IOC Session @ Singapore!!!

Today, the IOC is holding their meeting at Raffles Convention Center to choose the host city for 2012 Olympics. So the 5 bidding Cites, Paris, London, Moscow, Madrid and New York all sent out a whole A list of star coming down to Singapore to pull votes for their cities!!!

So as you all know me and weiming didn't work during this period, and we are super boliao, so we went down to town yesterday, hoping to see these stars.

Weiming seems to reach there super early, like 10+ or 11 he was there liao. then he took a few picture, the first one is the car of the Spanish Queen, the one with plate S1. He actually managed to take picture of her as well, but then he cock up with his own camera, instead of taking a picture, he took the video, so cannot be posted here la!



After that he managed to take a shot of Jacques Rogge, the IOC president, not bad hor... Just that it's the back view. HAHA




All these happened before i arrived. Then i reached at around 1+pm, thinking that i could see a lot of stars, especially the one that i really wanna see, Mr Raul Blanco Gonzalez... HAHA damn excited.

So we started wondering around. but for very long we didnt manage to see anyone. Just saw some old ang moh aunties and uncles whoi think are the IOC members, justt hat i really dunno who they are. Too tired, at around 2 we went to have our lunch. we wanted to ask reporters whether they knew where Raul will be, but we too humji to ask.

After lunch, we wondered around at Raffles Hotel, and the time is already 1525. we've wasted 2 hours of not seeing anyone. I was already damn depressed and thought of going home and sleep. Then we gave it one last shot to go to the main entracne of Raffles Hotel take a look. Then we saw a lot of Ang Moh reporters there waiting. Red Carpet on the floor, all the hotel staff lining up to wait for someone, then this car arrived!!!!






Wow, a 7 series BMW with plate number 1, no alphabet no nothing!!! this car look cool right??

Who is inside???

This old stepped out!! Imagine it with the tune of The Final Countdown.






I squeezed under the armpit of the above reporter to take this photo

Yes, for those who know, This is Mr Jacques Chirac, the french President, I bet he's damn good at frenching. ah,. I'm lame. HAHAHA. IMPRESSIVE PHOTO right??? I took weiming's camera and squeezed in between all the fat fat and big size ang moh reporters to snap this photo out man!!!!! HAHA

By the way both of us were damn out of place man1! everyone ther were wearing suits dressed up veyr formal, then i was in 3/4s and tshirts and sandals!! but I heck la, just go and take photo!!! The BahBU SingH in the photo tried to chase me away, but FUCK HIM MAN!!! I took the Photo of Chirac, damn shiok!!! HAHAHAAHAH

By then both of us veyr tired then we rested for around 30 minutes and we went back to raffles hotel again. wah, the you know wat happeneD??? Both of us were just damn fated with CHirac man, it's just the time he was leaving Raffles Hotel. Then of course I didn't miss the chance to take a few more shots of him. Here it is!!!!








And as i was busy taking photo of Mr Chirac, weiming was standing at the side, trying to catch his attention!!! And Guess WAT HAPPENED??? MR CHIRAC SMILED AND WAVED AT WEIMING!!!! Stunned right?? Weiming received a smile from Chirac!!!!OH MAN!!!! 羡慕死了!!!

After Chirac left, we were grabbed by a reporter from Fm 93.8. She then interviewed us as we were the only local non-reporters there amnage to take the shot of Chirac!! We were famous man!!! She ask us how we feel seeing CHirac, how we know he'll be here, why we so free coming down and so on. asked us a lot of questions int he interview!! maybe you guys can tune int o fm 98.3 to listen to interview of Lo Hok Him and Yap Weiming!!! HAHAHA....

byt then time waw around 1645, we headed to the Esplanade and the IOC opening ceremony will take place there!!! HAHA. Just nice we waited at Esplanade for around 15 min, the 1st bus arrived. When every bus arrived, there'll be lion dance welcoming them. The esplanade was heavily fenced up. you cant get near the star excpet you are police or reporters!!!

However from previous experience of chasing Jolin Tsai and lin xinru, we've found a spot where we can get damn close to the stars!! Then the pple alighted formt he 1st bus, there's a guys super tall, liek around 2m like that, with long hair. Then when we saw his fae, he look very shuai!! HE's IAN THORPE!!!! MULTIPLE SWIMMING GOLD MEDALISTS in both Sydney 2000 and Athens 2004. He is very shuai!!!! However as he was the 1st guy formt he 1st bus, we haven't got the camera ready and missed that shot. ke xi....

Then a few bus of unknown people, here it comes the French Contingent.... We saw the newly crowned NBA Champioin Tony Parker( he isn't veyr tall ), standing besides him World Cup winner Laurent Blanc in sunglasses, Here's the photo!!!!



hha, good photo right. Then at this time, the camera battery was running low, so in order to save battery and flash for more shaui ges, we off the flash for these 2 old men from the London Contingent!!!! They're Mr Sven Goran Eriksson, the English National Football team Manager and Mr Bobby Charlton, need me to tell you who he is!!! Both pictures are blur, but still can see la!!!!








Anyway Bobby Charlton is really damn blur, i also cant recognise him!!! but anyway it is him la!!!

Next up, the Madrid guys are arriving!! Then I saw another very tall guy, definitely more than 205cm. Then with a look on his face, i know he's Pau Gasol, the Memphis Grizzlies player, another NBA guy. And because he's so tall, he attracted all the attention of the guy nxt to him!!! I didnt' bother to look at who he is, until he was right in front of me, less than an arm length. That guy is MR RAUL BLANCO GONZALEZ. He looked liek a fucking Indian but he's nothing to say YANDAO!!!! he was so cool!!! He smiled at me and took the escalator up. i was so excited that i forgot to take a photo of him... ARGHHH!!!!!!! FAILURE!!!!

Luckily, Old Sky gave me another chance to make up for my mistake. Raul seems to walk to the wrong place and he was coming down again, he'll definitely pass by me!!!

And yes, he did!!!! This time I am all ready!!! I called his name!! he turned and face me, smile and waved at me again!!! SO SHUAI!!!! MY HEART MELTED instantly!!!! Then i tried to talk to him!!! I thought we could become friends!! I think I am siao liao!! He tried to lean forward and tried to listen to wat i talking about. But either he dunno english or my english too lousy, he doesn't seem to understand wat i talking about and walked away. Oh shit. My heart was beating so fast that i forgot to take picture of him again!!! SHit man!!! But i manage to take one of his back view la.... Haiz.... Missed Raul twice..... The guy in blue tshirt is Raul... I think youa ll shld be able to recignise him la, though it's just the back view!!!



Then after awhile, there seems to be a lot fo reporters running around!!! It's the arrival of David Beckham... He got the movie star type of hype.... we managed to see him quite far too far to take a photo of him. but not bad la, still can see him.

Next is the NEw york contingent again... Then Instead of coming from the front, I felt there's a fat auntie walking past me from behind at a very high pace. thought it was another typical fat auntie rushing to nowhere, And it actually was the wife of Mr Suck-cock-Bill, Hillary Clinton!!!! She was fat man!!! Her ass was damn big!!!





this photo is quite dark and the side view of the lady in center is Hillary Clinton... Not very clear also, but it's her la!!!

By then only left with Marat Safin and Mhd Ali hasn't arrived yet. But we both not very interested to see them!! Maybe Ali too old and shaking too uncontrollably to come down to the ceremony and Safin is busy throwing tantrum, whacking his racket and beating up pple in his hotel.

So we retutrned hom at 1900++. anwyay it's very fulfilling day. I think this will be the year which i saw the most number of famous pple!!!!
