Hello my fishy friends! I hope your Chinese New Year holiday was a fruitful! Mine was rather quiet, made a couple of house visits, played with a few animals, coaxed and cuddled a few little babies, chased and 'terrorized' a few kids and ate, ate and ate... =) I hope you all had a fruitful one... And to those who did not celebrate it, I trust you all had a well-deserved break...The esscence and purpose of welcoming each Chinese New Year for me, has always been filling myself up sugar-high with happy thoughts... Of know my mobile would be swarmed with all kinds of adorable greetings, of knowing I have my lovely family with me, of knowing I can come home on the eve to tuck into a family reunion meal, of knowing I would be seeing at least 90% of my cousins and extended family, of knowing we would be celebrating my Amah's birthday on the 3rd day of the New Year, of knowing another another year has passed and of being able to toss Yu Sheng high high and everywhere!!! Post Chinese New Year over the weekend, with the encouragement from my fellow Project Superstar 2 pals and good friends, I decided to take part in the auditions for the One Million Star Season 3 series. And boy, what an experience it turned out to be...DAY 1 - 16 Feb 2008, Saturday, 2pmAt the open area outside Plaza Singapura at 2pm, what a windy day it was...I got my ticket... Just 15 minutes before they closed registration...The stage was set...By the time it was my turn, and about 400 people later, it was almost 5pm. I sang Sun Yan Zi's "Wo Huai Nian De" and got rang out (the ding ding bell judging system) in 18 seconds into the chorus..Eeks... I have a super grainy video of me singing, which I could probably post up here when I find some courage to do so... Hee... And nobody could deny, that Singapore had plenty of talents to go around! There were countless of great vocalists, talented dancers and born performers, who strutted their stuff out over the 6 hours audition that saw even some contestants coming all the way from China, Malaysia and Indonesia. We even had our Malay friends taking part and a very talented 9 year old girl from the Kids Central One Minute Of Fame contest (who was pitch perfect)! =)When the results were announced...I ran to give Tricia and Peixian a big cuddle for we all got into the 2nd round!2nd Day - 17 Feb 2007, Sunday, 12pmThe enthusiastic crowd...Pretty Dawn and Kewei were there...Dawn got into the 2nd round too! Kewei did not take part though she was there supporting a good friend.So did eye candies Kenny and Leon...Jeremy too! Here with radiant Tricia and I...Kewei's friend,Sugianto,Lingyi,Dawn and Kevin - all through the 2nd rounds too! Dear Song Xian and my Shan Shan were there to give us support...So was Weiling (I was sooo surprised to see her),ever happy Rah Rah, funky Kailin behind and adorable Xueting...Kendric and lovely Angela,thank you for your constant encouragement...And... THE JUDGES! Would also, find the courage to upload my 'funny' (as what Jeremy Kwan said) audition video when I can ya..Hee...Jittery Me on stage... Hur hur...We screamed our lungs out when Sugianto and Lingyi blew the judges away with their performances and were awarded 2 out of the previously planned 5 golden tickets to Taiwan... I recall seeing 4 tickets on the table while I was auditioning and did my maths (5 - 2 = 3 + 4 = 7). 7 tickets!!! There were 2 more chances!And so, a 3rd unprecedented round commenced... I think about 14 of us of the remaining group were called up... I was the very last girl, the "109" whom they forgot about at the last second...Eeeks... So we had to sing a short line of our most "na shou ge" and they'd judge us again... Campus Superstar's Zhiyang and Yvonne walked away with the another pair of Golden Tickets! =) And rest of us were invited to go to Taiwan in July for their PK rounds... Yippy! Post event - When the reporters poured in for interviews and pictures...While I snuck off to have my golden moment with the very nice Kelly Poon (who was there to support her friend from Project Superband's MANTOU) and winner of the Xing Guang Da Dao Season 2 winner Lai Ming Wei (one of the judges)...He has a rocking new single out on the airwaves,listen out for it ya!ME! Post event - With a literally hanging man... Hmm...To all those who did not get in, don't dispair or give up on your dreams ok! It is heartening to know that some of you have been working really hard to achieve them, and I wish sometimes, that I had that tenacity and drive that you all possess in pursuing what you all like as a young teen... You all have my every 100% inch,nook and cranny of support... JIA YOU OK! =)More updates coming up! For now, take care my dear readers and have a great week ahead... Dong Dong Dong Dong Qiang!!! HAPPY CHINESE NEW YEAR to all my precious ratty and fishy friends!!! =)Its 04.05AM as I am typing this. Must stay up late late so my beloved Mama and Papa will live long long... (^_^)Any 1984 hatchlings? -raises my hand up- Its finally our turn after 11 years of waiting... Let us furry rodents make the best out of this year ok!Wonder how many of you all are still up enjoying yourselves with your relatives and loved ones... Its one of those special times which warrants a great reason for the appearance of those cute panda eyes when we go about our rounds visiting later eh...I have tonnes of pictures to upload... So sorry for not coming online with updates that often, nevertheless none of you nor this little space of mine has ever been forgotten... Will update really soon...For now, have a great Chinese New Year ahead!... Feast on them yummy goodies, drink more water, play and be merry, don't drink and drive, may luck be on your side for your cards and mahjong session and spend those Ang Bao money wisely ok...Lotsa love to all! =( My Toufu has been hospitalized for an infection...I have been having sleepless nights since he got ill...Nothing else matters more right now to me than for him to be well enough to come home in my arms...I miss his smell... I miss his voice... I