SINGAPOREAN singer JJ Lam，29，admitted that this March couldn’t be better：He outshined Taiwanese superstar Jay Chou and bagged four awards at the China Original Music Pop Chart Award(中國原創(chuàng)音樂流行榜) ceremony，including the most coveted(最渴望得到的)best male singer title．
Yet the trophies(獎杯)were only part of an exciting month．Knowing that he has an O1ympic champion fan，Lam was so happy that he prepared his own gifts for Zhou Yang，the speed skating gold medalist：an autographed(簽名的)CD and a Mickey Mouse doll．He even invited Zhou to his birthday party on March 26 after Zhou told him that it was a great pity she had had to miss Lam's Beijing concert last year．
Lam showed his love and talent for music as early as middle school，but it doesn't mean he easily got to where he is now．Like many young men his age，Lam was once hooked(沉迷)on video games．“One in particular，World of Warcraft，obsessed(迷住)me,” he said．“I made up my own stories and characters and once I even composed(編曲)a soundtrack for the game.”
But luckily Lam soon realized things would have to change．“There was no future in playing games and I had to think about the years ahead,” he said．
After finishing high school，Lam joined the army. On the small island where he was stationed，he wrote dozens of songs．Still，his ambition of one day being a pop singer seemed an unrealistic dream to others．“Later，when my former officers heard my songs being played on the radio, they couldn’t believe it.” he said．
Not that the road to success wasn't a rocky one．When Lam went to Taiwan to develop his career, he felt lonely at first．He started playing computer games again．“I indulged(沉溺) myself in games day and night," he said．“But I came to realize that I mustn’t 1et the games take over my 1ife．I had to go out，see people and meet life’s challenges head on．”
