Touched by Fantasy

I can't believe that I am actually affected by what has been glueing most of Malaysians (and Bruneians too I heard) to their TV sets on Saturday evenings - I was devastated when one of the contestants was voted out earlier tonight on Akademi Fantasia!  I always thought that I am above the 'common people' (Jasmin would call them 'peasants'..:) )to be following such a frivolous, mainstream phenomenon, but here I am...  In fact in the last few weeks save last week when I had to go balik kampung to visit my parents, my Saturday night life has revolved around that - whatever social gatherings I have had were always around the TV screen!
 
I am frankly embarrassed to admit this, but hey, I just did it and it's out!  Maybe this is a good way to face who I really am and not be concerned with what other people will say.  There you have it - this is me, and I like to watch Akademi Fantasia!  I not only like to watch it, I dwell in it too, I follow the thing with feeling!!!  Huh, mad world. :)
