A Jay Chou’s day – 22 December 2009

It’s been two years.. The last time Jay came to Singapore was on his birthday for his world tour concert. A few years back when Jay came to Singapore for the movie – Initial D, I “stalked” for him from Changi Airport. Picnic-ED outside the gates to wait for him, lined in a queue under the rain for hours. *SCREAM* As I need to work, I didnt meet the rest at the arrival hall. Jay took the morning flight from msia to Singapore. Liwei and Jordan were there to welcome Jay.

In the afternoon, Jay had press conference, then interview with 933fm radio, then to Plaza Singapura. Knowing that there will be a lot of people at PS, I went straight to GV Vivocity. I was at home after my work, wishing to complete my assignment first . But I just couldn’t sit still to complete my assignment. Too excited already. So in the end, I got dressed up and headed to GV Vivo.

When I reached, joined Esther and her sis, and Eileen. Wendy,Liwei and Jordan were at other side. There were a lot of people when I reached at 7pm. But more started to stream in after their work. I’m glad that I made the right decision to my high heels. I was taller than others and jad better view. Jay was supposed to reach PS at 7pm but he reached only at 730pm. Though I wasn’t there at PS, I was constantly being updated by jay’s whereabouts.

Then, around 8 plus, the 933 DJs,ZhiYong and JiaHui came and warmed us up. They were distributing the movie fan and we “fought” for it, snatched for it. Everyone was snatching like crazy. Around 845pm, Jay finally came, together with Lin Zhi Ling and the director. My view got blocked when everyone was pushing, squeezing, screaming, and taking photos. There were two stages- one at level two,at the ticketing counter, and the other one was at level three. After Jay and the crew finished their speech, they went up to level 3. It was then all of us started to run up the escalator. There were also people running up the escalator that’s going the opposite direction.. Ultimate OMG!

After the whole event, we took photos. Collin came and managed to find us in the midst of the chaotic situation. After that, all of us chilled out at Burger King and started to catch up. And not sure why Collin has super duper good memory to recall what we did many years ago (which I have no idea that it happened before).

After that, we left around 1030+ pm, super nice weather and there was a lot of stars there was belt of Orion too!!

22 December 2009 was fabulous cause of great event, fabulous gang and starry starry night.. I can’t wait for feb to come. Jay’s album gonna be out. And… June for his concert!! Should I start saving up and go Taiwan for his concert? :p

Monday (16 Nov) after my class, headed down to Cathay with Benson to buy 2012 movie tickets. Then we settled our lunch and went back to school to fetch my shepherd after her class. jy,ping,benson,bentay and I watched 2012 together. It’s really a nice (but long) movie. The film portrays cataclysmic events unfolding in the year 2012, as part of a possible prediction from the Mayan Calendar. Extreme solar flares heat up the Earth’s core, causing continents to suddenly shift.

It sets me thinking of certain issues in my life. Am I seizing every opportunity that is given to me? How much more can I do for the people around me? Do I cherish every moment I have with my friends and family? Am I ready for Jesus’ second coming?

One phrase to describe the whole movie – “Disaster after another“.

After movie, we went PS for dinner and walked around before heading back home.

Few weeks ago, I managed to sit in front of my computer screen and watched the movie Fireproof. A few months back, my brother was encouraging me to watch this movie after knowing that I’ve been watching taiwanese idol drama. He told me to invest my time in  more fruitful stuff.

This is an American Christian drama film which talks about building and strengthening of a marriage. In the 122 minutes show, Captain Caleb’s (a fire fighter) seven-year marriage to his wife Catherine is on the verge of implosion. There was lack of communication and understanding between the couple and Catherine wanted out of the marriage. When Caleb tells his father about the impending divorce, he challenges Caleb to commit to a 40-day test called, “The Love Dare“.

Caleb reluctantly agrees to do the test, but more for the sake of his father than his marriage. Caleb continues with The Love Dare, and eventually makes a life-changing commitment to God. Through the guidance of The Love Dare, and as a result of his new commitment to Christ, Caleb begins to understand what it means to truly love his wife.

So did Caleb manage to win back his wife’s heart? Go watch Fireproof!

I think it is amazing how God transformed Caleb from an insensitive husband, an internet pornography addict to someone who will take up the initiative to do the housework, taking care of his wife when she is sick. It was amazing how God made the impossible possible, and in this case, Caleb’s marriage. Faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see. Although things we are facing now are not in favor of us, do we still believe that God will work things out for us? Do you still believe?

I strongly encourage all of you to watch this. (Click here) Whether you are Christian or not, I believe that this movie will surely inspire you.

And there’s a song that touches me. It is called “While I’m waiting” by John Waller.

I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am hopeful
I’m waiting on You, Lord

Though it is painful
But patiently, I will wait
I will move ahead
bold and confident
Taking every step in obedience

While I’m waiting
I will serve You
While I’m waiting
I will worship
While I’m waiting
I will not faint
I’ll be running the race
Even while I wait

I’m waiting
I’m waiting on You, Lord
And I am peaceful
I’m waiting on You, Lord
Though it’s not easy
But faithfully, I will wait
Yes, I will wait
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve You while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting
I will serve you while I’m waiting
I will worship while I’m waiting on You, Lord

Yes, while we are waiting for God to do His work, while we are waiting for miracles to happen, we should not stop what we are doing. We should continue to serve God, worship God, and continue running in the race. Run the race while waiting on the Lord

Dear reporters and paparazzi (o.i forgot that paparazzi dont check their facts), please check on your facts before saying or publishing anything.. How can they anyhow curse people?

