ISA Night

Alright, I know this post is a little late, but better late than never I guess.

We had International Student Association (ISA) Night on Friday, and it was a big hit. Guess what, this lazy boy here actually took the effort to train and rehearse to put together a performance! The best part, we only use 2 days to choreograph and think of what moves to use! In the end, we put together a piece of martial art show, titled don't cry over spilled milk.



Anyway, let that be the last of this post. I shall introduce and give my comments to every performance of the night. Pictures, here they come!



First up, the opening show -- lion dance performance!! Quite nice and simple, though it would be great if there were poles and strings for higher altitude performance. But it was great anyhow.







Next, indian dance. She really know how to dance, but, yes, a big huge BUT, she danced too long. It got boring in the end, maybe it is because I don't know how to appreciate it. But 5 minutes of solo dance? Hmm...




Next, a Malaysian in Malay suit singing a Swedish song in English using a Hawaiian guitar, ukulele. His name, Gan Jia Hao. I must say, he is a talent! Great job!




Sleeping already? Come over here, let me slap you with my thousand hands! The next performance is Qian Shou Guan Yin, or thousand hands goddess of mercy. Not too bad, but I heard complains that they were actually counting the moves till it was audible to the spectators. I guess it was way too hard to perfectly choreograph it without counting!


Anyway, this performance reminds me of my religion class I took in INTI. My group did a presentation about the Goddess of Mercy as well, and we finished off the presentation with a similiar show -- the thousand hands. Aaron was the front man, and he finished it off with a power line -- what are you laughing at? You want me to slap you with my thousand hands? Ahh... Those good old times.




Since you are awake, I present you an Indonesian dance. The organizers try to make the shows consistent in time, so most performance is around 5 minutes, which, I must say, doesn't work well for dances! Same as the first dance, this is way too long even though she can dance really well.



Ah, I see your head drooping. Let me set you to dreamland by playing my flute. There you go, off to see zhou gong.






Oh you naughty kid, sleep and dream of girls dancing?! The power of subconscious mind, naughty you!





Oh, feeling shy? Off to Bollywood? Hold on a minute, you are thinking of stripping a girl while she's dancing?! OMG! It's a guy?! My my, that was freakey!

Come here and allow me to wake you up buy spilling milk on you! Let's fight!

It's kinda troublesome to upload the video, so I guess if you want the video then come and get it from me. =)

lright, peace out. Time for dancing again. Not bad, quite nicely choreographed.

Since there's a good dance, let's keep the ball rolling with another dancing performance!

Alright, enough of dancing. Let's get some martial art again. This time, wushu by Jeremy! Have you seen someone actually performing wushu live? Well, I have! It was great!

Same thing, get the video from me if you want.

Hey hey, all fighting and dancing? Don't you guys know how to read? Let me present you with a poem... Too bad, all I heard really was just some mumbling from a piece of paper, not convincing enough. Good try though.





Alright, enough of literacy, after all, we are here to escape from studies, right? Let the locals strutt their stuffs! Same thing, too long. This time, the girl was a little tired in the end as well. Not bad though.





Ok, let's take a breather and listen to some soothing music. Performed by Sam from Thailand, I must say it was really soothing, and it does sound like Buddhist temple music! Great, but too long as well. =(





Alright, let's see some dancing again. Enjoyed?


Didn't? No no, you are lying. These emcees are doing a great job!! Don't you think so?





Alright, time to end. Let's close the night and head for dinner with a fashion show! Hip hip hoorah!

Sorry, a little potong stim, but get the video from me if you want. =)

PROcrastinator

Yes, I know this is quite a cliche topic, but I can't help but to rant something about this here. I have to admit, I am quite a procrastinator. A PRO(fessional)crastinator indeed!

Why am I saying that? Well, your dumb kiddo here actually forgotten to hand in his assignment!!

Yes people, we need to hand in IS 44 assignment online, and the deadline is at 9pm, Thursday. I actually completed the assignment on Monday, but didn't hand it in because I thought it may need some changes some where, and also purely I want to hand it in at the last minute possible.

Guess what? Actuarial Evening was on Thursday night. I was so caught up with all the preparation for the evening, attended the event all suited up, and came back well before 9pm as the event end at 7pm. But, this kiddo here actually went and chilled out in a friend's room, too lazy to walk all the way back to his room, and totally forgotten about the assignment.

At roughly 11pm, he happened to check the assignment website aka Blackboard, realized he has a quiz to take, and suddenly realized he haven't hand in his assignment. The link to hand in the assignment was long gone, and along with it goes the 15 marks. All he could do? Slap and laugh and blame himself for his stupidity. And because he scored a big fat 0, the class average dropped to 11 out of 15. What a b*^%$@#!

Well, maybe he has learnt his lesson this time, and will hand in his assignment well before the due date next time. But then again, he is so lazy that this post is actually 2 days late. Wonderful side of life, isn't it?

Want to see him all suited up for Actuarial Evening?

Never mind the slippers and shoes, he's in someone else's room.

There you go! Look at his face and you will know he is lazy. It is written all over his face, isn't it?

Another month to Paper FM/2, and he is still procrastinating. Can some body come and wake him up from his bed, and give him a big slap on the face? No? Zzzzzzzzzz...

On a side note, the moon here on the fifteen day of the eight month on the lunar calendar is as bright as the street lights! The moon appear bigger and brighter here than in Malaysia.

20.07.2007

Nice date eh? I had my hair cut and had my AUP Ball 2007 on that day, which by the time I post this, I can say it's yesterday.

I went to A Cut Above to get my hair done, and roughly 6 inches of hair shrank to 1 inch!! My my, what a change! My head feels a hundred pounds lighther. -.-''' Guess what? I spend RM13 for every inch I cut of my hair! The highest so far that I have ever paid for my hair. W. T. F.

I haven't got any pictures of the ball yet, so you can't see how the ball looks like, and how freaking short my hair is. =p That's the wonder of hiding behind the wall of anonimity on the web, isn't it?

Anyway, I would say the ball was great, eventhough it lacked a little on the organization. Girls in dress really showcase their beauty eh? Everyone looks so glam up and pretty on the night, those who already look pretty in T-shirts and jeans look even prettier, I must say.

I particularly like the male emcee's style. Eventhough he took a little time to warm up, his spontaneous reactions and comments was da bomb! And great job done by our very own DJ Jason, who jammed up some cool mixes to get the crowd shaking and grinding. Oops! Is this supposed to be a college ball or a clubbing party? I guess everyone loosen up towards the end. =p Too bad I sprained my ankle and couldn't really join the crowd. It was fun soaking up the atmosphere from the side though.

High school gathering cum farewell cum birthday party coming up next, or rather in a few hours time. Yet, I am still here ranting about yesterday, even without any pictures to show. How lifeless I can be eh? Gotta run!
