back in biz

ah yes, i'm back at my blog, looking at it and it does look sad with so little entries..

anyways.. work has taken me to beijing in march & mumbai in april. ideally i should be planted here back in SG for next two months trying to do SG shoots. not sure what's exactly going to happen from mid-year on, but i guess we'll go with the flow and see how things work out.

it's been really busy and having no time for anyone, apart from the CNY break i don't think i actually rested much in btwn. beijing was hell of a time and don't get me started on how the production works there. and mumbai? don't even go there! all i know it's over, lessons learnt and perhaps gained some understanding how much sometimes you appreciate the production industry here. well okay maybe even it's just for this fleeting moment. i really still wish to live somewhere else. yea, like really get out of here and stay on a farm or something.

ok maybe not a farm.







that's me on the great wall of china, which is probably the only highlight of my trip? yeah man i fucking climbed up the great wall of china, words cannot express how i felt when i reached the top. coz i was breathless by then. but the view was amazing. so fucking awesome. yes the sheeps/rams are for real, saw them up there. had to take the pix, being born in year of the goat/sheep/ram and being a gemini. too much of a coincidence to ignore.

and yes that was the only interesting thing. apart from the nice cold weather which gave me cold rash (which is blessing in disguise as new skin cells regenerated) or the oil-laden food that made me put on weight (not so blessing here as i find it harder to lose weight now).

some interesting pix to share:



statues in an art district



in the same art district gallery which we shot in (previously were actual factories)



oh man china posion, i had like 10 shots of this vile drink with the locals and yes the very 'sharon' in me has brought back the bottle for memory's sake


and then, india was hot hot hot.



traffic, humans, cars, noise everything all at once. :p din take much photos in mumbai, as we stayed in most of the time, was staying in bandra and it was interesting to be near two big male bollywood stars for two weeks of my stay there. you can literally see the fans standing by the roadside waiting to see them, i can imagine a wave or a smile would melt losta waiting hearts. and then there was the interesting bit of finding hair in my food, i seriously believed that it must be just me, either i'm looking too carefully into my food or others just eat without looking. i have no wish to contest that.

cometo think of it, i have some days off, but i'm thinking where to schedule them in. i'm looking at at least 3 shoots for month of may. so maybe i'll keep them for june. and yes another year to add to my age in june. i actually look forward to celebrating my birthday.

really.
