Critics are just too critical...
I was surfing the iTunes music review for some artists... such as Ashley Tisdale and I found that in this world there are so many senseless critics giving useless reviews... I won't even call it a review... -.- They only know how to criticise people... blah blah blah... A good critic should view the album in different perspectives and see the advantage and disadvantage... the good and bad side... and give constructive comments or suggestions for improvements but those stupid critics just gave us a one-sided review or even just one word "Garbage"... "Bad"... -.- so lame... I just can't stand people like that... If they don't give any suggestions... how are they gonna improve???

And there are people who say that Ashley copied from Cobra Starship or whatever the band name was... the band's song "Guilty Pleasure" and their new album "Hot Mess"... Ashley have the song "Hot Mess" and her album is called "Guilty Pleasure"... PLEASE... why so sensitive... There are so many songs and albums in this world with the same name... they are so lame... complaining about these stuffs...

And and those people are criticising all the DISNEY STARS... WHAT IS THE PROBLEM WITH BEING ASSOCIATED WITH DISNEY??? Those people are saying how bad they sound even Demi Lovato was criticised but not as bad as Ashley :'( but Demi does sound better than other Disney artist but they are not bad either... she has a unique style of singing... These people should really GET A LIFE and don't even comment on these artists if they dont even like their singing... what's the use of commenting then... Let out your frustration/irritation??? What's the use of getting irritated... It's not even worth it... Those guys are weird...

Here's my review for Ashley Tisdale's "Guilty Pleasure":
The album depicts a different side of Ashley Tisdale... the wild girl... in a HOT MESS... However, I'd prefer her debut album "HEADSTRONG" as we get to hear songs that's not only just about love and breakups, such as "POSITIVITY" and "SUDDENLY". We get to taste a darker side from "HOW DO YOU LOVE SOMEONE", about a broken marriage of Daddy and Mommy and becoming a messed up child. This album presents a different style of music that Ashley presents to PEOPLE WHO LIKE HER SONGS and a different side of Ashley as can be heard from "ACTING OUT". "MASQUERADE" is another track that's a MUST LISTEN. The single "IT'S ALRIGHT IT'S OK" tells a break up tale. The ballad "WHAT IF" was good too. From "Aliens In The Attic" comes the track "SWITCH", an interesting mix of musical style. "CRANK IT UP" is a perfect dance music letting you rock out to it. "ERASE AND REWIND" was a recommended track too. With this change in singing style shows that Ashley's slowly leaving her Disney career and growing out of the innocent Maddie Fitzpatrick of "The Suite Life of Zack and Cody" and Sharpay Evans of the High School Musical franchise. I suggest Ashley to not write songs too grown up or too teenage for High School Musical lovers who are mostly kids would be hearing "not so innocent" songs and maybe stick to the style as shown in "HEADSTRONG" and "GUILTY PLEASURE" can be kept for the future. This album was really creative though and I'd rate it 4/5 :)

Really pop-py albums... and with the death of Michael Jackson (R.I.P.), who will claim the throne to be the next King of Pop? Adam Lambert? Maybe... He's got a unique range of pitch... and unique singing style... hahas...

we met at the cinemas that year... you and your mum and me and my mum and
we unexpectedly have the sits next to one another... you are my first
crush...

Another Earthquake...
12am+ A minor earthquake occured in Taiwan... or at least it was minor in Tai chung... About 1 or 2 on the Richter Scale. There has been reports of 34 earthquakes in 31 days already... it was said that there is a possibility of having another great earthquake like the one on 9/21 or what it was known as the Ji Ji Earthquake. Tsk Tsk... at least some pressure are released slowly with so many earthquakes...

FUTURE - COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY: Where should I go???

Back 2 SiNGAPORE ;]

Ok so the day before I left fo Singapore I finally realise what life and love is. Well, sort of. The purpose of living is to experience different things. Our life is full of experiences. We taste the different tastes in this world: Sweet, Spicy, Sour, Bitter, Salty... these are all experiences. We get to see different colours in this world, even when it's just black and white or even when you can't differentiate the colours, these are all experiences we go through. We laugh, we cry, we get shocked, we get frightened we experience the various emotions. We do projects, we go to school, we go have fun and hang out we experience various things. Eventually, we all experience one thing: death. So this is life: we go through various experiences from birth to death. These are all experiences. And we should really appreciate it we get to experience these things. In other worlds, we should be greatful we are alive and well on Earth. God made us all differently, even twins are different, we experience different things. With regards to LOVE, I would just see it as caring for someone because LOVE is really a big word but with one purpose. You love your family because you care for them. You love your friends because you care for them. You love your girlfriend/boyfriend because you care for them. You love your pet dog/cat/fish/turtle/bird/snake/guinea pig/rat/pig/snail because you care for it. You love your work because you care about working. You love to study because tyou care about your studies. Well that is with the exception of loving foods etc.

