David Choi ♥

I'm still in that bubble .. Can't believe I've met him in person and went to his gig (finally!). All I can say is that it has been the best birthday I've had.

My awesome brother told me I could tag along with him to meet David in person! He won this David Choi cover contest so he asked the organisers if he could bring someone and they said yes! like, SAY WHAT?! :D
We went and boy, was I blown away. Though it was obvious that he was totally beat (flight & all that hullabaloo), but I respect that he tried to stay cheery though out the whole thing. :) Go, David I'd say! Didn't say much.. too starstruck I supposed but it was nice to just be there and hear him sing live and unplugged. One of the best, money can't buy experience I've had. Just standing at the side, watching him doing his thing was just.. wow. The grand prize winner, Amrita got to sing with him and I LOVE her rendition of Let Go. The tune is still in my head till today .. yeap, it's that good. 

Took a photo and kept saying that it was "nice to meet him". Gosh, Connie, is that all you could say? -.- 
Made up my mind that I had to get them tickets to his show. *hope that it's still for sale*

Birthday eve!! :p Went to The Curve to get my 'BaoBei'.. the church's Fender hahaha. Did I tell you how much I love to go to the guitar store? But I don't cuz I'm not pro enough to be messing around with the expensive guitars and people at the store always intimidate me. So, whenever I could tag along with my brother, I would. At least, it felt legit to be there hahaha. 
ANYWAYS, Taylor guitars sounds much better.. or to my liking at least. I like the density in the sound.. and the feel while playing them. The bass (I love a really good bass-y guitar) in the model I was playing with was just amazing. I mean, who am I kidding? It was a RM4000 ++ guitar. o_o
But, my BaoBei is just as good so no complain there!
After picking BB up, we went to Rock Corner to try our luck and thank God there are still tickets for sale! Too bad, I couldn't get the student discount.. just because I didn't have student ID. I'm in a public school, of course I wouldn't own one. -.- ohwells. So much for great customer service really.
So yes, tickets in hand .. see you soon David! :D

D-DAYYYY!!! :D 내 나인 nineteen, vision은 HD ya'll!!! 
Last year of being a teen. Gosh, I feel old. Had church service as usual.. and awesome people sending their love. (THANK YOU GUYS!) and birthday lunch at one of my favourite place, Sankolok. Their tom yam is to-die-for. D: Just the right amount of sour-tangy and not short of the spicy too! The som tam was just mediocre.. according to my Mom and Brother anyways. I thought it was okay.. but since I wasn't a fan of som tam, my opinion honestly don't matter lol.

Went home and got ready for the show. We arrived on time.. had to just wait awhile to get in. 
The opening act was really good. Jenn Chia did a really good job despite that she said she was extremely nervous. Her originals, was really something to check out. So, make sure you do! :)

 After 3 songs, David Choi came on stage with the amazin' band! Kicking off with his more upbeat tune from his 'Forever And Ever' album, Can't Take This Away ( i think :p) , he sets the mood for the night. The setlist was arranged impeccably and flowed from one tune to the next. During mini breaks in between, he lighten up the mood with jokes, giving away posters with his autograph, more jokes (didn't know he was this funny), and manage to Instagram as well. Well, he did a sweep of the crowd and the band as well as himself goofing off .. as a video to be posted up soon. (i hope.) Such a talented dude. 

I felt it was a little short... but maybe that's just me. Perhaps, I was having such a great time I didn't realise how time flies. Told you he was that good! Major thumb up from me. I left the show with a mental note that I HAVE to go back again when he return for his next Asia/Aussie tour. :)

Had birthday dinner after that at Bubba Gump (my first!) and I loved it. Love the movie and the food and the place. WAHHH must go back if I could. :p

This has been the best week I've had. Best birthday I've had. I really thank God for all these. :)

till then, 
this is me, signing off.


See you soon, David! :)
