There is something about musicals that entices me. Not too sure what it is, but if it is produced lavishly, and with it having a good story line within it, it would be exceptional. Once watched, it would eventually stay in my mind forever. Maybe it's the music that I was interested in, maybe it's the whole package. Not too sure which, but I am very certain I have this special interests in musicals/broadways.

Not an expert to tell the difference between musicals and broadways. But I know I can't watch Operas. Operas are just not my thing. I can never understand what they are trying to tell. At least with musicals, we have a story line, with addition of music and probably good choreos along with it.

What really captures my interest would be the genre whereby the girls wear skimpy outfits yet have powerful vocals in their performances. For one, would be Moulin Rouge. I honestly CANNOT remember what the story line was, but whatever music that was in it, I could remember, maybe with muffled lyrics, cause I was really young then, but I remember that movie was the one that I rememebered most. And this was back in... 2001. It was probably deemed as inappropriate for me to watch then, with all those girls in skimpy revealing outfits prancing around into guys or somesort. REALLY, I cannot remember what the movie was, all I remember was the whole movie was dark, and it was in some place, and the main actor was a writer and the main actress was a part of the skimpy dressed performers who dies in the end. I really need to rewatch this movie someday. HAHAHA

I AM VERY SURE that my interest in musical sparked from there. From then on, I would be extremely excited whenever a musical-like-film hits the cinemas. Would try my best to get to those movies, but I am very sure I have missed a whole chunk of it, and it probably wasn't as good. HAHA Some movies were too focused on the emotions while others were too focused on the music, thus there never really was a spectacular one... yet? Dreamgirls was a big hit though! So was Burlesque, but somehow, it didn't give that same impression as I did with Moulin Rouge. :O Though honestly, I have no memory of the story line, all I remember is the music from that movie. HAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHA

It was just this year that I spent quite a sum of money, to watch a Broadway show, 'Wicked'. It was one of the famous broadway shows in the States and they were there in Singapore when me and my friend were there. Seemingly it was a one-shot thing, I figured that it would be worth it to spend about 200 Singapore dollars on the show. It is alot, I am aware. But we went ahead with it. It was somesort of a dream come true when I was there watching it. IT WAS PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST EXPERIENCE EVER! The story line was perfectly pieced with the music and choroes. SUPER LOVE!!!! :D

heh. I just felt like talking about it. :P
It's Friday today! Have got two essys due next week and I am having troubles with them. Am not the kind of person who does academic writing properly. Probably because I have been to used to writing informally and casually, ACADEMIC writing doesn't work for me. I know I should be working on improving it, but I also know that it could actually change my writing habits altogether. This actually happened last year. Which is scaring the crap out of me, just in case I would actually elapse back into that phase again. WHICH CAN BE SCARY. I scared myself with my own writing. HAHAHAHAHHA :P

There's nothing going on about these days. More on the studying side and relaxing a little more. Had been sick for the past whole week. Oh, the joy.

Ah yes! I can tell you about the magical wonders of the heater! HAHAHHAHAHA!

As you may or may not know, it is closing to winter here. Just as my brother left back for Malaysia, it started getting extremely colder, with the addition of rain, it wasn't a pleasant feeling at all. Almost felt like the Sun and Heat had followed my brother back to Malaysia, everybody back there seem to be complaining about how hot it is in Malaysia now. D:
After spending the day out in the chilly cold weather, with the rain spilling on our heads for the whole day, returning home to the nicely heated home, it felt kinda nice. Though my head seemed to be disagreeing with me as much as it could. It seems like the sudden change of temperature from extremely cold to HOT was a little too much for my head to handle for now. Not sure how am I going to survive WINTER here, really. Fingers crossed everything will be alright. :)

AM SO EXCITED THAT I WILL BE HOME IN ANOTHER TWO MONTHS TIME!!! :DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD
anyone coming to pick me up? :O
