Since they say: Idle hands makes mischief, what shall I do since I have activated a self-impose shopping ban (I obviously can’t shop anymore)
Was fiddling with cleaning up my room and gathering all those stuff I can no longer fit into and then sell them for dirt on ebay? There is no guarantee that they would sell but then at least that will keep me occupied clear up space and make up some moolah at the same time??
Watch her for an array and inspiration of makeup ideas. And now what is really wonderful is that she is having her first blog giveaway, courtesy of Koreacreed26 (from ebay) for sponsoring this.
So what are you all waiting for? Hop on to Whitz World of Makeup First Giveaway!
Went with a couple of friends to the musical today. We got the tickets a while ago via piority booking.
Lazy me didn’t bother to do my homework before going into the show. So for the 1st half of the musical, I totally didn’t know what was going on.
Why the cats are gathered together, who is who, why are all of them singing an individual song per cat.
It is only during intermission when I read my friend’s programme that I managed to snatch a bit of the plot.
Well, all I can say is if you are going to watch something, you had better be diligent and read up on your show. Cos even after reading the plot, I still can’t hear/understand what they actors/actresses were singing.
My friend says that is to be expected cos they are only singing out the vowels and not enunciating the words.
I much prefer the old Kallang Theatre where they have a electronic billboard on top of the stage whereby you can see subtitles (both English and Chinese being flashed throughout the show) I wonder why the state-of-the-art Esplanade doesn’t have this facility.
The show does try to invoke alot of audience participation, the Cats will come down the stage and make/poke fun at the audiences, steal a bag or two away etc.
Up close, you can see how skin tight their leotards really are (heehee)
Since I am not a connoisseur, for this musical, I can only appreciate the choreography of the dances, the pirouettes done, the acrobatics of the dances;) Not even the song “Memory” can make me change my mind.
I would watch Miss Saigon, Le Miserables and Phantom again but prolly not Cats. Sorry.
P.Ss My friend mentioned that alot of the audiences came out of the hall commenting that they’d much preferred Phantom of the Opera over Cats.
Waiting impatiently for 1pm for the race to start.
It’s weird hearing commentary in Mandarin but then it’s better than nothing and I will get to learn the technical jargon in Mandarin?;P
with Ferraris and the McLarens dominating the top 3 positions. Erm occasionally a Renault or a Red Bull will come in but not often.
Well, that was true until Honda announced their immediate withdrawal from the sport in late quarter last year, very much due to the economic downturn.
There was a mad scramble to obtain news of the withdrawal by all the sporting world (ok, I’m exaggerating) Then afterwards, a mad scramble to find buyer/buyers for the team.
Such a waste really, if the team goes down before 2009 cos the KERS (Kinetic Energy Recovery System) cars were already developed when the First Night Race was happening in Singapore.
Team Boss was left going around and sourcing for buyers. (do note that even though Honda is relinquishing all rights to the team by selling it, they do have a decision making vote as to who they want to sell the team to)
Rumours of the prospect buyer being a Mexican millionaire, Virgin Group Owner etc has been circulating around for weeks but none of them were true.
It looks as if the fate of the Honda team is sealed when just weeks before the 1st 2009 GP were to start, it was announced that Team Boss, Ross Brawn is the new owner!
The team was renamed from Honda to Brawn and given an overhauled look. The white and green liveries changed to a simple white and black one.
And just a week before F1 starts, they confirmed Virgin Group as their sponsor for 2009 (yeah!) and it seems like the budget has already been set for the whole year so whew! What a sigh of relief and boost for the team:)
Today marks the first qualifying for F1 and it was no surprise that both Brawn drivers makes the first 2 qualifying since favourable reports have been made once Brawn started testing on the strips. Its Buttons for pole and Barichello for 2nd.
Discussions with a friend showed that we were both eager to see drivers pitting their skills with each other rather then the constructors pitting their big budgets against each other.
So, its ON WITH THE SHOW tomorrow for the Melbourne GP!
Oh, incidentily Ferrari starts on 7th (Massa) and 9th (Raikkonen) tomorrow while McLaren starts 14th (Kovalainen) and 15th (Hamilton) .
Now that’s why I say the sport is interesting hehehe. Stay tuned!
