A new week

A new week has begun.

While other CMM interns get to see Utt, Denise Keller, Christopher Lee, Fann Wong blah blah, i got to meet Hi-5 today! Ha. Kathleen is really pretty! And she smiles a lot.. Shooting was definitely much easier today cos the environment was more controlled.

**

Met up with Bin and rest today for dinner. Then went Esplanade to listen to Cheok talk rubbish, sing songs with amended-lyrics and face as much embarrassment as we would have.

Gotta sleep. Very tired.

Makan Makan!

Ha.. okay, just wanted 2 put up some pictures here cos the blog looks really boring ha. anyway, I had ThaiExpress with mum for dinner. yummy tom yam soup and noodles!

Week 1 of work is over! And the most exciting part of the week has to be watching the Sesame Street cartoons! Call me childish or what.. but it just brings back fond childhood memories.

Have a great weekend folks!

Day 02

Went to work slightly later, then set off to Compassvale Primary to shoot some stuff for Racial Harmony Day. It was like reliving the days of single-cam except that i was more of AP instead of director on the set.

Realised that my colleague Julane stays in Hougang and was from the same primary school as me! Since she's only 3 years older than me, we must have been in the same session before. World is really small man, though i cun remember much of her. Ha.

Shooting was pretty tough cos we had to fight off the crowds, sounds of aeroplanes and whatnots. In the end, we only had lunch at 4pm.

Still trying to blend into the work place now. I think I am still pretty quiet(for once). At lunch, most of the time I am just listening. But well, hopefully in months to come, can get to know my colleagues better.

1st day of work

Well, first day of work was pretty cool as i met my colleagues and supervisors who briefed me on my job scope & orientated me arnd the building.

The colleagues that went with me for lunch were pretty young, mainly those in their 20s.

After lunch, thought there wasnt much to do but in the end, one of the editors asked me to help her come up with some scripts for Arts Central & also select some good shots from this series of documentaries.

That kept me quite busy till about 6pm. Hanged around a while, wanted to wait to say "bye" to supervisor properly but didnt see her in sight for quite a while, so left a note on her table.

Tmr will be pretty exciting cos I am gonna follow the producer for shoots!

From the sounds of it, I think I will learning quite a lot of stuff from this internship. Though it's gonna be hard work, I am thankful for whatever opportunities I can learn.

Today

Did quite a bit stuff today. Friends came over for meeting in morning. Then went to eat KFC with DZ, Fiona & Keith Ong.

Then they wanted 2 watch movie, so we headed down to Keith's place in Yishun. It was a pretty long walk but his place was very beautifully decorated. Very country-styled and his room looks quite cosy too.

We watched The Interpreter and my.. Nicole Kidman is so georgous! And I love Sean Penn! Anyway just when we were watching the last 15 min of the show..suddenly the player stopped!

Keith's DVD player was getting abit burned.

Alamak. I had to rush down to Pastor's place so well, no choice had to leave earlier. Really had fun getting 2 noe them better. Though its quite sad that i wun be seeing them so regularly. =(

****

It's only a few more hours to official SIP. Am pretty nervous actually cos i am kinda alone though Malar's in the same building but she's in a different department.

Kinda like dunno what to expect, who i will meet? Will my colleagues be nice? What is my boss like?

BUt i guess i will learn to put all this anxiety into God's hands and not be afraid. Since he has placed me there. I believe it will be a great place to grow and learn.

That's abt it. Time 2 sleep. More updates tmr =)

Random thoughts

Okay, I noe this is a silly question.

But how hairy are you?

You see, i have very short & fine hairs on my arms & legs which i believe, contributes greatly to me feelin very cold easily. and also straying fingers that run down my hands saying "whee.. very smooth"

Thankfully, it's only restricted to jie mei mens who do that.

**

Brother Yuhui has already flown to Beijing. And he's already there. But thanks to the advancement of technology, i managed to chat to him over MSN. Which makes it seem like he din leave Singapore at all.