I was looking through Yahoo News and the word “JAY CHOU” flashed on my computer screen.

Jay Chou death hoax

TAIPEI : Indonesian media had falsely reported that Taiwanese star Jay Chou had died from a drug overdose, according to Taiwanese reports.

On Saturday, a reader alerted The Liberty Times of online discussions on social networking site, Facebook, about the singer’s death and requested that the paper verify the reports.

When contacted, Chou’s record label JVR quashed the rumours saying the star is fine and is currently in America filming “The Green Hornet”. It also warned the public not to believe the rumours.

This isn’t the first time the singer is reported to have died. In 2004, a Chinese website published a report saying Chou was killed in an accident after a collision with a truck.

-extracted from CNA

Oh ya, I heard from 933fm this morning that Jay is busying filming “The Green Hornet” in America and may not be able to come to Singapore on 20 Dec 2009 for his movie gala. God, this musnt be happening.. I’ve been waiting for this day..

Nice music on my blog??  Yeah man, you got a great taste!

It is Jay Chou’s latest song and dueting with Cindy Yuan. The song is called “画沙”. Jay duet with her in her new title track ‘Sand Painting’ which Cindy has composed and the lyrics are written by Vincent Fang. This is the first time that Jay Chou has ever sung a song that is not composed by himself!

作曲:袁咏琳
作词:方文山
主唱:袁咏琳, 周杰伦

午后的风摇晃枝桠 抖落了盛夏
我对着蝉认真说话 在对你牵挂
玩风琴就是爱瞎闹 堆积着无暇
我跟着站在碧沙岸 让你放不下

这风景如画 (让晚风恍惚幻化)
院子里画沙 (摇晃着画着情花)
等最美的晚霞 等故事长大

用手中的流沙画一个你呀
才说过的永远 我们一定不会擦
我的青春开始在喧哗
因为大声说爱你 而沙哑

用手中流沙轻描着你的脸颊
也答应说好的未来 全部(不?)会重画
许过的承诺我脚步会在期待
因为我爱你呀

挑上脸 挑上花 有你的记忆干燥成瓶中沙
傻傻的 还想着你滴滴答答
擦美丽的指甲 喝你泡的茶
原来幸福可以这么优雅

爱过你的风沙 你的风沙 我一样值得你爱
管他风怎么刮 管雨又怎么下
回头过去原来 (别说傻)
回头不说一次 (值得吧)
我爱上这泪光 问你会不会爱我

这种景如画 (让晚风恍惚幻化)
院子里画沙 (摇晃着画着情花)
等我们的童话 等誓言落下

用手中的流沙画一个你呀
才说过的永远 我们一定不会擦
我的青春开始在喧哗
因为大声说爱你 而沙哑

用手中流沙轻描着你的脸颊
也答应说好的未来 全部(不?)会重画
许过的承诺我脚步会在期待
因为我爱你呀

用手中的流沙画一个你呀
才说过的永远 我们一定不会擦
我的青春开始在喧哗
因为大声说爱你 而沙哑

用手中流沙轻描着你的脸颊
也答应说好的未来 全部(不?)会重画
许过的承诺我脚步会在期待
因为我爱你呀 (因为我爱你呀)

Wah.. Youtube is a super powerful tool. Not only for viewing dramas, music videos, I’m able to listen to people singing covers. Different renditions give me different feel of the song.

Tamia – Officially Missing You

[Verse One]

All I hear is raindrops

Falling on the rooftop

Oh baby tell me why’d you have to go

Cause this pain I feel

It wont go away

And today I’m officially missing you

I thought that from this heartache

I could escape

But I fronted long enough to know

There ain’t no way

And today

I’m officially missing you

[Chorus]

Oh can’t nobody do it like you

Said every little thing you do

Hey baby say it stays on my mind

And I, I’m officially

[Verse Two]

All I do is lay around

Two ears full of tears

From looking at your face on the wall

Just a week ago you were my baby

Now I don’t even know you at all

I don’t know you at all

Well I wish that you would call me right now

So that I could get through to you somehow

But I guess it’s safe to say baby safe to say

That I’m officially missing you

[Chorus]

[Bridge]

Well I thought I could just get over you baby

But I see that’s something I just can’t do

From the way you would hold me

To the sweet things you told me

I just can’t find a way

To let go of you

[Chorus]

It official

You know that I’m missing you

Yeah yes

All I hear is raindrops

And I’m officially missing you

Red Jumpsuit Apparatus – Your Guardian Angel

When I see your smile

Tears roll down my face I can’t replace

And now that I’m strong I have figured out

How this world turns cold and it breaks through my soul

And I know I’ll find deep inside me I can be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)

I’ll stand up with you forever

I’ll be there for you through it all (through it all)

Even if saving you sends me to heaven

It’s okay. It’s okay. It’s okay.

Seasons are changing

And waves are crashing

And stars are falling all for us

Days grow longer and nights grow shorter

I can show you I’ll be the one

I will never let you fall (let you fall)

I’ll stand up with you forever

I’ll be there for you through it all (through it all)

Even if saving you sends me to heaven

Cuz you’re my, you’re my, my, my true love, my whole heart

Please don’t throw that away

Cuz I’m here for you

Please don’t walk away and

Please tell me you’ll stay woah, stay woah

Use me as you will

Pull my strings just for a thrill

And I know I’ll be okay

Though my skies are turning gray

I will never let you fall

I’ll stand up with you forever

I’ll be there for you through it all

Even if saving you sends me to heaven
