18 July 2007 - The Kind and I Musical

I was quite kiasu and bought the tickets to this show as soon as i knew i was coming to town.. that was like 3 or 4 months ago.. was it worth the hurry... hmmm.. i guess i would have to say "NO!!"...

I was a bit too slow moving for my liking.. and there aren't a lot of famous songs that i could sing to.. i am one of those musical freaks.. will listen to a CD over and over again until i've memorised the words to the songs.. well.. i guess i used to be like that.. have not done it in years..

If you've been to Istana Budaya.. i'm sure you'd have complained that the seats are narrow.. it is worse if you are in the front row.. would have been even more uncomfortable if my legs were longer. It is no fun to sit front row.. but i bought my ticket over the internet.. and the "system" generates your ticket automatically.. isn't it silly that you don't get to choose where you want to sit even though you are one of the early birds ?? And the website did not confirm your booking immediately even though they take down your credit card number. You will get an email a few days later to confirm your booking. Is that weird or what ? Other ticketing agents are not like that so i guess it was just the Organisers of this event which was not so Organised ! Sometimes there is no advantage in being Kiasu !

Please excuse the badly taken photo.. am not supposed to take photos of the production.. it is not easy to take a photo when you think no one is watching and i did not have the luxury of focusing the lens properly..
