Yahoo for Ya Hui!<br />
I am grateful for last week’s issue featuring Ya Hui. I<br />
have been waiting for a cover story on this down-toearth<br />
and hard-working artiste for as long as I can<br />
remember. You can’t imagine how happy I was to<br />
see this issue on the news stands last week. Her<br />
sincerity and passion for her craft was apparent in<br />
the interview. I believe she has a lot more to offer<br />
and I look forward to seeing her star in upcoming<br />
productions. She will always have my support.<br />
— Real happy<br />
Ed: And here are some neat treats on us.<br />
Finally, Ya Hui made it to the cover of 8 DAYS! Though<br />
she’s often dismissed as the bland girl-next-door, I<br />
feel that she deserves so much more and that she<br />
has a lot more to offer. It is evident that she has<br />
improved tremendously since her debut. I hope more<br />
opportunities will come her way soon.<br />

10 years ago in the Singapore Idol contest in 2004<br />
and didn't make it to the top 12. The judges weren't<br />
impressed with his vocals. A decade later, Nat Ho<br />
still has not produced a hit song. As outsiders, we<br />
are sometimes tempted<br />
to tell our friends to quit if<br />
we see them struggling to<br />
achieve their dreams without<br />
success for so long. But at<br />
other times, we feel bad<br />
and therefore encourage<br />
them to not give up. So,<br />
where do we draw the line?<br />
When would we know if Nat<br />
should quit singing? Well,<br />
Nat, there will be times<br />
when it feels much harder than you imagined and you’ll<br />
wonder if it’s time to give up on singing. If you can<br />
honestly say the passion you felt when you first started<br />
is gone for good, then it might be time to let go of this<br />
dream. But if you still feel a spark, then dust yourself<br />
off and keep on<br />
singing.<br />

on YouTube. I must give him credit for his persistence.<br />
