bros united!
Sunday, December 16, 2012
i'm guttered that bros united went home in this episode of The Apartment. they were undeniably the most creative, innovative, most daring team out of all the teams! i really like the idea of this reality TV series of teams being able to design the whole house in this competition, and to actually be able to win their own house! it's amazing.. and it's such a fresh idea. it's a great way to get interior designers to get the opportunity to get the hands on experience of designing an apartment. like i said, it was really sad to see bros united be eliminated. i really liked them because their ideas for designing a room was boundless. they weren't really restricted by anything and they were able to think of really cool ideas. maybe not for some, like the first week where they were supposed to design the bedroom and they didn't have enough time to put in the mattress so it looked a bit odd. but other than that, brilliant! they NEVER held back and just really gave it their all. that's why i was devastated to see them go because personally i thought they will win this whole competition. like they blew the competition out of the water. but to be fair, the two other teams really did their best as well, Dali and Opportunists. so, it was a tough competition and of course, the two teams totally deserve to be where they are now. if you have time, do watch this reality TV series! really interesting to see the thought process of interior designers and how they actually execute their ideas. so anyway, The Apartment had a live chat with bros united on fb after the show and it was great for them to answer questions (including mine!). one interesting fact is that the two brothers, Jesper and Killian, don't live with each other. Jesper lives in HK and Killian lives in Colombia. anyway, i'm glad to know that they are still working hard on creative projects individually. hopefully they will go back interior designing together someday! apart from the tribute to bros united, time to talk about my life a bit. i went for a concert organised by Raffles Chorale, Sing On yesterday! they really did a great job in planning this whole event by themselves. i'm sure that they must have had lots of admin stuff to handle. overall, a great success! the sound was not bad, considering that their chorale is a small group. loved punch's performance the best! loved loved loved them! it was a great start in getting the christmas spirits up! met up with teresa before the concert and we went to de la creme to get some desserts and catch up on how she's doing! i really love that place hahaha, i think i'll bring all my close friends there eventually. so after the concert, met some of my juniors and they couldn't really recognise me. they even said i looked more english. hahaha! funny comment, prob cos i was wearing contacts and i apparently look more ang moh. :) i've started on my work, pretty slow pace but hey, at least i'm moving! too lazy to get my brain moving at times i have to admit, including today. :/ but when i manage to get my butt down and start work, i'm glad it's productive! the question is, how often do i get my butt down to work? haha, okay got to sort this problem out. you know, i think i will want to join a reality TV show someday to feel how it's like. sounds crazy but we'll see when the opportunity comes and when i'm older hehe. i find it to be so cool to be a role model to young kids. like a da jie where your juniors look up to you in awe. i feel like i'm having a problem of being a bit too controlling. i feel so uncomfortable when like in a group and there is no leader to make the decision. i can't help but want to intervene and like make the decision for the majority. i mean like, it really gets on my nerves when the whole thing is like dragging and no one wants to suggest anything. it's annoying! i hope i don't end up becoming like very demanding and put people off. :/ this is something that i don't ever see in myself in the past, which is interesting to see that i have that in me. something funny my dad said to me today which he told me a few years back, "why are you obsessed with fat people?" LOL, i was watching The Biggest Loser when he made that remark. i love that show! i mean of course not for the fat people. it's more of like being able to see the contestants overcoming self and their issue of weight. most of them have emotional issues about being overweight and to see them gain confidence over time and be more self-assured with their own body inspires me. at the finale where you see everybody, you see a completely different person and it's like the transformation is completed, which is amazing. i love to see the process of this transformation. i've learnt a few things from TBL too, like counting calories and the type of foods that are beneficial for you and workouts too! you should watch! esp season 7, watch out for tara, she's a HUGE inspiration to me. christmas is near, so is my performance! in exactly a week's time. i'm excited yet nervous, because we have not met up to practice our whole repertoire in like a week and we are left with one week to get everything right, which is stressful. some songs to liven up the mood for christmas! happy holidays everybody!
before i go, let me share what has been motivating me to study! well, there are many people i look up to. one thing that all of them have in common - maturity. they know what to do at the right time and they do it without any complains, because they know it's necessary. i want to learn to be like them, get things done asap and no need for parents to worry or chase. i want to prove to them that i can do it. i can be mature, i can be one less worry. wish me luck! :)
