Lhwo Dayaa Khau Dayaa Dance

I also danced in the culture program it was called Lhow dayaa Khau dayaa. Lhow dayaa Khau dayaa is a Newah song.  The dancing was so fun. First I did not want to dance because I have never tried before. Every time when I go in front of people, like on stage I get so nerves. Then I changed my mind because I wanted to try something different. Showing people me dancing on stage is something exciting. I worked hard for practicing the dance every week for 4 weeks. We went to Rajesh Uncle’s house for practicing. Everybody came there. We had to wear some make up on our face we looked so pretty when we danced. After the dance, I got a certificate. All of my friends got one too! I was very proud of myself. Here is the video, Please look.

Yo maa Yo baa chhaye masyena

Singing a song for a cultural program

There is a cultural program on May 24, 2009. I am going to sing a song in a group in the program. The peoples who are going to sing the song with me are Ruby, Rosie, Roz, Salina, Slesa and Monee. Those are the peoples I know but there are some few more peoples in the group. I will ask their names next week. Every week we practice the song together. Prajwol uncle plays a black guitar for the song. Sugandha uncle plays an orange guitar for the song too! And baba plays tabalas. The tabala is a drum a Nepalese drum. My sister wants to sing the song too but I am worried she will mess up in the program. I wish she could be included in the song. Here is a small video of our song practice.  

Field trip to Museum

My class and I went to the Laurel museum on April 21, 2009.  We learnt that in 1950s peoples used a big big pot to wash themselves.  They get water from the river. The river was so deep where people can swim. People use the big pot to get water from the river. Then peoples put it in the fire place. The water slowly warmed up. When the water was hot then they took a bath. But still they did not smell good. So they had a little bag of good smelly things like perfume and they put the smelly objects in there chest or under there shirt. Then their whole body had good smell. That is what I learned about the life of people in 1950s in the museum.
