| Lauren Alaina |
I chatted with my eleven year old niece on Facebook at around 10:30 in the evening last night. I asked for her bet on American Idol she typed without hesitation Lauren Alaina. I thought she would like a guy because she had been a fan of David Archuleta, runner up on 7th American Idol.

My niece loves music. She plays violin as a member of String Ensemble at their school in Singapore. The group won silver in 2008 at Singapore Youth Festival and gold in 2009. Winning for gold the group was treated for a week trip to New York in November 2010. Singaporean kids dominated the group only two of the members are Filipinos, my niece and a boy a year younger than my niece.
Here are some souvenirs of the New York trip.

ReplyDelete@cLai ♥ - My niece had a chance to shake hand with David Archuleta when he went to Singapore. Two years ago, I guess. My niece said she did not wash her right hand for a day. :)@Webbielady - Yes, she is very talented. But my sister in law has to make sure she does her homework too. She is a good swimmer, likewise. My favorite sport. :)
ReplyDeleteVery talented one. Hopefully she can bring her talent on a higher level.
ReplyDeleteWow, You must be very proud of your niece! Tell her that Lauren was my favorite also. After all she is a Georgian like myself.:)
