Romeo and Juliet (the ballet) that I went to see two nights ago with Zaty was quite disappointing. After looking forward to see it for weeks, it didn't meet my expectation at all. There were too many people on stage doing too many different things that I didn't know which one to focus on. I was afraid that if I didn't pay attention to all of them that I wouldn't understand the story. I think the ballet was a bit rough, it wasn't as graceful as I thought it should be. I also wish Romeo had put on tighter pants, that could have helped me stay more alert during the show. I think I dozed off a few times except for the last part of the show, when they made love. Haha! Since it was my first time watching ballet, it was hard for me to figure out what they were trying to say. The costumes were also a bit too much, I think. Oh and the ballet was too long! It went on for 3 hours with 3 fifteen minutes break. I guess I'm not much of a ballet person. I think I prefer musicals, like Puteri Gunung Ledang the musical that I went to see when I was back in college.
Earlier that day, I went out shopping with Alex. We haven't seen each other for quite some time so it was really nice to see her again! It was really fun, we had lunch at Astoria down Lambton Quay (I think that is what the cafe's called) and then went shopping. Alex bought this cool jacket that I think looks really good on her! I would have bought one myself too if only it wasn't so expensive. We also bought a few other things and then we hung out for a bit at my place before she went back around 5 p.m.
Oh and later that night, I went to the common room and Zaty was there with a few other edu people. We were bored so we decided to get our tummy filled and off we went to Hadi Gari at 12 a.m! Peachy and Sarah came with us. Since it was a Saturday night, the town was packed with people. We came back at about 2 a.m and I went straight to bed after that :)
