MidValley 's Toilet

Haven't not been to Midvalley for a while.

Who knows I found 2 interesting stories to share on my visit to the Midvalley Megamall ladies toilet at the Ground floor. I am not sure whether they happened in the Man's toilet or not.

Story 1

Have you realised that the G Floor toilets have big gaps in between the doors that people outside can easily see you are "doing business" inside.

Ya, is "SEE" as the gap is about 1cm in width that you do not need to "PEEP" to see what is going on inside the toilet. I can actually see people passing by while I was inside the toilet and I felt very insecure. It is as if I am doing my "nature call business" in the public.

I am wondering, didn't anyone complain about this before? Or hasn't anyone realised about this before?

Story 2

This is nothing new.

I was queuing for the toilet paper. The lady in front of me took a very long time to take the toilet paper. Well, at a situation like this, we will "kei po" and see what is happening. I saw this aunty, taking her own sweet time, rolling up a lot of toilet papers and put inside her bag. I think she did not realise that I was standing behind her for quite some time.

By thinking not to embarrass her, I made noise with my footsteps pretending I was just about to reach the place to take toilet paper. After I took small piece of mine, she continued to take more.

Erm...I am speechless. >.<

《恋爱》之《来不及做的爱》回忆篇

《来不及做的爱》结束到现在，已经一个月了。

感觉上好像已经过了很久。

我想

是空虚吧。。。

重听《来不及做的爱》的音乐歌曲，戏里的一切，好像历历在目。

尤其是那首 Bruce Springsteend 的 Secret Garden， 唤回了我在戏里Elaine的情绪。

我依然放不下Elaine。

放不下Elaine 在看心理医生，被唤起回忆的那刻。

也是我最喜欢的一幕。

Secret Garden渐渐响起

Elaine慢慢地抬头，看着远方

回忆一点一滴的回来

错综复杂的情绪涌上心头

眼泪含在眼眶

喉咙开始哽咽

嘴唇徐徐颤抖

当情绪刚满到将要泄出来时

情绪立刻切断

转到年轻青涩的角色

内心藏着纯纯恋爱的感觉

那时悲伤的情绪无法完全的释放出来

哽在喉头

久久不能平复

那时是这样

到了现在依然如此

也许

这种悲伤

比凄凉地大哭

更凄惨

更能触动人心

曾经有一度感到很疑惑，为什么导演会用这首歌来让我们感受爱的感觉。

这么知道这首歌竟然变成了触动我内心深出的一首歌。

我的姑婆屋

近年来有好多的身边的朋友结婚了。

有些还左手牵着一个，右手抱着一个孩子。

我常常在想，这真的很不可思议。

到底是怎么样的一种动力或魔力，会让一个人下怎么大的一个决心，愿意和另一个人度过余生？

他们还把求婚过程和爱的故事，通过网站，面子书，让大家一起分享他们的喜悦。

我问过几个将要结婚或已经结了婚的朋友。

我很好奇

到底他们是怎么知道，他或她就是你的另一半？

到底他们是怎么知道，是时候要和这一个人迈入另一个人生阶段？

为什么他们能那么确定，他或她就是你要一起到老的那个人？

有一个朋友回答说，妈妈叫她不要再选了。

找到一个好的，就嫁吧！你以为你还年轻啊？！

Hm....好无奈的答案。

有一个朋友回答说，你到了那时就会知道的了。

你会知道他就是你要一起度过余生的那个人。

Hm....好玄的答案。

我不了解。。。

我从来对婚姻都不存任何幻想。

自我懂事以来，我一直都在规划着要买一间“姑婆屋”。

我从来不觉得自己会结婚。

当每次别人问我的未来生活，我的脑海里浮现的就只有我的屋子，还有我和我的狗狗。

可能从小就看到太多婚姻不美满的例子。

长大拍拖之后也觉得两个人相处实在是很不容易，更别说结婚后住在一起。

是我太孤僻了吗？

还是我太爱自由？

当然我还是会为那些找到另一半的人开心。

那是一种莫大的福气。

茫茫人海，找到对的人，必然是前生修来的福。

也许，是我的福气还没到而已。

Taylor's Celebration - Body & Foot Massages

Can you imagine that you can have all the body massage, foot reflexology, manicure and pedicure services in your company or in a university campus?

