Cast Outing

One of the ways to get to noe people better is when u do things together and have a common goal (some say common enemy).

This morning we visited the theatre we were going to perform at. It felt so good. Cos there was lots of space on the stage, in the wings and in the dressing rooms. We just have to fill it.

Later when we finished, we went to Ah Teng's at Raffles Hotel. It's really a nice little cafe obviously trying to look like a kopi-tiam, its price list failing miserably. But ok la, the atmosphere is nice, i don't mind goin more often.

After having 'breakfast', we headed straight to Alex Eating house to have the Char Siew Rice that J loves. And he certainly got us all excited. It was so funny.

I learnt a lot of new things today. About people and about my jokes and about tearing coupons. I'm beginning to enjoy the people i'm meetin in this production. But i guess the most important thing is to put up a good show. So that when these good people meet up to talk/gossip/talk, we will associate the memory with having put up an awesome show, just like with Sing to the Dawn.

tearing coupons requires lots of thought and many hands

Chippy


Awake, and not looking at my cam.

Chippy was given to me by my friend Sof. Chip actually belonged to her neighbour who was goin overseas to study. That was 2 years ago. Chip was named 'Chip' cos he has an identification chip planted in his ear. He's very sweet, possessing some interesting human-like traits.

Firstly, he snores like one. Also, he knows how to knock on the door and wait for the door to be opened. I think that is so gentlemanly.

His eating habits will have to be his weakest link. cos as long as you have food, you can get Chippy to do almost anything.

Anyway, dear friend, meet Chippy. =)

Souffle


my dear Souffle

So i spent the last two days thinking about my Souffle (in case you didn't noe, that's the name of my iPod Shuffle). Cos i thought i lost it. I was so sad and worried and felt like kicking myself cos it didn't come cheap and losing it is simply not an option.

I found it in my shoe-bag. I have no idea what it was doing there. Only that i brought my shoe-bag to rehearsals one day and i guess i must have placed Souffle into it after using. And then i forgot all about it.

Souffle goes jogging with me, helps me learn up my songs and makes me feel and look cool. What would i do without u? Hee. But now i don't have to think about that you are found. Yippee!

Going Fishing

So, a bunch of my church friends are going fishing next Sunday. Most of them are married couples and couples behaving like they are married. in any case, they were shopping for some crab cages. u noe, the type that catches crabs.


A: (holding up a cage) how about this one?

B: (all knowledgeable) oh, this one is not so good. You can only catch one with it.

A: Woah, how come so lousy one?

C: (hazarding a guess) I know i know! Is it cos after u catch one, the others crabs will realise that it's a trap. Then they will not fall for it.

D: so it will work for copy-crabs!

Cheryl and her musicals

Well, i was looking through my very messy Picasa and realised that i have a few photos tt most haven't seen, i think.

Those of my musicals. Every year in SMU, i take part in something. And trust me, all are very fun. I don't have pictures of my blue hair. Perhaps it was deliberate cos i don't remember enjoying that one very much. Also, it's not exactly counted cos i didn't act. only sang.

This tracks my growth in SMU. And many fond memories of people, people and people. I think that's what threatre is about in the end. It's about people. It's either the people u perform with, or the people you perform for.

Anything Goes is my last SMU production.

I just got a new camera

which means i'l be posting a lot more pictures now. pictures of my fabulous life and interesting stories, coupled with visuals. hee hee.

and i just realised the most interesting thing about my new cam. that its batteries last about 45 mins! whoo hoo!

haha. but i have no complaints. the reason y it ran out so quickly this time was cos i was learning how to use the menu and all the functions.

ok, now i have to bathe. and if i have the energy, i'l even watch a few episodes of Sex and the City. I'm so damn happy!

another one of the three pairs i made while i was ill.

The Verdict is Out

this is goin to sound bimbo.

but it turns out that my green bag is indeed perfect. and i'm truly a domesticated person. today i was feeling like baking. but then in the end i didn't. i sewed a bag instead. how i wish i owned a digicam or a camera phone. then i can show it to u. but hmmm....

i'm still in my search for someone to pass on a white elephant digicam.

and...now i'm goin to pack my room. i shall heartlessly throw out the things that i don't need and clear out some space. i love for my room to look sparse.

then, i'l indulge myself in Sex & the City. hee. Life after exams is good.

Can't sleep

hee. had rehearsal from 1pm to 10pm today. then i complained about how i need rest and all that. and here i am at 4.50am in the morning, dunno doing wat.

the vocal trainer has already mentioned that a lack of sleep will affect the voice quality. but it's not that i want.

i can't sleep. i dunno why.

so i decided to drink some Choya. hee. my favourite alchoholic drink.

in the meantime, i made 2 pairs of earrings. i wish i had a digicam at my disposal so that i can take a picture and post it. but then, too bad. i'l have to wait for B to return from Aussie and then i can use her camera phone.

i also painted my toe-nails. black. for the purpose of contrasting with my new green filp-floppies.

tomorrow i'l go and get a triple shot latte (skinny). hopefully that will energise me.

my head is getting giddy. perhaps i'l go lie down. and give sleeping another try.
