It was one of my desires to see how Niall worked....I had started reading his blog and admiring his work after my friend Preeti had mentioned it....
I finally got to see him personally and his wonderful work at his home. He was kind enough to show my daughters how he made his wonderful pictures!and we were very lucky to have been gifted one of his prints!
T sings very well and her desire at 9 years is that she wants to be an actress.
I have a philiosophy when it comes to such desires...try to give them an opportunity....and then they understand is it worth aspring for! Well you can't make her fly a fighter jet if her ambition is to be fighter jet pilot but you can show her movies or expose her to lives/stories of fighter pilots.
So when the church we attend announced for auditions we promptly took her and she got selected for a small role...
It was all fun and she enjoyed all the way.
Most of our Sundays for two months went in 4 to 6 hours of rehearsals and practise, that meant a stop to a lot of academic pursuits I would have liked her to do like preparing for her 11+ entrance exams etc.
The show was fantastic and all those who attended loved it.....
Well, at the end of it T also realised "acting" is not her cup of tea and she rather stick to her singing!
Here is a few photos and a videos
T is in green and yellow in the photo!
This was the finale for the last show ( they had 4 shows!)
T is the slitheryslime in the middle of the three!
I am happy she realised it herself and chose to focus on her singing than acting!
It’s a privilege to be tagged (it’s the third time) and awarded (first time ever) by a famous blogger and author so I couldn’t refuse attempting:-
Seven Things that no one knows about me:
That’s not true but I will state facts that I think most people don’t know about me.
1. I like to help others and will go out of the way….That’s not the thing that no one knows about me but these days I try very hard not to go out of the way to help! And by the way its been very hard…..to do that as it not my nature….
2. I love to read the letters written by my husband before we got married (about a dozen of them)…I usually end up reading it when he is away for a long business trip and keeps wondering “what a gamble he took?” in deciding to marry me!
3. If you ever wanted to convince yourself not to buy something you badly “wanted” and not needed….give me a call….I will always tell you the worst things first……and I can assure you , you will reevaluate the decision to buy!
4. I am a licensed insurance agent ….don’t run ….I sell only to myself! When I wanted to buy insurance as a savings option I talked to over a dozen agents and figured out how little they knew so I finally did the IRDA licensing course and became one ….but the fact (Point 3)that I can tell you the worst things about every plan and policy almost nobody ever bought ( to tell you the truth I didn’t even try!)
5. I always admired people who can sell things and always wished my children can acquire that skill……
6. I want to make a million dollars in my life time to buy a home of my dreams. It’s my desire to make that money sitting at home and doing options trading. If you are thinking I have some Godfather who will give me the money…no I have USD 300( my capital )at the moment but still believe it’s possible.
7. I graduated (Bachelors Degree) before I was 20 and chose my life partner before I turned 21!
