All at once.

Tired but happy.
Had a long day at rehearsal for Chingay.
It was like a scene right out from some "pageant's behind-the-scenes".There were make-up artistes and hairstylists when we got to the room. We had to take turns going to each one for foundation/eye-shadow/face-art etc... It'd been quite a sight!

Everyone started whipping out their cameras and snapped away.
Some whined about the head-gear; others about their costumes...
But in my opinion, nothing beats having that THING on your head for over 6 hours.

Make-up and hair were done before the contingent adjourned to PA from school in 2 buses. We had to stoop down a little so that we wouldn't subject ourselves to more torture brushing the head-gears against the buses' tops.
At PA, we were greeted with an array of colours and huge crowds of performers. In comparison, ours looked the most cheena and wayang-ish. Haha! But again, it is not everyday you get to slap on hues as dark as ours.

Once for an experience would be quite sufficient. At times, it gets so grueling having to do mini-sprints continuously I really feel like giving up/ trip and fall and excuse myself from there. Even the turnings and spinnings make me a little disoriented.

Nonetheless, I'm looking forward to both parades on the 30th and 31st! :)

Grandma's really enjoying talking to her little great-grandson over the phone. As I'm typing this, she's going "hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello. hello.", "boyboy. boyboy. boyboy. boyboy. boyboy. boyboy. boyboy." with a one-second pause between each "hello" and "boyboy". I gave up counting exactly how many times my cute grandma's repeated that! Haha.

It's a small country we're living in. Last night when we sent home in cabs in groups of 4, I happened to be in the one with 2 others who were from the same primary school! One's my age (who happens to be Celia's friend) and the other's a school junior. Haha! Oh, then there's one other in the cab too, with whom I share the same name, and she lives only 2 bus stops away from me! Somehow, we were all quite excited, despite the number of pins that were still sticking into our heads, and yakked for the whole journey. Maybe that's why the taxi driver got a irritated and sped because the monitor read "Warning: Please drive carefully!". It was alarming to see that. Unfortunately, or fortunately, I couldn't see the speedometer from where I was seated.

I'm really fascinated with photography. I wonder if an SLR camera makes it all different. Perhaps with my non-existent photography skills (seeing how my 'speciality' lies in taking shots with covered faces/ getting into flash-fights with Stephie), even the SLR camera won't help.
But pictures, like those seen in http://www.flickr.com/photos/chewmyheadoff make me go "wow" and I do hope that someday I will be able to take snapshots like that too!

Grandpa's getting weaker, I heard. Ya, HEARD. In other words, I haven't seen him since Christmas. I feel so unfilial. Hope he gets better...
