its been ages since i open my golden mouth to vary the tone and pitches in my voice and 'talk' to the mike.. must be at least 6 mths or so.. i rem the last time i sang in either kbox or party world is with my jc frens, they booked a big room where we played inside.. but tt is also because we haf about 13 to 14 pple tt day.. din sing much..
this time round, i had more air time.. im more of a bathroom singer den anything else.. haf not gone thru any profressional coaching and know nuts about those 'do-re-mi' notes.. yeah, i suck at music.. but look who's enjoying singing? sang together wif some frens whom i happened to know outside my ns life.. really enjoyed as i get to sing new songs, watch mtv and still able to reach the high notes smoothly..
that is until i sang one crazy song by this powerful malaysian singer, gary cao.. i was made to screech at certain points of the song cuz the notes were really too high to reach and the gals in our group could only reach it.. yeah, its 'gua mu xiang kan', where pple will recognise it as the song used for one of the popular chinese drama serial about cops, where tay ping hui and qi yu wu were the lead actors.. the song will end off as 'i believe i can fly', and i believe that is the climax of the whole song.. one of my all time fav..
from then on, i tried singing david tao songs, JJ lin songs, even wilber songs, but all almost cannot make it cuz i used my throat too much for that song.. when i sing, my voice tends to go for higher notes, so i can go for JJ lin songs and david tao and even lin zi xuan, that is if u haf heard him.. im really impressed by lin zi xuan's vocals.. he is like the modern day fei yu ching or even fei xiang, but less publicity and less suave.. i rem he sang at one of the charity shows where he basically owned those dunno superstar singers or singapore idol finalists.. he came out and made pple cry after he finish singing.. enough said.. his only song that i like to sing is 'li ren' or departed..
yesterday was the birthday of one of my friends.. know him during ocs times and outside ns life.. really appreciated how he guide me as a person.. really appreciated how he still have faith in me after all these times.. both of us are busy people.. and we really hardly talked sit down and talked about our life and know each other enough as normal friends, but i dare say he earned more than me.. haha.. when i was feeling down and all the workload coming in at work, he juz gave me a call and asked me out for a sip of coffee, a much needed break.. the joke is he never told me when his birthday was until sun where i saw pple wishing him happy birthday den i realised his big day was nearby.. as a typical conservative chinese, i would never go out and give him a hug or or give him a big party or sth.. i prob will thank him thru other forms and other subtle ways..
talking about birthday, dun ask me wat i want for my 21st birthday.. i dun even noe wat will happen next year to my studies or where i would land up.. chalet seems to be the best option, but i rather spend my money on some other things.. yeah, i seemed to be losing grip of my expenses already.. post about it some other time..
