I know.. it's been SUCH a long time since I last blogged.

I've had such an awesome time these past 3 weeks. Not having to worry about waking up on time for rehearsals, or dragging myself out of bed, and then plonking back into bed after an exhausting day's worth of rehearsals. Plus, it feels good to have people pampering you day in, day out. Mama cooked oxtail stew for me during my performance season, and I brought some for Louis.. he enjoyed it SO MUCH. Since we're on the topic of food, the meals I've had have been sooo delicious:) Fried rice, eggplant tempura, french toast, american breakfast, pesto bread, and many more.. I'm not surprised if I've actually grown fatter. hahah. time to hit the gym.. (who am I kidding.. no I better do it now. Joel, I HAVE to go over to use the gym. HAVE TO. If not, you'll have a fat girlfriend. don't want that, right? HHAHA!)

Actually met alot of people here during the 3 weeks - mama, mummy, aunty jenny, uncle henry, aunty linda (Joel's aunty), aunty linda (my aunty), aunty wendy, and aunty yvonne who I've met before. So many people in melbourne. hahah..

Uncle Henry is SUCH a funny guy(now it's evident where Joel got his lameness from)
Aunty Yvonne: ....yea we laughed together, cried together, we were such good friends...
Aunty Jenny: what did you all cry about?
Uncle Henry: spilt milk
*EVERYONE bursts out laughing.. and I'm thinking: "OH MY SKY..HAHAHA"

..and he and aunty jenny look so cute together:) really glad that they're so loving even at their age... It's hard to find couples who still show their affection for each other after so many years of marriage, and it does warm the heart when I see such people.

Anyway, aunty jenny, aunty linda and aunty wendy cook really well:) We had a meal at their rented apartment one of the days, and oh my sky.. SO many dishes. hahahha. and they were all SO yummy:) I SO hope that I'll be able to cook like them next time man...

Ok now about my mummy and mama... I miss them SO MUCH. Really glad that they could come over to watch me perform my very first contemp performance:) It was a really interesting experience because it was so different from my concerts with SSCC. You know how in Singapore everyone tells you "You were the best one on stage" or "You looked so much stronger than the others" etc etc (and I think people only say that because they're your friends or family, and not because you REALLY are better than everyone else. They're obliged to say it..[an arrow at someone who actually thought she was the best on stage, well but she got shot down by Taylor and I. so oh well..]) Yea anyway, the first comments I heard from mummy and mama were.."well done!" and then mummy gave me corrections that I could make for my subsequent performances, and they told me who i could watch and who I could look more like. I think such constructive criticisms are SO much better and useful than statements like "you were the best!" because it lets me work on something, and become EVEN better, as opposed to letting my head grow bigger with something that I know isn't true.

Well apart from the performance, we spent heaps of time exploring Melbourne. Shopping didn't start till mama left though.. hahahha:P I actually spent more time exploring with mummy, because mama afew days after I ended my season. But, I still managed to spend precious time with her:) Mummy, on the other hand, has spent so much time here that I think she could pass of as Aussie (hahah kidding.. she still doesn't go "beda" instead of better, or "eight THirty" HAHA). BUT, I'm glad that she feels comfortable with everyone here.. As Joel would say, aunty jenny and mummy are BFFs. hahah! and I can tell that Davin and Joel feel very comfortable with her too.. AWESOME:) I've got a totally cool mum!
I'm just watching her sleep now, and am wondering if I'm going to miss her when she flies off tomorrow...

Catmandu says:

Catmandu says:

[Hannah d/o Daddy God] I say..nooooooooo.... says:

2) someone smacked me in the left side.
3) someone stepped on my fingers.

Catmandu says:
holy cow!
is that a showcase or a rugby match?

[Hannah d/o Daddy God] I say..nooooooooo.... says:
LOL

Catmandu says:
how come so all over the place one?

[Hannah d/o Daddy God] I say..nooooooooo.... says:
cos the piece is all about density and mass
LOL
it's more like a wrestling match

Catmandu says:
did you say density and mass?
or denseness and mess?
hahha


LOL NICE.

Today's opening night! how exciting! all those long rehearsals, sore muscles, sweat... all for these 5 performances. I'm so excited to do my very first contemporary performance:) All my life concerts mean ballet. But now, performance means a 30 minute contemporary piece choreographed by Dr Neil Adams. YAY! The more I think about it, the more pumped up I feel!

SO, mummy tied my hair today..she braided both sides of my head, then put it all in a low pony tail. Felt like a small kid again, sitting in a chair while mummy ties my hair.. felt so proud that even though I'm SO grown up and SO much bigger than I was last time, my mum is still willing to pamper me, willing to tie my hair.. It's such a small thing, yet it speaks so much to a person like me.
THANK YOU MUMMY:)

Mummy and mama's here:D
they've been here since 0845 on sunday... and been suffering in this blistering heat.

I HATE THE HEAT. SOMEONE SAVE ME PLEASE.

aunty jenny arrived today, and we all had a wonderful dinner at Lounge (we: aunty jenny, mummy, mama, joel, matt, davin and I). Boys had their own table while the 4 ladies sat together.. hahha.. I got to eat lamb cottage pie, fish and chips, and chicken parmigiana because we shared them:D hahaha.. were talking about memory loss, wedding planning, more about memory loss, how to cope with memory loss, was joining mummy in trying to distract aunty jenny from her conversation to see if she could multitask (eh mummy's idea HAHAHA). As you can see, a very mature conversation.. hahahah!!! but it was fun laaa:D it's a nice change to talk to older women.. they're so genuine( not saying that people my age aren't), so.. what do you call it.. so real. hahah. so unafraid of sounding silly:) it's different joking with people my age, and joking with mature women like them.. enjoyed it very very much:D thank you, you 3!

hahah.. so, after dinner we all walked to 445 Elizabeth Street (Lizard breath street [Louis Matthews, 2009]). Then, trammed up to CS Lygon to Joel's (Rui's) place.... caught matt by surprise. LOL.

thanks for the fun night everyone:)

tomorrow I start at 12pm. YAY! gonna wake up, cook lunch and dinner... then tram to Gasworks. one of the good things about having your mum up here is that she volunteers to massage your foot after a day of tedious dancing:D DOUBLE YAY:D

mama: how come you went for a run just now?
hannah: HUH?! what run??!!
mama: didn't you say you were going for a run?
hannah: OH. I went for a TECHNICAL run. IN THE THEATRE. LOLLLLL.

Dear God,

I really need you to show me what to do, and where to go from here. I'm so sick and fed up of thinking about this day in day out, during class, before I go to sleep... it's annoying me, and it's making me unhappy with where I am right now. I know that you've put me here for a purpose, and that nothing is coincidental, that you have a plan for me.. I just can't see it now, and I guess that's where faith comes in. Thing is, I've realised that i don't know how faith works. I pray, but i feel like i'm not getting an answer. I think about it, and it's not doing me any good. I 'leave it to you' and I feel like i'm throwing my life away. WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?

God, please help me be contented with what I have.

Love your daughter,
Hannah
