La la la...

Down with the all-so-irritating sore throat, cough & flu again. They always come as a package. Yucky! As if some virus's being passed around. First it's Ivy, then Karen, now me & my sister. Even Magdeleine's taken ill as well. It must be the conspiracy of the virus to launch an attack on us humans!!! *Duh, obviously I'm uttering rubbish again. Hey, at least I know how to apply personification. Ok, I'm lame!* Anyway, think it's the stress and fatigue that's slowly setting in from all the tonnes of assignments & projects.

Have been watching Project Superstar. Well, that seems to be the only TV program I watch these days. Absolutely no life since school started. Damn! I don't even go out on weekends, too exhausted to even open my eyes to do some shopping or whatsoever. Projects, FYP, assignments, school, jogging, eat, sleep (actually I'm still quite deprived of this..look at my darn big eye bags & dark rings and you'd know) & watch Project Superstar...that's basically my schedule every week. Simply no life!

Talking about Project Superstar. Kelly made it to the finals in the Singapore Indoor Stadium! I have to agree that Xinhui did perform very well, surpassing Kelly in a couple of areas. But Kelly was good also...in fact, I like her in the first song <回家> and the english number. Though she didn't deliver the last song <遗失的美好> as well as Xinhui did, I thought her vocal power reflected in the english song ~What's Up~ was really commendable and the first piece showed the versatility of her vocals. My personal opinion was that that was a much more challenging piece compared to Xinhui's ~Beautiful~. I don't see why the judges said Xinhui's so superbly good in her english song segment. The judges seemed to be judging on how much the contestants have improved compared to the previous round rather than judging solely on their performance that night, which is not very fair. Though Xinhui was pretty good that night, I didn't think she deserved that high a score of 42 and 44. Well, just putting my 2 cents worth of thoughts about Project Superstar. It was quite a pity Junyang didn't make it. Anyway, I believe Junyang & Xinhui's good vocals will be appreciated by music producers out there too:) I love the way Kelly sang the song <美丽笨女人> during the preliminary rounds, so seh! That was when I started to notice her. She seemed to have lost that groove now. Hope Kelly'd perform like before or better in the finals.

Kelly with Xinhui...powerful vocals they have:) If only I can sing as well as they do.

I remember I used to dream of becoming a singer. That was years ago during my primary and lower secondary days. I guess a lot of people do, at some stage of their lives. I'm no exception. I've always loved singing. Perhaps down the road, I realised I'm more of a toilet-singer rather than a performer. Haha! Singing's something I always enjoy doing, but I guess I lack the professional vocal training and so..not good enough to be performing on stage. And people nowadays have a weird mentality, you've gotta be stick thin to look good on screen. And you've gotta be pretty enough to bring about a "mass attraction". Madness, that'll never be me! So I chose to take a more practical path. Isn't that what I always do? Practical...sometimes I wish I'll follow my heart for once. Still, I'll always be singing in the privacy of my room. La~la~la, that's my favourite pastime..a life-long one:) Got the urge for a KTV session! Someday...when I can find the time.
