Good comment on my acting

I woke up especially early yesterday because I have a filming. Dewei picked me up and we cabbed to the first location, and we got lost because I conveniently mistaken the gathering location as Hall 4 instead of Canteen A. So we cabbed to Canteen A, only to get lost again. This time we didnt know where the exact gathering place is. Cindy came to bring us. It is actually the old Canteen A. Lol!

The rest of the details of yesterday filming cannot be revealed, so you guys will have to wait till August 2009!

I m surprised and happy to see my xiao di Joseph and Evon coming down to support me, and also poor Dewei for helping me out the entire day, even missing his lunch. thanks alot guys. (",)

After filming we went to Donut Factory for some light snacks. We ordered 6 donuts, which were entirely finished by me and dewei because the two of them didnt want to help us! Faint!

Joseph was very nice today. He treated me bubble tea, for the first time! So I took picture of it, but didnt post here as I want to save it in my hp.

Dinner with Carol, Daniel, Mandy, Boss, Dewei, Evon and Joseph at Vista Point. We had tze char. Very full liao. As usual, Boss always ordered alot of food.

Anyway some unhappy issues happened yesterday. I dont want to elaborate or say who or bitch about the person here but I m glad Boss helped me solve the problem. Boss had been in this industry for more than 10 years. He advise me that this trade is like that, people just like to backstab people due to jealousy and many other factor at time. So stay strong and ignore these type of people.

Just want to share with that person the advise by a well-known celebrity in Singapore; "Remember when you are not famous, please do not behave like a BIG STAR! Even if you are famous, you also have to be humble and take care of your junior."

Thanks the director Siang Hui for your good comment on my acting. This is my first time involved in drama acting and thanks for the opportunity and guidance. (",)

One last thing, I really hope you all can understand me sometimes. I really do try my best to try to cater time to each and everyone of you. But sometimes when I really cant, I hope you all dont get emo or what because it makes me really sad and I dont like that kind of feeling. Always remember, there is always a next time. 来日方长. it is not as if you will not see me anymore or what. So please, give me a break sometimes. Thanks.

Been rather busy lately. I told Yujing, I can feel my body crumbling yesterday. Totally shacked out. Today is a resting day for me as Pin Ming Laoshi and Teacher John Lee both not free, as I told them that I might have filming. Hoping to see both of you next Tuesday. Oh ya! Next Tuesday, I will be attending the TV acting class at Mediacorp. Need to learn and upgrade my talent skills to catch up with the industry. Hope everybody can also learn something new in their life too!

Be her weapon to fight the war!

Photobucket

Feisty Princess needs bullets to fight, be her weapon!

Write-up from http://ourfeistyprincess.com/index.php

I thought over, probably a couple hundreds of times wondering how to write this entry. At the end of the day, I still have no idea what to write.

Truth is when I first saw the email sent by Dr Aung on the amount needed to bring Charmaine to New York for treatment, I was shocked. $350,000 is the upfront deposit. I weren’t sure what currency it was in. Sent Jolene and Charlene a text message, ending the message with “I would give up if it is in USD”.

And of course, the bad news never ends.

$350,000 USD.

Half a million Singapore dollars.

How would I ever be able to raise this amount of sum? How do I convince anyone that Charmaine’s life is worth half a million dollars? I don’t know how. I seriously don’t know how. So many times, I want to give up. I don’t know how to think. I don’t know what to think. I don’t want to think. I don’t dare to think.

A week has passed since I received the email and I know I have already procrastinated a week away and made no progress.

I am brought up to think rationally and weigh my decisions against benefits and cost. Rationally speaking, I know fully well that half a million dollars can be better spent on saving thousands of malnourished kids in Africa than on Charmaine who only has a 40-50% chance of survival even with the antibody in New York.

But Charmaine is my daughter. No amount of money can justify how important she is to me. And Jase. Despite Jase’s young age and maturity, I know fully well that he loves his mei mei just as much as I do.

I would do just about anything to save her. I thought about selling my kidney, being a surrogate mom. They may sound stupid and crazy but my conscience feels so much better with me earning that USD $350,000 because I cannot think of any rational reason to convince you to help me save Charmaine.

I really thought of giving up. Its so much more easier and I am so tired.

I don’t want to think about anything anymore. Its easier just remembering the next doctor’s appointment, the next time for medication, the next time to pay the bills and just things I can do without thinking…

I even avoided Jolene and Charlene for a week because I have no answer for them. Their suggestion to go public and seek for help. My permission to allow them to publicise the materials.
Even as I am typing right now, I don’t exactly know what am I doing. I don’t know what I have decided. I don’t know the consequences of me typing this.

The only thing I know for sure is that should anything happen to Charmaine, I would never be able to forgive myself for not trying to fight for Charmaine when all she has to help her is me.

This is the very reason why I am typing this.

Dear friends, please help Jase and me to save Charmaine.

Thank you.
Cynthia Lim

A message from Elson Soh

I hope that those who read my blog today, you can help Charmaine to fight her war! She needs us, regardless of donation or encouragement message. Do visit her blog and her website to understand more about her.

EMEFC will be participating in the fund raising for Charmaine by selling our fanclub latest edition souvenirs. The fanclub will donate 50 sets of limited edition souvenirs with Elson Soh's autograph on it. 100% sale will be donated to Charmaine as part of her medical fees. Do support us, so that we can also contribute to her medical fees.

Apart from that, I sincerely hope that my supporters and readers can also help to post the sidebar banner at your blog or any online site. Thank you for reading and the kind assistance given to Charmaine! (",)
