I am so tired and stress out these days. Just know that I be continuing REM instead of MCD, which is different from what was discuss before I sign the contract. Not sure if it's a good or bad news.

I accepted another project which crash with the REM but lucky for me, I don't have to be on set for the other project.

I am just dreaming of my holiday right now although I have not thought about where i want to go.

Just counting my blessing that I still have projects to do. Have no more feelings in project anymore.

Thursday, February 12, 2009

It's been some time since I last blog, what a bomb breaking past few days I have been. Hipcups with projects and got "scream" at for a reason I don't find it justify. Whatever is the case, the projects still have to go on and filming continues.

It's Valentine Day this Sat and yes... I am still single and alone. To make me feel worse, there is no filming this Sat. So, I will most likely be stuck at home and doing nothing. It will be reat if there is filming, then at least I don't have to bother and worried about been alone and rotting at home.

Oh well, everything will be better tomorrow. I can only console myself by saying this.

Have locations recee in the afternoon tomorrow and I just receive a call in the Afternoon asking me to meet up and talk about a new project tomorrow afternoon also. Aiya, have to schedule my timing and make sure that I can handle tomorrow timing well.

Filming starts again

Filming starts tomorrow and I should end around end May after finishing 2 peojects. Was back to work on Wed and alot of stuffs and hipcups happen. I was given alot of heart attacks but lucky everything can be settle.

1st of of shoot tomorrow and there be alot of fighting and a character will be kill off also. Quite happening on the 1st day of filming. After tomorrow filming, then we will have a break of 6 days before the mad rounds of filming continues. The 6 days, we will have to settle remaining props, locations etc. All these to do before Candy takes over from me from 15th onwards. Then I will go over to another project, which will be another hear attack and headache for me.

Happy CNY

It's CNY again, seems like I jst celebrated 2008 CNY and now it's 2009. How time flies. This year CNY will only be 2 days, which I will have to go back to work on the 3rd day and 5th day it's filming already.

I am grateful that I still have works and projects to do in this down period and my rates isn't cut too low.

Anyway, I just hope that I can handle both projects and don't have major screw up.

Sleeping disorder

It's 431am now, got to wake at 745am and I still can't get to sleep. This is serious, I have sleeping problems since my last filming date. Been only manage to fall asleep everyday at around 7am is no joke and it's very serious. I need and hope to solve this problem. Maybe when I start the project again and getting back to work again can solve it. Be getting back to work in around 9 hours time.

I just hope that the bosses keep to their promises and I just hope to work with as less trouble as possible. I am more hoping to work in the 2nd project as promise instead of the 1st one.

Am aiming to get my pay from the travelogue by Wed latest, then I can go for my hair rebonding, give mum allowance for CNY and buy some new clothes at least. Although I don't believe in getting new clothes for CNY, but I am running out of clothes to wear already.

Have afew events and gatherings this month. I just need the money. Ah! Please don't disappoint me.

New projects

Be starting new projects on Monday onwards, should be book till either April or June. However, unsure if it's a good or bad thing though.

The offer that the company give isn't that good, but whatever is the case, at least there is something for me hang on before the big projects starts.

Red Cliff 2

Watched Red Cliff 2 last night, I like the fighting / action scenes. The dialogue parts are rather draggy and I almost fell asleep. The last scene, when Jin Chen Wu and Tony Leung meet at the big grass patch, the top wide shot, I saw their marking, a green gaffer tape. That's funny for a high budget and high class feature film.

After watching, Panda came and meet us (JY, WM and CS) for supper and chat. It was Panda's birthday, so we let him decide on where to go. At first we head to Ah Meng's cafe, but reach at around 1213am, the owner told us that they close at 1am. So we head to the eating place opposite Cineleisure, but the food that Panda wanted to eat, Botak Jones is closed. So finally we head off to the muslim stall along Tiong Bahru which is open 24hrs.

Had so much fun chatting and gossiping with them. We finally decide to part at 5am plus. However, when I reach home, I still can't sleep. That's terrible! I was wide awake until finally get to sleep at around 11am plus. Not sure if should I continue on the sleeping disorder pills or see a doctor and get some sleeping pills.

