TV Drama of the Year

Some of us may be following closely the current blockbuster on TV8 - The Little Nyonya. This is one of the biggest production by MCTV this year and so much publicity and hype was given to it that it somehow, propelled the lead actress/actors to stardom ...viewership also hit new records... thatz why in life, we need this kinda of 'gui ren' help. Of course, it cuts both ways, cos if the output was no good, more harm could have been done. Check out the following post on the roadshow ...

Personally, I dun think this is a 'super brilliant' show cos there are flaws throughout - the much talked about rape scene of yuzhu was 'no big deal' (it could have been c'ensored') and the story line towards the end seem somewhat 'illogical' (to me), and the extras/cala-fe are like the 'same faces' (and I ask - can they act?)...sometimes, MCTV should look beyond ...and there are talents (ahem! *dreaming again*) out there... still kudos to most of the casts in there - good work!

Young and 'Rich'?

I am sure some of us would scramble for items during branded stores' sales. Just yesterday, I was at Vivo and most of the top notch brands - ZARA, RIVER ISLAND, GAP etc...are having sales... I popped in to kaypoh to see if I can find anything suitable and I was shocked. shocked. shocked. So many young guys/ladies (some b/lians and many students-alike) are there too...I wonder how come where they are so 'rich' and have the money to buy...(maybe, that's why they go for sale items?)... Back to my younger days, where got such luxury ...or maybe, I am obiang lor and do my shopping at CHINATOWN with the little money that parents give...haha...think parents nowadays are loading their children with $ and material items to compensate for their 'lack of time' with them.
I used to envy 'rich' people till my wise wife enlightens me... don't be deceived cos one may be driving a posh car and living in a big house but paying through his nose/health just to 'rear' it ... is that the life we want? slogging and slogging for material needs. Many will say yes. It is the vicious cycle - as one earns more, they spend more, and when they do so, they work harder to earn, and neglect their health and so on .... is it worth it?

Words

I guess I must be the only one who has no pics in my blog...haha...no wonder it aint populated with readers. Also, me still quite nerdy about uploading pics etc...think I must start to learn liao, else really kenna phased out by the IT wave. I feel that I can express better through words than verbally ...and such, many of you will know that I am actually not a good presenter/talker/communicator...and I get cold feet during management presentations or giving speeches. Also, I dun think I have good memory skills...and thus, maybe, that's why I can't be an actor...
