Decorating for Christmas!

This morning, daddy, mommy and I all went down to Wong Nai Chung for a group tennis lesson for me. Today it was really, really sunny and boiling hot, so after only half an hour I was extremely tired. The last hour was so tiring because it was noon time and thats when the sun is hottest... but I guess I still enjoyed it. 


After tennis, we went down to the Aberdeen and we ate noodles for lunch.


When we were done with lunch, we went up to a music store called 'Tom Lee'. Daddy bought me an acoustic guitar!!! He really wants me to learn the guitar :) 


After buying the guitar, daddy had to go back home to work. Mommy and I went to Wanchai and went to a stationary shop called Cosmos so I could buy a present for Secret Santa in school. I bought:


~a blue mechanical pencil
~a black mechanical pencil
~a green mechanical pencil
~ a red mechanical pencil
~ a plain, white eraser
~a blue, white and orange striped eraser
~a green camouflage pencil case


I hope the person likes it!!


When mommy and I were on our way back home, we passed by the lobby and a bunch of people in our tower were decorating the lobby for Christmas. I stayed and helped decorate. Soon, Rachel passed by and joined us as well. Then, Niki called me and asked if she could play. So then Rachel, Niki, me and lots of other people decorated the lobby. It was loads of fun! One person had loads and loads of decorations so now our lobby looks really cool and bright! There is a competition called 'Deck the Halls'. Each tower competes against each other, trying to decorate their tower the best... we'd better win 1st prize this year!!!

Since I am a Peer Helper at school, today I was on recess duty. I monitored lunchtime for the third graders and I also monitored the third grade recess. It was really cool! In the beginning, I wasn't so confident to go up to the people who were doing things they weren't meant to do and tell them off. But then I eventually tried it once and it wasn't so bad... I hope I can do it again soon!

Also, at the end of the day at school, we picked our Secret Santa's. We just drew a name from a box with our eyes closed, and we have to buy a present for the person we picked. I can't say who I got, but I got a boy, so I have no clue what to get him... HELP!

After school, Mr. Lovett told us he wants Alex, Johena and I to play at a meeting tomorrow morning. So after school, we practiced our trio song that we played at the concert last week. I hope the meeting tomorrow goes well!

This morning I had a group tennis lesson again at Wong Nai Chung. It was also really hot out, so I got really sweaty. At the same time, it was pretty windy, so it was quite hard to hit the balls properly.


After tennis, one of my friends from school called Isabelle invited me over to her house to play. So when I got back home from tennis, mommy took me down to where Isabelle lives. 


Right next to Isabelle's apartment, there is a big market and plaza with lots of shops. So we went and looked around in the shops. We bought cookies and candies and slushees, and I got this thing called iFoam. Its styrofoam mixed together with colored goo. It's really fun to play with :)


I'm really excited for school tomorrow! We're starting 'Secret Santa'... I wonder who I will get! Also, at our school, we have this things called 'Operation Santa Clause'. We dress up in christmas colors all week and donate $20 every time we dress up. Tomorrow we have to wear red, then on Friday we have to wear green, and then next Friday, on the last day of school, we have to wear red and green. I already have all my red clothes prepared for tomorrow!! I can't wait!!! We will also be starting some christmas crafts, so we'll be making christmas stuff!!! Yayyyyy :D
