Christmas came, and after opening all my presents, I was disappointed to discover that among those gifts, this treasure was not one of them. Then, my mom handed all of us kids a clue, which kicked off a scavenger-type hunt for one more final Christmas item. After deciphering the clues left in each location, I was lead into the bathroom where there was a giant box. It was HEAVY. I thought, damn it, this can't be the CD because it weighs a ton! I open the box, and inside was a giant dictionary. Beside it, was this CD. I was overjoyed. I ran into my room, and proceeded to have my mind blown by the quality tracks on this masterpiece! To this day, that event reigns supreme as my personal "Best Christmas Ever
Great experience. MY STORY is also my favorite album and the first CD I've ever owned. MY STORY came out on the year I became a fan and I was extremely excited of it! I'd really like to have it but I was just a primary school student then and I live in a small town. And then, I saw MY STORY'S commercial on a Singapore TV channel thus knew that it was sold in Singapore. Fortunately, my father would be going on a trip to Singapore and I immediately asked him to buy it for me. I couldn't be happier on the day he went back, I just went back from my English tuition class and greeted by the pinkish MY STORY album... I was overwhelmed! And you know, I asked my father to buy the CD+DVD version even though we didn't have a DVD player at home. My father bought the player eventually LOL. I'd put the CD on my disc player and listen to it whenever I was free at night. And the album was like a 'toy' for me, I had to grab it everyday, flipping over the booklet, until I lost the obi

I'd like to congratulate myself on being an Ayu fan for 10 years as well. I am a college student now. (time fliessss)

I felt so blessed because I finally saw her live at a-nation singapore last October.
