Check out the big pearly white smile! (and the biceps too!) Poetry in motion! Hiakhiakhiakhiakhiakhiak!
Sub 5 Who says it is not achievable? Fitness and health is priceless I dont need a beach body Because I got a strong mind and never-say-die attitude :)
In this imperfect world You cant expect everyone to be perfect Because you yourself is not perfect either So maybe Just maybe We need to learn to better understand others Take the time to go and culture the relationship more Be it friends or partners At the end of the day You cant want someone to be the exact replica of yourself Because its a horror if that person isnt the one staring straight back at you in the mirror Therefore Accepting others flaws And knowing that ourselves also do contain certain ones And encouraging each other To change for the better Be it possible or not As long as you have tried You can lift up your chin Stomach in, chest out Look proud stand tall And say that you are not a failure Because you have tried As long as you have tried Then the outcome Its just a matter of how you view it

3. egotism;conceit;self-importance
Often People cant see the thin line between ego and confidence Being confidence is believing in yourself Rather than leaving your fate to God And pray that you might need a helping hand in some way or what
If you pray There is nothing wrong But dont you want to look back and see what you could have done better? Because as the saying goes " 平时不烧香, 零时抱佛脚 ” God cant save you Seriously
I think these are some of the most satisfying photos I have captured this time round Got the "feel good" factor after viewing them on my computer screen :)
Reflections oh reflections I think the borders looks great to me Poster stuff perhaps?
If I got wide angle lens Should have been able to get the whole of MBS in Without the Helix by the side But yup, still feels slanted angles gives the photo dynamism
Lotus! 莲花 is good-looking!
Wanted to capture the never-ending feeling of the trees running into the background Doesnt know if it works? Cuz I'm blurred by the result too Don't know should be happy or not
The Art Science Museum Joel got one from the top angle His is way better than mine
Joel the emo kid take home the "Picture Of The Day" Taught me how to get such good lighting Nice! :)
All the pictures had overlay and softlight focus Suddenly they looked so different ;)
Feeble attempts at cooking up excuses Is just intolerable Coming from a female friend You deserved to be hit With a barrage of uncalled for words that is But.....I stopped short of that I changed Because I grow stronger You don't Don't tell me sorry because you're not
As I sit at home Unemployed Bored And growing fatter and fatter by the day I realised no matter how bad my NS experience was I can still think of the positive part of it And know that I am actually being paid for doing things like running, keeping myself in shape, imparting knowledge, building friendships, increasing bonding between fellow soldiers and many etc etc And to top if off as of my current predicament I realised my allowance last time was quite high Compared to me going out to do a part-time job now
Ok actually It was HIGHER If you put into all the accounts of transport and meals Yup, this sucks Because I dont even have to worry about my meals last time in camp I dont have to think about what to wear I dont have to worry about overspending I dont have to see what is nice to eat and if it is tasty or not I dont even have to take time out to exercise And feel like it is a chore to go back home and shower after that Hell I even read books and magazines more when I'm in camp
One day after my ORD 7th May Best way to celebrate it?
Attend my virgin concert in Singapore And whose concert was it? Jolin 蔡依林 aka Agent J aka 舞娘 aka J奶's "Myself" concert (Ok too many aka there)
I'm surprised the Indoor Stadium is not full house May be due to the lack of publicity though The crowd was around 8000+ strong?
And now I know why Kobe say go local concert can take our time Because its like attending a wedding dinner "The wedding dinner never starts on time..."
So after dear concert goers take our own sweet time to settle down The concert started at around 820 Not bad, 20 mins late for the 亚洲舞娘 is acceptable for a diva I guess?
I TELL you When a digitally enhanced Jolin being projected on the globe screen And a butterfly come flying in and landed on her mouth area I'm like "ok whatup?" Still debating with Kobe whether the 1st song opening is 《美人计》 or not
It doesnt get any better than when Jolin walk out from the centre of the globe And sashay down the stairs
I thought it was like cool to the max already! And even though it started with 《花蝴蝶》 and not 《美人计》 It was an awesome beginning! Highly-charged!
Taking around 20sec to change into a new outfit Jolin began singing her new songs such as 《黑发尤物》
Damn this was sexy! Like freaking nose-bleed that type I mean not from a pervertic point of view Really nice! $171 worth it after 2-3 songs only LOL! ;)
There is also the 冷门 《玩美》 in between Ok its nice in its own way lah!
