Commercial shooting.
Above are some of the pictures taken during my commercial shooting with an amazing photographer. The shooting concept was all about fitness and exercise. Well, I had a tough time doing the stretching exercises because I'm NOT a flexible person. I can barely, not even close at touching my toes with the tip of my fingers T__T !! *shame on me* Hahahaha
Fitness is never my thing because everybody knows I only eat, Eat, EAT but never exercise! Even if I ever go to the gym, I'm already gasping for air after 3 minutes on the treadmill and I practically waste my RM5 on the walk-in fees. But overall, I did enjoyed the shooting because it was quite a relaxing shoot despite the scorching sun and mosquitoes bite!
I know I've gained a lot of weight lately. To be frank with you guys, I've gained a total of 8kg :) With the way I'm eating every single day, it won't be a surprise to me even if I gain 15kg. Food is my ultimate passion and the models calling me overweight is totally okay with me because I'm happy when I'm indulging in greasy, unhealthy food. I can't see myself stuffing my face with green salads, fruits and diet drinks everyday like those skinny girls. I don't know how am I going to shed those pounds but for now, I'll keep enjoying food :)))
Stock Footage Clips
I had a great time on the video shoot with a very talented photographer:) Below are the links to my stock video clips:

Thunder (Covered by Sherman) '2010
I knew nothing bout this song and lyrics. But since the day he played it, I fell head over heels for this song called "Thunder".... The lyrics has been silently singing in my brain and I can't seem to get it out of my head. Wanted to post the video here in my blog page so that each time I miss you, I can just go to my blog and listen to your singing =)
At times, he randomly takes out his guitar and play it for me to listen. He sings as he plays his guitar. I just adore each and every song that he plays for me. I've always dream about having a romantic boyfriend by my side singing under the moonlight while I sleep, read bedtime stories, tug me to bed and prepare breakfast in bed for me. Oh well, God really understood me and destined me to be with the guy that I first laid my eyes on. I didn't knew what love was seriously. I don't know what love feels like but when I felt love for him... it feels pretty darn good =) The tension was there each time we meet in school. Two innocent kids. Barely even reach maturity but yet having butterflies in their tummies each time they glance at one another *laughs*... Years has gone by but that feeling of excite and butterflies in my stomach still exist every time we meet. Sounds cliche huh? A matter of fact, it's true.

Hey guys, was looking back at this video and I thought of sharing it with you guys to take a glimpse or two at our English Drama presentation! Hope you guys enjoy watching it as much as I love acting it with my bunch of fellow classmates :) Well good news is we made it to the finals which consist of 8 groups from management students up to engineering and law students. Overall I'm super proud of my teammates and we were happy that we made it this far. This video is recorded during our preliminary round. We did many changes in our dialogue and acting during semifinals and finals but unfortunately didn't had time to record it. This video is only half part of it because my camera battery died off at the wrong timing. LOL

forget december.
Happy Friday and Happy Holidays to you all. Here's to a wonderfully relaxing weekend of peace and joy spent with family and friends. I'm sending you giant hug through the computer. Can you feel it? I'll be eating lots of sweets this weekend watching holiday movies. I seem to be in a much better mood today than I was at the beginning of the week, yayyy! Exams and assignments had been piling up like a stack of old newspaper for the past few weeks. uRGH... well, I'm glad I'm done and over it. So, cheers to my relaxing, fun-filled weekend : ) On a Friday morning, why not to blog? Ha.
I didn't ask for much next year. Not sure if it's because I'm not really into it or if because I'm getting older. Or because I know I won't get my Macbook so why even bother? (Haha kidding, I'm such a baby!) Whatever the case may be, I'm just happy to be surrounded by people who love me and care about me. When you really think about it, if you don't have that in your life, everything else becomes irrelevant.
With that being said, I hope you all have a verrrrrrry Merry Christmas and A Happy new year! And that you get to spend it with your loved ones too. Bring on 2012, i'm ready.

