Lat tali lat tamplong

Me and #Addiction went swimming the other day WTF.

In a lake made by Lat wtf.

Lat the Musical is based on the life (and comics) of… Lat.

If you’re Malaysian and/or grew up in Malaysia, you’d likely have grown up reading the cartoons of Lat, who I think is the most famous cartoonist in Malaysia.

We went to watch Lat (the musical) lately!  Tickets for me and Wombeh courtesy of Patrek Kuah.

Thanks Patrek! Didja know Patrek wrote some scenes in Lat? 😀

Proper pic of us.  Annoyed! I’m always going for events after work and end up looking like dog poop next to everyone else >((((

On the night we were there, we heard Najib and Rosmah were coming as well! (for non-Malaysians, Najib is our Prime Minister and Rosmah is his wife)

When Wombeh and I arrived at Istana Budaya, there was a red carpet rolled out at the entrance!  For Najib and Rosmah no doubt but me and Wombeh stepped all over it while climbing the steps up to the entrance wtf.

Thought we were late but Najib and crew were even later lo!

So I tweeted “#tanyanajib dude where are you? Lat the musical can’t start without you wei” HAHAHAHAHA I AM QUITE WITTY AH IF I DO SAY SO MYSELF

Sorry non-Malaysians again you might not get the context again.

#tanyanajib is a Twitter hashtag that trended for a while in Malaysia.  It means “Ask Najib”.  Najib (trying to connect with people through social media no doubt) invited Malaysians to ask him anything on Twitter using that hashtag.  Sadly I don’t think he really replied most of the questions…did he?

Anyway Najib + entourage arrives!  Me and Cheesie just wanted a moment of fame and tried to camwhore with Najib WTF.  Like you know trying to do the opposite of a photobomb.  Clearly didn’t work.

But then we got into the theater and realized that we were sitting in front of them!

F Najib’s L must be thinking who are these two idiots who keep pointing camera at him and making exaggerated faces wtf.

FTS I just realized nobody famous is in this picture either (except us WTF)

Why our Opposite Photobomb skills so bad!

(pun not intended and not related to any Mongolians)

No pictures of the musical out of respect to everyone else in the theater.

But it was amazing!  The plot was just okay to be honest because it’s based on Lat’s life and he had a pretty normal life (for a famous cartoonist).  But I thought they still created a very nice story out of a very simple plot.

And the actors, the music, the costumes, the sets, the voices, everything was so good!!

I didn’t have very high expectations for a local production but the quality of it blew me away! The child actors all had amazing voices already, don’t even say the adults.  And the whole musical came with a feel good muhibbah vibe that is present in all Lat’s cartoons anyway 🙂

I iz sorry for looking down on local productions *looks down.

Go try to catch it if you haven’t!  It runs till 5 April and you can get tickets here.

Wombeh said it’s the best musical he’s ever watched even better than Wicked WTF.

No la nothing beats Wicked! But it’s nearly as good really 🙂

Oh and if you notice, Wombeh got all dressed up for this because for Michael Buble’s concert, he went as a phillistine in tshirt and shorts and Crocs wtf.

Us!

Oh remember my trip to Japan?  We had to cancel it to avoid our parents going berserk with worry 🙁  But the good thing is, Malaysia Airlines very very kindly let us get a full refund for our tickets to Tokyo and from Kansai!

Normally the refunds apply for Tokyo only but because ours was kinda a special case (what use is 1 flight back from Kansai to us if we couldn’t even get there in the first place) we appealed and got the refunds! Awesome customer service thanks MAS! 😀

One last thing!

Something that made me LOL.

Excerpt from Knowyourmeme:

Beginning on March 22nd, 2011, 4chan and Reddit users started plotting an “involuntary” flash mob event by creating fake dating profiles on OKCupid and setting up a false rendezvous for single males at the Times Square, New York City at 7:30pm on May 13th, 2011.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHH DAMN FUNNY LA involuntary Forever Alone flash mob HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

They even set the date on Friday the 13th hahahahahaha

Wait…was that why Park Yu Mi‘s Facebook account was created?

FTS.

  • Yeah after work we all feel like crap because we end up all stressed out. But don’t look like crap at all, is all about how you feel

  • we camwhored with najib!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • Hahhaa I have no idea who Lat is, but it does seem pretty funny. And it’s really adorable how you refer to cheesie as “addiction” 😉

  • Reddit didn’t create that flashmob, /b/ did. I thought it was quite bad lah! Probably because I’m also forever alone and on OkCupid wtf.

    Tiah’s suit needs some work too. Shorter sleeves, slimmer torso – actually maybe just a smaller jacket cos the shoulders look slightly too big also. And make sure he never buttons the last button!

  • Yeah, I haven’t seen a musical quite as good as Wicked too. 😀

    Not even the others I caught in West End comes close.

    However, I would love to watch a Malaysian musical production.

    The local art scene is woefully lacking and it’s good to see stuff like this happening. 😀
