High School Musical 2 Fever in Singapore!




Today, Sunday Sept. 9, is the day that High School Musical 2 will be on the Disney Channel here in Singapore. It came out in the USA a month ago, but it takes a while for things to be shown here on tv. Madeline has already seen it thanks to a local friend who has Slingbox (a device that allows you to see US shows live), but she is looking forward to seeing it again tonight. We already have the soundtrack and she knows all the songs by heart (and so does Grant from having to listen to it all the time).

They had a local dance contest yesterday, sponsored by Disney Channel Asia and High School Musical 2, that allowed kids to form a small "dance team" with kids from their school and preform to one of the songs from High School Musical. They called it "MY SCHOOL ROCKS"-and thousands of kids across the tiny island of Singapore tried out last month. The finals were yesterday at a mall close to our house, so Maddie and I went to watch them compete. The 5 team finalists were cute, and all under the age of 12 (our fav. team is pictured above-they were from the International Community School, great routine!) . Maddie was upset that she didn't get the chance to do it with kids from her school, you know how she is about dancing and getting on stage. :) We'll have to wait for High School Musical 3 to come out so she can try out then!

Hi Sibleys,

So enjoyed Shandra's IM to me the other day. It is fun to read your blog. I sent the address to my kids and husband again to remind them to visit your blog. All is well here. Jim just bought a "Big Dog" motorcycle to play on. I am enjoying my golf..my team won $120 last Friday in a tournament. Love, Aunt Judi
