誠に有り難うございます!

WOOHOO~! can i just begin by saying this is like, totally MINDBLOWINGLY MINDBLOWING!?!? so Straits Times interviewed me for their X’mas Special a couple of weeks ago, followed by a photoshoot last week (real fun and thankfully the dark clouds held up!) but I didn’t expect that it’ll be this HUGE (sorry trees!). I scared myself shitless when I flipped open the papers this morning (just before i went to bed actually, and then i had trouble getting to sleep so i was so scared and excited at the same time)!
i’ve received quite a few varied comments about the article and they ranged from: “CONGRATS!!!” to “NICE WHEELS!” to “YOU LOOK PRIM PROPER AND RESERVED!” to “YOU LOOK A LIL COCK-EYED!” to “YOU LOOK CONSTIPATED!” and the funniest of the lot: “YOU DUN LOOK LIKE YOU BUT I ONLY KNEW IT WAS YOU COS I RECOGNISED THOSE PIERRE HARDY SHOES!!!!”
whatever the comments, thank you for sharing the excitement. =)) i do agree the smile appeared a tad lethargic and “forced”. my smile is usually bigger and brighter (ahem)…. but that’s cos we friggin’ took over a 100 shots!! try smiling for 2 hours. you’d get stiff-mouth too hor! if there’s any consolation, i think Ziyi Zhang looked fat a few pages after me. *evil laughter*

I would like to thank Phei Phei & Jun Liang for the very flattering article and the opportunity to be part of this feature spread. also, everyone who has sms-ed, called, tweeted and FB-ed about the article. special thanks to my Ah Mah who went out to the market to grab a copy early in the morning although she doesn’t read English. and Elaine for grabbing a copy and lugging it around in the plastic bag the whole day. hahaha.
the photos i’ve uploaded to FB got downscaled, so they weren’t very clear. here’s a bigger image of the text for those who requested to have a better view of the article.

I don’t have any concrete plans at the moment though, and still think I am quite inexperienced. =)
Gotta meet-up some day. I have much to learn from you!

Sorry, I took so long to finally look at this. I did note that you restarted your blogging, but somehow didn’t take note of the address at that time. Better late than never.
I love how you shared your story about your dad. I know how difficult that can be, but it can also serve as an inspiration for others to “forgive and forget”, and not let old issues stop us from moving on.
Congrats my dear friend. You deserve it all!!