miss his affection... I miss him...I just hope he will get well soon...It is hard being away from someone you love and care for so much in your life...It is very very hard...That's really all that matters to me now...I want my Toufu... =( Keeping Myself Sane... For Now... Have a bubbling fruitful weekend my dear friends... =) Friendster HELP!!!!.... I have to apologize to all of you who have apparently been spammed with some silly comments on Friendster by me. I must stress that I have NOT been posting up silly "HELLO" or "HELLO HOW ARE YOU!" comments on all of your Friendster pages (to all those who got them) - In fact, that is so unlike me! =)I seriously think there either is some malicious virus making its rounds or some screwed up error on MySpace or Friendster that has been causing these random pictures to pop up on profiles. Arrrghh... ...I realize that tonnes of people have been loading up these silly picture comments on their fellow friend's pages simultaneously between 29 - 30 Septemer 2007, at about the same timings, which makes this whole episode even more disturbing.If these might all seem familiar to those affected, I'm sure you will know what I am referring to... Hello...Hello?...Hello?!...Hello?!!?!?!...Hi, smile... @_@I was speechless when I saw this. Mum let out a loud giggle and asked "Who gave the dog dentures?! Haha..." This one ULTIMATE already...HELP!!!.... ... Anyone?On a side note, all the very best who are in the midst of the exam fever. I hope you all have been psyching yourselves up for the big days to come and doing lots of revision and preparation. JIA YOU JIA YOU!... Trust me, before you all know it, the exams will be over. And if you all want to play hard, you MUST work hard ok? =) I'll be lending all of you a Mermaidy spirit each! What has the world come to?...Really. I have been mulling over Little Nurin's case since the day news broke of how some sick bastard took her innocent life away.What shocked me to the bones were the results of her post-mortem and the brutality of the assault. It was even more heart-wrenching to read about the gruesome details of her death.And it didn't help when I chanced upon a partial picture in the Straits Times of her pale little face minutes before she was laid to rest as her grieving father hugged and cried over the loss his beloved child. I lost sleep that night.I believe the long arms of Justice will catch up with the beast soon. Very very soon, I can only hope.Sigh... Oh no... Like a pendulum, I started rocking left and right while seated on my floor this morning. My swung open cupboard door was swinging slightly.My electric fan was switched off. I double checked that.I straightened my back. Stomach in, chest out and waited quietly.My windows were shut tight.Then I stood up and felt myself swaying. My radio was switched off so I am sure I wasn't silly dancing to any songs.The water in my transparent cheery orange bottle was swaying.Tremors. I felt them again. And again.Another strong Earthquake in Sumatra, which has already taken away 5 lives, injured dozens and destroyed property. =( Let's all pray and cling onto hope for the people that this catastrophe will soon pass. Ancora Imparo After 2.5 years slogging, waiting and hoping.... .. . .. . . .I FINALLY ATTAINED ENLIGHTENMENT! Hummmmm....And graduated with my Bachelor's degree... Hur hur.... I am now an ELIGIBLE BACHELOR!!!! -_-Met up with some 'long-lost' friends... Pretty Chee Lin, Me and Kelvin Kor Kor. The stage was set at the Grand Hyatt Millenia Hotel. The Professors and scholarly graduands were present on stage, and the occasional addresses was rolled out during the hour. I was at seat number 0041, so I was up on stage pretty quickly. I swear I can see myself sneaking a shy smile in this picture. I had to 'dock' my mortarboard (somewhat like a salute) as a sign of respect and acknowledgement of the receipt of the certificate before shaking the presenter's hand. How interesting! My debut and exit took me exactly 12 seconds. Darn. Someone then affectionately called me a Kan Chiong Spider...The anxious parents, relatives and friends of the graduands crowding to the middle aisle as we all headed out during the closing ceremony. Something funny happened here. See we all had to sit on chairs draped nicely with white sheets that touched the floor, and were told to stash our personal belongings beneath the chairs to avoid tripping over them and as a means to hide them from view. When it was time for us to all leave the hall at this stage, I did not know we had to grab all our belongings from under the chair and proceed out. By the time my row had cleared, I was the only one left squatting down and furiously trying to yank my stuff out from under as my bag's handle got hooked under the leg of the chair. The usher who was ensuring the orderly manner of the procession was in a frenzy and told me to leave my stuff there and head out first. I only got back to my stuff 15 minutes later when the hall had cleared.While people were stuffing themselves at the post-graduation buffet, I got cuddly with the big mascot bear bear...Through it all...I dedicate much love to my ever-supportive parents who made this possible for me. Without them, much of my life's dreams would have come to naught. Thank you from the bottom of my heart...To my Angel for his relentless words of encouragement, patience and love, thank you for edging me all the way... To my noisy little brother who kept my spirits up during late-assignment hours, you are the reason for my hyper-ness at the most alien hours of the day...Not forgetting my hot Buddy Maine, whom I spent a whole year in class with and my late-night online company during which we would keep each other awake through silly chats on MSN and sharing referencing information while rushing out our assignments. She went over to Australia to finish up her studies after that, during which I felt a little lost whenever Assignment deadlines drew close. As you already can tell, I am a rather last-minute sort of person. Please