Going Bonkers

Oops!

I seem to be in a foul mood in the last entry! :P

No worries (well, it’s not like you worried at all), Thiang is happy again! :D (Thanks Fung for your blessing, hur.) The reason behind this is because I had an AWESOME weekend, and I mean it. Even though I didn’t touch on any assignments at all, I still feel satisfied and contented over the weekend. It seems to me that I didn’t waste a single minute, and that’s how I would like my life to be! :D

Friday after dance practice, we were let off pretty early, I headed to Holland V to look for Heatwave seniors and found out that they are really funny people. Haha. I can almost imagine Kenneth’s expression and Nadhirah’s enthusiastic face. Ya lah, and Neng’s outfit (there, that typical long-sleeve/polo with bermudas). :D

Coincidentally, I found out that I have a couple of Heatwave DJs’ pictures I took two weeks ago.

This is Serena. She’s very sweet-looking right??! If I were a guy, I think I might be attracted to her. :D By the way, she’s a part-time DJ like me, just that she’s my junior. ☺


This is Mal. He is a funny Indian. But people say all Indians are funny in a way or another, do you agree? Haha. If I’m not mistaken, I think he likes Chinese girls. Haha. By chance, I saw him doodled on his notebook or something, and what talent he has! :D

Haha, so cute uh? He’s the first Indian I know who actually enjoys drawing.

Heatwave’s current Programme Director is none other than Lee Neng Hao, also known as Tall Boy.

Augh, just note that he looks spastic when he’s in front of cameras.

Lastly, my classmate/odd pal, Wei Long! Now, I just realized he has the tendency to go “AND……erm” in an annoying/funny(w/ nasal voice) way when he’s hosting. :P
---------------

On Saturday, I worked my legs off at Junction 8 (for standing on my feet for 7 hours), and the sales were SOOO bad. ☹ The job is quite mundane and boring. =.= Really.

My favourite part of the job is getting to be the cashier! Even counting the stocks daily, is more fun than giving out free 2008 calendar during shift hours. At least Dao Kai came to find me at 4pm and bought a torch keychain from me! ☺ Thanks!

We headed to Coffeebean and chatted for a couple of hours before we went Suntec. I happen to see Onion at J8 as well! Hur.

On the way to Suntec, Dao Kai and I bypassed this marketing gimmick/ creative advertising:

{Nope, I do not wish to explain to you. :P}

From 7pm onwards, Cindy, Dao Kai and I went for a K Golden session! Only at around 9 plus did Yan Zhi appear. I’m sure all of us had an awesome time, singing to old hits (Reallllly old songs), and the cooliest ones. :P


Eventually we were so ‘high’ we were basically screaming singing. It was so much fun! Heh. On the down side, the bill choked up to $31 per head. Scary shite. And I didn’t have dinner. ☹

Just merely a day ago, I was at Bishan Park performing with D3, and Neng and Dao Kai came to support me. They both had trouble finding the location and reached only just in time to catch me dance. Haha, lucky!

We did a remix for Whine Up, and was asked to do an encore because the emcee wanted to sabotage the organizer (Charlie) and crew/staff. I was super shagged, and I was already forcing every bit of my body to excrete energy to keep my body dancing.

After the dance, I asked Charlie here to take a photo with me.

If you don’t know who he is, go watch Phoa Chu Kang please. I truly believed every Singaporean had watched at least one episode of PCK before, and you would know that Charlie is the subordinate of Chu Kang. No?

Remember “Eh Boss Boss! Can I have my tau huay break now?” with him, wobbling in that retarded manner? So cute! :D

My body was limp and sweaty when I met Neng under a tree. I introduced both of them to one another, and throughout the Coffeebean session at AMK Hub, I knew they could get along well. =.= They talked about everything under the sun, to the point that I actually stopped talking and played with Dao Kai’s O2 instead. Hur hur, it’s a good thing anyway! ☺

Dinner was SUPERB/FABULOUS at Ichiban Sushi, the queuing was all worthwhile! The atmosphere was right, music was good and most importantly, very yummy food! It still puzzles me why I dared tried every single food I haven’t tried before in my entire life. (Maybe it's the company, maybe it's a new experience) Haha, but I didn’t regret it at all. I was stuffed with good food. ☺

Everything was so natural, fulfilling and nice. We three people dwelled into deeper topics about love, life and family. Thank you both for those inspiring chit-chat sessions. I will work hard.