I wanna go China again, but something really meaningful so as to absorb the culture & interact with the people. not just any sightseeing tours.

**

Uncle Bern will be flying off to Cambodia in a few hrs time. We have promised to snail mail him though Ally suggests writing, scan into comp & send via MSN. Ha

I wanna go Cambodia too. that will add on to my addition of the Asian countries i wanna visit.

Man, i should just join my friends & cousins to apply for air stewardess position.

I am quite sure i qualify for the height.
But first, i need a major makeover. Ha Ha.

Me

Artistic? Narcissistic? You decide.

Thanks JB for the unplanned shot taken at Bedok Macs.

The skies were purple

I was on bus 72, on my way home from skol when i observed the evening skies to be of a different color.

The blue skies & the orange rays of the sun blended into an awesome purplish shade.

It was as if God had picked up his paintbrush and painted the skies in this manner.

I stand amazed at how God beautifies his creation. =)

RSI

This was quite a while ago.

But i am still very amused by the interviewee who said that learning French can help him interact better with frenchmen.

Btw, i am the 4th interviewee that spoke on hawker food & whatnots.

A heart set to flutter

A heart set to flutter.
What meant u by that?
Is it a confession?
A teasing?
A joke?
A hint?

Fool not with my heart,
For its fragility is beyond your comprehension.
Play not with my thoughts,
let not my heart capture nothingness.

Bless me with only kind words.
With only loving acts.
Be it not that my heart should flutter once more.

For my pal...

I met up with my JC pal Feng tonite. It was really great talking to her about updates in our lives, career paths & all.

Even though we hardly meet, whenever we meet, there's so much 2 share & talk. I mean in terms of character & interests, we r quite different but yet sometimes there's just this connection between us tat has not ceased since our JC days.

& she's really one fren tat i have been keeping close contact with in the past years. I thank God for her & i really hope i can be there more for her.

Feng, if u r reading this, just wanna thank u for being such a great pal these yrs & for nt giving up on this frenship. I really hope we can still like meet up at Hougang Pt often when we start work... get married & settle down in future. Ha ha

take care & please just drop me a call or anithing when u need someone to talk to k?

Act blur

I heard what you said.

But i act blur only.

Haha.

Behind time?

I feel behind time.

I remember what an older sister told me before. "When your friends start to graduate from university & all, you might start to think about everything and wonder why you are not one of them. & you will get affected again."

I guess i am sorta feeling a tiny weeny part of it.

Cos the time has come where my st nicks frens are all graduating or doing their last year of their honors. & whenever i look at my TP peers who r younger than me, i often envy the fact that they r on pace with most of the pple arnd them.

Well, of cos i am not alone. AND i am really enjoying life now! (in case this is an entry to lament on my unhappiness)

And i am quite sure God had a purpose and plan for everything in my life. The paths that i walked & took led me to you, you & you! The people, the events & the happenings! The tings that i have learnt. .. countless

I really wouldnt wanna trade all these for that. But well, if i dint walk this path, how would i know that all these will happen?

Behind time? Then again, maybe not =)

Random thoughts

My entries lack emotions.

I am tired but there r still stuff 2 be done.

Why are the holidays ending so soon? Booo

Kids Central here i come....

Meeting the princess

With the increase of movie tix prices, I have found a new place to watch movies.

It's cheap and rather accessible.

For the price of one weekend movie at other cinemas, u can catch 2 weekday shows cos it's only $5.

Bedok Princess here I come.

Blue skies!

Was out today in the blazing sun, but looking up at the blue skies really made me so happy!

It was at that moment i wished i had a camera with me.

It's fun taking fotos with digi-cam but it really makes u very lazy, and other than playing arnd with compositions/angles, i cun 2 do much. (Unless i upgrade my digi-cam)

I really hope i can get my own SLR someday. The whole idea of shooting on film is so cool, cos u really need 2 plan your shots well. BUt it's exciting when the shots come out beyond your expectations.

=)
