beautiful day. hmm.
2:22 PM
boring boring boring!!! its sucha draggy day at school...the french are hmm quite inefficient people i guess. we arrived in school at 9 in the morning. but the tutors had not arrived yet. when they eventually did at nine fifteen, they went to get coffee at the cafe. and guess what, the venue still wasnt known for studio that day. its only like an hour later when things got started.
anyhow, its a relack-jack country i guess. i like.
we finally reached lunchbreak, and since we felt rather cooped up in school we headed off to a really nice park!
just glad that it was so much more exciting at night... its really lively, the fireworks show.. soooo many people turned up at la defense (coincidentally our site analysis site... see not bad ah we go for night study of the site too) it was interesting cos it was not like any other fireworks display. the fireworks are really low, and the grande arch sort of forms the picture frame for the fireworks... also, because all the buildings there are severely reflective due to their super-glazing... we get reflections of the fireworks on the left and the right side.. hence making it a.. umm.. surround experience.. haha.
also, there was musical accompaniment.. kinda like our musical fountain... and to various themes.. there were 4 parts... spanish first, chinese, italian, and lastly french... it was pretty good.. seeing how the fireworks artists tie in music and lights and colour and rhythm coordination... i believe it was a good half an hour of fabulous fireworks!
here's a video of the part that's the french theme. played to the amelie soundtrack for one part of it... cool beans! enjoy!
