It's been a week since we visited Lee at her parent's home and also, saw her off at the airport (as she headed back to Muenster, Germany). It may happen in a blink of an eye, but it felt good seeing her and her family once more.
I'll definitely miss her. All I can hope is that I could see her again. Hopefully, in Germany next year.
And speaking of Germany, here's a list of my pitstops I've planned for next year (although nothing's been confirmed yet):
1) Manila, Philippines
2) Muenster/Berlin, Germany
3) Sydney, Australia
4) London, UK
5) Kansas City, Missouri (USA)
Should the plan materialise, I'll be poppin' over to one of these pitstops. And one thing's for sure, pitstops #2 and #3 are close to my heart, for a number of reasons. One's where my dear friend is and I hope to visit her again, and the other's where I hailed from in the first place. Should I ever go there, it will be a homecoming trip for me. Talk about no place like home. LOL. 
Lastly, I end this blog with a song that's dedicated to my friend who's now back in Germany, enjoying the autumn season. Definitely my most favourite David Cook song to date. And speaking of David ... I just can't wait for his new album to drop!!

3 more days to meeting Lee and her family - I can't wait!!
Come to think of it, it has been about one entire year since we last saw her in Singapore. And yayness - my day off for Sunday has been approved, hence I can meet up with her, alongside good ol' bros and sistas.
Right about now, I'm listening to an old song by Taiwanese boyband 5566, titled Long Time No See (好久不见). Kinda suit the occasion, since I haven't seen her in a long while.
好久不见 - 5566
呼呼 ~ 唉咿~ 唉咿~
你的样子越来越美越来越可爱
走到哪里都会有人偷偷望着你
你的歌声越唱越美越唱越动人
唱到哪里都会有人偷偷流着泪
好久不见 的你是否别来无恙
是否心里有时还在偷偷想着他
年复一年岁月无声改变了我们
得到什么失去什么又有谁知道
好久没到这个地方来唉咿~
这里的人每个每个变了样
是否记得当初我为你们唱的歌
是否记得一路花儿为我们盛开
是否记得当初我们讨论的女孩
是否她已越来越美越来越可爱
Okay, so my previous entry in this blog was out of sheer randomness on my part. LOL. Looks like my Chinese still ain't good enough. Can't be helped for someone who isn't born pure Chinese, and has never really gone to school - I was homeschooled, believe it or not.
Now to the main point for this entry dating the last day of September. These days, I will be blogging more in my new blog in David Cook's official website, at DavidCookOfficial.com , also known as DCO. Any entries there which I feel that's worth sharing with friends who have linked my blog with theirs, will be posted here. So yayy!! You will still have access into this private life and fantasies of mine.
Now for excerpts I would like to share from my new blog:
1) I swear I will kill anybody who ever dares to copy both my fave idols David Cook and Ryan Seacrest in saying, "Chicks, Man", especially those MediaCorpse artistes.
If there were to be a local version of "The Soup":
Kermit: Can I say "chicks man"?
Seth: I'm sorry, but no.
Kermit: Why can't I? It sounds cool.
Seth: Well, are you the host of American Idol?
Kermit: Errm ... no.
Seth: Then are you the winner of Season 7 of American Idol?
Kermit: Errrrrrmmmmmmmmmmm ... no.
Seth: There you go. You are not allowed to say "Chicks, man" because it has officially been Seacrestified and Cookified.
Kermit: F#$%*@ck you!!
Seth: Security!! Get that lunatic outta here! Well then, good riddance!!
嘿嘿!! 今天的部落格entry顯然很截然不同。 是的﹐這個entry我決定以中文寫出來。
為何這樣? 其實﹐ 我也不知道。 我只想試試不同的方式來寫我的私密日記。Something different for a change. 哈哈哈!!
唉﹐ 已經是九月了。新的一月﹐ 新的工作。雖然 這代表我再也無法像以前的享受美好的週末﹐至少我有錢得賺。每月一千塊 - 這可是天文數字耶! 哈哈哈!!
今天的日記只能寫到這裡 - 明天又得打工! 祝大家晚安。 同時﹐ 祝大家中秋節快樂。 我好思念我的女朋友嫦娥- 但願她在月亮上過得好好的。

