Gimme a Triple Shot + A Chaser!
Friday, Nov 6, 2009 1:39AM / Members only
Hey peeps...
Sorry for being so quiet (again)... I've been so busy lately with my new drama, and my internet has been refusing to cooperate and connect to the world wide web when I'm sitting at home like a zombie on my off-days
... So, I'm gonna try to squeeze in as much as I can before it it decides to disconnect me!
~ A breakdown of what I've been up to during the last few weeks: ~
- Shooting my new Mandarin drama series almost daily! It's relatively comfortable since my scenes are mainly set indoors, which is set inside this gorgeous "SHOW HOUSE", that comes with everything, except for a working water supply. Yup.
So when we need to GO, whoever needs to GO the most yells out "Toilet Troops!!!" as loud as is physically possible at the time (well, in case the bladder loses control 
), we then fight for a spot in the minivan (otherwise you gotta wait for the SECOND trip... 
), which drives for about 5 minutes to the property office, where the facilities are located. You should see what happens when the door to the minivan slides open. A bunch of exhausted barbarians with bladders waiting to explode, desperately trying to get out of the van first & make a run for it, yet still trying to stay composed enough so as to not have any "accidental leaks". Trust me, it's a very funny sight. Of course, that's only when you're not busy being one of those loony barbarians.

- Did a photo shoot for Citta Bella "都会佳人" Magazine, for a feature called "When Men Are The Editors". A few women including myself had to choose one guy, either a friend, a boyfriend or a sibling, to give us makeovers!
Worried? Nah. I didn't have anything to worry about, coz I'd kick his ass if I didn't like the outfit and demand another one! 
Plus, my "stylist" did call me from the store time to time to double check my sizes and to tell me what he chose, so I had a rough idea when the time came anyway, hehehe.... 
*More pics coming up in a bit!*

- Used my day off to do a really fun photoshoot for a bridal house called "Modern Classic Collections". We went to this place called Bukit Tinggi which was totally cute & gorgeous, the moment we arrived it was like we left Malaysia and went to Europe... I think I kinda freaked the living hell out of the photographer (and everyone else for that matter) at first, coz:
Signs that she could be a Bridezilla: -
A) One minute I was all demure & getting my hair & make-up done, and the next I'm standing outside the bridal house with my dress all hitched up, the trail wrapped up in one arm, therefore exposing my comfy Nike trainers (well, why wear heels when u can't see them with a dress that long anyway?
), and trying to carefully light a cigarette with my free hand, which is shaking coz it's being weighed down by my huge bag, which is, erm, hanging off my elbow.
B) After the first outfit, I was so hot, and quite short of breath coz of the super-tight dress that eliminated any back-up oxygen stored in my lungs, so naturally, when I finally found a chair in the shade, I RELAXED. So.... There's me, easily spotted with some of my teeny weeny tattoos visable, busy rummaging through the contents of my bag for my ciggies, while sitting with my dress hitched up to my knees. I was resting my right ankle on my left knee, and my right knee was the resting place for my elbow when I finally found my ciggies. Well, my legs needed air too!!
Didn't seem much at the time, but when I picture myself in my head... Geez, I must've been the most un-lady-like "bride-to-be". And oh boy, "un-lady-like" is like the biggest understatement of the millenium. I looked like some Yakuza hitwoman minus the eye-patch. *humph* 
Ahh well. Comfort has to come first sometimes. So bite me. Before I kick your butt. Hee.
*more pics on the way~*

- WOOHOOOHOOOO~~~!!! Guess who's gonna be on the cover of NewMan Magazine's X'mas issue 2009??
ME!!! Me me me me me. ME!!!
Ok, now that we've established that fact, YAY!!!
It's the 2nd time I'm gonna be on the cover of a mag during my birthday month too
It was a VERY interesting shoot, to say the least. I woke up the next day sore all over and covered in bruises. I'm talking about metal pipes and shiny disco balls. Lots of them. Pipes and balls. Huge. Great pics, love em, the pain was totally worth it . Can't show you the shots yet - but you'll see them in a month's time, don't forget!
(In any case, I'll be here to remind you anyway)

Phew! I did it! I managed to squeeze in my latest updates AND had enough time left for me to throw in my blabbering gibberish as well!
Thanks for reading guys! And for those that actually managed to survive it till this far... I'm truly touched. I do apologize for shouting without waning and my random yelps of joy. 辛苦你们了.
MUAH!!!
(Oops.... Sorry, I yelled again...)

It was great seeing the AnD family again, and of course, it was fun, funny 
, bizarre 
, random , crazy 
, naughty 
, and in this case, a lot of time consuming cigarette breaks...
The 7 (somewhat tiring) Steps to Having a Smoke
1. Walk out of club.
2. Wait for the lift.
3. Go downstairs.
4. Go outside.
5. Find area with a yellow box/ashtray.
6. Light up.
7. And then go "Ahhhhhhh......" 
But to be honest it was kinda....interesting. I think I shall bring with me some yellow spray paint next time, or a foldaway yellow frame. Yup. Definitely. Saves time and all that walking.
Shhhhh.... Don't tell anyone...!
Hmm. These two boys obviously won't be keeping any secrets...

Master of Art - Andy Ho

He's worked alongside some of the biggest names known in fashion, whether it's in London, Paris or Hong Kong. He is well respected for his work and is considered by many as one of the best hairstylists in Malaysia. Well, Andy sure knows how to work his magic! Not only did he style my hair, he also did my make up! He made everything look so effortless and almost playful...
Ok I know I'm gonna sound extremely big headed by saying this, but WOW! That man gave me woo-hooo-hooo cheekbones and GEEZ have you seen those lips ??? 
He said all he did was merely emphasise on what I already had, ...and I replied, " You mean like my eyes, nose, cheeks and lips?? " If this was "merely emphasising", can you imagine what it would be like if he was " totally emphasising
" ? I seriously think make up artists and hairstyists are like
magicians. And I am more than happy to be the prop they use to perform
their magic on.
Thanks Andy!
