Long time no blog

Hey everybody!

It's great to see that AnD is doing so well!!!

I haven't blogged in a while, so here's a quick one!

I went to a birthday party the other day. The birthday boy was Joshua's dad, Elijah Widjaja.

Joshua, Deborah, Jehnny, Elijah and Yue-Sai

3 Spanish guitarists and two opera singers provided the entertainment.

The cake was designed by Deborah. Elijah is the owner of the Bundcenter in Shanghai, which has a crown on top of the building so that explains this design.

Deborah was saying that she had another version that had the head of Elijah wearing the crown, but she decided not to go for that one as it would be too weird cutting into her own dad's head!

I had a friend visiting from Beijing and for this special occasion Fred "Da Soupgod" Kan decided to cook for us!

Anybody watched Kung Fu Panda? Fred is imitating Po imitating Shifu! Good movie btw!

Delicious seafood pasta!

Miss Lucky showing her appreciation

We headed off to a very local live venue called the Melting Pot on Taikang lu.

I went there about 5 times within one week as that was my friend's favorite hang in SH...that's a bit too much though... I prefer going to the JZ club. I went to the JZ on a Wednesday and there was an amazing soul band playing!

The Musical "Hairspray" just opened in Shanghai and the run is till the 20th of July at the Shanghai Grand Theatre. I watched it last weekend. I didn't get the chance to watch it when I was in NY, so I'm glad it's here now. I hope "Wicked" will be coming here in the near future!

The story is about a plus sized teenager Tracy Turnblad which dream is to dance on the Corny Collins Show, a local TV dance program based on the real-life Buddy Deane Show and when she wins a role on the show, she becomes a celebrity overnight. My dad just arrived in Shanghai so I'll be seeing him later, yeay!
