I just came back from playing with Rachel at her house. We just finished eating dinner together. Earlier, we watched the movie 'Wild Child' starring Emma Roberts. Rachel doesn't have the DVD, so we just searched the movie on the internet and watched it there... it was kinda blurry bit it was still really fun to watch!!


Before going to Rachel's house for dinner, I had a tennis lesson in the morning. It was still really hot today, but it's getting cooler, which is good for tennis. But after tennis, I still had that big amount of sweat forming on the back of my neck... my tennis lesson was then followed by another violin lesson. 


When I came back from violin, I played with Niki. We walked around in the garden, then played with my basketball. We wanted to go to the basketball courts to shoot hoops, but other people were playing in the basketball courts and we didn't wanted to play with them because we aren't exactly very good at basketball, so we didn't really want to embarrass ourselves in front of other...
When we went back to Niki's house, Annabelle called. The three of us played together at Annabelle's house. We played a game called 'Sims 2' where we create characters and play around with them. It was fun playing with Niki and Annabelle, but I had to leave to go to Rachel's house.


My horrible sore throat has gone, but unfortunately, instead of my sore throat, I am now coughing all the time, and my nose is all stuffy. It feel like there is a big ball of dust at the bottom of my throat -- it doesn't hurt, I'm just constantly coughing, trying to get that 'dust' out. And I keep sneezing too........
Well hopefully I'll be much better by tomorrow because tomorrow I'm going to a paint-ball party!!

Okay... I really need school now!!!

Well, today was another one of those boring, nothing-to-do-at-all days. Well, at least it was like that during the morning, since everyone else was either at school, or they were busy with something else.

I woke up quite early in the morning, which wasn't quite a good thing because there was more time for me to wait until my friends got back from school. When I got up, I went to take Samantha out to the bathroom, because it was already 8:00 A.M. and Sammy usually goes at 6:30 A.M., so when I took her out, she was bursting to go...

Then I went straight back to my book, 'New Moon'. I really want to finish New Moon and go onto the 3rd book in the series, 'Eclipse'. Everyone says that Eclipse is the best book in the Twilight saga. So after about 5 hours of reading this week, I'm nearly finished with New Moon!!

Once I started to get tired of reading, I pretty much just stared at a wall for about 15 minutes. There wasn't anything better that I could think of to do!! And while I was starting to get fascinated by the smoothness of the wall, I realized I still hadn't practiced piano. Well, that brightened myself up a little! I had something interesting to do!

But, piano didn't last long because I only had 3 songs to practice for my exam. But luckily, it was already past noon time, so in just a couple hours, I would be able to do something fun with a friend!

I've just realized that now I don't go on the computer that often anymore. The reason is probably because there is nowhere to go on the computer!! I'm not very interested in games anymore, and I don't know what to watch on YouTube, and I barely know any fun, interesting websites to go on anymore! But I guess that's a good thing, that I don't spend so much time on the computer anymore. But without anything to do on the computer, I can't think of anything better to do! Oh dear, I really think I need school again :(

Finally, 4:00 came. The time when everyone would be back from school. I rushed to the phone and dialed Frances and Katy's number. They answered and luckily they could play!! First Katy came over and we played computer of course... Katy knows lots of things to do on the computer, which is probably why she spends loads of time on the computer (that was a compliment, Katy!)!! Then Frances came over and we took photos on PhotoBooth, since we didn't know what websites to go on...

Then Frances and I went to our tap lesson together. I thought Ms. Tiffany would be teaching tap since Ms. Claire had a baby to take care of, but luckily... Ms. Claire taught tap instead!! I really missed her and I was soooo, extremely happy to see her again! She told me she would be teaching both tap and ballet. I waited for her to say that she would teach disco as well, but turns out, Ms. Tiffany will still teach disco; for the first term at least. I really do hope Ms. Claire will start teaching disco again for the rest of the year starting from next term!!

