A trip back to NUS

My commencement is on 9th July! (Which is also my sister birthday ^^) Yay I got 4 invites so my whole family can go.

Went to pick up my invitation cards and also return a loan giro form at NUS. Met Shera at the bus stop~ Saw Jingwen too but he vv fast disappear. Haah. Also manage to meet my laopo and my ai ren. Very qiao! Me and my lao po were inside the hall for super long (3 rounds?) and we went to take photos with the rented gowns haha. No choice our commencement date dont match. Signed up for this photo package for $200. Broke. The uncle introducing us the thing was very nice and comical. I even intro my ai ren to sign up a package with him~ Lol. Then further on there was another studio promoting too -- the lady damn funny. We said we already sign up for a package le and she say "never mind, can cancel one mah" lol. Then when we walked back to find my ai ren & her friend she say "going back to cancel ah" haha. Cute.



Then went for cashless last shot as the playgirl - because I said I went to the shot just for fun - so I just zuo bo there and take a lot of pictures.

Boo!

Sadako!

Taken on a self timer with Aik Hoe - since we are the one always taking photos, we must take some of ourselves too!

Kate busy putting make-up for uncle while I pose for photos lol. Oh and met En Dian (e guy beside me) who was from my hall last time too.. he is here as an extra. So qiao.

I m too free.. Haha. Priscilla (behind me left) is pretty - she is acting as the receptionist! And Xuejin (bhind me right) went to KU for exchange one year later than me. 안녕하세요!


All in all the trip back to NUS is fun ^^~

Getting camera angle right. BK as the "kowtow" model~


Melinda, who is the director, trying to get the makeup to look the same as previous shoots. (End up Kate came and that was accomplished in minutes while Melinda spent like half hour? Haha~)


My job as a conti girl.. Taking down all the timings~


Liuhang as the sound man.


Shing Kai acting as ah beng!

More photos here ^^.

CDS band concert that ended up as a Monopoly madness with cartels and all sort of alliances form which include ostracizing some people from the cartels too. Lol. The limited photos taken on my phone - before realising that Eunice actually brought a a REAL CAMERA (I think I should get one soon.. its been like half a year since the camera spoilt and somehow I managed to survive with the lousy phone camera.)

Monopoly while being distracted by the movie 《东成西就》. Food + Monopoly + TV = Good chilling out :P Yes we should do this more often! So sad tt hideout cafe 倒闭! We like only went there once?!

BH & Yan totally enjoying the lame movie on TV. We put a stop to monopoly because of the show. Lol.

YB finished the keropok! :X

After dinner we shifted the Monopoly base to BH room. Haha. Alan & YB seriously strategizing their next move. Lol.

Others not seen in the photo includes Eunice, Drey, Me, Jia & WL. Where is JF and TianHao etc??!! Esp Tianhao.. super long nv see him le.

Misc photos~Fresh crabs! Caught by my Dad mmm :P

MMM :P I ate part of one of them on Sunday night :X

Evening time.. Taking a walk back from 27 bus stop instead of taking 293 back after work. Healthy lifestyle!


Lalala ^^ Almost home sweet home~

Speaking of healthy lifestyle, I will be going for the Anlene Orchard Mile this sunday, which is also Father's Day, with my sister. Amazing right? My bib no is 3459. I think I will like probably walk finish the whole thing. Since I haven't run for ages. Ok I just realise its only like one mile = 1.6km haha should be ok bah lol~ I think I have walked that distance for many times before already since I normally think its a waste of $$ to take transport from Orchard to Dhoby Ghaut and vice versa. In fact I have ever walked from Orchard to Bugis to Suntec before too. Keke. Anyway also going for the Walk for our Children 2008 in July, this one is 3km though :). So healthy this year. Heh and Minghui I want our cycling trip soon and hopefully the weather forecast will be sunny instead of rainy next time round!

To end off.. I saw this today:

Amusing. The things we need to be reminded of.

Is there a term for the 'study of love'?

There is a word 'erotology' which is defined as "the 'science' of love". This is a rarely used word, except in anthropology, where it is found slightly more often. This term really relates to the study of sexual activity and techniques rather than to the study of love itself. The only word this editor can think of for that is 'marriage'!

No Time to Fluff!

Last week has been HECTIC. BEWARE LONG POST AHEAD.

Wed - Went to find where on earth is Emily Hill after work . (It's hidden in the city area, but a relatively good place to chill ^^). Learnt about the sound system. Had rochor tau huay with Jing Wen & Jasmine~

Thurs - Did sound operator for AIC at Emily Hill (I took leave to do this.. how wonderful lol). Reporting time was like 8am. *Yawn* Work also I dont need to wake that early. Ah but got Stan Lai talk! :P The highlight of the day.

Stan Lai speaking. Taken from my view at the sound console, behind the screen so sian.

I was controlling this sound console~ My 1st time doing sound~ Basically still cant differentiate much on the high, mid and low tones.. to me they sound the same no matter how I adjust?

