i stood there facing d judges..an indian guy, an aus lady n another man whom i cannot 'see' wut his nationality/race is..i said my 'gud afternoons' n den d man said "wel..netime.."
so i started..at 1st my voice was so cracky n my throat so dry dat i paused 4 a milisecond in between these 2 sentences coz it was so hard 2 continue!!den without wanting my timing 2 go all out, i quickly got bek in2 d rhythm n continued singing..btw, i sang "b4 i fall in luv" by coco lee..thx esp 2 aishah, my hsemate, who suggested tis song..!wel den wen i was reaching d chorus, i took a deep breath (coz it was gonna b quite high) but d man suddenly started 2 shake his head n held up his hands in a "stop" gesture n my heart was like "uh-oh........i screwed it......." so i shut up..n den he let down his hands n said "FANTASTIC!!" n my heart went was like "OMG....hak sei ngor...!!" n den he said "can i ask u sum questions?" n i said "yea!"
man: hv u ever been in luv b4?
me: erm...no...
man: wel, hv u ever had ur heart broken?
me: yea i guess..
man: but dat was great!if u get 2 d nx round, its gud 2 sing ballades u noe..coz its slow, n u can inject alot of feelings into it..
