(0 ) 23:53 Training today was crappy. I don't even want to think about it because next week is competition already. And mother doesn't want me to continue shooting, and I've promised her time and again that I'll stop after this competition. I can't say no. I just can't.
Anyway, the most exciting thing of the year (so far) was going to the 伍家辉 + Eric Ng + Ngak concert at the Esplanade Recital Studio today. It was a very small affair, and there were about say 100+ people. I went for the 7.30pm show although the 10.30pm one would have been much nicer, but I didn't want to come home too late.
But it doesn't matter, because it was a 2 hour auralfest, and I enjoyed every note that they played. In case you guys don't know, 伍家辉 is the guy who sang 一人一半 for Royston Tan's 881.
Those guys are seriously damn talented. I like how intimate the whole "concert" was. I don't really know what to call it. They used the word "showcase", so I guess I shall follow suit. Eric Ng did most of the talking, and he spoke in English most of the time, despite it being part of the HuaYi festival and him and Ngak being the spokespeople for the 华语 Cool campaign, LOL.
Saw a few celebrities. I'm sure there are more, it's just that I didn't see them/don't recognise them. Lots of 圈内人 and people in the music scene in the audience I think. Saw in particular Chong Qing (that 933 DJ) and Chew Chor Meng's family. His two daughters are SOOOOO cute! :D
Sigh. I'm so in the holiday mood still. I can't believe tomorrow is Sunday already and then I have to go to school on Monday. Let's not go there. I have so much work to do, I don't know why I didn't keep my Sunday free so that I can get down to it. Sadly, I'll be out the whole day. Sometimes I wish that I can just hole myself up at home without having a social stigma being attached to it. So I'm a closet anti-social. Is that an oxymoron?
