Opening night!
Waiting for the half hour call.
I think I've learnt sooo much during these many weeks.
Much learning in lighting and practical work.
I really don't know how I can convey these lessons to those in Singapore.
Huge task!
I
I can't wait for my trip to Singapore but as I expected, I Havnt been able to get myself to go my assignments or projects.., sigh.
All will be well! I will do good. Getting my footing now. I'm startin to feel comfortable with the equipment etc.
God bless!

Little bit of understanding
Ive also been thinking about what I need to do before going home, while Im home and after. As well as what to pack so that when I leave Unilodge, I can move stuff easily. All this will be a B*&^$ to settle since Im in production mode.
Thankfully today is a public holiday. :D time for me to do some stuff. And had midnight grocery shopping last night so groceries are settled. All i need to do is start cooking... for this week's lunch and dinner. RRaawwrr. Ive been very disciplined in not having instant noodles ...only the occasional lazy dinners. But even then, my maggi dinners have been with vegetables, corn and bits of stuff. not just egg and MSG.
So I've been living in a less oil style since coming here. I really hope Ive lost weight. :/
Cant wait to go back to Singapore and do stuff with people I love :)
Yet I know that it willb e a very packed 2 weeks because I have assignments to finish.
I had a revelation the last few days about some people ive been having trouble understanding. I realize that their erratic behaviour could be due their own reaction to the behaviour of others around of above them. Isnt a new discovery but it made me think things from a different point of view. Maybe I am one of those causing their response too... oh well...
Anyway im getting more excited by the day. cant wait for 2 July. :)
God Bless

Its been a long 4-5 weeks
So few thigns on my mind now...new house, Singapore holiday, ASSIGNMENTS and production. I dont know how Im gonna handle it actually but I know I will. Have to lah.
Apparently the exchange rate now is 1.45 SGD per AUSD. scary!
The past few weeks have been quite a time. Im in the new world of lighting and Im really trying my best not to be a troublesome lighting assistant.... I really am trying..I just havnt been able to do well...
I feel like a slow brained lost sheep who doesnt know what the hell Im supposed to do and I hate for people to keep giving me instructions and repeat them. Just coz I feel like I should already get the picture ont eh 1st order.
Thats mostly whats been bugging me. Also that I feel like I need to read minds to know how Im supposed to react to people's comments. Just cause I dont know what mood they are in. And that sucks the most!
I realize that that issue in itself can make me tensed and stress is what comes out of it.
Adding on to my "failed" english...and inabilitiy to understand the aussie accent well....
Makes me feel like Im a potential failure...Haiz
But Peiyan messaged me yesterday about having faith in God. About remembering that I am put in NIDA not by my own skills or smarts...but seriously purely by God's grace. And knowing Him, He doesnt put me in a place to fail. Im am here not just to learn, but also to "teach"
While I see myself as having the inability to "teach" I know I have to learn. And Im gonna keep that in mind to keep learning and keep persisting in that because while it may seem tough at times...He also doesnt put us in situations that we can't handle. Hence I know that within the 3 years, I will turn out fantastic. I choose to see it that way.
The production will persist till end of June. Wendy is popping by and Early July I'll be home. Assignments due when Im back. LOTS TO DO!
Anyway..lunch is over. Back to work...
GOD BLESS!
