If you have been supportively tuning in to this blog for updates on me, sorry for letting you down each time when you have failed to stalk me on my latest happening.
So the last time I updated was when I went to Bugis with my groupmates to do project.
And we saw the rainbow.
And I made a wish (2 wishes actually).
I forgot if the two wishes were the same.
Or different.
But anyway :) .
CONGRATULATIONS TO MYSELF!
For making it to the top 16 finalists of Y.E.S. 93.3FM DJ Hunt!
:D <3 !
The results were released on 3 June 2013, Monday.
:) I remembered Big Shot 52 said the results will be announced on air at around 5pm plus, in one of the programs.
But I waited for like 1 hour plus and it didn't.
Until a little bit plus 6pm when this SMS came!
I screamed and shouted and cried and burst into Gin's room.
(I was in the living room oovoo-iing with my classmates, and just doing my stuff.)
But the worrisome thing was.
I checked my email and it didn't came.
Gin asked me if I remembered the wrong email but I was sure I didn't.
I mean, this is my dream you're talking about.
How can I afford to make mistake like this?
It sank in a little while, before I started thinking, it might be a prank from someone who knows I have this dream...
But as a I kept refreshing my email...
YES, THE EMAIL CAME.
And for the second time, I jump in tears of joy.
Nothing at that moment, can describe how awesome it felt.
To be so so so close to my dream.
I was so proud of myself for making that first step out.
I should have did this long ago.
I should have!!!
But it's ok BECAUSE I FINALLY DID AND I MADE AN AWESOME CHOICE.
Alicia from my class made it too :) !
So did Dominic, my junior from Year 2.
So there're like 3 students from Ngee Ann Polytechnic, Chinese Media and Communication.
^^.
I am so proud of us!
I sent in my publicity photo the next day at 4pm plus.
Credits to Jasmine Unnie and Queenie for the make up.
And of course, YuShi for the photography :) .
I am glad to have such fantastic classmates ^^ ~~
YuShi helped Alicia to take picture too :D .
So the both of us managed to hand in our picture on time, acknowledging our participation in the competition ^^ .
But some terrifying thing came.
The first training was 12 June.
But even until 10 June, I still have yet to get the details about where the training was, etc.
I WhatsApp-ed Alicia to check if she got the details and she said she did.
She sent me the screenshot of the details.
): I was sad.
They replied her that night after she sent in her photo.
Did I got eliminated for something I didn't know?
Did they find me too ugly or something, so they chose someone else?
Alot of demoralizing thoughts clouded my head and I felt so horrible.
To the extent whereby I feel like crying and I seriously almost did.
I wanted to fight for this dream not for myself but YiZhen too.
The way she congratulated me, and how she told me about 93.3 and DJ Ivy...
): I wished she got in too.
T___T a confirmation of her passion, an assurance to her dream.
I was effing sad.
But I got an email reply from Ms Imelda Koh (I email-ed her and 93.3 earlier on).
And she said she did sent out the email with details but!
There was probably a sending error.
Seriously...
I think the higher beings are testing me on my determination.
Maybe they wanna see how much I really want this dream...
Because yesterday!
Which was the day of the competition, I got my period.
And had super heavy cramps, which almost killed me.
I woke up earlier than 12pm, ate, and slept back at 2pm.
I woke up at 4pm plus, to a headache, worse tummy cramp.
And even when I try to get up to bathe, my vision kept turning black and blurry.
Not to mention, I kept feeling cold and super tired.
Gin was so worried he kept asking me to stay and not go.
But I had to ): .
Because being absent from the training may cause me to be eliminated >< .
And it was the first training, I didn't wanna be absent...
I went down (and had blurry and blacking out vision for the second time).
And I had actually wanted to take LRT.
Before that though, I went to buy pink panadol and took one.
Before I decided to take a cab instead because I felt like throwing up and I was about to be late.
>< .
So I took cab instead!
And reached there early by an hour...
So wait wait wait, saw the other contestants gathering.
And while waiting I looked through Twitter.
I saw that 93.3 actually released who are the 16 finalists !

I think I kind of like my picture LOLZ :D .
>< .
Alicia is two pictures away from me.
The first one on the second row.
And Dominic is the guy to the right of my picture.
So...
Yesterday, was the first training!
