We celebrated teachers' day yesterday! It was fun fun fun! Except for the part where I was really tired, sleepy and lethargic from waiting. I only had Nescafe for breakfast and I totally skipped break in school because I was busy finding a place to put my stuff. ;_; Poor luck. I ended up feeling hungry and fant-ish for the rest of the day.
I wore a silk kimono which Mummy (yes, I do call my mum Mummy XD) had shorten for me especially for this day. I danced with Ashley and my sis. We (me and my sis) were in all our performances together since kindergarten days. In case you're wondering why I always mention my sis, its because we are twins. XD I shall call her D from now on instead of my sis this and my sis that.
At first I was not so confident about this dance because it had been 3 years since I had last danced publicly in school. When I was in Form 2, it was on Teachers' Day too. It was awkward back then; the Headmistress was having a black face and the entire school body was quiet. No one clapped.
But this time was different. At least most clapped! XD And this was the first time I was actually not feeling nervous after the dance. Well, I was nervous at first, but then when I got into the starting pose, my nervousness disappeared. And then I partied and enjoyed myself on stage! \(^.^)/ I promised myself that this will be the first time I will not go jelly-legs on stage and when I find myself having fun on stage, it was so damn exciting.
And its a better experience because my cousins were there! 3 of them. Joen (Form 1) was the most supportive, I must say. She stuck by us all this while when we practice, when we bought the costume and finally when we danced. She was beside the stage when we danced. LOL I saw her when I was just about to go onto the stage.
Its like I feel eyes on me because I know my cousins are looking. I'm about to show them what their cousin sister can do! XD But another of my cousin whom is also in Form 1 was a bit creepy all throughout the procedure. She kept sticking to us in this way where she clings onto us and have her friends follow her around. And when people are congratulation us, she walked by and ignored us. Its like she wanna stick with us in the first place because we are known to a lot of people and when people are actually approaching us, she does not feel satisfied. :/ In simple words, she was becoming a spotlight-seeking girl.
She was never like this before; she mixed with the wrong kids when she entered secondary school. :/ I just hope that she'll find the right friends instead of sticking to people that wants you just because you are cute. Well, I admit that she is quite cute and petite, and she is using that to the full advantage. But honestly, I don't quite like that.
How did it even switch to that topic... @_@ Let's come back.
Overall, I felt overjoyed! People approached me, wished me luck and congratulated me and finally the applause at the end; it was definitely a time to remember. :) I was honestly surprised as I thought I looked really unapproachable. Someone's mother approached me and we chatted. That was random and awesome. XD
Pictures will be uploaded, though I can't say soon! XD
Senbonzakura, Kimono, Happy Teachers' Day!
