Fri, Oct 16 (post audition)
While in Singapore, my sis told me that ION Orchard (that new, *complicated* mall at the corner of Orchard Road) had invited Carrie Underwood for a mini-concert to kick off the mall opening week-long celebrations. I reckon they must have paid her & her entourage a BOMB to do this. Seeing that [...]

Audition: Day 2
…woke up early again the flwg morning. Again, went out for Singapore fish ball noodle nearby and coffee. This time around I was unsure what exactly to prepare for.

September 21, 2009

A few weeks back, I’d looked at my planner and noticed that 21 Sept 2009 (from a Date Selection standpoint) was not a day to be wasted, particularly from a personal perspective. It’s a good day in general and looked like a pretty happening day for myself.

This is me…NOW

In the past few years that I’ve been on “freelance” mode, not only have some people always (secretly) raised an eyebrow  in thought about my work/lifestyle, but i’ve myself often wondered about why i do the things I do.
