Is it considered cognitive dissonance if, for example, I don’t like this person because he’s very irritating and I’m always thinking unkind thoughts about him although I don’t show it outwardly and just try to avoid him, but then he goes and does a nice thing like send me flowers when I’m sick, causing me to feel majorly guilty and wondering if I should try to stop disliking him?
I love this song.
Her Name is Alice (soundtrack from Alice in Wonderland)
(Click for YouTube video.)
I told my singing teacher I seldom listen to music because the songs I like (usually melancholic melodies) depress me. Yet, I can’t stop playing this track over and over.
I had a conversation with myself this morning when the alarm woke me up at 10 am. (Another vain attempt to normalise my bio clock.)
“Sleepy. Wanna sleep somemore. Zzz.”
“Ooh but 10am. Can order Macs breakfast!”
“Do I feel like eating Macs breakfast today?”
“Hotcakes and sausages!”
“I think I feel more like a Big Mac and fries.”
“Ok fine go back to sleep.”
Yay! Just found Jolly Shandy Lychee (which is rarer than Peach) at Cold Storage. Love! Jolly Shandy makes me jolly! =)

You know that could be an interesting side-job. :)
The article is here.
Bravo!!!! Girl,
that is definitely an article worth writing….but i can’t personally relate to it cos…ain’t nobody’s ever recognised ME on the streets LMAO….*sign*…says as much about my “career” huh?
OK…so i’ve had some “looks” thrown my way once in a while, but one never knows if it’s “recognition” or “something-directly-behind-me”…and lest i’m looking for a fight, i hardly “look” back.
Anyways, keep up the good work…ie, acting, blogging AND writing! :)
A good read if I may say so.
Thanks. I enjoyed the piece.
gratz! :D
just read the article… lol, u know what, I think I “enjoy” my sightings more than you… at least when I get recognised, pple can tell me which show they saw me lol.
On another note, when I’m recognised, I never deny it. I just make sure its really me they saw, and not someone who looks like me lol.
Mooiness: Yeah, it is. I quite enjoyed writing the article! :)
Fish: But you know what, EVERYONE in the industry knows you. :P Maybe you’re less known in the streets because you do more indies and short films which never get shown to the general public, but you’re definitely well-known in the circle. ;)
JayWalk: Thanks for reading!
Ruok: Haha… maybe people tend to remember “bad guy” faces more so they can watch out and beware? lol…
I loved your article! Illustrates the situation of all struggling actors very well, I must say.
GANBATTE NE! I believe one day you’ll land a high-profile role in a high-profile production. Perseverence is key! I’m rooting for you. :)
actually, I only get recognised for my good guy roles. Hur hur.
Shelly: Thanks, dear! :)
Ruok: Ok, fine. lol. So signed any autographs yet?
Yeah, the banks love my autograph… they keep asking for it on a regular basis …
Girl,
you are too kind…a simple paragraph from you puts HOPE back in my heart….Dang! no wonder you’re a writer! :D
Sis: awesome article, best one you wrote in years! (oops not that many years, you’re still 18!)
Ruok: ruoky, actually, I always recognise you as “the rapist”…..not that being that is a bad guy in my books!
Woohoo! Congrats on going international, gal! :P
And you just became the only Singaporean actress to appear on the big screen in the Golden Horse Awards (screening on Ch U now! :P)
But hor, I almost couldn’t recognise you (oops!) cos of your specky aunty look… Now maybe THAT is the root of the problem that led to your above article… Hehehe! :P
Edric
Ruok: Haha. I give out my autographs to cashiers the most. lol.
Fish: I wasn’t being kind, just telling the truth. ;)
Chong: Thanks, sis!
Edric: Haha, thanks. So did INS2 win any awards? Anyway, don’t think I’m the only. Didn’t Megan Zheng win an award for Homerun few years back?
bother doesn’t it guess me. I ,
@Sheylara: Hey, you gotta check out this Shery’s comment. Its like Yoda on Twin Peaks, hehe:)
Hey, right RN, you are, great observation. Haha! Yes, hmmm.
One of those spam bots. Haha. My spam filter catches thousands a day but some still get through.
@Sheylara: Spam bots, eh? Hmm, the more I learn about managing blogs, the more interesting I find it. Thanks for sharing:)
@Peaches Mode: Out loud, I laugh. Very good, your imitation is:)
Why don’t you start a blog, too? Your language is pretty good. You should enjoy writing. :P
@Sheylara: Hehe, thanks for the compliment:) To be honest, I enjoy commenting, interacting and supporting a lot more than actually coming up with things to write. And stumbling upon your friendly and pleasant blog is really great! You know the saying: “Those who can, do. Those who can’t, teach. Those who can’t do or teach, post encouraging comments…”:)
