Happening!!!

I must say that since i moved to Singapore that the past weekend was one of the most happening weekends that i had. It was a 4 day weekend for me coz i took leave on Monday and Tuesday was labour day. And this time round it was a record breaking visit from our Guests. 4 at one time. So you can imagine my little place in Tanah Merah was packed to the brim. But somehow me and Esther managed with the sleeping arrangements.

The first person who came was Joe and he came since last Thursday. Joe's my Malaysian friend who works in Vietnam. The same night that he came we crashed a party. A production house had just finished shooting a commercial for a Vietnamese telco called "S-Fone" but they were joking about it saying it was ASS phone so that was rather funny. Anyway, i brought my Vietnamese intern at work with me and good thing i did coz there were a couple of other Vietnamese who were there too. So i guess it would be rather intersting for her as well.

Then came friday. Joe, Luis (Joe's collegue) and myself went for this play at the National Library called "The Blithe Spirit". I must say it was pretty good. Singapore does have many great talents. There were two actors whom i know that was in this play. One was ...err forgot their name lar but it was the actor that played Phua Chu Kang's Ma and the other was PCK's sister in law. Right now i just cant remember their names but for those who know about the PCK show u guys might know what i'm talking about. Anyway, the play was really funny and the place that it was shown in was really good too.

To sum up the whole story of the play it was basically about Charles Koh who is blissfully married to his second wife Ruth. Desperately seeking inspiration for a ghost story he's writing, he engages the flamboyant medium Madame Arcati to perform a séance in his Bukit Timah home. When she unwittingly summons the mischievous ghost of his first wife, Elvira, all hell breaks loose. Together with their friends Dr. and Mrs. Quek and their trusty maid Edith, they face the supernatural challenge of taming Elvira's blithe spirit in a comedy that literally brings the house down.
