Kudos to Performing Arts!

24th July 2010

I was informed by my very good friend, Brandon that Ngee Ann Polytechinic would be holding a Performing Arts event at lib@esplanade. As a very active person who loves goodies & arts, i went to give him my greatest support by spending around 5 hours there. Loads of games and activities are planned by the organisers solely by NP.

Music. Dance. Arts. love'em.

Brandon and Me. As usual, i love his haircut. And we are going to make full use of the cash vouchers which we got for one of the most recognised hair salon, Ooosh! Excited! oh, and couldnt forget about Soup Spoon.

These are the awesome sponsers who made the goodie bags so special. And i won 15bucks of cash vouchers to spend at SCAPE!.

Had my brunch at the esplanade cafe. I love the chicken fillet sandwich with cranberry! love the flavour!

This is the passport for the games. I named it " Bible to Goodies"


There were 4 sections of the games i must complete. Once completed, i will get my goodie bag!

1.) Music
I got to pick up an album, listen to the section of the music and guess the title of the songs.
Apprently, among the 9 albums, i only know Maria Carey, Chris Daughtry, Ryan Cabera and Michael Buble. Apparently, i feel that Chris's album is best because i have downloaded all thier songs. And Brandon guess correctly!

2.)Dance
I have to watch a video of a lady dancing and just copy her moves. So poor Brandon, i got to drag him along. wahahaha.
The dance section is easy. Damn easy for both of us.
Maybe i should suggest them to do Salsa. ROFL

3.)Theatre

OH, this is my favourite section! Because i got to choose my favourite script " Toy Story" and played it out. I become Woody, and Brandon is Buzz. Soon, there were too many characters appearing, we switched to "Beauty and the Beast".

of course, i am the beauty and he is the beast.

It was so much fun. Love to be in character.

4.)Film
We were blindfolded and being led by 2 ladies into a movie screening room. A film will be played and we have to guess the scene and who are the characters. Turned out the film is " Lord of the Rings". To be honest, i dont even watch it once. But one of them got it right.

Finally i got all 4 stations stamped, time for my goodie bag! yippe!


PERFORMANCES.

I miss being a percussionist during the RP days.

A really good singer with such a sweet voice; Zahirah. Check out her fb/twitter! Just type her name and you got to listen her beautiful works!

Band: SavingSomeone

Love the energy they gave. The vocalist has a unique voice and the rest of the bands can be able to blend in very well with thier solo talents!

Band: Deputy Siren.

i love the vocalist because her high notes are just right in ears, not too harsh. And i love the "drums" which they are playing. I forgot the name of it, but with that, it brings up the whole band together.

One of the most unforgettable experience which i had. Adelyn Koh, 8 years old and visually impared pianist. A question was asked to her and that touch me a lot.

Qns: what is the first thing you wanna see if you regain your eyesight.

Ans: Myself, because I wanna see how i look like.

Her passion and talent for music has really pushed me further to work even harder because i believe that anyone can make a difference.

Alaric Tay was invited to this event as a celebrity guest. Actually i got to be involve in the current show NOOSE at about 2010. The story is about National Day and i got to be interviewed by him. He is a really inspirational guy and i am really comfortable filming with him even for 5 mins! Really looking forward to his upcoming projects and work with him.

This is really interesting.

The person who is blindfolded has to follow the instructions of thier friends and draw out the given picture. And the results are super fun.

JOSHUA SIMON. Apologies that i really dont recognise him. But i was introduced by Brandon when i was asking about him. When i first listen to his voice, i love the way he twist his tone and melodies. Then i realise that he is really well-known for his creativity and talent!

Brandon and his friend. Omg, i love her hair. SHAVE one side! Just like Adam Lambert! wee~!

(as you can see, from my (!), i enjoyed the event super much!)

Brandon and Josua. They knew each other for a long time already.

So i decided to ask him to take a picture with me. Very honoured.

I decided to end this post with this art pieces which i spotted when i left Esplanade. Life is full of memories. Your eyes are just like a CAMERA. I believe that you can have a choice whether to click ans save the memory down, or just delete it(but with trials left behind). Happiness is in everyone's hand. And we should be responsible for our own actions and beliefs. Don't give up in your love and passion even though people will talk sh*t about you.

Believe in it and OWN it.
