China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe

Is 12 midnight.... and tomorrow I got to work, but i refused to sleep.... Maybe is the overwork effect at workplace.... is so stressful working in a poorly-managed department.... ( i know, i know.... I'm killing my career)...... i just need to voice it out....

However, recently got an email from a friend that she attended a performance in South Korea and impressed with it... and she mentioned about China Disabled People's Performing Art Troupe.... This troupe is so familiar till my mind reflected the scene from 'Avakijutesvara Bodhisattva' which i saw in you tube....

Well, these dancers are Deaf and Mute dancers from China, as they can't get the cue from the music for obvious reason, they use their eyes to observe their instructor from in front, sides and back if they turn..... so these people worked very hard to get this stunning effect of Thousand Hand Guan Yin......

Once a friend told me that it took us able -bodied people 6 months to turn an action into habit by practicing daily.... but it took 6 years to perfect a habit in a normal person.... So, what bout all these wonderful performers??? I wonder how many years they took to get the effect of perfection....

Then, I remembered this troupe came to Malaysia once in Nov 2008 to perform 'My Dream' in KLCC.... too bad, during that time, I'm unable to attend the presentation.

Therefore, I googled them again.... and found this video clip....

I'm like millions of people out there who took my time to watch the grand opening of the Beijing Olympic 2008... but completely forgotten bout the grand opening of the Beijing Paralympic 2008..... Ashamed .... ashamed......

And i found this clip.... my favorite clip....

The girl, Li Yue is an amputee child who lost her right leg to the Sichuan Earthquake one year ago.... and during the performance she was given hundreds of legs from her compatriot of Deaf dancers, who used their hands as her feet to dance according to her.....

What an stunning, impressive performance.... as U can see,there are one main instructor in front and 3 besides and behind them to lead them....

The are today's living-proof of being strong for tomorrow's fallout....

Coca Cola Only Happiness Advert

I always love the cartoon by Pixar Film,A Bug's Life.... Is so cute, seeing those little bugs together and kind of reflected how we approach life as well... Is been 11 years since the film was produced by Pixar Film.....

Here are some of the pictures that remind you once a upon a time, this film really take a toll of our busy life to remind us to slow down....

As a family, we gather together to make things work......

We share our knowledge with others despite the knowledge is useless to them.....

As friend, we help each other despite the difficulties we faced throughout our life....

Therefore, this Coca Cola Advert ( I did not get pay for this post, in fact, I never)..... really shown something cool bout animation...... and life as well....

Life is so precious....

Errrmmm.... I'm not promoting the company called Thai Life Insurance.... But, I think this advert brought me back to my past I experienced the worst thing in my life where i lost someone to God....... I don't mind losing to Him but what i mind is there were so many things i want to tell but now forever it'll bury deep down with sense of regret that embedded me everyday in my life.....

I worked in hospital.... And i have seen many people succumbed into regrets after illness come upon them or accidents take over their loved ones' life.....And at the end, the common words come out from their mouth are

'if i have the time, I'll.......'

Here is the advert...

So, don't wait for the time to come, do it now......

The Day I Went to his Concert

The day has come.....

Lee Hom Live In Malaysia

MUSIC-MAN

He dreams he is a superhero.... A Music Superhero.... It seems appropriate cause he is talented in this industry. From Chinese Musical instrumental , Er Hu to drums.... Nothing can stop this Music-Man from roaring!!!!!

So, I reached Jac's house and she shown me the envelope....

First thing I do, was to check the tickets first, make sure is genuine and also make sure Jac didn't give me a late April fool surprise....

IS real... the tickets were real.... and the best thing was the tickets were FREE!!!!!!

I can't believe I can go to his concert for FREE!!!!!!!! THANK YOU JAC!!!!!!

And then, I checked where is the seat...

it is Block 213 E22....

So, where is Block 213 E22?????

Not bad, it looked near.....I'm looking forward to see him now....

But...... in reality,

It is not as near as I thought....

U know where is the stage????

Is here.....

Yes. that's the stage from my seat.....

Well, the moral of the story is

First, you should buy the VVIP seat which is worth RM 600, so you can get view like this...

Pictures courtesy from kimong.com. Thanks...

Better still, get a media pass and also a DSLR, so U can get view like this...

Pictures taken from Idolhunter Production

Or, worst, be smart like Jac, she reminded me to bring binocular as well, so, thanks to my bro for his binocular....

But, all these doesn't matter to me because if I'm busy taking pictures of him.......

