Career Week Show!

Sorry I have not been updating everyone. School and work has just been keeping me busy. I cannot write too long of an update because I need to start doing my school work. So how is everyone doing? I know that Spring is already here, is everyone happy and excited? I know I am! How is life, school, work, family, love, etc?

On Monday, I have a rehearsal for our Career show on Tuesday. The show will consists of models from our club dressing for an interview. There are two categories: the first is what to wear for an interview, and the second one is what not to wear for an interview. I am one of the models wearing what not to wear for an interview for a retail business. Isn't that funny? Many of the people that know me knows that I am a good girl, so they would not expect me to do anything like what I am portraying for this show. We have another show coming up on April 17th, that will be more of a real Runway show. The designers will be showing off their creation to the school. I do not think I will be in it, since I will be in the one this Tuesday, which makes me sad, but hey, I cannot get everything I want right? I will still not give up! Oh, I forgot to mention, an agent from the R.E.M Studio came to our school on Friday to talk with the model club! It was awesome! She said that they are always looking for talent and she even offers private acting lessons. I got her contact information, but I am unsure if I should contact her since I do not have the money to even pay for these lessons. What do ya'll think? Please give me some advice!

Furthermore, my friend David recently showed me where the piano room is in our school! Since then, I have been going there almost everyday to practice the piano, in hopes of learning how to play. He taught me how to play the song he created and I gotten quite good at playing that song. Now I am wanting to learn how to play Kiss Goodbye by Wang Leehom. I even printed out the music. However, I do not know if I should move onto to something so difficult since I just recently began to play the piano. I know most of the pianist would say that song is not hard, but to me it looks fun and confusing. I know how to read music since I used to be in choir for about 6 years, and I somewhat know the keys of the piano though. I know if I work hard and believe in myself, I would be able to accomplish my dreams and goals. Instead of dreaming aloud, I am taking one step at a time towards my dream. Everyone should work hard to achieve their passion, ok!? We will work hard together. Even if at first we do not succeed, try, try again! Well that is it, bye!

Have a great week everyone! Wish me luck with the show and playing piano. I wish everyone good luck in striving for their goals and finding their passion.

St. Patrick's Week!!!

HAPPY ST. PATRICK'S DAY!!!! I hope everyone is wearing green today, since it is St. Patricks Day. You know what? Honestly, I forgot it was St. Patrick's Day today, so I didn't wear green. However, I do go to work tonight, so I will wear it then. How is the game of life for everybody?

My week will be hectic since I work Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday night, maybe even Saturday morning. I have never worked so much during the week before, so it would be my first time. In addition to that, I have a major panel presentation for English to prepare for. I have my Lab Exam 2 on Wednesday, 3/19/08 and my 2nd history exam next week. AH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How will I learn to manage my time? Who knows? I will do my best anyhow.

Last Saturday on 3/15/08, I volunteered at the KERA tv studio to pick up phones for their pledge drive. Cool, huh? I went with a club at school and we were told that it is a pre-recording that will be put on air later. Sadly to say, we found out at the end of our shift that it was actually live and it is awesome that I made it on tv! Unfortunately, I did not tell my mother to record it. Everytime I watch these pledge drives on tv, the people seem so busy answering phones. However, it was not busy at all since my phone line was #15, I did not get a single call. I basically sat there for 5 hours doing nothing, which was still fine with me. It was a great experience because I was imagining how actors and actresses actually act in a room enclosed with four walls with bright lights and cameras. I do not know how they do it, but I have to say I am impressed. Being in the studio, I tried to imagine myself acting, but I couldn't see myself doing it. I think it is because I have no experience in acting, but I sure do want to try. If anyone of ya'll out there know of any upcoming auditions, please comment me to notify me about it. I may make a fool of myself, but I am willing to do my best to try to make myself known. My dream is to become a celebrity and my friend told me this weekend that I am the kind of person that dreams, but does not take action. That is the truth, so I have decided to do something about it. Take Action!!!!

Well I have to go, so I will update everyone on my life later. Wish me luck on working and on my exams.

Advice: No matter how impossible your dream may seem, do not give it up until you have taken action. How will you know what will happen in the future if you do not try to make something of your life. Make a plan and follow that plan!!! Do not give up before you take flight! Do your best!!!

SPRING BREAK!!!

Hey everybody!!! How is everybody? Though I know my life is not as interesting as a celebrities life, I just wanted to write/type down what happens to me weekly. Thank you to those who reads this.

