Fahrenheit aka fei lun hai's autograph session at IMM on 28jan

Spent 8hours just to get their autograph & 4 handshakes
Many people will say we're crazy... hmm... but who cares? I guess i'm crazy too, feifei (their pet name) dont sing that well, dancing is so CMI, yet i love them~~ haha it's unbelievable i guess. Like them just for their looks... I know i sound shallow, but it's the truth. ^^

I reached there at 2pm... cindy & i thought we were early as the session starts at 6pm. We travelled from east to west just for this. Am totally unfamiliar with IMM as i go there like only once in a year? haha since that place is so outta the way for me.

What i dont like about this session was that the organisers totally shucks! There were too few barricades set up around the queue area, packing so many fans into the barricades, with everyone jostling to be at the front of the barricade. Things werent looking good, if they were to open the 'flood gates', a stampede will result as we were all packed like sardines. All i could see was a sea of black heads (stationary) that is as the security guards refused to let more fans into the autograph signing area. cant they just let us in earlier to take photos? The hordes of fans were actually blocking the passages & walkways of the shopping mall. Tempers flared as the queue was not moving even after more than 1 hour after the autograph session started. i think those at the back were queuing in the carpark & could not even hear them sing songs earlier on. That's so unfair!

The guards even persuaded us to leave the queue as we were stuck behind the 3rd barricade set up to 'cage' poor fans. Somehow it looked like a cramped chicken coop... Luckily i arent short, if not i would have problems breathing fresh air. Especially after hours of queuing, all the fans were getting hot & sweaty.. *smells* haha
But hey i refuse to leave until the last minute feifei leaves the stage. I came so early & travelled so far, i arent going home empty-handed without a 'fight'. So when someone spotted a small opening at the back of the 2nd barricade, some quick-witted fans made a mad dash into the area. No need to guess, i was one of them. Being able to sprint really helps man! But my dear fren didnt manage to dash in & was a distance away from that small opening that was blocked by a security guard shortly after i barged in. Sighes. Later she gave up queuing & went to take photos instead. What a pity!
Now that i was alone... and a little desperate as time was running out, i jostled for space within the 2nd barricade & in no time... i was in the 1st barricade! AMAZING! haha.. I couldnt be more surprised at my jostling skills & sheer luck. Anyway, being gentle & good-mannered doesnt help when it comes to crowded situations, with inconsiderate sh***y people cutting queues... Poor cindy! She's always the kind & gentle girl... felt bad when i sort of left without pulling her along. (but she was more than 1 arm length away from me, unless i have Luffy's flexible arms? haha..)
The emcee then announced that each fan can only get 1 cd autographed, cant talk to feifei or give presents. Ooh so sad.
Took many photos with cindy's camera, but it's kinda laggy, when the camera finally reacted to my 'click', some stupid fan would have blocked the view of my idols' faces. Brr... in the end, didnt manage to shoot my favourite Arron's picture as too many fans stood in front of him & for TOO LONG! Okie i know he's good-looking that's why.
Was so busy seeking great shots of them close-up in front of the stage that i didnt realise it was almost my turn to go onstage. Got to dig out my album from my bag, take out the lyrics booklet, peel of the autograph session entry pass from the cover & keep cindy's cam as photography isnt allowed onstage... Before long, i was standing in front of Wu Chun, the arguably best-looking of the quartet. His handshake's surprisingly solid & warm.. hmm even after more than 3hours of shaking hands with fans. If it were me, my hand would have been shaking or rather trembling by then lol. Next up's Arron... felt nothing... hmm didnt even look up when signing & i was busy staring at him to say anything to him. The 3rd one, da dong aka jiro. I told myself that i needed to say something... before i get off the stage. So i babbled a very cliche thing '要加油哦!' haha jiro heard it, looked up & smiled at me. I could see that he tried hard to mask his weariness, but at least he bothered to react! As for the last one Calvin aka the most unpopular guy of the group didnt react to my words. Sigh but who cares about him when i have jiro's attention? Hahaha..
I'm getting huachi...
It was 950pm & the autograph session ended with a bang at 1010pm when they performed the final song '超喜欢你'. It was a real high song & we watched it on level 3 as levels 1 & 2 were packed. I'll probably upload some pictures here when Cindy sends me the photos.
Wu Chun tried to dance then, but he looked totally weird & unnatural... I think he should just stick to being the Cool man Chun.

Was the lucky lucky last person to squeeze up the last shuttle bus that leaves IMM at 1030pm, if not we have to walk to the mrt station neh. We would be totally lost in the darkness.Smacked my arm against the windscreen & hung onto my dear life on a non-existent bar... I survived!

Reached home at around 12 midnight~~
A little hyper & didnt sleep until almost 2am, it's amazing that i didnt fall asleep in school today.
