[Heheh.... this is just my opnion on my favorite singer from a Chinese version of American Idol.]

Question: So... were you ever a fan of a celebrity/singer? Why?

Another SuperGirl (HappyGirl just doesn't work for me in translation, sorry) competition is over, and again, my favorite competitor lost in the final rounds. I've watched the HuNan Channel since the summer of sixth grade, so it's been about four years. The first year I watched, I fell in love with BiBi. The second year... well, I wasn't a big fan of anyone in the competition. The third year... they weren't even girls, but I loved WeiChen (I will NOT tell his English name... it doesn't even make sense).

This is my fourth year of watching, and at first I found XiaoYun (alright, her name is Michelle, but calling her that makes me feel weird) a little awkward at singing and kind of pushing the tom-boy style on purpose. Still, as the show progressed, I found her more captivating and curious. Maybe it was her strength and that fierce look that caught me, but whatever it is, I was hooked. So yea, I watched like any regular fan and I (and probably her bunch of other fans) were moved by a short documentary on her singing ambitions. Of course, I won't end up on a big stage like that (or maybe I will?) and although she got second place, I'd be real disappointed if she stop producing more songs in the future.

By the way, I posted a message an hour after the actual SuperGirl show (I'm guessing China's showing is one hour earlier than the one in America) in English, since it's easier for me to express myself in English.
- Hey, I'm a fan. [A few moments after I wrote this message, I think it got deleted. Apparently, I'm only supposed to write in Chinese... er.... which I don't feel like attempting.]


This is what she looks like, if you're wondering... (probably not, though).


So these are the competitors who I was a fan of in previous competitions... and I still am!


 

Everyday, I would go on Facebook and comment on others' statuses and Feng-Shui my restaurant in Restaurant city. Now I realize how becasue of that, I have a very sad life. I so desperately need to communicate with others that I've come down to only commenting "Oh, I'm sorry that your house has termites" or "Congratulations!" when I rarely talk to them at school - very rarely.

Sure, Facebook is a good way to communicate, but it has become my ONLY way to communicate. Maybe because I'm too busy with my own thing (like... homework and drawing) that I like to use instant-communication whenever. Maybe that's why I never know what's going on with my friends because I'm never physically there. Therefore, my life has shrunk to shopping on Mafia Wars and hoping someone will be my buddy if I gift them a motorcycle.

Hopefully, school can help me come out of isolation. This is just too sad.

  I wrote this for my yearbook (yes! I'm on Yearbook!) practice page, some summer assignment where we have to write and design a layout for our summer photos. Because of privacy reasons, I *-ed out some personal info of where I live and my friends' last names.

     For most of my summer, I was cooped up in my room studying for the SAT. Every weekday, I went to ACI Academy for SAT class at nine o'clock in the morning, and wouldn’t be home until one thirty in the afternoon. After lunch, I would do my SAT homework until dinnertime, before which I would manage to squeeze in time to play my piano pieces - once. After dinner, I would go to Tae Kwon Do class, and come home sweaty and aching. Then I’d isolate myself again to do summer homework from school making my everyday bedtime around midnight. I was tired.
  
     Luckily, occasional activities with my friends and family relieved me of this misery.

     Afraid I might become sedentary from constantly sitting at the desk, my family persuaded me on a Saturday to wake up at eight and attend activities at the Great Park. At first I was reluctant to go, but by the time we left the park, I flew a kite, watched an amazing wind walking show, planted turnips in a ball of soil, and made a close relationship with the petting zoo's goat. 

     I was also in touch with my very good friends, Tiffany *** and Marcella ***, over the summer. Taking the Fourth of July fireworks at ****** High stadium as a rare opportunity to gather, Tiffany suggested that the three of us celebrate our nation's birthday together. At the stadium, I kindly shared kettle popcorn with Marcella and then kindly finished her funnel cake. At night, we enjoyed a breathtaking fireworks show and afterwards promised each other to watch the new Harry Potter movie together. 
    
     Of course, yearbook activities were one of my favorite events of the summer. I enjoyed every meeting, for they were all an early creativity boost for our big project. My fellow yearbookers and I bonded as we climbed on rough rocks, roasted marshmallows and hotdogs near the fire, and jumped off low walls. I was also very pleased with my notebook cover that I created at the ARTbar in a very beautiful area in Santa Ana. In other words, we had loads of fun.

Yea... it's not very good since I wrote it at like... one in the morning.