But seriously the costume changing speed is insane 20sec change to new outfit Where the dance beats never stop And up Jolin comes again from the rising platform And boom, there she goes again with another fast hit Applause for showmanship alone And the costume are very eye-catching too!
After a certain break later Jolin started singing a particular English song Named 《Vogue》 And after seeing like a gazillion times on Taiwan Channel I know whats next *rubs hands gleefully*
《美人计》 for the win! Woohoo~!
Seriously I never get sick of watching the MV on youtube And I also dont get sick of watching Jolin perform the dance move so many times Especially the vogue-ing moves The "hand-on-head plus hip-thrust" which 小猪 also talk about And my favourite “云手”! Sorry I'm a sucker for off-the-charts dance moves! :)
Go see the last video below Starting from 0.42 is sexciting stuff!
If I got any friends who can stretch their hands like that I will go and learn from you Just you only ;)
There was a break in between For fans interaction I think also for her to catch a breath ba
Oh well You don grumble when Jolin belt out 《天空》 after the break Swee!
Plus it was nice to hear her speak Especially with the famous Taiwan sainai / 撒娇 tone The OMG feeling You just dont get it in Singapore Only did you travel to Taiwan then when you enter the shop You will feel like spending money already Yup thats the feeling! ;)
And yes, Jolin do speak with that kind of voice too Especially when telling the crowd that if we dont get high soon And stay so orderly Then she will wave byebye and the concert will end before we know it
Lots of pyrotechnics Especially for 《特务J》
SWAT team running out with guns and lasers And of course Jolin coming out with huge-ass LED breast plates LOL! Bling bling max!
"Picture-Of-The-Day!"
The killer lipstick is OMFG bold And not many people can pull it off But Jolin did!
Plus if she wear the LED breast plates with the black Agent J leotard outfit AND then sing 《倒带》 That is feelingsofly already! Because 《倒带》 is like my kind of “指定疗伤歌曲”
If you dont know why 《倒带》 is such a great love song Hearing Jolin sing it live is like extra oomph! Still one of my favourite Chinese love songs
And there was 《小伤口》 too!
Followed by 《我知道你很难过》 and 《降落伞》 while descending from a high staircase Its like magical To put it in simple form
Throw in 《日不落》 , 《Mr Q》 , 《看我72变》 , 《睁 一只眼闭一只眼》 , 《无言以对》 , 《招牌动作》 , 《玩爱之徒》 , 《大丈夫》 and plenty of those big hits High 歌 all the very way!
I thought 《舞娘》 was like the climax after 《美人计》 It drew the loudest cheers when Jolin performed the much talked about ribbon dance The 彩带舞 is like what is being rumoured Excellent! But one reason why it is so mystifying is because Get this Jolin performed all the jumps, splits, spins, and whatever 180 or 360 turns
ON HER IVORY HIGH HEELS!
Now that is salute!
I always wonder how OL runs after buses in their business outfit and high heels And secretly cheered for them when they catch the bus Because I think running around in high heels is like crazy and insane Almost against the laws of Physics
And yet Jolin can do all her dance moves on the 2-storey high heel No joke The heels are like damn daunting!
The final song Yup she has a starfish on her head!
The finale as expected from her Taiwan performances Is the all bombastic 《爱无涩》 aka 《Bravo Lover》 The people beside us took out the iPhone and started using their touchlights Super enthu! I like!
《爱无涩》 is like G6! Engaging!
And she ends off by running into a fountain That is Bugis Junction with Jolin live! Now I will look at the fountain at Bugis with a different view =p
Did I mention Jolin was wearing a white top? ;)
$171 is worth it Glad I caught the concert commercial on TV During........duty in camp somemore!
HAHAHAHAHAH! I am winner seriously! LOL! WOOHOO!
Do go watch all the videos below Awesome close-up!
See the first video for the spectacular entrance And be aware of Jolin's arms Notice that there isnt like any ounce of fat Toned with the nice shape and cutting 女神!!!
I like the part 0.36-1.06 Especially when she reach the high key for the 2 words “可以” at 0.51 Electric!
And of course the last video for my favourite song of the night 《美人计》 Rocks!
