Singapore, host of the first YOG

HAPPY BIRTHDAY to Dasmond Koh and Daren Tan

First we had Khoo Swee Cheow being the first Singaporean to conquer Mount Everest in 2000, and break more records in the following years. Then we had Hady Mirza being crowned the very first Asian Idol last year. Less than 2 weeks ago, we had Congrats to Singapore for winning the bid to host the first ever Youth Olympic Games!! :-D

The Games will be held in Singapore, according to a decision by IOC. This decision was announced just last night, after mail voting by 105 IOC members. This event is to be celebrated in the tradition of the Summer Olympic Games from August 14 to August 26, 2010, in Singapore.

When I was having dinner with my mum at a food center last night, I saw the news on TV... I was so delighted, I raised my fist and went, "YESSS!!! I knew it, we won!!!" and started walking around Chris Jericho, wahaha!! :-p

Song in dedication to Daren (birthday boy!!) and his fans (and of course to everyone) is the original version of his first single "Bu Xu Li Yu" from his debut album titled "Regardless" :-)

BUILT TO LAST- Melee

I've looked for love in stranger places
But never found someone like you.
Someone whose smile makes me feel
I've been holding back,
And now there's nothing I can't do

'Cause this is real, and this is good
It warms the inside just like it should
But most of all, most of all it's built to last
(It's built to last) It's built to last

All of our friends saw from the start
So why didn't we believe it too?
Whoa yeah, now look where you are
You're in my heart now
And there's no escaping it for you

'Cause this is real, and this is good
It warms the inside just like it should
but most of all, most of all, it's built to last...

Walking on the hills that night with those fireworks and candlelight
You and I were made to get love right

'Cause this is real, and this is good
It warms the inside just like it should
but most of all, most of all, it's built to last

'Cause you are the sun in my universe
Considered the best when we've felt the worst
and most of all, most of all
Most of all, most of all
Most of all, most of all, it's built to last.
