What: Rui En’s Birthday Celebration 2009

When: 23 January 2009

Where: Kbox Cineleisure

Birthday gatherings are norms for many FCs, but for RBKD and most of us, that was our first.

Much as we preferred a private gathering, we had no complaints if Hype’s the one in-charge of all the organising and of course, footing of the bill. Thanks Hype!

Guess what this is? 4 self-compiled travel guides to the best Beaches in the world! And we wonder if they ever came in handy =/

Overall, it was a heartwarming session. These videos should do a better job than words could in describing the fabulous day spent. So click for YES933 瑞恩《共和國》庆生会 2009.

What: 共和國 United States Album First Autograph Session

When: 17 January 2009

Where: Jurong Point 2, Centre Stage

There was a tinge of sadness when Rui En sang 穿反 on stage. But all we could do was to sing along with her, even if it’s off-the-key and off-the-tune.

We didn’t like the stage set up at all, too near to the escalator at the back, we never had to be that worried for her fans’ safety.

What went on during the autograph session was just like any other, except for a little misunderstanding towards the end.

We had wanted to wait for the crowd to go on first before we proceed to queue. The rationale of this was simple, we hope other fans could go on stage first and not the FC which always enjoy the priority. We don’t mind being the last but, don’t close the gates on us………

At the end of the day, each of us walked off the stage with an autographed album, a photo and also a big question mark hovering above our head – “When would her third album be released?”

Would it be another 6 years’ wait? I don’t dare to think. What’s your take?

What: Punggol Countdown 2009

When: 31 December 2008/1 January 2009

Where: Punggol

Bee, Exco:

Although there were only 4 attendees for this countdown event at Punggol (as most of our members were at the bigger scale event at Vivo), we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves with Rui En singing 《青蛙》, 《游记》 and 《慢舞》, as well as screaming our lungs out as if there were 40 fans.

The time spent there was rather short as Rui En had to rush off for the countdown event at Vivo.

Xianli, Member:

It was my very first time meeting up with RBKD people and doing “star chasing” activities. As well as seeing Rui En in person.

Although i could only stand in a distance watching Rui En performing, but i still enjoy it very much. Cheering and screaming for her with a group of people who share the same idol as you is definitely better than those who doesn’t.

Each time after seeing Rui En in person, i would like to support her even more. Somehow I enjoy the part where we were “battling” with her nanny/manager. The crew were all “protecting” her, while we squeezed to try to talk to her or pass her things. It really make the term “star chasing” – star chasing. I used to thought that it was dumb to do so, but now, i don’t know why i enjoy it. haha!

What: Channel 8 Countdown Party 2009 at VivoCity

When: 31 December 2008/1 January 2009

Where: VivoCity

Most of our members, including myself, were newbies to the FC scene. The Vivo Countdown party was the first MCS program we attended, so we were totally clueless how things were going to be like.

We arrived slightly after twelve noon and subsequently, Naturally Nat, Felicity and Jeanius came too. Fast forward to 10pm, we were finally allowed into the mosh pit. Definitely worth the 10hours’ wait as we were right smack in front of the stage. Perfect view.

The program started at around 10.30pm but we were informed that Rui En would only be performing her piece after midnight. Well, why waste the last hour of our year 2008 right? So we sang to the music, cheered and clapped for everyone as though they were our idols too. It’s all about having fun isn’t it?

Talking about “stretching one’s limit beyond imagination”, goodness when Rui En was on stage, each of us screamed like Maria Sharapova in her tennis games, deafening. I honestly had the temptation to stuff tissue paper into my ears. And luckily for our throats, we bought lozenges for everyone.

Dead beat at the end of the day but what better way to start 2009 with screams, cheers and Rui En? Uh-oh, and a sore throat too ;)

What: 共和國 United States Album First Autograph Session

When: 22 November 2008

Where: Bookfest@Singapore 2009, Suntec Convention Halls

It was a last minute decision for myself to head down to Suntec 2 days before my exams. But for many others, they had been anticipating this since 6 years back.

The most memorable part of this autograph session had to be our decision to 穿反 our shirt, that is to wear it inside out. “You must be mad!” Yes I think we are mad.

It was definitely awkward initially, kind souls politely informed us that we were wearing our shirts inside out. So imagine the look on their faces when we replied, “Yep, we did it deliberately because Rui En has this song titled – 穿反”. Were we amused? Maybe.

And did I mention how we went round distributing red ribbons for AIDS awareness, made on our own accord? (Details).

The day ended with a frantic chase to the backstage and of course, a hurried group photo as always :)

DJs Cruz & Liyi, YES 933:

Liyi: 志勇啊, 我觉得什么样的人就吸引什么样的粉丝.
Cruz: 哦?
Liyi: 你知道瑞恩专辑里有一首”穿反”? 那时瑞恩的专辑签唱会, 就有她的一群粉丝把他们的衣服穿反, 然后也不在意别人怎么看, 就满场到处走. 跟瑞恩一样的酷.

DJ Ken, UFM 1003:

“除了歌曲以外hor, 还留下了很深的印象是因为那天我去主持她的那个专辑的发布会的时候, 就是有个签名会的时候呢, 现场有很多她的歌迷, 然后有一群人呢, 他们真的把衣服穿反leh. 穿反你知道是什么意思吗? 就是衣服的, 衣服的里面跟外面是倒反的. 那平时我们脱衣之后不是会反过来吗? 对. 他们就这样穿, 所以他的Label是在后边的. 你可以看到他的衣服的Label是在后面的. 她的一群听歌迷都穿反了衣服, 让我的印象很深刻. 然后我就想, 哇有那么一群支持她的歌迷她真的真的很幸福哦.”
