Today was an interesting day. Well i guess i have to start blogging about the happenings of Chinatown. Well i was about to meet turtle and Ken and Chong for dinner and salsa dance class. In the end, Ken was sick and couldn't make it. Chong was tired and had to stay at home. So only me an turtle left. So for starters, we went street hunting for this little Salsa shops and on our 1st go - round the streets, we saw the usual Chinatown buzz of food, Vcd's, Clothes, CNY goodies and decos. We went around and found out the ver famous Nasi Brynai restaurant at one of the lanes at Chinatown. As we walk further, turtle make alot of sound effects. She said that she could make more and was planning dominate the world by torturing people that are around her with sound effects. You know dogs will go bark bark bark, and cats will go meow meow meow. This human turtle will go - lalalalal !@#!@# -__- hahah. I must say she might have a possibility to succeed dominating the world with it. haha

Well, after about 20 mins ++ of walk, we din find any shop. But .... we filled our already almost full stomachs with more goodies at Chinatown's Mei Shi Jie . The carrot cake i ordered taste quite good. I was very happy. After the feast, we went to buy bottled drinks and head on now to find again. This time we found it. The shope was called Xenbar [34A Pagoda Street]. Everyone there were dressed in long jeans/pants with leather shoes. I was in the perfect environment with my slippers and shorts. Nevertheless, we bravely ventured the new ground and found a Salsa dance lesson just going on. It was pretty simple, as what turtle as exclaim. But it was kinda cool anyway. After the dance, everyone went 3rd floor for a break. But b4 that, the dance instructors perform another dance : Rhom-ba [ shld be correct :P]. The dance is comparable to belly dancing. ha! really... Instead of shaking yr belly, u have to shake alot of yr butt. The dance to me isn't very appealing for guys to dance because it looks pretty funny to shake yr butt in such an xtreme manner. Well, the girls would look better doing that =P hehee

The instructors later conducted the Rhom-ba dance class. All u need to do is to buy a drink from the bar and the dance lesson will be free. 15 bucks per drink. Haa ... tat was a killer price wor. Turtle and I went up tp the 3rd floor and slack at the sofa, watching the dance class for about 30 minutes. B4 the dance class end, we went off to other places. I would say it was an interesting trip and its a wonder that they did no chase us off for not buying a drink or something.

We went for further exploration later. I introduce turtle to this "powerful" magician in one of the streets whom talk 10 mins of rubbish and do 1 "so-so" magic trick. Well, we could understand that he has to do that. Or he will have nothing to perform about 15mins. We also saw a snake charmer who use her voice instead of the flute during her snake-charming performance. She told us alot of crap as usual. The duh stuffs that everyone knows. I only din noe that snakes are provoked by black objects. Just like Bulls are provoked by red objects. Well the snake certainly seem alarm when the lady use the black pump to play with the snake.

I also ate 3 cheese hot-dogs. They very deeeliiiciouuuuss. Men even as i type, i could feel the cheese melting in my mouth. =P ...

Tmr is New YEar's EVe! HAppy Reunion dinner!