We gathered and went in all at once.
After exchanging our identification cards for the pass.
And went to a meeting room!
I got myself into the same group as Alicia..
Actually I think she is about the same as me bahz..
Like, somehow wanna make friends but not the type to very fast open up to new people.
I am gonna try next week I guess!
After all I wanna make friends.
The first we were bombarded with was to record a self intro.
VIDEO A SELF INTRO OMG.
Telling to the cam, how who we are and how we feel about making it to the top 16.
:x I think I was pretty unnatural on the video ): .
I think they mention that it's gonna be posted up.
Ohgawd.
D: .
Anyway, after a little session of chitchatting with 'Mr Bao', DJ PEIFEN AND DJ KUNHUA came in :D !
They made us write three points about ourselves which we were supposed to have one fake one. amongst the three points while the others are supposed to guess which is the fake one.
Obviously, I am a bad liar.
D: .
They found out quickly that my love for Milo is fake.
T_T .
So after this whole self-intro and understanding each other more...
The first group went with KH to do recording while the second group (ME ME ME, Alicia and the other 6 -- 2 girls, 4 guys) stayed behind with OMG PEIFEN <3 !
LOLZ we had some activities, like she was trying to understand us.
She made us read the sentence >< .
Where she demo so imba-ly.
D: .
And she concluded that my voice was weak.
Of course T_T I had a throat that hurts and a head that was throbbing.
She also told us details about the upcoming activities.
We were gonna have tests and many more tests.
>< the first group returned soon and we had to go for recording.
It was a recording to promote this environmental event thing.
>< I cannot seem to find the exact event name D: .
Ohgod shit, I am gonna fail the test.
So since each team has 4 girls 4 guys, and we had to do a conversation recording thing.
I was paired up with this guy...
Hmmz, the one who you see at the top in the 'poster', with a greeny leaves-like background.
Yuppz.
LOLZ I was like asking him which role he wanna take and he lemme choose.
So since I had throat pain and throbbing head, I said I'd take the shorter one >< .
>< he should have been Alicia's partner but Alicia was writing her self-intro.
So after being done with that, I continued working on my self-intro.
Yes, we had to prepare to record a 20-30 seconds self intro.
LOLZ OMGGG.
Totally kena bombarded >< .
Thank god somehow I was feeling not as bad as in the afternoon and had the strength.
To hyped up abit.
My recording was ok at first try.
But it was a mere 13 or 15 seconds.
So DJ Peifen said I can try again if I wanted.
>< everyone went and done theirs, I was the last.
LOLZ, since it was re-recording and the priority was to get everyone's done first.
HAHAHAZ.
Cuz of that, I got around 1 minute solo time with Peifen <3 !
Ok sheesh, I sound like some stalker here but!!!
I just admire her alot >< .
HEHEHE.
Gin came to fetch me that night.
>< .
It was super late and omg I am just so glad he came and fetch me cuz.
I didn't had the strength to actually find people who wanna share cab and stuff.
But now I am worried for next week >< .
LOLZ guess I'mma walk out myself to take bus cuz cab is really too ex >< .
But anyway.
What I learnt from yesterday was that...
We were gonna have a test on 19 June, for training 2.
Basic knowledge of 93.3, entertainment news, foreign affairs, local affairs, correction of wrong sentence structure, translation from English to Chinese and HanYuPinYin where they're gonna come out with alot of tricky tricky stuff.
D: It was been a long time since I deal with HYPY ):< this is gonna test me alot alot.
I used to be confident in it but now uhzzz.
Not only that, we had different segments to prepare for.
- 60 seconds free talk on a topic given.
- Fake interview with a celebrity (gonna be acted by a DJ).
- Host a program of our own.
- Host the song ranking program.
- Broadcast drama.
D: not everything will be tested...
But we are supposed to prepare for everything.
>< Ohgod, yes, this is hard on me.
): and I am really upset because.
I really wanna prepare for the test but...
Lemme show you what I post on Facebook and you'd understand.
Haiz.
So I am just sad now.
:\ .
After the training, for On Air Qualifying Rounds.
There're gonna be 2 contestants being eliminated each round.
Only 8 will stand at the semi finals.
Once again...
It's not for fame.
It's not for money.
It's all about passion.
All about dreams.
