    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...)