Enjoying the foot massage~~

因为我是水瓶座

那晚我，Jean和准准聊到比较晚。

这也让我了解到了他们俩背后的一些故事和一些想法。

一个是对水瓶座很有怨气的人

一个是很水瓶座的人

而我，也从他们身上找到了我寻找已久的答案。

我常觉得

自己的想法有时会有点奇怪

我常觉得

我的性格有时会有点问题

我常压抑我自己

我常说服我自己

因为我竟然低估了自己的想法而试着去迁就别人，迁就这个社会。

原来，原本的我是一个礼物。

我糟蹋了这份礼物。

就在那晚，我释怀了。

我找到答案了。

因为我是水瓶座。

《恋爱》之《来不及做的爱》完结篇

不知不觉地《恋爱》已经结束了，完美地画上了句号。

大家依依不舍地，收拾了自己的戏服，帮忙收拾了后台，也非常合作地帮忙把东西都搬上车。

收拾完毕，和平常排练完一样， 我们依然去喝一喝茶，聚一聚。

这是我们的最后一晚。

过了今晚，也许不会再有机会会那么完整地聚在一起了。

要哭也哭过了。

要给的拥抱也给过了。

剩下的就只有嘻嘻哈哈地享受大家还能聚在一起的那几个小时了。

大家能在某一段时间的某一个地方一起有默契地在进行某一件事

是一件难得的事

是一件需要莫大的缘分才能完成的事

是一件非常美妙的事

虽然短暂，但这件美丽的事却会永存于心。

也为我们的人生画图里，画上一幅美丽的插图。

衍任，我，准准，Jean, Tee，当然还有彦利

《恋爱》之《来不及做的爱》省思

当初明明因为欣赏另一方的某一点，而爱上他。

可是为何今天会因为当初的这一点，而变成分开导火线呢？

童话和漫画都会描述一对情侣排除万难，轰轰烈烈地为了在一起而奋斗。

当故事到了快乐的结局，说这对情侣永远快乐的在一起时，却从没说过他们在结婚后所面对的现实问题。

王子和公主真的永远快乐地在一起吗？

也许，爱情最大的考验是时间，是现实吧！

就曾爱还未凉之前，曾爱还来得及之前，好好珍惜吧！

以后的事，有谁又会知道呢？！

《恋爱》之《来不及做的爱》演出 Day 1& 2

今天已经是第二场了。

记得在前两天总彩排时，一切不是很顺利。

挫败感很重，情绪一阵很低落。

太久没上舞台，被陌生的舞台压倒。

准备上台，培养情绪时，也用错了方法，一味让自己被戏里的情绪带领自己。

回到家，一直告诉自己一定要控制舞台，不可以让舞台吓到我。

到了昨天首演前，我努力的踩台，当然也谢谢衍任老师的指导。

我要让舞台知道，我是舞台的主人。

我享受

高高地站在舞台上表演。

我享受

灯光打在我身上的炽热感。

我享受

观众投射在我身上的目光。

我享受

观众被我带动情绪的满足感。

终于，首演非常顺利。

导演看了也情绪起伏，忍不住到外头抽了三根烟。

朋友看了，连赞有惊喜。

有人说，我有压场，成功地牵引了观众的情绪。

晓薇SMS说: “看见你在台上有莫名的感动。Good show girl.”

今天的第二场演出也非常顺利。

有人因我们的回忆戏而落泪。

作为演员，最感动的莫过于能牵引观众的情绪，引起观众的共鸣。

明天是第三天了，还有四场。

要加油了。

时间过得好快。

我开始有点舍不得了。

《恋爱》之《来不及做的爱》

久违了，舞台剧。 我回来了！

最近有幸地参与了一部名为《恋爱》的舞台剧。

在《恋爱》里，会由三位不同的编导兼导演针对《恋爱》这个主题呈现三部不同风格的舞台剧。

这三部剧有 ：《叫猫头鹰的女子》，《来不及做的爱》和《第100天》。

《恋爱》海报

而我所参与的舞台剧是《来不及做的爱》。

单单听题目就知道我们这部剧不简单啦！

它是讲述一对现实生活中的配偶和一台24小时上演爱情故事的巨型电视，相互映辉，互相需要着。他们毫不怀疑，努力创造丰富的爱情动作。

《来不及做的爱》宣传海报

《来不及做的爱》演员们和导演。

这次的舞台剧让我有非常不同的感受。

这次的角色对我而言，还蛮新鲜的，不太容易掌握。再加上已经有几年没演戏来了，所以很富挑战性。

而且，这个角色和我一贯的表演方式非常不一样。

我们的导演-叶准准，让我对表演有了不一样的体会。他每次都会讲出我从来不曾想到的表演方式，让我体会到原来表演也可以有这么多层次，同样的情绪却可以有么多的表现方法。

他给我们很多的自由的空间去发挥，让我们用很多不同的表演方式来呈现同一个故事情节。

刚开始会有一些迷茫，可是却是一种很好的训练，训练演员必须消化剧本及加于思考。

很感谢导演非常极度有耐性地一直在指导我们。

《来不及做的爱》包括我，总共有四个演员。

除了我，个个都是响当当红人哦：

1. Douglas 王衍任
- 讲笑三人组成员
- 曾担任印尼耶加达师资培训戏剧讲师
- 执导《彩虹儿童剧场》、《神奇咒语没问题》、《神奇女侠玛丽安》等等儿童剧
- 曾以“冬冬哥哥”一角与红姐姐搭档演出超过80场的
- 近期作品：《白雪公主第十五章》、《等爱》

