AMERICAN IDOL FINALE
being an american idol fan, how can i not watched the results show last night. AS EXPECTED by many, the
fantastic FANTASIA won the hearts of many and became the winner of
AMERICAN IDOL III.
well, what is so great about this show, besides providing a stage for good singers, its a celebration of music, friendship and the reality of the world. although i believe there are many unseen politics and scams beneath this beautiful blanket of performance, what touches me and i admire most is how to sing with such passion. yes! the word is passion. a good voice will bring you to the limelight, but passion and feelings will bring you to the crown.
american idol is a show with ups and downs, a show with pretty faces and of course some ugly, but all these are only false images. when one sings beautifully and amazingly, the beauty of the person will show.
great performance by
Ruben Studdard, Kelly Clarkson, Fantasia Barrino and Diana DeGarmo when they shared the same stage singing
The Impossible Dream, and loved it when Diana and Fantasia did a almost perfect rendition of
I Knew You Were Waiting (For Me), a duet previously sung by George Michael and Aretha Franklin.
the great event took place at the
Kodak Theatre at Hollywood, the home of the OSCARS and many great events, and this showed how grand and how significant the show is.
these 2 photos are taken from the performance when she sang
Summertime, in the finals and the grand final respectively. i have taken chosen these 2 pics because i loved fanatasia when she sang this song, and i think these 2 were her best performance. her rendition captured the hearts of many and made Simon Cowell almost wanting to shout
encore.
Once again congrats to FANTASIA!!
The Cool Morning
the sky dimmed. there is no presence of bright and strong sunlight. it was the cool morning, the morning that you would like to be in bed for a little longer...
i have totally no idea what had got into me? cool weather did not help me. the mood is somehow not as calm and cool.
something bothering me. that's for sure. but what exactly? can't really figure out.
or is it me that i did not want to face it directly?
may everything be well and good. that may be quite difficult...
bless me...
Sometimes things aren't so easy as they seem to be
hmmm... sounds like a great title for a song...
after working for these few days, i realise that sales-oriented jobs aren't that easy after all. besides having to face countless rejections, there are also
ZERO sales for the past two days. in addition, when there are no sales, the pay is rather low, without any commission at all. it can be quite depressing. thinking of job hopping but it's difficult to look for another job now.
haiz...
can't money just drop from the sky and in front of my doorsteps?
haha!!
another pretty face has left
AMERICAN IDOL. so it's farewell to
JASMINE TRIAS. will miss the flower gal and her sunshine smile.
BYE BYE JAS!!
had a crazy dream last night. dreamt of
JASMINE TRIAS singing with
CELEST CHONG at bedok interchange. although i admit that really look alike, but it seems that i can't bear to see
JASMINE leaving though she isn't that wonderful as a good singer...
wish me many many luck in getting more sales and appointment!!
Somewhere Out There...
it's definitely quite an experience, to see different people and now i have 1001 excuses for turning down people, because of the nature of the jobs i have, i am always being turned down.
it's like i lack of money or what, crazy... holding 2 jobs...
anyway and anyhow, i believe
somewhere out there, i still believe there's nice people, like the
auntie who felt sorry when she declined to sign up and yet she promised to recommend people to us, and also she gladly talked about her family problem with us...
and there's also this teacher.
(MISS TAN), who somehow seemed to agree with everything we have to offer...
felt evil sorta cheating her...
but i believe that's the nature of sales.
hope lady luck and fortune god will shine at us in the future...
missed all the camp people, hope they are still as close as ever and hope sometime in their busy schedule, one or two of them will think of me for a second, cos quite often now and them, i still miss them...
GOD BLESS ALL.. no matter what religion you are in
Pray...
Hope today everything will go well.
It's that simple.:)
I know I shouldn't complain but...
maybe i should look up the characteristics of an Aries. Do aries get depressed easily? or whether it's just me?
why the depression? due to failure of getting a job. felt useless and incapable. why people can get but can't i?
me too fussy n picky? maybe. but there are so many scams in the newspaper.
i can get greatly affected by the people around me. when i see people doing well but not me, i will be depressed. yup. you can say i am very competitive.
maybe in my life, i haven't really suffered any serious falls. and when i fail doing something, i wanted to give up and be depressed.
JEREMY!!! wake up!!! look forward to a new day tomorrow. not all hope is lost and don't be too affected by the people around you!!! yes!!! you are fat.
THEN DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT INSTEAD OF SITTING THERE AND POUT!!!
well, that's why i like to have a blog. it is a source i can pour out my sorrows, and it definitely felt a bit better.
i must have aims in life, if not it can be really depressing and real sad.
tomorrow will be fine!!!
Hope and think so!
Jobless
It isn't that easy looking for a job after all. afraid the job adverts might be scams, or no basic pay, then must look for those w/o any CPF cos You know Y!!!
Gary said I am too fussy and choosy.
Maybe?!
a sign i haven't blog for quite some time: didn't know this blog had a new look!! Nice!
Job hunting later.. wish me luck!!!
BAD MOOD!!
BAD MOOD!!!
Maybe you didn't hear that...
BAD MOOD!!!
BAD MOOD!!!
BAD MOOD!!!
Life as a...
ORD Personnel
great of course... finally sorta can breathe freedom...
ORD Personnel + Leave Taker
it can be very boring when life is without any aim, especially when you have one stretch of leaves and you have not any things planned. no trips, no work. i hope my life doesn't crash and shatter,
aka get a mental breakdown...
Over-Spend-er + No Job-er
what else can i say??
BROKE to the extreme. in order to not waste my life away and get a mental breakdown, i must find things to occupy by life, in which results in a fast cash depletion... here is it why...
Last sat: went down to chinatown to find out more about the overseas trips gary
VERY interested in. transport fee + meal fee.
Mon: went to the library in the noon to borrow some books and travel guides. then went down all the way to
Boon lay just to catch a movie with
camp mates. quite a letdown when discovered only a few were there. transport + meal + movie + disappointment fee.
Tues: driving in the morning. met up with
bmt mates in the evening for a game of pool and headed to
NYDC to eat. enjoy the chatting though but suffered the cost paid for the meals and pool game. and of course transport isn't free.
Wed: met up with
shan and
pris for late dinner. and it's NYDC again. food and public transport all do cost money.
Thurs: went to
NUS medical checkup in the morn with
renny. nice chatting and browsing and
IKEA. well, we have to eat because we are hungry, we have to travel in cab because it's hard to find bus...
Fri: Met up with
shan, pris, and sy at Orchard. ate at Mac and at Lips cafe... enjoyed all the laughter, bitching and gossping and bumping into friends (almost thought it's a cg gathering when bumped into
clemann and peikai just minutes apart, and of course saw
fei, and
yewei, whom i don't think he recognised me). laughter, bitching and gossping and bumping into friends are free. food and transport iaren't!!
Today: KTV, clubbing and eat all required money... Maybe some nice souls can sponsor... hee hee.
at first, sy recommended some job for promoting laptops which in turn became a job which only required only female promoters.
sad!
no tuition lobangs too!
ok ok, will force myself to scrimp and save as much as possible.
and getting fatter from all the eatting session!!!
VERY VERY VERY SAD!!!
wish me $$ luck! :p
