Super High
I did the craziest thing ever last Saturday and never even in my life have I start queuing up for an autograph session since the break of dawn. However I did it on Saturday!!! Hehe...
The night before I went to bed at 10pm and surprisingly I was able to fell asleep. Hehe... At 11 plus Lix sms us on the things to bring and after reading that message I zonked out again. =P Before I went to bed that night I sat up 3 alarms to wake me up from 3:40am onwards. Surprisingly I managed to wake up. Hehe... I am so proud of myself. Anyway, I still laze around in bed until Val gave me my morning call at 4am. Hehe...
After I woke up I called my mum up and had my shower to prepare myself for the long day ahead. After breakfast of 2 slices of bread my dad drove me to Bukit Batok to meet up with Annie whom I would be taking a cab with to EastPoint Mall at Simei.
At around 5:50am I guess we reached our destination. I walked with Annie to the place where her friends queued overnight and nearly got a shock. There was already a row of people queuing there. Since they could not queue overnight in the mall so the lot of people stayed out in the field behind the mall. I immediately joined the queue and notified the rest to come as soon as they can.
Dalphne called me at about 6am to ask where I was cause she had arrived too. She joined me in the queue since I was queuing in front. After that Ziee joined us followed by Nad and Jollin. Then Maria came along as well.
While Nad and Maria went to buy newspapers for us to sit on while waiting for the mall to open, Lix brought the rest of the gang to where we were. After the girls got back, we sat around in a circle and introduced ourselves since it's the first time we had such a big gathering.
Slightly after 7am the crew moved us nearer to the mall. Although we couldn't get into the barricades in the mall but we were at least closer. All of us waited again outside the mall as they made some more arrangements. By 8am, we were slowly guided into the mall area for us to sit and wait. It was worth while to be there early cause we managed to queue inside the mall and the view wasn't that bad as well.
After we all settled down, we immediately got the number card to go to the loo, buy batteries and of course food. Hehe... Our Nad mei was so lucky that she got card no. 186. Haha... then Maria, Jollin, Nad and I were like busy snapping pictures of that in the toilet.
After we got back with our food, we started eating and once we were done we started drafting our messages which we would be writing in the book Nad and Maria made for our dear Ella. It took all of us quite some time to complete it cause we were constantly being interrupted.
Since we were sitting in the last row, we were near the only exit where the rest could get out of the queue to get food and go to the toilet so we constantly had to make way for them to exit and enter. It started to get freakingly irritating because they keep kicking my knee and some idiots can't even walk. They almost stepped on my feet as well.
Seriously from after breakfast to the event starts I guessed we were just walking around. Taking number tag from the crew and visiting our 2nd batch of people who were being basked under the hot sun.
At around 1 plus we were all waiting anxiously for our idols to arrive. When everyone in front of us stood up, we followed suit and rushed forward. Since everyone was like cutting queue and all, we managed to squeeze to like the third row or something but we were being surrounded by tall guys. Anyway we totally disregard those guys when the show begins. Hehe...
Before we rushed forward, some of us were given our mascots to hold and I'm so glad that we did cause Ella and her laopos definitely saw us and even POINTED at it!!!! Shucks... Can it get better?
Man, the whole 'live' radio interview and autograph session totally like went by in a rush in my mind but I'm just so glad that she enjoyed her trip in Singapore.
When singing 'Miss Universe' Ella was so totally high that she just kept doing sexy dances on stage. Darn. Hebe forgot the lyrics while singing 'An Jing Le' and was teased by the lyricst Selina.
Just before we got on stage to get our lyrics book signed by the girls, Dinah and I were practicing what we were going to say when we get up. But when she got on stage Dinah totally blanked out =P
Hehe... Not like I was any better. When I stood in front of Ella my mind was kinda blank too, I blabbered out my 'speech' of asking her to look and read the gifts we had given her and told her to visit Philippines and Indonesia on behalf of my other friends who are far away in those countries. Since I was holding onto the Chun's mascot and it was kinda like at her eye level I saw her glancing at the mascot when listening to my hopefully clear talking. Hehe...
I was so high after that that I nearly missed shaking Hebe's hand but I guessed Hebe was kinda getting used to it since before that Maria, Nad and Jollin also forgot to shake her hand. Hehe...
After we got our autographs done, we all met at the taxi stand and we were screaming non-stop, telling each other of our encounters. I bet those people around us must have thought we were a bunch of crazy girls. Hehe... But who cares.
We had our group photo taken then we all parted our different ways. Some of us went home, some went back to continue taking pictures but most of us rushed down to Causeway Point where S.H.E was scheduled to have another event.
I shared a cab with Nad and Jollin while Lix, Dinah and Ziee took a ride with Su in her car. On the way to Causeway Point, we just can't stop talking about how Ella electrified us and all. Hehe...
Somewhere through the journey all of us got tired and fell asleep. Hehe... Seriously I didn't expect the cab fare from Simei to Woodlands to cost us S$21 but well, it's over.
We reached Causeway Point at around 4:50pm or so, then we immediately rushed to the stage area to look for a good spot to stand. However because there was still an event going on we could not really get good standing spots.
Jollin left for home shortly after then the rest of the girls joined us. Since we had more people then we tried to go search for different good spots to stand.
We found a rather good one on the left side of the stage but we weren't sure if Ella would be standing there or not. Anyway we were too lazy to move so we just stick to the spot. Nad and I went to get dinner after that because we wanted to finish our food before S.H.E appeared. Hehe....
The second group consisting of Felicia and gang joined us at around 6pm or so.
At 7 plus S.H.E finally appeared. But we were greatly disappointed. They didn't perform any songs besides chatting with the 100.3 DJs and asking everyone to vote on omy.sg. There was another matter pissing me off. It was the stupid 100.3 DJ Ah Ken. HE WAS FREAKING BLOCKING OUR VIEW OF ELLA ALL THROUGH THE SESSION AND WHEN WE SHOUTED AT HIM HE JUST TURNED AROUND LOOK AT US THEN CONTINUE TO STAND THERE! WTF WAS HIS PROBLEM?
Then whenever he moved away we would try to take pictures of Ella immediately BUT HE ALWAYS SWING BACK INTO VIEW WHEN WE SNAPPED THE SHUTTER!!! FREAKING IRRITATING!!!
Haiz... Throughout the whole event at Causeway Point no matter how we shouted Ella did not really look at us but at one point she stepped back from the group and looked at our area. Should I be happy about that? I guess I should. Hehe...
The whole event ended with everyone celebrating Hebe's birthday in advance. After that S.H.E left and the crowd dispersed. We hung around a while more and took group photos once again.
We got our fellow CE lovers from ce.cn to help us with the photo taking. Hehe... However something weird happened. Out of nowhere a kid held out a camera and took picture of us too. Were we being too rowdy or attention seeking?
Anyway, after that was done Dinah and I took a cab home since we live so close. My voice was totally gone. Hoarse from all the shouting I suppose. Anyway, it didn't really got better and I even have a cough now. Great.
That night after watching 'Together' the new drama by Jiro Wang and Rainie Yang and eating supper of instant noodles I fell asleep all through to Sunday. Hehe...
