933 long hu bang is coming out =)) hope my song doesn't slide of the charts haha

ohs, ii was reading xueer's blog and it wrote this about december babies:

ii seriously think it's kinda true! oh and ii dont type like a twit lar.. only got 'ii' and 'uu' that's all.. thanks.

gotta go for the rehearsals already! running late! cya!!

before the competition, ii was this really quiet guy you really wouldn't ever notice. hard to visualise isn't it, especially when the zhiyang everyone sees now is super talkative and chitchattery =))

wells, seriously, everyday ii am reminded of the competition that has allowed me to gain so many experiences and so many friends. Unforgettably, they are going to be part of my life forever!

It was the last semi-finals before the entering into the finals that i sang the David Tao song of Jiu Shi Ai Ni. Definitely, that night was totally unforgettable and one can't keep being reminded of the tension that night, even before the finals was like.

today, i went back to high school to collect the photos the reporters had taken on that night. It was really sweet looking back at all these past recollections. I guess I shan't keep blogging already. Just let the pictures do the talking.

witness the power of blogs wor.. seriously like one thing's that.. ii totally didn't noe dat if ii blogged about smth, ii would really really geddit >.<>.< *touched*

I GOT 24/25 FOR MY ECONS TEST!!!!!! *flying* *soaring* OKAY FINE it wasn't a difficult test -.-'' but oii!! ii din take it for the first 3 months kays!! so it was like.. a miracle that my first test for a subject ii had no idea wad it was about was 24/25 (and controversely ii sorta failed my physics hurr -.- and after looking at the qns again for physics, they were really simple ZZZ nvm, BACK TO ECONS!) weee happy happy!

den besides this FIRST time thingy.. ii finally got back settlin back into playin maple.. well.. part-time like.. mayb an hr a day or smth cos my jies and kors who love me dear haha and ii love dem dear are playing =)) anyways.. ii played the whole of ytd lars.. which onii got me ONE lvl -.- from 46 --> 47 so stupid.. ii think ii seriously need a 2x exp card or smth.. well, actually my character was STAGNANT at lvl 46 for how many months? FOUR (due to the course of the competition.. if sayin strictly it was actually about 6 months instead of 4 but.. nvm) yea.. and can u imagine how much it has actually GROWN? the whole of maple oh puhlease.. it even has 3rd job now.. >.> geex.. i'm totally lagging behind -.-

oh wells..

den to this totally irrelevant topic.. cheese..

hamster came about cos ii liked cheesecake too -.-
dont u think so?
hamster = some sorta mouse too
mice = like cheese
zhiyang = love cheesecake
l0ls uu tell me, how to put all these links together?
hamster = zhiyang
ii seriously think that all this was planned b4hand! HAHAHA
okays i'm just being stupid..

oh wells, anyways! ii have decided that when ii get the time! ii shall go get my orange shoelaces (which ii still have no idea where to find) and my pencil box (which ii dunno wad to buy either) AND find some cute new flavour of cheesecake or smth (dat's not too heaty or i'll get a bad throat again hahaha) =)) wells.. dat's wad i'm gonna do.. ii hope soon.. =D

<3 my fans.. missing everyone =(( sighh

ooo.. ii just realised my song's STILL ON THE BOARD OF 933!! although sad lars.. dropped down by 1.. from 19 to 20.. o.O but okays, afterall it is extremely strong competition from EVERYONE else l0ls.. i'm lucky to have the song still in the board right? though ii do hope it will rise instead of fall la l0ls.. =X

uu noe, everyday ii keep thinking of THIS:

wanting a Billabong PENCIL CASE omg.. as uu guys noe, my pencil case is TOTALLY unglam and rotting away.. hahaha den everday ii keep thinkin when will ii have the time to shop for a nice billabong pencil case.. sometimes billabong designs don look nice.. for example:

cos the word Billabong and those scribbles ii just think is ugly o.O prefer stuff like

where the scribbles look NEATER and the word billabong looks way nicer.. -.- OH WELL, my crave for a billabong pencil case is going bonkers hahaha ii think ii might go shop for one soon.. mayb on labour day or smth hahaha when ii get the time =))

there! longer post lers hahaha =))

err? it's sorta weird to have ppl say that they saw me going for church service (when ii havent stepped into a church for ii dunno how many years) and it's weird dat ppl say i'm going for NY funfair when everything's unconfirmed and accordingly most probably i'm unable to make it to the NY funfair o.o hmmms.. hope that cleared things up