Hee. Also see famous people like Yann Yann and Peter Sau and other big shots in theatre.. Oh btw AIC = Asian Intercultural Conference organised by Theatre Training & Research Programme (TTRP) . Another highlight of the day - FREE dimsum by Ding Tai Fung~ Lol they are the sponsor and the chef especially come and make the dimsum.

Me with my dimsum.. its some prawn thingy mmm~

After kouping the dimsum, I went off the meet Yonghui, Yunyi and Yongli at music dreamer aka 爱情海~ The singers are quite good. I like Yuxuan the best ^^ & I think Weiquan is the cutest of all guys that night. And he sang the song I dedicate. Guess what song?!~ Haha its 爱拼才会赢! The gentler version though~ Sadly he dont have the Hokkien say, though Yongli say he normally not like that one. Really enjoyed just random chatting and hearing the songs and listening to the singers crap. But one word of advice is to have dinner before you go. The drinks are :X too. But no choice have to order. Oh & they still hang Daniel Chan as the poster over there! Lol~ :) Ah I think maybe next time will go hear Ric (former 梦飞船团员) and his wife 蔡礼莲 sing~

With only a phone camera.. this is the best i can come up with. Yes we were sitting quite far back~

Fri - Work. Basically running around doing errands. Lol but manage to meet up with HT in the midst of all these. *Muacks* But before meeting her I got pulled by this irritating girl selling facial packages. And she just refused to let me go! I was like let me consider and then I will come back if I want to. Then she simply just keeps on talking even though I said I was meeting somebody. -_-! In the end I had to put $2 deposit just to make her let me go. Dont think I am ever going back. Then went to watch Hamlet Machine by TTRP at night. Chim show totally don't understand. Mmm. But I think the setting quite cool. Old canteen transformed into a stage! Makes the whole stage seems very flexible and not so rigid. Lol and lots of mosquitoes coils around. Smoke effect! Ah then drinks at night + dimsum & spicy mcnuggets supper and shopping at Mustafa.

Chill out at Emily Hill~ Thanks CC for the drink though I am not part of the crew and have rejected her show :X

Vodka Sprite. My face super red after this. Apparently its not my blood circulation that is good but rather my liver do not have the enzymes to break down certain chemicals in the drink. So its actually not a good sign.

I think we shopped till 2.30am and I bought "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" DVD. The cab fare back is equivalent to the price of the DVD though. :P

Sat - Fingergun Fighting! Yes I was there. The crazy bunch of people. Went with Cheryl and her friend Yao Hui.

This is basically a Flash mob
whats a Flash mob ?

"A flash mob is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief period of time, then quickly disperse. "
Inspired by:



The mission was meant to be held at Raffles Place where the huge grass patch is, but the stupid rain started pouring heavily with no signs of stopping so they changed the venue to Esplanade underground. We were split into teams and some acted a few mini scenes.

The rules~
  1. Each person 20 bullets. When the bullets finish, you die.
  2. But you cannot die suddenly. Have to make sure someone's shooting at you lar.
  3. Only use "bang bang" or "chik chik bang bang". NEVER ever mention the word BOMB.
  4. Do not obstruct the pathway when you die. So make sure you stagger a bit and get yourself out of the way before dying. (More for Raffles Place)
  5. The fingergun fighting ends when the SWAT team comes in, kills everyone left standing and says "mission accomplished". Get up and leave. Do not cheer. Just walk away.
Actually when they said "Mission Accomplished" it was not so obvious, so a lot of people were still lying there. Lol Yao Hui was one of them. Me and Cheryl waited for some time before he came out. Lolz.

I love this mission. But its like over in a few seconds to me. The place was too huge and too lil of us. I think I shoot less than 20 bullets before I died. Cos almost everyone else was dead already. So I took a shot at someone and someone took a shot at me and we both went down together. Shortly after the mission was done. I saw Cheryl walking by me before I knew it was really over over. Haaha. I heard that a few girls practicing dance there screamed in shock. And I saw a guy on skateboard join in the fun by shooting too. Many people just stood by the escalator and watched. Was super high after that~

The Singapore Version (Not the official version. I am waiting for that!) - Spot me in the video! I have like one second of fame? :



Wanna join? Join Mission:SG ^^


Agent Code: Guy with Green Weird Plushie / Stuff Toy!!. >_<>

Taking photo at the Esplanade while waiting for the rest of the secret agents.



Me and Cheryl

The after party. Hmm but not very high cos I think most of us there dont really drink or party? I dint stay long. So Cheryl the only thing you missed was a group photo. Haha~

Robert (a NS guy we met there), Yao Hui & Me~

Had dinner with some of the guys at BK. Then chatted with them who thought I looked very young and dont believe that I am 23. -_-! Oh and Cheryl, the super young guy we tot was sec2 is actually like 17 already :X Pot calling the kettle black cos he's also one of them who don't believe I 23 already~ Then I went home and slept at like 8.30pm till 6.30am the next morning.

