The power of Social Media


Social media is so widely used these days. I think it’s great for people like me because I can keep in touch with family and friends without having to go anywhere, I can just sit in front of my laptop and start chatting with my family and friends. Before I found out about Facebook, Twitter and whatsapp the only way I could communicate was by calling or meeting the person face to face to talk, there are 2 reasons why I dislike the 2 things I have just mentioned 1. Talking on the phone for long hours will make your bill high and you are talking out loud and everyone will know what you are talking about. 2. Going to meet the person- If I didn’t want to call I would have to meet the person, which is tiring for me and my parents to travel all the way just to tell that person that one piece of info. Now that most of us have whatsapps or facebook it’s ease to share info.
Social media is also an awesome way to remember events. Sure you can take pictures and save them on your computer but what if your computer breaks down the next day? If you upload the pictures onto any social network it’s going to be there forever, for you to remember and cherish the event.
Me and my extended family very rarely meet up but now when we meet up we have something to talk about. Let’s say my cousin just got back from an overseas trip and if he or she talks about it on facebook, we can ask things like “ Hey how was your trip?”  We start talking about it. Social networking is great but nothing is better than doing things as family and friends in real life because real relationships are what keep us close. J

why am I so awkward ?


So if you guys didn't know I'm usually very awkward. For example when I meet someone new I’ll be like “ Oh no what should I say to impress this person?” I normally wait for the person to make the first move. Even when I’m having my weekly speech therapy session, there will always be an awkward silence at any time. I always live in my own imaginary world. Sometimes when I’m sitting down at the dinner table with my siblings. They start talking and I have no idea what they talk about. Well I know what they talk mostly talk about school. I find it hard to relate to the topic because I don’t go to a mainstream school like they do. So yeah those are reasons why so awkward See you LWK

" What Do You want to be when you grow up? "


“ What do you want to be when you grow up?” is a question commonly asked by parents to their child or children at a young age. My mum & dad asked me that question when I was 6 or 7 years old and my answer would always be“ I don’t know yet.” Now that I’m older I start to think about what I want to work as. So here’s a list of the top 5 jobs that I want to work as and the reason why I want it.
 5. Radio DJ
I think that a Radio DJ is a good job for me because I get to combine my two passions of Music and interacting with others together and I don’t have to move around so much. I would like to go to many events to meet many famous people. The radio station I would love to work at would be 987FM because they play my favourite kind of music. If I could pick any 987FM DJ to be my partner it will be the muttons because they are extremely funny.
4. Child counsellor
I really like helping children feel their best so I think that after leaving school I might go to MCYS to sign up as a volunteer child counsellor, to see how is it like being a child counsellor. I like helping children because; I believe that childhood should be the happiest time in one’s life. I see the value in giving a helping hand to children who need it.
3. Actor
I’m no stranger when it comes to being in front of the camera. Ever since I was young I was on television on posters and magazines. So think I want to chase my dream of becoming an actor at mediacorp.  I would most likely act on channel 5 because my Chinese is not that good Ha Ha. I would like to get the leading role in one of the English crime dramas. The person I would co-star with would be Mr Tay Ping Hui.
2. Hollywood movie director
I would like to fly to Hollywood to become a movie director. The people I would induce in my movie are jet li, Jackie Chan and Kim Kardashian  I will make sure that my movie has the right amounts of fight scenes, romance and a lot of action.
1.     YouTube star
 My number one dream job is to be a YouTube star. But I'm too shy to post my videos on Youtube because I'm afraid of the mean comments. If I do get famous off YouTube  I would like to meet my favourite youtuber Jason Chen and do a song cover with him.
See YouJ

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.

My first dental check up

So I was just finishing up my week of school. When my mum came to pick me from school to go home, everything was fine until I got to my grandmother’s house. I was angry at myself for not doing well in school so I was forcing my walking aid to go up to my grandmother house. Little did I know it wasn’t up yet, so I bent my body forward and I fell face first onto the floor. My tooth was broken! My gum was bleeding, I was yelling in pain. My mum & dad took me home to rest.
At 11pm my parents took me to the A&E department of KK woman’s and children’s hospital. After a 30-minute wait, we went into the doctor’s office. The doctor said that he had to refer me to another hospital. After we got to the new hospital, we immediately went to the doctor’s office. In the office I had a fear of not having not my handsome face, luckily the doctor said “ Don’t worry we can ask your local dentist to make you new tooth.” I let a shing of relief.
It was  scary but lesson learnt  never get angry at things that you can try again. 
Let me know when was the last you got your tooth remove? Leave your answers below in the comments below See you!

