Ha see the tittle blog .... Gosh . Really , I was never the brave one at home or in school . And I hate to stand in front of a crowd to speak or to do anything that has to do with STANDING in front of a crowd .
Where did I get this from ? Don't know and won't tell either !!!!! I guess when you feel timid , people won't singlt you out . That was what I thought . Even in school it was just as it is . I would put my head down in class so teachers would not sort of pick me to do anything . It was with me for awhile this ........ I can't find the right word for it .
UNTIL.......................
Until I was chosen to be the emcee for the sports day and that wasn't enough I am now once again chosen to be the emcee again for this year's concert ... okay , okay here I go again ... but then again if I did not take that stand , the first step to do it I never would have done it right ?
And then that one fine day my principal came to see me and this was what she said ;
P : I need to tell you something .
A: What ?
P: There is some gllitch .... and we do not have an emcee for our concert day .
A: Why , what happened to the teacher that was selected to do it ?
P: Ahhhh ... hmmm .. welll .....
A: Okay no need to crack your head over it , I will emcee for us .
P: Can ah .....?
A: Sure why not .. I mean .... oh , I need someone to be with my kids .
P: Done , I will do it for you ...
Pay close attention to the statement " I WILL EMCEE FOR US '. I did not think , I just blurt it out , so no regrets and I can't back out ... now I have to be the emcee for two Saturdays and guess what ? I have already prepared on paper what to say ....
P/s At this point I am okay wait till ................... I'll be FINE !!!

Well it's good news . My dad won eight movie passes from The Power Of 9 competition , held by The Star .
Not too long ago , a certain someone said that he had enough with competitions and it did nothing good for him .. he refused to get involed in the competition .So we girls thought this year might just be the lucky year for us , so we decided to give it a go .
This certain someone of ours did nothing to help except to post them of course .. hehe .... still unsure of himself we let him be .
Oh but no . ! He dicided to get on the horse's saddle once again . He took charge . He spend all the weekdays cutting , glueing , trimming you name it he did it ... and today .... he actually won !!! Hmm what's next we asked him ?
'THE CAR ' " I can almost see it now ." he said. Okay dad we wish you all the luck ... big or small you are still wonderful to have around .... :)

How it went so far.....
Well today we have some minor changes however , and here it comes ( drum roll please ) it went very nicely and smoothly .. I was so happy . There I was thinking that they can't follow what I wanted and boy was wrong .
But after changing a few steps here and there my dance looked better .. tonight I shall sleep with a huge smile across my pretty face .. Sigh !!!!!
As I promised my class that there will be rewards if ... only if they performed well for me . I promised them some sweets and guess what , the sweets are still in class ,unopened . HMmmm perhaps tomorrow I shall give them what I owe .

Audition 101
Okay for starters , I gotta tell you , I was pretty nervous . Yeah , I have done this like a zillion times , over and over again .
TRUST , that's the word . You gotta trust the children . They know what they are doing and yes I flip up and they go "Teacher , wrong la .. not like that .. you did like this first ". Okay , but I do not feel shy or small when my students correct me infront of other children or teachers .
I mean c'mon let's face it ..when they correct you , it means that they are paying attention to what you do and that is just simply great .
So how did the audition go ? Wonderful , with only minor corrections . I can live with that .
Hmmm ... now that the audition is done , tomorrow's big task is to correct it ...

Macam - Macam Aznil and mY DAD !!
My dad does not speak malay quite well and he normally would use Bahasa Pasar but he gets by . At times he would tell me to help him out , if he does not understand .
He proudly tells us that his Bahasa Malaysia has improved over the years . Mum and me would just go yeah right ! We try not sound so big shot about our bahasa too .
THere is one thing that my dad really likes to watch and that is Macam - Macam Aznil !! FOr a man who speaks Bahasa Pasar , he really enjoys the show . The moment it's on , he starts to laugh ... . Okay ,I got to hand it to Aznil . I mean his show really brings people together and I must congratulate him because his show seems to get through to my dad .
Aznil you rock my dad's world ...

Broken Bridges
Today, I saw a movie tittled Broken Bridges . It's about a man who left his girlfriend behind and went away . Years later , he comes back and he finds out that he has a daughter .
What got to me was they way he tried to patch up not only his relationship with his girlfriend but also his daughter that he never knew he had.
Why am I talking abut this so suddenly ? Well , it's because in our lives , I am sure we had a fair share of broken bridges and how we tried to mend them along the way . It could have been with a brother or even a family memeber .
My mum once said to me that when we try to mend a broken bridge with a certain someone , start slow , force it and it never will be strong . I believed her . She used to tell me do it naturally . Then the bridge will be stronger that ever .
As the movie ended , I saw the father and daughter performed on stage and from that point onwards , she knew that the bridge between her and her dad was mended and she knew that she could count on him .
Like some of us too , as we mend bridges , we become closer and when we become closer , there is only one thing to do that is to have some soul food .
