DowntownEast at Pasir Ris. And i went to the wrong chalet that day, Costa Sands.
Reached there and marinated, seasoned the chicken wings cause before that Sean was calling me. and screamed for help about not knowing how to marinate and all. Hahaha. Kidding!
And stoned while waiting for some of the rest to come back from Escape Theme Park.

Sometime later, some went down to get the bbq stuffs prepared. And waited for our BBQ CHEF to come. Abraham Kang.

oh! before i forgot. I met up with Weiliang and BoonChuan that other day, 25Sep at Vivo.
Wanted to watch Balls Of Fury, and the night before i went to check the timing.
And when we met up and went to Golden Village, i actually saw the wrong timing for Balls Of Fury. The timing was for the next day's. Lol! So we watched 881.
The local production of Royston Tan. its like a first local musical moive film and it turned out to be one of the finest local production.
(:
The story revolves around two friends were mesmerised by the glitz and glamour drawn to each other by the love of the 'GeTai' - a lively stage performance held during the Ghost Festival in Singapore. After being blessed by the Goddess of 'Getai', they become the most sought-after pair of 'Getai' singers ever. This musical features outstanding acting by Mindee Ong as Little Papaya, who battles her personal health issues while fighting to stop a rival sister group, The Durian Sisters ,played by May and Choy -have become intensely jealous of the Papayas' success, are determined to trip them up by messing with their schedule. Mindee is paired up with Big Papaya, acted by Yeo Yann Yann and together with their inspiring and glitzy costumes, take the getai world by storm.
In addition, the performance by Qi Yu Wu hardly leaves an impression, understandably because he had to narrate throughout the 110-minute movie. Once again, I choose to believe that there must have been a reason why the director chose to do it this way.
The saving grace is perhaps the nostalgia generated by the medley of Hokkien songs delivered by the gutsy Papaya sisters and their impeccable performance on and off the getai. The generation who still understands the language will no doubt be in stitches as they walk down memory lane, singing the forgotten songs that once rang out into the still, starry nights of the Seventh month.
