Too many words to say ...

哥哥's school's concert is confirmed to be on 18 October. Ooo... I can't wait to see their class performance. It will be sooo cute! I do hope 爸爸 will be able to take leave on that day to enjoy the concert. We enjoyed last year's concert a lot. I bet this year's will be as good.

This was one of the conversation 哥哥 and I had on his class performance recently....

妈妈 : Did you and your classmates practice for the concert today again?
哥哥 : Yes.
妈妈 : Did you become a stone? (Teacher's punishment if he misbehave. No more moving around like a crab. LOL)
哥哥 : No lah! I'm a crab. Good crab (shows me his scissors hands as the pincers), not stone.
哥哥 : 妈妈, you know Parag (his classmate) will tell everyone to enjoy our performance before we start leh.
妈妈 : Really? Wah! He is very good!
哥哥 : Yah.
妈妈 : You talk so well. Why not you say it instead?
哥哥 : I cannot lah. So many words to say. I cannot remember. (me laughing)
妈妈 : A lot to say? Really? Like what? You tell me then I'll know if it's really a lot.

He then began to recite what his classmate would be saying. Then he suddenly stopped.

哥哥 : Eh .... I cannot say. Too many words lah.
妈妈 : But you almost finish. Why you stop now?
哥哥 : I said ..... too many words ..... later I cannot remember.
妈妈 : Oh. You know the words now but might forget is it?
哥哥 : Yes. I be crab enough. Crabs are cute (start walking like a crab).

I think it takes guts to stand in front of a hall full of audience to say (even a short) introduction. And yes, must remember what to say on top of all the dance steps. If it was me, my legs will turned jelly and my tongue will be numb. LOL
