The King and my poor lil' toe

Hi Folks!

As usual the weekends are packed with the fun activities... Caught up with the gang - Marcus, Swee, Kelvin and his girlfriend for a taste of culture in the form of Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical 'The King & I". I for one was certainly keen to see if there was any difference between this production and the one I watched at Her Majesty's Theatre in Sydney more than 10 years ago..



I must say that it is one of the better productions that have come to Malaysia. Set in the year 1862, this dramatic and uplifting tale brings us a story of an English widow, Anna Leonowens, and her young son, Louis arriving at the Royal Palace in Bangkok, the capital of Siam. Anna, having been summoned by the King to serve as tutor to his many children and wives eventually is asked by the King to assist in having his perception of a barbarian by the West, be altered. All of us had a hoot of a time, courtesy of the King's antics and the 'clash' between the East and West. Anyone who hasn't seen it should really catch it while they can... The production of the musical here in Kuala Lumpur ends 26 July 2007.

You might be curious as to why I'm also talking about my lil' toe... Somehow, I got 'inspired' to spring clean my room clearing up whatever cobwebs and unwanted stuff in my room, whilst carrying out an old set of speakers one of the tweeters fell smack right in the middle toe of my left foot.. I've put it on ice for quite a while now, don't know if it's fractured or not... Still can bend albeit, with a slight bruised sensation as you can see from the pic below.. :p Oh well, another battle scar to add to the cap I suppose.



Well, at least I've now got my room in ship shape with nary a speck of dust.. An accomplishment to behold off :D:D:D At least it kept me out of more mischief this bleary weekend, rain, rain and more rain... Guess it's something to be thankful for, unless one likes to see KL blanketed under a thick cover of haze, smog or whatever u may call it... At least when I head to KLCC to catch Die Hard 4.0 I'll be breathing better too... ;)

That's all for now folks! Have a great week ahead!!
