Beautyworld! (Cha Cha Cha)
Well it was some trip to Chicago this weekend. The shit was that i'd lent Heep the camera to take some pictures of his Bio thingies in class, and i forgot to get it back from him, so i didn't bring the camera to Chicago. Which means theres no fotos for this entry =(. Reached the airport at night.
Stayed at Helena's place, this friend i'd never met before, yet we knew each other pretty well.. Such is the power of DotA in connecting people. Slept on her couch for just one night, for the second night was the afterparty, and i had a 645am flight. Her roomie Stella makes good baked pasta. I was grateful for the two helpings i received, as i hadn't had dinner or a good lunch.
Went for dim sum brunch in Chicago at this place they call Yum Cha, with Helena, Annie (another of her housemates), Michael (Lai the RI gep), and Alex (remember RI PB twins Alex and Amos). Had to wait quite awhile, but it was nice having pei dan zhok (pork and century egg porridge), chee cheong fun (zhu chang fen in chinese) and fung zhao (chicken feet) amongst other dimsummy things.
Went back to Helena's place, got ready to go out and meet Kiats. Fell asleep while talking though, so woke late and met Kiats late downtown. Downtown Chicago is prettier than New York (even though i maintain times sq is the heart of cities...) Its cleaner, wider streets, prettier sidewalks, and flowers all around! How Springy and nice! We played chess by the road (i do have a foto here but i gotta wait for kiats to send me) which was just awesome. Then it was rush rush to Uchicago Campus for Beautyworld!
Met lots of Singaporeans there, it was rather amazing seeing a totally Singaporean crowd of hundreds and only a few angmohs instead. It was pretty nice having the tables turned. Turns out i knew alot of the people involved in the production.
Calvin Lin (props)
Kenneth Goh (sound)
Thong Kai (keyboard)
Jason Teo (Chorus/dancer)
and last but not least
Lippy Lee as Ah Hock!
Good la, Lip Jin. Salut!
So. The afterparty was pretty good for getting to know ppl, and a good unwinding session for all thats going on in NY... Tension building up to exams and all. Just 3+ weeks and i'll be home. How fast time flies.
So this post was belated.. but thats pretty much all i gotta say.. till the next post!
I love Estelle very much.