do not emulate that.And to my final year classmates, especially to sweet Joyce, (the lady beside me on the left) who graduated in the class of 2007 - Congratulations and best wishes for your future endeavours!Thus another journey begins... =) Wrapping Up Some Weeds... Hi my Fishy Folks! I hope you all had a fruitful weekend? I had a rather lazy one, choosing to stay home and do some catching up with my beloved felines, feasting my eyes on old dramas on MobTV and spending the Sunday with my family and cousins. The weather has been rather absurd of late. It passes showers for 15 minutes, Mr Sun decides to shine his warmth upon earth for the next 10 minutes, and then Mr Cloud decides to throw tantrums and it starts pouring again for the better half of the day. Maybe all that talk about our Mother Earth ageing and global warming is finally beginning to make people sit up and take heed. I fell ill last week. Came down with a cough (which thankfully didn't rob me of my ability to speak) and a bout of flu, which left my little nose leaking for the week. Been also consceientiously cropping up some grainy pictures that I promised to share with you all too! Some random ones but nonetheless, a summary of what I have been up to over the months... So do bear with me ok? =)Also... I sustain a weird looking bruise on my leg when I accidentally bumped into the edge of a table at the office.... Haha.... The two balukus are exactly straight in line and 2cm apart. And after looking at them on a starry night one day... I had the sudden inspiration to:..............................................................................GIVE THEM AN IDENTITY!!! Hur hur....I also spent the time clearing my wardrobe while Siamy decided to make my pile of old clothes her slumber nest...My Amah's cat, Furby, found heaven in an unattended container of dried food biscuits...I bumped into that huge black dog outside Amah's house again... It probably is a pony in disguise... Hmm...I introduce to you all - TUFFY, my favourite black food centre cat... I brought Tuffy home for 2 days some years ago. I gave him a good bath, cuddled him to sleep and he decides to run away back to the food centre I picked him up from, some 4 kilometres away from my home, where he's been ever since. He looks like a black furry bear in this one. I paid Ivanny's grandpa a visit one weekend at his home, and landed up making a new friend next door. I used to own a pomeranian just like him, and his daintiness and sparkling character brought back many fond memories for me.He sent my heart racing at the first sight...I went over to a friend's place to visit some furry babies... =)This, is Toufu's Daddy. And the Daddy of those furry balls above. Whose mother isn't Toufu's mother. Which makes them Toufu's step-brothers and sisters! I have never in my life, seen or cuddled such pure-bred Persians. Yes there were very VERY irresitable.Look how tiny this one was... The guy behind is my cousin Weiming, no idea why he looked hungry. More pictures here!Ivanny spotted this gorgeous Swarovski Mermaid Crystal figurine and smsed me excitedly. A sitting mermaid in faceted clear crystal with unfaceted hair, holding a Light Creamrose pearl. It comes at a whopping SGD500+ price tag though. Hmmm...I bumped in Mr Ang Peng Siong in my office the other day and grabbed a Post-It in my excitedness to get his autograph. We chatted for a moment and found out he is playing consultant to a project the company was undertaking. He had a really warm and pleasant personality and looked fantastic for his age.And some unforgettable gatherings I'd over the months... =)Veron, Peixian, Silly Me, Tricia and SheilaWith my pretty girls... Our first year Anniversary is approaching!With my Angel and his wonderful buddies and friends... Special thanks to a nice Uncle for the special lunch arrangements! =)Ikan Bilis Cheng Guang, Lijuan and Me! They were the first fantastic people I got to know from my PSS competition. They were always there for my performances and my supper companions after late-night briefings at MediaCorp.Weiling, Kejing, Yanshan, Me, Jiemin and Xueling at my surprise birthday gathering.They sang a birthday song for me in the middle of Bugis and even bought me an adorable cake. I was almost moved to tears.Made some thoughtful new friends - Shawn, Kenneth, Me, Angela and Song Xian.My sweetest Weiling and Kejing arranged my first fan gathering back in March... Which turned out to be one of the most significant things to happen to me in 2007... Hugs to all! =)Was very honoured to be picked by Ryan (to my right) as the contestant he wanted to dine with in a contest held by MediaCorp. Fans had to collect a complete album of our Project Superstar 2 trading cards and only one lucky male and female fan will then be picked amongst the entries to dine with their favourite contestant. That's Peiyi (below me), who chose Prince Nataniel to be her date, for the lovely evening we all spent on Mount Faber. A cable car ride followed by a 6 course meal at the Jewel Box restaurant. Special thanks to Selene Jie Jie for arranging it and dear Rosemary who documented the special evening on tape! =)Ivanny and I were treated to the Phantom of the Opera musical by a very nice Aunty. I knew some of the songs by heart, but never dreamt I would be able to sit in for the sell-out musical.Goofing around... Hee...Guess that wraps up my little photo-blog. Till next time, tata my fishy friends... Have yourselves a goody weekend ya! =) What has the world come to?... THIS is majorly unacceptable. Utterly sick. Shamelessly cowardly. Why in the world would any human, with a minimal level of conscience, decapitate an innocent black cat, behead it, sever its limbs and leave its mutilated body in front of some shop? What more is he capable of? Should there not be a more humane and civilized manner for him to address whatever grievances he had against whoever or whatever it was??? My goodness... . .. .If this ding dong is lurking around our island, I hope the most ferocious sniffer