Hi there. Well, I'm not gonna blog about how fantastic elastic the SEA concert was. Bet many people went and enjoyed themselves so much. All I can say was our boys were the real shining stars of the whole event. Outshining other stars, the proof? The screams.
I've some fancams (Xiaogui, JJ Lin, Yoga Lin, SHINee) so please check out my facebook or twitter. Of course I'm a die-hard Shawol, I wasn't really interested in other performances. The main reason that I went to this time's SEA was (you can guess?) SHINEE. But overall it was good! I'd go again next year (if they have SHINee again keke)
Regretted not going to the showcase. A lot of reasons stopped me from going though it was too tempting. Aigoo it was really nice... But oh well, too late for regrets. I'll just tell myself that I'm so so so going to their concert if they had one here. EVEN IF IT'S 300 BUCKS. Damnz SHINee I love you so much. I've already missed out the first fansign and the showcase...
11 March 2010 We missed their arrival flight and I heard that they came only on 13 March, in the afternoon, taking SQ (which is very surprising). Then they went straight for rehearsal. We actually went on 11 cause we thought they would arrive on this day. Many other Shawols were guessing ther date and went on different days cause the official media didn't release their flight info. Oh well, I guess they didn't want to let us know.
12 March 2010 We waited one whole day at the rehearsal area. Heard different stars rehearsing but there was no SHINee. There were people queuing for the moshpit standing when we reached. Shawols. Hahaha. We waited and waited for SHINee but they didn't turn up.
13 March 2010 There were quite a lot of people in the queue already. Some, as usual, camped overnight. Lesley asked us to queue for her at the moshpit since we were there and she haven't reached. Later she treated me, Joyce Lee and Yuding to bubble tea. Hehehe. Also met Shuhui and her friend there. She was queuing for her friend. Waited in the hot sun... And it rained a few times. The passing showers were spoiling our moods.
(I'll just go straight to the point on SHINee)
Later around 3pm plus, SHINee came out and everyone who were there immediately rushed to the barricades. So many screams!!! I was so pissed cause we couldn't hear clearly. But I think I was the only one there who took fancams. The rest were just screaming and screaming -.- Really annoying. I was getting really really irritated that I said STFU loudly. But I guessed they ignored me.
It was a pity we could only stand outside and hear but couldn't watch from inside. Anyway my vid camera was pro enough to be able to take fancams and zoom in. I won't spoil for you all, go watch it yourselves.
Met Anqi there and collected the SHINee merchandises from her (OMG LOVE YOU!). I was supposed to fetch her at City Hall mrt cause she didn't know how to go. I feel so bad for ignoring her calls and smses. But unluckily at that time SHINee was rehearsing so I totally forgot about her! But nvm, she forgave me cause I promised I will take nice Yoga Lin fancams for her. (and I did)
Around 5pm plus, we were the first few to enter the floating platform! ^^ Found our seats and we were damn excited~~ Concert started around 6pm plus.
14 March 2010 Showcase day. Met Ziyi and Joyce Tan though we weren't going for it. We decided to go to carpark and wait for them to arrive. Yeah, SHINee was late and they got out of the van, without looking at us. They were already late, couldn't blame them.
Then we waited for the showcase to be over and waited~ This time they looked at us. Jonghyun looked tired and moody (but it's okay I understand why, darling) and he entered the van without looking at us. Taemin was shocked by the screams and he pressed his ears. I'M GUESSING THEY HATE SCREAMS, SO DO I. HIGH 5 TAEMIN! *piak* ^_^
Okay next was Onew, he smiled and just before he entered, he stuck his hand out and waved! LOL cutie. Then was Minho was just being his usual cool self. Then was Key! This guy is known for his uber lots of fanservice in SHINee. Keke he was smiling and waving~~~
Then later we went to Mandrin Oriental and split up. Joyce T, Lesley, Jowell and Yuzhu were waiting to hop onto a taxi to chase them. Me, Denise and Saihah was waiting for them to come out so we can call them and they can know where SHINee's going next. We saw them leaving from the front entrance. We weren't at the barricades but on the spiral stairs. Could see everything that was happening below. It was quite pointless to wait there cause the security will 'chase' you away. And many other Shawols were waiting at the back exit, they didn't know if it was from the front or back. So we just waited at the front and watched from the stairs afar.
They came out at around 8pm + and we called the rest immdiately. They eventaully stalked them to Clarke Quay's Jumbo Seafood Restuarant. SHINee was having their dinner there before heading to airport for departure.
They left around 10pm +. Their flight was again SQ at 11.50pm. First time I heard Jonghyun talking in real life. I feel so lucky. He spoke so loudly to Onew. Joyce T and Denise even said they saw Minho burping. LOL. This was another first time that I was so close to them, like less than 1m away. But the sad thing is they didn't look at any fangirls at all. Prolly Manager told them not to. I was trying to pass presents to them. So I was thinking I should pass to Key since he gives the most fanservice. Before anyone started screaming, I called "KEY!" but he didn't respond. I should have called Kibum instead since Lesley told me to and she knows him inside out.
We hired a maxi cab last minute to stalk them to airport. Our maxi uncle was damn pro!! His van was always next to SHINee's so we were damn lucky. 2-3 of them were using handphones. Touchscreen ones. Jjong most prolly. He has an Omnia 2 (I'm guessing) and prolly Minho or Key.
I pity the SHINee maxi cab driver. So many maxis stalking! It was like racing. There was once he chiong-ed through though it was red light! SO DAMN DANGEROUS. But the rest of maxis just rushed too! Thankfully the road had not many cars at that time.
And our epic moment was when our van was beside SHINee's and the maxi uncle opened the door ALL OF A SUDDEN WITHOUT WARNING! Then we all got a shock! We asked Uncle why he do that for and guess what he reply... "LIKE THAT THEN FUN. NOT FUN MEH?" Omg we nearly died from heart attack!! Joyce T was sitting in front of the door and she was totally shocked that she fell from her seat after the door opened! I don't know if any of the SHINee members saw this. SO EPIC LA.
We only came to know that our image wass totally ruined when we realised the windows were not tinted glass!!! GG. That means they could see Lesley's "Bbangkku Ddongkku" for Key and my "Happy Birthday" card to Jjong darling. OMFG. Not forgetting our shocked & unglam faces, squinting eyes, craziness and everything... Like more than half the time our van was next to theirs. IT'S GAME OVER FOR US.
P.S. I split this post into two. Too long! Hahaha.
