Alive - a HK "man-band"

康熙来了 at cable had 4 HK stars of ALIVE last nite: Daniel Wu, Conroy Chan, Andrew Lin & Terence Yin. You can't name them as boy band cos they're all over 30. This band was formed just for a HK movie production on how band made use of media to fame them more.

Watching these guys made me recall my trip to London abt 4 yrs ago when I met Terence Yin.
It was Halloween nite. My gf & I were on our way back to our hotel, when a car stopped by us.
2 chinese guys spoke and asked if we need help, cos we looked really lost with all the confused London streets.
Perhaps we looked really lost and we're chinese too, they felt a need to help us (?!), esp. on such a cold winter nite.
There was some conversation going on and of course, being strangers in a place, we refused help. But I couldn't help finding one of the guys very familiar.. Wanted to ask, but didn't want to look like little girls or fools...

He stood before us in his trench, very tall, very cool looking... and I thought, not bad for such encounters whilst I was in a midst of trying to get over my ex then with this trip.
Spoke that he was from States and then in HK before coming by here, and inviting us to a Halloween party nearby.. though my gf was game, I declined (but what the hell were we thinking then, rejected cool guys' invite?!), saying we were tired after a long flight frm Singapore...

Nonetheless, they drove off. Some minutes later, they U-turned and brought us hot cocoa, some sweets and no tricks. Some sweet guys ya? And they told us where they're heading, hoping us to join them... anyhow, we just walked on after chatting...

Later back to our hotel, I logged on to internet, and gasps to my horrors(!!), I couldn't believe I just rejected Terence Yin... sigh, stupid me. Apparently he was in London doing a cast in a Hollywood production with Angelina Jolie... Back in Singapore, I went to his website and left a message there. He really replied a few days later, saying that when I'm HK, I could drop him a note via his email. Didn't drop him any note after that, cos didn't want to sound like some fanatics or some strange teenyboppers, though was very overjoyed... So, it was really a sweet encounter with big star like him.

A few days later, we went to Camden and was in a tiny vintage shop and Ms Jolie was standing beside us with her cap wearing low and big tinted sunglasses... She's really beautiful and her lips' really full and luscious. Few days later, read the london papers, her pictures were really taken by some paparazzis in Camden.

I really met cool stars.
