Etonhouse Vanda Concert 2007

This year's Etonhouse Vanda Concert was held on 16 November 2007, Friday! Similar to last year, Papa and Mama took leave to watch the much anticipated performance by Gwendolyn. Why? As Lyn Lyn told us that her class, Victoria Falls will be singing 2 songs: The Rainbow Song, with her representing the colour RED and then another mandarin song called Xiao Qing Wa (小青蛙). Ms Wahila has asked us parents to prepare a pair of white pants and a solid colour t-shirt for her Rainbow Song performance and nothing for the 小青蛙 song, as there will be special costumes made in school! So everyone was really looking forward to the concert!

As usual, it started with the K2 Graduation Ceremony, where Ms Jam's son, Jordon will be leaving for primary school this year! Also, Bai Laoshi's son, Xin Bo is leaving as well...

Finally it's Lyn Lyn's turn! Once she stepped her foot on stage, she quickly looked for Papa Mama's whereabouts and kept waving at Papa and Mama! Confidently waiting for the music to start, she remembered all her actions and would take chances to move closer to the microphone to ensure that her singing voice is being heard via the microphone! A born-performer? When the performance was over, she was tasked to lead her class down the stage by saying: 1-2-3 bow; 1-2-3 turn; 1-2-3 go... You can tell how enthusiastic she was in ensuring the performance was good!

Follow the leader!

Finally, the long-awaited 小青蛙 is finally here! When Papa and Mama saw Lyn Lyn's appearance...oh no...instead of 小青蛙, she looked like a 胖青蛙! Maybe the white skirt was kind of fluffy and made her look very FAT! Anyways, most people find it cute though...When the music starts, Lyn Lyn didn't shy away, but followed the action closely...when she hopped like a frog, there were several times where she jumped to seriously and almost fell down...so close! But you can tell how much she's enjoyed herself...

And you think the concert was over? No...the grand finale is a Malay song: Pop Yeh Yeh! Look at how hip our 胖青蛙 is, with her sunglasses? She was dancing away with everyone else in a retro style!

Here's everyone: Say Cheese!

After the performance, all the kids returned to their classrooms to get changed. Initially, she changed back to her Rainbow Song costumes. However, she requested to change to her pretty dress again...recently, she loves wearing dresses...why? Coz her good friend Carissa wears a dress!

What a wonderful performance, Lyn Lyn! Well done! She was proud of herself remembering every moves that she's practised! Nothing's gone down the drain!
