went 2 school 2 do shooting today. we r left with one more day of shooting! yipee!! our actors were real farnie today & they kept making us laugh even though there were no lines for the script..

this time shooting seemed much easier maybe cos everything was done in school n we were more familiar with the equipment. its realli fun 2 shoot but all the postproduction work can be realli scary.

SIP briefing this friday. i am stil wondering where should i head to. i like both TV & journalism. well i can do both which is TV journalism. ha.

but well, i noe marketing is kinda out for me now. imean, i did think mktg was interesting in yr1 but i'd figure out i will enjoy TV & journalism more. But i alws feel less competent when i compare myself 2 the rest of the CMMers. Always feel tat their English is much more powderful than me.

Bt i am thankful for the numerous opportunities tat have been given 2 me. i really thank God tat he just provides it for me though i dun noe how much of it will really help me in my future career. there have been so many chances... n i just feel so blessed.

On one hand, i feel passionate about the media. but on the other hand, i think i have other callings as well like counselling & social work. & i wanna work after i graduate but my parents want me 2 continue studying.

i thought i could like take my own sweet time 2 think thru all these but well, sem2 is abt to end soon! so yeah.. things r kinda moving realli fast!

What is love?

I noe VDay is stil sometime away but well some chat with my good fren just led me 2 do some thinking.

when someone says "I love ya", wad does it really mean? When they tell you they will love you forever, how can they say tat when they dun even noe whether they will live til d next hr?

how can we blantantly lie to the ones tat we love so much?

how can we just believe everything tat the other one says? when at times, we noe its just so not true.

how can some guys who have a steady girlfriend still get very close to another girl?

Do relationships also go thru the U curve? like when they first start, everything is exciting. then later they find everything so awful.. its either they run away at tis pt or they just continue on and persevere. n things might work out fine for ya.

Do u noe if the one u meet now is the one? Well, prob is.. everytime we meet someone, we wil tink he's the one or she's the one. But tat one might end up marrying someone else...

So wad exactly is love? What is true love?
Something for ya to think about.

I am so glad Cross cultural paper is over!

junbin, ally, shallyn, cheok & me went down to laselle-SIA to view a free art exhibition. Well, it was qt an adventure! becos we wanted 2 save $$ & ended up walkin very long n rnd abt in bedok But in d end, we stil managed to take 12 down to goodman road!haa...

Met up with James too~ Ha..he stayed with us to see the exhibition and i think he kinda enjoyed our company yeh.. after d exhibition, he brought us arnd to see his school which looks really old! i am so thankful for TP! but anyway, its the last year they r gonna be dere. so kinda feel privileged to be there 2 see the place. it looks kinda arty-farty but also very cosy feeling.

after that we went down 2 eat katong laksa n i was shocked at how much gravy junbin was slurping down! the laksa is supposed 2 be the most famous one arnd but somehow i dun find it very special. ha. oopz. but its nice la.

well, tmr is gonna be editing day & start of writing all the papers. phew, i am just glad that we managed to go n see the exhibition today. it was qt an eye-opener for all of us. ha..

Thursday, January 06, 2005

decided that this entry will be totally cmm-less. since things r really qt messy at the moment.

i finally decided that i need some system for my quiet time with God. so well, i am back at reading thru Genesis for this whole month. even though i have read it before, i guess following the guidebook that had the dates wil be a good way to organise my readings.

n yes, i need 2 start memorising scriptures. i hope i can! my memory alwas fails me.

called up mandy today n realised she has an orientation campfire tmr for sec ones. hope she likes her new school. will be meeting her up on sat. its amazing tat now i am shepherding her becos almost 16 years ago, it was her mum who first brought me to church. my auntie has always been very concerned abt her nieces & nephews salvation. n i am really greatful for wad she had done in my life.

God truly blesses his people. Someone she used to guide & lead is now helping her child to grow! :)

i just realised i will be turning 22 in a month's time. sometime before CNY. 2nd feb 2 be exact. the thought is kinda scary. 21 was exciting but 22 sounds .... mature. i am nt sure if i am up 2 it yet. ha

Thank God today pretty good day for me...

1. Finished shooting entire singlecam drama! So now its left with postproduction.
2. Managed to type 3/4 of the chinese stoppress article within an hr.. haa
3. Prepared for my arts appreciation presentation
4. did my corporate video proposal though its not fantastic

& definitely many more stuff...to tank God for.

noe many people r very stressed now & alot of relationships r going thru tension now..but lets all be patient with one another k? we really need to learn to give at times.

i noe i lack a lot of patience so i must keep working on it.

Monday, January 03, 2005

feel quite overwhelmed by the amount of workload that has been given this sem. its really qt crazy, considering tat we have less weeks bt still the same amount of work.

i haven really started on all, but i noe once i get going... its gonna be scary.

mid term tests r coming up soon & our mid term break. and the school students have just started day 1 of school.

poly life is weird.

n i met up with my 3 boyfriends today!


oopz. haa, well actually daniel(the one in the middle)is entering army on friday, so thought of meeting up together b4 his enlistment 2 kinda catch up with him.

n i ended up giving him my book which i havent read finished. haa...but well, i think he needs the spiritual guide more than me cos army is really gonna be very tough.

well its time 2 get back 2 work again.

jiayou everyone.

the world ushered in the new year on a solemn mood. even if there were voices of rejoice, many were saddened by the tsunami disaster tat happened just a week before 2005 entered.

seeing the vivid images of the tragedy further emphasized the seriousness of this incident. the personal stories published tugged the strings of readers, including me as we look upon this event with mixed emotions.

how do u feel?

for me, sadness engulfed me. many moments, i almost teared when i saw wad happened. the victims who died instantly, with their hands stil hanging in mid air. the parents crying at the loss of their children. the homes & hotels all destroyed by the killer waves.

but as i was feeling sad, my fren told me that there was a difference bw emphathy & symphathy. many people could look on & say "poor thing" but seriously life just seems to go on. which is why many stil could go on with New year countdowns & celebrations.

but thankfully there r stil many others who wanna shower these people with their love. the donations & amount collected has certainly encouraged me. seeing how our leader responded to the situation make me feel proud to be a Singaporean in certain ways.

i noe i also have 2 do my part. if i could, i will really wanna go down & help those people. anithing will do. digging thru the corpses, labelling 'em. anything, just to put these pple back on feet again. but i cun, so i initiated collecting a special fund tdae in church. then i will bring the cheque down tmr to SPH.

but whatever help i can give is limited, its the Lord who will provide them with all their needs.

Happy New Year to all!
