David Tao is searching for a girlfriend? ... take me >D

lol. at first i have to say one thing. today i was so NOT in the mood for a concert, for going out or leaving the hostel. I was actually very grumpy because of this muggy heat. For a second i thought about staying in my room, but Sata said to me *go out and enjoy yourself* So, I did. And it was a good choice. It was a really good choice.

Actually, Rosie didn't pick me up today because she was working. wasn't so bad for me, because of thatI had to go alone out. I found a cab, I had a really awesome conversation about bollywood shows and seeling their tickets for 500 singapore dollars *what means 250 euro* with the driver and laughed a lot. The singapore indoor stadium is pretty impressing. and it is next to a river. not the singapore river, but another one. and the condominiums there are impressive. awesome. I made a lot of pictures.
There was a little bit of *beach* so I made some pretty pictures with the beach, the river, all the buildings behind. I sat there at the river, listened to Kangta and messaged with alecs.
maybe it sounded kitchy, but i felt so good and I wanted to share this moment with him, even when he didn't was in my near.

And by the way ... jutta? Ich hab Fotos von einem stein gemacht. Ich hab es dir gesagt!!! :D

Anyway, at first it was kinda hard for me. I was the only caucasian there, so everone, really everyone, looked or stared at me o.O
I felt so uncomfortable and was close to tears, so I messaged alecs again and told him, what I feel. He cheered me up and was there for me ♥
So, they opened the doors at 7.30PM. I went inside *between all those pretty asian people* and there was a table with stuff. I grabbed a noticebook with david tao on the cover, because it was for free. there were posters, too, but i didn't pick one because I was to shy o.O
So, I went to my place and i had a really awesome view to the stage. god, I was so close o.O
it was forbidden to take pictures in the hall and during the show, but everyone did it. So, I did it too *blushes*
And I was a bad girl, because ... I recored some of the songs with him. At first I recorded David at the stage ... before realizing that next to me was a huge screen, rofl. So I hope, I did it right ... I guess so, because the card of Juttas digicam is full now, lol.

So, I can't say one thing about the songs he sung. I have no idea about his songs. But he sang a lot of famous songs like Another Brick in the Wall, It's easy, All you need is love ... and he owned my heart when he sang FOXY LADY of Jimi Hendrix. Do u know that I love the songs of Jimi Hendrix since I am 17?
And I have to say one thing. He is an awesome guitar player. Awesome. I sat often there with an open mouth, staring at the screen, having goosebumps, lol.
And he is a pretty guy. Not bad for his 40 years. Actually he looks like he would be 32. He told us, that all the singapore women are damn pretty and he is single, searching for the love of his life.
Sometimes he spoke in english and he was so funny, that I laughed a lot. But in the middle of the sentence he changed into chinese, everyone laughed and I didn't understand one single word, lol.
I really have to learn chinese, seriously.

He is awesome. He invited a fan to come on the stage, held her hand and sang for her *I recorded that, hehe*. At one song he had a choir of singaporean kids on the stage and they sang with him. Jesus, that was ... whoa, just whoa. Very amazing.
And his voice is love, pure love. He can sing the highest tones and it sounds so awesome. His voice reminds me a little bit of Leehom Wang. Or is Leehom Wang singing like David Tao? lol.

He told some funny things about his life. That he learned playing guitar when he was very young. He learned while he was eating, while he was on toilet ... sometimes more than 30 minutes and his mum knocked like crazy on the door, asking him what he is doing, rofl.
Or learning during sleep. so he had 6 strings on his face in the morning and it wasn't cool to go to school like that :P

Or talking about his parents. That his dad loved elvis presley and his mum was a opera singer from the peking opera. So at night he heard his father singing *Love me tender* and then he heard his mum, singing chinese opera *and when u don't know what I mean, use youtube to watch it* peking opera can be very disturbing. he said that, too.

His manager Andy had his birthday today so we sang for him Happy Birthday, that was really cool. David tried really hard to cheer up the audience, but the singaporean people are really shy. He noticed that and then he left the stage, came to the barrier, yelled *screw the rules* and than we sang together.

there were a lot of children on the barrier and David stroked them, gave handshakes and kissed a little girl. Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww :3

Really amazing was, the concert started at 8.48PM and ended at 23.35PM!!! Isn't that amazing? I am still flashed of the concert and I have really to look for some of his cds here.

I've met two lovely and cute chinese girls and before the concert started, we talked about him, JJ Lin, ZaiZai and F4, rofl. They were so surprised that a german girl is interesting in chinese culture and music and staying here for 4 weeks. When I talked about coming here and staying here, both of them said to me: U really need a job here. U are knowing more than me about Singapore.
The whole time they said I should live here ... maybe, who knows? :)
So I will add them at facebook. We changed numbers and they wanna go out with me for dinner, yay :D

Isn't it amazing that I am meeting here so many interesting people who are liking me and interested in me and where I am from?
Shoe said to me: U are having an exciting life. And at the moment ... is it true :D

So, that is all from me.
I have to go off now, taking a short shower and going to sleep *next to saying my buddhist prayers* because of getting up at 9AM, preparing to go together with Grace for the tattoo convention. Yay!

Lots of Love,
Anke

Edit: At the end I snagged some of the posters, lol. XDDDD

I wanna see halfnaked asian guys with a lot of tattoos!

So, in an hour Grace is picking me up for going to the tattoo convention, yay. I am prepared with a digi cam with full batteries and a lot of space :D

Today it seems like it would be a very, very hot day o.O
Maybe I should take a little bit sunlotion with me. would be better, ne?

