开心就好

现在不是没得去的问题。

我不介意时间配合不了

我介意你们自己悄悄讨论作了决定然后在我毫不知情你们在讨论的情况下发联合声明通知我。

再用安慰语气的空头支票 “we'll find another chance k”来安抚我

感觉上我好像一个问题,有人需要来处理我

随便你们啦。

反正你们没有差

你们开心就好!

Jump down the stairs and Walk up the walls

So much for having respect for the rehearsal space and protecting the production's privacy and having sensitivity for the cast and director and production team......

Why when I did nothing wrong but still get dragged into something.....?

I have become very careful with what I say..... And even more so for this production because the situation is so sensitive.... In fact, sometimes people think I am too anal about the details and small matters.....

Then why like that still can get involved? I don't know. I felt angry, I felt pressured but I can understand..... Sometimes its better to be reminded before something happens.... Sometimes people assume things then they just wrongly blame people or talk about people when people didnt do anything at all.....

I don't mind, cause this is so for lesser mortals.....

But the thing happening, was the maximum limit....... MAXIMUM!!!!

Whatever belief I had for upholding respect for the rehearsal space and sensitivity for the cast and director and whatever privacy people need crumbled to pieces..... It just went off to sleep and fly kite....

Why like that cannot but like this can?? WHY??!!!

Why big shot means let it go? Big shot no need to ask first before doing anything meh?

Why big shot then cannot reject directly? Where got like that one? Wrong means wrong already what..... Just explain why wrong and politely reject can already what... After all, we didnt start anything. We didnt do anything.... Then why cannot?

Why can say 'okay lah, never mind lah but next time don't okay?' Then I also like that can or not? Can I also say 'okay lah, never mind, but next time i don't already can?'

Why they can assume this and assume that but nobody shout or yell at them but when I assume things then I can get all the sharp words and cold stares and the crap......

So what if people got talent? People no talent can treat like shit meh? Those who treat others like shit better be careful.... Sometimes it is not because people have no talent... Its just that people chose to hide it and to grow it slowly.... Its just that sometimes they don't have the right chance and time yet.... You better be very very careful..... You have been warned......

Why I need to have common sense but big shot no need? Big shot no need to have common sense one meh?

Common sense..... Simple Common sense...... The lack of it just makes me want to jump down the stairs

Please don't ever tell me its small thing okay???? Its not a small thing AT ALL okay. Do wrong still never mind, then waste everyone's time...... It is super serious can?!!

Why do I spend so much effort together with the rest to create a safe place for rehearsal only for some people with no simple common sense to destroy it by walking in.... walking in LATE!!!!

So super bad example..... It totally unravels my beliefs in certain values that I felt pride in upholding....... Other things I might be terrible at.... But at least I have a bottom line..... Now bottom line no more....

Actually I was stunned by myself.... While discussing the issue at hand, suddenly I felt a surge of emotions so strong that I almost wanted to cry.... But I kept my voice very very calm and I suppressed my tears.....

Throughout the whole night thereafter I kept reminding myself that this is not about me, the world doesnt revolve around me and so on.... I kept rationalising the whole episode to moderate whatever I was feeling....

I know as one of the stakeholders of the show, I have the right to be angry but not too angry. I kept telling myself I was too subjective......

But sometimes, emotions are hard to explain and even harder to control.....

Stakeholders...... Backstage people considered stakeholder or not?? If so, why does it not feel like backstage people are stakeholders? Or do backstage people treat themselves as stakeholders?
Why do backstage people need to be stakeholders? Do the job and fuck off can or not?

At that moment, I really really felt like not doing all these anymore.... I really really really felt not crewing anymore..... Anyway I cant do backstage work well.... Screw this up screw that up piss this person off piss that person off........

Whatever it is.... this was a wonderful lesson, a lesson to show that life isnt always fair, a lesson to show injustice is like biscuits at NTUC, cheap and available, a lesson to tell me why I shouldnt be crewing forever..... A lesson to show how disgusting and nonsensical people will be and a lesson to show why following rules and upholding boundaries are useless.....

Thank you people. Why don't you all just walk up the walls and stay there, or better....Out of my sight......

Phone Ops Ask The Darnest Questions

Yesterday was late for lab. So I ordered a taxi.

Ordered. Haha.

But anyway wait here wait there wait until dulan then the taxi havent come.

So I called the Comfort (not at all comforting I must say) call station.

And the following conversation ensued.

