I had my first shot at acting! And in the next sure-to-be-highly-rated drama series, 未来不是梦, starring RuiEn, Elvin Ng, Shaun Chen, TayPingHui, Jessica Liu etc.
But well, just as a calefare aka extra.
But it was so fun. I guess both YS and I have good camera sense--we were always looking out for the camera angles, and strategically place ourselves opposite the camera to increase chances of being captured. For all the effort put in, I'll be a little disappointed if I don't see myself onscreen.
I realise it's such a tedious process to film such a short segment. I didn't know each conversation has to be filmed separately and repeatedly at different angles, and they copy-and-edit. I had always assumed that they have more than 1 camera to shoot the single conversation from different angles. But Nope, only 1 camera, so the actors must repeat again for the camera to take from another position. (and after watching an episode of 小娘惹 after my calefare stint, I could now realise some not-so-well-edited conversation parts). It takes 2 hours to film a segment less than 5 minutes. How tough it is!
It's gonna be an Engineering-themed drama, which explains why they were at NUS Engine. And I was so glad to have asked to take a photo with the cool RuiEn. (She's veeeeery slim!!).
This was taken at the 'Career Fair' Scene.
And here's Shaun Chen in the 'Career Talk' Scene. Really admire how actors memorise pages of technical stuff and regurgitate them word-by-word, and able to start from any part of the script as and when requested by the producer.
I'll definitely remember to catch Episode 3 when it airs in the not-so-soon next year.

Location: Cake-baking at Yuyi's, Celebration at Sushi Tei
It's been a loooong plan to bake a cake. Finally it was carried out, though it went terribly wrong.
Scary smoke from the cake-baking..
Nice chocolate cake?! It's burnt cake.......
And there's banana KUEH and banana PANCAKE. (Actually same recipe but turned out different)
Underneath the chaotah top, is a layer of delicious spongy cake!
But the end product 'cake' is still a big failure.
And so some touch-ups had to be done...
21 candles on a small, thin cake pancake.

woohoo~I'm finally WINDSURFING and not merely swimming/climbing onto the board/balancing etc.the 3-day camp had done me good. Afterall, it's almost equivalent to 5 sessions worth of trainings. I could do some tacking, and now have a better control of the direction i'm going. And there was a period of time that i didn't drop into the water for so long, that I was perpetually dry!but of cos, no pain no gain.... ->> 
Right hand after 2 days of recovery.
Left hand after 2 days of recovery.
I'm starting to enjoy this sport. Probably much more than wakeboarding. Hopefully it wouldnt be long before I dare to surf further away and pray for stronger winds.
