WOOHOOOOOOO....Today actually lived up to expectations! It's the end of block (NO PBL!!!!), Coursework's done and dusted, Got a nice new LG andriod hp, Watched my all-time-only-favourite-baroque piece Handel's messiah, Had nice grass jelly milk tea and 'Played' in the snow!!!! FUN STUFF.

The 1hr adventure to get a taxi in the snow was actually pretty fun....though it seemed hopeless just now. I don't really do recaps, but since it is not going to happen again (HISTORY BETTER NOT REPEAT ITSELF ANYWAY), I'll just recap it. Just coz it was so epic PHAIL on our part.

It all began (innocently enough) with our milk tea cravings, a couple of falling snowflakes and our trying to be smart-ass. Whatever it was, we ignored the empty taxi stand (with loads of waiting cabs) opposite the hk cafe where we had supper. Thennnn...we wondered about semi-aimlessly trying to get a cab in the most 'convenient place' possible....FOR LIKE 45MIN. IN THE BLIZZARD. WET, FROZEN, WITH SNOW IN OUR FACE. But....it was actually quite fun, enjoying each other's company as we raved about in fresh snow and camwhored. I KID YOU NOT. We were bored of waiting here and there so....we camwhored in the blizzard.

And we were almost caught in the crossfire of a snowball fight across sauchiehall street outside garage, witnessing a fistfight caused by an errant snowball that was cheered on by a group of siao angmoh girls in the middle of our group. CRAZY MANNNNNN...

Either way, it's not an experience I'll forget in a jiffy. ^^

BY THE WAY, HANDEL'S MESSIAH IS ABSOLUTELY BRILLIANT! I loveeeeeeeee the words and how the melody actually brings out the meaning of the lyrics so well! It's my 2nd time watching the entire oratorio and honestly, I don't mind watching it again. But....WHY DIDN'T ANYONE SING DURING THE HALLELUJAH CHORUS =( I was half singing along the whole time btw...teehee! Overall, it was a really good reminder about our Living Saviour, Redeemer and King! ^^

Anddd....here's my FAVOURITE PART of Messiah: The ''For unto us a child is born'' chorus. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MS3vpAWW2Zc

Listen out for the imitation, fugue-style opening, harmony, accompaniment and melisma. ^^ And of course, the very hopeful prophesy of Christ's 1st coming to this world to die for our sins, taken from Isaiah 9:6.

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder; and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
