When I was first told that Rui En was going to make an appearance at The Final 1, I was over the moon as I have not heard her singing live before!

Yanling and I were tasked to bring the boards that day, as her appearance was supposed to be a “Surprise”, we didn’t stay as a group as we usually do, didn’t wish anyone to say “hi”, etc, all so to avoid people noticing us (from RBKD, i.e. there to support her).

When the master of ceremony announced that Taufik was going to sing “Sky’s the limit”, we were on our toes. When Rui En stepped out onto the stage, we went “bonkers”, we stood up and waved the boards to the music. She was certainly a great crowd rousers. I was very thankful that the music accompaniment were actually good. We could hear their voices clearly, of course, got super high from Rui En’s rocking performance!

I was also pleasantly surprised to see our Malaysian fan, Weijen flew in especially for this event. I was privileged to have a short catch up with her and Joey after the show.

Thank you RBKD for making it an enjoyable event and that we accomplished our mission of staying “mysterious” till she made the appearance!

The response I had when I got to know that she’s making a special appearance on the Final 1 is almost as equivalent as of a superstitious lady who got pregnant for the very first time – that moment of joy and excitement that sent you into a frenzy mode and you would love to share with the people around you, but you can’t until a certain point of time… Hahaha.

Anyway, I had fun singing and screaming with other rangels as we waved the boards in harmony. Oh, and the whole part of acting mysterious like a FBI on mission until the final showdown where she pops out… I kinda enjoyed that too…

All good things will come to an end, the song ended and the whole performance felt so surreal when she went off and vanished to the side of the stage. Gone in a blink of an eye… But we had fun!
