Singapore Hit Awards 2007

I had planned to spend a whole day at home, resting, after all that late nights. So Saturday was designated as my off day. I had to recharge and recuperate. My pimples are blossoming, because its time of the year.

Ahh well.

Somebody spoiled my plan. That somebody told me out of a sudden that she had free tickets to the Singapore Hit Awards held at the indoor stadium. And bang. Off I went bathing and getting a change of clothes. This was something not to be missed, well at least that's what I felt before I went.

Went straight to Violet's home. Borrowed her camera. Thanks. Even though I would have preferred to have a camera with auto-focus and on full batt. Anyway its high time since I last went to the indoor stadium. The last time I went was for some Mickey mouse shit.

And I must admit I suck at photography. I think I have parkinson's disease. My hands keep shaking. Perhaps my fingers are too long.

Take 1: My fingers failed me.

Take 2: Some idiot walk past. My timing failed me.

Take 3: I hate my fingers. Well at least they dont 'vibrate' when I eat.

Went into the arena. Seating was alright. Considering its a free ticket. But there is this leaning tower that keeps getting into my line of sight.

Can you spot it. The leaning tower of Singapore.

Unfortunately, I could'nt get clear and defined images of celebrities. First thing first, we were too far away. Second, the camera don't have a auto focus function. Alright, maybe my hands were shaking, but the celebrities were moving too.

Not much of a pity because my favourite celebrities were not there.

Wheres lihom.
Wheres Mayday.
Wheres Jolin.

You know. Theres a policy with the Singapore hit awards. This is a dialouge which I happen to get hold off with one Singapore hit awards' organizer talking to Fang ma tong.

Organizer "Hello, ma tong. I am calling from the Singapore hit awards committee. Can I have 5 minutes of your time?"

Ma tong "Ohhh. I see. Let me guess, you wanna invite me to your programme right?"

Organizer "Wow you smart ass. Thats my sentiments exactly. So would you like to come?"

Ma tong "Ahh well. you see. hmmm. I am not one that loves money. but some would be good."

Organizer "Money would not be a problem. Anyway, just to let you know, if you have any requests you can just say directly, don't shit around the bush.

Ma tong"You really understand me well, regarding the awards, am I even in the list of nominees"

Organizer "Not to worry sir, you will be, if you attend our programme"

Ma tong "Ohh wonderful, so what are the chances of me winning"

Organizer "That I will not be sure and I have to check with the judges. But what I am sure is that if you come, you win. Simple"

Ma tong "Wooo. Great. That means I don't have to make a futile trip"

Organizer "So I have it that you, Mr Toilet Bowl Fang Ma Tong, will be able to attend the programme on the 27 Oct 2007, any withdrawal will lead to a compensation of $1. This phone conversation will be recorded and taken as a form of contract. In any case of discrepencies, it will be used as court evidence. Thank you very much for your time"

Well. I guess this is what is happening. Maybe Singapore hits award's mission statement is, "You come, you get". Simple but powerful statement.

On an end note.

Rollercoaster rides for you?