Sun - Sound operator again. ZzzZzz 8am again but I shouldnt have gone so early because basically I was the only two that early. Stoned for quite some time after set up for the in-charge to come in. Oooh but so good Xiangbin they all bought Rochor tau huay and 油条 for me, though I only had time to eat it after the conference cos the break was too short. Conference ended late and the in-charge was expecting me to help her strike but I told her I got something on. Besides I dont even know how to strike sound equipment lor. Then she immediately called Jasmine (the other sound op who was helping to strike Hamletmachine) for help. -_-! Never hear before sound ops need to strike one. & besides Jasmine was kind enough to help her setup already when the equipment is not even ours. Bleh anw helped her keep the mics before rushing off to Bedok Reservoir to meet my sister and her friends for a Forest Adventure!

Lol this was quite fun. Except for this angmoh who thinks he's a big shot and keep hurrying us. IRRITATING.


(Stock Image) The toughest black stage. I took super long to cross this.

And the freefall spidey web thingy was violent. Hit the net and I actually went backward. The ladders are also diff to climb and every station starts with that! But I am quite fine with the rest though. Haah considering that I am one who dont really exercise.


(Stock image) I never once landed on my feet after doing the flyingfox. -_-! All 4 times I landed on my butt and twice my shoes came off.

Dont mind going back there, though its a lil pricey. Lol the next time I will bring the camera with me. Now all the photos taken are with my sister or her friends~

Mon - Went off for a film screening @ Substation after work (Running around in town for some errands and waiting for a print job to be done - seriously I could have done better than her sub-quality rushed out job. She promised it done by Fri night and still cant deliver on Mon morning and I had to wait more than 4 hours for her. Conclusion: Never go back to that shop again. Don't promise things you cant do. And her charges are not cheap too). Anyway the films were pretty good. I like the documentary style one. The animation one was good but I think not enough impact. The other one a lot of people feel they cant connect with it due to the disconnected exaggerated style was pretty ok in my eyes too, it's just a style the director choses and I think there's nothing wrong with that. It's been long since I go to a film screening with director's Q & As. Basically going there was to support BK my nuSTUDIOS senior~ Then after the screening went for TTPVP's meeting at NAFA TCC. Though I am not under the committee, they needed help for the retreat as most of the comm members are away. So I just go and see what I can help lor. Which means I have to go for the retreat (super freaking far at Bukit Batok) but I think it will be fun lar.

Tue - Hmm got called in last minute for this client's talk at Bugis. The talk ended at like 5pm so I decided to be unlazy and go drop by Cashless production. Melinda's the director :) Lol I got lost going there though. Apparently I tot I had to just keep walking straight from the MRT, so I walk and walk cnt find the place.. u-turn back from another place and find myself at Geylang -_- Can see and smell all the tempting durians. End up I realised I had walked this one super big round just because I miss a turn! Anw was just intending to meet and catch up with some familiar faces since I MIA for very long from nuSTUDIOS. In the end I end up helping as the contigirl (continuity girl who needs to jot down all the timecode and description like NG or very good for the shots)~ So I stayed all the way till the filming ended which was I think 12.15am. By the time we packed up and had supper and cab back home it was already 2am. Yawn. & of course I went straight to sleep. But I realised I miss production days. A bit regret didn't really get involve in productions. Somehow always vv busy during holidays. Anyw I think SK was totally crazy yesterday and his sweaty tower is damn disgusting. Haha. Great to see Liu Hang, Melinda, Derek, Jian, Aik Hoe (the ultimate stoned expressions), Kate,BK, SK and new members/talents too~ I peifu Jian who is the DP for this show to stay till so late when he got internship at 8.45sm! And the filming continues on the whole of this week. He was like totally exhausted. I cant even really pull myself up at 10am lor. :X

Wed - Ah I finally stayed home. Doing... nothing? Shit. Ok when I dont have time, I complain. When I have time I procrastinate. Grr. Suppose to get this proposal out, but I havent really started on it though presentation next week? So dead. But no motivation to get started and somemore I can still be blogging here. Also dont know the whole day what I was doing man.

xxx

I think I have a tendency to pamper myself these day and spend $$. Even though I am so underpaid. I guess this is call retail/food therapy. I seemed to be going for more Arts stuff too~

And I have been going out like so many days that I miss just lazing around at home. Ah but my calendar seemed to be packed. MmmMmmmZzzZzz.. So packed that I havent have time to fluff or make siggys. The current queue count is like 16 in line. OMG so dead. Dont know if I can ever find time for them. :X

There is so many things I wanna do. But I feel like lazing around too. No time!

Meeting Wendy tmr or rather today evening. Then working for DC on Sat night. Sun night with CDs? Need to do some housework soon. The house is in a mess again.

OMG blogging takes up a lot of time too.

Randomness.
