortunately on a Thursday so i dont know if mum'll say yes, i have A.Y.C. :(

Anyway gotta go, nighty night :D

Well, hi everybody that's in the rest of the world. I'm in Malaysia atm...IT'S BEEN AWESOME FUN!! Can you believe that it hasn't been at least a week yet?! Anyway i'm here to tell you about everything that's happend so far starting from day 1.

Day 1

Today we woke up normal time because our flight was only at 1:00pm, but we still had to be at the airport by 10 to check in early. (ask parents if you dont understand i know i didn't.) Anyway the time that was before the flight (the 2 hours) went by soo quickly. Well, we got on the flight, and we got comfy. A kind stuerd took a picture of mum and I. All pictures will be uploaded somewhere, tell you when i update for part2 in Malaysia. Anyway getting back to day 1. The flight was around about 5 hours, VERY LONG!! I thought i was going to sleep but i didn't. Anyway we flew on QANTAS and there was a TV!! I watched Beverlyn Hills Chiuaua because i haven't watched it before. Mum watched 2 movies, a weird ADULT MOVIE, and Mama Mia, she was a little disappointed because she didn't get to finsih Mama Mia because we were about to land.

We got to Changi airport ok. My feet were killing me already by then. Changi airport is sooo BIG HUGE GIGANTIC you name all the big words it's that. It's like 3 times the size of my airport. There were heaps of internet stations, HEAPS all over the place. We checked out of the departure lounge and thought we could check back in straight away. Unfortunately we had to wait 1 hour before the check in counter opened. Finally it opened and we got in, and sat the sky train, looked at all the terminals, ect. Until it was time to board our flight. Apparently the total amount of flight time was meant to be 1 hour, but that included taxing. The real amount of flight time was 25 mins!! SOO SHORT!! We checked out and we met up with my aunty. She was soo shocked to see me. My shortness had knocked her out.

Straight after we got out of the airport we went straight to eat Roti Chani/Roti Prata, SAME THING! Anyway that was my first culture shock. When we got home we went straight to bed.

Day 2

Today we went to do my IC and renew my passport. Oh man i don't want to go into detail of how long we had to wait and how much prossessing we had to do before the form actually went in. All i can say is THEY SPELT MY NAME WRONG AND WE HAD TO REENTER MY BIRTH CERTIFICATE DETAILS...there i said it all. That took at least 2 and a half hours i tell you.


Anyway the passport thing was very quickish...not...well, we had to make a temporary IC and that took abou 30 mins, and then the actual prosses took about 1 hour. So that wasn't soo bad, but it still sucked.

That day the food was AWESOME! I forgot what i had but whatever it was it was goooood1!!

Day 3

Today was the day we went to Taipeng and Penang. The trip to Taipeng was about 2 hours. Sara, Brian and I slept most of the way. We stayed in this little you could say guest house next to my gran-aunt's house. That night we went to a night safari. Let me tell you something, in my opinion i think it was a total rip off. ALL THE ANIMALS DIDN'T EXIST. There was nothing to see. Did you know that Taipeng is meant to be the wettest place in Malaysia. Yeah now you know, my mum also lived there when she was young (born there and grew up there) It was pretty awesome.

The next day we went to Penang, which was only about an hour or so away from Taipeng. I slept again for most of the way, and so did Bryan and Sara. I didn't get to see the Penang bridge at all because i was sleeping coming in and out of Penang Island. We went to stay with Jane my cousin. She's 1 year younger than me. We stayed up until 1am in the morning playing cards LOL.

I woke up pretty early the next day. I packed all my stuff into the bags, because today we were going back to the house. I slept again, for the way back. That night i slept like a baby. I was sooo exhausted.

Day 4

Today we went to Malaca, it was about 1 hours drive from PJ. The first thing we did was sit on the tricycle bike thing. It was pretty awesome because we went to see all the historical things there, after that we went on foot to see them properly, then we went to see a palace. They restored it to how they think it looked like when the sultan used to live there many centurys ago. Some of the historical things are almost 500 years old. All the stuff in Malaca was HEAPS old, like some of the stuff, was built in 1095 i think. Old right? Anyway after that we went to eat lunch. We had chicken ball rice. It was awesome, the rice were in balls not on the plate flat. It was very different!

After that, we went to walk on Jonker Walk. The street was strung with THOUSANDS of lanterns. I bought heaps of things, i bought a wave fan, sticky bubble blowers, and food! On the way back, we went to eat some ice shavings. It was very very very sweet. That night we had Shabu Shabu. Shabu Shabu is Steam boat but Japanese style. It's where you have a built in pot holder stove in the table. It's pretty awesome. There's one for each person. You get the food by taking it off the turning converbelt in the middle. It's like the sushi converbelt. Let me tell you IT WAS YUMMY!

Day 5

Today we were going to KLCC the heart of the twin towers! We were going to the twin towers OMG! The twin towers weren't as tall as i'd imagined them to be, but they were still pretty tall. But the KL tower was taller. First of all before we went into the twin towers, we had to go check out my passport. We went to the Australian High-Com thing. But we didn't have to doanything at all. Oh yeah did i mension WE PASSED THE KINGS HOME! ;P Anyway after that we went shopping under the twin towers. We bought heaps of clothes! We had lunch there and then came back for the afternoon.

Day 6

Today, we went to Sunway Pyrimid. Sunway Lagoon is its actual name. It is famous for the theme park, Resort and shopping centre. Let me just tell you the toilets there are really nice! For lunch we had rice, with some yummy malay food. The resteraunt was facing the theme park and i could see most of the theme park. It was like an african themed adventure world! After lunch we went to do more shopping and then went home.

