Hello everyone!!!

1. There is nothing much to post about during the holidays unless I go out and stuff so don't expect me to update my blog everyday, ok? :)

2. Qi Jin, Yiying and Jovi came over to my place today.
They agreed to meet at the interchange at 2.30pm then go and buy drinks and snacks then come to my house so I thought they would arrive at around 1530 but they arrived at 4!
I was watching TV when Qi Jin suddenly called me to tell me that they were standing outside my side gate!
Then I told her:" That's the reason I told you to call me when you boarded the bus, so that I could wait for you all at the bus stop!"
Okok, then we went into the room to watch August Rush.
We initially planned to watch Ratatouille but then Yiying brought that VCD so...
Here's the almost complete plot of the movie:

This is a story of a music prodigy. Lyla is a renowned and beautiful cellist and Louis is a bass player in club. Lyla and Louis fall in love once they meet each other following the music. Since they lead different lives, they have to separate without seeing each other once again. However, Lyla has had their baby-Evan, a prodigy born to music. Lyla has an accident and bears the baby but Lyla's father gives the baby to an orphanage but does not tell her this in case of affecting her career. After that, both Louis and Lyla give up the music career. Eleven years later, poor little Evan believes that their parents are waiting for him and goes to New York to find his parents. In New York, his music gift leads him to success but also gives him some trouble. A monger uses Evan to make money and prevents him from success. He escapes and runs into a church and people there are surprised by his gift and send him to the best music school, Juilliard. In the Juilliard school, he receives normal education but his genius makes him brilliant and created his composition--August Rhapsody in C major. At the same time, Lyla and Louis both begin to play music again and Louis has been in New York. Because of his perfect performance, Evan is granted an opportunity to play his music in the central park in front of thousands of people. There are totally three composers and he is featured last while his mother is second. As Evan is directing the orchestra to play his rhapsody, Lyla and Louis come to the concert following the music again. The family get together finally!

We were wondering why Evan's face was so familiar when Jovi said," Hey, isn't that the boy who plays Charlie in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?"
Then we went," OH YEAH! No wonder so familiar!"

After the movie, Jovi went home first while the 3 of us played the piano.
When I played 'Mary had a Little Lamb', that was when Qi Jin realized that only 3 keys are needed! :DDD
Then we went to the backyard to play on the swing.
Then Yiying acted sick and me and Qi Jin started laughing like mad.
After we talked about some more random stuff, they went home, cuz there wasn't enough time to go to the playground even if we wanted to. :(

P.S. That was only the second time in my life that friends came to my house for non-work purposes.