dogs will hunt his stinky tracks down and take revenge on behalf of their feline friends. For now my dear friends, please keep your beloved animals locked and sealed within the safe confinements of your homes. Till the wandering spirit of the poor black feline, the long arms of justice and spirited-minded members of society catch up with him, shall we be on our guards.Sigh.... I got tagged... Right... =) True to my little promise to Ivanny, I will complete:The 10 Weird Things About Averil (you probably knew or never knew about)... How exciting!!! -rubs hands earnestly-Though about 70% of my weirdness have been thoroughly spelt out on the left column of this blog, let me try squeezing out more fishy details about myself to satisfy all your insatiable curious reader-buds!Here goes!..........1) I believe I am weird. If not I wouldn't be doing this tag hoh. Now how can I not share this with you all... First on the list - I love scaring myself. Before I go to bed everyday, I have this tendency to imagine weird shadows lurking in the dark, a big hairy hand sticking through my window to grab me (my Mum scared me once by saying that) and that some evil creature is lying prone below my bed awaiting for me to fall asleep. Also, whenever I seem to have misplaced something (which usually turns up after some careful searching), I'd scare myself by saying its lost and what dire consequences I'd have to face. Maybe major paranoia fuels me. Yippy! One down, nine more to go! - 2) I sing and hum everywhere I am. In the train, on a crowded bus, in the office, in the office lift, while walking, while running, to my cats, to my toes, to my hair, to the plants along the pavements... ... It is a very enriching experience and thus far, nobody has treated me like an outcaste.3) I dislike bathing. No I do not HATE bathing per se, I do take my daily baths and thorough scrub downs, but if I ever had a choice, I'd say bathing has to be at the bottom of my daily-priorities-list. Its ironic I know, but bathing seems like a chore as compared to swimming. I am changing this, for its good for me. So please do not avoid me when you see me. I do not smell fishy.4) I have to comb my hair at least 5 times in a day or I will feel uneasy. Its probably just me being neat and tidy, you know how first impressions count. I have a comb with me at all times and there were times when I forgot to bring one out, I'd 'panic' and find the nearest store to get one. That accounts for my every-growing collection of little pocket combs, 15 and no more counting I hope. Hur hur...5) I speak like a little child whenever I meet cute adorable humans, creatures and things. Like in a squeaky gentle little baby voice somewhat sounding like little Po from the Teletubbies. People have said I am in a planet of my own when I get all soft and sticky to new borns or small tiny furry things, it just comes naturally. I go gaga over little furry paws and tiny fingers and toes… Hee… Having maternal instincts may just be an understatement. It's a healthy obsession.6) I love to kiss animals all over. I love my Toufu, Noname and Siamy that I HAVE to kiss them everyday or I will feel uneasy. Especially love the crevices of their paws and wet little button noses. Kisses are the most universal expressions of feelings (whatever they may be), but I say I do it out of LOVE... I kiss strays too for I can’t resist them. I believe they are relatively clean. Let's all be thankful for the existence of disinfectants and sanitizers.7) I have a morbid phobia for balloons. Especially big round blown up ones. Bring one near me and you'll see me running helter skelter away from it. I am afraid of them popping up on me and I have this vision that when they pop, I'd go deaf or get hurt or whatever. I'd rather be safe than sorry. 8) I used to be so afraid at the sight of Santa Clause or anyone in a mascot suit that I'd cry out loud and run far away from them. I have pictures to prove this (from eons ago!), I will post them up here when I dig them out of my yellowing albums. I vividly recall the times when I would furiously struggle out of my parent's arms and burst out crying in fear when they were all ready to pose in a shot with these nice people in suits that bring a smile to children. Apparently, I was probably allergic to synthetic fur and beards I reckon.9) I only stopped drinking from a baby milk bottle at the tender age of 11. Hur hur… Don't laugh at me ah... I tell my Mama.. .. .10) I wonn't have reached this tenth point if I didn't think I was weird... =) Oh alrighty, one last one. I ... erm... I.. . Eh.. . I believe that Eggs are the greatest gift to mankind! They are the most versatile gems of the consumables. I love Eggs! Anything Eggy shall be divine.More updates to come! Been missing a whole commercial jet-load of people... There is always so many things and so little time. Hope to meet up with all you people soon ya! -winks and flickers tail around- Have a good week ahead my beloved merfolks! Yummy... Tonnes of photos to load up for all of you... But this had to be priority! Inspirational eh...I hope all of you have been well... -scans horizons- You all know who you are, you are always in my thoughts!I have been fine and well, thank you for all for the constant concern and messages from all you nice sweet friends... I have just been kinda busy with work and stuff, treasure chest loads of sorries for not updating in eons... I will be updating real soon again... Lotsa stuff to share!Have a good weekend people... And I hope you all have been happy in your lives right now... Do drop by to fill me in ok! Lotsa bubbly fishy waves of love to all! =( I can't believe Ishi is gone...He was a great dance teacher... A very patient guide... A star so down to earth I just couldn't help but marvel at the way he carries himself with so much poise and humbleness... A great friend to many... A role model... A talented guy with a bright future ahead of him...Let us all remember him for his achievements... For the fun and laughter he brought to so many