unexpected meeting

23rd Nov 2006

thinking that i shouldnt be always blogging abt sad and -ive stuff. today is quite a happy day for me^^.

FF to after school. took a cab from Dover MRT to Victoria Concert Hall for a Japanese Instrumental Concert.

Reached there ard 7pm. @ ard 7.20 a very familar face appeared in front of me.... at that point of time, i still cant remember who was that. after a few minutes of recalling. FINALLY. DAWN YEOH! of Xing Shan Shan! checked my hp for the photo i took of her earlier in the year to confirm whether she is really Dawn. LOL. Bingo. she was indeed Dawn. funny thing is like very few ppl recognized her. but she still looked very kawaii. waited till 8pm.. I walked into the cafeteria to talk to her. very friendly smile, got a bonus handshake too! . no photos bcos her promo dun allow her to.

then the concert commences, i was on the 1st level, she was on the 2nd level. thinking of her all the way thru the 1st 1/2 of the concert. and of cos @ the same time mesmerized by the melody created by the Japanese instruments. 3 groups of performers performance about 3 pieces each.
out of all of them. my favorite picks are : 琴龍会's　涙そうそう [original tune of 淳佳's 陪你看日出],
琴水会's 桜桜. There is a 15 minutes intermission, I moved to the 2nd level and joined the "VIPs" lol. Dawn was 3 rows infront of me. haha. Then the performance kicked out with Singapore Foochew Association people.

One of the interesting program lined up is the 大正琴 workshop, there all the peep on the 1st level are able to go onto the stage and taught how to play the 大正琴. 5 mins later, mostly all the level 1 ppl are on the stage. What amazed everyone on level 2 was that. they will only taught like 15mins of 2 lines but they are able to play the whole piece without much difficulties.

After the concert ard 10pm, i waited outside and got my chance to introduce myself more to Dawn and chatted a bit. she also apologized for not able to take photo with me on behalf of her promo, and autographed my Japanese Textbook. *sweetttttttt*

last saw was 1030pm @ Esplande where Dawn and her company peep are gonna have their supper.

happy day for me again. its been quite awhile since i saw her @ the Teens NEW FACE competition @ Plaza Singapura MONTHS ago.

luckily i went for this concert, got to enjoy great music and met up with a celebrity without any ppl in the way.

Taxi fare: $12.50, Mrt fare: $2. Meeting Dawn without barricades in between and handshake and chatting: PRICELESS
