An evening with the stars @ Mediacorp



Hey guys, so if you guys didn’t know my family & I were on television last night! I’m here to share this once in a lifetime experience with you.

Filming

On the 27th of January my brother and I were just walking home from school when, the camera crew said “ Ok can you guys walk back up? We’re going to film you guys.” We did the same thing 3 times before we cloud go up to our apartment! After reaching home the producer said “ We’re going to interview you in 10 minutes .”  So I decided not to shower in order to save time. During my interview, I had to speak in Chinese, which was no easy task for me, thank god for the Chinese classes during my PAP days. Ha Ha. The filming was over and I so excited for the day of the live show.

The Big Night

The day of the show came, I was so happy to be on tv.  After returning from my cousin’s birthday party I took a short nap before going to the studio. At  4:45, the bus came to pick us up to send to us the studio here’s the funny thing the bus was empty, I kind of felt like the bus was our limo LOL. When we arrived we were escorted to the viewing where we had our dinner. After dinner we went to sit down on our seats. I kept going to the washroom, so they changed my seat closer to the exit. When my story came on tears were coming down from my eyes. After the show we managed to get our picture taken with one of the cast member of Point of Entry. It was a fun Now I’m famous lol.

never give up

Hey guys I'm back so let's begin our topic for today never giving up.
Have you ever been mocked by someone because of the way you look? Don't worry you are not alone.
I too also been mocked by people because of my handicap of not being able to walk whenever I  go out I will try to hide form people. Sometimes I even hear people whisper to themselves why is this boy so weird. It broke my heart once I head that. From that day onward I told myself I will prove these people wrong one day.
Sometime in early 2004 I was called by Mediacorp they said they needed some kids to sing the theme song of the President's star Charity. I  thought to myself  this is a chance to prove some people wrong.

Going to Mediacorp

So I was all set to embark on life-changing journey when I got to Mediacorp the first person I met was actor Mr Tay ping hui. So from there, we begun to bond with each other we were like best friends for a period of one moth. During the recording session which lasted over 5 hours. I have never been so tired in my whole life I felt like I wanted to give up. But with a few kind words from family and friends and more importantly the kind words of Mr Ping Hui. Knowing that my whole family was behind me the whole way I made up my mind to finish the song and not to give up.

The Big Night  

The night of the show finally came I was backstage trying to tell myself " you can do this your whole family is waiting for you to go live on-air!" So with that being said I sat down with the rest of the cast. At 8pm that night the show started off with a welcoming of the Guest Of Honour. Mr & Mrs SR Nathan that was my first time ever seen so many people in my entire life. After all the acts were over it was time for the Grand finale, this was my time to shine. When I stepped on stage I had the feeling of accomplishment the act of the entire cast singing Reach Out For Love ( The Theme song for the show) raised  a total of $4000 to the president challenge fund.I went backstage to tank Mr Ping Hui for being such a good mentor and friend.
And he said " You're welcome Wee Kiat you also have been a good fried to me too", so I said my goodbye to Mr Ping and all the kind people at Mediacorp. That night I went to bed with a smile upon knowing that I proved many people wrong.
