Project SuperStar 2014
- 7th June -
Ever since I heard about uPSS 2014,
I told myself, "It's now or never!!"
btw, registration strictly require recent 3R photos of 1 Close-up + 1 Full-body;
the TV crew said they won't accept if the shoe is cropped out.
After much digging, set my mind & went with these 2 photos.
these barely pass the mark as it's not really "recent" per se hahah~~
Taiwan was 1 year back if you were able to spot..

Anyway, I along with Pei Boon & Zhi Hao climbed the hills of Caldecott to Mediacorp,
but registration was closed for the day due to overwhelming response;
by 2pm, filming had been fully scheduled all the way to 9pm
& would require new applicants to come back the next day at 10am - 12pm.
However, Pei Boon & me were needed at work from 1030-230pm at Kallang Theatre!!
At first, the TV crew said that if we couldn't make it then that's that.
We find that it was unreasonable & decided to have a chat with the TV crew.
The conclusion was that we were able to come after work, but latest by 3.30pm.
Phew~ If not, the dream of becoming a star will end just like that hahah.
Since we didnt get to audition,
here's a subtle Mediacorp shot before we leave~~
To be honest, I didn't prepare anything right till the last few days
& I was so nervous that I couldn't sleep or eat properly.
So I was really kinda relieved to hear that I have 1 more day to prepare
& straight away I felt my hunger for some Japanese cuisine, Sushi~~
~ Headed down to AMK Hub ~
Heavy lunch @ Ichiban Sushi, but no photos coz I was too hungry.
Afterwards, we watched X-Men: Days of Future Past
& I was thinking what happens if can all change our own fate.
Ended the night with a little supper + chitchat at some Indian Prata place!

Cabbed down just in time for audition
& found out they actually waited for us since 12pm to let us audition.
Unfortunately, this news came as a shock with no preparation time for us
& I was the first up to face the judges + camera + close to 10 TV crews in the room.
No choice, gotta brave up & rock on!!
Anyway, my audition song is 'Evan Yo - 我用一首Demo
which I heard this catchy song over the radio a few days back
& I hope to win the judges vote with my confession XD
on Friday night, I was practically so nervous....
that I was looping the verse & chorus for practice...
pacing around my room trying to rehearse my speech & stuff...
Unfortunately, my preparation wasn't enough & I forgot a little tiny bit of the chorus.
I wasn't holding any high hopes, but everybody didn't get to know the results
as Mediacorp will only notify qualifiers by phone / email within 1 week.
I was having mixed feelings for that 1 week,
*A Glimpse of Hope* or *Can't be Bothered*
Even when I knew some people had been notified...
I was still holding onto the *never give up* attitude
*There's still time! They will inform me tml~*
In any case, I didn't get in to the next round, but I learnt the true meaning of,
"台上一分鈡，台下十年功";
a Chinese saying, 1 minute of performance on stage requires 10 years of hard work off stage!
Guess I shall just enjoy the show
& pick up some new songs along the way =D
