Finally Friday

Friday, November 29, 2013

I'm sorry for not blogging so much, these past two weeks! It is just that I have been studying so much, these two weeks. Last week, the week before exams, this week exam week! But now it is Friday and ALL the exams are FINALLY over! Sooooooooooooooo nice, you have no idea!

Today after all our exams finished, there was a guest speaker who came to our school! His name was Paul Neil, and he has climbed Mount Everest! Isn't that so FREAKISHLY cool? I think it is! He has also climed all the seven summits, which means that he has climed the highest mountain on each of the seven continents in the world! Cool right? 
I personally think it would be cool to climb Mount Everest, but also scary because it can be very dangerous! Would you like to climb Mount Everest? 


Christmas Fair

Sunday, November 24, 2013

Today as I said in my last post, my brother had a Christmas fair at his school. We baked cupcakes and then they sold them there. It was a nice fair, with lots of activities. They also sold toys and other stuff, they had sort of like a bake sale where we sold our cupcakes. It seemed like people liked them, because when we left there was only five cupcakes left so that was fun!
After that we went to a cafe to have hot chocolate, because we didn't actually buy any foods at the fair!
When I came home I was in a Christmas mood, I can probably guess why. So I put on Christmas music haha! Are you guys looking forward to Christmas?



Cupcake baking-Christmas Fair

Saturday, November 23, 2013

Hello! Yesterday when I came home from school, my helper had baked the 'muffin' part of the cupcakes, if you know what I mean haha. So then I put icing on them! We were baking, because today my brother has a Christmas Fair at his school, and we decided we were to bake cupcakes and sell them!
I made some of them red and green, like Christmas colours!
I can't believe it is Christmas so soon!






Moving up

Monday, November 18, 2013

On Monday we moved up to the 47th floor! Because they are going to be renovating the building next to us, and so we didn't want to live too close to the renovation. Now you may wonder, but we still live in the same building how is that going to help? Well so the building next to us is literally wall to wall if you live in B, but now we live in A which is on the other side. (if you know what I mean). It is also better because the building that is going to renovated is (only) 25 floors, and we used to live in 20B and  since we lived in  B we were like wall to wall, to the building that is going to be renovated. But now we live in 47A, which is much higher then the renovation and since it is A we are on the other side. So we now live 27 floors higher up then we use to! Hope you guys understood what I meant haha! (I will write more about Macau later) We are so high up now!

Hotel breakfast at Macau

Friday, November 15, 2013

Today when we woke up we went to have breakfast at the hotel. Isn't hotel breakfasts one of the best things ever? At least I think so. Then we went to look at the pools! Now we are soon going for lunch! Ok now I will tell you a bit about Macau for the people who don't know what it is! So Macau is an island outside Hong Kong. Macau basically consists of an old town, hotels and casinos haha! We are staying here in Macau just over the weekend, because my parents are going on a big dinner tonight! One fun fact about Macau is that Macau have more casinos then Las Vegas!

Here are some photos of the hotel 




Some photos of our breakfast 


Aren't they just so cute? 



This week

This week was kind of a normal week. Except on Wednesday we had school photo day. It was fun! I think the photos turned out good, but I don't think we get them until about a month! After school I also had Faust which was fun. We learnt how to fake slap and punch people haha! Then we went through a scene from a play and we had to put in the punches and slaps where we though they fit in. Then we preformed the scene together with the slaps and punches haha!
On Friday after school my brother, my mum and I took a ferry to Macau, which is an island about one hour from Hong Kong. Then we met up with my dad, who was already here at the hotel. Afterwards we went to a show which is called 'House Of Dancing Water'. It was a very good show! 

Unfortunately we weren't aloud to take pictures of the show, but I have a photo of the show just before it started! 


Dinosaurs

Saturday, November 9, 2013


Today we went to a restaurant that serves 'hairy crabs' haha. I don't actually know why they are called hairy crabs, maybe they are a bit more hairy then other crabs haha! Well went there because my mum had a colleague that said hairy crabs were good so we wanted to try them, so we did. They were actually quite good. Later we went to a Agnes B café. Their hot chocolate is super good! Afterwards we went to a Dinosaur exhibition, my brother wanted to go to. They had made the exhibition very nice!

The first day of winter

Thursday, November 7, 2013

I'm sorry that I haven't posted in a few days! But I have had so much Summative projects and in about two weeks we have exam week ugh! So I don't know how good the update will be. Ok enough about that, today we had a Mandarin assessment, I think it went well! In Science class we did an experiment with acids and metals, some of them actually turned blue haha!
Apparently today is the first day of winter, I saw it on google haha! I didn't know November seventh was the first day of winter, did you guys know that? Hope all of you had a good Thursday, and tomorrow is FRIDAY yaaaaay!

I just really like these pictures for some reason haha! They're so random haha! 


Mud cake!

Tuesday, November 5, 2013

After school today, Tyra and I went to my place. If you didn't know Tyra is a Swedish girl in my school. First we ate lunch. After lunch we decided we wanted to bake so we did, we baked a Mud cake. It turned out quite good actually! Afterwards we mostly just hung out, talked and laughed!  It was really nice! Tyra is a very nice person :)
