Singing has been one of my hobby since I was young. I never thought I can maintain this hobby until this age. I really love to sing and I love when I can sing one song completely without forgetting the lyrics. Talking about why I will start singing, I guess it's because Stefanie Sun. When I was 8, I started to admire her and I bought her discs, never stop listening until I got familiar with all her songs. Mom bought me a CD player just to play all her discs, I am glad that mom was so supporting but I guess she never realized that I can actually sing, that's the reason why now I am still singing only In Karaoke. Lol. Stefanie Sun actually become my role model and I wanted to be like her in many many ways, I love to collect all articles about her, pictures from the magazines and also newspaper. I got great pleasure in doing all these during my childhood.
Remember when I was in primary 2, I was selected to be class representative for singing competition. That's my first time singing in front of all my friends and teachers. I didn't win and have no confident in my voice and have been remembered by friends because of the song I chose is one of the song we sang for choir. I was once choir member too during primary 2 to 4. Got kicked out by teacher because I didn't practice or didn't sing well. I never sing again in front of ppl until form 4.
During form 4, once we went to redbox and my friends accidentally realized that I can sing quite well and asked me to join Leo idol. They gave me confident and encouraged me to stand on the stage and so I did it in form 5. I went for Audition and I was chosen as Top 10, then I joined final on that day too. And of course this was my first time standing in auditorium facing audiences. You can't see any faces when you were on stage, nervous strikes! What judges said about is they think I can handle English songs better than Chinese's, they claimed that the song I chose is not suitable for me and this really made me stopped singing that particular song for years. Haha. I never have the courage to sing that song again. But I have made it recently singing back this old song. I sing because I like to sing and its my hobby, I don't actually sing to perform or join competition. I just simply love to sing so much and this is the way I release my tension or seek happiness. Thanks god that I have sort of nice voice, I appreciate it. :)
