Noddy & Sesame Street Show


View from 2nd Level



So tired that we sat on the floor while queuing.



Celest looking intently/ YN & Xander

Brought Celest to watch the Noddy show @ Forum yesterday. The show started 1pm and we were still at home at 12.50pm as Celest was having her nap. Haha... Managed to flag a cab fast BUT the driver was driving vvvvvv slowly as he just picked up a call while driving off. I was like hmm, i was rushing for time and there you are, talking on the phone and driving slowly. As soon as he hung up, I told him to drive faster as i was rushing for time. He did drive slightly faster but slowed down in the end. There wasn't much traffic yet he drove slowly. By the way, when I mean slow, I really mean very slow.
By the time we arrived, the show was in progress. I brought Celest to the 2nd level to watch as the platform level was crowded. On the whole. the show was nice and lively. It captured Celest's attention wholly. After the show finished, I went to look for Yen Ni & Xander and met Celest's GUG classmate Stella. Stella's mummy said that it was their 2nd time there as Stella loves Noddy very much.
Saw a lady started to queue up for the Meet & Greet session already and we followed suit. As Yen Ni was queuing, I fed Celest's her lunch- cereal. Wanted to feed her at MacDonald's but it was very crowded as the show just ended. We ended up sitting on the floor at one corner and fed her there.
It was not really a good day for me. Celest poo poo and I went around, searching for a diaper change room. Managed to find one in the toilet but it was the plastic, wall-mounted type which Celest dislike it. She was wailing during the diaper changing and I had to be firm with her by scolding her as well as rewarding her with biscuits when she behaved better.. Haiz.
After feeding Celest, I bought a chicken burger for my lunch. Been busy & rushing etc, finally got a chance to relax a little. We were given the Photopass @ 2.30pm and soon led into an area to sit down. We are Family no. 2. Finally Noddy, together with other characters, came out and when we walked up the stage for phototaking, Celest started crying and shunned away from the characters. She must be overwhelmed by their 'big sizes' as well as moving around. The emcee asked us to come back again later. Same thing happened to Xander as well. We waited till all 40 families had their photos taken before we made our 2nd attempt. I asked the emcee to get the 3 character to stay still so that Celest would not notice them, something like a backdrop. This time yielded better results and managed to take some pics ( not perfect lah of course, better than nothing after queuing for so long) Haha.




Our next show was the Sesame Street at Takashimaya, 4pm and we met up with Dal and Fi. Managed to secure a quiet corner to stand and it was tiring to carry her for so long. The music/volume was quite loud though since we were standing close to the speakers. Hopefully, Celest won't suffer any ear drum damage. The show was rather lengthy, about 40mins. Celest was excited when Elmo and Cookie Monster appeared and they definitely attracted Celest's attention.

Actually, she does not have any favourite character as mummy have not introduced. Haha... A pity that we didn't manage to get photography chance with them. Hmm, maybe can go again. Haha. Don't think daddy is going to entertain this. After the show, we went to a cafe for a drink as well as feeding milk to all four toddlers. Thankfully, Celest was cooperative and she slept for about 40 mins after her milk intake.

Daddy joined us after his course and we had our dinner at Ichiban Boshi, Wisma Atria. Think I still prefer Waraku. :P
