happy easterr ;D

hello all (: i think this might be a long blog. recap from monday? okay.

so monday we only had 2 periods (heheheh) maths and textiles. i got my maths result back.. but we won't talk about that :) 2nd was textiles so i worked on my second panel of my skirt. AND AFTER THAT AROUND 15 YEAR 9-12 STUDENTS HEADED OFF TO THE OPERA HOUSE TO WATCH ENCORE 2009 WOO. went we arrived at circular quay all students separated for around 10 minutes to buy food. seeing as berni and i had eaten our lunch on the bus/walking to circular quay, we decided to buy gelatissimo ice-cream hah. white chocolate flavour ahh, the best! 8)

hmm yup so after eating all of us headed to the opera house. we met sepy there 8) i didn't recognise many schools that attended o.o i think alot of private schools were there.. s: -FAST FORWARD..- overall the performances were awesome, really inspiring BUT encore 2008 was better than this years lot. the selection process sounds stupid, i reckon alison should've performed! she's just as good as those guys and her piece was fun ehehe 8)

berni's pro photography skills! i was too scared to take photos and videos during the performances ahaha =_=

tuesday i had my jap exam. i think i did.. okay? and as usual, we had our 5 hour long music lesson! berni discovered that we eat JADE NOODLES HAH. 8)

wednesday i did my make-up english assessment. i think i might've screwed up, i didn't fully follow the question ahh.. o_o

thursday, last day of school! 3 hours of textiles, finished my sublimation ;D and english was fun, the most laid-back english class ever since being in senior english classes hahah. jeffery spammed easter eggs to all of us kids yay!

good friday! cecilia planned an outing in the city. firstup met with berni and we found cherry around the corner of QVB. we headed to wynyard so we could have max brenner. not long after that we met karen, i think that's henry's girlfriend ye? ahh she saw my L's license when i took out my wallet. when she saw my birthday she was like OOOH YOU'RE OLDER THAN ME. argh she's born in 1993 and shes already in uni, so smart ehhh! that made me feel so small and.. old haha. after karen came, camie and cecilia arrived. the last to turn up was lisa 8)

we headed to some karaoke place around town hall..? ahh K for over 3 hours! my head was pounding afterwards hahah XD so yes, after lots of singing and being silly we headed to the chinatown night markets and i got takoyaki yayers ;D -FAST FORWARD AGAIN- even though my head was so sore after K ,overall it was a really good day. it was good catching up with cecilia, i had a good chat with her on the train ride home ehehe.


yesterday i started work experience at valerie tolosa!

we picked up jaclyn at 8 and we headed off for beecroft station -FAST FORWARD- arrived at paddington at 9.40 so jackie and i bought max brenner from across the road! then we still had time to spare so we walked around the front of the markets for 5 minutes and then we headed for val's store.

the store was still closed up so we thought valerie would come soon. the thing was we didn't know valerie lives above her store so we sat outside staring at other stores along william street looking out for some woman that looked like valerie. we sat there for 20 minutes until 10.15 and then we realised that the lights in the store were now on D: valerie laughed when we told her we were outside that whole time and she explained how she just lived on top ahh x)

the first thing she got us to do was steam a wedding dress that she had made for this girl that was coming in O: i was surprised that she'd straightaway trust us in touching up a wedding dress she designed! anyway i steamed clothes for 3 hours after that and jackie went out front to help the girl with fitting her wedding dress. after that val had to go out and grab a few things so we had to take care of the store O_O AND THE PHONE RANG! argh we freaked when we heard it , val hadn't told us what to do if the phone rang so i picked up.. 'valerie tolosa, this is jade speaking.. ^^' and then i heard a laugh and 'hi jade' ahh! it was berni. jackie and i breathed a sigh of relief when it was only berni calling. if it was some other customer i'm sure we would have screwed up LOL. ahh okay guys, i have to go soon so i'll just upload photos ;D

valerie's new season collection! jackie and i had to do checks on each piece. some of the beading was off centre so we had to take off pieces and reinforce them back on.

ahahah, i was bored ^^; but yes, cute cat x) i think it's name is shaye? i'm not 100% sure though.

in store.. :)

lunch!

val made us pumpkin chilli fried rice for lunch! although i thought it was more like a pumpkin risotto haha (:

the good stuff.

we're working really hard.. LOL

oxford st, waiting for the bus!

val said we could try on dresses xD we finished up at 6 but we left at 7 haha. i really like this dress, i'm considering buying it AHH :3

after that we went to jaclyn's aunties house.. man her auntie is soo funny. shes like a crazier version of my mum heheh. i got home at 10.30 last night? i just jumped into the shower and went straight to bed ahh~

so this morning. i woke up and i felt something heavier on top of me. i moved a bit and heard something drop to the floor. it was an easster egg x) ahh my mum woke up early to put easter eggs all over my bed. she still treats me like i'm five some times. i like it lol (:

mm all my family left home to go pick up my godmother from singapore. she's staying with us for 2 or 3 days. they decided to take her down to terrigal and i couldn't fit in the car cos she's come down to sydney with a frnd and my mum thought it was best for me to stay home. i think it was a good idea too. i was still pretty tired from yesterday and i had work and cleaning to do.

oh yes, did any of you guys get your high resolves post cards back? i received it yesterday! i was so surprised ahahah. november 2009, last time i'd ever work with high resolves. i decided to write myself a proper note to myself this time. i usually write nonsense or get other people to sign and send it off to me in 6 months time.. but this time i read my post card. it made me think about some things. a lot of things. i found it quite inspiring and amusing. i'm definitely going to keep this postcard. from me.. ahah how sad (:

but anyway the main message that we learned that day was 'be the change you want to be in the world.' hmm.. yeah, that made me think differently. even though it may be boring, tiring and extremely annoying at times to do tasks, in the end it all pays off. and even though you're just one small person in this massive world, you can still make a difference. i'm gna put that up on my study board so i can look at it everytime i do work. it makes me happy.. sort of haha.

anyway everyone will be home soon so i better get dressed, ready to go out for dinner!

see you all laterrr and happy easter everyone!