So anyways, I arrived in Singapore in the afternoon with my mum and we went to Lewin Education Center to thank my tutors for helping out in the "REVERIES". 5000 RMB = SGD$1000+ are already donated to AWWA School for the kids with special needs and also an additional 95+ books will be delivered to Shanghai! Wonderful! And we have a lot more money to donate to charities!

In case you do not know: YOUR PURCHASE OF "REVERIES" WILL BE HELPING OUT THE CHARITY ORGANIZATIONS AS ALL PROFITS WILL BE DONATED TO CHARITY. I REPEAT: ALL. EVEN THE MONEY WE RAISED FROM THE FUND RAISING WILL BE DONATED AND THE SALE OF THE BOOKS. GIFTING OF BOOKS WILL BE ALLOWED BUT THE RECIPIENT HAVE THE CHOICE TO DONATE 60 RMB OR AN EQUIVALENT SGD$12 TO ANY CHARITY ORGANISATION.

Okay so then we went to visit my Primary School Best Friend: DARREL :] we didn't talk much though, he grew so tall... gosh I am so jealous... haha! Btw, I passed HGPS and the new Indoor Sports Hall looks pretty awesome!!!

The following day I went back to VICTORIA SCHOOL! Everybody grew so tall... I'm so totally jealous... and meet up with lots of friends and teachers :] Had fun touring the school with JIA LOK and CHAN KAI. However many ppl fell ill. Saw the Red Cross peeps! Good memories~ And the juniors! Haha! I do know one Sec 1 who doesnt really enjoy Red Cross... then after that had dinner with Jia Lok. Did I mention the view from Swissotel The Stamford is so awesome? Can see the Marina Bay Sands under construction and The Esplanade and the CBD and the St Andrew Cathedral and Padang and the Government Place thingy and the Merlion and the Floating Platform. Oh btw, VS's new Indoor Sports Hall was built already as well! Looks awesome as well! Wow... both schools I went to have new sports hall!!! AWESOME!!!

The next day we went shopping and at night we saw the NDP Rehearsals!!! Awesome fireworks directly from our hotel room! Haha! And the following morning Jia Lok, Chan Kai and RONALD ONG came to send me off! Thanks guys! We chat a bit but that morning I was tired so didn't chat a lot...

Sigh... I had a choice then in August 2008: To stay in Singapore to continue studying in VS or move to Shanghai to study in SSIS. I chose to move to Shanghai. In VS, I could have had more achievments in many different ways with the so many opportunities they had... even in CCAs. And I could have stayed in Red Cross and then I'd grow taller with all the Physical Trainings in the bumblebee attire~... sigh... But moving to Shanghai I get to have a new experience and of course, learning many valuable lessons. These opportunities God gave me... I really appreciated it. Now I've learnt to let go but of course from time to time I'd still be clinging on to past memories. And of course, I've made new friends. There's an advantage and disadvantage having this great change.

And with opportunities we have to really make full use of the chance to make things right. In the movie "Evan Almighty" that I saw in the hotel, they say that when we pray for things, we don't get what we want directly. God only gives us the opportunity to get that thing we want. Really awesome. It's really up to us to make things right/successful when the opportunity is right in front of us. I also saw another movie "To Be Fat Like Me"... it's a cool movie as we learn to accept people for who they are... I saw "Mr Woodcock" too... lols... funny movie...

Ok so that's about all...

hola
i am back from Tai-An, staying over in a SPA Resort in the middle of mountains and the great Mother Nature. however it rained and the mosquitoes and the so-so hotel room make everything terrible... luckily it's only for one night... haha

oh and i saw a very interesting joke that i am very sure hilary will definitely enjoy and laugh at!
here it is:
There is a Vampire Bar in somewhere and then the first Vampire entered and said to the bartender, "I'd like to order a mug of Bloody Mary (a kind of drink)." Then after that a 2nd Vampire arrived and ordered an O-Typed Blood Drink thingy.... yum~ after that, came the 3rd Vampire. He said, "I'd like to have a cup of warm water please." The bartender replied, confused, "Why would you want a cup of warm water?" but gave him the cup of water nevertheless. The 3rd Vampire replied, "To drink tea" and took out something hilary likes and starts with the letter "P" :)

hahas....

