one of the bucket list experiences - cirque du soleil

Yesterday I went to see Varekai, the extraordinary show by Cirque du Soleil, which I believe is the most famous circus arts performing group in the world. I remembered that Cirque du Soleil was first introduced to the public in Taiwan by PTS when their show was broadcasted as a holiday special during the lunar new year's eve, and it continued for several years. They first came to Taipei in 2009 with Alegría, which was a hugh hit with the tickets sold out rapidly. They this year they return with Varekai, and is still very popular. (I think Taiwanese people are really trendy in some ways.) For me, at first I didn't really want to spend that much money to see the show because I've been watched many of the other productions from Cirque du Soleil on tv. One of my friend asked me if I wanted to go, and I thought I didn't have a better excuse to say no (other than saving money :s). It turned that I have to buy her a dinner cause seeing the performance live is nothing like seeing it on tv. I was like OMG and WOW and LOL all the time! It's not only about seeing a great show which including incredible performing skills, creative designs, and great imagination. But it's about seeing the successful cooperation of so many people around the world. It is just BEAUTIFUL. And it makes me want to join the circus. For those who haven't seen any single show by Cirque du Soleil, believe me, you should put it on your bucket list. (btw I don't get paid writing this, if you want to know ;p)
