I haven't been doing much lately.. same stuff.. housework, tv, movies, reading, listening to music.. as much as im deadly bored this hols, i don't think i'm ready to face school just yet. oh well, it's not like time is gg to wait for any of us to fully ready ourselves for school term. i'm already getting the beegeebies goosebumps thinking about sec 3 life. and damn, time really really flies mann.. it really felt like i was just in sec 1 not so long ago. and wow, next year i'm alr gonna be in upper sec. and then sooner than it seems, i'll find myself in jc. we're all getting old i guess. and hopefully more matured.
k, so to reflect on certain things. like the asian idol. well yeah, congratulations to hady mirza for winning asian idol for s'pore. well, i didn't vote for anybody but my cuz spent 30 bucks voting for hady which means 60 votes. my dad was thinking that things would be a lot easier if we are able to vote for the idols in a kinda package thing or smthg. like if you want to vote 60 votes for hady and someone else [cos the system was 1 vote 2 choices] then just like book 60 votes in one ago. the money will still be the same. it will save time and energy sending only 1 sms requesting 60 votes rather than sending 60 smses. besides, it's an easier anyway to count.
anyway, i think hady did quite a good job with his performances. he has the voice and i suppose the looks. but honestly, i didn't expect hady to win. i'm not undervaluing local talents. it's just that s'pore has a small no of citizens compared to the other countries and if the judges has a big influence on the audiences then i don't think people will vote for hady. but hey, he won!
anyway, i always thought the whole idol thing isn't flawless. i mean yeah, it is suppose to be a singing competition but reality check, looks always play a part in getting votes. if some guy is more gd looking and his voice isn't so gd, people will still vote for him. girls can go all cair over him and then they'll be having thumb cramps for voting too much and perhaps that dude will get more votes than for guy who has a much nicer voice but ain't good looking. and then there's the social factor. like how many contacts each contestant has and how willing are those contacts to part with a large sum of money just to vote. and there's just the charm and the x factor that wins the hearts of people. and not everybody has that. sometimes, it's just what you're born with. so it's either you have it or you don't. and that's a difficult thing to count for.
ok.. i'm off to shower.
