Opera

I was doing some blog reviewing of some of my friends...
I came across 1 with very nice title but the content looks weird weird. Make no sense, but got sense.
Err... u all go n look lor. mingde1616116.blogspot.com entitle something like Art of War...

Anyway, i went for opera class. Actually i no need to go 1 but i got nothing to do at home.

When I got there, teacher asking how come i dont go yesterday. OMG, i tot i told her yrs ago... Then she asked "Hee Lay, Mingde ah. 29 Ho Ni Bay Sai Lai Ah?" Then she said she got many roles for me... Eg. Monk, Servant and MAID!
My eyes suddenly become BIG... Monk ok lah. the monk script is out. only 2 lines.
Servant, ok lah cos no line mah. Then MAID, she want me to b MAID leh! OMG! ok lor. maid maid lor... Juz dont ask my friends to come watch... Those bo liao ppl will comment abt it during every alumni meetings... N will start asking me do funny things during 20th anniversary carnvial...
Sob sob... how i know they performing tat day... Else i will change school...
Sian... This could b my last performance before my exam break leh...

At 5pm, 2 ladies escort me to Tampines. Er... I escort 2 ladies to Tampines. Wat? U saw 3 ladies with me? O... The other 1 is immaterial. Of cos lah, include auntie in for wat? Dont look at me.

Well... There is a Xiang Ju performance there. Before this, i was thinking of which to watch. Some of my troupe mates are in Braddell Height. But because i think my mom is also there, so i went Tampines. :P (As if...)

I was sitting at the same place where i sat when i watch Fan Li Hua on Christmas Eve.
Co-incident?
Its the first time i watching Xiang Ju. I tot it might b like Kun or Jing where the keys r high but no leh... A bit like normal talking.
I wanted to comment generally but some1 specially wants individual comment.

We came late. Only after the show start, i think we missed 5-10 min of the show.
I found that the 2 guards at the gate stopping the real prince consort was quite good... Hopefully i can copy them if there is a replay of Qian Nv You Hun where my role is a coffin seller. A bit kong kong type...

The mother of prince consort was not bad also. She is able to capture some expression of the character esp in e scene whereby she found that the consort fell down the cliff.

The Prince Consort acted for 2 roles, consort and consort's brother. Poor actor... Change so many sets of clothes... E roles was so different. A scholar consort and a brother with few learnings.

The Princess is another main lead with many lines. I would say she did quite well but failed to get some of the expression right. She could looked a bit more pitiful... Maybe drop a few tears esp in the last scene when the real consort is executed.

The Minister of Punishment's shoe is very high. :P
The maid, Xiao Hui, quite pretty :P

Hey! I must say something abt all the main lead and supporting lead right? Nothing much to comment so keep short lah. I know i know... u wanna say i 色鬼. Aiya... I used to it liao lah...

But there are 2 things which i really wanted to comment...
1) I think the timing of lighting is not very good. It was switched off before the scene end.
2) the translation is a bit off from wat was said by the actors. But its immaterial cos they might forgot the lines or change line no change translation. But wat i dont like is WHY IS THE WORD MAJESTY spelled as His majesty not His Majesty?
Cambridge Oxford Dictionary never spell majesty with a small M unless its abit something grand.

Y i so pandan abt Majesty? Cos my blog 1616116 = Majesty is u know how to decode this code for my birthday.

Anyway, after e show. The performers walked down the stage to thank the audience. N Xiujuan actually call me KongMing. OMG... Kongming is my new nick wef from 1/1/06.
Now i thinking of changing my 号 from 子敬 to 孔明。 But by doing so, i disrespect 诸葛亮.

I log online at 12am. Guess wat! AC, one of the actors, actually got home and blogged before me!
