PH-charity dinner :)

30th of Sept

'The theme is 'coming back to school' so you gotta wear school uniform for the dinner' 'oh!! wear skirt wear skirt!! You have hardly worn it, this is a great chance' replied mum....I was sort of regretting of being this honest to tell her what the dress code of the charity dinner was. I don't like dresses and skirts unless I take selfies at home>.>

Come on, 'you need to be more ladylike' This is not the first time someone has said that. I just want to ask: Am I not THAT ladylike??!>.>

Anyways I made it on time to the charity dinner and Gwinny took a few photos with me before we got in. We sat at the very front, table number 2 is right at the front of the stage lol which is good for someone like me don't need to use my glasses to watch the show

It was extremely awkward sitting with strangers at the same table. Then these 3 tall guys in suits and ties caught my eyes when they walked in, Gwinny and I were whispering to each other...>.> This formal? Are they one of the sponsorship? 

They walked past a few tables and ended up sitting next to me where there were exactly three vacancies there lol uhuh..that's right...my new friend saw hot guys sitting next to me, she asked all of us to move over and swap seat with her after half an hour they came...

Oh btw my new friend was the table leader. I didn't get the point to have a table leader until they played a group game that to unite everyone at the same table

I ate eagerly during dinner even my friends asked why I was with this good appetite. Two magic shows were on, one of them made the egg appear and disappear from his own towel, that's not all, he even made the tissue to go through the egg shell. His way of performance was integrated with a series of storytelling so that has increased the level of mysteriousness somehow. Great tactic there...Another magic show was a fail at the beginning, the performer was trying to stack cards up and place some heavier items on top of them. After a few times of collapse of his construction, he started to shake his head and become sweaty, continuously wiping his forehead. Then we clapped to encourage him so the very last time he built it halfway, then the typical sleight of hand smoothly cut his model into half and the whole thing turn into a little green straw all in a sudden...

Later, the presentation from the committee was not bad, but it would be even better if they have added a touchy piece of song in to produce some effects. 

The most impressive presentation was the one who has been to a poor province in China and that she has made friend with the smartest student in there who everyone thinks he can get in Beijing University(the top uni in China). But when she asked which uni he wanted to attend, he said that he wanted to be like the presenter to come to Australia. ‘I have never thought that I am this lucky to come to Australia until someone admires me' She said. That was exactly what I thought as well, she just took the words right out of my mouth. She cried nearly to the end of her presentation, I shed a few tears because of her words resonates with the thought that is me, and I feel it

Sometimes I may be unlucky in some circumstances but at least I have this opportunity to live in a wealthy country; I am not wealthy but Josh Charles says 'when all is said and done, if you can count all your true friends on one hand, you are lucky' I am lucky because at least having 5 friends or more that I consider they are close by now; Friends may not be your only asset and they may not be with you for a long time, but at least I have my mum here supporting me no matter what happens; There may be some disagreement between the one I love, but at least I can wake up every morning and walk out the balcony, see the beautiful sky, breathe in the fresh air and live in the way I like. Luck, is just this simple and clear. You don't expect to have the best, you can't avoid to live to the worst, you don't get to make your decision all the time, fate can be fluctuated but you know what, the chances of each of us coming into existence are small, we should all count ourselves fantastically lucky with the things we own not the things we lose...

Jump back to the charity dinner here lol... I wrote a long message to my paper heart and stick it to that big heart shape cupboard which is sending to the children in poverty in China a few weeks later. I am starting to love this community and think this is the best decision I have made these days. This act of spreading the love is genuinely in a form of a silent blessing but a simple touch to show we care for others...What is love? To my understanding, one of the most important factors is that you just gotta be there and truly listen to the one without the need to speak, this is the ultimate level of showing incredibly love and caring

Enough of love talk :3 the ultimate dance game was another highlight of the night. Each table had to pick a person to represent and hence, to compete with the other 11 representatives. Our table leader Doris voluntarily went on the stage and grouped with the other two guys. She was one of the two lady competitors there, our table 2 was so proud of her and screamed like crazy. Don't know if that's pure luck or she really did a great job, she got in the second round of the game. Some of the guys teamed up and acted like they were drug overdosed...Applause and screaming everywhere like a live club 

Came back home and talked to panpan a bit before we both went to sleep. He told me his aunt and uncle were leaving for China tomorrow. Shame that I couldn't meet them up but oh well....And his stalker sent me a friend request for some reason. It has been so weird when several of his friends want to add me these days :S 

Oh btw, happy national day tomorrow!!! :3 hard working Chinese deserve a long holidays yay xD
