As if posting of photos wasn’t enough, a video was made to the reminisce about the great times of poking fun at our dear friend. Thanks to the mastermind behind all these. Wahaha.
I guess Jac would be pretty traumatized by now. Poor girl. She became the sacrifice for entertainment. Wahaha. Oh I also thought stella’s impersonation of an alien was pretty good as well. Did I say impersonation? Or should it be imALIENation? Haha. By the way, yingling’s laughter was indeed hilarious! Haha.
New media contents spread like what! Wahaha. Welcome to the new age of new media.

I love the idea of acknowledgement, so I shall begin with my words of gratitude.
To Deddy and Chun Li, thank you for helping me out with the film for four consecutive days. Despite the hot and rainy weathers, my persistence to continue with the shoots never subsided. And despite my persistence, they had never once complained but followed my instructions. Without their co-operation, I wouldn’t be able to make anything out of it.
To my dear Chardy, thank you for making the arrangements for the making of the film and helping out with the logistics. I am sorry for the arguments along the way. I get pissed when things don’t work the way I want it to be. Especially towards people who matter greatly to me, I tend to place higher expectations towards them. Every frustration gives me misery, but every frustration also leaves me with some lessons. I learn and I know where I need to improve. Alright anyways, I still love you okay!
To Mai, thank you so much for the music compositions. From the day I met her to discuss the film to the day of the post-production, she has always been eager to help in any way she could. She recorded quite a handful of songs for me to choose from and improvised the music along with my requirements. I hope you have enjoyed the process of the film making. Same goes to Khoa, thank you for helping with some technical issues and I hope you have enjoyed acting as well. Haha.
To Yen Mei and Roy, I definitely couldn’t have forgotten you guys as well! Thank you so much for the narrations. Being terribly deficient in linguistics, I wouldn’t be able to craft such well written narrations. Furthermore, I wanted to make the film in mandarin as well. I am so glad that Yen Mei and Roy came to my rescue. After I reiterated the expressions and emotions that involved in a particular scene, Yen Mei formulated the lines amazingly. Although Roy was in the midst of preparing for his exams, he still came down to help out. The film wouldn’t have been complete without your mesmerizing voices. Haha.
I would like to thank Alicia for allowing me to use her room for one of the shoots. We had to shift her bed and cause her to run up and down to open the door for us. Thanks dear.
Oh yes, I would like to thank Benson as well. Haha. As I was unable find a word that I couldn’t translate, he responded to my MSN pleas. Thank you for your timely input. I wonder if he will see this. Haha.
This is a short film about loneliness, solitariness and emptiness. It also revolves around repetition and waiting. Do you realise that there are people who stay in the vicinity, yet there isn’t any chances of interaction? There is no social interaction despite the close proximity.
This was a school assignment that was due a few days ago. This version here went through further editing after I submitted a copy to my tutor as I noticed some parts that require refining. Haha. Although it’s too late to submit this version, I am still glad to share this on my vlog. Do leave your comments. Thanks.