Tomorrow meeting with the production company boss, hopefully I can secure the project and not having too much rate cut due to budget.

Finally watching Red Cliff 2 today, never watch it on Friday cause no one wana watch.

ST last minute ask me out for dinner on Thur night. We went Bliss at Punggol Park, the food isn't that great. Disappointed at the mussels and escargots. ST and I decided that the next time we come again, we will only drink and don't eat.

Met up with JT on Friday afternoon, he felt abit depress and disappointed due to some work issues. Before we part, receive a call from a company. Boss want to speak to both JT and me about 2 different projects. Maybe got good news.

Had 2 cups of black coffee, that when I got home I vomited. I can't really take black coffee well, so having 2 cups make me punk. Anyway, I took medicine then went out. Went to Heeren to buy Ellery's present before taking a bus down to Concrad Hotel, Oscar, for Ellery's birthday gathering. Quite nice beside the fact that my stomach isn't feeling that well, so never drink at all, just tea. Emida and Juan went also, had fun time chatting with them.

Sat night was spent drinking with AT, TC and JT at Ah Meng's cafe. Had such fun time gossiping and chatting with them. However, I think I drink too fast liao. Woke up at around 6am, vomiting like hell. Lucky no hang over.

Have been staying at home for the past few days, slacking and sleeping late. Actually, have not been able to sleep at night. Either forcing myself to sleep at 7-8am in the morning, waking at 6-7pm or not sleeping at all for days. Like now, I have not sleep for 2 days already. Don't know why but just isn't sleepy at all. Maybe I am so used to the hectic, busy and stressful working lifestyle that suddently been so relax with nothing to do, I am jus not used to it.

Feb project might be gone due to the company re-structure and budget re-work. Hope to find another replacement project soon. Meanwhile, I am chasing back all the payments for 2008 projects. If I can get all payments by this month, I believe I can hold without jobs for afew months. But I know that the longer I slack at home, the more I will go crazy and my parents will sure nag and nag non-stop. Hahaha...

Watching Red Cliff 2 tomorrow, then after that going to Ellery's birthday celebration. At least there is something happening to do to kill time.

Aching body

Did Jacq's weeding yesterday. I can't sleep the night before due to the shoot, cause it's been like almost 2 years since I last did a wedding shoot. Went to collect equipments, then went to buy DV tapes and firewire with Ellery and Sharon. Settle for dinner after buying before heading to Ellery's house to collect the equipments which I also don't know why I put them in his house in the first place.

Anyway, I reach back at his house the next morning at 430am. Filming the wholc time until 1130pm. Burned out and whole body is aching. Carrying the camera for almost like 19 hours with a spotlight mounted onto the camera can be very heavy as time goes by.

Woke up this morning with aching arms, shoulders, back, the whole body.

I think I will avoid doing wedding shoots in future, it's more tiring than filming.

No one asks me out for any countdown tonight, so I guess I be staying at home watching tv and rot ba.

5 more days to 2009. Times really fly fast. How did I celebrate my X'mas you might ask, so I will do a recap for you.

13th: Went to Jason Tai's house for his baby, Ethan Tai, full month gathering. His baby is so cute and Kai Li was saying that when he grow up, he will be very handsome. Jason was complaining about his current project, yet again. Hahaha... then his usual sentence "Cherlyn, you wana come save XXX, since you had saved REM" He is such a joker. Not many industry people went though, thought I can do a great catching up with the rest. Me, Kai Li, Alvin, Derrick & gal, Leslie and Glenn turn up.

After leaving Jason's house, me, Kai Li and Leslie went for dinner at Jurong Point. Watched "Bolt" with Leslie, a terrible show with terrible graphics and animations.

16th: Met up with Candy, Vanessa, Alvin, Felicia, Evan and Grace for gathering and post celebration for Candy's birthday. Alvin is so nice to come pick me up using Candy's dad's car cos of my sprain leg. At least it goes to show that 小弟小妹 still likes me although I am rather fierce and stern. Had our dinner at Marina Square, which Vanessa left after dinner. Went for KTV after dinner which a stupid waitress in KBox did.

