After my violin tutor today, Timmy and Darren came over and we joined up together with Sydney. We played for about an hour of doubles all together, then splitting into singles. It was a lot of fun. Then Darren and Sydney had to leave, so Timmy and I just continued playing singles. After about two hours, we got really tired, so I introduced Timmy to Samantha. We played fetch with her and ran around with her... it was fun. 


When Timmy had to go, it was soon already dinnertime. Frances and Katy invited me over for dinner, and mommy and daddy went out for dinner at a friend's house. At Frances and Katy's house, we played on the computer and ate desserts.


I just got back home but mommy and daddy are still out, so I'm just gonna go and watch some TV.... bye!!

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!!

Today I had my second violin lesson with my new violin tutor. Mommy had bought new violin books for my tutor and I to work on. So he taught me new songs to learn.

I had planned to eat at McDonald's for lunch after violin, but I wasn't very hungry after violin class, so we just took a taxi back home.

When I finished a small lunch at home, I called Rachel to see if she was free to play. I went down to her house and we played on her new Macintosh laptop.

After playing a bit with Rachel, I went swimming with Frances and Katy since today was really sunny and beautiful (about 92 degrees). First we started out to just talk, and then we played a game of tag and other games as well. When we were in the middle of a game, Frances spotted something on the floor of the pool. We all went to investigate in it, and decided that it was definitely doo-doo! We ran to tell the lifeguard, and as soon as the lifeguard starting using a long net to scoop the poo out, everyone in the pool immediately got out and left. But we stayed (not inside the pool of course) to watch the lifeguard, giggling and laughing. Then I soon had to go home to take a shower because it was nearly dinner time.

After a warm shower, Frances and Katy called, inviting me over to their house for dinner. I was allowed to go since mommy and daddy were going out for dinner. Frances and Katy's parents were going out as well.

We played lots of things; it was almost like a sleep over!! So sad we couldn't actually have a sleep over :( . But luckily I will be having a sleep over with Frances and Katy on September 18th, because it will be a sleep over birthday party for Frances!! Also, Katy and Frances have loads of clothes that are much too small for them, but since they are taller than I am, their small clothes could fit me! So Katy and Frances let me have all of their clothes that they couldn't wear anymore. They had lots of clothes that were too small for them and they are really nice clothes!! I'm so happy to have them :D Thanks so much, Frances and Katy!

When mommy and daddy got back home from dinner, they called me and unfortunately I had to go home since it was already really late :(

But I'm probably going to be playing with Frances and Katy again tomorrow... hopefully!

Violin Tutor

My old violin tutor Elodie was really great, but unfortunately, she had to move to Spain, so I couldn't take any more lessons with her :( . But mommy found another violin tutor for me, and I just had a lesson with him today. He's really nice! He wasn't strict at all, which I am very glad about.

After my violin class, mommy and I tried to catch a taxi into Wanchai (small town with little shops). But, there were literally no taxis at all to hail!! Lots and lots of taxis passed by, but all of them were occupied. We walked for about 45 minutes, still searching for taxis. In the end, we still didn't find a taxi. We just rode a tram to Wanchai instead.

It was really hot, so I was very glad to enter the bookstore, Cosmos, because Cosmos is very freezing cold inside! :D . But, I couldn't read any books in Cosmos because all the books were wrapped in plastic! That's the bad thing about bookstores in Hong Kong. Very little books are unwrapped so you can read them. I prefer the bookstores in America, because pretty much all the books aren't wrapped at all!

After Cosmos, I planned to go swimming, but I was just too tired. So I just stayed at home and watched a movie and finished some of my Chinese homework... I still have some homework that I need to finish tomorrow >:-(