I am still sleepy. I guess it was 3AM when I fell finally asleep and to crawl of my back this morning was really hard, lol.

Nya, don't have more to tell, rofl.

See u, honeybunnies XDDDDD

@Mama: Wie geht es euch, Mirko und Kiki?

Da du dich mal wieder nicht trauen wirst, hier reinzuschreiben, mach ich es jetzt mal, hehe.
Wie geht es euch so, wie ist das Wetter, was macht Mirko *und seine Wohnung* und wie geht es meiner kleinen Maus?
Meld dich mal, Mama. Hab euch lieb!
Und lieben Gruss auch an Doris, Norbert und Anneliese!
Du weisst ja, dass es mir hier gut geht und ich mich wohl fuehle. Irgendwie kann ich es nicht glauben, dass es erst 3 Tage sind. Ich fuehle mich, als waere ich schon 3 monate hier :)

Ich gehe dann jetzt mal Richtung Zimmer, noch ein bisschen lesen und dann ab auf die Tattoo Convention!

Tschuessi! :)

asian guys + tattoos = nom nom nom

I am back from the tattoo convention. And oh my god, how much I loved it. It was awesome, just awesome. At first I had a wonderful time with Grace together. She is so lovely and cute and we laughed a lot. And drooled a lot. Especially me, rofl.
So, we joined the convention there at 12AM. And there weren't many people. so we had to take a look around and the most of the artists weren't there. After one hour they start to tattooing *_*
I can not express what was in my mind. I saw so many great tattoos and when I would work in this job my whole body would be full with tattoos, I swear. Okay, I am not far away from that, lol. Right now I am having 9 tattoos... But I love it :3
And that is not the end.
I made a lot of pictures but not enough because my batteries were empty after 5 hours :(
When you have the chance to attend a tattoo convention, do it. You won't regret it. Chris Garver from Miami Ink was there, too and Grace made a picture of me with him together, lol.
But u know what? I don't know him, lol. I didn't know how he looked, rofl. So I hope it was REALLY Chris Garver.
I swear, I love the tattoo convention in Singapore, the guys there are SO DAMN FUCKING HOT *.*

I am always surprised by myself because this time I had a really long conversations with two tattoo artists from Germany, Gelsenkirchen. We talked about everything. Singaporeans, asia, tattoos in germany and so on. Kai, the one tattoo artist wanted to buy something for his iPhone, so Grace gave him the adresses of some stores, lol.

She enjoyed it, too. And that is what makes me REALLY happy. Now she wanna have a tattoo, too. When I am coming back to Singapore she is taking me with her when she is getting one. Lol ... I am such a bad influence >P

Actually ... I made with Willie (the manager of the thai master) an agreement of going in the shop again ... for another handpoke tattoo. Ok, that is a lie. Because ... I get two, bwuahahahahahahaha XD

Yes, I am crazy, I know. But I am totally addicted to tattoos. For me it is a spiritual thing, especially after getting the thai tattoos. And the pain is horrible, but it is showing your own borders. This experience is amazing. Like Willie said, no pain, no gain :D

We talked about the *space* of my back, but he is pretty sure to find a place for both tattoos. I don't wanna talk about the design yet, it is a little secret. When I am having those designs on my body, I will share it with u :)
Slowly I have problems to find enough space, especially for the thai tattoos because women can have those kind of tattoos only til their hips. For the rest of the body it isn't allowed to get these kind of tattoos. Sure, another tattoo artist could do it, but there wouldn't they have a meaning and it would be disrespectul against the religion, the culture, against buddha and the tattoo artist. And for me tattoos (all of them) are a spiritual experience, because my tattoos are showing over the years parts of my personality.

So, yay for another tattoos. And then I will talk to alecs to start with the other ones <3

So, what else? Ah, Grace and I went to *subway*, lol. That was my first time eating a sandwich there and it was okay. So, when we finished our sandwiches she tried to teach me chinese and I tried to teach her german. We burst out into tears. Really, my chinese sucks so much, lol.
But we had a lot of fun, that is what it counts :)

So, for today I am won't do anything anymore. Maybe going out for dinner with Gunjan if he wants :)

See ya :D

change your mind!

change your mindset. that is actually a pretty good thought. when I was angry today (short after I left the convention and came back at the hostel( everything went wrong.
I forgot the towels for my shower, the water was cold, I nearly broke my leg because of the slippery ground. I took a deep breath, said to myself the whole time *change your mindset*, calmed down, thought about going out with Gunjan, having a nice dinner and fun.

And we went out. I had a wonderful dinner, Gunjan paid for me *thank u!* and Ah Long shared his watermelon with me, when he crossed our way. After that I saw an awesome dancing show by 600 people in a stadium here in the near. AWESOME! It was so beautiful that I was so, so close to tears. When the people saw me, they smiled and waved. I did it, too.
And I felt so thankful and happy. It was just amazing. And u know what the best thing was? U could see everyone there and it didn't matter which age u had, whether you are an asian, caucasion, women, men, child, ugly, beautiful, smart or not. It was just dancing and being happy.
Next saturday they will have this show again and I'll go there watching them ;)

And I found a "Schwimmbad" here in the near. Just 4 minutes away from the hostel. Even when I am not a supermodel, I am not beautiful, I wanna go there tomorrow :)
Being in a pool will be awesome :D
And it cost me only one singapore dollar for the whole day (50 cent, muahahaha(.

So, I'll look forward!

Lots of love,
Anke
