for those who say that Guo Hao from Campus Superstar can sing please give your eyes a good tight slap cos obviously they aren’t functioning well.
to me he kinda insulted Wang Li Hong’s song by singing it so horribly I almost had the urge to switch off my TV there and then, but I didn’t cos I wanted to see how the judges would barrage him with criticism.
and much to everyone’s surprise (including his I suppose), he got in! Congratulations to all those people who actually blindly voted for him and wasted your money. I think it would have been more meaningful to donate it to charity instead.
but then again, Shawn was beaming although he was out, so I’m assuming that this is all just a gimmick by Mediacorp, and Shawn will be sailing through the revival round.

sad that Granado Espada will be going p2p soon, means I’ll have to look for new games to play again… anyone got good MMORPG games to intro?
Had a visitor from overseas so we went to Sentosa last weekend to visit dolphin lagoon and underwater world, nothing much changed though for these two attractions
I mean like, ya.. Underwater World is still underwater world, nothing new, nothing surprising. Dolphin lagoon is well, still showing Dolphins, but its going to be closed down coming end of the year and the dolphins will be moved to the underwater world. [they'll be constructing a lagoon for the dolphins there]
I never seemed to notice it the previous time, but the presenter for the Dolphin Lagoon show has quite terrible English, what I would like to call the “Cherine Tan” English for those people who know her… so it kind of spoiled the show for me..
my nephew working at Sentosa managed to get us free tickets for Songs of the Sea, been wanting to watch it for a long time cos heard from many people that it was good..
the show was supposed to start at 7.40pm but by 7pm there was already a VERY long queue which mostly consisted of Indian and China tourists. (Hey I thought we Singaporeans were kiasu) so we had no choice but to join the queue early if we were to get some decent seats
we got seated at around 7.25pm, listened to the irritating annoucements for a whole 15mins before the show finally started, was a good show overall, nice effects and stuff. so for your viewing pleasure..
First time I’m posting an entry as a response to someone else’s post… cos after reading Cam’s post I had several thoughts and I felt like writing some down…
I feel that parents will somehow never totally understand what their child is thinking, but for those who really have such understand parents, congrats to you. I can only say that I envy you.
Maybe some people are thinking now that when they grow up they will never treat their children the way they are being treated now. I also think that way sometimes, but seriously I am not confident of doing so twenty years down the road. Perhaps our parents thought that way too when they were our age, but that didn’t change the current situation.
As to why it is so difficult to forge unbreakable and trusting relationships, I can’t say for sure. Perhaps it is the environment that has driven us to be so distrusting towards other people. With office politics and all that, maybe some of that has been taken home unknowingly, and that eventually stresses the family relationship.
I am not saying that our parents distrust us because they dislike us. I believe that every parent truly cares about their children, according to the Chinese saying “虎毒不食子”. At the end of the day, what our parents do is eventually for us. We can’t possibly blame them for caring for us.
Hopefully there can be some courses on how to strengthen family relationships, I seriously don’t mind going for these courses if they can help bring the family closer. Cos I think that a family is God’s greatest gift to a person. Nothing on earth can replace your family members.
