i am now a truly converted Jay Chou fan.

first, i hated him. that was back in 2001 when i first heard his songs and couldn't figure out what in the world he is singing. when everybody was going "JIE LUN!!!", i totally couldn't understand what's so great abt this guy?

no looks, unimpressive voice, intelligible songs...*thumbs down

then, back in first year, peiling and eugene introduced the first Jay song i like "Jian Dan Ai". Peiling showed me the MTV, and i finally can read for myself what wonderful lyrics his songs have. My ice cold heart melted a little bit...and peiling transferred more songs into my comp..and the more i listen, the more i like his songs ("shi jie mo ri", "long juan feng", "ke ai nu ren","kai bu liao kou"........)

no looks, okay voice, b.e.a.u.t.i.f.u.l. lyrics...*shrug shoulder

so from 1st to end of 2nd year, i started my little Jay collection on my comp. somewhere along the way, wp discovered Jolin's new album, which have quite a few songs written by Jay. and i fell in love with those songs (while wp and edwin fell in love with jolin *snigger)...then, 3rd year came around and i got to know Jay fanatics - Germ and Wing. Germ was the one who introduced me to even more songs (thanks to Wing who lent Germ her new Jay album). and his new songs 100% thawed my heart.

ok looks, good voice, simply-fantastic lyrics, wonderous melodies...*thumbs up

then came 4th year and my Jay collection grew *blush* i was 90% converted already. going to clinics became more tolerable because he was singing to me all the way from my mp3 player. i love his voice, and i love his songs. the final ritual to complete my conversion? Ruby and her Jay Chou 2004 concert VCD. 2 weeks ago, in her living room and on her extremely huge TV, Jay gave a smile, and i melted into a puddle of human flesh. he has dimples...and i am such a loser when it comes to guys with dimples *blush blush blush.

cute guy, great voice, excellent songs, mind-blowing muscial talents...*screaming "JIE LUN"

he had me glued to my laptop screen yesterday...cos deares ruby gave me a copy of his concert VCD. and more than once, when he glanced into that camera, i felt like i've been electrocuted and my heart rate going up. and as he sings and his voice filled my ears, i wanted to be transported into that fantasy-land where i can actually meet him in person (and maybe he'll fall in love with me...wuahahaha..ok ok, my imagination is going way off...)

sigh. here i am, fantasising about meeting a guy who is way beyond me. if i live in a hollywood movie, i might still have a slight chance. but, this ain't hollywood...it's melbourne. and sadly, i have to return to reality - sitting in a lecture theatre and listening to boring lectures *groan

but, right now, as i am sitting in the comp lab typing this entry, Jay is singing from my mp3 player. for the next 30 mins, i am a happy girl. *grin grin grin