I miss the buzz of voices all around the room. I miss the teacher talking. I miss the pencils scratching against paper. I miss the occasional crumple of paper as someone erases their writing. I miss school! I really wish school could start again... I have nothing to do without fun, exciting school, even if I have virtual homework to do on the computer.

So, like I said, I didn't do much today, since I didn't have school. But I woke up at around 10:45 A.M. today, so waking up later took some boredom away from my day.

After having brunch, I got an email from school saying that I would have virtual homework. So although I didn't really want to do homework, I went onto the computer anyway. I didn't have anything else to do right?

After some math problem solving, some current events and some writing, I practiced my 3 piano exam pieces. Although the exam is still a month away, I'm already really nervous about it!! I even have to sing!!

When I finished piano, I continued reading my book, 'New Moon', the 2nd book of the 'Twilight' saga.

Before I knew it, 2 hours had already passed! I rushed to the phone, eager to find someone to play with. Niki was the only one who was free to play because she is also in my school, so she doesn't have school, either, and all my other friends had school. Although Sophia is in my school as well, she couldn't play because she had gone out.

I had to leave Niki's house soon because I had to come home earlier to take Samantha out for a short walk. I couldn't take Samantha out later because I had tennis from 6:00 - 7:00.

When I was walking Samantha, I passed by loads of dogs, but surprisingly, Samantha didn't pull at all to play with the dogs. Before, Samantha would always pull and jump whenever she saw a dog. Well, I guess it's a good thing that Sammy doesn't pull when she sees dogs anymore... it's now easier to control her!!

After walking Samantha for a little bit, I immediately had to rush to go to my tennis group lesson. I'm glad that my tennis lesson is at night, because during the summertime, it really is too hot to play tennis during the day!!!

It was really sunny today, so in the morning, I went swimming with Frances and Katy. When I went to the pool, Michelle and Rachel were there as well, so the 5 of us played together for a long time until we had to go home for lunch. It was really fun!!

After lunch, I had to continue finishing my Chinese homework... and now I still haven't finished it, but luckily I still have one more day to finish it until the due date.

When I finished most of my homework, I practiced my piano for quite a while, since I had to prepare for my piano exam that will be coming up in October.

After a long hour of piano, I practiced my clarinet for a bit, but my cheeks soon got tired from blowing for a long time.

And then, just when I thought I could call a friend to play with, I remembered I had to practice my violin. But there wasn't much for me to play, so I soon finished practicing violin.

Finally, I could call a friend to play. I called Rachel, and she came over to my house to play. Then Frances and Katy came over as well, and the 4 of us played together.... mostly on the computer of course!! :P . But Rachel couldn't stay for long, so after about 45 minutes or so, she had to leave. But Frances and Katy stayed, and on YouTube, we watched a movie that we really wanted to watch called The Wizards of Waverly Place movie... we still haven't gotten to finish it yet, because Frances and Katy had to leave as well for dinner, but we're nearly finished watching it, and it's really good and exciting! I'm probably not going to finish it tonight because it's already really late right now -- maybe tomorrow...

Well, gotta go get ready for tomorrow's school!

Waiting in JFK, New York

I've just gotten off the plane from Boston and now I'm at the airport, JFK, in New York. Unfortunately, there is no direct flight from Boston to Hong Kong, so we have to fly to New York first, then we take a plane from New York to go back to Hong Kong.

We're all waiting in the lounge, which is really nice because there are rows and rows of computers so I can play on them!! :) There's also cookies, sandwiches, and lots of other food. And one floor underneath the lounge is a small mall with lots of stores!! I'm probably gonna go there later.

I really can't wait to see my friends again and to go back to school, and... my birthday is coming up! I did a pool party last year because the weather was just right... very, very sunny. This year I don't want to do another pool party, even though this summer in Hong Kong seems to have really nice weather. Any ideas about what I should do for this year's party??

Urgh, I keep thinking I've forgotten to pack something! I really hope I didn't forget anything!!!

Oh! Someone just announced that my flight is started to board now... bye for now!

Hong Kong, HERE I COME!!! ;P
