YouTube Patti.
WHOA!
At last the exams are over.
Relieved...but next Tuesday will be killer days beginning.
Anyway, I've been chilling out since yesterday and I intend to do so till Monday.
So I've been indulging myself in Patti's YouTube videos.
They're nice.
But I wonder if anyone likes it other than me.
HOHOHO!!!
Christmas is coming soon and guess what?
Patti's got a new Christmas CD called Ms. Patti's Christmas.
It ain't gonna reach S'pore so soon cos it's only released like yesterday.
So I'll try maybe during late November or early December.
Soon, everything's gonna be normal.
Haha.
All the Class Chairman stuffs are gonna start again.
Plus, I have to plan for the golf BBQ.
So I really don't have loads of relaxing.
Well, I'll be going out with Glen, Sulynn and Rach when the time comes.
and Ain too!
Ain's real sweet.
I'll do a write up about her and Glen soon.
Cos after all, I've wrote about Sulynn and Rach.
Well, nothing much to write about now.
So just chill and relax you guys!

Honorary Legend of R&B .
Legend Gladys Knight started out as a little girl at the age of 9 in Atlanta, Georgia.
Soon, together with her voice, siblings and friend, she formed the Pips.
They travelled down South, holding the pass of segregation.
It was tough for the Pips.
Gladys Knight did not give up singing.
In fact, she pushed on.
With the protection of her brothers, no man could ever lay a finger on her.
Because at that time, she was so young.
All she knew was singing.
And she did that for over 50 years.
In the 1980s, the Pips broke up.
Gladys, in order to support her family, had to continue singing.
But she was afraid, unable to face the crowds because she was now, ALONE.
But still, she did performances night after night, day after day.
Never stopping and at the same time, working as a full-time mum.
Despite stress and fatigue, she never stopped and made the billboard charts proud,
scoring hits such as 'I Heard It Through the Grapevine', 'Midnight Train to Georgia' as well as 'Good Woman'.
Soon enough, she collaborated with other legends such as Elton John, Patti LaBelle, Dionne Warwick and Stevie Wonder and literally excelled above all singers of R&B.
Up till this date, Gladys Knight has won numerous awards and a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame and is now helping the pandemic of AIDS over in Africa.
In 2005, she was also honored at the Oprah Winfrey's Legends Ball as herself, a true legend.
and at the same time, release her newest album, 'Before Me' in 2006.
With her raspy R&B sound, even at the age of 63, she's still strutting her stuff.
Gladys Knight really shows that she ain't going on that midnight train back to Georgia but show that her soul will forever, shine on.