Be Your True Self


Have you ever had this feeling where by you will do anything to fit in to your friends? You would even have to change your personality  just to fit in with your friends. You might feel happy that you are fitting in with your friends but you’re hiding your true self so why are being a fake just to fit in? It’s better to be friends with people who like you for who you really are. I don’t have that many friends because I'm afraid that the person might not like me for who I really am,and  that’s why I'm so picky when it comes to making friends. I'm afraid that if one person knows too much about me they might back stab me or talk bad about me behind my back. I try my best to choose people that seem trustworthy to be my friends. I try to keep my trust with my friends, so our friendships can remain strong. Now being your true self is not always the right thing to do. Sometimes I have to try see my friends’ point of view, there are times where am too focused on myself to listen to my friends talk about themselves. I'm now trying to get rid of  this bad habit. Be yourself and people will like much more this way J

CNY 2013


Hi everyone, as you know Chinese New Year  pasted a few days ago I’m here to share my thoughts about the 72 hour celebration.
Reunion Dinner  
For the reunion we went to my grandmother’s house for our annul dinner. We arrived at 7 Pm as dinner would only began once all my relativities had arrived so I decided to have a little chat with my uncle. We were talking about the top 5 things to do in the Untied States. My uncle’s top 5 things to do is not really my cup of tea. At 7:30 the dinner finally began, first we tossed the lou Hei in the air, I accidentally tossed mine onto the floor!! After we finished with the Lou Hei I enjoyed my grandmother’s special one year once Buddha jumps over wall soup. After dinner my grandmother gave me my first red packet for the New Year. My parents said that they were going to get some groceries, so I said ok. While my parents were out getting groceries, I was playing my aunt’s Ipad, I was playing cooking game where you have to cook anything for the kids, I was doing some really lame stuff. After 3 hours of playing with the Ipad, my siblings and I went home. We saw our parents and I asked “ Mum Dad where did you go?!”
 They said, “ We went to Lim Chu Kang to get some flowers.” My mind was blown, why would my parents go so far just to buy flowers. After awaking from my shock I went to bed to get some much needed rest.

Day 1

Woke up in joy on the first day of the New Year, I crawled onto my Mum and Dad’s   bed to wish them a happy new year. Soon after wishing my parents a happy New Year, I was rewarded with a red packet. After getting the red packet from my parents I went into the shower and when I came out, I heard a parody of psy’s Gangnam style, instead of Gangnam style it was God of fortune style LOL. After I finished with my shower I went to the living room to wait for everyone, once everyone was ready we took a few family pictures, some of them were really funny. After taking a few pictures we went to my grandparent’s house to wish them a happy new year. I didn’t really do much over there. At 10am we were supposed to go to my aunt’s house but it was raining, so we had to wait for an hour before going. After an hour of waiting we finally went to my aunt’s house. At my aunt’s house I played with my cousin’s Xbox kenict,. I had a hard time playing because I was sitting on the floor and it was hard for the motion sensor to detect my movements. When my cousins and I were about begin our game of blackjack, my mum said “ Wee Kiat we have to go brother’s sick!” So we went home. Once we got home, I remembered that it was my grandaunt’s birthday I ran to my grandmother’s house to wish her a happy birthday. After that I came home to get some rest.

Day 2

Woke up super early on this day, I quickly got dressed and ran to my grandmother’s house. Once I arrived at my grandmother’s house, I saw my cousins sitting there doing nothing. That was until my aunt passed the I pad and said “ ten minutes each Wee kiat will be the time manger ok?” Once they got hold of the Ipad, one of them kept asking me “ When is it my turn Mr time manger?”
I said, “ I’ll inform when it’s your turn Ok?”





After being the time manger for my two cousins. I wanted to have my lunch but there’s long line for a seat, so I had wait a while. My parents were at a temple praying for us. Then I decided to call her to find why they were taking so long, but her phone was turned off. I was waiting for my cousin to arrive. At 4pm they came, I decided to challenge my 7-year-old cousin to a push up contest. He ended up beating me. At 6 pm we were all in room playing my uncle’s Iphone 5. My brother & older cousin were playing a game called thunder cats. At 7:30 we had to say goodbye. For me it was a fun 3 day gathering.J

How I found my passion for Music

Music has always been my passion, I started to enjoy music at a very young age. My aunt was the one who exposed me to music.Every weekend my aunt would turn on her jukebox to the maximum volume, until my parents got a headache almost every week LOL .My aunt introduced me to some old school music such as Michael Jackson, Boney M and boogie wonderland. Everyday my aunt tested  me on the lyrics of a song. For example she would sing a song halfway and I would have to finish the rest of the song. Sometimes I even could sing the whole song, during that time my dream was to perform on stages.
In 2004 that dream came true for me as I went to Mediacorp to record the theme song for the President's star challenge. The recoding session was tiring. Now I know how much work the famous singers have to produce one song!!
In 2006 when I went into a new school,it was easy for me to pick my CCA - Music & Dance. When I got into the CCA I was so happy to be able to chase my dream of preforming in front of crowds. I later found out that it was not easy being a performer, I had to rehearse the same song for 8 weeks  for 2 hours every Tuesday, but when I get onto that stage I hear people clap for me at the end of my performance makes all the hard work worth it.
2010 was a big year for me in music because I won the award for best for best progress student. Finally all my years of being the best that I can be, I got the award. 2010 was also the year that my older sister introduced me to YouTube singers like Jason Chen and David Choi, I 've been listening to their music ever since then. I went to search for more YouTube singers I found Joseph Vincent, Axle Goot. I never knew that people could get  famous off YouTube
Music is my Passion and it will always be :)
