High 翻天!

Feeling so high that the sky flipped! The last concert I went to was to the Franz Ferdinand concert two years ago. After hearing about their previous concert, I was looking forward to a very high Mayday 五月天 show!

We were seated at PB Row 24. I was there with Ah Fa and my girlfriend. Just before the start of the concert.



Then the lights went out and the crowd went wild!


Four troopers came rappelling from the indoor stadium roof!


Then the band made their appearance! Hanging down from high above!


石头 appeared solo with his guitar, like the God of Guitar.


While the rest of the band made their entrance on the moving platform stage.


And the rock concert began!


From the very first minute to the last, everyone were waving their light sticks and jumping with the rhythm. 怪兽 and 石头 jamming away!



Dueling each other at the top of the moving platform!



A close up of 怪兽!



And 石头!



阿信!



Then the crowd got even more high when they started running at the side platform to interact with the audience! Argh! I was so near yet so far!



Each of the band members were introduced! Guan You, the quiet drummer, spoke to the crowd!



怪兽 had the words "新加坡" Singapore drawn on his arms! Singapore was the first stop of their return tour before they start to work on their new album. The crowd definitely didn't disappoint them!





The crowd went super wild when the band led everyone in the L.O.V.E dance!








As they went on and on, the crowd never got tired! Then the band thanked the sponsors for the concert. The way 石头 pronounced the English names was really funny!


And then it was time for the SOLOS!






Even the keyboardist got the chance to show off his skills!


The band also celebrated Masa's birthday during the concert!




The band bowed and thanked the fans during the first ending.


After which they came back for the encore! The center stage came down like UFO as everyone chanted the band's name and waited eagerly for their reappearance!




And this is something special for my sis. She was that near to 阿信!


The concert was really amazing! One of the best I had been. Almost every single song brought back memories of hostel life during the uni-days. Till next year, I will probably go for their concert again.

The Bridal Dowry.

The delivery of dowry ( 送嫁妆 ) is another important custom. It represents parent's effort for her daughter to have a good life after marriage and prepare her with the necessities for being a good wife. I am amazed by some of the things included in the dowry. Of course, in our modern living, we will not be using some of those things... Nevertheless, I think it is all good to have them, as each item carries a good meaning for our blissful marriage. :-)

Resolutions 2012.

While my one-year-old is going for his first steps, I am also learning to walk (again). 2011 was full of ups and downs.  I was promoted for the 2nd time in my first job. Not fantastic but not bad either after six years. The challenging issues justifies for the few more dollars increment to the stipend. Murphy is my good friend. With only the final milestone left, I hope to overcome all odds and pull the rabbit outta the hat in 2012! If I am lucky, I may run another project.  For the consecutive year, I expended all my medical leave. After hearing my story, some may say 父爱是伟大的. Some may think I was pure clumsy. As my son likes to watch basketball playing, I decided to show him how to do it myself. At first I felt good, I got it plenty of shots. Unfortunately, I broke my ACL while chasing after the ball. It has been two months and my knee is still weak and hurts occasionally. I plan to go for surgery in 2012, while performing the balancing act of pulling the rabbit and recup...

The Last 24 Hours, Twenty-Twelve.

It is becoming a tradition. This is the fourth time for me. This year, two new companions joined me for this journey in the last 24 hours of 2012. As usual, is only for a few hours in the afternoon. But I like the sound of it, "last 24 hours".  It started out in 2008 for me, a ala    Eye é City . For the record, it was another rainy new year's eve. We started our journey at Thian Hock Keng, Amoy Street and ended at Raffles City Shopping Centre. It was interesting for me as it was my first time to Thian Hock Keng. This year, instead of posting the photos here, I have uploaded them to my Flickr account . The photos look better there as I don't have to reduce the size of the photos for this blog. I will re-edit the past photos and upload them as well when I am free. Who will join me next year? You can sign up now!
