Rebecca, Ordinary Member:

The most memorable part of this roadshow is when all of us dressed in red tees instead of the club tee to have the “CNY” mood. Also, we went up the stage in 2 rows to take photos with the cast and we turned around and said “Rui En, Happy new year!!!!!~ *cheers*” That’s when she got the loudest new year greeting

What: Life is Beautiful Debut Premiere

When: 13 February 2015

Where: NKF Auditorium

–

Rebecca, Ordinary Member:

It was my first time attending a show preview so I was really excited to watch the first episode of Life Is Beautiful as I am keen to know more about NKF. Also, I got to know more about kidney failure and how dialysis works after all the cast explained in detail about how a person with high blood pressure and high cholesterol can get kidney failure with what they consume daily as I didn’t know how one can be diagnosed with it.

It was really an eye-opener for me that day as I got to know how diet can change somebody else’s life forever. This show is more than a drama as it teaches everyone the right way to stay healthy by eating right! I am really glad I got the opportunity to learn something that night with RBKD

Melissa, Priority Member:

When I arrived at the NKF Auditorium earlier that day, I got worried after seeing that it was so small. Turns out we got pretty good seats and the small area meant everything felt more intimate!

I sat kind of directly behind our FC photographer and naturally throughout the event she looked in my (photographer’s actually but I will say my ) direction a lot. I saw all her poses and glares/stares/smizes full on and had to mentally tell myself do.not.squeal.aloud. I lost count of how many times my heart melted~ I think our photographer is awesome for being able to remain so calm and take so many good pictures (Y)

Afterwards a few of us went for dinner at a nearby hawker centre. We watched TV together and had dinner together. It felt like a family outing. It always feels that way when RBKD get together.

Adelyn, Ordinary Member:

I was delighted to be able to attend the roadshow held on 17 Jan as it is always a pleasure to be able to see her up close. I’m also glad to have the opportunity to get on stage to interact and play a simple game with Rui En. Even though it is just for a few minutes, I felt blessed as I know that many fans of her don’t have the chance to.

I look forward to the next event where I can scream and support her with the rest of the members.

Zhiqing, Priority Member:

It’s been more than a month since I last saw my fellow Rangels, and of course Rui En, and thus I was feeling pretty excited ever since early morning. As usual, we started queueing hours before the start of the countdown show, which commenced at 8pm. Since we had ample time before the commencement of the programmes, we bought some light snacks and had our mini picnic there. It was definitely a good catch-up session!

At 8pm, more people started to join in the crowd. There were many different types of performances, ranging from those by the Community Club, to performances by celebrities. Since the skit was rather entertaining and the songs were popular old school songs, they were definitely enjoyable and memorable for all.

At approximately 11.45pm, the moment that everyone has been anticipating has finally arrived! Just as Rui En was walking towards the stage, everyone screamed their lungs off, for we could no longer contain our excitement. Of course, we sang along as loudly as we could and waved to the beat. After the two songs,  ‘是谁’ and ‘麻木’, the whole atmosphere was hyped up and we were all ready to countdown to the new year with Rui En.

Even though I have been counting down to the new year with RBKD, and of course, Rui En, for the past three years, I must say that I still do cherish the opportunity to countdown with everyone as one big family and doing silly things together such as taking our last ‘wefie’ of 2014 and first ‘wefie’ of 2015. And here’s to many many more years of attending the countdown show together! :)

Junqi, Priority Member:

Second time counting down with RBKD and I’m so glad it’s at Katib HAHA :P

I guess it’s a very different experience when you are the videographer because you can’t really concentrate much on the performance while getting your job done. Kudos to the photographers and videographers for previous events – 辛苦了~

I really really like the live version of 麻木 HEH :D Everyone was so high after the clock struck twelve! Screaming, shouting and playing with the spray cans, but not forgetting to clear up before we leave.