Day 7

Today we were supposed to go to Genting in the morning but instead we ended up going in the afternoon. Mum had to go visit some people and buy dad's new teva shoes. Then finally in the afternoon we went up to Genting. The hotel room was AWESOME! I haven't stayed in a hotel room in ages. The rides were AWESOME! But the first day there we only got to go on the indoor rides. My favourite ride in the indoor theme park, was the Aero Express! It was an indoor rollercoaster. Oh yeah! There were also bumper cars! It was all pretty awesome, but seriously after that day i was exhausted so i went back to the hotel and SLEPT!

Day 8

Today we were going to the outdoor theme park! I had an all day theme park meaning that i could go on the indoor rides as well as the outdoor rides, but it was all pretty awesome. The first ride we went on was the 'Spinner'. Sara and I, were the only ones on that ride, it was pretty awesome. Then we went on Malaysia's first rollercoaster, the 'Cyclone'. It had soo many drops, like hills. It was soo fast. It didn't go upside down, but it made you feel like you were. The next few rides i had to sit with my 6 year old cousin. I have to admit it was very very boring...but he liked it and that's all that matters right? ^^

Anyway i think the next ride we went on was the 'Dinosaurland Park' thing. It was for my other cousin, who's like a freak with dinosaurs. Then from there we went to go sit the Flying Dragon, it's a REALLY REALLY fast rollercoaster. It goes vertical LITTERALLY! It makes you feel like you're gonna go upside down but you don't. The 'Flying Dragon' was my favourite ride. Then we went for lunch, which was yummy, then we went to sit, 'Rolling Thunder Mining train' which i didn't get to sit in last time cause i was too short. But now i could sit it! It goes really really fast, like a run-away train. Then it goes around in a circle really fast, and it's sooo loud.

That was the last ride we went on, then we had to go home. Most of the way i slept, AGAIN XD. From there, we went to my Aunties hair dresser and she cut our hair, that's why i have my AWESOME new hairstyle! That day was really awesome!

Day 9

Today was CHINESE NEW YEAR EVE! We were like cleaning everything, and putting up CNY decorations. It was very very frantic XD. But we got there in the end, it was a very short day, nothing interesting to do.

Day 10

Today was CNY! We went visiting heaps of aunties and uncles today, it was very confusing but i think i just got hold of who we went to visit. erm...Uncle Paul...Aunty Annie...erm..anyway getting on, i got heaps of hugs and kisses from people i just met. It was very freaky. But it was still pretty awesome. Guess what i had for lunch at one of the aunties house, i had rice! I'm a rice bucket, if there's rice i'll eat it ;P. When we got home it was basically people coming over to visit us! Then we played with pop pop and sparklers outside and it was really fun! Yeah, that's basically it.

Day 11

I forgot today? Dont know why? Just got a mind blank sorry!

Day 12

Today i know, because today we went to Singapore! It was like a 5 hour drive. When we finally got there, we had lunch, we were staying with my uncle's brother. It's a very distant uncle in-law cause its my aunties husband. Confusing i know, anyway i should make this snappy cause i know you guys are like getting really really really bored, and you're just about to stop reading soo...sorry about the long story, but it was over 2 and a half weeks. Anyway yeah, it was basically the trip to Singapore today.

Day 13

Today we went site seeing. We went around the main city of Sinapore. It was awesome! We got to see the Merlion, the Durians, and we got to sit on a boat tour! Then we saw alot of ERP! Every road pay!! XD I got it off a Singaporean movie called "Money no Enough" it was soo funny! I took some pictures lol.

Day 14

Today we were going home, we went to Changi Airports Buget terminal. People kept on saying it was really shabby and sucked, but it was actually really really good! There were internet stations and heaps of shops. At one of the shops i got my phone keyring. It has my name on it :). Our flight home was very boring, and it went very slowly. D'you know who was on the same flight as me!! DYLAN WONG! I was like what the? It was a really big coicidence because he was in Malaysia and Singapore at the same time as me. Anyway when we got home, i gave dad a really BIG hug! It's so good to be back!

Well that was the big adventure i had during my summer holidays. Sorry it's taken this long to publish, i've been very lazy :P. Anyway who likes the new look of my blog? XD

Hey guys,

Just wanted to wish you HAPPY NEW YEAR! It's 2009! wow last year went really well! I joined scouts and did heaps of fun stuff. It was my last year as well. Go back into my archives and read my previous stuff. Some of it is very interesting. Well i find it
interesting anyway.
What we saw the whole day
The other day i went canoeing. It was fun, we did it the whole day and we canoed 10km! It was sooo tiring. I had canoed in the single canoe while mum and dad were canoeing in the double. It was soo much easier for me to do it by myself. At the first rapid i went down fine and it was AWESOME! Mum and dad had to stop and dad had to get out because he was too heavy! So he had to push all


the way down XDD (btw XD is a smiley face) and it was soo funny. Dad weighed down the back of the double canoe because he was so heavy. So the double was basically diagnal ;).

All of us at the end of the day had sore butts and sore arms. It was so fun!! Here are some of the pictures we took.

Claiming and Naming my inlet
As you should know it's 2009!! Well on New Years Eve my mum, dad and me went fishing. We went in the evening. Unfortunately we don't have any picture but during the beginning when it was still bright (because of daylight savings) we were catching nothing


but blowies. We were soo bored. I thought that i would start counting how many blowies i caught. When it started getting dark...i thought i caught another blowy but instead i caught a YELLOW TAIL! I was soo happy. My parents started getting

Us at Jackie's Inlet (Named
it after me!) excited and my mum started fishing again. So overall we thought we would catch nothing but we ended up with 9 fish. Yup 9!! Caught by mum and me! I caught 7 and mum caught 2 dad didn't catch anything BUT blowies! XD


Well Happy New Year guyzz! Hope you have a good 2009 and it's 11 days till i go to Malaysia!! SO EXCITED!
