If u listened to 933 "就是万人迷" this morning or passed by Cruz's blog, U would have heard the news... Lingzhi is leaving 933! And Friday will be her last day on air... This post will be my 933 listening experiences wrt Lingzhi...
Firstly I must say that I am quite sad to hear the news. Coz Lingzhi is my fav DJ on 933 lor... Loved listening to her Music Diary then! The first time I heard Music Diary was only when I was in army, and then I tried to listen to it whenever I could. Once I was having outfield in Tekong acting as enemy and I remembered switching on my receiver at 8 to listen to MD. I didn't really remember the story, but it was about letting go when it is time to, and one of the songs being played was Stefanie's "相信". Listening to Lingzhi's voice and nice songs helped me to be less sad in the mosquitoes-infested jungles of Tekong. And in camp, I would always bring along my receiver to listen to MD whenever I was on guard duty too!
And then... NTU! I still tried to listen to MD or the replays whenever possible, and there were some shiftings in timing too, something like to 8.30, then to 11 and back to 8.30. Other than MD, "2300 寂寞有人陪" ,the night show by Lingzhi, was my favourite too! I listened to it when I was studying at night to keep me awake, I even called in a few times and dedicated songs to my friends, where I'll be like rushing to mention as many names as I could... Do u know, I once even wrote down a list of names and pinned on my notice board so that when I called in, I would not miss out certain names?? Haha...
I love Lingzhi's night show because it creates a perfect studying environment for me in hall, complete with my own room and my own desk. *Bringing back many Hall 14 memories now* And I always think that many NTU students listen to her prog too, esp during exam time, when there'll be many phone & sms dedications from NTU grads! U can hear representatives from almost all of the 15 halls... Ok usually its the same ppl calling in, but still, 933 rules in NTU k!
And then in my final year... Lingzhi went to host "就是万人迷" with Cruz! Every morning 7am... abit early for me honestly. But on some days, I had lessons at 0830, and I would tune in to 933 in the early morning to listen to their suaning each other and lame jokes and wake up! If I had lessons at 1030 or maybe noon, I would probably set my alarm at 8 plus or 9 and if i managed to wake up, I'll laze in bed while listening to 933 before I finally washed up. I love the 默契 between them, and Chuan Lai would come in and guest star on Tues (?) too.
I forgot when Mary came in, but things certainly got more exciting with 3 people hosting the morning show, and somehow the 3 of them are like the combo. I just thought that if it was another 933 DJ joining LZ and Cruz, the effect would perhaps be worse. But with Mary, everyone seems to be complementing everyone else!
However there were some ridiculous listeners who actually wrote in to the media and complained about Lingzhi! One was about her suaning Zhiyong's looks and the other was about her mentioning about toilet bowls and spoiling the complainer's appetite. How utterly absurd! No comments lor. Some people are simply boh liao.

Byez Lingzhi...
Perhaps Lingzhi left because she is tired, like how Kit and Yanzi were. Perhaps she felt it's time to let go and, she has been letting go of Music Diary bit by bit, letting it remain only in our memories. Perhaps she just wants to find back herself. I dunno... But I wish Lingzhi all the best, and hopefully someday, we'll still hear her on radio again.
