Unwell

Something quite terrible happened to me during lunch today. I was eating and suddenly I felt a pain in my throat and I went to the toilet to vomit then through the process I spat out some blood. I think my throat's bleeding from within.

I couldnt sing now as my vocal chords hurt. I'm having on off fever also. Just feeling so unwell.

Hope I can pull through this period and get in time to prepare for my exams in 7 days.

:(

Stop Whaling!

A week after my new haircut, it's time to reveal my new look! :)

Is the new me!!! Tada!

Presenting to you, my new hairstyle!

Nice anot? I felt quite weird when I first got this hairstyle but I've since grown used to it and even began liking it. Lol.

Been quite emo today. I dont know what's happening. Too much stress on me. Exams is just 9 days away and I feel totally unprepared. I dont know if it's just mentally and psychologically or is it true that I'm indeed unprepared. I fear failure. I fear I may not make it through. I fear many things.

It doesnt help much when people you love and care adds stress to you. Perhaps I cared too much about people's feelings. So when someone I cared for feels unhappy and stress, I feel sucky not being able to help him/her and I end up feeling like shit myself. That's what I'm going through now. Haiz.

Nevermind. Side tracked abit.

Since creating the Facebook group "Save Our Earth" (Click to Join), I've been doing some extensive research on how can we all do our part to help save the Earth. One way of saving the Earth comes by saving the animals.

Came across this web with a campaign to save the whales from lethally being killed. Whales are constantly being killed by humans for food, resources and other uses. What we dont realised is the fact that by doing so, we are inevitably bringing them to the verge of extinction.

They have no right, no say. We decide if they live or die. We decided if they should disappear from this planet. We are the ones responsible for them. They, are innocently and helplessly murdered each day. All we could do is to watch in despair.

But we can do our part as a small community online.

All you have to do is to take a photo of you making a "whale tail" sign or symbol and upload your photo to www.tailsforwhales.org (Click HERE)

Like me:

I've taken mine. Have you?

How can our photo be of help?

Tails for Whales is a global campaign running across every country in the world. We have the support of many members of Government as well as some of the world’s most familiar faces. And the more people like you become a part of this, the harder it becomes to ignore.

By adding your photo you’re becoming part of a worldwide people power movement petitioning governments everywhere to conserve and protect whales once and for all and showing them that, when they do, they have the support of people like you behind them.

Not only that, you may find yourself appearing on the Advertisement made by IFAW on TV!

Be part of the community today.

Save lives, help others!

Star Awards 2010 观后感

Caught the 2nd Star Awards (红星大奖) 2010 today on TV. Had stayed home for the day because I wasnt feeling very well. Watching the Star Awards has been a yearly affair for me since young and this year proved to be as entertaining and exciting as well. I wished I could be part of the show because it's just too enticing just by sitting there and watching it.

Here are the results for the night:

In general, I felt that everyone who won deserved to win for one reason or the other. However I also feel that not winning an award doesnt mean you are not good or that you do not work hard enough, it's just that, there can only be one "award taker" and perhaps it's just lack of fate and lady luck. The fact that you are still in the job proves that you have indeed worked hard enough and put in enough effort (that's why you are not fired), the trophy is just a source of encouragement. So for those who dont get it, must work harder and those who got it, must work even harder!

Personally, I felt happy that some of my favourites won! For one, I like Zhu Hou Ren alot. His acting is superb! He is one of the few veterans who can take on any role, anytime, anywhere and portray it 110% well. The others whom I felt the same are Edmund Chen, Huang Wen Yong, Zheng Ge Ping, Lee Nan Xing and Chen Han Wei. Zhu Hou Ren's role as a dementia father-in-law is just so funny that even watching the trailers makes me laugh. It's so deep rooted in my mind even though this show was broadcasted some time ago.

Chen Han Wei is also one of my all time favourite actor. I like how he can act as a gambler and lousy dad in one show and then a AIDS patient and a caring dad in the other. Both won great plaudits from everyone. He winning of the Best Actor Award is truly deserving!

I'm also happy my friend Dennis Chew aka Aunty Lucy won the Top 10 most popular male artiste award! I'm so proud of him. He's been working very hard being a DJ at 93.3FM on one side and being Aunty Lucy at another and Dennis Chew at one more side. Congrats congrats!!! (",)

I'm happy for Elvin for having won too. I've personally heard of the effort he puts in in his work. He is a workaholic and that alone deserves alot of respect. Though he faced many criticisms all the time, he has never gave up and never stopped improving. Today, I'm happy to see him on stage.

Not forgetting my few idols whom I've supporting all these while. Like Felicia Chin, Zheng Ge Ping, Quan Yi Feng, Vivian Lai etc. You have all done well! Congrats!

JJ Lin gave an impressing Live performance as usual and lastly, other invited stars of the night like Mark Chao, Li-Ching, Mi Xue, Godfrey Tsao etc all graced the event beautifully, making it a successful and eventful night!

Overall Rating: 4.5/5
