Lee Young Ae arrived at Singapore this afternoon at about 2.15pm. We(the fans) only saw her at abt 2.30pm to 2.45pm. It was impossible to get her autograph and her pictures. Her bouncers.. Gosh, so tall and big, kept on blocking our views and our way. Of cos, there are barricades around where she was walking and all. I now then realise, those reports on crazy fans... ALL CRAP! Fans are not the crazy ones, those Reporters are. When they saw her, woah.. they all crowd around her and start shooting from above their heads like if they don't click their shutters for a few times they will die like that.

And then while we were waiting, we got our pictures taken by those photographers for magazines and newspapers and all.. were so confused, cos too many. LG also sponsored us with banners and posters pasted on styrofoam boards. Around the barricades of the airport, we were all crowded around, with book and pen in one hand, an a cam in the other. Then some also held out the posters and banners. When we saw her, we shouted in Unison," Ee Young Ae Shi, Welcome To Singapore. Sa-rang Hey-Yo!" That means "Miss Lee Young Ae, Welcome to Singapore, We Love You!" She looked so slim and so beautiful in person, better looking that on tv, newspaper and magazines. Poised and elegant, and she's just like the girl-next-door, friendly and keep smiling and waving at the people who came to see her at the airport. She smiled and waved at us, cos we were all wearing the tee-shirt, so she knew it was her fan club fans lor. :D

And then I got interviewed by the reporter from NEWPAPER Herself! Cos she was looking for Violet(our organizer) but she went inside the restricted area to rpesent the 1st bouquet of flowers to Miss Young Ae personally. So the reporter interviewed Amy, i think is the co-organizer.I just stood there with Amy so the reporter also interviewed me as well, and also another one. :D:D:D:D SOOO cool! She asked for our name, age, occupation and our contact number. I was so happy, first time gana interviewed, and its' on my first time to the airport to pick up a STAR!!! ^.^ ^.^ ^.^ :D:D:D

The we had to rush from Termina 2 Arrival Hall Belt 31 and walk fast fast back to the bus. We had to rush to Mellenia Walk straight after that. Our fan club is sorta official and sorta unofficial de. But we had the support of LG Themselves!!! They specially reserved the best spot for us fan club, we have the clear view of the mini stage.

I got selected in a lucky draw to present a bouquet of flowers to Lee Young Ae!!! So happy on the bus. When the time got nearer and nearer, my heart was beating so damn fast. I hugged my bag on the bus during the journey to the Walk, keep thinking how to present the flowers and the presents to her and then plus to let her sign my sis' book. I felt so guilty on the bus. Cos I got lucky to be drawn lots to present flowers to Lee Young Ae, and again my name is drawn for 1 of the 2 posters of Lee Young Ae... So it's my sis' idol yet I get all the limelight, by hook or by crook I HAVE to get Lee Young Ae's Signature for her. So throughout the journey I was thinking how to do so.

At the Mellenia Walk, we got the best spot like I said, and we were all wearing our fan club shirt(I wore my sis), and i stood right in front. Hate her bodyguards and those other ppl inside the barricades, keep blocking our views. And u know, i short mah, so my hadns gotta stretched up and shoot. Then my dad's cam... SOOOOO Slow!!! But I managed to took quite a numbre of pictures, a few with her full face(front views, side views), and a afew with ppl's head blocking lah. I din get the chance to present the flowers... Wahhh :'(:'(:'(:'(:( So sad... So we ended up putting the flowers into a big bag, on top of the presents we individually gave Young Ae and handed the whole bag to Joyce, the LG Manager so she could pass the bag to Young Ae's manager or something. At least she got the present from my sis and I.. Lollipops! Cos Young Ae loves Lollis!!! We had 20 sticks inside the box, with a Message from my sister and our mom wrapped for us, and then we topped it off with a small card and a small ribbon. :) Aww.. it was the biggest present out of the rest.. Hehe

Then when Young Ae came down the stage to walk the red carpet to her car or something, I quickly ran from the place where I'm standing to the almost end of the red carpet. I Forgot to get Young Ae's autograph for my sis! So i quickly ran and squeeze.. literally squeeze my way to the side of the barricade and called out her name in korean "Young-Ae Shi" (means Miss Young Ae). She walked passed my book but then when i called out again she turned back and signed on my sis' book, USING MY PEN! That pen was a gift from my 3rd Aunt, it's a Parker Pen. And then she used my pen to signed a few more books beside my sis' . I reached out to get my pen back from her(cos she was walking away and i was standing there rooted on the ground) and she handed it to me, i touched her fingers!!!!! OMG!!! I was so happy. I can't possibly describe how i felt. Though i missed a chance to present her personally with teh flowers we prepared, at least she used my pen and i touched her fingers, and accomplished my mission(to get her autograph for my sis).. It was all worthwhile! The long hours of waiting, the long hours of standing, the squeezing our way through, the stretching out our hands for pics and autographs... ALL R WORTH THE WHILE!

After the Mellenia Walk event, we headed to Long John Silver for a gathering, to see whether who wanna go to the airport ml to send her off. We tried the food court first, but the tables cant be joined. Ad we had like abt 20 or more fans, so Long John Silver was our choice, cos quite empty. Turns out that almost everyone wanna go back to the airport tml again to see her off. By right we should, cos what fan club would we be if we just pick her up so glamourously but let her leave SG in such a pathetic state? We Would NV Allow THAT! Hehe.. :p I also managed to get a poster on styrofoam board for my sister. @ Long John Silver, Violet was asking who wanted the poster, then she wrote down the names. Then told us if nt enough to spare, have to draw lots again to be fair. I was praying non stop that it would b enough. IT WAS ENOUGH!!! Woop!

Then Young Ae's fans nt only include Singaporeans, but also 4 Hong Kong-ers, one Thailand, and one Malaysian. The Hog Kong fans came all teh way down specially from Hong Kong to support Young Ae herself!!! Can you believe it? And 1 Hong Kong fan, she took the flight to singapore the same day as Ms Young Ae, so she could get to b inside the restricted area to see Young Ae first-hand! The Thailand fan got some magnets of Young Ae's pic on them, i picked one specially for my sis, it was beautiful! The Thailand fan was a journalist back at Thailand and she got interview the Da Chang Jin inside de "Min Da Ren" in person before. Young Ae looked the best out of all(among the pics on magnets lah). My sister cried when she saw the magnet. The tears were welling up in her eyes. I felt so less-guilty. At least I made her happy. :) She kept saying "Bu4 yao4 ci4 zi1 wo3" when i describe what we did at the airport and the Walk.At least the magnet and the signatures plus the pics were enough to satisfy her. Phew! Cos i got to sue the pen that Young Ae touched, i got to see her in person and i got to take her pics. She turned and smiled and waved at us(all of the fan club fans, esp those standing in front at the walk, including me).

Ths trip is the best I had in my whole life! I met some Hong Kong-ers, and more frenz. Took some pics of the other fans for my sister, so she knew who she's talking to online the Lee Young Ae's official website. If ur all interested, you can go to www.leeyoungae.net and join in. :) We all welcome u in open arms. I can't possible say how elated i am and how nervous I am thoughout this whole trip from Wisma Atria to the Airport and to the Mellenia Walk.. WOW! That's all I can use to describe this sensation. I see if my dad knows how to put pics on pc, I'll post some online to share wih you guys, or you can simply join the club at the website i mentioned, there r some photos already posted on it.