I am so happy because this week is spring break! My sisters do not start their spring break until next week. Sadly, I have a major project I need to work on for English throughout this week. (darn!!!) My English professor wants us to work on our literary analysis paper and a presentation. I will do my best! Oh, I had my midterms last week and man were they tedious to study for. I am not sure how I did on my trigonometry, but as for my biology, I passed with a high B!!! Yay!!!

Also, I finally get the chance to watch a drama that I have been waiting for almost a year. The drama is called The Most Beautiful 7th Day starring Kevin Cheung, Nikki Chow, Bosco Wong, and Natalie Tong. Though I only watched six episodes, it is still awesome!!! I think Kevin and Nikki is so cute together!!! You know those celebrities that are always costarring in a few movies are so cute together such as Mike He and Rainie Yang. Being a celebrity seems so great and grand, but I bet there is a lot of work involved! Lucky to the celebrities, but you know not everyone is so fortunate with talents and good looks.

In addition, I already told some of my friends, but I am too happy to keep it in. My two younger sisters, my grandfather and myself are all going back to China for a month! YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!! Happy!!! I can't wait to go back to see my relatives that I have not visited in 8 years, plus I hope I get to attend a Fahrenheit activity. I actually really hope to get Arron Yan's autograph! That would be memorable!

Well, that's it! Thanks for reading and comment if anybody has anything to say! Bye!

****Happy Spring Break to all!!!****

Advice: When ya'll students like me go on spring break, try not to play to wild and let things get out of hand! I mean clubbing and partying sounds fun, but it is better safe than sorry! Fun has its limitations as well.

Model of the Week!



This week was pretty cool! How about for everyone else? Do ya'll have any stories ya'll want to share? If so, what are ya'll waiting for? Share your life to the world and let yourself be heard! Do not be an individual that blends in the with the crowd, stand out!

How has the weather been for everyone? Over here has been fabulous. However, it has been weird like it would be cold one day and then the next, it would be warmwith the sun brightly shining. Still, I have to admit I like the randomness of our weather; my favorite is when the days are sunny and warm, which allows me to spend time outdoors. When it is warm, I feel as though I could go outside to appreciate what nature has to offer and take the time to observe my surroundings. As a college student, I feel as though life is such a rush with all the exams and assignments, plus I have two jobs, so that makes my life move faster. I think I overloaded myself a little, but that is good because it will teach me how to manage my time.

Oh, to explain the title of this blog entry, I was chosen as a model of the week for the Fashion Runway Club of our school. Remember, a few entries ago, I put that I had a photoshoot that had a Casino theme? Well, it turns out, the officiers of the club reviewed those pictures and choice four models of the week based on the poses and angle of the pictures. The president of the club told me that I was chosen as one of the model of the week because my picture looked really cool with how my pose was perfect with the angle of the picture. She has not shown me the picture yet, but I am very excited to see it. She even told me that they are going to print a copy of it to put up on our club bulletin to show the school. Isn't that cool? Initially, I was in shock when I first found out, but afterwards, I was so happy because I can't believe it was me. However, for that photoshoot, I remembered I gave it my all and did my best, so what I am trying to stress is that, always do your best because it will pay off. In addition, this week I also had a photoshoot! The theme for it was balloons, so I had to dress cutely and pose with balloons. Sadly to say, I did not do that good this last photoshoot because we were rushed and as opposed to having two photographers, we only had one, so we were behind with our time. (oh well) Furthermore, I found out which designer chose me as their model. It turns out that I would be modeling for a designer named Victor! Yay!!! I know I will need to work very hard to do my best for the modeling business. To tell the truth, I still have a very hard time walking with heels and instead of looking natural when I walk, I look as though I am stiff. Does anyone have any suggestions?

This coming week is midterms for me, so wish me good luck everyone. On top of trying to studying for these exams, I need to manage to go work, so I definitely need to learn how to manage my time effectively! It will be a challenge, but I am willing to take it on! Take care everyone and have a great week!

Advice to teens: When you overload yourself with more than you can handle. Do your best to adjust to the responsibility you put yourself under. However, if you cannot , find help from someone you trust like a friend, or family member. I know you want to hold your pride and show everyone that you can handle things on your own, but sometimes you have to let that pride go to make life easier. Trust me, it would not hurt to ask someone for help. Plus, if it is a someone you trust, they will not look down on your for that either, so do not think that will hurt your pride.
