It is a Sunday evening, and my first time at the new Mediacorp complex for Star Awards Show 1! The complex is huge, with a large LED screen broadcasting the red carpet event as the stars arrive on the scene. It feels overwhelming that the open area outside the complex is wide enough to contain all the fans who were there and there was still more room available. We were all eager to show our support for Rui En, showing her that we will always be here supporting her because we believe in who she is.
We made our way to the auditorium and found our seats, preparing our posters and banners to show our ardent support for Rui En, and it is especially touching during her award reception speech as she spoke with a heavy heart and with sincerity. It is my second time being part of the cheering squad for Show 1, and I feel that each year, the experience is different because the atmosphere for the event changes. Much as it may be tiring holding the boards, cheering and shouting till our voices are hoarse, it is satisfying knowing that we make our presence felt.
