Opera Shopping Spree

-
We are now attacking the opera shops in Guangzhou.

Look at all thes headgears! All kinds of head gears can be found here. I saw a butterfly one very nice oh...

I bought 2 pairs of shoes. Tian also bought a pair~ I love the white shoes lor and tian likes them too but don't have her size. So she bought blue instead. I think the blue one is nice too.

Close up of the pair of white shoes.. Awww.. so pretty!

I bought this pair of 2 inches high shoes for Qiuyue. She has been helping me make and alter costumes etc so I must get her something nice. This pair of shoes very nice hor? Many people like them too.

I even bought this pair of huan zhu ge ge shoes! For what you might ask. For fun lor. Cuz I like lor. Cuz they are pretty lor. Hahaha...

And why the black socks you might ask. Cuz I wear those socks inside my boots. Think my boots looks better with socks inside.

After seeing all the shoes I bought, you must be wandering what else I bought...

Tadah... I bought the dou dou cuz May and me are sharing them. She wanted some differen colours so I bought 3 diff colours. They are cheap lor. You can't imagine. I bought 5 handkerchiefs too. The centre white piece is a set of top and pants and skirt. I bought this set in case got those charity show... I want to act yuzhen xing. hahaha... and also to match the dou dous.

Tian and Nancy also each bought a set of costumes but I am not blogging them... Scared they say I anyhow post up their pictures with costumes and without make up. Most of us look like #$%^ when we wear costumes without make up. hahaha

Hi, I've just come across the site while looking for the Huan Zhu Ge Ge shoes on Google. I've been madly searching for these shoes for ages and ages, so please please e-mail me or post up the address/location of this store in Guangzhou. I really, really want these shoes, I've been wanting them since I saw Huan Zhu Ge Ge in '98... Please reply! I'd love to know the exact address so I can tell my grandparents where it is and maybe they can buy a pair for me.

Many many thanks. You can email me at radiochine@gmail.com.

A very crowded troupe

3 more students joined COI. That officially makes COI GZX troupe a very crowded troupe. In fact, overly crowded. There are 21 students now and including Ang, we will have 22 actresses/actors. Ang is going to have problems squeezing in all the students into 1 show. I don't think there are lots of shows which have 22 roles. Bao Hua and Zhu Ying has joined us for some time so they are not considered newbie already (MD mentioned that they are newbies in his blog). The 3 newbies I am talking about are Wanru, Si Qing and Ai Qing. Si Qing and Ai Qing are not sisters. They just happened to have 'Qing' in their names. I have not taken pictures of Siqing and Aiqing but I will try to take some and blog. I have got a few pics of Wanru but I will blog another day. As usual, Ang did her usual rounds of asking whether the newbies want to be dan or be shengs. Frankly speaking, both roles are overly crowded already. Competition is getting strong but still, we are still harmoniously getting ...

Yesterday we had a performance at Holland Road Blk 2. I was doing the excerpt 'Broken Bridge' of Madam white snake and the others were doing Tang Bo Hu. I couldn't find a Xu Xian (YH dun like this role) so I got no choice but to ask Naiba for help. Heng he was free that day to help us. Kanglong found a very nice spot to take photos and everyone took photos at that spot.... I think this spot is nice too with the pillar behind and the flowers and the white background... Me and Naiba... Hmm, too bad his face kana hidden in shadow lor. Susan as green snake. I didn't realise that she was wearing the costume wrongly lor.. haiz, too late to inform her liao... I like to act with Naiba cuz I don't look fat with him. I stomach pain... need to go toilet... :P Pain until cannot walk le.... sob sob... Cannot find toilet, I very sad.... I believe the toilet is there..... Cannot find toilet, I think I better take a break here... Believe me, I know where the toilet is.... Green sn...

N+1

I was browsing the internet looking at opera related videos when I came across a song 'N+1' sang by Chris Lee. Man, I was surprised by the opera elements in the song! She combined hip hop and chinese opera (like Jay and Lee Hom) and the MTV is quite nice. It's like abit of hip hop dance and some chinese opera. Chris Lee even dressed up in opera 'wu dan' costume! Hee hee, but she looked a bit weird. Her actions are good but looks wise, weird. Ok, the MTV. I should learn to sing this song. Lol...