of us... For being part of the fantastic band, SOUL, and for taking Project Superband to another level... For the good he has done... For the immense effort he put into his pursuit for music and dance... For the inspiration he brought to his fans... For simply being the Ishi many of us knew him to be...We will never ever forget you...From us at Project Superstar 2, this would never have been possible without you... To the years and beyond... Happy 23rd Birthday to myself...And much love and thank yous to all you lovely people who have brought me so much joy on my ageing day... You know who you are - you all have really touched my heart... For making me feel significant, for letting me know I haven't been forgotten... You are all so special to me...To my Angel, thank you for the company and everything else you have done... Your thoughtfulness and selflessness never fail to amaze me... Nothing material can compare to your prescence for you have been relentlessly and resiliently there every step of the way. I am grateful and thankful for YOU.I wish time could hold still during these special moments. I wish for all of you to be happy and well. I wish that my precious family and loved ones will be healthy and blessed with all good things in life. I wish that Dad, Mum and Monkey Boy all things wonderful in life. I wish that the world will be a safer and happier place to be in wherever you all are.To all my concerned readers, thank you for your concern and messages. I have been rather fine and well. Currently balancing my studies and work. Its been tiring but keeping myself occupied has been my other indulgence amongst the other cares in my life.My greatest regret would be to abandon this blog without bidding all of you a proper goodbye. So hello once again to all my faithful readers... I have not been gone nor will I be gone for a while more...~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Another scale fallen. A flicker of her worn out fins. The glistening ocean waves in the warm sunlight. She sits upon the barnacle dotted rock. The seagulls circle above. The crabs scuttling across the sandy shore. The sights and sounds of children playing along the shoreline. The sail boats bobbing along with the waves. Their sails fluttering with the breeze. With a longing glance, she smiles and dives back into the cold blue ocean....Take care people and much love and fishy bubbles to you all... Enjoy the weekend ahead... =) Breaking My Silence To all my readers:Firstly, thank you for all your concern regarding the rather aggressive public name-calling debacle that I have been subject to of late. Given the current circumstances that I am currently in, this is the first and last time I will be commenting on this in public:I had my own perspective of the day's incident and Mr Steven Lim had his. Unless you had witnessed this event first-hand or are a friend or family member of mine, what you know about the matter is but a diminutive, inaccurate facet of the events that day. The adverse reaction this has caused amongst his fans is most unfortunate, however I regret that I have nothing more to say about this as dragging it further will have no practical benefits for all parties involved, including my fellow contestants and everyone else involved in the show. I would like to once again thank everyone who has supported me so far. I am grateful for all the love and support I have received. I am extremely encouraged by your backing and I will continue to work hard. I will not let you all down. And finally: This is a warning to angry and psychotic people who are inexplicably trigger happy when it comes to leaving anonymous comments. Leave your comments, if you will, insult me if you will, criticize my singing if you want to - that's all very well and good, but I will NOT tolerate excessive abuse and harmful physical threats directed at my friends, family, loved ones, and I. Where boundaries and limits are crossed, I will take necessary actions where I deem appropriate. Thank you. D DAY IS HERE!!!... ............ I Officially Declare... I HAVE DOUBLE CHIN.... .......!!!!Omg. I look horrid on TV! -places head in a giant clam shell- Have a Break There was some news about the practice of Cosplay sweeping across America.

To my Angel, what you've been doing for me has been nothing short of amazing... You're simply the best... Thank YOU from the bottom of my heart... =)Dearest Mum and Pip, thank YOU so much for everything... The cough mixtures,the trips down to Andrew Road and back, the best self-brewed herbal concoctions, the encouraging words of praise and assurance, the 'marketing and promotional' campaigns,the CDs, the endless nagging and 'for your own good' speeches... I know I am and have always been your great hands...And since I needed a break so badly from the hustle and bustle of it all, I was so looking forward to meet up with Tricia and Peixian, two of the closer girlfriends I made during the process of the competition. These 2 very talented beautiful girls made it to the top 40 of the Project Superstar competition if some of you might have recalled from the auditions. I was really happy to meet up with them after a while to do some catching up over dinner.A little mugging before the meeting...THE GIRLS! Yippy!...I decided to bring them to a nice cafe in Bugis for dinner, which they enjoyed I hope... Hee...Adorable Peixian with her yummy chicken chop...The very hot Tricia devouring her pasta in delight...And me with my piping hot Chicky Pie with potato and greens filling!We chatted all night long... Laughed to our hearts content about everything and had so much silly crappy fun... It was indeed heartening to know how much support and concern these girls had for me. Friends are truly one of the greatest gifts in anybody's lives...And then Tricia brought us to a quaint big cafe just opposite the mall for some drinks... Its kinda hard to describe this place cause it has this overtly retro antique theme about the whole place. Really special cosy place perfect for hanging out over some nice drinks.See, even the presentation of the drinks was queer...Little old me had a nice Latte to get me through the night...While hyber bunny Peixian had a sweet sour Plum drink...Then we went trigger happy for the rest of the night... (Too many pictures of us us us... and US... so better not lah hoh)Its now intensive study time for poor me... I need a break really soon... Look forward to the performance on Monday! Thank you all so much for planning your schedules around mine to come down to support me... I really really am touched by the unexpected turnout... I can't wait to see you people!... =)~flicks shimmery tail and takes a dive into the deep blue ocean with a ku gua face~ Lending A Helping Hand...

