zzzzzzZZzzzZZ I'm writting only to Kill time.

Gosh.... I'm so sleepy now but I can't sleep. In just one more hour, I have to leave the house and make my way to the isle for holiday...

Only a few things that I almost can't seem to leave behind. First my mousehunt, am I gonna run out of cheese? Yeah 450 Swiss cheese should be more than enough for 3 days. Second thing is, maybe I should bring my laptop along... Last but not least, I have to find ways to kill time for now.... Yeah, one of good way is to type rubbish random thoughts on my blog. LOL I don't even know what I'm typing anymore.

Oh one more thing I gotta kill the next 15 mins so that I can click on the horn of mousehunt again... yeah lame I know... lol

Found another classmate on FB today again. heehee Anyway, I've decided to visit 3 friends that I have neglected after I get back. One appointment has been fixed for next week. Not forgetting gotta meet up with duckie and wolfy too. oh, there's shoot also... And my appointment with the doctor and dentist... Also I promised my nieces an outing. Gosh! Mommy wants to eat out too... Hummm.... At least I'm glad to know I've only 40 mins more to kill here.

Guess I better go double check my bag.... Where is my sunblock?

Bee

I had quite an interesting week. Running around as usual, went for shoot, spending time with my two beautiful nieces, met new people & made new friends, hanging out with friends that I usually hang out with, but still I am feeling bad that I kept on neglecting some old friends like Tommy, Christine and Justina. Oh well in 20 hours , I'm gonna hang out with a long time and super neglected friend in the isle of endless joy and fun for 3 days 2 nights. Okay in short, I'm going for a short holiday with my girlfriend to do some girl thing.

Finally met up and discussed plans with Fai & Robert for my very mini concert. Lots of work to be done. Fai and I had a great time jamming at Robert's hive. Yeah I call it a hive because, I love the surroundings and it is super cosy. The hive is a great hang out place for musicians and photographers. Gosh... I lost count of how many keyboards Robert has. There is even a grand piano in his living room. I did play a tune or two with the grand piano using my "three legged cat"(inferior/lousy) skill. I can't help it but to embarrass myself in front of the masters because its a GRAND PIANO!

I am very thankful that I got some vocal coaching from Robert who was very generous in guiding and giving me pointers I need for the concert. There was also this gentleman named Bill who is very talented. I had a great time laughing at his jokes and sang along as he played the piano. Today I almost wanna drop acting for good and start singing... LOL Of course I'm kidding because I want both my chocolate and vanilla.

Hey! She Needs Help!

Please help this child if you can and if you would in anyway. THANK YOU!

A Mother's Cry
SUNDAY, MAY 10, 2009

I thought over, probably a couple hundreds of times wondering how to write this entry. At the end of the day, I still have no idea what to write.

Truth is when I first saw the email sent by Dr Aung on the amount needed to bring Charmaine to New York for treatment, I was shocked. $350,000 is the upfront deposit. I weren’t sure what currency it was in. Sent Jolene and Charlene a text message, ending the message with “I would give up if it is in USD”.

And of course, the bad news never ends.

$350,000 USD.

Half a million Singapore dollars.

How would I ever be able to raise this amount of sum? How do I convince anyone that Charmaine’s life is worth half a million dollars? I don’t know how. I seriously don’t know how. So many times, I want to give up. I don’t know how to think. I don’t know what to think. I don’t want to think. I don’t dare to think.

A week has passed since I received the email and I know I have already procrastinated a week away and made no progress.

I am brought up to think rationally and weigh my decisions against benefits and cost. Rationally speaking, I know fully well that half a million dollars can be better spent on saving thousands of malnourished kids in Africa than on Charmaine who only has a 40-50% chance of survival even with the antibody in New York.

But Charmaine is my daughter. No amount of money can justify how important she is to me. And Jase. Despite Jase’s young age and maturity, I know fully well that he loves his mei mei just as much as I do.

