Laughter is the Best Medicine

Me and hubby watched our 1st show at the Esplanade yesterday. That's right, after years of hanging out at the Marina Waterfront, from our dating days to the present with two kids, only NOW we go and see a show there! Actually, it is not that I do not want to, but tickets can be bit pricey, and the shows there can be too arty farty for me. I do not really know how to enjoy ballets, symphony orchestra music or opera. But I love concerts, broadway musicals and plays. Not many of these kind of shows take place at the Esplanade, they are usually at the Indoor Stadium or other smaller venues.

So what finally made me loosen my purse strings? Just one name, KUMAR! Haha, I am already laughing at the man (or woman) just looking at his (or her) face! I always like his stand-up comedy even since I saw him at Boom Boom Room a few years back. Always thought this guy has talent and wit. The show was Hilarious with a capital H. The show was meant for mature audiences above 18. It had sexual content, contains racism, religion and political remarks. But it was done with great humour. We should really learn how to laugh at ourselves and not be so uptight about every little thing. Me and hubby laughed so hard during the show. I hope to see more of Kumar soon on our screens.

Ok, just 5 more days to Hari Raya. Here is my to-do list by Friday:

1. Change 'hongbao' money for kids at the bank
2. Collect my bajus from the tailor
3. Get Kyra a white dress
4. Get Kyle his songkok
5. Collect kueh from my sis-in-law

Sigh...how I wish I can take leave for at least one day during this week! But I can't as this week is really such a busy one at work. I just have to perservere.
