Aja aja fighting!

Wednesday, September 21st, 2005

It’s been a while (again) since I last updated my blog. A lot of things have happened & I seriously have no idea where to begin blogging. OK. Let me begin with last week’s stuffs.
*Warning - Long blogging ahead*

Sunday (11.9.05)
Took the house scene at Hc’s apartment. I dunno wat’s wrong with that day but it seemed that I had "accidentally" destroyed & disturbed almost everyone’s mood. First of all, my dearest bf who was waiting to pass the key to me at the apartment. I left Klang kinda later than expected & by the time I reached, he was already running late for his football tournament. He didn’t look happy… Besides SORRy (again), I rily had no idea wat else could I say. The night before that I accidentally "hurt" him & had already prepared with the compensation. Mana tau, "disturbed" him again the next day. What crappy gf am I? 2ndly, my fren who was sooooooooo kind to help our group with the filming arrived much much earlier than I did. Seemed that he got the wrong cue of time. He didn’t look happy either when I found him. All in all, the day’s shooting went well. We didn’t managed to finish all the house scenes. Will continue on Wednesday. Thanks again MR. Goh… Had fun acting wit ya… Haha…
 *will reminisce the day’s experience through the video*

Then… Wat else… Hmm.. Assessment with Ms. Winnee. It has always been scary having to go through assessment with this lecturer of mine. She’s the miss perfect kinda person. Always have to do 120% preparation before going in to meet her. Well, actually the assessment didn’t went all that bad. Just that… Maybe… My group members & I "magnified" it a little too much. Then again, it wasn’t all that good either. From what we have speculated, it is most probably because all of the group members including I have taken the subject "Research Methods" under her - a subject which involved experimentation skills & techniques - that’s y Ms. Winnee was extra strict with our experimental design. Her questions were very very detailed. Almost couldn’t answer. She passed us though. Yay! Had to redo the experiment procedure on Tuesday. While I stood on the weighing scale (part of experimental procedure), Ms. Winnee exclaimed, "My Gosh, You’re that skinny!" Haha…

Wednesday (14.9.05)
IO experiment day. Went to coll darn early to prepare. Stayed in the experimental labs the whole day - eating only bread for both breakfast & lunch.
 *Help!!*
The sessions went well for 5 consecutive hours. Our main weakness was NOISE! Thanks to the unsynchronized laptop playing of instructions (some even thought that the echo noises were meant to be a deception *giggle*) & of cos, the super major 1 was the noise contributed by participants themselves while "playing" the verbal task. THose of u who’re reading & U don’t understand wat the heck I’m blogging about, just ignore it or ask me bout the details if ur interested… Anyway, the participants’ feedback were great. Mostly agreed that the experiment was an interesting & different one as compared to previous/ usual boring experiments. They had fun playing. My group members & I were rily rily glad to have heard that cos we did actually wanted the sessions to be fun considering that it’s our last sem conducting experiments in the college…
After the experiments, we had to rush over to Bukit Jalil to continue with our house scene video take. Yi had to rush down to USJ to pick JIN KO (her bf) but … her car which was parked illegally had been TOWED! Val’s car unfortunately had been SAMANED! Mine, on the other hand, was well & safe in the college’s carpark which was of cos far! (I drove INNOVA that day). So, we decided to slipt. I will go to IMU myself while Val & Yi go all the way to Jinjang to fetch Yi’s car. By the time all were settled it was already 6pm & we haven’t even started taking any scenes. The acting ended at bout 10.15pm, with Jin Ko, Kay & Hc’s help. That was the end of the house scene. We had soooooooooooo many things to carry home. My small tables & stools, tea set, flowers etc. I remembered to bring back everything except for my table cloth. Wat crap… From an empty house, we transformed Hc’s apartment to a cosy home. Now, it is back to its old empty house look again. Awe… I reached home at 11pm. Tired…

Thursday - Skipped morning IO’s class. All of us were too tired to attend. Haha… Redid the room scene at PJ amcorp mall. TOok a darn brief time cos the supposedly renter of the house shifted her stuffs into it already. The make up sets, perfume, clothes etc were all in place. We didn’t dare stay long cos we were afraid she might drop by any minute (The last time we went there to take the room scene, there was practically no1). After lunch, went shopping at Amcorp Mall. All 4 of us bought clothes. As i’ve mentioned before - "Peer Pressure - something that u cant ignore during shopping" Haha… Yi, Fang & I bought long skirts till the ankle while Val bought a "fluffy" (is that the correct word to describe?) Hmm… It’s actually a pants where when u walk u can hear the "flap flap" sound. Haha… Yi & Fang got the gypsy skirts that I’ve wanted for so long but Val said those kinda skirts’ cutting don’t suit me. So, i got stg else instead. I like mine very much though. Gives me a "taller" & more feminine touch. Haha…

