ROLLER BLADING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I went ROLLER BLADING today!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :P

It was our youth outing event thingy.... I decided to go.... Swen and Lily also went... there were 14 of us youths altogether...oh except one was one of our ex-youth leader.. :)

Anyway the place we went is called The Wheels which is at Subang Avenue top floor... :)

It's Rm 25 per entry for non members, but that means it's for the whole day...after you pay the 25 bucks you can go in and out for that whole day.. :) Means you already paid for one whole day.. :)

And after paying for the first time, you immediately are a member...free membership...so since today was my first time, I still had to pay Rm 25, but the next time I go I only pay Rm 20!!!!!!! Save 5 bucks!!! ;)

So they only opened the place up at 11 am...we were there earlier but we couldn't go in so we had to hang about outside...

This skating place is like a DISCO AMBIENCE.... like it was seriously super duper dark in there, with all the coloful lights and stuff... but on the whole, the place is really sooooo dark!!!!!!! :( It wasn't a very nice atmosphere as it made me quite sleepy... hahaha.. :D

Anyway, so there were two types of skates we could choose.. ROLLER SKATES or INLINE SKATES. I went for inline skates because when I was younger I used to use those but that was really long ago... anyway I don't like roller skates.... :)

Roller skates has 4 wheels...2 on each side of the shoe... inline skates are 4 wheels in a straight row in the middle of the shoe.. :) So of course with roller skates you don't need to bother about balancing.... inline you have to... :) Which is pretty tricky... :D

I tried on size 6 at first, later I found it too loose and I couldn't balance properly, so I had to remove those and get a smaller size.... and let me tell you, those skates are REALLY REALLY HARD TO REMOVE AND PUT ON.... it's like, it takes awhile to figure out the concept of it.. :P

So I got on size 5 and they were so much better... :)

Then came the tough part. Since the last time I ever inline skated was like when I was still quite young, I've forgotten how to skate.... it was more of balancing and pushing your feet forward that was tough... at first I kept clinging on to the metal bars they have all around the rink, and used those to glide myself along... meaning, I wasn't skating with my feet, I was skating with my hands... :)

I tried and tried, finally after like 1 hour, I MANAGED TO SKATE WITHOUT HOLDING ON TO ANYTHING!!!!!! Later it got easier and easier...although you didn't find me racing about like some of the guys... :)

Luckily, I wasn't the only one having problems, if I was, that would have been like really embarrasing... :P

Anyway I'm happy that I managed to skate without holding on to anything....thats the main point... :)

We were there from 11am until like 2pm....about 3 hours. :)

Then we all walked to Subang Parade to have lunch at KFC. :D McDonald's was crowded so we decided not to eat there... :)

So, RESULTS OF ROLLER BLADING??????? I currently have a sore, bruised, blueblack left knee, an injured right hand first finger, and beginning-to-ache-muscles. :(

Oh, I ONLY DROPPED ONCE!!!!!! :) And that was because I tripped over Jane and Esther's skates... ;P That's how I got my bruised knee...

My hurting finger??? I think I bumped into something and pulled or twised a muscle in the finger... :( It really hurts a lot and it's my right hand!!!!! I'm a right-hander unfortunately... :( Hope it heals soon... :( I feel so handicapped... hahaha... :P

And my muscles??? Well they are already aching, and tomorrow's gonna be worse...

Ah well, I had a fun time despite all these little problems.. :)

Christmas Weekend!!!!!!!! :)

Christmas Eve~

Considering not having enough sleep on Friday night, I woke up early on Saturday. Because we had to start baking muffins for Christmas Kopitiam at Church the following day. And we were baking petit muffins so that takes longer...

