Rest in peace

An ex-university course mate of mine passed away today.

I don’t know what to say.

Although we were not close, we spoke a couple of times and I remembered him as the entertainer back in school. He loved to perform and he was good at it. But now it seems that beneath all that showmanship and smiles, he was a troubled man.
Perhaps he was driven to desperate measures, perhaps it was an accident.
I would never know and don’t want to guess.
As the his life drained its colour away, I hope he finds what he had always been seeking.

Rest in peace.

感觉

今天“老爸”买了豆沙饼，“婆婆”煮了红豆汤，我们在厂里好像迷你野餐！好幸福哦！还有我今天才发现原来我们餐厅的kopi-o还蛮好喝的！可能是冷的关系吧！

记得有一天我的朋友问我最喜欢喝什么咖啡，我就说cappuccino。他就跟我分析，其实人会喜欢一种饮料跟那个饮料本身的品质无关。而是当我们在享用那个饮料的时候所处在的环境，当时的心情和饮料对五官的抨击。想想他说的也不是没理。因为要我说为什么会提名cappuccino而不是mocha or expresso,我也答不上。反正就是一种感觉。就好像我现在喝咖啡不喜欢加糖了，那跟口感无关，而是因为朋友的影响！以前总是很理所当然的放糖，渐渐变成了习惯，现在才发现苦咖啡在舌后的甜蜜。

我可能从今以后会对新传媒餐厅的kopi-o 情有独中，因为有种雪中送炭的感觉。

Daisies Inspired

Hihi all my beloved 🙂 *HUGS*
Sorry I haven’t been updating my blog in a while. Haven’t got many pictures to post because there is less room for distractions in studio, so we tend to get more work done quickly. Plus, the show is coming to an end soon! I always have mixed feelings when this happens, because there is the relief of finishing a project, and also the apprehension of what comes next. I’ll have another project immediately after this, which will take me through all the way to November. It’s a long project but my role isn’t very heavy so I should be able to find some time to rest in between.

Many of you asked about my illness, so sweet of you all. *muak* I’m all recovered and I feel ok, but my nose is blocked, so I sound terribly nasal. Filming in studio is very monotonous because it’s always script read, camera rehearsal, actual take, cut to next scene, script read, cameral rehearsal, actual take and so on… But it is only with monotony will we be able to appreciate the colourful life we have otherwise. I found this picture on the Internet and it is of one of my favourite flowers. Even in the face of rain, it sparkles and smiles. That’s my inspiration.

FUN

这场戏特别好拍，因为我们大家都笑到掉牙。
就连导演在楼上也忍不住笑了起来。你看我们这么鬼马的表情就知道了。

我和阿莲的烛光晚餐。。。

硬硬的饭，冷冷的菜和沙丁鱼。
还蛮好吃的。：）

Sabotaged!

我觉得他们好可爱，好像在打苍蝇一样。
剧情是说他们要来放火烧我的家，那我就和婆婆还有阿莲一起射弹珠。
哈哈！！

JJ

我好喜欢JJ的新歌唱《杀手》！！好有神秘感。他的MV也真的让我更喜欢他的这首歌。
他在编曲上的中西合拼真的让我耳目一新，好有创意。希望有机会能跟他合作。

Marilyn Monroe

I was watching a programme on cable in studio yesterday while waiting for my turn on set that was talking about the history of Hollywood. I was completely mesmerised by the snippets of movies Marilyn Monroe used to star in. She was gorgeous and glorious in her time, but her private life was in a mess. She grew up in foster homes with no parental love, got married at 16, then divorced and set her sights at becoming an actress. All the marriages she subsequently had, failed and she eventually died from sleeping pill overdose on her 36th birthday.

Often, we pass judgement based on what we see on the surface, choosing to believe that our eyes won’t deceive us. But how much do we really know? Beneath that fame, sex appeal and womanly allure, she was just like any other girl who had her own issues to deal with.

I don’t know much about her, and I’m not sure anyone really does, but from the bit of Googling and Youtubing I did, I have newfound respect for this legend.

This is her song “Diamonds Are a Girl’s Best Friend” and after watching this, and Kylie Minogue’s version, I must say, Marilyn’s cooing still moves me.

Still Sick

谢谢大家的慰问和鼓励！我最近都没有机会看自己的戏，不过拍完后会找机会看看，才能够明白一些好心人给的评语。
我的病还没有完全好，现在鼻音很重。厂里很冷，所以也没有太大的帮助。不过大家都还蛮体谅我的，所以我非常感激。我已经看了医生，也很定时的吃药，现在就只能一天过一天，让身体和病菌作战。有在恢复当中，所以不要太担心啦！

Thank you all so much for your care and concern, luv ya all!
*muak*

一家人

这是我的一家人。戏外看来还蛮幸福美满的，爸爸长的高大威猛，妈妈是绝世美女。

但是戏内呢。。。

这是今天在厂里拍的。监制亲自下来拍开头的画面。
我和老爸是不是有黑帮的感觉呢？

这是我和妈妈在戏里最亲热的镜头了。
她是武林高手，所以我在这里被她制服。
你们放心，拍的时候没有真的用力，只是要演的好像很痛。

感化院

哈哈，终于能有一点点的时间下载照片。我的储存卡都快爆满了！
对不起哦，让你们久等了。不过人家都说好的东西是值得等的啦！哈哈！
照片好不好不是我决定的，不过还是希望不会让你们失望。

这是我戏里面十六岁被关在感化院的造型。头发好像剪短了是不是？
其实没有，只是发型师很巧妙的把我的“金尾巴”收起来，厉害吧！
如果没有化妆间的精英，我们也难有这么多变化的造型。

这场戏是在很ulu的地方拍的，而且夜深人静，我还在其中一个房间大展歌喉，哈哈！就是因为没人听，才敢唱。

我跑了好多次，因为是说我当晚逃跑的剧情。

还蛮好玩的。
