Susan Boyle - the latest Star (2)

The last video clip was just a introductory video about Susan Boyle, the latest star in town! If you do not know her, she's a 47-year-old, never-been-kissed Scottish woman who were given this expression by an audience;


but got this from Simon Cowell when she sings in Britain's Got Talent;


and also an invitation to sing and record a duet with Elaine Paige, her idol.

"Ever since Susan's appearance on Britain's Got Talent my Radio 2 inbox has been flooded with emails," Paige wrote on her website, "It seems her performance has captured the hearts of everyone who saw it, me included ... it looks like I have competition! Perhaps we should record a duet?" [Guardian]


Here's the full version, for those of you who wants to know more about her!!

Susan Boyle - the latest Star



If you haven't seen this, you're really outdated!
Amidst all the news about heroes who sacrificed themselves to save the people, (Philips and Sullenberger etc.), this 47-year-old woman, who has never been kissed and had been laughed at most of her life, is now the latest star.

I like the "dance" she performed at the beginning of her singing.
I get goosebumps everytime I watched the video!

And my finance professor even showed this to us in class!
what does finance have to do with britain's got talent??

Prof's lesson: If she can do it, I'm sure you all can achieve WHATEVER your dreams are once you graduate;

Dave's lesson: If she can do it, I'm sure I could be on that stage one day! (STOP DREAMING)

April snow

Not this...


But this


It just snowed today
I'm thinking that this would be the last batch of snow before spring really comes
To snow, I'm still the kid who would be excited for snow days
mainly because I come from a tropical country where only man made snow exists
I like go out to the snow and play
mainly because I'm amazed by the snow which feels magical to me
I prefer snowing days to rainy days
just because I still could go out, something not possible when it is raining

I just love snow!
You could call me Snowy.
