Royston Tan @ MJC

=))) what a happening afternoon we had... ok, the photos aren't great here cos of the unpredictable and psychedelic lighting but for those who missed it, the JC1 H1 Chinese students had a very happening afternoon @ LT4 today!! ^^

ROYSTON TAN CAME TO MJC!!! WOO HOO!!!!

it's an event organised by Intrique – Mother Tongue Enrichment Programme - entitled: "Of Getais, Memories and Chinese Language"

yeah... so soon hao, joel, tiffany and I waited outside the LT armed with our cams, ready to paparazzi him when he arrives... we waited... waited... and waited... and i thought... wa, what's taking him so long???... then i asked a chinese teacher who happened to come out of the LT...

me: hi hi, is he arriving soon? ^^
CT: (in her very spiak chinese) he is already inside! he went in by the back door!

soon hao, tiffany, joel and me: ha???? -_________-||| diao....

we were gong gong-ly waiting outside!!! *slap forehead* so we quickly went in by the back door...

royston tan started off by sharing his thoughts about movies, in particular, his inspirations etc.




i cried when i watched the last short film (ssshhh... it has not been released yet! MJC students got a special preview!!) *SOBS*

then before he announced the arrival of his special guest, the chinese teachers started giving out fluorescent light sticks and suddenly LIU LING LING appeared in all her getai splendour amidst cheering and cat calls!!! so exciting!


so the entire LT was transformed into a getai stage and liu ling ling wow-ed the crowd with her stellar performance (i can understand hokkien) of getai hits, her warm personality and ease with which she connected with the audience.



she is hilarious... she introduced herself...

LLL: Hello everybody, my name is Lau Ling Ling, my father is Lau Kok Kok, my mother is Lau Char Bor!

ROFL

then she said she is Lady Mama... LOL




she changed into her sailor-moon outfit ON STAGE!!! seriously... she demonstrated how getai performers change backstage by slipping out of her gown and stepping into her sailor-moon dress ON STAGE! bravo....!


and gave out posters to two lucky MJCians, both of whom got a hug from her... so sweet ^^




and of cos, our Ms Lai presented Royston Tan with a token of appreciation and LLL with a bouquet...

LLL: wa! your principal's figure is much nicer than mine!



hahaha... MJCians cheonging for photos and one final group shot!
