I went to NUS yesterday to attend a dance performance involved in by my lil couzin. Met dancing kid for dinner before heading to the lecture theatre. If you watch a movie in Singapore, and you enter the cinema before the curtains are drawn, when they're still playing some music, you'll manage to see an advertisement by Singapore Dance Group or something like that. In that advertisment, it says "You don't need to know dance to love it." I think i'm beginning to understand that statement after yesterday.

Fortunately, the performance was not too abstract, and i was able to understand most of what was happening.In my couzin's words, "Dance is a form of expression". And it well was, sitting right at the front rows of the theatre, i could see the facial expressions of the dancers how it flowed with the theme. Fake smiles when happy, agony when sad. Kind of a wonderful exprience, considering it is my first (almost, i went to a mini opera at Sydney Opera House) attendance of theatre performance.

Another good thing that turned up was that i managed to meet wilfred, after all these years. Think the last i saw him saw around three years ago. I guess it was nice for him to meet up with me too. He was thinking that he was collecting the lowest ever salary among his peers, until he met me that is... Yeah, welcome to my life.

Didn't get any flowers though, would have been nice to get lil couzin some flowers, but i went there straight from work. Anyway, there was this other guy at the dance, dancer choreographer name it all kind of guy. He was like oozing charisma the whole time, and all the girls were fawning all over him and were like "Peter, take photo with me blah blah!" And there i was, commenting that everyone said i looked terrible with long hair, so why does this long-haired Peter gets all the girls. My lil couzin went like, "He can dance wat, can you?" Yeah, go ahead, step all over me. Hmm.. did i say i wanna pick up dancing many posts back? I think i did. Funny how i keep thinking i missed out all these stuff on younger days while lil couzin is thinking of quitting dance...

Anyway, there was this other guy dancer who looked extremely like one of my NS friend. The resemblence was striking. But it'll be weird if he is still studying. What was he taking triple degree or something? Anyway, at one point of time, i waved at him, and i think he might have thought, "Why is this gay guy waving at me?"

Oh and here's an account of the experience by my lil couzin, herself.
