Jan 2006:
I caught Dengue Fever... Had high fever and for a first, was shivering uncontrollably in tropical Singapore...
This is very unlike me, who was wearing a cotton t-shirt with jeans in Australia just a month ago in Dec when the rest were all huddled up in their thick jackets...
Had to be hospitalised for 3 days due to dangerously low blood platelets level... Worst experience in my life... I NEVER WANNA STAY IN HOSPITALS AGAIN....
Feb 2006:
Back in business... Starting new job... Sports channel branding promos... Why don't sports presenters look sporty at all???
March 2006:
Never seen so many projects involving kids in my whole life...
April 2006:
More kids projects coming my way...
May 2006:
My uneventful, relaxing birthday....
More kids projects coming my way...
June 2006:
One nagging, never-ending project.... Yes it involves kids, animals, and the great outdoors...
July 2006:
At last, my lasik consultation... Surgery to be on 7th and 8th August... Can't wait....
Queer As Folk brightens up my life... Finished 4 seasons in 2 weeks... Hold it, make that LESS THAN 2 weeks... Gale Harold (Brian Kinney) is one serious hottie actor... Love him to death...My nagging, never-ending project is seeing some light...29th July - It's showtime!!! CABARET!!!!
Aug 2006:
Finally my wait is over...Had my lasik on 21 and 22 Aug...will soon have perfect eyesight....but had to rest & be temp blind for a week....
Sep 2006:
A month after lasik and can see very well, except eyes tend to be more dry than before lasik... Have to consistently lubricate them with eye drops...
Oct 2006:
Nothing much eventful.... except my bro's housewarming that came two months earlier than his chinese wedding ceremony... and it's also on children's day.... yes my bro is born on children's day... no joking....
Nov 2006:
Projects piling up.... busy as a bee... projected to be busy till end of year... Never seen so many drama queens and kings in my entire life... Is there something seriously wrong with the people that go overseas for further studies??? Why do they all become snobs when they come back and look down on others, even though their own glass is only half-filled??? I wonder...
Dec 2006:
My bro's long awaited wedding on 9th Dec...
Never slept so little in my entire life and yet worked so hard...
Can't believe everyone caught a nap before the dinner when I was busy slogging away at the wedding video... Even my mum took a nap before she went to the salon to do her hair... Poor 'ol me was stuck at home editing the hours of footage within 4 hours' time frame... Now I understand why professionals charge so much for express editing... cos it's ultra stressful... even more than doing professional editing work... fortunately everything went well... despite e comp hanging on me a couple of times... I survived!!! And the product went well with the crowd...
Month of X'mas alas... My fave public holiday.... but unfortunately no turkey this year cos of some unfortunate events...

哎。。。
哎。。。
真是很烦。。。
真的很衰。。。
今年真的不是我的年。。。
一点都不旺我也就算了。。。
怎么可以每次以来到节庆的时候。。
我就会很不幸地被“病魔缠身”呢?
农历新年,死伊蚊害我入院三天。。。
圣诞节,久违的鼻窦炎再度爆发。。。
现在是2006年的最后一天了。。。
我的“健康克星们”竟然约好一起出现跟我一起倒数。。。
相信多数的金牛座人士都会有这个问题。。。
我们的鼻子和喉咙是最脆弱的。。。
通常身体都蛮健康的我们,都会因为鼻子或喉咙出现了问题,便大病一场。。。
真得一点都不好玩。。。
鼻子连续猛打喷嚏,呼吸道塞得无法正常呼吸。。。
喉咙也发炎了,一吞东西就会疼痛。。。
还好没有发烧,不然就真的非常非的扫兴。。。

For all e snackers out there....
Read this on an email from my aunt...
---------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi, avoid eating these products.
************************************
PLEASE TAKE NOTE - STOP EATING THESE SNACKS ......
Pass it on !
Hong Kong has ordered stores to pull 16 popular Japanese & Chinese
snacks
off their shelves because
they contain an unapproved sweetener which some studies have linked to
cancer and other health problems.
The products are :
1. Glico chocolate pretzels,
2. Kiss mints,
3. Pringles potato crisps (mild salt flavor),
4. Kiku Prawn Crackers,
5. Kiku cuttlefish crackers,
6. Koebisen cuttlefish crackers,
7. Ika Mirin shrimp crackers,
8. Kiariri prawn-flavoured pretzels,
9. Nissin cup udon (beef, curry and tempura flavours),
10. Nissin UFO Oomori Yaki Soba Instant Noodles,
11. Nissin Tatsujin Tonkatsu Ramen Instant Noodles,
12. Natchoro sweetener
13. Qiaqia melon seeds from mainland China,
14. Popular chocolate and strawberry flavoured Glico Pocky biscuit
sticks,
15. Garlic Chip Rice Crackers,
16. Koikeya Don Tacos Spicy Beef.
They had also been removed from sale in Singapore after labs found they
contained STEVIOSIDE,
a sugar-substance not approved for consumption in HongKong or
Singapore.

