Hmm... Was surfing thru the SI offical webbie to see if there're any video updates. Seems there is no more le. Cuz I missed the episode before the finals. Heard from my sis Taufik actually cried on the show. Nvm.... And here I came across David's Blog entry. And here it goes..
Well I guess this is it. The competition is finally over. Being a part of whatever happened last night just gave me many thoughts. Here are some of them.br>It was great to be back on stage and performing. Like I said when I was interviewed, the thing I missed most since I got eliminated was performing on stage. It was awesome to be able to perform in front of 7000 screaming fans in the Indoor Stadium. It was my first, but hopefully not my last! =)
When I heard the boys sing I Dream, I was really inspired to dream. For the two of them, as well as some of the other contestants like Beverly and Jeassea, they knew all along that singing and performing were their passions, and that they are going to pursue it no matter what. I realised that in my life, I have just been blindly following where circumstances lead me. When I played rugby in JC, that was my passion, and I trained hard to be a good rugby player. When I started skating and got a chance to perform for McDonald's (just make a trip to East Coast Mac's, there's a big photo of me in the skate-thru). When I took part in Singapore Idol because I loved to sing, I wanted to win as I got further.
I realised that I don't have a passion in my life. In the past I used to be passionate about God, but I kinda got distracted along the way. I don't want to just live my life aimlessly and just leave this world. I want to leave a legacy behind.
I encourage all of you to have a passion. And when you have a dream, dare to reach for it. Don't ever let circumstances or people tell you that you cannot make it. Most importantly, have a passion that will last, not just something that will disappear together with you when you leave this world.
For me, my Idol journey is over, but life goes on. I may not be a celebrity for life, and will eventually get forgotten. Even big movie stars and pop stars get forgotten. Initially, I joined Singapore Idol because I wanted to make a difference. I hope that I have inspired some of you, and made a difference in your lives.
Well here it is. My last blog entry. I don't know whether you guys will get to see anymore of me. But hopefully, somewhere, deep down in your hearts, you will remember the pink shirt guy, the ex-beng, the law student,David Yeo.
Dare to dream.
Kinda touched by what he wrote. Feel sad for him too. He can sing. But his eager-ness to suceed overtake him. Hm... Just hope for the best for him ba...
