PESTA ANG POW – an event that I went to yesterday. It is held every year and can be considered one of the biggest events held in UMS. This is because they are open to the public too, yes which means anyone can come in to watch as long as they have a TICKET.

Although this was a big event, it didn’t really impress me the way I expected it to be. There were only a few events that really impressed me. But before that, just want to inform you guys that I went there with my roommates and friends. There were six of us, and they are, my roommate of course, Yan, Sook Ni, Ching Hun, Shing Yeu, Chong En, and definitely I’m included.

The opening event was a singing by a few UMS students. My friend, Eeleen was in it too. The opening didn’t really wow me because their sounds don’t really turn out well. All because of the stupid microphones. Then they had a play on 12 chinese zodiac and it’s a newer version. ‘Ba Ye’ was in the play and, hmmm, he acted quite well. That’s roughly about the opening show.

In the event, there was another performance from Eeleen. This time, she was duet-ing with a guy but I still think she is better. She even played guitar which make her even better. Really fascinating. After that, we were stunned by the 24 ‘jie ling’ which mean drums. They were played by primary school student and they were cute and great at the same time.

Another performance that caught my eye was the lion dance performance but unfortunately I missed the first half because nature calls… hehehe… Their stuns were really dangerous and they almost fell but they manage to pull everything up. That makes them really great and deserves big and loud applause…*clap hand

There was another performance that I like it very much. It was the performance performed by PPIB Mandarin class. Although they were not Chinese, they all sang Chinese song, and their mandarin, I would say better than me 5 to 10 times. So phaih seh…

There was this performance from a local artist, NICK CHUNG, but I’m not sure who he really is. He sang quite a number of songs. Anyway, this event seems like more to his concert than PESTA ANG POW, I thought, but RM 5 for a ticket to the ‘concert’ is sure worth it, right?

I think that’s all for Pesta Ang Pow, overall it’s a great job.BRAVO, my friend. Forgot to mention this, many of my friends were the AJK of this event…
