hi hi hi everyone! this week had been so tiring on me, i feel so so reluctant to get out of bed every morning to go for work. although i can choose to work in the slackest way for my dad n mum, i chose to be responsible up till i finish my task n go for my uni.

just in case if u're wondering, aft i fought with myself for such a long time, i've decided to go for ntu. it was indeed a difficult decision for myself. but at the very end, i chose ntu. its such a long long story that i wouldnt wanna repeat again. im sorry.

i spent the whole saturday watching one million star. n i cried the entire day. even if i didnt like that competitor that was eliminated in that episode, i still ended up crying at the end when the competitor had to bid farewell with the rest. one of my fav singer Rachel Liang Wen Ying got eliminated in a PK round; so that was pretty disappointing though i knew that she got in again in the revival round. Then came revival round aft 4 PK rounds, and when she sang, i just cried. it was a dialect song, n i totally didnt understand. but somehow, i started to look at the lyrics, and i just cried. she (Liang Wen Ying) started crying aft the chorus too. its just a kind of impact her voice have, that makes you feel what she's singing. n aft i watched 5 episodes in a roll, i realise 2 impt things.

1stly, its when you sing for the world, that makes your world go round. thru all the PK rounds, i can feel the effect of how a song or just how singing can be so influential. it makes u cry subconsciously. it makes you smile so sweetly. it makes you laugh crazily. that's how much a song or singing mean to me. n i realised that i really wanna go back to the choir to sing for myself and for others again. when i was young, i sang bc i can sing. i sang bc i enjoy the ease of singing. but i nv understood what it meant by "a voice that can penetrate thru the heart"; but now, i understand.

2ndly, i saw how much friendship can make someone grow. bc many times, its friends that encourage us and teach us as we grow. in One Million Star, the competitors get eliminated, and they leave their friends in the competition. its the togetherness, learning and growing experiences together that make them so bonded, and thus dread leaving (there's definitely also a passion for singing that comes with it).

so its just the same as how much we feel for our good friends. but we're fortunate that we nv get eliminated and nv have to leave, unless we choose to. so we have to treasure those people who are precious to us. dont cry when they are gg to leave or when they have left. be nice to them when you have them ard.

=)
