West Spring Idols

Didnt go anywhere during the weekends for a photoshoot. I was still ill, besides the weather was really raining cats and dogs! I’m not complaining though, its such a relief to have such wonderful cool weather after the hot spell. However there are quite a number of events that are coming up that are quite exciting. Firstly Juli’s final practical make up would be on this saturday and I’m sure she’ll do great :) There is also the Photoi field trip at the esplanade this sunday. The idea of testing out the lenses is very appealing to me. I’d love to check it out.

Following that, there are also some photography competitions from the copy of digital life newspaper from Express IT AND Great Eastern Life. How interesting.

Another interesting event was the West Spring Idols that was held on monday. Zila and me got to be guest judge for the week. (well, since the student alumni couldnt find anyone else and they were desperate for it)

Some of the students really knew how to shake their bootay.

And the audience came in by the droves!


With loads of loyal supporters


Wasnt my performance great? Guys? Guys??!! Hello??


No razak, even the rose that you’re holding is dying. That’s how bad your singing was.


So passionately Hakim sings a romantic rendition of Linkin Park’s In the end. We were in tears hearing it. Tears of laughter.


Will you stop digging my nose?!


Seriously, something stinks in here


So Ms Marina, what do you think of the overall performance this week?
Err .. umm .. uh … ehehehe … It was … interesting


No pictures or you will feel the wrath of the power of my magic palm!


What the heck? I only wanted to sit next to Ms Marina. MISS MARINAAAAAA!!!!
Humph


I could have been at home sleeping right now …


Why yes, you Do sound like a goat.


Interesting shot of one of the singer.

Okay, I’m just being a meanie. Not all of them were bad. But I have to say that there are some students who left an impression on me. Some of the songs that they chose to sing was definitely not suitable for their vocal range. I cringed when one of the MALE singers decided to sing Toni Braxton’s unbreak my heart … It really was broken at the end of the song. And when another singer decided to forcefully try to reach the high notes when she couldnt.

However, there were several stellar performances which I liked. Full of confidence and energy and coolness factor. Good luck to the final 6!

    Ms Marina??? What? no Ms Paula there also? Yes some of the pictures looked like they put heart soul and a few other things into the performance. But looked like fun. Especially the guy singing the Toni Braxton song. Maybe he should be an actor instead?

    oops not Toni Braxton, the pic with the guy singing the Linkin Park song. Sorry my memory has left the building!

    Hakim? He’s a very adorable student. Funny and cute and playful in class. He’s the class joker. So it was interesting to see how he was on stage. He wasnt a bad singer. I was just teasing for most of the singers :)

    oh I know you were kidding, but he really did like he was putting his heart and soul into that song in the pic.
