Ho Ho Ho
Went out yesterday, caught The History of Violence, didn't really like the show a lot.. The way the show twisted was kinda like trying to squeeze as much in as possible, just didn't flow very well i guess. Supposed to catch Pride & Prejudice but the 3.50 pm show was full house. Madness, all these kids on holidays. Even the carpark was soo full. Then did christmas shopping, almost completed, would have completed it yesterday if not for my near fainting spell. Came down with urinary tract infection & then somehow along the way my sides were hurting like hell. It hurt to the point where i had trouble breathing, fainting definitely seemed like a very good option. But after struggling for some time, when i got into the car, in less than 10 minutes i felt better.. Damnit. Still short of 4 presents. But we accomplished quite a number of presents. Yay. A few more gift wraps, and presents and i'm ready to be santarina. Spent a lot this year, craziness. Still waiting for my VS package from US to arrive. Can't wait!
Caught Hope Street: Reconstructed, a performance put up by our dance school, the dance performance itself was good, but the changeover between scenes left a lot more to be desired. Lack of explanation for why the lights were turned on abruptly, the lighting could have been handled better, timing by a few of the dancers were a little off at times, the use of cartoons to keep the audience entertained while the dancers changed was a good idea initially, until you realise that what the cartoons showed totally had no link with the next dance, not very good. Performance by Mr Shh, was good til the dance became some random filler with dance moves that your 3 yr old cousin could do. But there was a really cool dance where they started off with a sofa in the centre of the stage and then made it seem like the dancers were watching the news, then the sofa was rotated to face the audience, then the freeze mode was off and the dancers came to live. Very symbolic and meaningful.
Got a package of hershey's kisses & 2 candy canes from jonathan. Hehe, yay!
