Update...

Hey frens...

Thank you all once again for the encouragement! =)

I think many of u know about this le... I'm in the finals! =)

I received the news on Wednesday, at about 5plus in the late afternoon...the organiser of the competition called me and told me that I've been included in the finals.

Reason 1: She said all of us had done a great job.

Reason 2: She said our results were very close, so after reviewing, they had decided to increase the number of finalists from 12 to 15. She told me that initially I lost out in the audience voting part, that's why I could not get into Top 12...

Ya, so that's roughly the 来龙去脉...
感觉上好像死了又得以重生...超夸张的想法...wahaha! Choy!


PS: The finals will be held on the 7th May tentatively. Venue and time etc not confirmed. When the details are out I'll let you guys know. For now, let's get our focus back to studies and books! =S

I've been told that I looked a bit 'Beng-ish' during the performance...oops...I will reflect upon that...hee...should learn to be more 淑女 le wor.. =S And my shadow looks so fat!!! Luckily it's just a shadow.... bleah...
And other photos I just look very ugly...this pic is the best of the worst..haha..and I'm not saying it's the photographer's fault.. (I dun wanna end up in hospital..) haha..

真的很感谢大家的支持和关心!

Hmm..我的标题有点怪怪的。读了之后觉得自己好像是什么偶像之类的,在感谢歌迷们对自己的支持和关怀,哈哈!(想太多)=P

今晚,我圆了自己一个小小的梦想,就是在NUS Central Forum 为大家唱歌。比赛,我失败了,但我知道其实我得到的更多。有家人和朋友的贴心简讯,哥哥和朋友们的拥抱与花朵,甚至还有朋友特地为了我的演出老远从别的地方赶下来看我表演、或是把project抛在一边,不管身体不舒服或多累,也都要给予我支持。还有一个好朋友亲自为我泡制‘琵琶膏水’让我润吼,她希望我的声音可以达到最佳状态,顺利地唱好整首歌。

我真的很感动。

如果说我不失望,那当然是假的。但是如果我哭泣,那绝对不是因为我无法进入大决赛,而是因为我辜负了朋友们对我的期望,还有我真的是被朋友的不断鼓励,无论是在言语上或是在行动上给深深地感动了。我想我应该明白为什么那些参加 Superstar 的人会动不动就哭了。

可能评判们不觉得我的表现怎么样,又或者是我输在人气不够旺,其中的原因我真的不知道。但是我唯一能肯定的是,原来有那么多朋友是关心我的,那就已经很足够了。

不好意思,整篇blog感觉好象太煽情了,我就是这么一个感情用事的人。哈哈。不过一切都是我在当下的感触,是肉麻了点,但都是我的肺腑之言! =)

Stop procrastinating!!!

I'm going crazy...in fact I have never been sane... =D

I have a lot of things to do and yet I am procrastinating...I keep telling myself that I must motivate myself...Jia you!!! Stop watching so much TV and surfing the net! DO WORK!!!
Can't stand myself...getting more and more lazy le...
I think I am just trying to run away...run away from all these work...but I can't, and I should not..I know it very well, very well that there's no way for me to run, and I should face these stuff and stop complaining SIAN... urgh... Pek Chek...

Anyway, I just went for photoshoot yesterday, so did not go for choir...choir practice was pathetic, cos Lp, Jc, Lw and I did not turn up! So few people...so ke lian...but heard from Hx that it was quite ok...just that there were only 2 guys, 1 base and 1 tenor...oops...but it's still better than none from either section turned up ba...haha
Poor geok and hx had to sing the sop parts...and they are altos! But I think geok is permanently a sop now la..haha...cos not enough sops! =)

Photoshoot was very slow, but luckily I met a few new friends, especially Luobing, who was very kind to offer me a ride to AMK, so that I can meet up with the choir people and don't have to eat lunch alone...hee...

Stardust semi-finals will be held on the 27th March, Tuesday, 6.30pm at NUS Central Forum (just below the Central Library)...there's audience voting...haha..
I'm still looking for songs to sing...must prepare 2 in case there's a clash with another soloist...there are 28 soloists and only 10 can make it for the grand finals...I want my money...haha..but it's more important to adopt 平常心 for the competition, I know my nervousness can kill me, so I should not think too much about it, just hope that I can put up a fairly good performance and PLEASE don't go out of tune and I will be very contented le...

One of the songs I may be singing will be 千年之恋 by F.I.R...still have to look for a 2nd song...and edit and send them by Wednesday, so rush!!! =S

Tuesday still got 1 term paper to hand in...杀了我吧! bleah...

This pic was taken after Impresario 2007..we are so supportive right? Just post this for fun..my blog seems too wordy le...cos I'm a very naggy person...haha..

Random rumbling

It's been more than a week since I've blogged...was rather busy, didn't even have time to go online actually....

Friday night (2/3/07): Choir performance at Ritz Carlton...ok la, we looked uncertain for Blue Moon, ok for No Importa, but went sharper and sharper when we sing 月亮代表我的心...haha
And we saw Jack Neo at the hotel! He was having a small meeting at the cafeteria...

Saturday (03/03/07): Impresario 2007! Went to support Ryan and Yingzhi...Ryan came in first for the Original Composition! Congrats! And he won a few hundred bucks and a GUITAR! COOL! Ya, and in fact he's the most good-looking male contestant that night...even the MCs are jealous of him... (one of them is Lee Teng..)..yeah right, the Super Host 1st Runner-up.... =)
Sunday (04/03/07): NUS Choir concert at UCC...went with some of the choir people...hmm...it was...probably cos I don't listen to spirituals and sacred music, so it's kinda boring to me..haha...but the guest choir, the little kids from Concord Primary were super cute! They were quite out of tune for 1 song though...hee...


Alright, 3 nights of "soaking" in music...the rest of the week was.....BORING! School, study for test, and pia-ing "China Econs Shit" (中国经济史) tutorial report today...took me 7hrs to type out 2000+ words...considered fast for my capability already...I love to procrastinate everything I do and slack until I can't stand the stress...then I will finish it asap...today's motivation is freedom and 花样少年少女 episode 14! I know the last episode was up a few days ago, but I like to watch all together at once mah..somemore no time...hee...
Oh, and I really feel that my eldest niece has the tendency to hurt herself..aiyo, 2 year-old kid nia! She was watching some DVD, and so she sang and danced along..she stamped her feet on the floor damn hard (bare-footed ok) and when the cartoon character tried to clap its hands above its head, she used both hands to hit her own HEAD!!! Being a stubborn gal, I told her that it's not this way, and she kept shouting NO while she continued to hit her head........
And my dad is kinda...CUTE? haha...he bought Yakult back...but in the end he offered me a hot, diluted green apple flavour Yakult!Yucks...it tastes really quite disgusting...I asked him why he did that, he said it's not good to drink cold stuff and he felt that the drink was too sweet..OMG...
With Huixian and Liping at Pacific Coffee Company (One Raffles Link) after performance! The Latte I drank kept me awake for almost the whole night!! And I realised that my eyes are the smallest..haha..




Jiechao and Loh Wei...one pure tenor who can't reach low notes that even us sopranos can...and a bass who can imitate Fei Yu Qing's voice very well in Qian Li Zhi Wai! Stunning..haha..



Ryan! Sorry, this pic is not doing justice to him...wait till he flashes his mega-watt smile! =)

My les partner Wheegeok! Haha...she's attached la...but she's still my fave les partner! Always laugh with her, crap with her...share all the happy moments...not bad...this junior, although know her for only about 8-9months? But can be so happy together..难得耶! hahaha....
