Ya, so the plane didn't crash and I am here safe and sound with my mother, in Aunty Kim Lean's place.

And oh, I feel like going home already. Surprise surprise! How fast is that? Hahaha...

Am actually thinking of not studying here altogether. Gah. But I suppose that feeling will disappear soon. :(

Internet here is rather slow. So blog next time. Ta.

Finally I have something more meaningful to blog about.

My dad passed me two tickets and told me to 'kau-tim' them. So I dragged my brother to this Chan Wa School 90th Anniversary Dinner. 90 years already wei~ but not very significant to me anyway. I agreed to go there because our school band was one of the performers too.

The sky was very nice that day. This picture was taken by my brother with his phone. Nice right? :)

We were late that night. Everyone was already seated when we walked in. Don't care la, we go also good enough already. :P Then we were seated right in front near the stage, two tables away from the amplifiers. So you can roughly imagine how terrible my ears were. :( Poor ears. I actually saw my Sejarah Teacher putting tissues into her ears!! And I could not resist myself to laugh at her. And SHE SAW ME LAUGHING, and she smiled back at me. Damn malu can.

On the whole, the performance by the students were all right. Not bad already, especially those small little kids. So adorable jumping around on the stage.

The only sucky thing about the night was the emcee and the person deliver speeches. How could you ever say things like the Deputy Education Minister being busy-body (多事) when you are actually trying to say that he's busy and has a lot of things to do (很多事情要办). And how could you say things like the Minister should go back and think about his actions for having bad time management (since he didn't make it to come for the dinner) Things like these made me feel rather malu ok... like could you please prepare your speech, pass it to your secretary or someone to check your speech before delivering to like thousand over audience?? At least make use of the dictionary and check and see if the words can be simplified, and after simplifying will it still mean the same thing. Sigh.

Oh and the Emcee. The last performance was a group song to be sung by all the PIBG people and so on. They took quite some time to set up the whole karaoke thing for them. So as an emcee, it would be normal if you say things to make the whole atmosphere less tense right. But instead of saying things like "Oh, there is some technical problem, maybe they are working it out so that the whole thing would be perfect later on"; she said, "That's very weird, throughout the whole night, all the performance went very smoothly, until your turn to perform."

Like what is she supposed to mean??? You call yourself a teacher and you talk like this??? tsk tsk tsk.

Ok. Enough of rantings. Sekali one of them googled and came to my site and read all these then I don't know how already. :( But what I said was true ok... In these kinda occasions, it's always better to be more prepared and deliver a better speech can. Like how my lecturers always say, "Don't ever make people feel that you are stupid."

So, if you can't deliver a proper speech, get someone to prepare a whole essay before you go on stage.

Ok, let the pictures do the talking.

Opening Ceremony of the night. (a.k.a. flooding the cake with saliva. :( )

Erm...some Thai dance by Chan Wa Primary School kids.

My junior!! (I don't know who is he though) He sang two songs for the night.

My band juniors!!!! I feel so old I tell you...I don't even know a single person on stage. Sigh.

More pictures of the band.

And this medley conducted by this guy conductor wearing an oversized tuxedo. I seriously think that Seremban people is malnutrition. Why are 80% of the guys I saw that night (yes, including uncles) shorter than me??? :(

Heheh...the cellist. I think this is the best picture of the night I have taken. My camera is starting to give me trouble. Non of the pictures turned out real nice. Sigh.

Poem recitation. I think I was livelier last time when I recited. :P At least we moved about on stage and we had more people. :P :P

And the very energetic Primary School Kids' dance. Damn cute. There were like so many cameras flooding the front of the hall during this performance. But then again, there were also like 50 of them kids on stage for this dance.

Primary school kids singing love song is such a no-no. Their voice is really nice, but there is zero interaction between the both of them. :( Like both of them went up on stage from different sides, and they didn't even care about each other when they sing. But, on the plus point, they sang Jay Chou's song, and it turned out pretty well.. for a primary school's standard. :)

Chan Wa High School Wu Shu performance. I remembered my junior represented Negeri Sembilan for SUKMA. and now...I see my super super juniors performing on stage. Time flies. Time flies. Sigh.

Chan Wa Primary School Choir. Quote brother, "Whoa Primary School Choir all same tone oni one hor...girls and guys all same voice oni." Which was quite true...since all the microphones were at the soprano singers.

I forgot what song he sang. But his voice is really nice. :)

Chan Wa High School Kelab Tarian.

Er...modern dance from some dance studio. Reminds me of Racken Force. (though technically very different la...) maybe it's the colours.

And the finale song. Which was so seriously unprepared. I would cry if I was there up on stage.

Food was...not good. I am sorry to be so straight forward but the food was really not good. :( :( I went home with an unsatisfied stomach but nevertheless... the performance was good. :) *thumbs up to CWB!!*

With that, my brother and I walked to our car which was parked like God-knows-how-many-kilometers-away and went home to sleeeeeep.

Maybe I'll be able bring my kids along for Chan Wa's 100th Anniversary Dinner in ten years' time. :P
