WOoo HOooo.....
Chingay was fun... having the chance to be able to watch it from such a closer distance to the performance, it's every cent worth of my time... hehe...
For the past dunno how many years, i never thought chingay was a fun event... To me, it's always some street parade with some floats going ard on orchard road held on the weekend after the CNY holidays every yr.

But what i've seen for the past 2 days changed much of my views on Chingay... It's really a carnival(of course cannot be compared with the Mardis Gras that km had gone to lah).. haha.. but nevertheless, for those of ya who has been there b4, u'll know that the atmosphere on the ground is super different from what u see on the square box at home.

Having the privilege to view the parade at 2 different sites for the 2 seperate days, i'm able to see different faces of the performers.. from their sian diao look while waiting for the event to start to their limitless energy even to the end of the parade, i'm impressed with the designs of the floats, the colourful costumes that every performer wear, not forgetting the firecrackers...
After gabbing so much on the parade, i'm actually there for the past 2 days to do canvassing.. haha...

Didn't do much in the end; i spent more time crapping abt the performance than working for canvassing... dun be mistaken, it's not then i eat snake lor, just that there's really nothing to do during the parade except to 'look' after the barricades. The job scope for the preview session on fri was even better, we need only to wipe the chairs b4 the thing starts. But one bad thing is that we have no place to sit on fri lah..

Sat's chingay was better, although there's some confusion on who to find n stuff in the beginning, we manage to settle down at the bus-stop outside emerald orchard, opposite specialist centre. Even though the bus stop is between performance stage 3 and 4(i think), but the we(me, ah hai, lixuan, see yeh, thoon loon, choon chuen) were still able to catch much of the actions as the performers stop at every section before the main stage to perform for the spectators by the side of the road.. guess what, out of so many of us, ah hai received the most num of waves from the performers... ranging from pri sch kids to obasan from the jap troupe.. hahahaha....

Well, i think the best view of the night will be coming from jingz, cos she's positioned just in front of the section where the president sits lor... that means she's having the same view as what the president will see lor.. *envy*
haha
but never mind, actually towards the end i become a bit sian.. cos watching the same thing for 2 days liao... hehe..

So much of Chingay... hope next yr COR will have the same lobang lah, but i'll only go for 1 day.. hehe, cos 2 days of Chingay is a bit boring for me.... hahaha