You, might be too nice to be true. How ah how? *coughs*

Losing Grip

Note: Blogged on 2 Nov o7.

I can’t believe I’m wasting my precious school hours just to travel all the way down to Lavender to collect my IC. I could have used it to catch up with my school work, listen to Wei Long’s show or uh, talk to people.

I’m blogging this while the train bypassed Queenstown, and there is this strong that’s pushing my back, making me desire to go visit Gu Jie…

As mentioned in the previous post, I was going to load this piece of memory into my blog, the TV Production day on Halloween. Normally during workshop, we seldom whip out our cameras and snap away, it is just so random we started behaving like real crew members and hosts. :D

For starters, we rotated roles and I had chance being the host (Yay!), then cameraman, followed by the graphic person and lastly, the director. To be honest, it finally dawned on me I’m bad handling with video cameras. As much as I want to prove other people wrong, I really have trouble controlling the movements, especially with a height like mine, it’s really difficult trying to maneuver the heavy machinery. ☹

However, I think I think a pretty good job being the director, switcher and hosts, all of those roles that play a major part as well. I digress a little, but for my upcoming attachment next semester, I’ve picked TV as my second choice, next to Radio. ☺ So I’ve made up my mind to do well in TV, so that I can go to Beijing in 2008 for the special making for Olympics with 4 lecturers and 35 other outstanding students!

Now I’m making my way back to school and I’m feeling a tad out of place, reason is some odd mid-thirties men are looking at me, making me itch in my seat. Another would be this Caucasian sitting next to me, I hope he doesn’t shift his eyes to my screen, just focus on his female friend. There’s something about Caucasians that I like, it seems like no matter what, I will always find something very attractive about them to look at. Hmm. So, I’m kinda nervous now as well. Hur hur.







Firstly, I was the host. The soundman had to check my microphone, the cameraman the framing etc. To show you how cheeky, naughty and annoying Selwyn can get, check out my shoulders. It’s already tough for me to sit on a high chair, and in addition, I have to balance Sam’s Hoot Hoot and Helen’s broken arm.

Right, you might now know who’s Helen. Nah, look.

Selwyn pulling out Helen’s hand and them having fun. :D

Being the typical Thiang, I would ask others how I look on screen etc, and I’m glad I have positive remarks, except that my complexion is shiny (oily, if you get the point).

Out of nowhere, Selwyn pulled out a toy gun from somewhere neat the table and Mag and I just fooled around with it. Heh heh. Plus, how the studio looks like:








Directing a TV programme is very challenging in my opinion, not only do you have to give precise commands, you have to also take note of the filming, music, graphic and being tactful at the same time.



{Ok, the smell of this cabin is unbearable, I want to get out of here ASAP. Woah, BTH!}

Here’s my teacher:


☺

I’m reaching Dover! Yay. I’m nearing school. I’m nearing… happiness. :P

P.S {Oh yes! On bus 74 now, and there’s two Caucasian eye candies for me. :P }
{{Walao, a guy sitting opposite me is playing PSP.}}

I'm sorry for this very unconventional post. My life's starting to screw, pretty badly. I'm lost track, I'm confused, I'm out of time and energy, I'm outta my mind.

Till I get back on my feet,
Thiang.

Toodles!

My heart skipped a bit, when I think of you.

Happy Halloween!

As most of my friends will know, I am well-known to be a typical “cheena-pok”, thus Halloween to me will mean nothing except for Caucasians/ ‘Banana’ Singaporeans having fun scaring people and dressing up as scary people.

Perhaps the idea of actually going out after school on Halloween gave me the drive to wanting to play dress up for a day. Thus, a friend and I said we were going to make some preparations for Halloween. This was probably decided last weekend, and the easiest outfit I could get out from my wardrobe would be closer to a witch. Yes, because being the huge Harry Potter fan I am, throughout the years I’ve gotten myself the magical stuffs that appeared it the Harry Potter movies/books.


My friend decided to do up decorations as well as go for Halloween shopping, you know, the “Trick or Treat” question you have to ask and give out candies? Yeah, I think he purchased quite a lot of ‘em and distributed among friends.

Heh. This year’s Halloween would probably mean a little something to me since I actually forgo my woolen jacket to bring the accessories/toys instead. No lah, I had a fun day with a few of my friends both in school and outside of school.

While I was hosting, Germaine wanted to play as well. :) Can you see that the conty is being drawn with ghosts, pumpkin and witch? :D I digress, don't you agree that she looks like local celeb, Constance Song? Hmm.

I was demoralized in the noon as the last thing I wanted from Ziggy Soh was to lock me out of the classroom, AGAIN. I even skipped all my meals just to rush to the class! ☹

If I’m not mistaken, he seems to like to pick on Bruce, Selwyn and me a lot. Midway during Advertising, he made Bruce and me tell a joke to the class while loading for MeL to load, followed by teasing/insulting us, cracking the class up. 0.0

Stupid Selwyn had been disturbing me all day with the fake wands (his rolled up posters actually), and fooling around with my witch’s hat that I think Ziggy might be a little offended.




Joining me to dress up yesterday was none other than Selwyn and Bruce, whom dressed up as Gibryon and Jap man respectively. This reminds me that I forgot to take photo of Bruce’s half-costume! Everybody had a good laugh with Selwyn’s pink polo and high-waited trousers, well and I’m sure he had fun time as well since he looked metalhead/emo for the rest of the 364 days. :P


On the way to FMS block, Heather wore Selwyn’s black mask and made her look like she came out from Star Wars movies, and that was really interesting as well! She was getting so much attention! She looks really good in the mask though, don’t you think so? :D


At TV Production, I had an awesome with my classmates, taking loads of photos while switching roles for our TV practice (next entry! :D ). Mr Foo thought I was going to party later in the night and queried, saying that he would come and join me, haha! How cute.

Someone even brought out the broom from within the studio to complete my look. :D I brought my HP scarf, plushie Pigwidgeon (my pet owl name!), and witch’s hat. Of course, I tied plaits because that’s how little witches look like, are they not? Plus, I wore a brown satin dress, since I don’t have black cloak or Hogwart’s school uniform (which is a pity!). Heh. Overall, it’s a fun experience in school to have people looking at you while you walk around in school, some giving you weird looks and raised eyebrows.

At 6pm, I went underpass Eil and Neng, and headed to Holland Village. One thing I realized, we’re all very “anything” people, so when we stood in front of Thai Express, that’s the first time Eil and I ate there. Haha.


The food was good, I finished every bit of it. Eil’s Tom Yum looked so innocent, no trace of any orangey-red colour nor chilli oil floating, but she says it tastes spicy. Interesting.


Over dinner, something most extraordinary (to me) happened. Well, let’s say it’s the most ‘open’ conversation ever took place in my life, having a friend beside me while the other talked about things that make me felt so…different. Hur. The secret is kept safe between us three. Hur.




We were meant to go Cold Rock (Café, is it?) to have ice-cream, as recommended by Neng. So we had 2 large cups of ice-cream there, I love it! The place was very well-decorated, strategically placing a cloaked skeleton near the door step. Initially I thought it was stationary, but when I touched its hands to examine it further, it moved and cackled, “Save me! Save me!”. Obviously, I got a shock, jumped on the spot, and heard laughter spreading in the small shop. 0.0

Thanks ah. ☺


I have no idea why, but when I saw these three girls dressed up as ghosts, I had to courage to ask if I could take photo with them. Super fun can, asking random people to take photo with me. :P




I hope you've had a Happy Halloween as well!


Indeed, I was lethargic as the day drew to a close, but I had an awesome time on the bus, thinking, on the things that will make me smile in my sleep.

Thanks Eil and Neng! ☺

Like a lot. *coughs*