Alvin went to order a cake from KBox itself and asked them to bring it in the room after 30 minutes. As I was singing halfway, the waitress came in and asked directly in front of Candy "Can I serve the cake now?" Everyone stoned and blured on the spot. After the waitress left the room to get the cake, I was cursing so much which my 小弟小妹 was laughing. "If she is my PA or something, I will have kick her into the sea liao." was what I said.

Anyway, after singing we went to have roti prata. Evan was so nice to send me home after that.

18th: Went to discuss a project with a production company and collected a cheque from another nearby company. Will be starting a new project on 01st Feb and should end around 19th April. Got Mark in as the project DOP. Long time never see Mark liao, he is still as funny as ever. He sent me home when he see my leg in bandage. So sweet.

22nd: Met Candy at 1pm to watch IP Man. It's a great and excellance movie. I love the fighting scenes and talking scenes. I cried alot of times during the movie. After watching, we went to Vanessa's office. I had to transfer some stuffs to her. After that, Candy and I went to another company. I recommend Candy as the PM for another project which I am glad that she got it.

As I was waiting for Candy, the company bosses ask me in to their office to chat. The chat didn't really turn up great I guess, cause I was telling them about the manpower issues and budget issues. Hahaha... I didn't said it too bluntly though, I keep smiling and joking with them as I "complain". Hahahaha...

After that, I went to meet Donovan for dinner before heading off to a KTV session with him and Victor. Donovan left first, followed by Victor and me.

24th: Met up with Arnold and Candy for dinner before proceeding to Roomfull Of Blues for drinks. Had our countdown there. Arnold paid for everything, so nice and sweet of him. Only afew people turn up. Jason Yun, Arnold's friend Siva. Then Joel and father turn up only after the countdown and had a drink, then leave with Arnold.

That's all for the recap. Will be having a wedding shoot on 30th. Glad that I can finally get busy and get paid also.

Tuesday, December 16, 2008

As the year 2008 is coming to an end, I starts to recap what have I been doing. Nothing great but had afew projects that I am rather proud of. Done my very first travelogue, been to Bangkok, Tokyo, Ho Chin Minh City and Shanghai for the first time. Done by very first music video. Done a kids drama that won an award.

Work wise, everything has been going rather smoothly.

Love relationship wise, nothing is happening. Hope for my Mr Right to appear but the longer I wait, the more depressing the suitation it becomes. I am not looking for super handsome nor super rich, just someone who loves me and I will love him. Someone who can understands my job and pampers me.

10 more days to Christmas and 16 more days to 2009. Just hope that I can find that special someone to celebrate with me and spend the moment with me. 2009 means I be 30 years old, how many more years do I have to wait, I have no idea.

Seeing friends and couples together always make me envy.

This blog is rather emo I know. Just wana say out my thoughts at this moment. Hasn't been sleeping well for the past few nights. My thoughts are in a mess. However, I wana thank my friends who are always there for me in my darkest moment no matter what happen. Sharon, Ellery and Victor, you guys will always be in my heart and will always be my good friends forever.

Injured leg

I always have problems with my ankles, now it's worse. I injured myself during the travelogue filming, then when I return I have projects one after another which leaves me no time to see any sinseh.

I finally see the sinseh yesterday morning when I really can't bear with the pain anymore. Sinseh says I got internal injury in the vein and I need to fully rest my leg for at least 1 week or so. Now my left leg is in bandage. The current telemovie I will be stopping it as of today onwards cause I really can't stand for too long and I can't help in the moving of props and run about, so I decided to stop.

Just hope that my leg will recovery soon and in time for the wedding shoot.

Just went for another meeting in another project, accepted it. Tomorrow call time at 7am, tiring. Lucky I don't have much responsibity for this telemovie. EP says it will wrap on 11th Dec, so will finish filming by next week. I just have to bear with the tiring for 1 week plus and I be done. Hoepfully can rest by then.