Take care of yourself... ---------- Forwarded message ----------From: "Jolene Ong" To: "Tan Chrissy" Date: Thu, 26 Oct 2006 15:45:44 +0800Subject: A Gift of Life: 5th November 2006 (Sunday) Dear Friends,I was diagnosed with leukemia 2 months ago, and my girlfirend Jolene is helping me to organise a bone marrow drive. Thankfully, whilst we were organising this drive, my brother (and only sibling) was found to be a match. Nonetheless, we are still going ahead with the drive to help other patients in need. I sincerely hope that you can come, as well as forward this email to as many friends as you know. Thanks in advance!See you there.... :-)Cheers,ChrissyHP: 98159789---------- Forwarded message ----------From: Jolene Ong Date: Oct 25, 2006 10:16 PM Subject: Fwd: A Gift of Life: 5th November 2006 (Sunday)To: joleneong@kf.com.sgDear Friends, As some of you may know, my friend, 32 year old Chrissy Tan, was diagnosed with leukemia about 2 months ago. A vibrant and energetic sports enthusiast with a real passion for life, her latest expedition just before the diagnosis, was to Mount Kinabalu. Sadly, she will have to put her life on hold for now as she takes on treatment for her illness. She has since undergone her second round of chemotherapy and will have to complete 2 more rounds of chemo in addition to radiation therapy to fight the cancer. We are all certain that with her relentless spirit and will to survive, she will emerge victorious! However, to increase her odds against this great force merciless malady, a bone marrow transplant would be ideal. There are many other leukemia patients out there who also face the same battle. Leukemia is the most common form of childhood cancer. Many child leukemia sufferers die while waiting for a matching donor, never having a chance to live life to their full potential. BUT - YOU CAN HELP! Help them to beat the odds by increasing the database of Bone Marrow Donors. The more people that are added onto the register will mean higher the chances of finding a match for these patients and giving them the most precious gift of all - A gift of life. Registering yourself only requires a little prick on the finger for them to process your blood typing and IT'S FREE! To make it even easier for you to register, we are conducting a Bone Marrow Donor Drive . DATE: 5th November 2006 , SUNDAYVENUE: Aramsa - The Garden Spa Function Room Bishan Park II, 1382 Ang Mo Kio Ave 1TIME: 10am - 4pm As its name suggests, Aramsa - The Garden Spa is set in the beautiful, lush garden setting of Bishan Park . It is a very tranquil and peaceful place. You might even want to make bookings for a massage on that day to try out the facilities and enjoy a relaxing Sunday. http://www.asmaraspas.com/index1.htm Tel: 6456 6556 So just click on the reply button and say YES you're coming! We just need to know the number of people to expect. Parking is in abundance just outside the spa. Nearest MRT stations are Ang Mo Kio and Bishan. Bus services that stop at Bishan Park are SBS 133, 136 and 232. Do call or send me an sms to confirm attendance at 9187 3888. Please feel free to drop me an email or call me for any enquires! Warmest Regards,Jolene OngHP: 9187 3888 P/s: Please forward this to everyone you know. The more the merrier! P/P/s: The bone marrow harvest is also not that scary - any healthy individual aged 17-50 years of age can do it! I'm the biggest scaredy cat in the world so if I put myself down for this, it should be easy peasy for the rest of you ;-) Here is a link to some Frequently Asked Questions about bone marrow donation and also a short introduction on how bone marrow is harvested.SPECIAL ANNOUNCEMENT: We are pleased to announce that in the midst of organising this drive to find a bone marrow donor for Chrissy, her only sibling was found to be a match to her. However, as there are still many, many other leukemia sufferers out there who have not found a match, we will continue to conduct this bone marrow drive to give more hope to these patients. ABOUT BONE MARROW HARVEST A bone marrow harvest takes place in a hospital operating room, usually under general anesthesia (i.e. unconscious). It involves little risk and minimal discomfort. While the patient is under anesthesia, a needle is inserted into the cavity of the rear hip bone or "iliac crest" where a large quantity of bone marrow is located. The bone marrow a thick, red liquid - is extracted with a needle and syringe. Several skin punctures on each hip and multiple bone punctures are usually required to extract the requisite amount of bone marrow. There are no surgical incisions or stitches involved - only skin punctures where the needle was inserted. The amount of bone marrow harvested depends on the size of the patient and the concentration of bone marrow cells in the donor's blood. Usually one to two quarts of marrow and blood are harvested. While this may sound like a lot, it really only represents about 2% of a person's bone marrow, which the body replaces in four weeks. When the anesthesia wears off, the donor may feel some discomfort at the harvest site. The pain will be similar to that associated with a hard fall on the ice and can usually be controlled with painkillers. Donors are usually discharged after an overnight stay and can fully resume normal activities in a few