Overall this concert Being my virgin one I would rate it as 5 stars! Especially for Jolin Could do more with some more emo songs though But the part which Jolin incorporate English songs Like Vogue And Madonna's Music Kylie Minogue's Cant Get You Out Of My Head And Lady Gaga's Just Dance Adds to the "HIGH" factor and dance routines And yes, Jolin is really the 亚洲舞后 The killer dance moves awe everyone And for someone standing at 158cm DAMN! She is literally transform how I view girls J-奶 FTW! *fist pump* :)
Chinese newspaper 新明日报 Never fails to impress me The pictures which Straits Times never publish You can always trust the Chinese side to do it ;)
2 days in a row I couldnt get The New Paper Had to read the Straits Time and 新明日报 instead
Yes 孙燕姿 is married to her triathlete boyfriend of 5 years! One day after Jolin's concert that is
Well the whole point of this entry is to lead to Jolin's concert which I attended the day before Steph Sun's wedding day Haha!
Seriously 新明日报 has like 4 or 5 photos while Straits Time only has.....one?
8.5m limousine License plate 1888 Now that is damn cool
Thought the media was quite restricted? How do they get the photos? I mean really
7万6000元台币 Hermes handbag Aka SGD$3.5k like that? Jolin's gift to good friend Steph Nice~
Imagine this "She wore a V-neck dress with a plunging neckline" Compare to “好友蔡依林穿低胸礼服秀乳沟观礼” The Chinese description just leaves more imagination to the mind Hum sup siol! LOL! =p
The Singapore boyfriend Super HUGE chest width Check it out! Thought the magazines or papers was only exaggerating But hey, this photo here shows that Jolin's bf 锦荣 is the real deal
Pretty! I thought the dress was really classy And the hair was very nicely done too The 事业线 is a hot topic too
Pretty x2! Simple and elegant
One of our most famous songbird finally got married And one of my favourite singer with the most of unique voices around Its a mystery why there isnt much coverage on her As she is like one of the biggest asset of our local music industry Oh well, hope she stays pretty and continue producing great songs after this happy marriage! :)
On this day I commemorate the day of being Operational Ready And I present Something that is dear to me throughout my 1 year 10 months of service
This is THE song of my National Service
Seconds.... Hours..... So many days.....
You know what you want but how long can you wait? Every moment lasts forever when you feel you’ve lost your way
And what if my chances are already gone? I started believing that I could be wrong But you gave me one good reason to fight and never walk away So here I am still holding on
With every step you climb another mountain Every breath is harder to believe You’ll make it through the pain Weather the hurricanes To get to that one thing
Just when you think the road is going nowhere Just when you’ve almost gave up on your dreams They take you by the hand and show you that you can There are no boundaries There are no boundaries
I fought till the limit to stand on the edge What if today is as good as it gets?
Don’t know where the future’s heading But nothing’s gonna bring me down
I’ve jumped every bridge and I’ve run every line I’ve risked being safe, I always knew why I always knew why So here I am still holding on
With very step you climb another mountain Every breath is harder to believe You’ll make it through the pain Weather the hurricanes To get to that one thing Just when you think the road is going nowhere Just when you’ve almost gave up on your dreams They take you by the hand and show you that you can
You CAN go higher You CAN go deeper There are no boundaries Above and beneath you Break every rule coz there’s nothing between you and your dreams
With every step you climb another mountain Every breath is harder to believe You’ll make it through the pain Weather the hurricanes To get to that one thing Just when you think the road is going nowhere Just when you’ve almost gave up everything They take you by the hand and show you that you can There are no boundaries There are no boundaries There are no boundaries There are no boundaries There are no boundaries.....
The lyrics of Adam Lambert's "No Boundaries" says it all
Every time before any major exercise Before we go chiong sua Before SOC Before field camps Before tekans Before any of the hardcore stuff that we went through And most importantly When I'm always feeling like I cant get out of this sinking black hole
I plug in my mp3 And always manually select this song and put it on repeat Be it lying down on the bed Or sitting down somewhere in camp during free time
With eyes closed but not asleep Every single inspiration line of this song Is being sucked into me This song gives me energy And seriously, it pushes me forward
This song to me Is like a float A shining beacon when the day was dark
And now, I finally gotten my hands on the pink IC Oh darling, I'm home I hate to say this But every damn nvchaokeng Singaporean son has the right to say this
