等待是值得的

7 December 2007

Woke up with an unsure feeling whether I should leave for Bugis at 2pm for 星光四少签唱会 which was to start at 7pm. Judging from the crowd at the airport yesterday, I thought it would be safe to arrive slightly after 3pm. But shockingly many fans were already there. The barricade that was set up for us to queue was already fully occupied, we had to queue all the way to the fountain area and that would mean that when they are performing, I won't be able to see them! I decided to forgo their autographs and stood behind the barricade which still give us quite a good view of them. We started waiting from 4pm. Then it started to drizzle and then it poured!!! I stood in the rain under my little umbrella for an hour! I was very tempted to give up and leave my good spot for shelter but TML messaged me asking me to perservere. She said 等待是值得的. Finally the rain relented but my shoes and socks were soaked through. After standing for 3 hours, around 6pm the crowd increased and finally 7pm came. They were quite punctual. Each of them sang two songs. Their voices weren't in tip-top condition, quite disappointing. The only one that was good that day was Stanly. Judy was fantastic with his dance moves! He's actually very cute in person, he smiles alot, poses alot, very steady. Yoga is very cheeky and playful. Cute. As for Peter, the usual quiet and boring self but I still like him! I think the number of fans each of them have is almost equal but I frequently hear screams for Judy and surprisingly, Stanly. Stanly is good-looking and very photogenic. Maybe they interacted more with the crowd, that's why more well-liked? The place was packed with people and when the autograph session started, I managed to squeeze my way through the crowd to the side of the stage near Starbucks. I got a very close up view of them! So happy! I decided to wait till the autograph session is over to take a good picture of them when they stood up to leave. It was a good move! I managed to get a good video clip of them! But the queue was super long! They actually started signing at 8pm and ended at 9.45pm. Their hands must be very tired. Oh and we noticed that Peter is actually left-handed! Their fan club came and stood beside us and standing screaming their names. Very ear-piercing but they also aided in helping me to get a good video clip. Hehe! 等待是really值得的. But I left the place with a little regret for not getting their autographs...
