Hotpot Gala n Rehearsals



Karen's belated birthday Hotpot Session was on last night. We went to Tanglin Mall's Szechuan Hotpot Restaurant. I have been looking forward to this session. Just that I happened to get sick at the wrong time and that's why my mum made a big fuss over it after the session.

Look at WMY, wow...long time no see... getting darker and skinnier I think. Ooops, looks so much different when you compared this picture with her madeover. You can see her madeover at XJ's blog.. Hey WMY, I think you suit Hana Kimi's Ella's role yozz. (WMY probably shakes her head off (I think she rather goes to girls' school instead (LOL), she told me that she doesn't like Ella. She prefers Hebe because Hebe has the best voice among them. However Karen said that Ella has stage presence that makes her stand out among them. I agree totally!!!)



What made Karen seem so amused?



As usual WMY was delighted to play as the main chef in our group.

Do you notice something? The 2nd leading star wasn't seen and that's XJ. She worked late and I smsed her at about 9pm telling her that her "Ah Chun Chun" was waiting for her and wanted her to come quickly. Of course she returned and said that was I mad?

I think it would be "madder" if she came at closing time. (LOL)

So in the end, we paid the bill and asked XJ to come in and eat our "dianxin". You should see the way she gobbled her food as if had not eaten for days.

After leaving the restaurant , we went to Coffee Bean for a drink. XJ sat down and ate her pie and we all had coffee. I forgot that I can be allergic to coffee because sometimes coffee doesn't make me feel good. It can make me feel bloated and dizzy and it happened again last night.

I was meddling with XJ's creative Ipod because I was so delighted to see Fahrenheit's songs were included. But ML didn't allow me to listen to them because she felt that I was being rude to the others who were in a conversation while listening to songs.

But in the end, they just left me and XJ out of their conversation and the two of us were happy enough to be left alone. We were harping on our favourite topics again. (LOL)

XJ commented that recently I have been very very high due to Hana Kimi and Fahrenheit. I told her that I used to be like that when it came to my Takarazuka and Chinese Opera just that XJ wasn't in the same situation as me. Now XJ is able to sense my excitement because she herself is involved as well.

SH, WMY and K only know that we are in such a craze but from their speech and expressions, you can tell that they are quite uncertain why we are in such a frenzy state.

Usually ML would frown at my craze but this time JIRO passed ML's approval and she is so nice to get me some info of Fahrenheit. She gave me a newspaper which highlighted on Fahrenheit. Not only that, she watches KO One with me and surprisingly ML didn't walk away. She would usually shrug or walk away if she is not interested.

Three big cheers to Mariko San. Mariko San is ML's favourite Takarazuka Star. Guess JIRO reminds ML of Mariko. (LOL)

K and SH said that they prefer Chun because they find Chun PRETTY and that made XJ so happy. Only ML and I prefer JIRO and I simply adore JIRO though I don't mind Chun. What about WMY? Chey, don't ask her...as usual. (LOL)



Hey my hair isn't that ugly right, XJ? XJ said that I was being petty because I kept bugging at my blog about what she had commented about my hair. She even counted the number of times that I mentioned. See...an accountant is always an accountant. (LOL)

Many asked me why I bear to cut my long hair. They asked what about my opera since my hair is cut short.

I just shrugged and said that I didn't want to care about it. To think that I actually saved my hair for almost 2 decades. I think it is more than enough. It is high time for me to change. YTC has already broadcasted in TW and probably we would get to watch the tape next week. Leader has obtained some feedback from her TW friends and of course the content of the feedback I am not interested to blog about. Feedback can be highly debateable and questionable yozz. (LOL)

I got a sarcastic sms and I just can't be bothered to return it. Oh yeah...I forgotten something... Being sick isn't important but to go for rehearsals is more important. (LOL)

I shall try my best in this afternoon's rehearsal though I may not able to relive my opera feel that fast. ^^

Time is just too tight and I can't remember too many lines......sigh....

Fahrenheit Again (II)



This time round, they are checking Calvin's and Aaron's bags!!! ^^

Please Let Me Grow Up

Mum called and gave me a lecture over the phone. Once again, she made me feel mad!
She nagged on and on and non-stop. She questioned me whether I had gone "idol-chasing". She mentioned a Japanese Boy Band and SHE.
I denied because I didn't! I had HOTPOT with my KH Kakis.

I am not the sort to chase after idols. From my blog, you may think that I'm some craze. Craze yes...in a way but not those fanatic types. I am more fanatic in buying Chinese Opera vcds and dvds. I went for the Fahrenheit and Hana Kimi autograph sessions simply because I wanted to experience how they were like. In addition, I have never tried it when I was in my teens. I was just plain curious. Just that I have been sick since the Hokkaido trip and my mum got upset each time she heard me cough. My cough is very stubborn. It is my weakness. Once I start to cough, it can go for months and my mum would start to scold me and threaten me that she would throw me out if I get pneumonia. This isn't the first time that she threatens me. Each time I cough, she would do that. I am indeed very tired to hear her say the same old lines again!

