whees. yesterday was a good day !

went for band in the morning for tutorials. a lot of ppl didn't come. xueli had tuition, jacie was sick, jeremy and charissa didn't come too. so during the main band tutorials, there were only gena, derrick and me. the 3 of us and it was tough to choose a song to practice cuz don't have all three parts. we played rhapsody in blue in the end. practiced a lil bit but it was rather wuiet today. don't know why. we usually made a bit of noise but ytd was exceptionally quiet. very different from the usual tutorials.

after tutorials, went back to band room to pack the shelf for putting files cuz the moe officials will be coming on monday so we have to keep the shelf clean and tidy. after that, i went down to parkway parade to catch the sg idol promotional roadshow with jessica !!

i reached there arnd one plus. and i realised that the queue was rather short. so i accompanied gena to mini toons to get a present for her brother. after which, we went to KFC to eat. while walking to kfc, we met huang lao shi. she was with her family. yupyup. and i was pondering if i should rly go for the roadshow and queue in the line cuz i didn't bring anything for him to sign. then it will be like very 'malu' to go there mah. but gena told me to go for it. so i was like okie. gena left after that and i went back to the roadshow place with jessica.

the queue got longer and i decided not to queue for it cuz i was thinking if i were to be that far back i would not be able to see the idols clearly and most importantly, i have nth for them to sign while the fans that i saw in the queue all seem to have stuffs for their idols to sign. it was still quite early from the time that the idols are gna arrive so i went walking arnd with jessica. i walked into esprit cuz i heard rob thomas's 'lonely no more'. joakim sang this song before during the spectaculars ! that's where i met elaine and kimberly. perhaps we went into the shop for the same reason ! hahas.

as i walked, i start to realise that many ppl are standing on the 1st level, getting ready to have a place to catch their idol. being a bit 'kiasu', i decide to go check it out. i met elaine again and i decided to get a nice place to catch them later on. i stood at the 1st level, not far from the stage at the basement atrium tgr with elaine and kimberly. they later went off and told me to help take care of their places. i'm rly thankful to jessica for accompanying me to this roadshow cuz no one was interested and jacie was supposed to go with me but she was sick. yeah, so i brought my sudoku for her to do. and since, the two of us are so sudoku-craze, we decided to do each other's sudoku book while waiting for the idols to arrive.

it was quite tiring having to stand for so long so we decided to sit down on the floor. there was this uncle who walked passed us and he was like saying ( i wonder if it was to us but i guess so) in mandrain: go home and study ( hui jia du shu). felt a bit paiseh having hearing this cuz i was like in half u while jessica was wearing pe which has the words chung cheng behind. so the uncle knew that we came here after school.. then there was another uncle standing next to me, saying "so many numbers". LOL. cuz i was playing samurai sudoku. which has 5 normal sudoku puzzles tgr. there were many boxes and numbers here and there so if people were to look at it, they had think it's like so 'chim' like that. hahas.

the production crew over there very caring leh. they helped arranged the sg idol bags nicely on the table. i love the bag ! it's like those crumpler type except that the logo has been changed to the sg idol logo. i especially loved the orange and yellow one !! it's so pretty ! and they also helped to test out the ink for the marker so that the idols can sign later. rolled-up posters were placed nicely on top of the bags as well as exclusive sg idol tickets in the bag !! the crew is damn attentive to all these things. then i saw them changing the sign on the um.. you know everytime when there;s roadshow always got this big big poster of the 12 idols? they actually use this permanent one where there's this ousted sign on norman cuz he was the first one to be eliminated as well as the word top11 finalists. so because now it was down to top7, i saw the crew pasting a new "top7 finalists" over the top11 finalists as well as some 'ousted' on those who have alrdy been eliminated, namely gayle, emilee, jay and rahimah.

yupyup. we sat there for quite long and elaine and kimberly came back soon. the 4 of us sat there, waiting for our idols to arrive and at around 3 plus, may came to join me after her comm meeting ended. we sat down there tgr and took some pictures(: daniel ong came around 4 and he started entertaining us, telling us more info about some of the idols like joakim wearing size 12 shoes, as well as him having a fever during his recent performance. poor thing yea? he also help promote a contest that's coming up, the dance floor which is a dancing competition. then the cameraman interviewed the first person in line. i think the girl should be from kc cuz one of her friends was wearing kc uniform. yupyup. she came at 12 which was rly early. tutorials just ended not long ago for me ! hahas. until about 430, the idols finally arrived !!1 oh my gosh. joakim is so cute !!! ahh !

the 7 idols arrived, and they were so friendly, waving to the crowd. i kept screaming for joakim and he turned back quite a number of times. got so HIGH ! he waved to us quite a number of times. and daniel started interviewing them and joakim said' my fans are growing BANANAS !' lol. cuz he's named the preforming monkey so we the fans are like the bananas?? LOL! they then threw the rolled-up posters but so sad lah, joakim didn't throw to my direction. paul threw one at me but grr. i didn't manage to get it ! waa...!!!!! elaine got the poster. i think it was nurul who threw it. good for her(x

after throwing posters, it was time to throw the sg idol bags !!! joakim signed on the bag that i liked ! the one that's orange and yellow !!!! but so sad lah. i can't have it. he threw it to someone in the queue. yupyup. yeah. after all the idols have signed and threw the bags, it was the autographing session. in the midst, elaine and me screamed tgr once and he looked up ! ahh ! so high ! he waved to me too !! hahas. and he was very nice too, he smiled for may cuz she was helping me to take photos of him. ahh !! so cute lah him ! she also took photos of the monkey posters as well as other posters of him !! so nice of may !!

we went down to the basement towards the end of the roadshow. joakim and paul did the booty shake thing !! but daniel ong blocked everything ! i could only see a bit of joakim doing it but never mind lah, i have seen it before on tv. i manage to kinda of shake his hands too !! so happy ! i shook jasmine's and nurul's hands too ! they were rly nice and jasmine is very pretty ! oh. jasmine waved to us many times too. probably because she recognised our uniform esp jessica's since she's wearing the full uniform. she was from chung cheng you see.

after leaving, may suggests we go check out the bus that they are boarding. we went out and i saw a whole big crowd in front of the bus. i was smarter. hahas. i stood near the traffic light, hoping that it will turn red and the bus will stop in front of me. and true enough, it did ! cuz there were some delays in the car moving so when i saw the traffic light turn amber, i was so hyper !! cuz it rly stop in front of me ! the view was magnificent and jasmine kept on thanking us. i unstood a bit of the lip-mouthing and she said she thank everyone who came down. so sweet of her ! jon and joakim were also facing us. JOAKIM ! he was suing his handphone trying to video the scene down i guess. i recognise his hp model ! it's Nokia7610 ! jon kept on waving to us. very nice !! heex.

and they left soon after. may and me are planning to go down to the next roadshow at tampines mall !! it's so thrilling having to scream for yr idol and everything ! i hope he can stay on longer !! i rly wish to see him perform more ! jiayous joakim ! and we are planning to bring our pe tshirt down and perhaps ask jasmine to sign on may's. cuz i don't have any available ones while may has some which she doesn't wear anymore. can't wait for the next roadshow to arrive ! (:
