    Linda reveals the three things she always does before an awards ceremony. Firstly, the night before she always packs her own stuff at home, so that she knows exactly where all her own stuff is. Secondly, every time she commutes she always sings out loud, "do me so me do" non-stop, sometimes even the driver gets sick of her! Lastly, and most importantly, going to the toilet. Every time someone tells her to get ready, she can't help but go to the toilet - the record being more than 10 times before a show begins. Not every time is "necessary", but she does feel more at ease for it.

    She recalls one function she attended where she's told to get ready every 15 minutes, and she's so nervous that she had to go to the toilet every time she heard it. When she was called for the last time, she thought there was plenty of time so she figured she'd go to the toilet one last time, but just then she got called from on-stage and she had to rush from the toilet to the stage. She was a little out of breath but was relieved that no one found out at the time.

    Linda said that her childhood dream was becoming a teacher, but that was destroyed by her sister who entered her into a beauty pageant. This changed her whole life. She said that she's a very quiet person and likes to stay home when she was young, so having the courage to enter a beauty pageant was a "breakthrough" for her.

    Linda was asked to list her three strong points as a singer despite lacking the advantage of a "huge lung". She said that if she has to say, the first thing would be her personality. Since she doesn't like to compete with others, there's less pressure with the awards and every time she would do her best. The next point is that she really enjoy creating music, whenever she has any ideas she would record them. Two songs in her recent album are her own compositions. Lastly, she's punctual. All her training in filming makes her realise that this is an important concept, if she arrives early she'll have more time to prepare and thus perform better.