Phone Op: Sir, you need a taxi now?

K.T. : No, I booked one just now. It is still not here yet. Can you kindly help me check?

Phone Op: Are you the passenger?

Wah Piang. Why else did she think I would bother to call if I am not the passenger? For the rest of the conversation I kept my voice steady and kept forcing all the bad words back down my throat.

In the end, it turned out that the taxi driver arrived at another road and another passenger insisted he was the one that called the cab. The taxi driver just picked up the stupid guy without bothering to check.

What the hell?!!!!! Why don't the stupid passenger go to hell for taking others' cab when obviously he was not the one who booked it!

And to hell with the phone op who processed my booking. I ALREADY SAID I am waiting along Yishun Ave 2 but she just had to enter 'main road'. Who the hell would know where is 'main road'? Too lazy or what?

And the phone op who picked up the phone when I called back was just simply CLASSIC.

Better still, 15 minutes after the entire episode, the taxi driver who picked up wrong passenger sms-ed me 'Taxi arrive. Thank you'

SO WHAT IF YOUR FUCKING TAXI ARRIVED!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT DIDN"T PICK ME UP!!!!!!

Actually I already calmed down and not feel so pissed because I managed to get a cab without booking. But the taxi driver just had to send such a message. Made my fire even bigger.

Waste my phone bill waste my time and waste my energy.

Damn damn damn

Hospital

'最困难的事就是人的事了' ~郑尚宫, 大长今

My mother was admitted into hospital yesterday. Doctor said she has pneumonia....

At first my mother only had gastric infection or something like that.... Then yesterday she complained of chest pain and muscle pain.....

My sister has funny thinking.... She said she didnt think it was necessary to go to the hospital.... Lucky my aunt insisted that my sister brought my mother to the hospital....

Don't know how many people died because they complained of chest pain and muscle pain and people thought it was not so serious at first.....

Too bad I was not at home... If not I confirm send my mother immediately to the A & E. This kind of thing don't play.... Nothing is too trivial when it comes to pain in the body.....

When visiting my mother in the hospital today, I realise it is very strange.... Only when she is staying in the hospital then I have the chance to sit down and talk to her properly.... Kind of weird that my sister and I exchanged more phone calls in the past two days when my mother is in hospital than the last 3 years combined.

Please don't start saying that I should spend more time with my mother lah, I should show her more concern lah blah blah blah.

Both of us are very busy. She holds two jobs. I work in the lab, in tuition and in school....

And I think there is enough concern to go around....

Then mother start complaining during the visit that my father don't want to come back to Singapore.... That she is very tired about rushing in and out of the house to work.... that she has to worry about a lot of things, that my father should come back to help out cause he cannot find any work, that my aunt lent us alot of money for us to get by..... and so on and so forth.....

Sick people like to say sad things.... My mother say she think Father only want to come back when she is dead to see her dead body..... Aiyah say all these things for what?

My father also very funny one.... He say come back to Singapore want to smoke also difficult.... Stay in China better cause the cigarettes are cheaper can smoke more packets....

My mother don't understand.... Actually I also don't understand..... What sort of theory is that?

I know he don't want to come back because he got nobody to talk to him here... There is better, he is more suited to the culture and way of life there, and he has more relatives there also. He is more carefree....

Personally, I don't know what to say also.... Real life has no easy answers I guess....

I want to thank my aunt though... My mother only mentioned that she is living from day to day and my aunt automatically transferred money to my mother without her asking.... But she has her own expensive medical fees to pay......And she still go to the hospital to visit my mother when she herself is not well......Bless her....

When I was young I always wished that I would grow up quickly so that I can go out whenever I want and eat whatever I want and drink all the soft drinks I want and do whatever I want.....

But now grow up already, I wished I was young and carefree again.... The world of adults have way too many dark and complex problems that I don't want to get involved in...

Just now on the MRT I realise that all these problems come about because of money... All the unhappiness comes about because of the lack of money.....

If we had money Mom no need to hold two jobs.... Father can stay in China.... My mother no need to worry about my sister's education bank loan, she also no need to worry about my second sister's education fees, she also no need to always borrow money from my aunt and feel paiseh about it....

Money is very important.... It is not everything.... but still it is something important..... It is not because I love money.... But circumstances force me. Force us.

形势.... You know? Circumstances......

Government want us to get married and have children.... Have many many.......

I can tell you now.... Over my dead body!

