[ Back To The Past. ]

Been sometime since I've updated with just ramblings.
I liked what I did back when I just started out this blog.
It wasn't for advertorials, hell, it wasn't even for fame or the money.
It was purely because I did it for the sake of saving my sanity.

It was hard enough as it is to be teacher's pet back in the secondary school days when being ''badass'' was the ''in thing to do''.
I also happen to dislike that stereotypes can do to perceptions others have in one, like being the class monitor means you want to get in the good books of your school teachers and ''polish up their boots''.
Well I guess I can very well say that I've ''been there, done that''.

But you know, some people like myself, really just wanna get on with life without making or causing any troubles.
But god forbid, people like this are troubles-magnet.
I know, very K-drama-ish.
But I wouldn't be here if what was mentioned above weren't true.

So I ask myself, why not speak to myself on somewhere no one knows?
Thus came this virtual space right here.
This is one life story that I'll always look back to when I feel like I'm losing my footing in my own life.
It continuously teaches me to be grateful and always takes me back to square one.
Back to the beginning where I was from.
I like that about this space.

I like that it doesn't judge me like how most people are nowadays.
It listens, takes in all the sorrows, hate, anger, or simply any negative energy I had with me at the start of the blog post and make it all disappear by the end of it.
It calmed me down so many times that I can't recall.
I also like how random it can make me be, jumping from random topics so I can take a look in the future and laugh at myself. :)

I like how it started from nothing.
How I started from nothing.
How I can really place a heart over the left side of my chest and tell myself that ''I've really changed''.
And it make me learn about myself, how I like the changes.
Even if changes of oneself make others disagree with one.

Whether I've changed for myself or for the goods of others or even because that's what life does to us.
I like changes.
I was afraid of it, but not anymore.
And I'm going to continue to change.
Maybe, just maybe.
You should too. :)

[ What's Up? ]

Gotta to do some housekeeping here since I'm seeing tons of spiderwebs around.
Well, I must say that I'm pretty surprise to know that there are still people clicking in to this outdated website here.
For that I thank you, you and you. :)

Wouldn't say I've been busy because for the past week, it was mostly rest for me.
After what seemed like long long long long working days, not that I'm complaining by the way!
I love being occupied by work, hell I love being drowned by it.
It's just that it's kinda hard to stop and slow down the momentum all at once when you've been in it for almost a year!

Yup, 1/5/13 marks my 1st year with MDC.
I love it.
Am in absolutely love with my job!!
They say if you do what you love, you won't need to work a single day and that statement's all true for me.

Yes the long filming hours may require alot of energy and one may whine on and on about what other jobs would suit him/ her better than this. However, in my opinion, what I reaped and is still reaping is something priceless.
Something unattainable if one doesn't have passion to drive it home.

I'm glad my heart and mind is all with my body on this.
Takes courage to look back at where I all before this.
By that I meant my secondary school days.
Days where I wished it could have been better, also days where I won't change a single bit for a million bucks even if I can go back in time;

Because then I wouldn't be who I am today.

Not that I'm anywhere near who I wanna be in my head but hey, it's a start.
A grateful start for me at least.

So the moral of my story so far? 

Dream bigger, aim higher, get closer! ;)

Really!
Oh my, appearing on the newspapers and magazines seems like a dream come true to begin with!

Although the names were captioned wrongly under the wrong person at times. XD

Standing beside Caldecott's 阿姐 of all time in a live show?!

Who knew I'd be endorsing a cosmetic brand internationally?

Never had I imagine appearing on the movie screen as well!

Geez, all these still seem pretty surreal to me...
 
Let what's on your mind become a reality.
And if your fantasy differs from your actuality, work hard and never regret it.
Because in time, you will see that all makes sense to you and me. :)

Good luck and keep dreaming. :)

[ Advertorial - Chereograph Your Own Life! ]

It's been awhile people!

So recently I did a shoot with 健康报 and was told by a reporter that I lost a good amount of weight since he last saw me during my live performance at RWS inconjunction of the 30th drama anniversary.

Boy was I happy to hear that.

But here's the secret to my weight loss.

[ 2013! ]

Oh my god, I know I know.
Been neglecting this space since the start of November.

Don't really know what to update you guys with except that I'm really grateful that a handful of you guys still comes back to this empty visual site of mine.

I'm really excited about my first Channel 8 drama!!
It's #CLIF2!
Will be air every weekday at 9pm from February 18! :D

Am currently filming #96cafe and #志在四方 soon after!

First movie which I can all my own, is coming out in March. ;)

All in all, 2013 will be a really productive year for me!
Hopefully for everyone who is reading this.

Dreams don't come true unless you did everything you can to make it real. :)
HWAITING ALL! :D

[ Reflections. ]

昨天在一个会议中学到了一句话；
艺人艺人异与常人。

我觉得这句话一直留在我脑海里的原因是因为，现在的艺人并不是只要会演戏就行了。
如那是如此，那个人的职业就仅仅是一位演员。
艺人可以是位演员，但是演员却不一定是一名艺人。
Best case scenario 的艺人就是要精通演戏，主持，唱歌，跳舞，懂得至少一种乐器。
几乎是什么都要会就对了。

我本来一直认为我们新加坡艺人 got it easy.
怎么说呢？
在我还没进新传媒之前，所看到的都是非常表面化的。
艺人们每次出现的时，都是漂漂亮亮的，美丽的妆和头发就好像是一生下来就已经拥有了。
可是这并非如此。

说了那么多，其实我想真正表达的是：
当一名出色的艺人是必须经过一番苦功的。
不是你想要，它就自然而然的达成。
妆发得体是要把最好的呈献给所有在观看的观众。
怎么把台词念好是其中一个课题，要怎么说和传达得自然更是一门学问。

虽然我算是不小心的进入演艺圈，可是我真的很幸运。
因为我是一个三分钟热度的人。
不过，你知道吗？
我在新传媒的时间已经有半年了。

虽然工作的准备时间早和长，不过一到片场的我，从来没有那么开心过。
对我而言，工作是一种快乐。
一种我从没想过我会从工作得到的快乐。
在工作的当儿，你会发现自己的极限和能耐，不过那也是让自己进步的元素。
也会有人在旁指指点点，可那只不过是他们不了解你，无须在意或理会。

所以啊，任何的人事物，真的不能只看表面就下定论。：）

(P.S: I'll be in episode 9 of #CodeOfLaw on Channel 5, airing on the 15th of November I'd urge you to watch because not only will that  be my first acting appearance since 《跳浪》, but I feel that I've done my very best of portraying ''Lydia''! XD)
