Busy Weekends
Zhang Dong Liang (Nicholas Teo) Concert
Li Xiang bought the S$98 ticket to the Zhang Dong Liang Concert as there is a 10% discount from SISTIC. Apart from there, I think that SISTIC ticketing is a rip off. They increase their surcharge from $2 to $3 and apart from that, I have to pay handling charges. This is so ridiculous. This is what happen in Singapore when there is a monopoly. Just look at the fares for public transport, they keep increasing and increasing and we cannot do anything about it but to suck our own thumb.
Putting the price aside, the concert was fantastic, I think it is the best concert I have been to so far (I have been to only 3). The location is good, it is at Suntec Convention Center. The lighting is good. There is 2 screen projection on the left and right side with transition when switching to in-between cameras. There is even lyrics on the screen when he sang the song. I like concert when there is some talking and interaction rather than just pure singing. Zhang Dong Liang did just that by sharing us his life story including pictures of him when he is young projected on the screen.
Thumbs up for him!
Sex And The City
I have no idea why some people do not like the movie version. I have watched all the 6 seasons of Sex and the City and personally I find the movie is as great as well. Louis Vuitton, Prada and Versace are some of the labels you can see throughout the show. New York FTW!
The Chronicles Of Narnia: Prince Caspian
Li Xiang didn’t like this movie, but personally I find it not bad, I think it is even better than the first installment, The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe. The fight scenes were better than the first but come no where close to the ones found in Lord of The Rings. This movie is about 2 hours and 30 minutes, it is good to go to the loo before the show. The 3rd installment, The Voyage of the Dawn Treader, and the 4th installment, The Silver Chair, will be filmed by another director according to Wikipedia.
I am going to catch Kung Fu Panda next, hear it is quite good.
Mystery Shopper
Li Xiang and I applied for the Mystery Shopper job through her ex-colleague for fun. The pay is really very little, S$8 for every feedback we submit. Our weekends for June and July will be burned by this job, but nevertheless it is just for the experience (just to make myself happier).