I would do just about anything to save her. I thought about selling my kidney, being a surrogate mom. They may sound stupid and crazy but my conscience feels so much better with me earning that USD $350,000 because I cannot think of any rational reason to convince you to help me save Charmaine.

I really thought of giving up. Its so much more easier and I am so tired.

I don’t want to think about anything anymore. Its easier just remembering the next doctor’s appointment, the next time for medication, the next time to pay the bills and just things I can do without thinking…

I even avoided Jolene and Charlene for a week because I have no answer for them. Their suggestion to go public and seek for help. My permission to allow them to publicise the materials.

Even as I am typing right now, I don’t exactly know what am I doing. I don’t know what I have decided. I don’t know the consequences of me typing this.

The only thing I know for sure is that should anything happen to Charmaine, I would never be able to forgive myself for not trying to fight for Charmaine when all she has to help her is me.

This is the very reason why I am typing this.

Dear friends, please help Jase and me to save Charmaine.

Thank you.

Double Happiness!

I had organized a gathering with my primary school classmates on 19th July and we are gonna have curry at Apolo Banana Leaf! Wanted to do a buffet party at one of the hotels but I guess it would be a little too formal to break the ice because after all its been so many years since we all sat at the same table.

I've found most of the classmates/schoolmates I remember of from same batch. This is so exciting!! Met up with Audrey Tan again a few days ago and she surprised me with Aileen Neoh who joined us later but I had to rush off to a wedding dinner. ARRGH.. Aileen must have thought I was crazy as I gave her bear hugs twice. LOL

By the way, I'm working on the details of my VERY MINI CONCERT in coming late Sept. Venue has been confirmed. But we haven't set the actual date as we are now into our pre-production stage. The exciting part about my mini concert this year is that we had managed to get a really cool musician to join our team. I'm really looking forward to it!!

Classmates Found!

Its amazing! I've found quite a few long lost primary school classmates the last few days. Audrey Tan, Jessica Leong , Teresa Wang, Alieen Neoh and Huang Shu Ling! I hope to reconnect with more.

Audrey Tan as I mentioned in a few post earlier that she now lives in Kentucky USA and now is back here for a few weeks. Jessica Leong now working as a nurse lives in Canada, married with 2 kids, Teresa Wang still lives here and married with two kids, as for the rest I haven't actually spoke to them yet. I found all of them from facebook, so it takes time. Alieen is still in contact with Teresa and Jessica is still in contacts with Shu Ling. I'm really enjoying my "detective" work here, finding those missing pieces of my life and reconnecting with people who were part of my life.

Here's a song to my found classmates, to the rest I'm searching for, not forgetting friends that have been with me till this day and all my new found friendship for the past few years.

Only in America! - The Obama no FLY zone!

One more reason for me to like this man! LOL

Happy Bollywood

I used to watch Tamil movies during weekends on TV when I was much younger. Love it!! Bollywood is the biggest movie industry in the world for Bollywood makes 5000 movies a year leaving Hollywood way behind. I've been watching lots of Bollywood movies (Hindi) lately. Gosh They are so good that I teared! Plot , editing, cinematography and music are superb. They just get better and better.

Here is one that I really like:

Title "Billu Barber ": The actor Irfaan Khan as Billu is a fantastic actor! Script is good!!

This film is basically based on friendship between an ordinary barber who runs his saloon and a superstar.

The story talks of a village barber Billu [Irfaan Khan]. His wife [Lara Dutta] understands him and always stands by him during his tough times, his children forever make fun of him. Billu isn't able to meet his daily demands, not even making up for his children's school fee. But things aren't the same, a film unit visits his village to shoot a movie and with the unit comes superstar Sahir Khan [Shahrukh Khan] Billu's childhood buddy.

Billu's acquaintance during his childhood days with Sahir Khan is known to the entire village. Now the villagers make a U-Turn in their behaviour towards Billu. They treat him graciously. Everyone is ready to favor him in all spheres. But at the same time everyone starts coaxing him to meet the superstar, all for their own benefits. - (From http://www.whereincity.com/movies/bollywood/7820 )
