The events happened last year. So yeah, I am bit late for this. Anyway, on the 20th, it's the activity day for those with VIP tickets at KBox at E! Hub or something. I reached there earlier at around 3pm to help tend the ticketing booth, wrapped some presents, wrote an essay for Aska, tried to study for my diploma exam which was two days late and did loads and loads of manual labour.
It was around 8pm when Aska arrived. Was very excited and very jumpy hehe. The few of us (also known as ZXYZ for easy reference) were forming this human barricade thingo because people were abit scared that crazy fans would jump onto him lol (uhm human barricade sounds a bit stupid :\).
Before he arrived, I took a picture of a part of the crowd.
I was already screaming when we were stationed at the door before he arrived yoy. So when he appeared at the corridor I was forced to appear calm by the other ZXYZ people (even though my insides were sceaming) because we were the first few to see him as the barricades like us are stationed outside the entrance :D
Even though everytime Aska came to town, I was being tied down with school stuff, I still manage find myself the bestest position ever whoohoo. Proof below.
I was taking a picture of the crowd instead of him D:
I must be crazy.
Presented him with a trophy for the Singapore Hits award.
(I've never paid attention to the award until
Aska won 5 of them this year :D)
He seems really happy yay :D
Andrew and Aska cutting log cake.
Look at Andrew's expression D:
After the interview session,
he shifted from the chair in front of me
to the comfy sofa beside me (!!!) for some activity.
I think it was either Sandra or Felicia who took this.
Whoever you are, I love you (':
Felicia, Eeling and me.
I did the craziest thing by singing infront of him.
Was cheated into it -_-
But Aska said he love our chorus (yah chorus only la)
and dunno what voices best out of all the groups yo! :DDDDDD
When the activity ended, we became the human barricade again and this time it was really different because almost everyone became crazy and rushed towards him. So he was somehow walking directly infront of me (!!) and this person behind tried to get close with him and therefore pushed me which resulted in me plastered onto him at the front :D Thank you, whoever you are, I love you for pushing meeee :D
And I walked like that with Aska for about 20 metres? Whoooo. When the crowd dispersed, I was still walking infront of him, backwards. Of course not plastered anymore because I've got no reason to be plastered on hime anymore ): So yeah, walked backwards for another few metres and I tripped over the flat floor, "whoaaaaaa"ed, and nearly fell. Right infront of him D: But he told me to be careful soooo yeah. Not that bad after all.
So we went into this KTV room. And I don't think we're supposed to be there? So I was walking after Aska, helping him to carry his presents and the bouncer/security was asking, "Are you the crew?" and I was like "Errr yah, these are his presents," while shaking those paper bags slightly. Afterall I helped tend the ticketing booth for a while, went there early for preparations, packed goody bags the next day for the concert, arranged chairs, and those random stuffs? So he nodded and I squeezed in, and people followed suit.
And while we're inside the room, nobody said anything about us not being allowed to stay in the room. Not Aska, not 929, not some others who have the authority to chase us out. So maybe we are supposed to be there afterall? :D
We talked for a bit and randomly started taking group and individual photos. I have like 6 group ones and 3 individual ones. From Sychi's who was the photographer for the trip, mine and a few others?
When it was my turn to take the individual photo, we talked again for a bit and even though he was like Meizhen-ing me, it was okay <3>But seriously, only the Singapore ones really knows my name, but they, along with any other, name me as what Aska thought my name was. Aiyah, better than nothing lah. And I got a hug from him! So it couldn't be any better :D
I was really touched and
I cried buckets during the activity session T.T
I had no idea it was possible for me to cry even more at the concert.

I was sooooo excited for this! VIP tickets at the second row, directly behind the media people and those VVIPs whoahaha :D So I went there early at around 2pm to help out again. I got lost trying to find my way to Kallang CC and Eeling had to try make my way through phonecalls.
When I finally arrived, I helped to pin this huge banner at the ceiling area. Some changes were made and we decided not to place it there anymore so I climbed down the chair, my hands raised and stretched to the maximum as I don't want to drag it across the floor while doing this tap-your-feet-and-twirl-around thing? So I did that for 10 steps or so before I looked what's infront of me.
And bam. Aska was standing infront of me, getting ready for the rehearsal while laughing at my stupidity. And yes, at me because I was the only one at the area and eye contacts whoohoo. Of all people, I have to make a fool out of myself infront of this certain very import and and special someone for the third time in less than 10 hours? Wow, that is really smart of me.
Even though I'm deeply embarassed by the fact, I still managed to wave weakly at him and thankfully, he waved back. If not, I would look even more idiotic. And this is that banner urgh.
Managed to snap a few pictures before
being chased out by random security
before the rehearsal starts.
Concert started at 8pm I think.
Before comfortably seated,
I was doing things for the concert like packing goody bags (lol)
for six hours straight,
and the only meal I had was breakfast.
But I wasn't hungry at all :D
Hmm yeah, the ever famous Andrew beside me.
I was crying all the wayyyyyy throughout the concert.
But there's some funny parts and I managed not to cry.
There were way more people than what I expected.
All 800 of the chairs we stacked were fully seated
and it was a really weird and overwhelming feeling.
I cried not entirely because of the songs he sang,
but more of what we experienced during the two days of events.
We put in alot of hard work for it
and made this music showcase successful?
This wasn't held in some fancy place like the indoor stadium,
where there is a whole team of professionals
taking charge of the concert.
We don't have any of them to do that.
We took charge of the whole performence.
And we all, as the fanclub, have a share in making this successful (':
Below are some pictures from dove from the forum :D
Singapore ones.
Those who helped out (:
Doves from Singapore, Malaysia, HongKong, Taiwan and USA.While taking the second picture, Aska was leaving ): And being the ever animated person I was, right after the picture was taken, I dashed out of the hall, towards the main road, passed by the car which he was seated in while he was still saying goodbye to the others, sprinted onwards to the curve at the road :D So when the driver drived away, Aska was bound to pass by and notice me :DD And I almost melted when he said byebye to me! :DDDDDDDDDD
And when he looked into my eyes (!!) and told me to be careful as I was always not taking care of myself. I swear it was the epitome of whatever it can be (':
