Cinderella Update/Mall Talk
If there’s one thing I learned today, it’s that procrastination is bad. (Yeah, right!) Ever since the news about Broadway Asia’s Cinderella came out, I knew there’s no way I’m not going to watch. First of all, it’s an international musical that stars Lea Salonga. I don’t have a second of all – I am so there! But I didn’t purchase my tickets even after they began selling. I waited and waited, thinking about the schedule and that there were so many performance dates anyway. When my sister and I went to the Ticketworld outlet today, we found out that all balcony seats are sold out for ALL weekend performance dates. We managed to buy two tickets for Tuesday (August 12) but it was at the topmost balcony row. Talk about the least favorable location. But not to dishearten my sister (a big fan of Lea); at least she’ll be able to watch with her friend. As for me - it could be (Ebay) beginner’s luck – my other sister found two tickets up for sale; the other good news is, it’s on the “Buy It Now” category so I didn’t have to compete against anyone else, like what happened the first time. But the better news is that those tickets are exactly within my budget and they’re balcony center seats. It’s going to be on the matinee show (August 24) and although I prefer to watch on the closing night, I’m a little relieved by Lea’s announcement that she’s scheduled to perform on each and every date barring illness.
Anyway, after buying the tickets, we strolled in the mall to look for some things we need at home. I haven’t shopped for appliances and gadgets lately so it surprised me to see that the television displays now mostly consist of LCD TV screens. The smallest one I saw (25 in.) costs Php 29k. Then, we did a little window shopping, looking for clothes and shoes on sale and viewing Nautica watches display, although we didn’t really plan to buy anything. We went home carrying nothing but the clothes rack I bought from ACE.
I also must say that Mall of Asia has officially taken the place of Glorietta as my favorite mall. I just don’t like their cinemas, well except of course for the IMAX theater and the Director’s Club.
