When In Doubt, Cheer Your Heart Out.

These are our excited asses just before leaving for Cheer Clinic 2011.  I love my girls, BLϟTZERZ. Look at our shirts, YES it's finally here! MY DESIGNS, COME TO LIFE! Though I'm a tad bit disappointed with the back and I think we could have gotten a less see through material but other than that it's how I pictured it, clean and fresh, simplicity at it's best ;) That totally rhymed! Can't wait for the black one. 
  
Of all fine days to twist my ankle, it happened during Cheer Clinic, while we were performing our routine to the judges -_- GREAT. You would probably die of laughter if I told you how I twisted it. Should save myself the humiliation and get back to icing my swollen ankle :(

current yesterday's state. Gotten better today, yey ^_^v 

 I'm so hating myself for this. Please god, help me recover in time for competition.

Pray guys prayyyy! FOR BLITZERZ.

[EDIT:]

Screw the counter, competition has been postponed to the 24th of July!
Which, is good new for my ankle but bad news for the competitors since it's only a one day competition! D: There's no room for mistakes, we only got 1 chance to perform, better not blow it.
Competition only gets tougher and tougher each year ._.
wish us luck, bud4 boleh!

Liese Bubble Hair Dye in Chestnut Brown

Hello! Hope everyone's enjoying their school holidays!
Well I sure am, after having to finally dye my hair for the first time. HEEE. I thought of coloring my hair a couple of months ago, that's when I decided to buy the Leise Bubble Hair Dye. I asked Melissa's opinion on it since she has tried Liese's Bubble Hair Dye before and coincidentally she was using the same color that I had bought! I wanted something subtle and natural looking so I went for Liese's second darkest color -- Chestnut Brown. 


I got my hair dye from Sasa. They were having their weekly sale, so it was discounted to RM34 if I'm not mistaken. They even gave me a free mask and a tiny butterfly keychain :)

Hmm, I would say this hair dye is rather fun to do on a little DIY weekend. But I would recommend getting someone to help you on your first try. Like my mom, she helped me out with this one, and since my hair is kind of short I had left overs so she joined the fun x)

MUST DO's:
>> Be in a well ventilated area/ with mini fan or opened windows. This is cause the dye gives out a really really strong ammonia smell, it has already been more than 24hours and yet the smell is still in my hair!
>> Apply oil base product eg.Petroleum Jelly on forehead, ears and neck to avoid staining.
>> Wear some raggy-ol' t-shirt or just cut a plastic bag a tie it around your neck, like what I did. 
>> Wear gloves, duh.
& have fun :D


End results under sunlight.
It's only noticeable when the light hits, but indoors hardly anyone notices it. Unless you actually knew how black my hair was previously, it would be really obvious. Well maybe I'm speaking too soon, cause Melissa says it'll get lighter and lighter after more washes. So we'll see... Overall I guess I'm pretty satisfied with this product. Go give it a try since it's the holidays!

Perfection Celebrative Hi-Tea & The Week

I'm so sorry for my somewhat prolonged blogging absence. However, this week has been particularly busy. From Inter-house Basketball competition held on Monday and Tuesday, to hopping from cheer practices to basketball practices each other day. Inter-house was great, yellow house did an amazing job winning all 3 matches and snagging first place for all categories in basketball. I'm so happy :') 

Next, MSSD basketball next Tuesday! Scraped my left knee in finals of inter-house and got a nasty wound, [insert some graphic disturbing photo] let's hope it doesn't affect my performance.                  "Let's hope for the best, we can do this." i know i say line too much in a basketball match. HAHA

credits to Zheng Hao for this picture.

Besides that, I also attended Perfection's annual Celebrative Hi-Tea last Saturday with a couple of my tuition buddies. It was a dress to impress event so, everyone dolled up and got their best outfit on that afternoon. Brian looked rather dashing that evening, with his new haircut and formal attire, not to mention Mr. Loke too, who doesn't seem to admit that it was him, when we questioned him in tuition last night. He claims the guy we saw that day was his "twin bother". HA-HA!
Hitched a ride with Amelia to Perfection's HQ located in Kepong. Food there was good, but the only down side to it was it was very hard to eat as there were no tables. They were performances by both students and teachers that evening. It was like watching my school's very own Malam Bakat, which was held a night before the Hi-tea. (didn't attend malam bakat cause I had Physics &Add Math tuition, sue me :P ) Crashed at Regine's that night and it was straight to basketball training the next morning. 

This was what I wore that fine evening. 

Dress: Clothes For Fun, Lace Biker Jacket: Blaq Magiks, Bag: Agape Boutique, Shoes: Frollics.



Mouth watering or what? I only took pictures of this table, cause it was my favorite. HEE
Just look at the amount of BERRIES! #.#



My rockstars and I. Lyonnes too performed that evening.


with my tuition buds (who apparently ganged up on me to score 6A's, haha!), including Brian,
Christopher and Keeve who helped took this photo.

The following day, had an hour of badminton with ze badminton buddies, Brian, Arif and Yong Jac. Mom decided to pay for our first game. After that it was dinner at Asia Cafe next door.

CIMB KL Open Squash Championship 2011



Well as you can see in this photo right here, Blitzerz was at the semi finals and finals of the CIMB KL Open Squash Championship held in Berjaya Times Square last weekend, where our very own Nicol David  emerged triumphant for the 7th time! She was up against Word No. 6 Madeline Perry of Ireland in the finals. Nicol took just 34 minutes to win the match 11-6, 11-6, 11-2. However, in the men's finals, both from Egypt, world No.3 Karim Darwish beat Mohamed El Shorbagy 11-9, 11-9, 11-3 in a game of 53 minutes. That match in particular was really exiting to watch as the 2 men's scores were really close! 

As cheerleaders, we were invited to perform for them in between matches. Got there early on Day 1 for makeup. Vinyi and Amanda were just darls to volunteer themselves to help with the makeup. After getting our makeup done, we then head in the court for some warm up. After that we went to grab a bite, practically raided the whole Cold Storage. 

Soon after lunch we were told to be seated down as the game was about to start. Us cheerleaders were given seats directly behind the players, so it was really a fan girl moment for all of us. Funniest part is when the guy players take their shirts off in between matches to change to another one, and of course the camera would be facing the players, you couldn't imagine how much Ashley and I were trying not to laugh. 

We were told to only perform three routines a day, but we ended up doing five on Day 1. I was so eager for it to make it on live TV, that I'd already set it for recording at home. Came home and watch through it, to find only a glimpse of our routine for Day 1. However on Day 2, careless me forgot to set recording and BAM, NOTHING! :(  Mom said they aired it on TV, so hating myself for this. 

Performance wise I think we did great! All stunts went up for all 7 routines, succeeded the 21 front walks I did in total for 2 days, Mel's side aerial is getting better by the try, not to forget Yuzana's front walk, and everyone else's. Great job!


Here are some pictures I took. More at Facebook
Here we are rushing to get our makeup done.

Us asking Nicol David for her autograph. Didn't manage to bring anything for her to sign on the first day, so I asked her to sign my clappers which was given there.

The half routine, on DAY 1

Overall, it was a great but exhausting experience, really enjoyed myself. Now, I think i caught the flu :(
BYE.