My mum and I really slaved over those vanilla muffins for like 3 hours!!!!!!!! And there were some failures which got on our nerves....sigh....the whole point is, when you are in a hurry, everything will go wrong... :(

Anyway we managed to finish making more than enough... :) It was a tiring job but we got it done.. :)

After that my family had to practice one more time for Sunday Worship... and that took quite awhile too.... then it was gym time, and quickly rush back to bathe and get ready for the Christmas Eve Celebration at Subang Church.. :)

It was fun, seeing all my friends again... there was a Hymn Musical too.. :)

Tiring Eve but also awesome in a way.. :)

Christmas Day~

IT'S CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :) WHEEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Had to wake up like super early because we had to go to church early to set up and have a last round or practice... I was really tired because the previous night I only slept like 1 something in the morning, and I woke up at 7:45 am which makes it less than 8 hours of sleep... Really tired.. :(

Christmas service was good... :) FIRST TIME EVER PUCHONG CHURCH WAS PACKED UNTIL NOT ENOUGH CHAIRS!!!!!!!!!!!! Phewww!!!!!!! The church sure was crowded and stuffy.. :P

Lily and Swen came!!!!!!!!!!!! :) AWESOMEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!!! :)


Had a fun time hanging out with them, laughing over silly things, etc... :)

The Weekend Before...

Here's what happened last weekend...sorry I was too lazy to blog about it till now.. :)

Well as you all know, I attended my Youth Christmas Party at WEaVE's place.. :) It was AWESOME!!!! It was so nice seeing Lily, Michi, and Swen again!!!!!!! :)

We didn't do much at the party except hanging out.. :) But it was still fun anywayz... ;)

I had to leave the party early because I had to rush back home to change my clothes and grab my cello and stuff for our performance at IOI Boulevard!!!! :) It was quite a rush...hahaa but I manged to arrive at the Boulevard with 10 mins to spare... :)

The peformance at the coutyard was quite good...both Sarah and I could hear ourselves...thats the main thing...hahaha...besides the funny thing was, there was cool air coming down from the ceiling...that was nice because I was beginning to sweat.. ;)

After that we went to Pacific Coffee to peform...AHHHHH I TOTALLY LOVE THE SMELL IN THERE!!!!!!!!! It smelled sooooooo yummy!!!!!!! :)

And guess what I got a souvenior from Pacific Coffee...it was a Pacific Coffee 2012 Calendar and a cute little slide box(with a mirror inside) of mints inside a Pacific Coffee Bag!!!!!!! :) I was so surprised there was something for me!!!! :D

Sunday Morning, was sooooo tired, didn't have enough sleep, only had like 5 hours of sleep... :( And we had to stay back after church service till 2pm for our LAST PEFORMANCE at IOI Mall!!!!! :P

We had plenty of time to waste...hahahaha...went out for lunch with Sarah, JJJ, Sam, and Jie at Pelita.. :)

Talked there for quite awhile before we headed back to church and started to while away the time playing christian songs... :) JJJ on the piano and also vocals, Sue Ann vocals, Sarah on the violin, and Me on the cello.. :) It was fun.. :)

And then it was time to head to the mall...and when we arrived there, there was this really WEIRDO clown who gave us the creeps... he was like trying to be funny with us but at the same time we got annoyed and irritated with him...like he was so random...like serioulsy out of his mind...I think he's so IMMATURED!!!!! :P Both JJJ and I agreed we didn't like him and found him scary... :P

Anyway peformance at the mall was better than the 1st time...we could hear ourselves!!!!!! Wheeee!!!! :)

So that was the super busy weekend I had...and yea...another busy weekend ahead too!!!!!! :P

I Skipped Church!!!!!!

Woke up at 9 am today with a TERRIBLE SORE THROAT... and I decided to skip church as I didn't want to pass germs to other people and I didn't want to expose myself to more germs too...

Got up, bathed, ate my breakfast, read until 10:30 am and felt so sleepy I went back to sleep...

Didn't wake up until 3:30 pm!!!!!!!!!! :P Imagine, 5 WHOLE HOURS!!!!!!!!! And I slept through lunch time too!!!!!!!!! :P

Ahhhh, I was really tired, didn't have enough sleep the past few days.........

My throat hurts so badly I can't even drink water without wincing in pain!!!!!!!!! I can barely talk too, infact I hardly talked the whole day, because it's too painful... :(

And my nose is starting to run like a tap already..... and later it's gonna get blocked until I can hardly breathe....sigh......

Why do I have to fall sick now???????? What a wrong time!!!!!!!!!! :(
