As Special Guest

Shenny was invited as special guest to perform at a graduation concert organized by Ideal Music on 18 April 2013.

She performed two songs using ukulele as described below: 

1) El Condor Pasa



2)You Are My Sunshine:


(P.S. There was a different between these two songs. 
The difference was that Shenny had performed "You Are My Sunshine" for numerous times on stage while "El Condor Pasa" is the FIRST time. 
Though there was a slight hiccup at "El Condor Pasa", but mommy felt very proud of her attempt.  Also, she spent less than 3 days to practice the song.)

Different Kind of Holiday Fun - Meet Ukulele Masters

Shenny and her Ukulele Sunshine Group headed north to Penang during last March school holiday (28/3/13 - 31/3/13).  Not all the members were able to make it.  However, there were a total of 30 persons to visit Penang this time.
The reason for us to head north was to meet up with Hawaiian Ukulele Master Mr. Kimo Hussey and Taiwanese Ukulele Master Mr. David Chen.  They were invited by Mr. Chew (the owner of Manuel Ukulele) to come to Penang Island to run workshops as well as hold a solo concert at Wawasan Open University.  And, Shenny and her group were given opportunity to perform on the same stage with them too as a pre event concert.

Indeed, this is an exciting trip with lots of knowledge gained from the two Ukulele Masters.
Mommy would like to thank teacher Kelly for organizing this trip and also thanks her for driving us to Penang (4 hours to Penang and 9 hours from Penang).  We had a few cars go to Penang but mommy and Shenny took a lift from teacher Kelly's car.  Papa didn't come with us.

Below are some photos of what we had done in this wonderful trip and definitely this is a memorable holiday trip for Shenny too:
