[Personal] Music and photo updates

First week of school has just passed and how's everyone feeling and coping? :)

I'm pleased to see my freshies enjoying themselves, people-watching at the deck, buying their textbooks from the Co-op and partying their nights away as though university is so chillax. 

Of course, mugging will only commence from the 2nd/3rd week onwards. ;)

As for myself, school is great of course, since I'm only required to head down to school for 2 days per week for my last 2 modules in NUS. I even traveled all the way back to school on the first day of school just to meet the freshies and the bf for a casual lunch. All the freshies seemed energized yet anxious about tutorial balloting deadlines. Part and parcel of the beginning of the university life~ 

I'm just cherishing the semester to have no regrets of not spending enough time as a student before I graduate. I'm also joining NUS D'hoppers to learn some basic dance techniques and to exercise every week! :p Who's interested to join with me!? :)

It has been 1 month since I released my last cover: California King Bed which was specially requested by and dedicated to Shenn. Apologies for the hiatus. If you've realised, I've been majorly distracted with brunches, adverts and reviews. It looks as though I'm not doing anything about my youtube channel BUT I'm still dedicated to improving with my personal youtube project ok! Haha. ;)

Here's my most recent (posted 1 month ago) youtube song cover if you've missed it. :)

Music updates

In fact, this upcoming cover is gonna be very different from my usual filming and recording style. 

It is a very classic Khalil Fong (方大同) song cover which I promised to release with my Genting blog posts (Food post / Activities post) but lacked the time to develop it in time. Honestly, I was quite flustered with publishing the Genting posts because the other bloggers were so damn efficient on their sides and I had to caption and review 2 extremely long-ass entries. So, sorry guys for giving over-confident false alarms! :p 

Basically, I'm gonna try filming my FIRST video cover OUTDOORS this time round. Let's hope I can successfully recce for a beautiful venue to do the filming and some photoshoot this weekend. I need some help here! Please recommend me some locations where I can film my video cover! They have to be quiet, windy and not popular/crowded places, preferably somewhere accessible and doesn't have very prominent Singapore landmarks. I don't want my video cover to turn out like an NDP music video. :p 

I will appreciate it veeerrrrryyyy much if you can give me your suggestions by commenting or contacting me personally!  :):)

On top of that, I've also added some harmonizing to this song to value-add to its audio effect. It didn't take me a great deal of effort to learn it, but it's not easy to record the harmo in sync with the lead melody. So much work to do in learning all the technical stuff!! I'll master them all!! *determined*

I'm also rejoicing over another great news which is that I've found a few clothes and accessories blogshop sponsors for my upcoming video covers! I am so extremely blessed and excited about these pending collaborations. It also means, NO MORE OLD UGLY CLOTHES from my bursting aged wardrobe. Indeed, sincerity, passion and determination do pay off! :) 

The first blogshop sponsor will be featured in the next video cover and you guys will be able to get special discounts if you want to purchase any item from the blogshop by simply quoting my name "ZiweiSandy". More details will be provided in the near future. :):) Psst, don't say I never share perks with my friends/readers. <3 

Luckiest woman is me, because I have all my supportive friends, seniors, juniors, listeners and readers who will be there for me when I need advice, help, comments and feedback to help me improve as a person and a singer-blogger. xoxo

If you have friends who own blogshops and would like to be featured in my upcoming video covers, as well as my blog, feel free to contact me at ziweisandy@gmail.com. I have a decent amount of viewership to offer. :)

Not to forget, I am concurrently working on my next duet cover with Marcus and it's going to be filmed at an outdoor venue too. I'm so in love with this song that I took on Marcus' challenge to try it out despite its difficulty! So far so good. Do give me some time. I hope I will not disappoint you guys. :)

Brunch-hunting will continue for me even though I'm in dire need to shed some weight. I've the honour to date some of my pretty girlfriends out. We're in the midst of planning right now. Excited~

Lastly, if you guys haven't, please be generous with your precious "like" on the Facebook update page below as I'm going to be updating most of my music and blog progression there. :)

Back-to-basics satisfaction

Hi.

