i've just reached home.
just saw the time and i didn't know that its this late already!

i can wake up late today!
cos i don't need to go for the first lesson as the intro to perf. art class is conducted in cantonese, and i'm going to the english one, so my lesson starts at 11am instead of 9am.
reached the acdemy at 11, went to find yankov(my teacher)
and btw i'm the only student in the class for the english version of intro to perf. art
haha so its like a one to one lesson, cos apparently i'm the only one in Diploma 1 this year that doesn't know cantonese.

but today there was one guy who forgot to turn up for the cantonese lesson, so he joined me for the english one, so today there are 2 students in my class hahaha.

we went to ask if there was any empty room for us to use to have our lesson, but all the rooms were in use, so we had nowhere to go.
then yankov said "starbucks?"
then we said "sure!"
haha so off to starbucks we go for our lessons..

then we went out of the academy and we went into a coffee house to have our lesson, cos its nearer than starbucks.
haha so shuang man, the atmosphere so nice, got the coffee aroma and background music.
then have the lesson, i think intro to perf. arts is interesting, and yankov is a humourous teacher hahah, always tells us interesting things and show us interesting pictures, so its really nice to have the lesson, and the 2 hours didn't feel long at all.

after lesson, went to meet up with the rest of my classmates and we went for lunch outside,
cos our improvisation class is canceled today, so our next lesson starts at 4.15pm
we had loads of time.
went for yum cha!
hahha all the 点心 very nice.
and we talked a lot, then cos me and jason(the malaysian guy) are foreigners and new,
so our classmates treated the both of us to yum cha, so nice lah!

went back and slacked awhile before chinese folk
haha class was nice, didn't learn a lot, but the teacher is so cute lor.
then had tap after that, another wonderful lesson, i really really enjoy tap classes
they are always so fun and its really great exercise, sweat like crazy one.
and when you learn a new step, initially you will have really bad coordination, but after a bit of practise, you'll be able to do it, and that feeling is so shuang haha

rushed down to cantonese class after tap.
haiyo sian i got homework for cantonese, everyone is suppose to give a 3 min speech in cantonese next week, we must talk about how has life been as a foreigner since we came to APA.
siao 3 min leh, my cantonese cannot make it lor....how to talk for 3 min?!?!

but i think my cantonese improved!
i know how to listen to a lot more cantonese liao
and speak a little bit more, but speaking still not that good lah,
i listen better than i can talk.
i hope to learn cantonese faster!!!!! must jiayou! listen more!!

then after canto class, went to our usual hangout (its the brigde ebird!)
and we slacked there for really long, we did so many things.
haha did abit of 拉筋-ing. then we tried loads of acro stuffs.
and it was super fun! did dif kinds of flips and techniques.
then that ivan hor, i didn't know he learnt gymnastics before lor, he can do so many flips lah..
and he do 空翻 like we walking like that, its like nothing to him lor.

then we went to have dinner together at a 茶餐厅 before going home.


hahah anyway didn't post a pic about my locker room yesterday,

this is the machine outside our locker room,
you must press your student ID no. then press "enter"
then you must put your hand at the hand detector thing, when the machine verifies your hand print then you can go into the locker room, so cool right!



and these are the people who ate lunch with me on my first day of school hahah! (:
hmm i'll upload the pics of my farewell at the airport another day, maybe during the weekends, cos i need to go to bed now, have to wake up early tmr liao.
good night (:
