Operaaaa
Watched some Chinese Cultural Festival performance today at the Singapore Conf Hall. Haha, interesting that I passed by this place for X physique that day. First brush with any sort of opera experience. Quite amazing frankly, thought I can't say I'm hooked. But the amazing control and texture of their voices, especially the guy's... WOW. Ding Yi - One of the Three Tenors of China and he's at the Sydney Opera House. The lady was a Wu Bixia, not bad, but I still don't like shrill high voices much. Plus she sang the western classics way better than the chinese evergreen songs. Kinda weird. Her voice control and such is AMAAZING too.
I loved it when the guy sang Cao Yuan Zhi Ye. SO NICE! My gosh. I still can't appreciate orchestral music though, although the conductor was simply funny: the way he kept beaming and dancing, hopping a little to the music. Being an opera singer is no joke man. You have to be like an actor, a performer, a great singer and most importantly a crowd interactor! The guy, was in my opinion, fantastic because he seemed to engage the crowd better. Plus, I guess you have to really enjoy your singing, because you have to show that you are to the audience, and this sorta thing is kinda hard to fake huh.
Okie, time to sleep. Hung out with classmates yest though, at Jln Kayu. Not too bad, though this morning had to get up SO early and still took a cab >.< No money left. Sigh. And I think I'm a darn possessive and SELFISH person. Recently, I think d and w are getting closer and I started feeling kinda unhappy. Cuz it's always been me, like I've always been mostly the one who's closer to the guys or him in general. Maybe its just me and my too-much thinking blah. Okay. Going to bed. But I SERIOUSLY think there's something going on between them two. BLAH.
Speaking of which, he talked to me and touched my hand. In two separate incidents though in the same day. Wished it had been a few weeks earlier huh, then I'd probably hyperventilate the whole week =P Too bad.