私は大好きのロイ・チウ。。。
经过了好久好久,好长好长的等待。。。
终于在网上再次看到有“他”的消息了。。。
虽然天天都能看到“他” (房中的海报啦,嘻嘻)。。。
但有时望着“他”时还是会突然怀念起“他”往日的种种。。。
“他”写的歌词。。。
有“他”思想的深度,有“他”独特的哲理,有“他”心情的写照。。。
启发了我对生命的另一种领悟。。。
“他”唱的歌曲。。。
有“他”自我的演绎方式,有“他”对音乐的执著与热忱。。。
触动了我的心弦。。。
印象中的“他”。。。
性格坦率,想到什么就说什么,也不会以虚假的一面面对任何人。
惜字如金,自认好的答案得来自好的问题。
沉默寡言,无聊的问题,就没有什么好说的,不是吗?
忧郁神秘,不说话时像在沉思,或是想到什么令“他”伤心的回忆,让人觉得无法亲近。。。
调皮幽默,当慢热型的“他”“开窍”后,就像个搞笑活宝贝,让你开心到眉开眼笑。。。
双面人?双重性格?
人多多少少都是带着面具与他人交涉的,无论是好是坏。。。
多开朗乐天的人都有忧郁悲伤的时候。。。
但应为社会的关系,不能不把悲伤藏起来,戴上开心的面具面对众人。。。
我们不是每天都在这样做吗?
不喜欢的人,我们不是都暗忍着不满,而换上微笑的面具来面对他们吗?
其实能像“他”这样有多好。。。
象小孩一样无所禁忌,想说什么就说什么,想做什么就做什么,多逍遥自在。。。
----------------------------------------------------------------
Pictorial《ロイ・チウ 華流スター特選フォトファイル》

是“他”的第一本写真集!!!
有“他”第一次大胆尝试,而被粉丝争论的日本艺妓造型。
我认为没什么啦,写真集本来就应以百无禁忌、无所不能的艺术角度来欣赏,所以我可以接受“他”的这种造型。
好像还有“他”在入伍之前直到剃发时的珍贵画面。
太感人了,男儿为国而落发。。。
哦,不对,是为“他”心爱的排球。。。
DVD 《Roy Chiu ロイ・チウ》

“他”的私密“自传”,让你给深一层地认识“他”。。。
---------------------------------------------------------------
咳。。。
糟了。。。 糟了。。。
“他”才入伍一阵子就已经开始想念“他”了。。。
接下来的没有“他”在的15个月要怎么过呢??!!

Hady Mirza's "You Give Me Wings" Music Video
This is so exciting, the first high definition music video that I was involved in for filming and color-grading is finally on TV!!!
Too bad it's not shown in its original high definition quality. That would have been so much more beautiful...
Please note that we didn't do the editing of the video nor the conceptualization parts. We only shoot the video tomake sure the visuals were beautiful and filmic, and color graded the edited video to make the visuals look more stunning...
BUT the studio shots were our suggestions... The original concept did not include the mesmerizing studio shots of our Singapore Idol 2006... Don't be mistaken, I still think Jonathan should have been our Singapore Idol 2006, but I do think Hady looks close to mesmerizing to me in the studio shots...
Inspired by:
Il Divo & Toni Braxton's "The Time of Our Lives" music video for World Cup 2006.
And Patrizio Buanne's "Il Mondo" Music Video
Now that you are inspired...
Some promo and publicity tidbit videos before the actual thing...
Hady Mirza's Music Video Ad
* Note: Footage taken during the filming of the music video.
Hady Mirza's Debut Album Ad
* Note: Footage taken from his music video.
Now... The actual thing!!!
Hady Mirza's "You Give Me Wings" Music Video
So what's your verdict?
Jonathan, when is YOUR album and music video coming out???!!!
Cheerio,

Random snaps of newly acquired...
Monday, November 13, 2006
Random snaps of e new workroom...
The light in my life now...

Doesn't it make my corner nice & cosy???
Reminds me of country houses in laidback London, England...

Speaking of London...
I miss the fish & chips, wrapped in newspaper and soaked in vinegar!!!
YUM YUM!!!
And all the salespeople say "Cheerio" to you when you leave...
Such nice, warm & good customer service....
Not like somewhere...
*sign*
I am dreaming of building snowmen in snowy white winter wonderland...
Cheerio,