2. Tee 翁诗传
- 马来西亚明星偶像十强人马
- 第一届YEAH 杂志阳光美少男季军
- 目前是自由身演员兼电视广告模特儿
- 曾参与的电视剧演出如：《Lot 9》、《如有雷同》等等。
- 曾参与过的广告拍摄如：Petronas 平面广告，Volkswagen 平面广告等等
- 舞台剧作品：《等爱》

3. Jean 陀韵妮
- 2009年大马华裔小姐殿军Jean陀韵妮
- 模特儿及兼职撰稿员兼业余主持人

4. Gwen 叶慧君

- 。。。（我没那么红啦，只是稍有舞台经验而已。）:>

非常开心能和他们三个和导演有缘聚在一起，我们就好像一家人一样。

和他们在一起，我有感觉到一阵温暖。是我离开了大学戏剧班之后，就再也没有感受到了。

《恋爱》全体演员导演们

演出日期已经逼在眉稍。

所以大家加油啦！

Sweet Escape 2010 @ Bali

This is my 1st ever company trip and I am going to Bali....again~~~!

I have been to Bali last year in May with my buddies. For going to Bali this time, I will have about RM200++ deducted from my 2 months salary.

The reason why I decided to go again is because we are staying in Hard Rock!!

Yeeepie~~!

Big guitar and radio right in front of the main entrance of Hard Rock Hotel

Rock Shop of Hard Rock Hotel

To be in Bali for only THREE days is just not enough.

We only managed to do some shopping at Kuta area and went for a spa & massage session.

We do not even have the leisure time to swim in the beautiful Hard Rock Hotel swimming pool. >.<

Us @ Jimbaran. Gald to have them with me in the trip. They are just fun to be with.

Us @ Tanah Lot with our newly met colleague from Sri Hartamas campus.

Spa & Massage session in Halo Bali @ Kuta

Visiting Bali for the 2nd time, I felt totally different if compare with the 1st visit.

The 1st visit last year, I felt that Bali is just a wonder place. The food is sooooo good and the people there are so nice and kind.

But, for this time, I do not know why, every food that I put into my mouth, is a disappointment. It just does not taste the same as it used to be at all.

About the people, I had being chased out by them who are selling things along Kuta street. As their price are excessively high (RM100 for 2 super-low quality t-shirt), if you try to bargain, they would give you those unfriendly face and asked you to buy from some other places.

Maybe the tour guide that brought us visiting Bali last year had did a great job in promoting Bali by showing us all the beautiful side of Bali.

Interesting window display @ Kuta

Beautiful view at Tanah Lot 1

Beautiful view at Tanah Lot 2

Something interesting that I found in the flight while I was on my way to Malaysia.

Jacob's Walk of Life - 1 Malaysia Sihat

Just came back from Jacob's Walk of Life - 1 Malaysia Sihat which was held at FRIM Kepong.

We are tired not because of the walk, we are super sleepy as all of us woke up at 5.30am++ just to be there to join the walk. Unfortunately, we did not manage to join the walk as we were late for registration.

We reached FRIM at about 7am++. The registration closed at 7.30am.

We did not manage to find parkings and in the end even though we found one, we walked for a very long distance from the parking space to the registration counter as there were so many people who came for the walk. By the time we reach the registration counter, it was almost 8am.

We queued for registration but the organiser did not allow us to do so as we were late and the walk had already started. There were a lot of participants who were in the same situation like us.

We were a bit frustrated but there was nothing we can do. The others were very angry. I can foresee there will be a lot of complaints in the media (online & offline) on this Jacob's Walk after this.

I think the organiser should have pre-alert us on the parking issues and the estimated number of people who will be attending so that we can pre-plan our trip. We were not late, we were there early before 7.30am. We cannot foresee there were so many time wasted at the parking and walking to the registration counter.

In the end, we were able to take the T-shirts and the goodies bags but not joining the walk.

Therefore, we ended up wandering around the activity area where there were booths and Fitness First Warm-down demonstration on the stage.

Us and the goodies bags (Jacob's biscuit, Kiwi fruit, Anlene Milk and some vouchers)

Cute Jacob's costumes

MTV Shooting @ Port Dickson

Had a sweet escape to PD last weekend.

I was volunteering for 真善美MTV shooting with my 2 other frens.

All the songs in the 真善美 CD Album are very popular among us who organised Buddhist camps.

The songs come along with interesting sign-languages and dances. Young Buddhist Association of Malaysia (YBAM) has produced MTVs for all the songs and these two songs in PD were the last two.

