mood: moderately impressed

i just got back from watching
hannah tan perform, live on piano, at somo. to be honest, i was not a fan, and am still not a fan. i went only because i was indulging my "aunty" self and being "pat" to see what the fuss is all about.
in summary - she plays the piano well. she's a pretty good singer too. and did i mention she's hot? (d-uh!) =) but she really does come across as sweet. plus she reminds me of kristin kreuk from smallville.
anyway, back to more important stuff - yup, she's hot!

the choreography was excellent! well in my opinion anyway. it was artistic, yet still managed to stay relevant - thereby conveying the message (although still subject to each individual's interpretation) and emotions quite clearly - basically, you don't have to be particularly artsy-fartsy to get it lah.
you could see the underlying spanish/tango theme whilst hints of more traditional influences were incorporated. the minimalist set and costumes combined with simple yet highly effective lighting effects completed the production.
it ends on 6th April! go catch it! =)

here's a cryptic analogy for you:
if you trip, fall and hurt yourself, after you've already learnt how to walk, can you blame the one who taught you how to walk in the first place?

pride hinders us from doing a lot of stupid things. but in the same way, it also holds us back from doing what's right.

if, as horace walpole put it, life is a tragedy to those who feel, and a comedy to those who think - then i'd say life to me is a dark comedy.
i think i've said my fair share for some time.
good night.
