Let us take a look at "Voyage de la Vie"
Pheng
I was very thankful that I got the free ticket for Voyage de la Vie" (The Journey of Life) from my friend. We watched this theatrical circus show last Dec 12, 2010 at Festive Grand, Resorts World Sentosa Singapore. It is circus and magical show with storyline, music, theater effects and pyrotechnics.

“Voyage de la Vie” or the “journey of life” is a story of a boy’s metaphoric journey, or a rite of passage before he becomes an adult.

Enter the world of the mysterious Lantern Keeper, the charming Crystal Cat and the mesmerizing Diva along with extraordinary inhabitants. Explore the journey of the boy on an adventurous search to discover his destiny. An unforgettable experience of magnificent sets, glamorous costumes and amazing circus feats awaits…

A circus theatre spectacular, the story is told through song and dance, combining with the energy, physicality and athleticism of circus arts, resulting in a contemporary cutting edge performance art form which fully engages the senses and keeps audiences on the edge of their seats. The first circus theatre spectacular ever to be created in Singapore, it presents an international cast of circus stars brought together from 16 countries.

For me, the show is magnificent. To mention there were jokes, hand balancing, juggling, magic show (body was cut into half, still wondering how this trick was executed), piano playing, contortion, arrow shooting (scary), etc…

I would love to watch the show again if I got free ticket :D

Ice Skating 101
Pheng

On 13th of November, it was my first time to try ice skating. It was fun, cold, and painful.

I met a sweet kid who gave me some tips. She instructed me to walk in “V” form to keep the body in balance while swaying my arms. She also told me to bend my knees when I'm out of balance. At the end of the session, I'm proud to say that I conquered the rink! I learned how to balance and to skate forward without holding the bars. Also it would never be complete without learning how to fall.

I skated for about 2.5 hrs. I still wanted to stay but my body could no longer stand the coolness inside. So till next time…

About the venue: The Ice Skating Rink in Mall of Asia is an Olympic-sized ice rink making it the largest skating facility in the Philippines. You can enjoy an unlimited ice skating for only Php300.00 during weekdays and Php390.00 during weekends or holidays, which is inclusive of ice skating shoes and head gear.

Every 30 minutes or so, the ice skating theme song will be played and there will be fake snow falling from a high ceiling.