Other than three of us, there was a group of youngsters from local universities.

We got along very well fortunately even though the age gap was about 8 years in average :)

It was certainly a fun experience. Regardless of the shooting, the beautiful scenery in Teluk Kemang and Tanjung Tuan was really worth going.

Hope that we can watch the MTV pretty soon~~

A scene during sunset that we need to eat watermelon.
We were holding the watermelon for about half an hour that we were not allow to eat until the Director say Yes and Action!

Happy Us

Beautiful scenery at Teluk Kemang, Port Dickson

Interesting scenery on Light House at Tanjung Tuan, Malacca

Spectacular View

Action!

Cannes 2010 Predictions Reel

Last night I have attended a very special event organised by Leo Burnett.

The event was held in Taylor's Lakeside Cmapus.

The event is to showcased Cannes Lions Predictions Reel - a compilation of 50 of the best advertising work from around the world including TV commercials, digital and ground activation programmes and various other communication mediums, which the network feels will most likely win a Cannes Lions award.

The interesting part of the event was everyone that was invited to the event was assumed the mantle of Creative Director for the night. The guests were invited to pass judgement on the works.

LB even printed a name card for each of their guests with the position of Creative Director on the card itself.

Tan Kien Eng, CEO of Leo Burnett, Arc Worldwide, Singapore, Malaysia.

Here are some interesting videos that were showed last night that I found worth sharing :

Expensive Nescafe Ice

How much do you think a Nescafe Ice cost at a normal kopitiam?

No air-cond, no expensive food. Just normal kopitiam that we have noodles or economy rice.

When the Indonesian waiter came to me and asking me RM2.40 for the Nescafe Ice, me and my colleague were stunned and cannot believe what we had heard. I looked at the waiter and asked for a few times to double confirm whether I have heard it wrongly.

At other normal kopitiam, a cup of hot Nescafe will cost about RM1.60. The highest price that they can go will just to RM1.80. This RM2.40 Nescafe Ice is just too much. Even the waiter agreed with me that they tauke are charging too much. It is way too expensive for a normal kopitiam like this.

Other than the Nescafe, this 新福成茶餐室 located at Mentari Sunway which is very near to Leisure Commerce Square also charged RM2.00++ for a can of soft drinks!

Big Con

Last month, I came across a website which asked me to put in my mobile number to win a 3Gs iPhone.

After keying in my number, I received sms asking me to confirm the submission by replying the email. I did the same for this and was innocently thinking that i might able to win an iPhone. With the TWO sms that were sent to me by the content provider, it charges me RM8 per sms which I am totally do no aware of.

When my phone bill came, I then realised that the TWO sms costs me RM8 per sms.

I was very shock on how expensive the sms are.

During that time, I comforted myself thinking it is okay, this big con just cost your RM16. Just take it as a lesson.

My April Phone Bill on the External Content Provider section

A few weeks after that, i received TWO sms again from this content provider by asking me to download free ringtones, images...etc. It stated RM8 in the each sms and I was thinking, Sh*t! This time really big con already. The company is still charging me without my permission.

So, I have decided to sms "Unsubscribe" to this 36181. Then it asked me to sms "STOP" to stop the service.

I did it as told. Then, it sms me back and asked me to type "STOP ALL" to stop all services. I did it as told too.

Finally, it sms me back by saying I have successfully unsubscribe.

I thought I will have to pay another RM16 for the TWO stupid sms that was sent to me.

When I have my May phone bill, I have found that this 36181 have already charged me RM48 for all those sms and the sms were just asking you to download ringtones and images from their website.

My May Phone Bill on the External Content Provider section

What kind of sms that need to charge RM8? They are not those mms with pictures or musics. They are just normal sms with just a few texts asking you to go their website to download stuff. Do they need to charge RM8??!!

I complaint to Maxis and also call to the number 03-20722617 to ask for refund.

It is not refundable as the terms & conditions were stated very clearly in the website which I have overlooked on it.

So, alright I admitted that i have been so careless that I did not read on the terms & conditions.

But, to me this company is not doing the right thing as they are waiting for people like me to fall into the trap:

1. Firstly, the T&C were at the bottom that the subscribers might overlook on it. As a normal practise for those company who want to charge the users for the sms, the T&C normally will appear at a very prominent place to make sure that the subscribers are totally alert about the charges.
2. Secondly, RM8 for a sms?! Do you still think that they are not trying to con people? I doubt it!

Here are the BIG CON company's info:

http://www.wixawin.com/pages/Default.aspx?lan=MY&tid=47_iPhone3Gs

When I Google Search on the number 36181 or 03-20722617, I found out that this Big Con have been happening since 2006. Since it has been happening since 2006 and the company is being fined but why this company is still active and conning people around??!!