My own self cannot take care and feed already still want to bring children into this world to eat up my finances.... Then always make them suffer for what?

A little suffering is good for the child.... Always make it difficult for them for what?? Cannot take care of kids and have them for what?

We have enough problem kids already.....

I don't want to be like my parents like that.... worry about money... quarrel directly or indirectly over money...... Old already still have to work hard to bring money so that children can eat....

Sure got people say that's because I haven't found the person I want to have children with.... Then got others will say how is it possible that there is such a person...... Say what you like, think what you want.... Lets see how much bad karma you want to accumulate.....

Call me a radical or extremist or whatever.... You are not in my shoes and I don't think you have the right to comment....

Long time ago, my mother scolded me for even thinking of going overseas because I have no money to go....

I don't think my life is hard.... But having children will make it worse..... I don't want to have children to come share my troubles

I am not sure what I am saying.... I just know that whenever I think of all this I feel very angry and fustrated....

Angry and fustrated at what I also don't know....

Maybe there are worse off people...... I saw 'Born into Brothrels' and 'Sicko' and this and that....

Lets just say I feel pissed not just for myself.... But for all these people as well....

Cannot Or Don't Want

'When I tear you apart, I am going to show what a decaying monster you really are inside.'

Is it you cannot or you don't want?

Don't lie to me. I'm already an adult. And I am a smart one. So I can see through all the excuses you have...... Be truthful, kae?

Please?

I'm an adult.....

'I am an adult, I can do anything I want.'

I always say that to kids....... But its not true, cause I cannot really do anything I want......

I cannot stop thinking too much

I cannot stop being a fool

I cannot be wiser

I cannot stop being insane

I cannot control myself sometimes

I cannot wake up to reality

I cannot let go when I need to

I cannot cry......

I cannot stop feeling insecure

I cannot stop deluding myself

I cannot keep my mouth shut

I cannot drink as much alcohol as I want because I will be a party spolier

I cannot be an ice manufacturer cause it disturbs people that ice manufacturers gives sound advice

I cannot stop attacking people

I cannot stop being critical

I cannot slow down

I cannot stop demanding

I cannot suppress my jealousy

I cannot be heartless

I cannot stop being a loser

I cannot refrain from writing useless sappy blog postings

I cannot crush the illusions

I cannot just care for myself for a moment

I cannot undo what I have done

I cannot erase the regrets that I have

I cannot have limitless power

I cannot turn around and leave even if I wanted to

I cannot say what I feel sometimes

I cannot stop lying to those whom I loved the most

I cannot stop being the loneliest person in the world

And.............

I cannot be happy

Cannot or Don't want?

Some people cannot. Some people don't want. Some people don't want but they say they cannot

Some people lie to those whom they love the most. Some people lie to those who love them the most.

I cannot.

Next summer, I am going to take the train to the land of Happiness. They said people are always happy there.... and nobody is ever lonely.

Today I got to know its name. Gehirn.

If I had one more ticket, would you come with me?

Chinese New Year

'All things that we hold onto are of ultimate impermanence. Only when we let go do we attain true eternity" -Li Mubai (crouching tiger hidden dragon)

My film professor could not understand why the big hoo-ha over this award winning film made by Ang Lee..... He didnt really think the film was that great....

To me, the film is great because of these two lines that cannot be more true......

But ultimately, it is all easier said than done......

Let go let go, where got so easy to let go.....

I felt really tired holding on to it..... but then, when I wanted to let go...... I felt scared..... I felt unwilling......

Because if I did..... what would I do without it? So I eventually still hung on....

What a useless idiot....

I guess I was really tired when the CNY arrived..... not physically.... but mentally...... Every week for seven 2-hour periods, I need to control my temper and maintain a patient, kind voice and a fake smile.....

I was tired till the point that my mood swung from point to point quite badly........ for awhile I was in a terrible mood..... and then suddenly I would be just fine.... then bad mood again the next morning.....

Told a friend that getting so busy just for a stupid CNY, I rather not have a new year...... And for awhile that idea stuck to me.......

The ang pows were meaningless to me...... the small talk with people I rarely see is meaningless.... the food is okay but eventually everyone gets tired of it......

I am really tired.......

And I suddenly remember why that July was that cold.....

I am not going to apologise again.....

I dont think I am the only one at fault...... It takes two hands to clap......

We all repeat our mistakes eventually..... And right now, I am repeating my biggest one.

新年快乐
我要快乐