[edit] oops forgot to add the title well, this song's by TANK =))
我们小时候 [/edit] <-- (this idea adapted from fiona ii think hahaa well, i'm acknowledging her =)) haha

小时候我总会这样牵着你的手
只是盼望能够在你的身边守候
为了保护你不小心割破手指头
这个小伤却让你泪流心痛

长大后我们越来越远
分隔地球的两边
何时才能够见面
熟悉微笑的脸

回忆起我们小时候
闭上眼就能够感受
在我们心中慢慢流动的温柔
离开了我们小时候
现在你会不会想我
也许你找到一个人为你守候
我瞭了

回忆起我们小时后
闭上眼就能够感受
站在窗前跟你说了晚安就走
(den he does this so niiice ohhhhh~~)
离开了我们小时候 现在的你不在想我
这个时候 我瞭了

BY NOW
校园Superstar
Class of 2006

2006 年我们那一班
有共同的目标
我们一起努力
一起追逐梦想

it's been such a blast.. one moment you're standing on stage, scared outta ur wits as everyone has put their dearest hopes on you.. and the next moment you're crowned the very first Campus Superstar.. like.. omg.

seriously.. it's not the title dat pushed me forward to fulfil this dream, but it was the people that was part of this entire 工程 ii can't believe i'm crying while i'm typing this.. sigh..

it was us, the 20 contestants that have made this competition such a worthwhile one, it was them who shared my woes, my joy, everything together..
and for every week, the bestest of the best dat we see, 方老师.. who groomed all 20 of us to become who we are now,
then, the judges, who watched us grow and mature and improve and strive harder to achieve greater results
besides us, there were our fans, especially deon, casey, kejing, ruiling and gang.. who was there from the very start and i'd never noe we'd be this close till now..
and then my fans, especially szehui, yi shan, mabel, jiemin, etc. (sorry if ii dont put ur name here cos ii hope it'll go on and on) cos they were always there waiting for me to report everytime ii went mdc..
and there was the mediacorp crew, yonghua jie, kerry jie, LYN JIE! omg.. den our cameraman, elgin korkor, chao da skin korkor (hee) and so so so many more ppl..
my frens, those dat disliked me, criticised me, hated me or those that were there for me, with me throughout the whole campus journey, especially 06S6F for being there every single show
and then Jason, well, yea, he wont be reading this but hahas yea.. our '相识' sparked from this competition.. hahaas.. and so many things memorable and special dat was only to him lars.. and me..
then my parents, Rebecca (my cousin who has sacrificed so much of her time for me), all the ppl who have voted for me
and not to forget myself.. for not letting all of you guys who have believed in me down.. omg.. i'm like totally crying again!!!!!

it no longer matters whether ii can get a recording contract to release my own album, which was the motivation that spurred me on for the first round of the competition.. but after experiencing so much, that factor had no longer turned up in my mind..

it was the experience of getting to noe so many frenz from so many different schools, different ages, different family backgrounds, different culture
it was the experience of getting so many 'first times', like so many gals hugging me at one go, first time putting on make up, first time appearing on national tv, first time having a singing teacher to teach me, first time being mercilessly criticised by ppl in public, be it the judges, recording company directors etc., but it's also the first time i've experienced so many first times at one go..
it was the experience of having the feeling to cry.. for countless days.. and ii noe this feeling will take a long time to settle down and calm down but though ii wanna stop crying.. ii hope ii can cry forever and have everyone crying with me together forever.. to let this very moment stop.. and stay...

ii shall not continue, cos if ii do, the post will go on endlessly..
all ii have to say now.. is that Campus Superstar 2006 has not ended.. and everyone who was, has been, and is part of shall forever stay as ONE.. no matter where we may be, where we will be and where we can be..

无论时空怎么换
最想念2006年我们那一班
