Lil' hi, lil' ho! (Part 2 CDO)

This is the second part. :)

Well, the second day came and this was the day that my grandma (lola) celebrated her 80th birthday. Still in VIP Hotel, as usual for the past 5 years I think. So I knew my way there :P It's near anyways. Just a walking distance.

Anyway, Inna and I didn't practice well for our dance number.
We started after classes on March but we didn't quite get to continue it. So we crammed for our steps! Gosh was it hard to learn steps. (Well, I did combine some dance steps from my dances in school since we didn't have time anymore but most of the steps in the dance were me and Inna's contribution.) Our cousins, Mayee, Maan, Adi, Oniel and their parents prepared something for their presentation. Then the twins, Anton and James, including their younger brother, Alex, were the chipmunks. They even had shirts the same color from Alvin and the Chipmunks. I'll post the videos when I can.

Cram time the most because the party was at 5pm.
Oh and I forgot, we went to mass in Xavier at 6:30 am! EARLY! VERY EARLY! lol. I wasn't used to going to mass at that time.

And crap. Our mixed music was deleted! We had 2 copies though...I for the dvd and one in the iPod just in case the dvd didn't work. We were practicing and then someone pressed the "reset settings" button. So it was deleted. Then we tried the dvd, it played 2 times faster than the usual speed. It was really weird why it was like that, when I tested it on the computer before we left and it was all good. Good thing we had 2 iPods! And we had the original song "Zero" by Varsity. So at the last hour, we had to incorporate all the dance steps in the the song! It was very nerve wracking, I tell ya! I was in the verge of screaming! It was super hard to do, especially when you're pressured.

But yeah, the party came and I didn't care if we did good or what. Haha. At least we presented! lol.

Tito Oriel's family did a James Bond (Banjing! lol) then they danced the Chacha. It was pretty cool! :D Well prepared, even!

Then it was us next. We didn't really care at all. Good thing Tito Oriel's group went first! I convinced them! What a good convincing machine I am! Kidding.

Then the chipmunks' turn to sing. They were so cute when they were only dancing to the Chipmunk's songs.

People sang. We The cuddly cousins...(yes, the cuddly cousins. we plan to change that! besides, when we made our name, we were still, what...10? unlike the wyna, they had minds to think for good names. lol). Anywhoo, we volunteered to sing "Way Back into Love" from Music and Lyrics. It was pretty cool how our voices blended. Funny coz we didn't even practice much for it.

Then other guests went away and then the family had pictures taken and we sang karaoke.
Me and Ate Yen sung "How did you know" by Gary V. I didn't know the lyrics, but good thing there was a song book.

Till the next blog!
Adios!