days. More algae for me... Flu... Cough... Sneeze... Sneeze... Block nose... Sneeze... Dead tastebuds... Cough... Loss of voice... I sound like man... Sneeze... ~sniff sniff~HELLOOOOOOOO....... ~gruffy sexy tone~Please don't come near me.. Lest I spread horrid merflu germs to you all... =(Must quarantine myself.This is bad. ~disappears in a whiff of bubbles~ Furry Things Keep Me Happy Over the past week, I met some new furry friends. I get this instant ecstacy-like delight whenever I chance upon a friendly adorable creature. The bonus - it allows me to to give it a big warm cosy cuddle... =)This doggy was taking a stroll near Grandma's place when I crossed its path. It was damn huge! When it stood on its fours, it reached my waist. Its tail was like a busy whip or something and its paws were like human feet. Eeks! Big friendly giant nonetheless...That I couldn't resist the temptation... So cute! Then there was the MediaCorp Kitty Number 1 which I chanced upon lounging so lazily on the pavement on my way home. I heard from one the regular patrons to the place that this kitty has been loitering the roads for awhile now and such a darling it has been, that residents have been feeding and caring for it...Confirm overweight loh... But I like! So clean and cuddly...This one I MUST show all of you...I was walking out to the MediaCorp reception area late one night when I thought I saw a big foreign object right in the middle of my path. The scary thing was there were 2 glowing light and the thing was like moving across the road in an undecisive manner.Feeling abit cautious, I approached the thing only to find out it was a mummy cat carrying her little kitten to higher ground! When I finally got closed, I realized that the Mummy cat had dropped the kitten from its jaw and ran to hide at a corner.Slowly I approached the corridor that was mildly lit to get a glimpse of the kitten... And see what was staring back at me!........!!!! This little furball will be known as MediaCorp Kitty Number 2! So cute it was... When I carried it, it looked at me with those cute beady eyes and snuggled in the crevices of my arms. Don't worry, I was really gentle with it, I always am with baby furballs... =)Affinity perhaps?... I felt it... Maybe it did too... =)Thank you all for your words of encouragement, assurance and support through the difficult week for me... You people have been such shining gems in the darkest moments... I have picked myself up and moved on... Look forward to doing my best for you all on the 6th of Novemeber when I shall be performing during the Project Superstar first quarter finals... All other details will be made known in due time... For all of your unwaivering support, I am truly touched from the bottom of my heart... Thank YOU to you too, my Angel, for helping me stand strong on my two feet again and to realize so many things I ought to start changing about myself for the good of self and others around me...My exams are starting in the following week and I've commenced my revision. My throat hurts kinda bad from whatever reason but I'm feeling ok... Plenty of rest, water and burying my head and fins in my textbooks and notes would probably do me good eh.. Glad that the haze is FINALLY dying and that Mr Cloudy has finally decided to let his kids rain down on our little island... Take care you all... ~starfish and scallop shells~ Crushed...Exhausted...Drained... So many things have been going on. Much has happened. My eyes are puffy, my voice is hoarse and my headaches are coming back in throbbing waves of pain to make me feel worst. Maybe I didn't handle things well. Because people didn't understand me. Because I didn't try to understand people. Both ways, I still think I could have done alot more. Less for myself, more for others. I hate the thought that unwanted eyes rove themselves over my once cheerful blog I called my second home to me and my beloved readers. It kinda scares me now. The ambience here is now... Different. It just doesn't feel right.Sadly, I had to make a tough decision yesterday. A choice between 2 things I would have loved holding on so tightly for with all my might. I hope all understanding parties, friends and relatives will support my decision which I had to make. I am officially withdrawing from the Herbal Essences hair competition due to certain foreseeable contractual complications I would have in future with the Project Superstar 2 competition and one of its sponsors. I want to say sorry to all my voters whom I know many of as friends and relatives who have been silently supporting me every single day. To all the other voters I'm sure I have never known in my life, thank you for your unwaivering strong support. I know all of you were rooting for me to win right from the start. I am very touched by your kind gestures of encouragement and morale boosting messages. I know I have let many of you down. I am really really sorry...I am... =(Most importantly, I want to apologize to my Angel who has been doing so so much to give me his more than 100% support in everything right from the beginning. It was a tough but well-thought through decision I went through with him before we both decided this would be the better way out. I am really sorry Dear... I know it is going to be a tough time for you and no less, for me...I will make this up to all of you by giving my 100% during the Project Superstar competition. Many don't see the blood, sweat and tears I have gone through, but I will persevere and give it the best shot I have. I hope you all understand that it was not easy for me to type this out as my heart aches with disappointment in myself and laments on "Why must it be this way?" playing in cycles... I will get through this... I just need some time... Just a little something... PS: Thank YOU my Angel, my biggest supporter and my pillar of strength for being there for me through this. Sorry for all the silly things I have been doing, the mindless stuff I say due to sheer fatigue and a narrow mind. I know you have been doing so much