A Splendid Saturday Up Ahead!

Tomorrow, yours truly is going to the Deng Nai Rong Oil Painting Exhibition (邓乃荣油画展) at WKSGM, Jalan Bukit Bintang, KL with my mom and sister in tow. I am so looking forward to it now… it would a splendid day indeed. I sincerely hope my mom and sis would be equally impressed by the beautiful artworks of this famous artist… just like I do.


Some of Prof. Deng Nai Rong's oil paintings

My hubby dearest has graciously offered to baby-sit our boy - Aren’t he just sweet. Hence, we trio can truly enjoy this exhibition/outing to the fullest. Yay!

What’s sweeter still is that, my hubby has also suggested for another trip to the lake garden (10 mins drive from our home) for kite flying again! Whoopi! Looks like tomorrow is indeed going to be a fabulous day with two enjoyable activities all lined up *wink*.

This time around... we are going to test fly a HUGE Rainbow Ship which I had bought for my brother as a souvenir during my ClubMed Bali trip about 8 years ago – it has been collecting dust on top of my brother’s wardrobe cupboard since. Nope! he didn’t even try to set it up for a look at it – Sigh... how disappointing. Humph!.

Mom suggested since my bro wasn’t going to be playing with it… ever - we shouldn’t let it go to waste. Hubby was all excited about that kite yesterday evening, he promptly assembled it, and we all marveled at its beauty and at the same time doubting whether it could really take flight. LOL - it does looked somewhat clumsy though it’s beautiful (will see if I could manage to take a pix of it and post it here for all ok).

So lets see if I came back from these activities enriched and all fired up with excitement, will we. If time and mood permits, I would even think of writing about it :D

Tu-ta-looo! Till then ;)

This is cool!

Once upon a time long long ago in a place far far away, I used to join SGM activities.

Now they even have exibitions and plays! Hmmm... thinking of attending.

Have to pay or not?

Abbot ~~ Welcome welcome to my site :D

Wow, you used to join SGM activities too? So does that means you are also a fellow SGM member? But, even if you aren't - all are welcome to join. The more the merrier!

The answer to your question is NO - most of the activities are free (FOC). Especially the art exhibitions. Although some of the professional performances such as dance performance, plays or music concerts requires a small donation for the education fund. The fee ranges from RM30-RM40 only lah. Plus, most of the performances are held in the fully air-cond Auditorium.

Come and join, you wouldn't regret it - these activities has provided me with precious and memorable experience.

Hope to be hearing from you here often and thanks for dropping-by. Do spread the words will ya. Thanks.

Abbot ~~ Imbi center? Wow, that was quite a long time ago right.

Yeah, there's a donation of RM30 for that China Folk Song thingy.

Anyway, I missed that oil painting (Deng Nai Rong) exhibition due to last minute unforeseen matters. Sigh...

Hi people, just some updates on my supposedly Splendid Saturday… Well, let’s just say things didn’t go as planned. Sigh… We didn’t make it to the Oil Painting Exhibition on Saturday, neither did we on Sunday. Reason being, Sis wants to go to the hairstylist for a new hairstyle for the year – we postponed it to Sunday then, but in the end we also ended up not making it. Hence, I’ve missed the golden opportunity to witness the great artwork of a master.

So how did I spend my Saturday then?
We did try to make it to the nearby Lake Garden for some kite flying in the late afternoon as per the initial plan… AGAIN this was dashed, this time by a heavy downpour. Yeesh! What rotten luck.

Luckily, things started picking up later in the evening when I accidentally stumbled upon a pile of my big bro’s PS2 games and found something I am really passionate for… tee hee hee… will elaborate on this in my next blog. Ta ta for now!
