What is the correct etiquette as a musical audience?
I find it irritating that audience cannot follow house rules.
Do you think that the house puts that "no photography, videography and eating" sign for fun?
The sign is so big at the door and yet people still break them.
Take out camera to snap, eat inside the theatre.
Come on... the staff did not confiscate the cameras because they trust that this is our personal belonging that we always carry out.
Yet, people misuse this trust to break the house rules.
How well will the images come out?
Blur?
Too bright?
Come on, I'm here to enjoy the show, not and blinded by all the flashing lights before the show began.
Just a rather pissed off audience,

CATS, now and forever
I just came back from watching CATS.
I bought the tickets to watch CATS the musical last week.
It cost me $153 but... the musical was worth it.
The set is nice as it filled the whole esplanade theatre.
The story was good and it was rather touching at the last part of the musical.
Little did I know that the musical was a bit interactive as the audience found the cats to be amongst them during the poem recital in the beginning of Act 1.
Usually, the actors would only come out from backstage.
But my guess is that since it's CATS, the "cats" will be coming out from everywhere.
In the opening play, there were cats that came out from the theatre door.
It was interesting.
The interaction continued just after the intermission break where the cats were found loitering around at the audience seats.
The whole musical lasted about 3 hours including break.
My ticket
The original cast recording album I bought after the musical

CCSS X-Country 2009
No school today.
Because the school is having her annual cross country cum 2.4km run at the East Coast Park.
The gathering point is at the sandcastle building area.
Since it's rather near, I've decided to cycle to the location.
Before that, I met up with Mdm Poon and Sophia for breakfast at east coast mac to have coincidentally met Liping and Joo Huat.
I ordered the Sausage McGriddles with Egg meal with Ice Lemon Tea.
Oh... I'm loving the McGriddle.
It is actually hotcake with maple syrup sauce shaped into the shape of a muffin bun.
Yummy... I want to eat it again.
After breakfast, I cycled to the gathering point - Sandcastle Beach.
The whole event ended at about 11.30am.
Ruby house was a total disappointment.
Only a handful of the students were cheering and they looked so dead.
After the event was lunch at Parkway's Jack's Place.
It's my first time there.
I ordered the NZ Ribeye Steak, medium done.
It's nice and the potato with the sour-cream and bacon bits is tasty.
It was nice lunch as 6 teachers got to seat down for a nice out of school chat. (We hardly get a chance to do that)
After lunch was cycling back home.
It was about 2pm and the sun was hot hot hot!
Reached home so tired, wet and shagged.
Total distance cycled: about 21km
It was a nice cycle.

Courage
As I sat down to do my work
He pop by on msn
And started talking to me in French
Lol...
Je suis tres noob
I told him
French was like 3 years ago
It's rusty now for me
I could only remember a few words
Je comprends et parle un peu de Français.
Simple words I can understand
For the past many days
I've been on the lookout for his appearance on msn
But we never manage to see each other
Finally he came today
And I've decided to tell him what I wanted to say
It took a long pause after I told him that I'm going to say something to him
Typing online is easy work on the fingers but a big step in expressing your feelings
I took up the courage and told him what I wanted to say
And from then on, my mind felt so at ease, though a bit saddening
That is my courage.
Courageously,
Peiyan
