Halloween!

Yesterday was the BEST day ever!!


For lunch, Frances and I went to Allison's birthday barbecue party. Katy couldn't go because she had to prepare for her own party. We ate hot dogs and pork chops and Michelle was there too!! We prank called some people; it was funny.


Unfortunately, Frances and I had to leave the party early to go to Katy's party. 


Not long after Frances and I got back home, Katy's friends started arriving. For one of Katy's presents, she got 3 fish!! She was really happy :)


When everyone was there, we went to Happy Valley to get manicures and pedicures in a nail place called 'The Nail Bar'. The colors I chose for my manicure were hot pink and black, and for my pedicures I chose dark purple. After I got my toes painted, I thought they had already dried, so I started walking around carelessly and now my toes don't look very pretty... but at least my fingers still look nice!!


After the manicures and pedicures, we started getting ready for trick or treating. Frances and I put on our mad scientist costumes and started putting on face paint. We made our eye brows slant upwards to mad us look evil and we put dark purplish circles around our eyes. 


Trick or treating was so much fun, but I guess it was a bit too crowded. People kept pushing past me to get candy... but I still really enjoyed it! I got loads of candy, but the candy all ran out within half an hour because there were so many people. But in half an hour we all got plenty of candy that would last for a real looonnnnggg time :D


Sadly, trick or treating had to come to an end, but the sleep over that followed was just as fun! After eating lots of candy and eating pizza for dinner, we put on make up and played and it was so much fun. We wanted to watch 'Wild Child' after, but Katy's mom told us that we had to go to bed :(

Sleepover with Sophia

Originally, Sophia and I were planning to go to Ocean Park yesterday (even though I've already gone twice very recently), but we couldn't go.

So instead we had a barbecue at the Country Park. I took Samantha with me, and at the Country Park today, there were loads of people who were having barbecues too, so Samantha was going crazy trying to look for food; it was really hard to control her. I can't imagine how Samantha can still be so hungry even when she's just eaten almost half a bag of dog food (it's a really big bag!). While we were eating, Samantha kept jumping up onto the table, trying to get our food, so we had to tie her to a tree. She was whining the whole time we ate, but I couldn't untie her from the tree otherwise she would eat our food!!

After the barbecue, Sophia and I went back home and we played basketball together. When we became really thirsty after a while of playing, we went back to my house.

We watched some really funny videos on YouTube, and Sophia invited me to stay at her house for a sleepover. So we started planning what we would do.

When it was time for my ballet class to start, Sophia came to watch. We didn't get to learn any new dances or didn't get to play any games even though it's soon Halloween; we had to just do our normal, boring exercises.

When ballet was over, we went over to Sophia's house for a quick dinner, because I had to go home soon for Sophia to have her piano lesson.

While Sophia had her piano lesson, I had to practice piano, too. After I was all packed and ready and everything, Sophia called and I went over to her house.

We watched the movie 'Ice Princess'. It was really fun to watch.

Now it is gonna be Allison's barbecue birthday party, and after that it will be Katy's birthday party, and then... HALLOWEEN!!!!

Happy Halloween :D

Halloween Costume

Since Halloween is nearly here, mommy and I went to a little market called Ladder Street. There were loads of costumes there, and this year Frances and I are both going to dress up as mad scientists! >:)


So in Ladder Street, I bought these things:


~A grey, wavy, Albert Einstein wig
~A white lab coat
~Harry Potter glasses


I can't wait 'till Halloween!!!


Before going to Ladder Street, mommy and I went to get foot massages. It hurt a little but it felt really nice :)
I also got a couple of t-shirts from a shop called 'Giordano'. They are 'Cheer You Up' t-shirts, a really popular type of t-shirt right now. It is just a normal t-shirt with a yellow smiley face on it with x's as the eyes. They're really cute XD


When I got back home, it was time for a tennis group lesson. 


Mommy wants me to play more tennis with more people, so now she's gonna call the boys in my class who play tennis to come over tomorrow to play tennis with me!! Ohhhhh, I really hope she'll forget about calling them!!!

Colony Day and... PIANO EXAM

This morning it was my piano exam!!! I am now sooooo happy that the exam is finally over and I have so many more things to look forward to now!! There's a paint-ball party this weekend, then it's the Charity Bazaar, then 3 days of camp, then Halloween and Katy's birthday party! Can't wait for all of them :)

Although I was really, really nervous last night before the exam, this morning, just before the exam, I wasn't nervous at all -- I was just calm.

After my piano exam, I went to school a few hours late. Then it was Colony Day! My costume for a blacksmith turned out great and my tools were cool as well! Parents walked around the classroom, asking questions like 'Why did you leave Europe to go to the New World?' or 'What are your trade relationships with your fellow colonists?' or 'Now that you have settled in the New World, what do you have to do in order to survive?'

When school was over, I came home for tap. We learnt a new dance to the song 'Steppin' Out With My Baby' by Fred Astaire. We did the dance with canes and hats.