It was a great night! Hope 2015 will be amazing for all :)

What: Against The Tide Fan Meet

When: 20 September 2014

Where: Thomson Plaza

–

Daphne, Ordinary Member:

I was really looking forward to attending the fanmeet! Upon arriving at Thomson Plaza at the reporting time, quite a number of people were already seated in the barricaded area. As time passed, more people started to fill the area and I have to say, many people came down on that day wearing black to support Rui En.

When the casts appeared, that area (even at the higher levels of the shopping centre) broke into loud screams and shoutouts for the idols. During the talk about each character, we screamed out every time Dr Snow/Xueqing was mentioned and Christopher made a humorous remark about it. It was nice seeing Rui En making different facial expressions (especially when we waved to her) and laughing during the entire event.

Cheering with RBKD vs going alone/with friends is really different. With RBKD, everyone got to hold the different Rui En boards while cheering and it made me feel like I was part of something, and it feels greeeeattt! Although your own voice couldn’t be heard when cheering, but cheering together brings out a much bigger sound of support. It was such a memorable experience, really do hope to cheer and scream our hearts out for her, together again.

Wei Jen, Priority Member:

I decided that I would attend this roadshow because it was a weekend, and to go down to Singapore to support her, cheering and rooting for her together with Rangels, to me is always something that offers some excitement to my everyday life, and is always a privilege.

It was a pretty rushed trip as I touched down late on Friday night after work, slept a few hours and then headed to Thomson Plaza. Something interesting to note is, from queuing, preparing until the end of the event, what was constant throughout was the repeated playing of the theme song – for 4 hours the same music had been looping in my head…

The audience had a great time seeing the artistes in real person and got their signatures and of course, I also enjoyed myself screaming together with all of us for her! That is a good throat exercise once in a while I suppose :)

Yingmei, Priority Member:

It’s the second time I’m attending Star Awards Show 2 and I was really very excited, mostly about what Rui En was going to wear haha and I can’t forget how everyone was like WOW when we saw her outfits for the night. I totally loved the white gown~

It was great to have the chance to attend and see her in real life going up on stage and thanking us while we were all waving our fanboards and cheering for her :’) And I didn’t know we had red boards! The new boards seem totally awesome haha kudos to the committee for making them visible from the front and even from the back :) It was so heartwarming to see her so happy when her 最火搭档 won the Best Actress Award and we were all so happy for the two of them hahaha.

It was nice to see many bridging peeps join us for the night and I look forward to next year’s SA and seeing all the new members too!!

Clarence, Ordinary Member:

This was the first time I attended Star Awards, and I was really excited and nervous at the same time. I met up with the rest of the RBKD members at the location where the red carpet walk would start later on. We got all the sign boards and posters of our one and only Rui En ready, and we even had a pre-rehearsal by Snail to make sure that we knew what we were supposed to do.

After much waiting, the time came and the red carpet show began. It was not long after that Rui En came onto the red carpet, and we were all shouting like crazy and holding our boards high to show our utmost support for her. She was in a red dress which was just amazing and she looked super gorgeous.

Then, it was time to enter the Star Awards main show location. It was really an eye opener for me as the place was really grand and the stage was huge. Not long after we were seated, the show started and I had this funny feeling that in the past 25 years of my life, I have not seen a live award show. I really enjoyed myself a lot and am thankful for the chance given by RBKD to join in the fun and to be part of this big family. Even though Rui En did not win the Best Actress award in the end, I am still very happy for her as we all know she is the best.

After the show we had a short meet up with Rui En, and I must say I was just speechless. She was in her beautiful white dress, and to be able to see her in person made my night. I really appreciate this chance and I hope that I will have the privilege to attend this event with RBKD again.

Lionel, Priority Member:

It was my first time attending Red Carpet Star Awards, so I was excited and unsure of what to expect, except for loud cheering and shouting. The whole experience can be summed up in three words – tiring yet satisfying.

