Abba craze seem to be brewing all around town. (Mamma mia has got to be the movie with the MOST contradictory reviews I have ever seen)
thanks to dotty for letting me be your replacment mom and catch abbamania at esplanade!
we both thought it was a musical about abba (was thinking why we were watching a musical about a band who had their own musical) *confused* but it turned out to be an abba concert! nah.. the band didnt come back from the graves (are they still around? no idea which era they are from...) its just a bunch of crazy enthusiasts performing their songs.. imitating right down to the oh-so-old-school outfits and oh-so-hilarious-step-right-step-left-step-right-and-from-the-top!-step left-step-right...-dance moves. really entertaining! not forgetting the ang mohs waving their feathery getai thingy and leaping to their feet everytime the songs get upbeat.
abba songs are sooo catchy!
plus its the first time I had to run to a concert! we were happily eating at MS before realising we were probably never going to make it in time and had to gobble down our food and ask for the bill and scramble towards esplanade all at once.
I know that people werent allowed into theatres once the concert starts but what I didnt know were the chimes/bells/alarms that they used as a warning!
we were on the escalators at 7.57pm and as soon as we got off, we joined a bunch of people running towards the theatre (or trotting along with the ever pratical heels) and practically threw the tickets at the ushers. and still got security check! (at this point, the security just opened the bag and if a bomb didnt flew out at him, he just closed it and passed it back)
all the time with the alarms going off like some state of emergency! super hilarious I tell you!
but we made it. (duh! if not I wouldnt sound so excited already)
fun!
plus I am meeting vaness EVERYDAY for dinners (lonely no more!) that we may soon get sick of seeing each other ON TOP of being sick of eating in school.
haha. why do I sound so bubbly at 1am?
