On Friday, I had my piano competition and it sucked! I sucked! I thought I played really well on stage and I am really, in fact, completely sure that I will make it into the top 12 but I didn't. I got wiped off the first round. I was sad. My mom was sad as well. :(
This weekend, I went back to my grandparent's house to visit them. They live in Tainan, and my brother's college is nearby so on Saturday, my mom and dad drove me down. Then, Ben came down to Tainan by train because he had to take a test. Then, Sam went down to Tainan and we spent our weekend there! I love it. I enjoyed practice shooting with my slingshot my dad made for me. My dad made a slingshot for me because I was in Italy where I spotted one and I really wanted it but my dad says that those rubber bands are too sucky and I begged him to buy me one. But instead, he promised to make one for me when we come back to Taiwan and while we're visiting my grandparents in Tainan. Well, he made one for me. The "Y" stuff is made out of pure wood my dad sawed off an old tree. As for the rubber part, he found an old tire stuff and cut it. It's really awesome but I'm still working on aiming. Living at my grandparents house in Tainan is a lot of fun because their land is awfully huge!!! There's a house with a path around it where I can ride my bike and roller skate. Then, nearby, there's the land where we can dig holes, where my grandparents grow mango, banana, and coconut trees. He grows alot more than that! But I'm not in a mood of listing them all out. Well, enough about my slingshot. Guess who I met in Tainan, at my grandparent's house? Andrea Pai's cousin!!! OMG....The world is small in a way...lol....um....so on Saturday, we arrived during the afternoon and the moment I entered the house, I was like "Why is he here?" Then, I wondered to myself whether he's the right guy and later he asked me because he also recognized me. He is the right guy. I know that he's Andrea Pai, my friend's, cousin because I spent her birthdays at a sleepover at her house and this year's August 8, I sleptover and her cousins also went and I met them and we had so much fun! The world is small.... :p..... nevermind that, I actucally sawed a tree this time! It was awesome. The tree was thick!!! Really thick!!! It's an awesome holiday. I also brought four books from home to Tainan: The Hobbit, The Son of Neptune, From the Mix Up Files, and The Adventure of Tom Sawyer. I finished two of the book: The Hobbit and The Mix Up Files. I have half way more to go in Tom and barely started The Son of Neptune. It was an awesome holiday and I wish I can visit them more often.
