Things have happened since February.

Quite a bit of things have happened since the last time I posted. Since then my path or rather me and my team's path have gone in a different way, and in truth, I am actually quite happy with the way things turned out. We are currently working on some cool stuff, which I will post up soon enough. Or if you are on facebook, you can find us there.. under TV Shows called the cirKLe. :P
Be a FAN!

On to my thoughts of the day...

The other day, I had gone off to see my boy in the school's yearly sports day.. I got a cute little footage of him falling down while running in a sack (hehe...he is almost 7 yrs old) and once I edit that I might post it up. As much as I find it weird, but I could not help but be sooooo proud that his team got a medal for 3rd place. I know it's just 3rd but still... a MEDAL! Makes me think... that regardless of how my kid will do, I will still feel like I want to be proud of him.. and every itsy-bitsy challenge that he manages to get over, I will probably find myself rooting for him every step of the way. I think in a way, most mums and dads will feel that way about their kids, and that made me THINK about how my parents rooted for me when I was a kid. In a way, having a kid DID make me rethink a lot of things. I used to remember that I used to say, "Oh I won't do that if I become a Mom." But now, it's a lot different. I begin to understand why my parents did what they did when they raised me. It sure did make me appreciate them better. (Although I still think there were some things I felt was unfair *pout*)

I used to think it was no big deal if I didn't do anything for my parents on Mother's or Father's Day, and I used to remember that my parents always said, "No need to get us anything lah!" But when my boy actually made a card for me during the last Mother's Day (AND Valentine's Day!) I was like, "Awwwww...." And this warm feeling came over me. Thank God I never listened to them when it came to giving them a little something to show my appreciation... Now I actually got to feel what they probably felt.

I used to remember when I was younger, I did say that I couldn't see myself being a parent. But now, I honestly feel like I can't see myself NOT being a parent. Funny how time changed my perception of life. I guess that is why wisdom comes with age.

Enough ranting, I have work to do, YIKES! Until next post, adieu!

Haven't been upkeeping but will begin to do so...

I realised that I have not been upkeeping my blog *again* and here I am tip-tapping my keyboard trying to catch up.. It HAS been a long time and in that time A LOT has happened. We are working (that is me, my sister and my other half) on some concepts for TV series and such. I tell you it has been quite a headache. My sister, who henceforth shall be know as Puteri, is our resident Talent Manager and in the past 3 weeks has seen probably about 100 over applications and about 80 plus people for auditions.

I guess some people still do want to be a star actor/actress and the auditions were pretty alright. It was just that it gets to be rather tiring having to sit through each audition. For her. Haha. I chose not to participate as I have other things on my mind...

I wrote a nice little light romantic story with a dash of humour in it, and I am really looking forward to actually making it. Unfortunately, what is a goal without obstacles. As Murphy's Law states, what can go wrong, will go wrong. But that is a story for another post, another day. Back to the story though, this was inspired by sister, who is also looking for love. Most of the stuff that happens in the story actually happened in real life. Well... except for some extreme stuff. I am not going to post my story up here. But I will post a link to the youtube vid once it has been completed. >.<

Don't you just love the internet?? But then again I am rambling.

Unfortunately *that word again* completely completing my proposal meant that I had to refrain myself from taking a holiday during the time when practically everyone else was on holiday. It was Chinese New Year and the country has two public holidays to honour it, and where was I? At the office, tip-tapping my keyboard. For those who are not in the know, my office is something that I proudly sit in to do my conceptualising, writing, video editing etc work and although sometimes the mess gets ahead of me *whose office doesn't get messed up once in awhile?* I never let that get in the way of finishing whatever I have to do.

Again I am rambling on and on about my office space.. this happens in real life too you know. Not just in the blog.

I take a pause and watch my "dear" sister sleeping.. *pause* I am so jealous!!!!!!!!!! I wanna sleep tooo!!!!! But no.. I have to finish this silly stinking @#&!^# *ahem* But I have to continue and be vigorous in completing my writing. Yes I do.

I am also at the end of my day’s writing quota so in order to finish it I have to get off this blog first. Will keep this space posted about what happened to my proposal, and so, until tomorrow, au revoir.

I've done it!

My irritation has past (somewhat) and I have taken the first step of cross-posting...

Well, actually not on MySpace but on Friendster.. maybe I'll do the other tomorrow... seriously.

Now I am too tired to actually do anything so just like usual, I shall save this, cross-post it,and click that sign out button. Yeah. I think that is great. Maybe I should start doing some work (that I am putting off because I wanted to do this)...*pause*

For those of you who are reading past posts on Friendster Blog well, it is seriously backdated even though post date is 1st of May, but enjoy anyway. For now, I seriously have to get back to the real world and start doing my editing work that is overdue. And the website. And the mock advert. Etc. etc. etc. *pause*

Till tomorrow, adieu.

Cross-blogging: To do or not to do?

Just yesterday, right after I posted, I was fooling around with my site on MySpace. My sister was telling me that it looked so, so, so very, very plain. Therefore I was on MySpace to see if I can rectify the problem. Laziness creeped upon me as usual and I ended up not doing anything anyway. Sigh.

Then I noticed that I could also blog there. Hmmm.. and now the question is should I blog there too? As in cross-post? A mighty question for me as I am quite known to be lazy sometimes. Really.. only sometimes.*pause*

I find myself feeling slightly irritated. Probably the nearing of THAT time of the month. The mixed-up feelings, the irritation.. etc.. but I'm not THAT bad. Really...only sometimes. *pause*

Maybe I should take a break. I'm hungry anyway.

Long absence due to lack of connectivity

Yes. Yes. And Yes. I have not been blogging. Although this might not seem earth shattering but still, a feeling of lingering guilt hovers over my head like dark smog in a polluted place. I seriously cannot keep track of the number of times I wanted to blog but couldn't seem to be able to... no connection, no computer, no mood, all this numerous reasons and excuses seem to float around and its smothering me.

Seriously.

Lots have happened since I last blogged in.

First of all, I am no longer a lecturer.

Although that may not come as a shock for those who are real close to me, I found it rather disturbing as I actually found that I enjoyed lecturing. Ah, but that has passed and now on to new things in life.

I am now a company owner. Quite a step since my last job, eh? Proud owner of Zesqa Media, a company that specialises in media services, mainly video production (my passion), audio production and photography and digital imaging. Yes. I have banded with Danny and my sister, Tuti to form this company.

Ah. I take a deep breath as I sit back on my office chair typing this sentence out.

Of course, I have also been joined by various others that I would like to call family. Now these guys are like my little brothers and they are all enthusiastic (they'd better be!) about production and so here I am doing my best, not only for my family but my extended family as well.

On to other things then.

During the times that I have been absent (due to lack of connection to the world wide web... seriously) I learnt more things about human nature than I actually care to learn about. Some people are deviously self-centred in the sense that they feel every action the other person does is in many ways related to whatever this devious person is doing. I mean, seriously. The world doesn't revolve around one certain person. Get a life.

That three little words that has become the cliche of the world can sometimes be most satisfying to say to people who really don't have a life other than to cause additional trouble simply because they are bored, or simply put, retarded. You know who you are.

Before my annoyance really show, I'd better take a break from this post and continue blogging another time, and hopefully my next post won't take that long.

Adieu.
