7th April 2009
David's mini-concert + CD Signing at Iluma Shopping Mall!Unlike most of the other DASG members who were there since the mall opened at 10am in the morning, Lydia & I reached at like 3.30pm and gosh, the line was long. We were sooo worried that we wouldn't be able to see the freakin' stage!
But Sheryl. I loveee her. She let us go right in front, with the other DASG members. Oh and did I mention that I saw some Springfielders there? Yeah, that was weird. I saw one of my guy seniors. Shikin's classmate, gosh. I saw a teacher! A malay teacher, but idk the name ): Anyways, so around 5pm, they finally let us in the mall. 4 by 4, to check if we have the Singapore version of the album.
And gosh, I was
literally right in front of the stage, in the
middle. Daniel was beside me, Lydia was a few people away from me, but it was all good. I was actually behind Daniel but since he's like 1.90+cm tall, he let me move in front haha. So we sat and waited for 7pm. They were playing David's album during the wait and whenever the song changes, people would scream their heads off. The host, I think it's a radio DJ, laughed and shooked her head whenever that happens hehehe. People were singing along like crazy too. Gosh. Channel News Asia was there. The mall was packed man.
The first floor was crazyyyy full. Until outside the mall. 2nd-4th floor were packed! I definitely didn't expect that much people to come! But like people say, it's David freakin' Archuleta.
Weiyan, Kitty, Sal, Sheryl, Larissa, Yasmin, Nora went for the meet & greet at around 6.30. Lucky them! Anyways, He went in through the back door of the mall, and people who were near that door keeps screaming whenever the door opens when it's not even him! -_-'' It was literally like "The Boy Who Cried Wolf" It happened like 4 times! And when he finally came, my first thought was
OH MY GOD. Sal was tearing.
He looks really... white. Like white white, American white. He was
practically glowing, his eyes were shining, he was so damn happy. His face is flawlesssss. Haha.
He looks so much hotter in person, even if that were possible. His outfit was to die for mannn. He was wearing a tieeeee.
91.3FM DJs were there and they said that whenever we see them, shout 913 ROCKS! So we did haha and they gave us a thumbs-up. Loud screams everywhereee (I was one of them hehe)! When he went up the stage, he didn't say anything, he started singing
"Touch My Hand". Oh my god, he sounds exactly like the album.
Even the freakin' runs and high notes, and if you listen to his songs, you know how high the high notes are. During one of the lines, he was staring right at Rachel and pointing at her! I was dying for her omg. He was jumping around the stage gosh. Jeff had this urge to jump around too hahaa. After TMH and a few words to the fans, he sang
"A Little Too Not Over You". Screams were deafening! Cause the song's well-known here. Goshh.
That super high note. -dies- Whenever that line "I'm just a little too not over you..." is sang, he would look and point at one person gahh but not me ): Lol.
I was balancing the video cam on my left hand and the camera on my right hand haha. After ALTNOY, he went to the piano which was directly in front of me omg, and sang that song...
"A Thousand Miles" Omg he changed up the song to his version. Well, every song really. He was like "If you guys know the song, then sing along!" He's
adorable. Sigh.
Me: Hi, David!
David: Oh, hey! *looks up at me & grins, while I melt inside*
-He signs my album-
Me: Good luck with everything!
David: *looks up at me & grins again omg* Aww, thanks!
I will
never forget that short exchange.
Ever.
So the moment I went outside (we were supposed to, after the signing), Mai came to me and we screamed together! Lol. Whenever someone exits the mall, that person and some other people would scream haha! Okay so we waited for other DASG people to come out. Lydia was home by then. We spoke to
Boy Thunder (or in Sal's words - Thunder Boy lol)
from 913 for a while before Sal found out that his van was right at the back exit. So we walked there, waited for an hour or so cause he was still signing. Everyone signed the 2metre DASG banner. We planned to give it to him the next day.
Gosh. Some fans are so obssesive! Since it was cold, the car windows were foggy so some fans (yes, those shameless ones) left their
phone numbers and emails on the van. I mean, there is a fine line between having respect for an artiste and just plain nuts and obssesive. Man, we were looking at them like ugh, you don't deserve to be here kind of look. Larissa was shaking her head. Hey, at least we know when it's too much. We found out that that was a decoy. He actually exited by the side door and there was another van there.... after some people found out, they ran after the van! Hahaha! We were just laughing our heads off. Then these group of girls, who were already in cab,
followed the van! One of them gave us the
middle finger, sheesh.
We realised it was really over after that. But not for some... like me... since we were
meeting him the next day. I headed back home by MRT with Daniel and Mai after that. Gosh. I'll never forget that day.
I thought nothing could beat that day... until today (April 8th) happened.Labels: archuleta, best, concert, crazy, david, day, iluma
