Tea at Ministry of Foreign Affairs

It was a privilege to be invited to the Minister’s office for tea. I know it sounds almost like there’s a double-entendre , because back in school, “You are going to have tea with the principal” usually means you’re in trouble for either misbehaving or failing of exams. But no, I wasn’t in any trouble, and there was not only tea served in pretty delicate china, there were curry puffs too.

I learnt from somewhere that when you serve tea to the English, you ask if they would like lemon or milk. I guess in Singapore, it would be “Kosong”, “O” or “Tarik”?

I’m more of a coffee drinker but if I were to have tea, I like mine with milk. The “Tarik” kind. Not that I’m complaining though, just that I come to realise that there are myths surrounding politicians like there are surrounding celebrities. And perhaps in many ways we are similar.

How?

I guess that’ll take another tea session to find out.

Personal secretary to Minister. I hope I didn't get this wrong. Otherwise, please leave me a comment and I will make the amendments. Oops.

Celebrity Ang Pow Golf Challenge 08

昨天 （Feb 28）很开心第一次下场打十八个洞。前天晚上的我是又兴奋，又害怕。担心自己因为对规矩不是很熟悉，会气坏队友，或耽误后面的一组。打不好是理所当然的，所以那个我还不太在意。不过，主办这项活动的天文大哥，Daddy，和智诚都很鼓励我，一直叫我不用担心，玩玩就好，不会有问题的。到了场地，也有很多人一直在旁引导我，所以就没那么害怕了，真的很享受！

高尔夫球是个很容易上瘾的运动，而且不只是体能的挑战，也是精神的考验。当初我对这项运动感到很好奇。怎么打高尔夫球的人都对它如此意乱情迷？只不过是打那小小的球，真闷！所以我就很想学，不想因为我的无知乱下定论。结果在Daddy的大力鼓励下，我请教了Pro，然后就“中毒” 了。不过这还是很各人的感受，因为不是每个人会喜欢，或对它有兴趣。我很感激Daddy推我去学，要不然我就不会找到人生的其中一大乐趣。

参与的艺人 －－ （后排左到右）姚文隆，叶世品，梁田叔，陈天文，苏智诚。（前排左到右）宋怡霏，洪慧芳，林里嫔, 我, 钟丽卿

下场时很专注所以没什么拍照。天气很热，晒到我都黑了，不过风景很美。这也是打高尔夫球的乐趣，可以欣赏漂亮的风景。

我们这组。有慧芳姐引导我，不那么怕了！这两位男士 （Terence and Kenny）也很有耐心，对我很好，所以没有压力。

天文大哥在晚宴上的小演讲。

Daddy 拍戏，不能打球，所以晚上才来吃饭。

慧芳姐和我。还好有她在，要不然我一定blur blur！

梁田叔昨天拿到公民权，所以为他庆祝。

昨天也是其他两位的生日，所以就一起许愿吹蜡烛。

礼物

 

I wanted to share this piece of good news with everyone, but it seems like many of you knew it already!

I’m really happy and grateful to those who love Chun Chun and daddy! It’s a wonderful gift. 🙂

Recently I’ve been busy preparing for my new drama which starts in early November, and this time the role is very challenging, so I need to spend a bit more time reading the scripts and understanding the character, so it’s not that I’ve forgotten all of you ok?

Lastly, thank you all so much for the kind words, encouragement and support.

Love ya all! *muak*

原来你们都知道了！消息这么快！
本来才刚刚想与大家分享这个好消息。
好开心哦！谢谢大家对纯纯和 Daddy 的支持！
最近在忙着新戏的筹备，角色很有挑战性，所以会花很多时间看稿，揣摩角色。
我并不是把大家忘了哦，只是这部新戏很快就要开拍了，所以不能临时抱佛脚。
再聊吧！谢谢你们的祝福，能入围已经很开心了！

*HUGS TO ALL*

This digital imaging is done by Nat, thank you!!

We were bored on the upper deck while the rest were filming in the cabin, so we fooled around with some funny pictures and thought it’d be fun to put them together like that. And since Nat is very Photoshop savvy, he agreed to do it!

Have a good laugh.

Oh and in case you can’t see cos’ it’s too small, that is me, in my wet suit, sticking my tongue at Nat!