Why was it tiring? Cheering and hollering at the top of our voices, with the lifting of big boards was hardly an easy feat. Yet, all of us pulled through, raising the boards and shouting at the top of our lungs to give the best presence we can. And that is where the satisfaction comes in, knowing that our efforts were appreciated and that it made a difference on that day.

While the stars were the main attraction, we were there to ensure our star received her attention in full glory.

Peijun, Priority Member:

Fact: It’s totally different watching SA on a flat screen at home vs experiencing it live.
At home, a 30-45 secs ad on tv felt almost like an eternity.
You could take a trip to the bathroom, make yourself a cup of drink, and still have enough
time to “wayang” back to your seat.

But over there, the show probably got started the moment you push open the empty cubicle door…

Yea, I’m a newbie and it’s my first time at SA.
I finally got to experience the legendary hellish hot car park
that some whined at the thought of it lol.
Respect to those who queued overnight.

Anyway, I am really amazed by how well RBKD & Elvinology gets along.
E.g. Sharing “screen time” for the banners and cheering for one another.

One last thing.
Let’s not forget the delicious london choco roll.

What: L’Oreal Paris Roadshow

When: 29 March 2014

Where: Compass Point

Yanjun, Priority Member:

Sometimes, going for her events makes me feel like I’m exploring Singapore because apparently, I never knew that some of these malls existed. :P If my memory doesn’t fail me, this is probably the first time I stepped into Compass Point cause I missed the L’Oreal Paris roadshow there last year. Having seen from the video that the one that was held last year had a rather large stage area, I was expecting it to be similar this year. However, it ended up to be at an area a lot smaller than what was expected.

When I reached, it was around two hours away from her appearance but the front of the stage was already completely occupied by her fans. The crowd just became larger as it approached the time for her appearance. Due to the large crowd and the small area, it was as though we were on the MRT during the peak hour period where we were close to being packed like sardines. As always, despite all the discomfort when surrounded by a crowd, it was an enjoyable event where we screamed our lungs out for her. Yes, because she’s worth it. :)

Yvonne, Priority Member:

I was kind of excited for the road show at Compass Point as I missed the previous one. Reached the venue as per reporting time; there were already quite a number of fans at the atrium. It seems like there were quite a lot more people willing to wait for hours for her appearance. (Of course we are happy for her!!)

Thought that the host for the roadshow was rather nice; not only did he do his part in promoting the L’Oreal Paris product, but also constantly reminded the audience on Rui En’s Star Award Top 10 hotline. As always, Rui En looked stunning when she made her appearance at the roadshow. Am glad that she is so cheery throughout the event, all her smiles and laughter are so genuine and sincere. Even though I didn’t participate in any of the activities (games/photo taking) up on stage with her (which I won’t dare to either), I am already contented as the view from the second row was awesome too.

Yeeling, Priority Member:

The venue wasn’t that packed yet when I reached early to help my fellow Rangels look after the space. When the host announced that Rui En was the celebrity for this event, we screamed and the host thanked us for the screams.

When she was on the way to the stage, you could see all the hands raised up with phones, cameras and video recordings turned on, spamming flashes, snapping sounds from DSLRs and our cheering.

During the event, she kept all of us entertained by her speeches, waves and smiles.

There were two awkward moments that day, first when the host said that if any audience knew the answer, please shout “I Love Watsons”, and I shouted too loudly until she heard me. When I saw the make-up items on the stage, I was shocked and had no idea what to do. The L’Oreal staff guided me on what to use but my mind was blank and my hands were shaking while I was drawing. When she looked at me, she said I looked like “Faye Wong” and like “I was having a concert”. That made me more embarrassed because that was my first time drawing eyeliner in front of her and the public.

I enjoyed the time spent with Rangels, working together to look after the space for our videographer and photographer so everyone would be able to enjoy the event. I also enjoyed shouting for her and also got to see lots of her cute expressions throughout the event.
