Being an exhibitor, I was entitled to 4 free drinks!

My plinth has became a bar table =.=

I went to uni to pack up my design today and it ended on a sad note. Alot of our works has been damaged or even stolen. Some of the works has been rapid prototyped which means it costed hundreds even thousands to make and all of the works has been created with the most care and passion.  We have dedicated alot of effort into this and clearly some people just don't appreciate it.

Many has chosen to take their models away before the show was finished because they do not want further damage or feared of it being damaged during the show.

My model was severely dented from people touching and poking it but it wasn't anything too serious though, I was quite upset from the lack of morals of some people.

Britney Concert - The Circus

I have pulled this blog out of the grave!!!!!!!!! It has been a longgg time since I've touched this blog because I have been very active on my food blog Sugar's Sweet Blog and it gets quite tiring managing the two.

I am going to fish out some past event and slowly catch up...if ever.

Anyway, went to Britney's Sydney Circus Tour on Tuesday 14 November 2009 with some friends.


Row 3 Section 9!! It's like...wowzers spot


DJ Havana Brown got the party started

After she left, the screen showed this...


WTF....

At first, I thought they were joking but the time went from 25 minutes to 19 minutes second by second...so we walked around to get some churros only to find they are sold out :(

Came back to our seats for some cam whoring time


Lucy and Me

When the show started, the acrobats did some pretty cool stuff

Britney finally came out at like 9:30pm


Ringmaster Britney

I didn't take alot of photos and certainly none of them are good as she was always dancing and the pictures always came out blurry.  Alot of recordings but I couldn't show it here :(


Britney dancing in (and on top) of a cage




Dancing in a frame hung in mid air






Alot of ending photos because that was the only time she didn't move around

Despite what critics and other people say, I think she did a massively impressive job in making this successful. 

The Circus Concert is a 360 degrees stage located in the middle of the arena. During the show, Britney and her dancers prances from one corner to the other for a full on 1.5 hours so I don't know why other people are not impressed with her efforts.

It was a clear fact that she lipped synced except for 'Everytime' because the audio sounded completely different.  Um...let's see YOU sing and dance perfectly at the same time. Give her a break people!
