Hee hee with all the hype about the latest Pixar offering, here’s my contribution!

I had an interesting conversation over msn. I was telling Justin that I missed school life while he was saying he prefers working life. So he said we should change bodies aka Freaky Friday.

Justin was saying that if he had my body he would find out more about the weird happenings I encounter in the gym sauna. And he would use my body as a boytoy and earn lots of money. Ahhhhh!

So I told him that in return, since he does so many plays, I would use his body to find out the truth about the “casting couch”! And I can find out if that is the reason certain actors keep appearing in movies.



Hahahaha it's a good thing that we aren’t thinking of doing a script like that or else it’ll probably degenerate into a very R(A) flick.

Just added another kill to my record.



Poor Gibson, killed after I overdosed him on Ecstasy.  As for Jiongyao, nope I didn’t kill him, but I kidnapped him so that Yaodong can torture him. Oh yes I only torture angmoh gals (like Roxy), not men hahahaha. Oh yes it’s great to be evil.



Basically it was done at a famous abandoned place in Changi. The whole place is eerie.

Look at this pic I took at the shoot. I swear it's not edited....



There's a strange shadow on the left side of it. OMG, it’s like Shutter!

Ahhhhhh I pulled a muscle in my back doing pull-ups yesterday. I know it was bad when I could hear a disturbing sound and suddenly my muscle started aching. I guess that will teach me to keep doing weird forms of pull-ups all the time.

Interestingly, I met up with Charles and James last night to watch “Mad about English” and I was amazed at how the Chinese Physician, Mary deduced her patient had an intervertebral protrusion just by checking his pulse and looking at his tongue. Dun need x-ray at all! Hahahahhaa I need her to check with muscle I pulled.

Anyway it was a very interesting documentary about psychotic indoctrination camps that freaked me out. But I admire the ppl for their tenacity. Of cos whether this is a subset of the community as a whole is something I will not be able to learn from the one-sided nature of the show.

I think I’m psycho.

Yesterday I was about to go for my workout when I was stopped outside a pub by a friend. N since I haven’t seen him in a while, I dropped in and had a couple of Martells.

After that I zipped off to the gym to workout, hahahaa first time I did Pull-ups where I really felt like I was flying. Ooooh my training was damn happening.

Later, my friend messaged me that the pub more happening, got chiobu just came in. So hahaha back to the pub I went to get more fuel into my system.

N now I see what they mean by alcohol can numb ur senses. I could lift heavier weights yesterday effortlessly but this morning I’m waking up with a sore back. Hahahaha gym and alcohol make a lethal combination!

Spent lunch with my fellow NJ Canoeists. It’s always a wonder to me how we could come up with the energy to do training 5 days a week!




Of cos those days were 10 years ago. Yup this is the 98-99 batch of NJ Yandao and Chiobu of NJ. Wow that’s so incredibly long! All the Olympics are making me nostalgic for the adrenaline rush of the race. Wonder if my partner, QQ and I can do this again…. Hahahah yes that's how I looked two years back!

It always so nerve-wracking to see oneself on TV. You always wonder what shots will be shown on the tube.



Anyway here I am as Rick, pretending to be a deliveryman to kidnap Roxy and her mum.



And while my boss was happily torturing the gals, I was at my hideout watching things on my comp. Hmmm what's on my screen, porn? N that’s when Joakim found me and we had our first confrontation.



On our first rehearsal, I actually said “F***” out loud when they burst in on me. Too into the character. Made all of them laugh as they arrested me. Hahaha That would have been a great outtake.



After that it was the interrogation scene, Joakim vs me.
I love the look on my face…. Pure hatred. The veins on my neck were really protruding!



( Yes I wanted to tear Joakim apart! )

Considering the success of Grand Theft Auto 4, it seems inevitable that there should be Grand Theft Auto set in various cities as well. Checked out Grand Theft Auto: Singapore?



Use all new vehicles, like the Duck Tours ride and trishaws. Getting taxis in the game however is as difficult as in real life. The taxis will never stop for you and you can expect them to change to “ON CALL” as soon as they see Reno trying to flag down a cab.

Considering how much trouble you have with cops in GTA4, you can consider the difficulty ramped up in GTA:Sin with ERP Gantries all over the place to track down your vehicle.

Expect more romantic getaways with your gals in Uniquely GTA:Sin. Bring your gal to some of the spas and play mini-games like giving her a backrub. Make sure you rub her the right way or else this is liable to happen!



Also expect no friendly hot dog carts to refill ur life. In GTA:Sin, expect surly aunties pushing dim sum trucks to run over your feet if they feel like it. And dun try to attack those aunties, they may not carry any guns but once they start cursing in Hokkien and whacking you with their umbrellas, its Game Over.



GTA:Singapore, what would you do?

After watching myself on R.E.M last week I realized that I should mention some of the funny stuff that happened off-screen.