I'll lose the moment .....

Moment of listening to his songs while he is playing piano live.....

Moment of looking at him enjoying his new friend, Bahamut

Moment of observing his performance.... though he doesn't dance well...

And, most important...

Moment of seeing his smile.....

Therefore, even with the view like this.... and also constant observation by the security guard who spoilt my mood for forbid me from taking pictures....

I had a great time, no regret, no complaint except the venue, Bukit Jalil is really suck, hot and stuffy..... for an international venue....

And I'm sure Jac also having a great time, at least Jac get to see his body when he wore just only vest in one of the performances.....

We are different at different time....

I received this email from a friend.... Though I don't know who is the photographer, therefore I want to acknowledge the owner of these pictures, is well-taken, but I think is meaningful... because there is a meaning behind these pictures......

We are like forests.....

At different season, it has different view.....

During spring time, you will see flower buds coming out from the trees. Tiny leaves begin to grow...... Hope seems to come to life....

During summer, sun shines brightly at the forest, welcoming them to life.... Trees looking cheerful, and flowers look lively,....

And then, when autumn come, leaves turn yellow......and trees looking vibrant... they shown their best color.... before, succumb into hibernation....

During winter, the forest look cold and ugly..... Trees are lifeless.... and river looking fragile.....

Our life is also like this circle of life of these trees and river..... We change as we aged..... We begin our life as an infant during spring, slowly, we grown up into adulthood in the summer.... And then, during autumn, we make ourselves better person, so, during older days in winter, we can tell ourselves,

I AM A BETTER PERSON BECAUSE I MAKE THROUGH LIFE WITH NO REGRET......

Lee Hom Music Man Malaysia Concert 2009

Last year September 2008, when I was in Singapore with my family for Ninth God Festival (Is kinda tradition to go Singapore's Turtle Island for prayers, I think my dad used that reason as a holidays for family.), I saw this advert in front of an optical shop.

My brother teased me and said I should steal the poster and hang it on my bedroom's wall and imagine he is performing in front of me while I blasted his 'Taipei Heroes of Earth Concert 2008'. Everyone mistaken thought I'm crazy bout him which indeed in certain way I'm... But I don't use the word 'crazy' because I can't afford to scream at him during his concert cause I know there is no point behind it, he can't hear my ugly voice anyway.

But of course, if he appear like this

Bare Chest!!!!

Arrrrgghhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'll definitely scream like no one business till i annoy the person sit next to me...

So, in April 2009, finally, he officially announced that he will be having his concert tour in Malaysia. I was rather ecstatic over it. Thinking, now that i have been working for past one year, i think i can fork some money for the concert..... But as times goes by, and i decided not to fork out the money because of my new commitment for Iphone... Damm!!!!!

And then, my beloved sister offered and said she will pay for the RM398 tickets, crazy man, i was so excited but at the end, i told her i don't want to go because i afraid i got to work on that Saturday. And it turns out i had to work on that weekend.However, i did not the concert day, but on labor day!!!!!!

So, days before his concert, I listened to his non-stop, when i go to work, when i come back from work, his songs keep repeating in my car audio..... Now I sound I'm crazy....... (kekekeke, actually, i left my other CDs in KL, i only has his CDs in my van)

Suddenly, on 30th April 2009, 5 minutes before my yoga class bout to start, Jac called me......

Is like Déjà-vu......

Jac said "Shiau Lee, where are you now"

Me replied " Going into my yoga class"

Jac said " Huh, means you are still in Ipoh"

Me mentioned, " Of course, tom is my on call day, why?"

Jac said, " Actually, i got tickets from Z for Lee Hom's concert!!!"

Me shouted, " What????? I'm coming back right after my on call tomorrow.... I want to go.... i want to go!!!! Hahahahahha!!!!!! You are going with me or what????"

Jac said " But she hasn't give me the ticket yet"

Me assured, " Never mind, I'll come back, if have, we go together, if not, is ok with me, we find other things to do."

Actually i lied, deep down in my heart, I'm clinging to the hope that she will get the tickets!!!!! HAhahahaha.!!!!!!!...

Now, i sounded like a crazy hypocrite idiotic fan!!!!!!!

But, anyway,

LEE HOM ROCKS!!!!!!!

Hope can he will play Er Hu this time

Or maybe see him jump like this

Or drool at him while he play his violin

Or watch him drumming suavely

Now, i sounded like a crazy girl.......

Thanks to Homaniacs for the pictures.....