Not so glamorous after all.
I have been requested to write an article about modeling for a column in the school magazine. how do I go about it? blah blah blah........brainstorming...... and B-A-MMMM , people's perception about the modelling world got me inspired :))
I’m 5 feet 9 inches tall and in the modeling world, that's a shrimp. People keep telling me I'm tall but wait till you see my female model friends. They’re standing at an impressively 6 feet 1 inches tall = 185.42 centimeters! I had always had modeling in the back of my mind. People have always come up to me and said 'are you a model or have you ever thought about pursuing modeling?’. Despite what people keep telling me, I'd never thought about pursuing modelling myself now. I have friends from both genders would come up to me and ask ‘how to become a model?’. Alright you have great looks that can turn heads while you’re walking on public place and great portfolio but that is not enough at all. The model should possess strong will power and confidence to hunt for right opportunity with a determination to work harder and harder. You must be stronger from inside your attitudes, mannerism, communications skills, and patience can put you on the desired place in the industry. Never think that modeling is full of glamour, but if you look in to rationally it is not just glamour as it seems from outside. When you see a beautiful model wearing great smile, there is a lot of hard work behind it from the model itself to full fill the clients, photographers and creative people set objectives. Throughout the fashion week, I was doing back-to-back shows. Sounds glamorous? Well, it looks glamorous, but behind the scenes is chaos! Make up, off, then on, then off and on again, hair extensions glued-in, hair ironed, teased, poked, prodded - the constant preening takes its toll and there’s no time to zone out.
A little guidance to your first steps toward becoming one. “Well, I think I could be a model, but I’m too short/tall/fat/thin/ethnic/....” First, the bad news. Some types of modeling do have pretty rigorous requirements. For instance, runway fashion models need to be tall and preferably slender. If you’re not at least 5'7" or more, the odds of your getting work doing runway fashion are not good. There are exceptions – Kate Moss, for instance, is only 5'6". But exceptions do not disprove rules. Modern haute couture show-fashion is designed to look good on tall, slender models (although this is changing.) If you aren’t tall and slender, the clothes won’t look good on you. If the clothes don’t look good on you, the designers won’t want you to wear them. That’s life. It’s nothing personal. Now the good news. Runway fashion is a tiny, tiny fraction of all the modeling work in the world. Think about it: which do you see more often, pictures of Tyra Banks in a New York fashion show, or pictures of attractive people in everyday settings doing fairly ordinary things to try to get you to buy something or otherwise catch your interest? Commercial, print, casual and editorial work, let alone glamour and art photography, constantly require a huge number of interesting, attractive people of all shapes and sizes for modeling duties. And in today’s market-driven, targeted advertising world, every advertiser with a customer base – tall, short, fat, thin, ethnic, you name it – tries to appeal to its target demographic by using models who look like them, only maybe just a little more attractive.
Well, there is also a very ugly side of modelling. Models are constantly being told to lose weight or gain weight. They are also rejected a lot for jobs. If you can't handle REJECTIONS without taking it personal then modeling is not for you! Also, if you're actually doing some modeling, be careful of "agents," "photographers," "model scouts," whatever. Make sure you bring your mom or your friend with you. Watch out for the sickos out there. Never pay to be in a photo shoot! They should be paying you. If you're serious about becoming a model, then you might want to invest in a modeling class session. You will learn a lot from these, and you will network with the professional models that teach the classes, and the amateur models just like you. Just make sure the organization is licensed so that you don't waste your money. Beware of agency scams, they will usually ask for money up front. If you don't have the money for classes, there are a lot of books, shows, and mentors out there that will help you. When you go to auditions, be extremely careful. Don't go to auditions posted in the "Jobs" section of the news paper. In reality just start contacting legitimate agencies and go to their open calls. If you are what the market is looking for, they will give you a call back. Models carry themselves with an air of confidence, not an air of cockiness! Don't think you're better than everyone, don't get too wrapped up in yourself. Open your eyes to the world and find opportunities. Good Luck !

bits n pieces.
Oh life.

Emotions and hormones.
Brain.
Emotions and hormones.
pulling it all together...
Okay, chemical imbalance or not, we are all on a different playing field.
We ALL react to stress differently, we ALL handle life differently.
My journey has brought me to this.
You have to find what works best for you.
It's not about being weak and wanting to eliminate feelings.
Quite the contrary.

I appreciate more the simple moments of life.
I have a deeper love and appreciation for those who have taken the time to
listen, pray, and still love me throughout it all.
I am more madly in love with my dude who has been unbelievably patient, loving, supportive and understanding through each and every icky moment.

We will never be free of emotions.
Or moods.
We are human.
Perfectly imperfect humans....
note : Well, it looks like the gears are turning and I could shortly be filmed for a reality TV show that could make it on the air. [ ..excited yet nervous..]