and so today I watched "The Mummy" on AXN and "The Mummy Returns" and "The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor" on HBO. haha! Mummy Fiesta~

oh yes and for the last few days i just cant seem to fall asleep... i have been thinking too much again about the future... near future and the further future (?) lols... and I SOO MISS RED CROSS and VICTORIA SCHOOL and SINGAPORE and ALL MY FRIENDS/TEACHERS!!! and KAYA and HAINANESE CHICKEN RICE.... and FIRST AID.... such a headache...

so i was clearing my inbox today... all the 300+ emails i have to categorise and delete and blah blah...
good memories i viewed through... reveries... peacurkies... romeo and juliet.... sigh... and also this piece of news from min yen...:

22 July 2009 a tsunami is predicted and singapore, malaysia etc. are the targeted areas of being hit by the tsunami and the epicentre of teh earthquake is at either taiwan, japan or somewhere in the pacific and these days there's lots of quake occuring around taiwan... and it's already 17 July.... well, just wait for the day.... sigh...

here's an analysis from about.com:

UNLESS A TRULY extraordinary coincidence occurs on July 22, 2009, the only accurate statement in the preceding message is that a solar eclipse will be visible in some parts of the world on that day. Tsunamis are caused by earthquakes, not eclipses. Though astronomers have long been able to predict eclipses by tracking the orbits of the sun and the moon, no such capability exists for earthquakes, nor is there any known correlation between the two phenomena. "In the last 110 years or so, there have been about 85 really big earthquakes," Professor Kerry Sieh of Singapore's Earth Observatory explained in a statement to Channel News Asia in April 2009. "And only two of those occurred on the same day as an eclipse. And even those were a partial eclipse, not a total eclipse. They happened in a different place from where the eclipse happened."

NASA's Dr. James Foster concurs:
Earthquakes and volcanic eruptions do indeed occur at times of eclipses. But records show that they occur with no greater frequency or power than on days when full Moons or new Moons occur (without eclipses), when all the planets line up on the same side of the Sun or on days when the Moon is in a crescent or gibbous phase. As special as eclipses are, they simply don't have a known impact on any geophysical phenomena.

HOWEVER I think it may be possible still for the fact that there's a rise in the earthquake activities in Taiwan recently and also in New Zealand... well... whatever... and it's on the same day as the solar eclipse btw... haha :)

i'll end here.

A NEW CHANGE!!! For me. For my blog. For my LIFE :)

so... I have left the Red Dot and landed to a place so strange and unfamiliar to me - Shanghai. With this change, I've changed. Changed a lot. Good changes, bad changes... all of them come to me like a tidal wave, drowning me. But in the end I pull through the tough times and did OK for the EOY Exams. Thanks to Lady Luck ;) With the so-called "success" of the Final Year Exams even though it's all last minute studies, came the success of the "Reveries". Consecutive days of sleeping late... 5am... 4am... Reveries is just like my personal brand of caffeine, keeping me awake :)
and here comes summer vacation! (imagining the scene from High School Musical 2~)
my family went back to Taiwan. We went sightseeing then went to Taipei and EARTHQUAKE: Magnitude 3 Epicentre: Off the coast of Hualien 6.3 Magnitude. the quake lasted for 23seconds which is considered pretty long. The next few days we went to watch Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince. The special effects are excellent and the opening scene would look very cool in 3D. It's definitely funnier than previous installments but the plot/story of this movie seems to be not as well made as previous films. I'd give it a 4/5 ;) and then 2day... another EARTHQUAKE felt in Tai-Chung :) It's magnitude 1-2 and the epicentre is off the coast of I-Lan with a magnitude of 5+.
I would be going to Singapore next week! Visiting awesomez VICTORIA SCHOOL and all my old friends and teachers and tutors and Mrs Wong and then shopping @ ION ORCHARD if it opens up.... Chemistry'll be in the air!!! Haha!!!
Trip to US will be cancelled because we'll be going over to US next year anyways to attend my Sister's graduation ceremony so instead, we may be going to Hokkaido, Japan!!! :)
but then I have to remind myself that I have yet to finish Chinese homework and PP... sigh.... not inspired enough to work on it... and school's reopening in 40 days (as said by Hansika)?! Gosh... 10th Grade will be so worry-some and scary and I need to work harder @.@

and then I have quite a few dreams i dreamt lately... terrible dreams involving DEATH~ yikes... and other dreams... ... ...

alright... that's about all that happened so far...

signing off
WC

p.s. btw my old blog still exist but it will be locked up forever. it remains to be part of my life story and a reminder for myself that this will be a start of something new. i'll change for the better and everything :)
