This Saturday is a night which I would most probably think back years later and wonder "How could this happen?" Lol. This Saturday is the my hall's Dinner and Dance night and I am one of the contestant in the pageant contest.(which I am still figuring how I got in at the first place)
Every block in my hall sent their representatives and I am representing my block which is F block. F block rocks man!!! Since the past few months we have been practising our dance every week. I am so not good in dancing, I just don't have the moves. I am hoping at least I don't trip and forget my moves, then mission accomplish.
Honestly, being the contestant for pageant is totally unexpected. First of all, I don't have the height and the body. Besides, there are other much good looking guys in my block. Anyways, I am in. Haiz... I am guessing the guy "T" who commented in my chatbox saying that I think as if I am so zai (geng) besides starting his comment with vulgarity, would probably read this and criticize again. However, I just want to share that I lead my life with a principle, which is to be thankful for every single small things in my life, including friends. Instead of focusing on the failures in my life, I prefer to focus on the good things that happen which I believe will encourage me to excel in my life as well as using my experience to encourage friends who needs encouragement.
Coming here to Singapore is already a miracle. My father who strongly wanted me to continue my education in Malaysia has finally agreed to support me to study here in NUS. Thus, it is my vow to strive and excel in various ways to make my dad's investment worthwhile. I was reluctant to leave my family because of our close bondage and I will miss them a lot. But I guess there are things in life which I want to pursue which led me being here in the end.
Back to DnD, I am thankful to those who supported me. Although I know there are only a few of you guys, but I am very thankful and I appreciate you guys. :-)
This is the link to the Q&A which I've gone through.

IMPORTANT: all the investment sharing is on my own trades, they were never meant as financial decision making calls. Don't follow blindly and do your due diligence all the time.

A TURNOVER
Remember last week I was very down because of not being recognized by the hall. I was sad but I definitely did not expect what actually happened next.
I was so down that I turned to a senior in my hall whom I trust a lot. First of all, it was him who accompanied me to church during my early days in Singapore. He was in choir, a capella and also part of the hallplay committee together with me. So we know each other quite well. I was just hoping for some advice to get over this situation but instead out of my expectations, he actually helped to put my name in the Outstanding Freshman Award nominees. I was shocked and happy as well. I felt really greatful, not so much because of finally being the nominee for the award but much more than that, which is the feeling of being helped by a friend does feel great. I realized I wasn't alone after all.
Special note : "Thank you, Louis" (if you are reading this)
So just being a nominee is enough for me, because at least now I know the hall recognizes my effort and also getting to know a friend who cares.
I was feeling very contented but I found out today that I was one of the finalist for the award.
I was so excited. An email was sent to me to attend the Dinner and Dance event which the prize giving will be held. By the way, I was not the only finalist but together with my other great friends, Ken Juin, Jun Keat and Nicholas. All 3 of them worked with me before. Nicholas, Ken Juin and I worked together to make Malaysian Night a success. Nicholas and I were the Assisstant Manager for Hallplay, Jun Keat was the Marketing Head for Hallplay as well. Ken Juin and I were in choir and a capella together. Jun Keat and I are also the Male Pageant finalist, with Nicholas as our dance choreographer and the Vice-president of Dinner and Dance.For further info, the pageant contest will commence on the same day as the award giving event. Jun Keat, Ken Juin and I are also in the programme department for next year's Hall Orientation committee.
I was so excited to learn that the 3 of them are together with me in the finalist for the Male Outstanding Freshman Award. It was so fun working together with them. And now, we are in this award together. I don't care who wins the award but I feel that this experience is so unpredictable and too coincidental. 3 of them were the ones working along with me most of the time in hall. I really felt happy for them.
Looks like good things had happened more than what I can imagine. I really thank my Father in Heaven for the things he has done in my life.

Hey,
I checked my previous videos on my com. And I realized this song which I randomly sung one year ago while working for Maxis (a telecommunications company in Malaysia) as the promoter. It was after work that time. Song Huan, my best friend was shooting me in this video.
An interesting fact is that afternoon I participated in an eating competition. It was held by Nando's. The winner is the one who finished the Super Spicy half of a chicken fastest. I ate very fast, without chewing at all, just swallow and I got SECOND PLACE! So happy, but guess what prize I got? 2 bottles of extra spicy peri peri sauce, which is more pungent than chilli sauce or chilli padi. Haiz...
I hope you all enjoy this randomly sung chinese song called 背叛.
