So i got up this morning at about 7.10am and got ready for my conference....in a nutshell, the conference is about the who, what, how, why and etc..on nutrition in patients...but i was dead bored by lunch time and i was already into the 4th chapter of New Moon by then...and i was dozing off more than occasionally..so was Kevin, my colleague..hehe..he left when the afternoon session started...i really felt like going off too...but i was too lazy to go home and then go out again to 1 utama from home...so i endured till the session ended...
Took a cab to 1 utama...bloody cost me rm19...coz the driver went to pump gas and we waited for more than rm1...and there was the jam..but finally i was there..by then my feet is already screaming for rest...i was wearing a new pair of heels which i just bought before i came back..and they were torturing my feet to a slow death...and i actually walked the whole of 1 utama looking for central park avenue...finally found an info counter at the old wing..only to find out that central park avenue was at the other end of the new wing...bugger!!...anyway, i stopped by at Jack's place for a real long dinner...to rest my feet more than anything really...
So at about 8.10pm, i made my way slowly to central park avenue...hunn huii met me there...Joanna was late...about 20 minutes...i guess that's acceptable...so while we were waiting, i checked out the cd stall which was selling Joanna's 1st and 2nd album...dang...they were selling it for rm48...i bought her 2nd album for rm53.90 earlier at speedy...the same shop which was selling at the cd stall...bloody ripped off..anyway, i bought her 1st album since it was cheaper...rm40 only...we asked if we could get into the VIP seats if we bought the cds..but the guy said we needed VIP tickets... ticket scmhicket..hunn huii and i saw so many ppl going in with just the cds...and poor me was standing all the while...
Anyway, Joanna finally took the stage and sang away...she played the guitar and was accompanied by another guy called eric who played the electric guitar...she's really good playing and singing life...though i must say her crowd of fans were less rowdy than i expected..i mean, at Khalil's showcase...there were slightly less ppl but the atmosphere was one filled with screaming fans...well, girls mostly..yours truly not included...i guess it's coz Joanna's fans were more diversified..so they are more civil...
I'm really glad i got to catch Joanna perform live...though i'm still Khalil's no.1 fan..;P..will upload some pics later...no upclose pics of Joanna though...the organizer didn't allow camera onstage.. and they made her sign on her album covers only...i preferred her signing the lyrics book...
Btw, just checked out Khalil's facebook homepage...he'll be having a concert soon in HK..it's called Timeless Live in HK 2009...on 27 august at the HK convention and exhibition centre hall...aahhh!!!! i wanna go!!!!and i'm only going to be in HK in december..dang!!!
