24.04.10 （sat) 农历3月11日 - Today We had figured out how to go to an extremely ulu place again. We had went to Upper Boon Keng Road today. The getai area is at 432 Geylang Lorong 3. Does it s0und strange that the main road is Upper Boon Keng Road yet the temple area street is called Geylang Lorong 3. It is just a tiny alley that is called Geylang Lorong 3. The alley consist of row of terrace houses where one of them belong to the temple 鹏峰宫 website link: http://www.penghong.org.sg/.
But we took nearly 1 hour to reach there. We took bus 315 to Boundary Road near Serangoon Central and took Bus 853 to Kallang Bahru opp B66 and walked back to Blk 66 to take Bus 175 to the temple. Only Bus 175 went to Upper Boon Keng Road. When we returned home, we took bus 175, bus 107 to hougang area to take either bus 25,55 or 165 home. We are rather worry that we may missed the last bus but luckily bus 25 arrived. Mum was saying that bus 107 is a better option to take if we want to go to Upper boon keng road another time to watch getai. But it is a real torture to wait for stupid bus 175, miss one bus, need to wait for a bloody 15 min for the next idiot bus to arrive. Can vomit blood waiting for SBS bus and the best part is both time when we wan to go and return we had miss both bus 175 - we saw it driving off....
The getai area is very cramped. When i reached there, i thought that there is not space inside the area. The stage is facing the main road so ppl were just standing near the main road area. There is only a narrow walking space that will lead to the inside seating area. But I told mum that we should just walked in to check if there is better position to watch the getai. When we went right inside, we are surprised to find lot of empty chairs behind the last rows of audience seating. We managed to get two seats right at the end of the area. The other side of the alley were playing singapore gezaixi. We are glad that we get to sit down at least and not in the front area where duno why those ppl did not bother to step inside the area to the seating places.
Did not managed to get good photos shots today given my seating position but cannot complaint as i am very happy of the full coverage tentage, the cooling fans and the chairs provided. Saw my idol Hao Hao walking past me but did not say hallo to him.. ha ha.. a bit paiseh... always paiseh when i see him so near me.. i think i must eat more opera actress food to train myself not be to paiseh.. ha ha

Host. Hao Hao was promoting for Bao Bei Jie Mei Mini Concert at 13.06.10. Heard that the $68 tickets were sold out, left only $48 and $28. Hao Hao Fan Club members can get discount. And Hao hao was also promoting Bao Bei Jie Mei Fan Club, yes, they also now going to have their fan club. Offical opening will be at 17.05.10 at Jest D' Place (chua Chu Kang centre) I had no time to pick up the fan club application form as we are in a real rush to catch the bus. Wonder when will i get to see Hao Hao or Bao Bei Jie mei again so that i can get the Fan Club application form.. **Sigh** I feel like going to the opening of their fan club gathering
Liu Xin Ling - I finally managed to get a video of her 十分十二寸。Not a good video but managed not to move my hands for 10 min. I am used to holding the camera on my hand for 10 min - No 3 mummy also took around the same timing and i had record many version of No 3 mummy.