Remember the scene where Roxy was tied up? Here’s the chair, and believe me, the chains were freaking heavy! Ikea goods can be used as wonderful S&M toys! We were joking that maybe the whole show was actually a setup to tie her helpless to a chair so we can heh heh heh!
And it was actually supposed to be a more horrific scene cos I actually taped Roxy’s eyelids open with tape. It looked really freaky on tape, especially with her eyes wide open and her non-stop screaming as I forced her eyes to open! Hahaha I guess Kid’s Central should not have such gory sights, else the kids will get nightmares. So u never saw that part! Very SAW-like! I felt so evil....

( More Off-Screen Revelations! )



Ok I’m looking forward to seeing myself in the finale tomolo! Oh boy, it’s gonna be my turn to be locked up. See how S&M this kid’s drama is!

Justin was writing an essay about how external and internal effects influence a company's survival. So I was thinking, if I was to write the essay, I wanna write about vanishing trades. Think about those traditional wooden clogs. They were such a rage with those Samsui women!

Sigh, but now no one uses wooden clogs liao. See all the grandmas in their Havianas. Yup I'm not kidding, I have seen grannys in Havianas hahahaha. Oh those happening New Urban Mamas! And of cos Chinatown ah mahs can be seen everywhere in their garish Crocs.

VS

How can they give up their clogs for Crocs? Think about it! Such a loss of heritage!

1. Clogs make excellent cockroach killers! PIAK!!!!! One shot one kill, they work faster than insecticide.

2. And isn’t it very wrong to be beating those paper dolls of your enemies with Crocs? Hahahaha! OMG, using Crocs would be like giving them a head massage!

So what is ur choice? Clogs vs Crocs! Hey they rhyme!

Went to help Justin with his photoshoot today. He’s directing a play for his school next year and this is the photoshoot for the promotional posters.



Amazing how everything seems on the opposite side of the lens. Having done photoshoots before, I am well accustomed to pandering to the camera. But today I’m not the model. So I just watched and offered some suggestions to the models/actors.

( The photoshoot... )

Yinvonne just uploaded this pic of Xiaobai, herself, me and Jingyao at KTV. Oh my god, just a pic like that brings back so much memories of our time in Bioengineering.

Hahah I should stop listening to emo songs while looking at this picture…… Hahahaha I wanna KTV again!

Remember the Free Hugs Campaign Thomas, Justin and I did in front of Takashimaya?



Well Justin did the video for it but he had problems uploading to Youtube so it’s only available on our Facebook account. So here is the link to the video if you are interested to watch: http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=24504213759



And if you wanna read the whole story about us giving free hugs, you can catch all the gossip in the following two entries:

I hope this brings some cheer to your day!

The REM Wrap Party was a blast! Yup we wrapped filming the week before and Jerilyn (the M in REM) kindly hosted the wrap party at her place.



It was very nice to meet fellow evil-doers. Oh yes, it was a congregation of all things sinister because most of the cast including me were acting as evil ppl in REM. And introductions were very funny cos it was like “Hi, I’m Victor, Episode 12 and 13’s Rick!”



In my episodes, my scenes were mainly with Joakim and Ming. And it was nice to catch up with both of them again. And they play a very mean Guitar Hero!



And the editors rushed to prepare DVDs for the last two episodes for us to watch. N yes those last two episodes are the ones I appeared in. It was kind of interesting watching those episodes with the entire REM universe. Ok I dun have to disclose anything else right now cos it’s gonna be shown on TV tomorrow and next Sunday! Suffice to say that everyone was saying I look very very evil. Hahahaha

Here’s a preview of what we did to Ming (Roxy).

<( And it is freaking SM! )

It’s time for Photohunt. Spot the differences.



crystalliferous and charleswanmushi both said that I posed with the exact same look for those two old pics. Hahahaha here is the entry http://crimsonvelocity.livejournal.com/78203.html.

Oops I did it again. When I went with Nic, Claris and Glenn to the Toys and Comics Convention it seems like I went back into the default pose! Hahahaha



( Photohunt! Spot the differences with the next pic! )

Last weekend I met up with Christabel and Likai for their grad party. They took a Masters in Technopreneurship. Wow, I can learn so much from them. Though I’m working in 3 Startup companies but there’s so much to learn.



Anyway their party was held at the Hard Rock Café. Too bad I dun have a clear picture of us…. But free flow beer tends to make me a crappy photographer hahahaha.



( Drink, Drank, Drunk! )

Free this Saturday? My home is empty and I’m bored.

Let’s have fondue. Accompanied with a nice wine.

As for after dinner entertainment, there’s no lack of entertainment at my place!
U all know my address and as for time, evening? U’re welcome to stay over.

Need to RSVP with me asap. I need to plan!

Edit
Oops Cannot have party liao. I got filming on this weekend.... sigh




 

I haven’t done this for a long time. Guns always please me. I'm sorry, I am just deranged.
