Cheer 2009 Day 1~ [edited]


"Cheer ony ma~~You went last year rite?"

Or so they say...But this time, I'm part of the reporting crew for The Star BRATs. When my people heard that they were like "w0ah~~"

I mean being a spectator is fun and all but hey, being part of the crew gives you acess to "restricted area" and that alone is half the fun =P


We even got to go SUPER close to the cheerleader's in action to take awsome close up pics...



The first thing we were assigned was to get to know the teams. Walking around, I was stopped by Blitzer's supporters sporting cute hair band thingy. I think they are one of the future BRATs~~


Snapping away I saw this cheerleader limping~ Then a friend said that she fell earlier that day. It was then I felt that cheerleaders are very dedicated. They put their hard work into it~Practicing for as many as 6-7 hours for some of the teams daily~expecially when Cheer competition is drawing near.


Met an old friend there~~My primary school mate. We haven't seen each other in like say 4 years...And I must say she has changed alot...or was it me who didn't change~??


Lunch break, BRATs crew went hunting for BRATs very own chearleader Michelle~!! We even did a mock interview: "We are of The Star BRATs..."


Jien was "bullying" Shirtlift's mascot...XD



Janice interviewing Muriel's (my school) captain and co-captain for 'Talking Heads'


Anyway, when it was almost turn for Muriel and sister team Dazzle to perform, the supporters sort of multiplied...Look here~~This is BEFORE..


And this is AFTER...


Amazing right~~Quite surprised that there were this many Muriel supporters...on a Saturday too. Hope that they will be here tomorrow.

Waiting for lunch break to be over...We apprehended this "innocent" Dynamitez mascot. And that leads to...Camwhoring in midst of work~!! Then again our shifts are over.


Its not everyday you get to see a guy do this~~


Falling asleep in the middle of a Cheer routine~?? Nah~~=P


More impressive lucky shots unedited. Some of the photos were ruined because of the bad lighting, slow shutter speed etc.






Jien an Jeremy announcing top 15. The atmosphere was...well everyone is waiting in anticipation~~


And when Muriel and Dazzle were not in the Top 15...They were quite disapointed.




Tada~!! As usual what is BRATs without more camwhoring~~~


I'm tired and I have school~~ My feet are dead from all the walking. Even when my shifts is 9am - 2pm It seems that the concept of shifts went down the drain the moment you step foot there.

Check out day 2 at cheer! Coming soon~

Sushi Party~~

*Memories* This is a not-so-recent event~~But I'll blog it anyway. Actually I meant to blog quite a while ago but somehow various things cropped up (see previous blog =D)

This Sushi party thing was just a random idea by us (me and Ka-tan) who wanted to:

a) eat sushi



b) make sushi



c) hang out at Jun's house



It wasn't even supposed to be a surprise birthday till we learned that Qi-chans birthday was 2 days prior to our party...

It was a fiasco. While buying ingredients a bottle of soya sauce I brought from home leaked and my whole bag and everything in it (camera, purse, handphone) stank of it. Ka-chan and Jun was running around helping me with my contaminated items. (Thats why I don't have photos of the Jusco shopping incident)

Lesson 1: Never have soya sauce in your bag~~

Then we waited at 12.00pm under the hot hot hot sun for my mom who never arrived because she thought I had to call her first~~miscommunication... (The cake almost melted coz we had to wait 30minutes)

Lesson 2: Always confirm your plans with your parent...

After we finally arrived at Jun's house...We immedietely set out to work. While some of use were busy...


Others were munching faster than we can make them~ =D


Tada~~Done~FINALLY without too much casualty~!! Quite a feast~ But I think we bought too much ingredients and materials~~$$ wasted



This is Arthur...from Power Axis Hetalia~!! Though I don't know why Rin-chan spend so much time to make it. (All this while she only made one sushi..I think)


But before we eat...Surprise~!! We had a surprise birthday party.

Here she is wearing one of her birthday gifts~~

Before we went home~~We were given a momento handcrafted by Qi-chan and Jun. Arigato~~
