Making Orange Juice

Today, my Grandma gave us a juicer. So my Dad bought oranges. Then he called me and showed me how to make juice. Then I tried doing it myself. Dad helped me. I pushed the oranges into the hole and turned it on. Then it became juice! I made juice until the oranges were all gone! I gave my Mom, my Dad, and my Brother juice. And I drank my own fresh orange juice. It tasted good. But sour! So my Dad got some honey from the kitchen. We put the honey by the teaspoonful. And the juice tasted better! It was just right. Here are my photos making fresh orange juice ---

My Birthday

YAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

TODAY IS MY BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I am nine today!

When I woke up, I was soooo happy! I dressed up and washed my face and brushed my teeth and then me and my family went to the car. We drove to my grandparents' house then they got into the car and we went to a restaurant called "Greenwich". We ate pizza, pasta, fried chicken, and lots more! We had a nice time. My grandparents gave me money. I thanked them then we drove them back to their house.

After that, we went home and brought out a cake from Conti's. It is a restaurant-bakeshop that sells cakes and more. The cake was a mango cake that Conti's calls "Mango Tart". My mom put my nine candles the candles and then my dad lit it up. I blew the candles and made a wish. My mom put the candles away from the cake so we can eat it. But we were still full from the food from Greenwich. So we saved it for later and put it in the refrigerator.

Here is a picture of me and my cake:



Time for gift-giving!!!!! I sat on the rocking chair and closed my eyes and put my hands out. My mom and dad gave me the gift. I opened it and saw a pink Hello Kitty box. I opened the box and saw a Hello Kitty Telephone! I yelled "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!" And my parents and I hung it on the wall of my room. I started calling my friends but they were'nt there. I knew why. Because my birthday is on April 24 - Easter Sunday!

So after that, we went to the car and drove somewhere else. We went to a Videoke place called "Music 21 Plaza". We went to our videoke room. It was green and there were black sofa chairs and groovy green lights. There was a mini disco ball. The time was 3:00. We started singing. I sang first! I sang Love Story by Taylor Swift because she is my favorite singer. Then my Brother sang 21 Guns by Green Day. And we sang and sang until 7:00.

Our last song was Happy Birthday. I got the camera and put it on a table where we could all be seen. We sat on the chairs and my Mom, my Dad, and my Brother sang a Happy Birthday to me. I sat beside them. And when we checked the camera if it was a good video, IT WAS OFF!!! It had no more battery. My Mom, my Dad, and my Brother sang Happy Birthday infront of a camera that is off! We laughed and laughed about it. But we still had a previous video of ourselves singing Happy Birthday.

And then we left. We went to a restaurant called "Banapple". We ate our dinner there. I even got a free Banapple pen because it was their Easter giveaway!

We went back home after we all finished eating. My dad got out the Mango Tart cake. We ate 2 pieces of cake each. And BANG! The Mango Tart cake was all finished.

It was the best day ever.

My Royal Academy of Dance Exam

Today, I had my RAD (Royal Academy of Dance) exam! Every year, all the RAD students have an exam to see if they could go to the next level. I'm grade 2 and I took the exam to go to grade 3. The examiner, Miss Greene, was very nice. She's from London. After every dance she always says, "That was lovely!" or "Wonderful, girls!".



The picture on top shows me and my 3 friends who took the exam with me. But that's not all! Some of them went home after the exam immediately so I wasn't able to take their picture too. For those who want to know more about RAD, click this: Royal Academy of Dance

I Am Going Back To School!


Today, I went to the dentist with my parents and my big brother. The dentist cleaned my teeth and I didn't have any cavities. Then, she also said that I can wear my Facemask for a shorter time already!

And I can go back to school on Tuesday, March 1! Yay!!! I miss school! Thank God my jawbones are growing better and improving! I'm excited for Tuesday. I'm sure all my classmates missed me!

If you want to read about my full story, go to my Mom's site, STORIES FROM MY GARDEN, and read more about my Facemask.

I'm Going To Taylor Swift's Concert!!!


YAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY!!!!!

Taylor Swift has a concert in Manila!!! And I'm going!!! Taylor Swift is my favorite singer!!! My Apple iPod is loaded with her songs! I can't wait! Taylor Swift's concert is gonna be held on February 19, 2011. ONE NIGHT ONLY.

It all started like this:

One day, my Daddy watched the tv. Then he saw a commercial saying that Taylor Swift will have a concert in Manila. Then he told me. The next thing that happened:
YIPPPPPPEEEEEE!!!!!

We called TicketNet to get tickets for her concert. We called everyday. Until one day, the guy in the TicketNet office said that they will start selling tickets the next day. So Daddy reserved 3 tickets(Mybig brother doesn't want to come, so it will be just me, my Mommy, and Daddy!). The next day, we woke up early. Then immediately Daddy picked up our concert tickets from TicketNet. TADAAAHHH! We now have tickets for the Taylor Swift concert!

It will be at the Araneta Coliseum.

Only a few days until February 19!!!

I Have A Wii!

Yay!!! I have a Nintendo Wii. My aunt (my mommy's sister) in New Jersey gave us a present for me and my big brother! We are very excited. The package for us arrived and we picked it up from the mall. We opened it and saw our Nintendo Wii!!! My big brother and I really had a nice time playing. And with the Wii, my aunt also sent two additional games. The game for me is Just Dance 2. I really like it! And for my big brother, Star Wars: The Force Unleashed 2. My brother is really happy too!

Here is a picture of the Wii:



Included with the Wii are two free games (aside from what my aunt sent). Wii Sports and Wii Sports Resort. In Wii Sports, you can play baseball, boxing, golf, tennis, bowling, or you can just practice. Wii Sports Resort has lots more games! Like canoeing, sky diving, biking, table tennis, bowling, and lots more! They're both really fun too!
