First, let me warn everyone first that this is going to be a LONG POST because I got a few things to blog about =D

Have not been blogging these days. Sometimes it is just because I am too lazy, but sometimes it is really because I was too tired. Was trying to 'conserve' my energy as I was supposed to be at work last sun but it was canceled.

Anyway, wanted to say that this year at American Idol I am a jinx again! Remember I said that I am always a jinx when it comes to my fave winning the title? Yup, it happened again! Thought that I broke my duck for last year and the year before... Sigh. But I think I won't buy Adam's album when it comes out leh... I like him a lot, but his glam rock.... not so sure. I have never been exactly a rock person. Prefer softer rock like Goos.

I also think the BEP's performance for Boom Boom Pow is awesome! I always don't like Fergie actually. I thought that she can't really perform live, her voice doesn't sound nice though I have to admit that it is good. But I think her stage presence in this performance was very nice. I kinda think that Fergie is the gel for the rest of the guys in the group. But still I love their music always.... think I will go for their concert if they ever come to Sg. Missed their concert for 2 years already. And here is their perfomance!

Come to think of it, all of the finale performances are pretty much my type of music. I like Queen Latifah and Lil Rounds' Cue the Rain, like Jason Mraz,'s like Santana's ... etc. Actually I think it is easily one of my fave finales.

Ok, AARON KWOK!

K, first thing I want to say is that the crowd control for entering the concert is pretty bad... The concert is supposed to start at 8pm but I think at 8.30pm there are still people outside queuing to get inside. And everyone is squeezing to get inside.... From the looks of the concert, I think the tickets are almost sold out because it didn't look like there were any empty seats around.

Then, I think we are damn suay because though it is centre stage and Aaron's performance is designed so that audience for all angles are supposed to be able to get a glimpse of him (his front, not his back), we ended up seeing his backview most of the time because he seems to prefer the people at the west side (we were sitting at the east side). Then there was this girl who stood up in front of us and blocking the rest of us behind and REFUSED to sit down after telling her to do so twice... my point is that my experience wasn't as smooth sailing lah.

But this concert did deliver. I don't think I will ever see such a concert again. The part where the stage turned, it is crazy. Aaron really sang inside it, which benefited the people who were sitting at the belcony. But it didn't benefit us sitting at the bottom because he was in this cubicle-like sort of thing and he sort of got lost in the midst of the stage. And the water splashing part was fun. It was obvious actually that there was a lot of planning involved, because the dance steps associated with the water were done to er... maximise the amount of splash. I guess Aaron is a master of that already.

He also had to speak in Mandarin this time because he wasn't getting much response when he was speaking in canto. Poor him sia! He still can't really speak Mandarin, so got some candid effects. The things he said becomes very funny because he can't express himself that well with mandarin. And he made a mistake! He said, "希望下次有机会可以回到台湾" (something like that). Then everybody went "HUH?" before he added on "以外的新加破" and said that he will be going to Newton Circle (he pronounced this horribly) to eat durians. Other than that he didn't speak much. I think also the concert is running late, so he doesn't have time to speak much.

The concert is damn worthwhile in a way, because Aaron broke my record of "concert that ends the latest". My previous record was Grasshoppers at 11.30pm, but I think he ended about 11.45pm. He sang 我是不是应该安静的走开" the last! Lucky we got catch this encore part because it was late already (almost 11.30pm) and we thought it really ended! At least now I got catch him sing one of my fave songs of his...

Ok, here are a few pictures I have took. Jul has a higher powered camera so I think her pictures are clearer. And worse is that my camera ran out of memory! I think next time I will need to buy a memory card with a bigger memory!

The first segment in the costume that my colleagues laughed and said that it looks like he was wearing a red underwear in front of his chest.... but the dancing is really amazing. Can see the videos later.

There is this monkey bar structure that he danced on during the second segment of the show... and he was on top of the monkey bar in this picture...


Aaron on a motocycle...

The stage finally turned!

Purposely took this picture to show that he was damn high up lah! I'm thinking u guys know where he is in the picture right?


Aaron just got out of his cubicle-like thing while the stage was slowing lowering itself down...

Fireworks... there were a lot of such stuff during the concert...
Aaron playing the piano... he said that he tortured his music director cause the guy had to place Aaron's fingers on each keys! Haha...
The start of the water splashing dance part... again, he is facing the the other side...


His encore part... he already changed into a t-shirt already. He came out saying, "我就知道你们是不会走的..." Haha! He is damn comical lah!

And the videos! Finally uploaded them! (You will only see this videos on 1 June due to the slow uploading, so if you read this post before that, sorry! Youtube got slow uploading!)

Ok, this month I am officially broke. Spent a lot on serums ($285 in total from my doctor's clinic) as well as a consultation with a GP that leads me to buying Centrum Multi Vit pills. And this year, including the e-awards thing, I went to 3 concerts already. And half of the year is not gone yet... Plus I still owe money... rah. And I need to buy a couple of things!

1. Crabtree and Evelyn / Loccitane Hand cream
2. Makeup base/ Primer
3. Laneige Eye Cream, activator and makeup base/ sunblock or primer
4. Clarins Lotus Oil
5. Memory card!

Trying to see if I can get some of the stuff cheaper anot. Haha... And I finally got my Laneige strawberry yogurt mask! Not exactly at $10 bucks which is the price Zoe has bought, but definitely cheaper than retail price. Happy happy!


My strawberry yogurt mask collection... one pack of sheet masks that Linda bought for me from her trip to taiwan and the laneige one that I just got!

My laneige mask collection... my laneige stuff is expanding...

And I realised that I don't need to buy masks for the rest of the year le... haha...

Ok, I think this update is long enough. Got a lot more things I want to say but I lazy to blog. So shall end it here.

Cheerios!
