My AP is so lousy. she's like, 50 times worse than Shu Yi. not used to her style at all. it's quite humiliating sometimes, the artistes ask me questions, and i don't know how to answer. because my AP didn't tell me ANYTHING. she think she's so great in controlling everything. but the fact is that, she sucks. maybe she was not aware that i did a lot more stuff when i was with Shu Yi. i'm sure i can do a better job if i was in her position. wonder how she became an AP in the first place. but never mind. at least now i can relax a bit. not so stressful like the other time. :)
we had Alan Tern, Ng Hui, Pierre Png, and Andrea De Cruz for the past week. Alan is so shuai, he looks sexy with his mustache! and he was the first to ask me for my name. :) but sadly, he smokes lah, a bit disappointed....Ng Hui, nothing much to say, coz up 'till now she only had one scene with us. i like Pierre and Andrea the most. they are really nice people. ok lah, partly coz they speak english. the only time that they speak in mandarin is when they are acting. once the director says Cut, they are back to english. which i find really amusing! :P they are a loving couple too, sometimes Andrea will visit Pierre on the set, and vice versa. and we always see Pierre smsing on his HP, obviously to his wife lah. ;) the funnist part is when Pierre imitates his Dayang character. he ALWAYS does that. not in this drama lah, i mean like in between shots and stuff, to entertain us. very cute! even director calls him Dayang. :)
saw Angus and Baoyuan the other day at Make-up. they were back for the promos. when they saw me, they went "hey Wanyu! Hao Jiu Bu Jian!!" :) had a nice long chat with them. so happy to see them again! 1 more week to Wu Chu Cai Hong! can't wait! did anyone see Zao An Ni Hao on Wednesday? Angus, Baoyuan, Rosanne and Julian made a guest appearance. they were playing snippets of the show. seeing the scenes that we filmed being shown TV, the feeling is undescrible. i think i'm gonna cry seeing the drama when starts airing. :P

new show. BORING.
firstly, my AP is so different from Shuyi. she's not as strict lah, that's a good thing. and i'm not doing some of the tasks that i did in my previous project, which is great, coz my workload is lessen.
but despite all these, i still do not like her. coz she looks like she doesn't respect me as her PA. when she introduce me to others, she went, "This is my PA". rude isn't it?, why cannot say my name? and when the artistes gave her stuff, she'll pass it to me, telling them, "She's my PA, so next time can just give her." like, please, eventhough it's my job, no need to make me sound like i'm a slave right? argh. and she doesn't tell me ANYTHING. last time Shuyi always tell me the bus number, the locations, and all the other extra stuff that i need to take beforehand. but now my AP tell me all these things last min. which is fustrating lah. luckily i'm smart enough to READ the script thoroughly the night before, in case i forget something. and luckily i'm smart enough to also ask her all my questions, so that i won't get scolded in case i do something wrong.
also, my present director is so, quiet! compared to Guang Rong, omg. so big difference. no jokes, no chat, no nothing. he's so serious! quite sian leh.
and i have an extremely embarassing thing to say. the first day right, we were gathering everybody up the bus. and my AP said "tell Ah Fu that the bus number is 2841". obviously i didn't know who is Ah Fu, i thought he was an extra or a partimer. but i went to find him anyway. and i saw this guy at makeup, and i asked him, "Are you with Yan Ping?(my AP)". and he said yes. and i asked again, "what are you acting as?". at that point, he looked at me, like i offended him. after a few seconds, he said "i'm not here for acting, i'm here to film the show". it took me a while to processed what his words. and i was so embarassed when i finally understood. Ah Fu IS THE DIRECTOR!!! omg. omg. i actually mistaken him as an actor! die liao. i think up 'till now he still has a bad impression on me. but the fact is that, he doesn't look like a director AT ALL! he looks more like a technician at an electronic company! really.
the story of Xing Shan Shan, is also extremely different from Wu Chu Cai Hong. it's more of a family kind of show, unlike Wu Chu Cai Hong, which is interesting and fun. so natually, it's a lot more boring during filming. last time i could still see the actors dance, but now, it's the usual home-shopping mall-clinic-relative's house-coffee shop kinda pattern. i seriously had the urge to yawn.
the first 2 days of filming, got the chance to work with May Phua, Hong Hui Fang, and Zheng Ge Ping. all of them are very friendly. no airs at all. The Zheng couple are quite funny lah, coz they always talk to each other in Hokkien. :P May is actually quite pretty in person. and she's so polite! i'm starting to like her a lot. :)
weird. but i suddenly miss doing Wu Chu Cai Hong.
haiz. hope i can survive the next 2 months.

my new drama will be.
glad that i didn't get the Mata one. coz i think it'll be a bit more ma fan.
Still dunno who's my AP. Pray that she'll not be so fierce like my previous one.
i heard that the script for is really good, coz it was written by Hong Rong Di. but i've yet to read it.
Coz i'm still reading Lian Lian Hong Chen.
Which makes me really upset again.
:(
