Another 'random buff guy' call

Red Communications called me again. They need a 'random buff guy' for 3R. They requested for some pictures of myself so I obliged. A few hours later they smsed me asking what my schedule is this weekend. Hmm..

An article on annual leave in UK

Most workers - whether part-time or full-time - are legally entitled to 4.8 weeks' paid annual leave. Additional annual leave may be agreed as part of a worker's contract.

A week's leave should allow workers to be away from work for a week - ie it should be the same amount of time as the working week. If a worker does a five-day week, he or she is entitled to 24 days leave. If he or she does a three-day week, the entitlement is 14.4 days leave. Employers can set the times that workers take their leave, for example for a Christmas shutdown. If a worker's employment ends, he or she has a right to be paid for the leave time due and not taken.

The Government plans to increase the annual leave entitlement from 4.8 weeks to 5.6 weeks from 1 April 2009. If you work a five-day week, your holiday entitlement will increase from 24 days to 28 days (pro rata for part-time staff). If you already get 5.6 weeks' leave, your leave entitlement will not change. The Work and Families Act will not create a legal right to have a paid day off on Bank Holidays and this remains a contractual matter.

Man, we're being freaking short changed here!! *fumes*

Sweet Slumber and a Yellow Bee

Ahhhhhh.. =)

*stretches*

Finally had a good 8 hours of sleep last night. I feel refreshed!! After months and months of shitty sleep, last night is something to repeat. My damn sleeping disorder must go! I gotta stop forcing myself to keep awake and just hit the sack. Yea, let's hope for a repeat tonight!

Finally finished America's Next Top Model (ANTM) Cycle 7 (i heart CariDee) and started on Grey's Anatomy (Season 4). Good to see that things are still interesting in Seattle Grace Hospital! :) ANTM Cycle 8 here I come!

Sunday was a really hot day and was invited by Adam of Tell magazine to shoot a Volkswagen Beetle in Putrajaya. What a sweet ass car it is. Reminds me of Ian's Cooper for a day.

Something from Sigmund. Freud that is.

Five things are happening in your house at the same time.

1. The telephone is ringing!
2. The baby is crying!
3. Someone's knocking or calling you from the front door!
4. You hung the clothes out to dry and it is beginning to rain!
5. You left the tap on in the kitchen and the water is already overflowing!

In which sequence would you solve these problems?

Write the sequence and check below how your decisions were made.

BUT BE HONEST, THE FINDINGS ARE INTERESTING ......

My Answer:

2

5

4

3

1

Analysis:
Every individual point represents something in your life.
On the list you can see which meaning every point has:
1. Telephone represents Work
2. Baby represents Family
3. Door represents Friends
4. Clothes represent Money
5. Tap represents Love Life

Your chosen sequence determines the priorities in your life.

My first priority - Family.
My last Priority - Work.

Now that's a surprise. Haha.

Broken Road

Time, moves slowly while you're gone
I haven't heard your voice in quite some time
But I still see your face
I cannot erase the things you've done
And all the ways you kept me hangin' on

Now your gone
I've moved on
And I don't feel so sorry
Can't you see I'm bleeding
But I won't bleed anymore
I've held on
For so long
But I had to let you go
At the end of our broken road

I know, it hurts to hear the truth
Well maybe
I was never meant to be with you
And I cannot replace
The tears of disgrace
That run for you
Cause running from the truth is what you do

Now your gone
I've moved on
And I don't feel so sorry
Can't you see I'm bleeding
But I won't bleed anymore
I've held on
For so long
But I had to let you go
At the end of our broken road

I've held on
For so long
At the end of our broken road

Post Raya '07

Aih...
Raya holidays are over again. Today should have been a holiday but day 1 of Raya HAD to fall on a stinking Saturday. Crap @$$.

Don't feel like doing anything work related today. My horoscope for the day states: Today, do not commit yourself to doing something if you don't really want to do it. Way to go Aries! Better not tempt the Gods of horology. *snicker*

My 'team' in the office is now down to 2 individuals. How sad. Haih. Like Peyton in One Tree Hill used to say 'Everybody Leaves'. How true it is in this case. When I joined, the team used to number at 5. From seniors of 4 years experience like CS, to even newbies like Alexandra, 'Everybody Leaves'. Depressed days are here again! Whoopee!

Im bored. Can't wait for 5.30 so that I can hit the gym and go home to WWE tonight. HBK is back baby!

Another one bites the dust...ah

"I hate going to the doctors"

I've always hated going to the clinic. When I was younger, I hated it due to yucky medicines and the rareness of an injection shot in the arm or ass. As I started working, I hated it because I hated sounding cheap to the doctor by asking him/her to give me an MC.

Been coughing like nobody's business since Friday (6 days ago) and finally decided to go to the doctor's this morning after some persuasion. The doc said that I had a slight fever and some bacteria that is causing my throat to regurgitate.

"Haih" I thought.

Was waiting for the doc to give me the green light for an automatic MC but she didnt say anything.

"Bah!" I thought.

Exited the room and waited for my meds to be ready. Was called up and proceeded to the counter.

"Blablabla after meals..blablabla 2 times a day" said the nurse.

I checked one of the medicines (liquid) and it states 'May Cause Drowsiness'.

"WTF?" I thought. "What if I was driving and dozed off and crashed and died and.." I continued in my head.

"45 ringgit" the nurse interrupted.

"RM45?!?!? What the heck happened to the usual RM30?!?" I continued rambling in my head.

Paid the RM45, walked on home, took a shower, drove to work, and here I am.

"I hate going to the doctors." I state.

On Screen Bry

Two Sunday's ago, I helped Milk film a short demo trailer for his ambitious project "Post 2020" (i think) at Linus' house where he rented equipment like lights, a fan, and even a big greenscreen thingy. Haven't been on camera with Milk since the 'almost' award winning "The Defiled" at the MVAs which was like....3 years ago i think?

Filming in front of a greenscreen was fun. This must have been how Hayden Christensen felt while filming Star Wars II & III. I play a futuristic Malaysian cop who dodges bullets, walks atop a futuristic train, etc. Pretty short shoot for a trailer though. Hmm.. I wonder how it'll turn out, but knowing Milk, I'm sure the effects he puts in will kick ass.

Atop a speeding train

After making aquaintance with one of Linus' pals Sham, he asked if I could be an extra in HIS short film which was to be shot the following Saturday. I said "Sure". :)

Fast foward 1 week, I am handed the responsibility to portray a rich horny dude that tries to rape the protagonist's wife. Sweet. LOL. The camera equipment costs about RM100k. Daymn. The show is supposed to be submitted to Astro Kirana so I hope it gets green lit! :)

Mr. DOP (Director Of Photography) Linus Chung and brother Aaron

Will update with more pics from Sham's shoot later tonite or something. None of me in action though, as we needed to be quiet on set :).

The following Monday (2 days ago) someone from Red Communications (a local production house that did 'Gol & Gincu' & 'Realiti') called me whilst I was changing in the gym's locker room asking if I was free the next day between 12pm-6pm for a shoot as they needed a random buff guy for a drama (someone from Sham's shoot recommended me). I was like.."I ain't buff" =S. I couldn't make the date anyways as I have a day job. It felt good that someone from a company like that called though. *grin* I can't act for nuts but it does seem fun.

Another Burnout?

Came in to work as usual this morning and did the usual morning stuff like having brekkie with the gang, checking emails, etc. Felt like just another day when I was suddenly overcome by 'depression'. This sucks. What the hell triggered it?? Friday is supposed to be the grandest work day of the week! Could it be another burnout? I think I need a long vacation. NOW. =(