for me. Unspeakable amounts of tender loving care that only I know how to decipher and appreciate. Your intentions, which have selflessly been only for the best for me and my well being, touch me so much. The hours you spend each night listening to my blabber could have been used for better things yet you chose to spend them with me. I count my blessings each day having YOU in this world. I will not stop learning, reflecting and improving because we have a long long jouney ahead of us and we both know we need each other around... You're the best... You really are... I really couldn't ask for anything more... Breathe In...Breathe Out... -surfaces out of choppy sea and gives everyone a big salty wave-Hope all my dearest readers have been fine during my short abscence. Sorry for not updating since last week, I have been crazily busy. Thank you to all who've been leaving me such encouraging and morale-boosting messages throughout this very tough week... I am still alive and well... Tired but still going strong... -flicks shimmery scaly tail-Special thank yous to supporters who have been gathering at almost every session we have had lined up during this busy week to lend us their support. You all never fail to make our day. Thanks for the pictures, sweet letters and jokes to perk us up after each tiring day. Don't neglect yourselves as well!I have been having photo shoots and filming sessions with the rest of the other hardworking 23 contestants throughout the week. Now that the professional stylists and image consultants have stepped in to save the day, I can take a breather now. Phew...I think you all should soon be seeing the very cool promotional music video we painstakingly put together for viewers as well as profile shots of all of us in promotional print and online materials over the next few weeks. If I look ugly, please do not flame me here ok. Be nice.The route to stardom is not all rosy...Trust me... Only if you're prepared for gruelling long hours, highly emotional settings, fussy people, backstabbers, rumour mongers and rigid rules, should you be able to rise up to super stardom. The one rule - Stay grounded! At the end of it all though, a nicely shot footage and a beautiful picture of you makes all that worthwhile. I guess nothing is free in this world. No pain, no gain.On a lighter note, we had our first wardrobe fitting done. And look what I got! :First Set - I've never worn such a short skirt in my life!Second Set - Simple and so me!Nice?... =)BOO!...Back on track. We had a music video to shoot, a medley of eight songs, hence the uniformed white-look throughout. Just a peek at the rest of the 11 beautiful girls:Stay tuned ok!!!Set 2 was worn for a fast number with simple incorporated dance steps. Since my feet have a tendency to knot themselves into a tail, I had the jitters simply watching Project SuperBand SOUL's member, Ishi, our choreographer, teach us the moves. Luckily for me, the steps were easy to do and I had only some minor problems executing them. It was fun once all of us finally got the hang of things. I of course was one of the rigid rabbits who either missed a count or knotted a hand or foot. You get the picture.Oh yes, I got a new hairdo during the photoshoot and filming segments:I had temporary curls from fantastic stylists from the Monsoon Hair Salon. Following which I had 28 bobby pins painfully inserted into my hair to hold it up. Yes I lost quite a few strands of my precious locks from all that pulling and curling, but I guess it was worth it. I looked like an expensive Doll off the shelves of a toy department!!! All I lacked were bigger eyes, longer lashes and a hefty price tag on me. Heee...Not forgetting...The people behind the scenes who have been there livening up our spirits and looking out for us:From left to right: Our minder, Cindy, a nice lady, Rosemary and Alan the intern.(Short term memory to be updated soon)Me with the loveable Rosemary and the very hardworking intern Alan.I even got the chance to visit a recording studio under the guidance of the very patient producer at Ocean Butterflies Music Pte Ltd, Mr Acid Pang. Hearing my own voice on record was plain WEIRD. I don't sound like myself! Eeeks!... But the whole experience was just wonderful...With some of the contestants...Then it was good friend's birthday last weekend:Happy Birthday Madeliene [first one from the right]... =)With the cheeky guys...She got a little red packet from the group, which someone obviously had his eyes on...Tsk tsk...I even visited the coffee connoisseur cafe for the first time for a yummy Hot Honey Latte:It was nice catching up with the girls after so long...I will end this post off with some famous eye candies I met all over MediaCorp...Don't droll over your keyboard lah... =)The flawlessly beautiful Channel NewsAsia new anchor, Cherly Fox...Our extremely patient and quirky dance instructor, Ishi...The very sweet and obliging bi-lingual host, Belinda Lee...The dudes from Project SuperBand Lucify, Shinya and Kuek...It will be vocal traning sessions for the next week...Then it will be the exams for me. Lotsa stuff so little time!!! More updates I promise... Thank you all for everything thus far, you people have been really great! Weeeee.... Whoa.... I got into the Top 24!... Unbelievable hoh?!

Though you were singing so happily, you lack stage prescence. You must learn to engage your listeners.Dawn Yip: Your happy singing made me happy too! Overall not bad, I liked the way you presented the song. Continue to work hard!Lee Wei Song: Watch your pitching a little and changing of keys. There are alot of "tone changes" throughout the chorus, you must learn to grasp the technique. Overall was not bad, diction was ok. Must take note ok.Anthony Png: I love the way you match your gold belt with your denim gold shoes! Overall very good for me.. Like what Wei Song said, watch your tone changes. This song suits you alot. I like it.Billy Koh: I like you very much.DURING THE RESULTS:Ewwww... What kind of picture is this?! That is NOT ME!!!
