i wonder why it's called aristal. it sounds like nothing i have ever seen or heard before. anyway, i have to say that the dance performances were not bad, especially the dances by chinese dance. but well before the dance night, the 4 of us, edwyn sihui and heng da, met up with much calamity. we were really down on our luck. first, it's the retarded cab-ing experience. we were desperately hailing a cab in a bid to reach UCC on time, only to helplessly see countless taxis whiz pass us, the red "hired" LED word staring at us. fortunately, we still managed to make it on time with a ride on jiaying's mum car :) the most amazing thing was that we managed to squeeze, erm, 9 people in the car? jiaying was virtually sitting on erm, eh, i cant rmb who's lap. i was sandwiched between 2 people, my butt barely sitting on the seat. nevertheless, we reached UCC safely. we also realised that the distance of UCC from clementi mrt is rather large, to think we even contemplated walking there =s we'll look like a bunch of dogs walking. i think heng da said something like that. it was darn hilarious.

UCC was flooded with waves and waves of NJ people. many queues were snaking across the hall lobby, took quite a while to enter the concert hall. i have to say it's really not bad, the seats were quite comfortable. the only qualms i had was the large, bulky camera directly blocking my line of sight. AND TO THINK I PAID 15 BUCKS FOR THE SEAT. fortunately, i moved down a row, and things got better. i guess the cameraman was rather indecisive as he kept removing the camera and then placing the cam back to its tripod stand again. argh. irritating. edwyn was rather rude to mr camera man, but, the camera man was equally rude. he was making some strange finger signals, maybe he thought edwyn was deaf. but hahaha. such foul incidence do happen occasionally eh?

the dance performnace, as i have briefly commented above, was really not bad. the most synchronised and sleekest moves were by the chinese dance group. performances by the western dance was another one i was looking forward to. but hmmm, i will still say i prefer chinese dance. i hope no one from western dance sees this. hehe. dont beat me up. malay dance was rather, erm, boring. perhaps, it's just because i cant appreciate malay dance. the way they dance can be quite monotonous, so i took that time to talk to jing tat, who was sitting to my left. indian dance was more vibrant, as compared to malay dance. the songs were more attractive too.

after the performances, we decided to have supper at holland v. yea, i'm not very sure what happened la, but some of us took a particular long time to decide on going or not. eventually, all of us went. cept karwai, who had band early today. ate at crystal jade, had some noodles. though the price was a little higher than those of food centres, the noodles were considerably better tasting. so, no qualms man! =)

the stayover was supposedly to be more exciting, but heng da pangsehed. anitha fell sick, while edwyn couldnt make it due to his mum tight reins on him. poor edwyn, his mood was destroyed after his mum adamently refused his request to stayover. so in the end, that leaves me yawen and sihui. anyway, it was rather fun la. okay, fun as in not playing games, but talking about stuffs that are happening around us.

i've come to the realisation that people around me are complicated. so many things happened in a short span of time. hmmm. okay, maybe i shall blog about that some time later.
