For some reason, listening to Bei Ji Xue by Kelly Chen always brings me back to sitting on the bus to Amherst, staring out of the window at the frost and thinking pensive thoughts (and also hating the long bumpy ride out).

And for some reason, taking days off always makes me feel guilty T_______T

Anyway today is about how glad I am that I have a day job wtf.
I had lots of fun shooting my Project Alpha segment! It was very fun and glam running all over the place pretending to be famous. And the best part was definitely the makeup artists Janice and Lin T3T God how I loved having someone spoil me and let me just sit down while they do my makeup and hair and keep fluffing my hair, powdering my nose whatever the whole day *big shiny eyes
This is the life wtf. *stretches toes
But aihhh I am just not cut out for it.
I smile too much, laugh too loud, speak too quickly and fidget too much to look presentable on camera.
If you stick a camera in my face and ask me to pose, I freeze and put up two fingers in a peace sign.
If you push a big conspicious microphone in my face, I stare at you blankly.
There’s always threads trailing below my skirt and my bra strap is always showing wtf.
Aih especially the fidgeting! I learned in a Presentations Skills class that the more you fidget, the younger you look. No wonder people think I’m a kid! It’s not my face because apparently I look old wtf, it’s my fidgeting (and height wtf)
So. No celebrity life for me. Thank you god for letting me have a job that doesn’t require looking good wtf.
But fun while it lasted!
Day starts off nice and early. However, I am not nice when it’s early wtf.
Makeup artists my loves! That’s Janice trying to improve my face wtf.
And that’s also a pink heart to cover my modesty.
Tim gets his face put on too.
The crew sets up the lighting and stuff diligently.
Rambo takes a nap (and by the looks of it, has a nightmare)
A light gets set up outside Ooib’s room. Yes everyone! This is Ooib’s door. He has a picture of Roy Keane, an MU plaque, and his name spelled out in bright wooden letters wtf.
Another view of Ooib’s door and the light.
Me and Tim with our faces put on properly, with Jojo and Janice and Ling the makeup gods.
Jojo touches me inappropriately WTF hahahaah no la she’s helping me to put on my mic.
I water some plants !!!!!!
Seriously. I have never watered any plants in my entire life and Jojo asks me to stand outside and water plants until they drive up to my house. My mother won’t be able to believe her eyes wtf.
So I totter around with the watering can a bit. I’m surprised that so much water pours out of it and even more surprised when the water runs out.
I can’t figure out how to turn on the garden tap and hastily asks one of the crew to help me fill up the can in the kitchen.
Then when he darts out with a filled can, the van drives up and he ruins the scene.
And we have to do it all over again wtf. And that’s what filming is like!
Then we head off to Pyramid to er meet Jam and Latat and have lunch with them. Jammie gets her makeup done!
I bump into a friend I haven’t seen since high school and feel very awkward when he asks why I’m standing next to a big film light *sheepish
Jojo gets hers touched up too.
I have diarrhea throughout the day and have to keep running off to the bathroom. But I manage to take pictures of myself too wtf.
We get briefed by Micheal to walk down Asian Avenue. Everyone stares at us like we’re aliens and Tim is very fascinated by the boom (big furry mic hovering over us)
During our break, the makeup artists and I take pictures to fill time.
How they did up my eyes! My own makeup skills actually really suck because I don’t know how to do anything except basic light shadow, eyeliner and mascara *sad
They keep touching up my hair and makeup so I always look fresh! Actually at this point I am ready to drop off to sleep at any second because I’ve been up since 6 and have been running all over.
The worst part of my day (and life) occurs. Jojo drags me to the Hitz FM studio to do an interview with Adam C and also to *deep shaking breath* take over his role and pretend to be a radio DJ.
The whole time my face stays like this. Eyes and mouth wide open wtf. When Adam or Jojo speak, I stare at them in awe and admiration. When they ask me something, I stare at them in fear and blankness T_______T
We are on air !!!! I go crazy with fear.
I wasn’t so bad on camera. But there’s something about the big microphone pushed towards me on radio that pushes me over the edge wtf.
I think I can even do public speaking better than bloody radio! Especally since I thought we were recording this for future use or something and I don’t realize we’re live until halfway through T______T
Jojo & Adam C are of course fantastic at it wtf. Tim is too because he’s eloquent like that even though he hates the sound of his voice *nods
Thankfully the interview is pretty short — but not short enough wtf. Adam C shows me and Tim how they edit conversations so there’s no awkward pauses or stuttering or anything remotely ordinary like that.
Then it’s over! I thank Adam C, thank Jojo and Michael and the crew, thank my baby, and thank god wtf.
