Chris Daughtry



Won a pair of tickets to watch Chris Daughtry live in Singapore. I was estatic. I totally forgot he was coming even. I joined Samsung Fun Club and took part in the contest. Then last Tuesday, I got a call while at work- "Are you Ian Michael Binny, Samsung Fun Club member?" "Yes." was my reply. "You've won a pair of tickets to watch Chris Daughty live." "Alright! Yeah!" "Ok, ya, just come down to St. James Powerstation to collect your tickets." His reply totally brought my excitement about it down a bit. But after the call, I was glad that I won a pair of tickets to watch my favourite American Idol artiste. I don't even own a Samsung phone! Haha....
The day came and I was shocked to see a hellava long queue. There were hundreds of people there. I was thinking to myself, "How can everyone fit into this place? Is it that big?" I was right. I was one of the last few allowed in, and there was still a long queue stretching around the building. My guess is that the rest didnt get in. And most were winners like me. St. James was grossly overbooked and overcrowded. I brought Jasmine along who couldn't see a thing, and was squashed against the wall for the most part. I enjoyed the music but was dissapointed at the lack of planning by the organisers. It was too badly planned. I had to apologise to Jasmine for the lack of everything. After all that, she still offered me a Chris Daughtry poster signed by the band, which was given by her friend. Thanks Jas! Really appreciate it.
Other than that, I was not feeling so well on Friday. Started with a sore throat on Thursday, and feeling down, then went on to running nose on Friday, and still feeling down, but I seem to have recovered today, Saturday. Thank goodness I didn't get fever. I really used all my strength to show that I feel fine while I was sick. Don't want to bring others down while I'm sick. Though I really had to cancel on the Friday outing with my colleagues. Sorry guys. But I really needed the rest. There's actually other things that I want to write on my blog, but I'm worried that it will be read. Tsk... Too bad people. But I guess if you are close to me, you will know sooner or later. So till then, I'll end my post here. Haha.... Don't be sad, I'll still leave you with wise sayings from Ynnib Nai-
Don't be irreplaceable; if you can't be replaced, you can't be promoted.
