Objectively speaking, I thought their second performance - the first time in the studio - was certainly not their best, but I've heard them do much better and I'm sure they're capable of going far in this competition. (And I'm not just saying that because because the lead singer is my cousin, I'm very particular about musicality.) The third performance was much better, but the drums were still overpowering the lead vocals and diction was a bit garbled. And the bass... haha, there was something strange going on there.
But anyway, good luck guys... go sing your hearts out. =)

Anyway, he was speaking at a digital photography seminar yesterday with Eric Cheng. I got to see some of their work, and I also got to see Stephen Wong and Takako Uno, two pretty well-known photographers. Their book "An Ocean Odyssey" has got a really surreal and poetic cover, so I went looking for their work and found this image:
And that is the sad reality of what happens to sharks for that bowl of sharks' fin soup you eat at weddings. Some fishing communities will use every single part of the shark, but most just cut off the fins and throw the poor creature back into the water to drown. All that for a bowl of soup that really tastes more of the sea cucumber and crab broth than the sharks' fin.

Why is it that when I see videos of Japanese people on trains reading the newspaper or generally squeezing around in their very packed shinkansens, I never see this problem? Ok, so they've got other problems like molesters, but there are molesters on Singapore trains too. Maybe it's just the grass looking greener on the other side... or as a certain someone in my office would say, "Back in Japan, things were better." XDDDDDD
