Talentquest finals and Stardust2010 Semi finals
Woohoo~ Been awhile since my talentquest finals. Sorry for not updating here earlier. Haha. Cause I thought I should wait for the pictures to be upload by my friend. Thanks Salena for the pictures.
Whats a blog without pictures? =]
The finals for Talentquest. Ah~ Another voting competition. I just hate it. No offense to the organisers though. But I think that the one who wins it might not be the most talented singer or performer. So I did what I thought was right for it. I asked all my friends who came to support me, not to cast a single vote. It is impossible to win if you don't have a vote in the finals. Especially when everyone is pretty strong to have gotten into the finals. So a 30% votes from the public will be very important.
After I sang, the MC of the day, Peifen from 9.33fm. Said one thing that really makes my day. She said when I was singing the song "Superwoman" the people below the stage all had one similiar expression. =O yeah. Jaws open, astound. Impress! Whatever it is. Thats good. And she said even Gary Cao would have been proud of my performance.
Its the first time I sang on a club's stage. The venue was held at The Arena, by the way. The judges all gave good comments. And i was on cloud 9. Haha. Results were announced. The results for vocal group and solo category pretty much stunned the crowd, cause of the public voting system. The winner weren't who they thought it would be. I didn't expect to win though. Cause there wasn't a single vote. Winning isn't that important to me anymore. I know very well where I stand in a singing competition. Not because I'm cocky or proud. I still remain humble, but I'm doing it more for the experience and being able to perform on stage and impress people. I'm contented to sing and entertain and make people love the song more. To tell a beautiful story through singing it.
Of course, after the competition, we spent more money on drinking. I think we spent around 300bucks? Lol. It could easily gotten me 1st. I would have love to keep the trophy though. =[
But one more thing that got me all happy was, one of the judges, came up personally to tell me, I did great, better than when he saw me in Singapore Idol. I didn't perform well on Singapore Idol cause I was super tired and english songs just isn't my forte. He could see that. And he said, if my friends had voted for me, I could have gotten 1st or 2nd easily. That was great! I guess he felt so guilty that he had to tell me that personally. And I thank him personally for that.
But I should have allowed my friends to vote for me.. Since all of them paid the bloody entrance fee of 15bucks to support me. And quite alot of them came. I'm so touched.. I should have won it for them. And again, they felt guilty that they didn't voted for me. While i feel guilty that I didn't allow them to vote and didn't win it for them. Who would like to come support your friend and see him lose? Lol.
Sorry guys! But seriously! Thanks for coming! And "celebrating" after that. Haha. Love you all to bits. =]

Have I been busy lately? Sort of. I still have one semi finals for Stardust2010. Its held this saturday at Bishan Junction 8. The rooftop area. Singing a 3 min version of 世界唯一的你. Yup, didn't have time to practise. So I just picked a familiar song. Haha.
Suppose to guest judge for Kovan Superstar2010 too. Audition round. But the timing clashes with that of my semi finals this saturday. I'm going to try to win this last competition. Because I started my first singing competition and won it. So I would like to end my competition days with a win too. Competition is strong. So all the best to me!~ =]
I doubt my Ep Album will be out on time.. What with my competitions and random stuff.. Will try to get it done ASAP. Sorry for the wait. Hope it is worth it for you~
Thank God for the voice He has given me, hope I put it to good use. Have a nice weekend! God Bless! =]