But I can't argue much because Doc diagnosed me that my lungs aren't working well and not strong. He also mentioned that if I drag any further, I probably would get pneumonia. This Sunday, I have to go for another checkup. I didn't go to KH for a week and now my Leader is getting mad at me also.

I have already told XJ to cut my Hongloumeng Excerpt away because I do not want to exert myself too much. March is going to be a very busy month for me and I have performances almost every weekends and I don't think my little brain is able to contain that much lines and songs. I better be mentally prepared as my mum surely jumps and I surely get more lashing from her. (LOL)

Mum doesn't understand me at all. When I was still schooling, she held me too tight! All she wanted was that I concentrated in my studies. I was quite sporty in Primary School but when I entered Secondary School, Mum stopped me from joining any SPORTS-related activities. She wouldn't let me join Chinese Dance as well. I would look at the dancers from far and how I envied them. The CCAs that she allowed were being a librarian and a choir member. If I were to join Chinese Dance, perhaps my movements would be more graceful. I only started to learn Chinese Opera after Secondary 4 when I was 16. Learning Chinese Opera was a decision that both my parents deeply regretted because they never expected me to carry on for so many years. For years, they have tried numberous ways and means to stop me from going to KH. They would insult, humiliate , scold , nag and even resorted to freezing my pocket money just to weaken my will to go to KH. Yet I still strive on. Now they are not able to freeze my money but they would still give me a lecture every here and then. For so many years of "training", I have become immuned to it.

Mum also warned me against having boyfriends when I was studying. She threatened me this and that...(Head Shaking)....Why can't she trust me? I'm not the type to fall so easily. I am not easily touched. Till now no one has actually touched my heart except my little cute BOBO Bear (LOL)

Sometimes I really do not know what my mum really wants...

If I were to get a boyfriend, my mum surely interfere. She did tell me about her conditions of a "Perfect Boyfriend". (Hey, I should be the one to choose not her. But mum is always mum and her words are final. Can I go against her without having to bag a title of being an unfilial daughter?

Let me name a few conditions of my mum's perfect "son-in-law". (LOL)

High pay and respectable job, salary must be higher than me. Cannot be too old, must be single, no "certain" nationalities, only Chinese and the list goes on......

If she isn't happy, she ever mentioned that she would try all ways and means to cut off the relationship. I know she would though she didn't make me a victim out of it.

I am not worried about BF as this isn't my top priority. My top priority is to work to keep myself alive and learn my Chinese Opera. ^^

I am not shutting myself either BUT first you have to make me fall in love. Without love and feel, I rather stay single. Maybe striking lottery is much easier than to make me fall in love.(LOL)

Dearest mummy, please just let me do what I want. Chinese Opera is my passion and to take away from me is to take my life. I am old enough to decide what I want. If you could trust me enough though I know you won't support me in my Chinese Opera.

Chinese Opera may not be everything to me but it does have quite a major effect on me. I am trying to strike a balance now as in putting some attention in other areas. Going out with Kakis, watching shows and listening to other music genres are delightful.

Recently I have been very happy with Hana Kimi and Fahrenheit and even XJ told me that she felt the excitement in me and it made her feel happy too. ^^

Daze & Drowsy

The medicine makes me feel tired and drowsy. The whole day I was in a daze thinking about Ella and Fahrenheit. (LOL)

Last night's newspapers highlighted Fahrenheit and I was quite excited about it. XJ smsed me too asking me to go and buy.

Hey AC & XJ, if we have time for LC, we can even watch Fahrenheit together...(LOL)

I doubt so that we have spare time as most weekends will be used up for rehearsals.

I was telling ML that recently I have no opera feel...The Hana Kimi's craze isn't over yet. I'm looking forward to EP 12. This show really rocks.

I didn't go to KH since last Thursday because I was down with a very bad flu. I can't sing even now. I have already missed 4 rehearsals. Guess Leader is gonna be very mad at me.

Now my hair is getting better, maybe I'm getting used to it now though XJ said that my hair isn't that nice. Perhaps I need to style it abit and probably it would look much better.

Tomorrow is HOTPOT day! Hurray!!!!

I remembered telling XJ that I wanna eat HOTPOT and XJ said that she had no time and asked me to wait for KH's HOTPOT day. Now I don't have to wait that long!!! Yeah!!!

Now I have 3 fanclubs. The first fanclub is Ye Qing, the second one is Aran Kei and the newest fanclub that I joined is Jiro's. (^_^)

I am so happy!!!!!!!!!!^^

Besides the effects of the medicine, guess happiness also adds in. No wonder I have been in a daze lately. ^^

Surprise!!!



Thank you Suyin!!!!
