Dream A Little Dream...

Have been watching some singing competitions from Hong Kong and Taiwan. The program from Hong Kong is titled "The Voice" whereas the one from Taiwan is titled "A Million Stars, Season 5".





From both programs, there are so many singers wan-to-be. Some are really good whereas some are more entertaining instead. And the best thing from both programs is having the chance to listen to really good voices. Some were so good when they performed that their singings melted my heart. And both programs also have really good singers sitting in as judges to give comments and teaching the contestants singing techniques, so in away the judges are like teaching the viewers as well. And viewers like me, who knows nothing about singing, feel like finally we are learning something and then the itchiness of wanting to go for a karaoke session will ARISE!


The last time i had my "concert" session was before i left for Oran. That was so fun! Together with my 2 friends, we sang until wee hours in the morning. What was suppose to be a 2 hours session ended up into a 5 hours session! In the "concert" room, we sang as if there was no tomorrow. We were shouting until our throats burned, we stood up to dance but of course we cant dance, we were trying to act emotional when we sang love songs (which we cant) but overall it was so fun! At the end of the evening, we were all exhausted from the shouting (not singing!) and left happily, thinking that we were the lost gems that the singing producers have not found. If only they saw our singing we were so sure that we will be the next best singer in the entire world!

Karaoke is a great place! Simply because it is in this "concert" room that we have all the fun, the chance to dream of being a star, the hopes in us and the laughters we shared. But best of all, is the short 2 minutes of having the mic in our hand and imaging that for that short 2 minutes, we are the star and all eyes are on us. Hee.. for all the fun, hopes, dreams and imaginations, the cost? Less that Rm100 each. Worth every single penny!
