On friday I was at Times Square (Hongkong) in the afternoon... and as we were walking towards the shopping centre, we spotted a large crowd around this tiny stage right in front of Times Square, so excitedly we squeezed our way to the front and guess who we saw?? MIRIAM YEUNG, Yang Qian Hua in mandarin! She's this popular hongkong singer whose songs my friends always sing during Kbox sessions. haha. It was just exciting being so up close to a popular star, and ame and i are always hoping we'll spot more of these HK stars on the streets in time to come! hee. I'm getting really into the HK celebrities, other than those I was introduced to by cheryl! Maybe I'll really become a TVB junkie, then my canto will improve! Cantonese songs are really nice as well... Joey Yung, Denise Ho, Miriam etc. The entertainment scene here just seems so much more exciting, compared to Singapore(where I really don't find any celebrity close to attractive), or Taiwan(where the stars are just so act-cute and crappy it gets disgusting!) haha.
We were really quite close to Miriam! Just that there were thousands of cameras blocking out view! haha.
And on Saturday Night...
HOCC Live in Unity 2007 - we stand as one
I went for Denise Ho's concert, and it was SPECTACULAR to say the least!!!! REALLY. haha. for those of you who dont really know about canto pop, D ho is also known as HOCC, and she's this really cool, goodlooking and fantastic singer!!! I knew some of her songs before I went for her concert, but now, I'm a huge fan :) It was held at the HK coliseum, something equivalent of the indoor stadium here, almost as big i think. The atmosphere was really electric, with fans on their feet screaming and dancing along to her music. The stage design was sooo cool, quite simple but really COOL at the same time! The dancers' costumes and the props were really attractive and eye catching. AND of course, Denise HO was SUPERB! Her hairstyle, her singing, dancing, and her stage presence... WOW. haha. we were up on our feet dancing and rocking to the music with the rest of the crowd! and we weren't even fans to begin with, imagine that!! Hocc has this really spunky, funky, rockish, cool attitude- just absolutely her own sense of style! I really enjoyed myself. Somehow, being at a concert like that in HK makes me feel totally into the HK lifestyle, listening to all the canto songs, taking the MTR and railway all over hongkong, screaming at the top of my lungs with the whole bunch of crazy enthusiastic fans! =) an experience I'll never forget!
Check out the stadium- really huge, colorful, and everyone was given this lime green balloon banner thingy to wave and clap along to the rhythm! Simply awesome! haha. Me, amelia, cheryl and claire simply went crazy screaming and dancing and having a ball of a time!
Hocc was really fantastic! Her awesome stage presence kept us excited and energetic then whole night from 830 to 12 midnight!! Look at the musicians' costumes, so cool right!!
The dancers were really awesome!! haha. I dont know how else to describe it, but I felt inspired to learn proper hiphop/ or at least some form of dance after watching them! Hocc is just TOO COOL to be true! haha. look at her hot outfit too!
Hocc up close and personal! haha. She came around to the side I was seated at, and so i was able to zoom and capture this picture of her! Her hair is just so funky, and she's really very funky and goodlooking. I dont know if she can be considered to be pretty cos she's not the sweet, girly singer kind, but shes definitely really attractive and goodlooking! And her songs are very nice too!
Amazing how someone can pull off such a cool funky hairstyle SO well!
Another picture of her on stage in this doll dress- she was supposed to be a doll, something to do with the lyrics of her song!
AHH. haha the connection in my hostel room is really slow and I take about 30 mins to upload one pic. I have thousands more pictures I would love to show you all, but connection's simply making it impossible. Maybe tomorrow or something I'll try to upload again =)
Oh, I bought this Hocc concert poster for only HK $20!! And its up on my wall now :):):)
Sunday we went to church with ame's aunt again. It was ICA's (International Christian Assembly)thanksgiving sevice so it was held at Queen Elizabeth Stadium where all the 5 congregations came together once a yr! It was amazing to see Thais, Indonesians, Fillipinos, Cantonese, SriLankan and Indian congregations coming together to worship!
I do have lots more to blog about, but for now, this is it! will update soon, maybe later:) tata.
