This is something which I look forward to every year. At the moment, I look forward to Athena's concert and it'll be her graduation in 2 years time.
The event is scheduled to start at 10am, but as usual we would reach there early to view the photos taken at the full dress rehearsal and place our orders.
Athena's class did 2 performance this year - a bonus! Her class performed first. It was certainly a "sit up" as audiences were rapped up at the second portion of the song - 阿里郎 or Arirang (traditional Korean song) which is meant to be a slow song.
She stepped on her hanbok and somehow she clash with Elliot and the audience laughed.
But I must admit she does look good in a hanbok.

阿里郎 阿里郎 阿拉里哟
阿里郎山岭我要越过
情人呀你要是抛弃了我
不过十里遥,将因脚疾难行
阿里郎 阿里郎 阿拉里哟
阿里郎山岭我要越过
加快脚步赶路吧
在白头山那头,夕阳将西落
阿里郎 阿里郎 阿拉里哟
阿里郎山岭我要越过
晴朗的天空里寒星点点
在我的心坎里,烦忧重重
Translation :
Beautiful, beautiful hill;
He is going over Arirang.
My love who leaves me will get his feetsore soon
before he makes even 10 Korean miles.
Beautiful, beautiful hill;
He is going over Arirang.
Let's go, let's go, let's hurry.
The sun is setting down over the side of mountain Baekdoo.
Beautiful, beautiful hill;
He is going over Arirang.
There are a lot of little stars in the clear sky.
There are much sadness in my heart.
Her next performance was a non-english song as well. It's a Hebrew cum English song Hinei Ma Tov הִנֵה מָה-טוֹב . - an Isreal peace dance. So finally I got to listen to the lyrics of the song - Athena has been singing "Neh Mah Toe" all these while.

Dunno to say this year is very suay or what.... her headband was in her eyes, and she was struggling to bring it up, at the same time maintaining her calmness and danced along. Needless to say, the audience laughed at her but I must say she's been very brave to continue her dance and didn't cry or throw tantrum.

The finale song - If you are Black or White
As usual the kids were playing around with their friends when we picked them up from the chapel. Took some photos of her and her friends :
Jachelle, Wei Teng & Athena
Athena threw herself at Braxton this year, and it was funny when we heard Braxton saying "I dowan.. I dowan... " - imagination run wild (Athena trying to rape Braxton) They were playing. And like every year we would take photos of Braxton & his sister. Melia will be in P1 next year and we don't know if Braxton will still be in LCCC - Lutheran ChildCare Centre.
Ai yoh.......hugging a boy again! Seen here with Braxton
Athena, Braxton & his sister, Melia
Will put in more photos in her blog.
