OK. I admit that I'm in a cheery mood right now=)
Point is, today, I went for The One auditions, and as usual, it was organised by the maginificently well-structured 28th SC. How wondeful they make it sound that we have to be there by 5:30pm cuz the audition starts at 5:45pm. I mean, after some 吊嗓子 act with chee and hsiang, I managed to dash to LT1 on the dot, and to my astonishment, devastation and I must say, disgust, countless contestants jammed the sign-up bench at the doorway when it was only like 5:28pm. Fine, everyone's punctual, that's GREAT, but not when some J1s already queued there way before the commencing time. What's that called? Yep, Kiasu & Kiasi. Anyway, the auditions started at 6:00pm anyway=X Since teachers (they are the marvelous judges) didn't exactly check their watches that often and as I said, the 28th SC is so well-planned that they were unable to maintain the order of the audition and related stuff. Incompetent imbeciles. (ALLITERATION!!! =P)
I somehow landed with queue no. 15 (the heavens are cying), and I have to sit like 30 mins in the waiting room with strangers, maniacs, and some acquaintances that I struggle to recall their names, whom were all practising their singing at the eleventh hour. Wow. Imagine hearing guitars (MANY OF THEM), duets, solos and bands, all playing/singing their own songs with different tempos/rythms/beat/blah blah blah, and in numerous languages. I was so totally wallowing in anguish, terror and fear of beoming schizophrenic.
But my turn finally came...and went. OK, I mean, it was a mere 2mins, where I go in, take the mic, blabber some melodies blended with words in them, the toopid judges ring their bell signalling me to stop, and I'm out of it. Really nothing much, I'm serious. Since I only managed to sing half the verses and half the chorus. Is that much of an accomplishment?
Still, I was a lil' thrilled when chin SM msged me and told me I was shortlisted. Ha...FYI, I didn't make it through the last year when I sang 'Fly Away' by Fish Leong. I was slightly baffled then but when I heard Wong JS aka the universal asshole sing that song during LEP camp, I finally realised the taboo of my life. Trust me, that song is CURSED.
Most importantly, I want to thank all you guys alot! *muack* Especially chee, hsiang, miao, wen, soo, simin and Gay for encouraging me and giving your support. 爱你们哟~~~
