no money no cry

at the advice of my housemates, i did not sing the hokkien song which i wanted to sing for the Multicultural week talent time contest. cos' it appears that most of the people there were either from malaysia or hong kong and would be unable to understand the song anyway. so i opted to sing 'One Night in Beijing' which ostensibly had something to do with multiculturalism since the female portion was sang in Pekinese opera way. it was so fucking embarrassing having to stand in front of a crowd singing the female portion of the song, especially when there're so many familiar faces around! to make things worse, there was a pretty long interlude between the verses and i was standing there no knowing what to do, grinning and giggling in embarassment, just wishing for the song to start again. they must have thought i was crazy or something. well in the end i din win anything and the first prize went to two African girls who deservably won with their performance of the African Rhumba dance while the runners-up went to the Malaysian Students' Union who interestingly did a hip-hop dance. Sigh, .there goes my source of finance for tomorrow's Godskitchen rave party...
