Bad week....

This week, I couldn't do CAS properly because of some reasons:

Monday - I couldn't join tennis club because of the transportation issue.

Tuesday - I had to meet my father at Jakarta so I missed archery lesson.

Thursday - On Thursday I finally joined basketball again because the drama production is over. I practiced for one hour. We did lots and lots of lay ups and free throws. Although we didn't run much, it was very tiring for our arms because we've been using arms more than legs.

Friday - Since I haven't done much for CAS, I played badminton for around 30 minutes to keep my stamina good. I did pretty ok in badminton (I won doing doubles with my friend!)

Saturday - I joined the Big Band Jazz Galaxy practice again this week. The next performance will be for Jak Jazz (One of the famous music events in Jakarta) on December 5th. I am really excited and willing to join this performance. I practiced for one hour and thirty minutes this day. We got new songs to play. I really like it because it's very cool and jazzy.

DRAMA PRODUCTION ROBIN HOOD 2009

On Friday, we have finally finished the drama production! I feel proud of myself because I have achieved my goal and finished my task. My very first task was to create the ROBIN HOOD poster for promoting the drama production. Next was to design the t-shirt and also giving ideas for the ticket. On Thursday night (12 November) I was making snacks (brownies and cookies) for the VIP with my friends (Sam, Sakura, Joo Eun and Devi) until 3 in the morning! And finally, last Friday (13 November) I was in charge with the entrance gate for the drama show. Sam and I were checking each audiences whether they have their hands stamped or not (to prove that they have tickets). Also to help their way to go to their seats. These are the pictures my friends and I took during the ROBIN HOOD night:

Archery and fitness last week

Last week on Thursday (5 November) I did fitness for around 30 minutes. I ran and walk around the pool. After that, I did archery for around 15 minutes because there were not much participants at that time. So I was able to do around three trials. The results were really bad because I haven't been doing archery for few weeks. Tomorrow I will try to get my skills back (since I didn't do archery on Tuesday, I changed my schedule)

On Tuesday, I was doing dance instead of archery. This week, mostly all of the members were able to come to discuss about the competition for the Sports festival. We spent 1 hour for our dance activity. 

Wet court...

Today, I was supposed to have tennis lesson for my after school CAS. However it was raining again so the court was wet. I didn't have a proper shoes so I decided not to join the tennis lesson today since the floor was terribly wet. 

Last Saturday (7 Nov) I started to join the Galaxy band again (it's a big band jazz that I used to join when I was 12 years old). Galaxy is a band where we volunteer to participate practice and perform. The great part about this band is that we don't have to pay or anything to join. But it is like a lesson because whenever we have performance coming up we would have to play as a team. So we can also improve so much in our skills. I practiced from 2pm to 6pm (4 hours). This could be my CAS activities too for creativity (increasing skills) and service (volunteer). 

Dance meeting

Last Thursday, there were another meeting for the dance. I met my other two dance members, Rully and Z to talk about the competitions, music, movements and costumes. We decided to have our first performance for the upcoming sport festival in our school later on  February. We can have around three months to prepare, so that we can perform well, to motivate the school and to be school representatives. We had our meeting for 1 hour.

Dancing with Joo Eun

Yesterday after school, I danced with Joo Eun for 30 minutes. We covered one of our dance songs, WILD (we made around 16 beats of movements). Today, since I still don't have basketball hopefully my friends could join me doing dance again so that we can finish the movements early. We are also thinking of making the costume soon. Now, I am busy editing songs to use for our first performance (we will try either for the Christmas celebration or the December competition). I will try to ask the student council whether we could have the opportunity to perform or not for the Christmas celebration (*v*)

Dance dance dance

Today, instead of doing archery, I had dance practice. The reason why I chose to do dance today was because three of the members could join and dance together today. So I practiced with Joo Eun, Sakura and Sam today after school and did ok with it (we covered around 30% of the song!) We had fun today. Also, the other competition is coming up soon on December I heard, but we're still not sure whether we can participate on that one or not. We are planning to perform at least once this year so that we could achieve our goal in dancing which is to motivate the school internally and externally. 

Tennis

This week, I couldn't have tennis lesson again. Today I was prepared and was ready to play but my teacher, Pak Cahya was absent. So we couldn't play tennis. Irene and I decided to walk around the school campus and did squats for 100 times. We were trying our best to keep our stamina good. Since I couldn't have my tennis lesson again, I would have to add another hour this week by either doing dance or archery more than one hour. This week there will be no basketball practice because the gym will be occupied for the drama production. So there will be no practice until 13th of November. 

Today, the bad news I heard from my friend, was that the registering is not available anymore for this month (dance) So we will find another competition/ dance event . Besides we're not ready yet, we need more practice for the final. This week I'm planning to dance with my friends to cover up my remained CAS hour.