Friday - Chun Peng’s birthday party at night. Simple yet luxurious. Rich fella… Totally forgotten to bring the tripod for Kenn Fong. Haha… Everything went well except for the fact that I’ve got a slight flu - hachuing once in a while. Laughed at their jokes esp when CP made the wish of 2 feet taller & when they tried "pairing up" CP with Steph. They’re so close to being a couple but y didn’t they start in the first place. Kept everyone wondering… Then went over to Ming Tian to meet up with Hc’s A level’s frens who were leaving for UK the next day. Very frenly & funny people. Enjoyed the time with them… (Mabuk Phong Teck, Lame Wei Chong & Flushed face Ching Sing) Haha… Thanks dear for the heels thingey. Felt rily touched although it maybe just a small gesture. Muaks!

Spent almost the whole saturday with my darling dearest. Brunch with him, watched "House" & "Freaky Friday". Watched him play basketball (watched leng chais at the same time Haha…) Wish I could have dinner wit him as well but I’d prefer having dinner with my family considering that I’ve been out of the house for about 48 hours already. Thanks dear… So gonna miss u cos dunno when oni can c u again… We’ll be the couple surviving k? Haha… Love u o… 

Sunday - Gan Association’s Family Day. This year’s rily lacked a whole lot of people. Hc couldn’t come (he was suppose to!), my brother MIA, Kay couldn’t come as well. Sigh… The weather wasn’t all that co-operative. Sudden hot & sudden rain. Not only was I already down with flu, I could feel headache setting in as well. Not to forget, the sunburn I got was terrible (no sun block sumore)! My face, ears & neck - pain like crap! Felt as if they were cracking & tearing! Fun day though… Haha…

I guess that’s all the report for the whole week. Don’t think I can blog anytime soon. Too occupied with assignments & all… Aja aja fighting!

 

Busy, busy, busy…

Saturday, September 10th, 2005

Gosh! The last time I updated this blog was on 28th August? That’s like 2 weeks already?! I must be damn damn damn busy. I’m still very very busy with my video assignment. Just started actually after all the preparation of the script, props & venue confirmation.

Last Wednesday, we started our first scene which was the room scene. Took 2 hours just to finish a less than 2 minutes scene wahahhaha… But it was our first so it was understandable considering we have to decorate the room, get the camera angle, clothing, make up etc. Well, although it was predictable that we would have laughing scenes while video shooting, the first take was rily funny. It started off with the phone ringing & Val was supposed to pick it up. THe moment she picked it up, she started laughing. That was NG no.1! Haha… Overall, the video take was ok. We had a fun time despite the tiring moving up & down of heavy props. After that, we went over to IMU to check out on hc’s apartment (our house setting). We got lost… erm… actually kinda thanks to me also la cos I wasn’t rily sure of the way that Val used. So, wasted rm3.20…Sorry! When we reached the apartment, we kinda ransacked the place, emptying their kitchen etc. Hahahahha… Tiring day but an enjoyable one i suppose…

Then, on Thursday & Friday, got ffk-ed by lecturers. Thursday, there was a last minute cancellation of class. So, we wasted the whole Thursday without any video take. On Friday, Winnee just walked in the class, talked for less than 5 minutes, announcing that there wouldn’t be class (cos she wanted to see groups that haven’t prepared for their ERB). Btw, my groups both experiments have been passed by the ERB! Yay! After such a long wait… But the problem now is that we hardly have the time to conduct the experiments with the video assignment in hand. Aiyoyo…

Went over Bukit Jalil on Friday to do the hospital hallway scene with Chun Peng & the 2 car scenes. So so sorry to have bugged Mr.Goh Chun Peng’s life. SO SO SORRY! If you’re reading this MR. GOh, SORRY! Good take at the "hospital" (especially to Miss Joanne, Amy’s mom hahahaha)… My car scene with Fang… was actually weird (after I watched it on the camera). Maybe cos it’s me myself who’s acting. Then again, wat the heck?! Tried my best. I’m so not photogenic (photo & video wise)… I like the accident scene very much. Looks real & funny at the same time. Andrew, ur good! I mean the running after call scene, stunned scene & the blood scene. I was laughing to myself thinking bout the police car that passed by while we were doing the blood scene. LOoks convincing wahahahaha…. We’re gonna take the house scene tmr. Hopefully, we can do as much as possible.

Personal message to my darling,
Besides SORRY, i don’t know what else to say. Please bare with me… Thank you dear. Love u very much…