Countdown to my birthday: 4 months 4 days
Newly-updated birthday wishlist:
1) A pair of shoes, ordered from Sketchers. No other brand will be accepted.
2) Return tickets to Manila (22 Jan 2009 - 28 Jan 2009)
3) No normal happy birthday songs to be sung to me - I would appreciate it most if I could be serenaded with The Click Five's version of Happy Birthday.
4)A new tattoo. Back then, I wasn't into that idea as I had yet to make up my mind on a design which will be inked on my skin for eternity. But now, I think I found it. Now another problem: Do tattooists in Singapore know how to ink that design I want? LOL.
5) No birthday parties for me, thanks in advance. You will need to be a BFF (best friend forever) to qualify organising one for me.
**************************************************************
Hmm. Should I scrap off this year's birthday wishlist? Should I not? I think I'm gonna have to KIV for a while.
Since I figured that this is a public blog which basically everyone can read, I'm gonna delete the parts that's verging on ruffling some feathers, like it did the last time round. There! A G-rated blog entry, can?
Sorry to all best friends out there, but you won't be seeing me anytime soon as I won't be meeting up or attending any events, that is, till October, after which we won't meet ever again. Exceptions apply to events related to David Cook. Time for me to move on - D-C.org is now my present and future. Time to leave the past behind. I'll cherish the good memories, while I erase away the bad ones.
Counting down to my birthday: 4 months 8 days
Newly-updated birthday wishlist:
1) A pair of shoes, ordered from Sketchers. No other brand will be accepted.
2) Return tickets to Manila (24 Jan 2009 - 28 Jan 2009)
3) No normal happy birthday songs to be sung to me - I would appreciate it most if I could be serenaded with The Click Five's version of Happy Birthday.
4) If there ever were to be a birthday party held for me, it would be most appreciated if you could turn up with no other committments. If you do, kindly don't come for this one. I don't like holding up those who are super-busy. If you turn up, please stay till the end of the party, rather than poop it by rushing off elsewhere. Not that I wanna put it down as my wishlist, but too bad since it's a case of Once Bitten, Twice Shy. It's a wishlist after all, hence my right to wish for something that should be made possible, right?
5) ...
Once again, whoever reading this blog, if you can get these for me, feel free to do so. Otherwise, take it like you would, a pinch of salt.
**************************************************************************
Let me see what happened these past few weeks, other than the Olympics:
1) I had a ball of a time at the recent MTV Asia Awards. In fact, the feeling was more euphoric compared to the last one I attended, in 2004, when it was held in Singapore Indoor Stadium. In fact, I enjoyed myself even more, compared to the Anugerah Planet Muzik 2008, which I attended earlier this year. Yup, that makes it 2 trips to KL this year. Also, no ankles were sprained during the course of the second trip. At most, only sore feet (I was standing throughout the whole show - yeah yeah, I never learn. Tsk~)
About 5 months to my birthday, hence my wishlist will start from here. These are the first few I wish to have for my birthday:
1) A pair of Sketchers sneakers
2) Return tickets to Manila (27 Jan 2009 - 30 Jan 2009)
3) ...
Well, that's all I can think of, for now. I'll update it as time goes by.
To those reading my blog, if you can afford to get me these, feel free to get 'em for me. Otherwise, just take 'em like you would, a pinch of salt.

I'm currently coordinating an event called Sport Your Support for David Cook. No date has been confirmed at the moment. But if you're a huge fan of David Cook and you want to show support (and in the hope that he will come to Singapore to perform one day), please feel free to drop a comment right here. I'll then try to get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!! 
These past few weeks, I've been catching up on the American Idol summer concert tour (thanks to YouTube and modern technology!!). I ain't too sure if I had said it before, but I'll say it anyway: I wish I could be there!!
Of the 10 Idols finalists who performed, the one performance I always look forward to, is David Cook's. He is someone who goes side-by-side with the phrase "Save the best for last". For each and every stop in every state, he seems to have something new to offer, one of which was something I've not seen for a very very long time. If you're wondering what that is, it's the backbend move which he did some time back, in which he kneeled down, bent on his back and played his electric guitar. Woosh~!! No words can describe the euphoria he was emitting. He certainly rocked it like a rockstar!!
However, that move had its repercussion. While doing that same move in Salt Lake City, Utah, he sprained his knee. Apparently, it was an old wound which was inflicted on him a long long time ago, and it got kinda ruptured. Although he has fully recovered from that sprain, we won't be seeing him do that again. At least, not for a while. But fret not, there will be more surprises awaiting his fans, and that includes me. We will just have to wait and see. If you wanna find out more for yourself, the videos taken by fans are available in YouTube. 
On the other hand, right here, I'm currently coordinating an event called Sport Your Support for David Cook. No date has been confirmed at the moment. But if you're a huge fan of David Cook and you want to show support (and in the hope that he will come to Singapore to perform one day), please feel free to drop a comment right here. I'll then try to get back to you as soon as possible. Thanks in advance!!
First up, a change of wallpaper. Credits goes to those creative Word Nerds who designed wallpapers of David Cook. I managed to figure out how to work those complicated HTML codes before finally able to customize my online site to its desired effect.
Secondly, at the site's Inbox. I've filtered updates from my contacts, so as to keep my jealousy in check. It's just not nice to feel so left out, so I'm not even going to look at those pics taken by those contacts of mine. Ignorance is bliss. And the best thing? No one gets removed from my contacts list. Ipso facto, it's now all about me, rather than the others.
Lastly, the URLs. I've deleted those that I don't visit anymore, and those that I wish to have little to do with. I only keep those that I still do patronize. Same goes to the groups I've joined. I've quit two of them, leaving only one. Can't blame me for my heart gone adrift, can you?
On a different note, the CD I've been waiting for has finally arrived in the mail. It's the To Have Heroes CD. For now, it's only available at CDBaby.com - you won't be able to find it at your nearest record store. Yet.
Finally, I have Andy's CD to keep me company, as I linger at the fact that I won't be able to be there at Andy's gig at Plan B, Tulsa, Oklahoma. Duh~ I am living at the other side of the world. If I have tons of money, I will spend 'em on a air-ticket right away! Lol.
Anyway, those who will be watching Andy's gig ... have fun! I can't wait to hear reviews from the Word Heroes over there!!
