To a few, waiting can be traumatic...And bloody lucky they are too! Niggy and Chi Ho had almost given up on finding this secluded school. At least the fuel was covered. After hours on the road and hoping that the school will offer enough trees for us to escape the scorching weather, we came across what would the stuffiest school hall on the planet! I mean, Spongebob will get dehydrated in no time! We have never seen so many sweaty people in dresses and formal wear. Heck, we thought we ran into a group of extras from Lost!
To top it all up, there was always the waiting, the search for water and food, the makeshift 'dressing rooms', so on and forth. The Mustang flers arrived slightly later than us but nevertheless, they ran into the same fate. Pity our photographer Mun Mun though, who, arguably, had her worst birthday experience ever, having forced to munch on extra salty egg sandwiches and overly diluted soft drinks for lunch!
But there is always the thrill; those few seconds before the curtain opens to look forward to. This time, however, the Prof. had to confront the event's emcee, who (also) tried to teach the crowd "how to dance" but you know what... there can be only one Professor!The Professor: "This is the way you twist it and twist it..."
After dealing with the emcee and overwhelming the crowd, it was up to Chi Ho, Matt & Niggy to strut their stuff. (Only 4 CBKs this time since Jon can't make it due to professional commitments. We've done with 4 CBKs many times before and the only problem we had this time was splitting the dough between 4 instead of 5!).Ronnie suddenly realizes that tight trousers don't necessarily bring out his sexiness...
Again, I don't like the boast, but let's just say that we brought down the hall eventhough not one joke was told (would you believe it, Jim?). And when the crowd were still recovering from stomach cramps, cheek spasms, painful palms and teary eyes, the Prof. made a complimentary intro the Mustang Crew. And as we expected, from the first time we saw them on stage, they blew the crowd over with their masterful Klumping choreography. All the best to the Crew!Laughter and applause is what we live for...
