Day 40 - Avenue Q

I went to see Avenue Q today with Adam at the Theatre Royal in Kent St. It's a musical about the lives of people and monsters who live in this fictional street called Avenue Q. It's kind of a spoof of Sesame Street. The show itself was funny, raunchy (definitely not for kids) and all the actors were very talented. I was going to see the show back in 2006 when I was in New York, but we couldn't get cheap tickets, so I finally see it in Sydney 3 years later! Highly recommended btw, 4 out of 5:)

After that, we went to see Funny People in the cinema. It's a Judd Apatow movie, starring Adam Sandler, Seth Rogen (who's obviously losing lots of weights for his upcoming role in Green Hornet) and Leslie Mann. The movie is about this movie star who is diagnosed with a terminal illness and so he starts getting in touch with people from his past and trying to make new friends to get over his feeling of loneliness. Its an alright movie, with lots of cameos from famous people, such as Eminem and Ray Romano, but with 2 and half hours running time, I found the movie way too long and lacking in parts that were funny. You could tell a lot of the audience were feeling a bit bored and restless. I give it 2 and a half out of 5.

We had dinner at Delima after the movie. It's an Indonesian Restaurant in Dixon st. Great food there btw. Been there couple of times already:)
Moving on to the next subject hahaha, what the hell is going on with the weather in Sydney??! Raining and windy non-stop since yesterday and this afternoon too. Hopefully it'll get better by tomorrow.
