Entry for 16/4/12 to 22/4/12

Late entry again. Ha ha! Sorry Pn. Monica.:( Last week or rather last weekend was exceptionally busy for me. First of all, I went to FRIM last Saturday. This trip was organized by the school's Science and Maths society. To tell you the truth, that trip to FRIM was my first school trip and it was so much FUN...and tiring. We hiked for about 3 hours in the forest. Thankfully, we had a guide, Dino, to show us around FRIM. He told us amazing facts about FRIM and pointed out some of the plants there such as the Liana tree, 'Tembaga Suasa' or Crinum asiaticum, 'Jelutong' or Dyera costulata and Ficus or Ara tree. We also saw the giant fish or arapaima and apparently it comes when it hears clapping. While Dino was showing us all of this, I was busy taking pictures and writing(well, typing actually) notes as instructed by Pn. Lim, our teacher advisor because this trip is suppose to be educational and we have to hand in a report about it in two weeks time. The most exciting part of this trip was the canopy walk. I have this little fear of canopy walk because a long time ago, I went to Bukit Bendera with my cousins and when we were on the canopy walk, they jumped on it making it sway. Despite that, I went on it so I would spoil the trip for everyone. The person in charge told us to walk in groups of five. Our group was the last to go but I was the first one in the group to get on the canopy walk. At first it wasn't so bad, but when I reached the second part of it, the wind blew and it started to sway! I quickly walked to the next platform. Miraculously, I manage to brave through it all. We reached school about 1.50. I got off the bus and walked to the nearby park with my friends to do our project. We finished around 3.45 and I went back to the music school as I had choir practice. My legs started to hurt after that due to our long hike in FRIM. Ok, I finished talking about Saturday. Now, about yesterday. My legs were still hurting but it was not as bad as the day before. My mum and I got to the music school around 2.00 to make sandwiches before our last choir practice for our performance in Sunway Pyramid. We made sandwiches because there were small kids singing with us and we figured that they were going to get hungry sooner or later. Anyway, we had our practice then left for Sunway Pyramid around 6.30. My stepdad had to bring our electric piano there because the people organizing the event could not provide a piano.O.o We performed at 8. It was so nice and entertaining to see and hear the small kids sing. Their voices are so small and cute! Their parents took a lot of pictures and videos as this is the first time their kids performed with us. We had better microphones than the last performance so the audience could hear us sing. According to some, the sound was much better this time. I don't know, I couldn't really hear myself sing on stage. There were no speakers facing us. After the performance, we went to Aunty Anne's to eat pretzels! That's all for now.
