eh, aren't you the mailman?

i was doing make up for the shooting. I looked like a freaking mosquito when in actual fact i was supposed to look futuristic. urgh. did i tell you guys i hate make up? yeah i do. i told da make up artist as what i always tell other make up artists

ja: i hate make up. urghhh
makeupartist: i hate make up too

ja scratches head. so what are you doing in this line? you just love to torture people with make up is it? lol.

ok. anyhoos, Mark Lee then sat next to me doing his face too. I turned to him and said

Ja: eh bro, dont i look like a mosquito?

ML: huh? yah yah. same like mosquito.
funny da way he said it. wanted to laugh on da spot.

ML: eh, arent you da mailman from the movie, The Maid?
Make up artist: yah yah, arent ya?

Ja: me? NOLAH. the dumb and mute mailman right? nehhhhh.

Of all characters, the mailman? haha. i was so amused because first, the guy is chinese. look at me without closing your eyes. I DONT LOOK CHINESE! well, looking from another positive point of view, next time i can try casting as a mailman for a horror movie. i think i have the potential after hearing their comments.

shooting was fun. met suhaimi and MTV VJ Belinda on set.

i was supposedly a busker in da future. the director gave me a guitar and told me to sing this line

"i'm lonely. no money. Everybody's so lonely. You're lonely, no money. Everybody's so lonely"

i went wth? i made a tune there and then with a C, G, F, G chord progression. Belinda sang da song that i made too cause she was part of da busking team. yeah Belinda, the hot MTV VJ.

then went to Singapore Sports School to do a scene on swimming, the locker room and the hamburger scene. yummy!!! get to eat free food. hungree man that time. i was damn hungry and ate almost the whole packet of dried plums that the Extras brought. i was da only Malay fella among da rest of da casts. Did my shots in a few takes before going back to Mediacorp.

Very interesting on how things revolve in Mediacorp. The politics, workload, pay etc... unless you're passionate about the arty farty stuff in Mediacorp, i'd suggest you'd try other crafts.

SO Tayereddddddd. feel like whining. when the hell am i gonna finish reading my ethics man...

p.s. fyi, i'm da future son of Sgt Dollah in Police and Thief.

ja
your mailman
