Sorry for the really long wait due to yours truly’s lengendary bout of laziness..Haha. To read on the previous parts, here are Part 1 and Part 2.

Here are the rest of the pictures, and I do mean pictures, because I am too lazy to recall and type out the details. All I want to say is that, I am kind of disappointed that Ah Xing didnt sing the more popular duet “Ming Ming Hen Ai Ni” with Liang Jing Ru. It would have been a really fun song for them. Anyway, I really prefer Ah Xing to shout out his songs rather than singing his songs like a normal singer. That’s his groove, baby! Jing Ru re-appreared for her encore (expected it to happen. The lights were off. Duh! Who off the lights when the concert is supposedly to be over? Her encore session is really so much more fun than the beginning portion, with more banter and teasing and singing other singers’ songs, such as 伤痕 (林忆莲’s song from eons ago).

P/S: Sorry for thinking this way, but I still find that the cheerleaders have the word, “EXTRA” tattooed over their foreheads… Waving the fire sticks thingy is like so years ago.

Despite all the publicity and media reports on such scams, there’s still plentiful of such scams going on. They always go by the same sequence or with some differences for the sake of variety. First, you received a telephone call from an unknown number from a China-accented person to do a survey by some company. After that, you will receive another call a few days later that you are being invited to an event in some convention centre. On that day or the day after, the same person will call and inform you that you have won a prize in a lucky draw that you won’t even know that you are in it. I think that part is sort of to have you think that you joined the lucky draw because of the survey. So, you have won something but to collect it, you will have to pay a percentage of the money as tax/trust insurance/administration fee or whatever they call it in order to collect your prize money. Apparently, there’s no lack of idiots in this world, people still fall for such scams due to their greed.

I received such a call last year but brushed it off. But a few days ago, I got another such call. This time, I decided to play along and do a bit of detective work. I questioned the lady why I should pay the tax to the Hong Kong government when I am a Singaporean. I don’t even think that there’s a tax on lottery or lucky draw winnings in Singapore or Hong Kong. I managed to get a phone number and a website address from the lady. That’s where things starts falling apart for her, the website redirects to a company of the same name but does mortgages instead of the electronics like the scammer told me. Furthermore, the web address is only registered in November 2007 (There’s what you get when you are dealing with an IT savvy person). Anyway, I am still considering if I should report this to the Police at the moment. So stay tuned to my detective work.

I don’t really like dolls, and the Blythe Dolls are no exception. However, I do love their clothes and the collection never fails to amaze me. To me, Barbie’s clothes collection pale in comparison with Blythe’s exquisite designs. This is exceptionally so, when you have dedicated people like Superblythe, who offer handmade clothes for your Blythe dolls!

Here are some of my favourite designs (roll over to view the item name):

 The price range for the dresses range from $8.00 to $28.00. For reviews, you can read the comments from the people who bought from Superblythe HERE.

Hey all, here’s the next batch of photos from the concert! Alternatively, you can also read Part 1 of the concert!

Shortly after her costume change, Liang Jing Ru re-emerged.

There was this couple role-playing during one of the songs, which I find were rather out of place. They walked across the stage, holding hands and the guy was holding on to the biggest suitcase I ever saw in my whole life. I guess it’s not just me, because I overheard a girl behind me muttering, “The luggage is freaking big!” The stage couple stopped in the middle, a short distance beside Jing Ru, put the suitcase on the floor, and then walked off hand in hand. Okay… I didn’t really know what to make of that. It turns out that in the ending lines of the song, Jing Ru went over and knelt beside the suitcase, opened it, and out comes a row of balloons (secured by a line). Okay…

Liang Jing Ru mingling with the crowds. Later on, a group of fans were screaming, “Jing Ru, I Love You!” to which she remark with a pout that, “How come you didn’t tell me just now when I was walking around? You were all frantically taking my pictures only!”

Earlier on, Xavi was telling me about the ‘tradition’ of Fish Leong’s concert – Couples would take this opportunity at her concert to propose to their other half, or to declare their love and appreciate.

After all, this year’s concert was titled “Liang Jing Ru Qing Ren Yan Chang Hui”, so I had somewhat expected there to be a session of such declaration. However, all I saw were clips of past couples and their declaration. Luckily, some of the featured celebrities made the video clips darn interesting.

I love Mayday’s portion of the video! See them mimicking the poster in the background of the first picture! They were hilarious with their love declarations and marriage proposals to each other!

Liang Jing Ru’s fan club, Fish Dream. Okay…

Once the clip ended, Fish Leong re-appeared.

(See Maydays’ Ah Xing in Part 3!)

Last Saturday, I went to Fish Leong’s concert thanks to Xavi’s invitation. Here are the pictures from the concert, enjoy! Apologies for any unclear pictures!

It’s quite amazing to see what the audience are doing. We thought that we were watching a movie, and not a concert. See the number of newspaper readers? Well, probably it was because one of the sponsors were MyPaper, and they were giving copies out.

 We were sitting in the S$130 seats that were on the left side of the stage. Fish Leong is like a little girl, very pro in 撒娇, looking very cute in the process. She kept referring to the second level (cheapest tickets) as “你们在山顶上的人，听到吗？” and that starting from now on, they must start to save for her concert next year (if any).

 I couldn’t help smiling during the first song. The cameraman decided it was fun showing the back-up singers’ face every few seconds.

These team of cheerleaders is from Republic Polytechnic, which doesn’t impress me much really. Don’t get me wrong, but I just find that their co-ordination was way out of sync, even though they do earn some points in making a human pyramid during the song.

Liang Jing Ru’s stylist fixing her hair accessory. Look, they even have that boat that often linked to a romantic row around the river. Anyone know what do you call that kind of boat?

The lights were very pretty.

This is the first of the acts which performed while Liang Jing Ru went for her costume change. The couple was fabulous, swinging effortless round and round, without any precautionary measures (such as a net beneath them). They drew quite a few gasps from the audience.
