Originally a broadway production, adepted by a local stage organization, Staring Fei Xiang(kris Phillips) and many other local and foreign artists, comes CABARET: The Musical!
The story is about the Nazis begining their rise to power in Germany in the late 1920s, American writer Clifford Bradshaw visits Berlin. He meets this German who helped him find a place to stay and he visits the sleazy Kit Kat Club and meets an English singer, Sally Bowles. The writer and singer soon fall in love. Meanwhile, Clifford's elderly landlord gets engaged to a Jewish greengrocer, given the increasing influence of the Nazis, it's not an easy decision to make. Soon, Clifford discovers that he has been inadvertently helping the Nazis by delivering packages to Paris for his German friend. Clifford ends up deciding to return to the United States but Sally decides to remain in Berlin...
Today(yesterday) I was at the Esplanade watching the musical. It was pretty good, it's like a show within show. There's this ''Master of Ceremonies'' that comes out here and there, singing us what's gonna happen or what had happened. The tunes are nice. Overall, the show was good, but I was hoping for more drama but it didn't happen...

First formal presentation...
I've been busy lately... Projects, presentations, projects, projects, test, test, TEST, TEST!!! It just goes on like its never gonna end. But I'll always come up with something last minute...so no worries yet...
OK...now to the topic, first formal presentation in school, everyone looks smart in formal, but some girls look rather eh...''auntie''...LOL...just joking. Anyway, we were given two topics to present. First, ''The best person for a best friend'', second, ''My self-esteem''. I chose the second one. I started off trambling and I stammer here and there. No...not only me, some of my classmate too... others were pretty steady... I only became alittle bit smoother towards the end.
At the end of everyone's presentation, the teacher show us the comment she wrote while we were presenting. I got back mine and I got six lines of comments three of which are good, three are not so good. Anyway, here's a picture of everyone's back view in formal...

Germany got 3rd!
Dispite the defeat from the Italians, the Germans stand strong against the portuguese. The results, 3-0 and Germany got third placing in the World Cup.
I think this' one of the more exciting match, its fast-pase, not boring at all. It gets even more exciting if you watch it with your friends...

Ridicules
I believe I said something that made my classmates laught their asses out. It was friday, while we were waiting for entrance for Fan Wei Qi's campus concert. I said something like ''pi ka chng''(smell my ass)when my classmate set down, her head was just behind a guy's ass. Also, ''pi ka chng'' sounds very similar to ''pikachu''.
Earlier that day, I did a very ridicule and peculiar title translation of ''Pirates of the Carribean:Dead Man's Chest''. I said something like ‘加勒比海的海涛之死掉的人的宝箱’, my classmates just went -_||| awhile and then laugh non-stop(yeah I know, I exaggerate this part alittle)...

History...
Even since the dawn of men, the pre-historic people to Homo-sapiens. People have been making achivement every now and then, be it monumental or pygmy, it had contributed to many things that had happen good or bad. People grew from small group to community to towns and city to country and to empire.
History became myth and myth made history, the Greeks, the Mayans, the Egyptians, the Chinese.
Fuck...I got nothing to write, so I wrote this nonsence...

Germany lost...
It's only 2 minutes away from the penalty shootout, the Germans had let their guards down, the Italian attacks and score very closely apon the pole. All the Germans were deliriously counter-attacking, they left their grounds defendless, giving the Italian another chance to strike again. By just a simple flop, they score again, making two goals in the last 2 minutes!I was so sad after the German lost the match and I cry myself to sleep...again...

Yet another ramdom thoughts...
Sometimes, people just can't do the things they wanted to. Some people always wanted to be a sportsman but they can't really do it. They try hard, the most is they'll be a ok player, they'll never be the best. Maybe, it's their mentality that tells them they have no talent. Whenever, their friends ask him to go play sports, he will be the lease to play or should I say he wants to be the lease, most of the time he'll sit there and think how bad he is at that sport...

GO Germany!!! All the way!!!
Germany won over Argentina in the first quarter final match of the FIFA World Cup by penalty!! YAY!! The Germans had a weak 1st half, but they were able to pull of in the 2nd half, making the score 1-1 and going into an extra time then the penalty and ultimately win the match!... All the way to the finals...and be the champion!!