This is gonna be a brainless post as it's just photo updates as most of which I didn't post on facebook.

I'm just really grateful, looking back at the past week on what I've been doing and the people who spent their time with me. :) 

I found some back-to-basics happiness in the simplicity of the bits and pieces in my life. :D

Here you go.

Dinner at the prata shop nearby Leonard's condo. 

Maggie goreng is a lil too salty as compared to that selling at Ameen.

BUT their plaster pratas taste like heaven. ZOMG.

You definitely have to top it up with a glass of iced milo. Epic. Shiok.

HI BABY BUNNY! 

Free toy that Leo got from the florist when he purchased the flowers for me at my performance.

Super soft. :3

 SMELL?

The epic 2-storey-tall cactus seen at some ulu shophouses along West Coast Road.

Camwhore time before mugging at Fat Cow! :D

Cookie Monster Milkshake on the day following Emerge. Sinned!

This is Pizi, my 2-year-old baby hamster. 

Her husbands and children have passed on due to different reasons

and I'm really cherishing her madly as I've heard that the average life span of a hamster is 2 years. 

Her body condition has been weak lately due to old age. 

I still love her much! <3

Sinner, I am.

Chewy junior. Yumz.

Then, I managed to find some time to spend with Jun.

Brought him out to JP to mug since it's his holiday week. 

Looks like he's coping well with his Secondary 1 life. :)

Green tea frappe. Our favourite.

Much resemblance? :)

Aww. No more baby brother. <3

AND very obviously, no more baby sister. 

But she's the closest lil girl to me ever. <3

Pretty leggy girlfriend, Qianhua.

The nice one to accompany to SimLim Square to buy my G12. <3

Thanks for braving through the battles in our Psychology modules thus far. :')

At school canteen, the deck again.

Super cute T1 freshies! :D :D

Shiya and Fangying. Haha. More glam shots next time. 

Bee, why do you look so proud of your food? Kekeke.

2 plaster pratas at Engine canteen for dinner.

Not as awesome as those at the prata shop nearby Leo's house though.

Fangying's meaningful purse. 

T1 arts queen's hard-earned money inside. 

She eats too much btw. Still can be so slim!? Not fair.

Thank you bee for accompany me to collect my 200$ vouchers i won from cozycot!

Latest photos in the cam:

Bought a Ginvera spot corrector and 

finally the Loreal YouthCode Pre-essence. 

Not too sure about its effects. Will see! ;)

Did a product review: READ!

I've been tweeting excessively these few days to get back in touch with those who deserve more care and love. I'm an overly emotional person anyway, might as well share some with my awesome friends especially when these emotions are highly positive at the moment. :)

Intensive gym session with best bro for life Deekhade today. Felt lightheaded after 4x2 100m sprints.
2 months of dieting without exercising at all and he wanted me to do sprints immediately upon my return to my gym regime.

To the little poodle, hey I got to know at least 10 other people who think you're childish too. Time to reflect dear! :D (cyberbully much but born this way *shrug*)

In other news, I got called up by a music company and was asked to head down for an interview this coming Monday. Excited. 2 songs to prepare, which should I choose?!

BOUGHT FLIGHT TICKETS AND HOTEL STAY FOR BANGKOK THIS COMING MAY TOO! :D:D

Back to doing research now! :D

Hearts,
Ziwei

P/s: HAPPY BIRTHDAY CALVIN CHIA! :D

What more do I need?

I'm super blessed to be part of T1, especially under Wenjie's lead in Topsy. :)
I really really appreciate the companion of all my friends who are here for me tonight.
Sorry, don't have time to blog properly, but thanks to you know who you are. <3

For more info on incident, read the tweets.

Hearts,
Ziwei

P/s: GREAT NEWS ALL, i unfollowed one person on twitter today and saw her true colours following that. No regrets. ;D

P/p/s: Btw, I'm NOT the only one who think this way.
