Wedding Bells a-tinkling

My sister’s getting married!!! 🙂 After all the break-ups, and ups and downs I’ve seen her go through over the years, she has finally found ‘The One’. And this – ‘One’ is definitely a very sweet one I must say. 🙂 I fully entrust my dear sister to you! (Not that I had any say in it for that matter..haha) Joe: You had better take really good care of her or I’ll…or I’ll…beat you to a pulp! Haha…Anyhows, I couldn’t help but feel a complete burst of happiness when I received the ‘He Proposed!’ text message from her. And…he took her on a surprise romantic get-away for the proposal…how sweet. 🙂 Brownie points for you!!

It’s so weird that I had a vivid dream about my sister getting married about a month or so before that. I dreamt that I was bawling my eyes out because she was ‘leaving’ the family and I woke up suddenly with a dull thud in my heart and with fat tears spilling down my face. 🙂 Che, I’m definitely going to miss you lots but I’m really really happy that you have finally found someone to spend the rest of your life with. *muakssssss!!

Thank you :)

Thank you so much everyone for all your encouragement and kind words in response to the ”anonymous comment”. Reading them all really warmed my heart. 🙂

Throughout this competition, my personal goal was to keep improving and to only ‘compete against myself’. I pondered long and hard over the issue of being ‘fake’ and whatever negative vibes that I seemed to exude to certain people after Tuesday’s show. I finally got nowhere after all that pondering, because all I could conclude was, I was truly being myself and was truly having a ball of a time on stage! 🙂 I do admit of course, that I have a way lot to improve in my acting and I have been and am working hard on it… Hopefully, I’ll be able to deliver something better the next round and achieve personal growth.

Anyhows, the next show will be 2 hour long instead of the usual 1 hour, and will be held on a Sunday instead of the usual Tuesday slots. Preparations and rehersals are already along the way and we are learning something new behind closed doors now. I can’t say much about it yet…except that it’s really rather physically demanding! ouch ouch ouch!

Snaps taken behind the scenes….we are all missing everyone who have ‘left’ us! 😦

Quarters Aftermath

An anonymous left me a comment on my blog after (I figured) last night’s quarter finals show. He/she said…”you look good in your blog pics.. but why do u look so bad on tv? especially your bug teeth? and your smile is so fake?”

I thought I’ll give some response to him or her..cos it’s my first hate mail!! Firstly, I’ll have to ask you back.. “Why are you so mean!!?” Does it give you instant gratification to insult someone… especially when done so ‘anonymously’? 😦 Maybe sometimes you may forget that others are human like you are, and also live and feel the same way you do. Maybe you should try being criticised for the way you look someday by someone….or maybe you should try doing a live show on TV too….and see how that feels. 🙂 Anyway, nonetheless…I thank you for your ‘constructive criticism’. My first ‘hate’ mail! Haha. Perhaps, you can give me some suggestions on my performance next time. 🙂 That should help.

p.s I did contemplate changing my entire set of teeth way before your commented on my blog because I do know of my ‘buck teeth’ problem….but *ouch* I chickened out after thinking about the pain I’ll have to go through…and decided I should concentrate on my inner self instead and work on expanding my energy on my performances itself.

Anyways….

I got through to the semis! 🙂 Very surprisingly…maybe having no expections really helped. I never thought I’ll stand on that stage again after last night’s show before this…because everyone else in that round seemed so strong to me! I went in with no expectations, and solely wanted to enjoy my ‘last show on stage’ and retreat gracefully. I was shocked when my name was announced. 🙂 I think i’m having the aftermath adrenaline rush…because I can’t seem to sleep after the show. (Never thought this would happen…I mean before the show maybe, but after ?! what’s wrong with me! haha) Maybe the judges did see my growth after the first elimination round. After all I have been working my arse off to improve- especially in acting. What would help alot now, is to have a tongue surgery to switch my tongue to a mandarin speaking one. 😀

I especially want to thank again all my lovelies who came down to the studio to support me, and definitely also everyone else who have been giving me so much help and pointers, whom have been cheering, praying and encouraging me. Thank you so much for pushing me along this journey and for helping me believe in myself. 🙂

Oh one more thing….I saw the huge pink banner che!!! So pretty!! Thank youuuuuuu!!!!!!!

I really should try and sleep somemore now….goodnight! 😉
