Untitled

I must have heard this a million times in my head. I never knew what it means. It all started when a passerby in my life told me this and after that it just kept playing back. Yeah It doesn't have to end up this way. Bla bla bla.

It's funny when it comes to human relations. It just gotta be funny for after all this world is all about human relations. Language, culture, civilization and all human race will not be formed and continued till this day should everyone had lived in isolation. What would have happened if Adam and Eve had preferred to live 5000 miles apart? Then I wouldn't be siting here typing on my laptop and there wouldn't be the word "I". So "I" was made up of two person who decided to live together to create life out of love.

ANYWAY......

Men are born hunter and protector so that women can care for the young. I once read somewhere that mice had the best instinct/sensory when it comes to choosing its mate. The female can tell by sniffing if the male had ANY bad genes that may lead to defects to the young. It will be wonderful if all females of the human race is born with that instinct/sensory. LOL

My date with spring ........

Nope I didn't go to Kuala Lumpur after all. I had let go my chance to be in my dream musical. There's no explanation. I guess its not meant for me yet.

Finally acting school is over. Met a few interesting characters from all walks of life. I didn't really put in much effort to make friends. Maybe I do sound a little "proud". Not that I'm not interested to make new friends but my main objective there is to learn and re-learn my craft. After all an actor is a lonely profession.

However, there were a few interesting people who reminded me when I first started acting many years ago. They have so much life and passion for the craft. Not that I've had lost mine but by being near them, their passion energize me whenever I almost fall asleep in class because I was so tired from shoot and being ill. There were also a few experience actors and they are pretty good. I learned so much from everyone.

Anyway, I am gonna go for a very short holiday on the 16th Apr - 19th Apr. I'm also not gonna work (no matter what) from 16th Apr - 22nd Apr because its my very own special week every year. Unless I get paid 10k per day for that week. LOL

So where am I going to? Somewhere with sun, sea, sand and of course lots of coconut trees for shade and hammock....

Random Restlessness

I'm happy that I'll get to sing for the old folks home sometime in mid of May. Nope, I'm not doing karaoke style but a two piece band. Just me and my guitarist. Gonna sing mainly in Cantonese and Mandrian oldies and I'm doing it for free.

Tonight I'm feeling very restless. I guess I am mainly upset about the fact that I couldn't get my bedroom light fix. Its been 4 months since I've been relying on my table lamp. ARRGH Two of my toe nails broke a few days ago. OUCH!
And I wonder who called me at 4am just now. No caller ID.

Someone actually put up a camping/sleeping tent below my apartment block. I wonder who's sleeping inside. Must be the hot weather.

Mom has been coughing very badly every night. I hope she gets well soon.
Can't wait to bring grandma out for dinner next week.

Drained but happy

I attended Harry's ROM ceremony early this afternoon and gonna go celebrate with the newly weds later at Simon's pub which also happens to be the first day in business. Went to see doc with mom just now. Both of us are not feeling well. I'm still coughing and mom had fever. Today I received words from my actor friend who I met in china. Glad to have him added on MSN. Puppy is doing well at Mdm Tan's so far. Glad he found a job.

I'm gonna slow down a bit for the next few days. Gotta really nurse my health back. Latest thing is I had eye infection. Cosmetics allegry. LOL

I just wanna eat, sleep and play all I can for the next two days before I get emotionally drained with work again. On the whole, even with cough, eye infection, emotionally drained at work and school and being tired, I am still very happy.

Home at last

I got off the plane at 5pm yesterday and rushed to my acting class which starts at 630pm together with my luggage and "trophies" from the duty free. I had missed 2 lessons, can't afford to miss anymore. Yeah, I looked dramatic the moment I arrived at school.

I couldn't sleep last night even though I was really tired, only managed to fall asleep at 5am after I switched on the A/C. I guess my body is adjusting back to the hot weather here. This afternoon the heat was almost unbearable for me. I couldn't get myself off the bed. Mom made special tonic soup for me during dinner.

I just woke up from a nap. Gotta go prepare myself for tomorrow's chinese drama shoot. There's still big chucks of lines to remember and character work to do for tomorrow's class too.

I maybe tired but I'm happy because there's work. It's really good to be home.

Home coming

My journey to the east will soon come to an end in 2 days time. I can't imagine what will it be like without help and guidance from my new friend who is a veteran actor from Shanghai. I address him DaGe (Big Brother). Also I made friend with a 20 year old beautiful (intern) actress who is currently understudying TV hosting. I hope she'll do well in the next few years.

Even though I got a small supporting role with only 3 episodes, I'd gained more than insights on filming in China. This wonderful experience will stay with me forever.
Its something I can talk about to my grandchildren many years later. Yeah, I want to be that grandmother who shares her life journey as bed time stories to her grandchildren. LOL

Now I'm all dressed up in the hotel room, waiting for the PAs to send me to the location. I'm happier to wait in my room than on location. LOL I'm feeling sleepy now. I guess its the time of the day, its almost 5pm now. Last I heard, extra scene were added today so we are expected to be super over running today. Also, tomorrow will be the last day of shoot for the whole production.

I hope I can make it back to the hotel by 9pm tonight so that I can go for a nice hair wash at the in house salon. Really good and cheap at 38yuan that includes full head massage, ear cleaning, mini neck and body massage. We can never get such services back home.

I think I really need to take a nap...........
