Thank you for smoking

I went to see this movie today. It is about a lobbist of Tobacco industry who needs to promote cigarertte in the time when people are concern about the health hazard by cigarette. Nick Naylor, the main charactor, he using argument and twisted logic to place the difficult situation. The movie is quite good, I have to say. At first when Jasmin told me this is a movie about a PR person I think maybe I should have a look of it. The movie might exagerate the situation but it is worth to see it.

Cats

I went to see the musical Cats today. It was really great I have to say. I think the musical is no longer showing in West End and Broadway, right? It is really good to have a chance to see it here, New Theatre in Cardiff. I bought the ticket for the fornt stalls and it is only

£24.....much cheaper than the tickets in Taiwan. Before I went to the show, Jasmin and I went for a lunch. When we walked in Queen's Arched, we saw two performers wearing their costume spreading the flyers. I was so excited about that, and I went forward and I asked them if I can touch their ears!!! It was so cool because I thought it is suppose to be some costume in cat-ear shape, but it's not!!!! It's the performer's hair, I can't believe it!!!!During the show we can see the cats running up and down of the stage and they even came behind our seats!!!!! I love the dancing and the music.Although the stage isn't big enough (well comparing with the stage in west ends) but still I had a great time this afternoon.

I think there were about 20 performers? But I this one the most-

he's so cute. Everytime when he came up to the stage then I started laughing. It's a pity that we bought the tickets in the central of the row- it is suppose to be the best seat for other shows but not for this one. The cats ran all around the theatre and they just can't come near by me.....I'm so keen to have a really close contact with them>.<

Well still I enjoyed the show, and I love the dancing so much. Wish there's DVD releasing and then I can learn the dancing!!

someone has gone mad last night

After a drink with my new flatmate I went to sleep at 12. While I was sleeping I heard something noisy out of my window- I thought it was a cat or a tramp looking for something to eat from the garbage. Not until I heard someone shouting did I realise that it was a student from our hall. He was absolutely mad and was saying something like someone has taken his pot from his kitchen or something. This morning when I talked to my flatmate Nicki I was just crazy about that because he did that during midnight when I was sleeping and both Nicki and I went to sleep hardly afterwards. Anyway, I'm glad he cleaned things up otherwise it would be my turn to get mad ( the bin is just in front of my window).

Dinner

I went for a dinner with my coursemates yesturday. It's really sad that we are all leaving after the course and it's really hard to see each other because we are living all around the world. So Kate arranged the dinner and there were about 20 people coming( thanks Kate!!).
I met Jasmin and Andrew in front of the library. Then we saw Lulu, Katherin, Mary on our way. Then others came. We had our year book and everyone just wrote some notes to each other. The meal was fine I think, although some people didn't have enough stuff to eat and mine is just to big!! When my meal was serving, Kate and Vasili just cried out: Cynthia your meal is even bigger than you!! After the meal we went to a bar, had a drink. Kris and Savanah were curious about some romour about me and they asked me like: are you seeing somebody recently? This really make me laugh 'cause I've heard about 'that' romour many times and I don't know even Kris and Savanah had heard about it, too!! Haha!!
When I went back to my room, I was too tired and fell asleep directly.

Hot!!

After 2 weeks of raining days we now have lovely, bright, sunshine days for the whole week since this Wednesday. We were quite lucky, because Wednesday was the day Jasmin and I went to Birmingham to see Michael Flatley's 'Celtic Tiger'. The show was great, I couldn't say anything more. After we came back from Shrewsbury then it is the continously hot days. I can't believe it!! How can I survive after I go back to Taiwan???
