Thinking....

Walking down the flee market street at the Curve, you will be bombarded by all the different kind of advertisement, from the shop owners saying “moi, mari tengok la…” to the restaurant’s sign boards that make you have that sudden crave for a particular kind of food, to all the bank promoters coming to you asking you to apply for their bank card and the pretty promoters telling you about the new product in the market.

What is it that attracts your attention?
Is it the pretty promoters in short skirt?
Or the cheap price the stall owner gave?
Or is it just purely your desire to purchase that little something to reward yourself?

I was working at the Curve Courtyard the past weekend, and the job was, interesting in a way that it made me start thinking again.

People buy because they need it?
Or is it the convincing sales person?
Is it just the pure lust of purchasing?

I was working for a product called Evian Facial Spray, a facial spray which contains only pure natural spring water.
Well, the response wasn’t that good, which was sadly, in my expectation. It is not that the product is not good, but from a consumer point of view, who would spend such big amount of money getting a bottle of mineral water?
To be frank, I won’t unless I have a lot of money on that particular day, or I’m in an extremely great mood. Well, this is from my point of view as a consumer, so I’m not sure about the rest.

So, what is it that truly drives people to buy that particular item or subscribe to that bank card or eat that expensive-yet-not-filling food?
Do we need them? Or its just purely desire?
If its desire, then why are we still doing it?

Hmmmm
*think think*

2nd post in Genting

This is the continuity of the previous post.
Its 7.52 am in the morning, and we just finished a little part of our shooting. My fingers are turning purple thanks to the extremely cold weather here in Genting Highlands. My poor fingers are almost frozen that I can hardly type this post. I think my brain is frozen too because I did not sleep for 24 hours already, and now I still need to think of a new storyline to fit our timeline since we are so lack of time. All of us want to leave as we are all exhausted and hungry. We had only Maggi since last night and barely have any rest since then.

My brain is stuck but I still need to figure out a way to link our entire story together. Everyone else is catching up with their sleep, while dear Eva and I here squeezing our brain juice trying to think of something. Not only we are lack of time, we are also a member short. One of the members decided to back out last minute and now she got us into this big shit indirectly. I can feel my eye lids getting heavier, but I need to stay awake to keep the group going.

Eva too couldn’t stand the tiredness and finally fell asleep. I am again the only one awake. Let them sleep, poor crew are dead tired. I think if we don’t have shooting, we can all sleep till tomorrow evening. Everyone in the crew deserved a good night sleep, as we have done a lot for this assignment.

Alex is working and she went for prayers yesterday morning, although she got a short nap last night but obviously it wasn’t sufficient even for anyone here. Hunter slept only half and hour on Saturday night and need to drive all the way up to Genting, he even skipped class to help us out, thanks a lot Hunter. Dylla also had a long day and she wasn’t feeling well since yesterday, might be the week of the month coming to pay her a visit, but she hold on and helped us out, poor Dylla. Lastly is the bubbly Eva, she was trying her best to stay up the whole night. She only got 2 hours sleep since last night. It’s great to have such great members in the team to work with.

I know I’m not suppose to blog this time, but I need to do something to clear my mind, and the instant soup isn’t helping much. Think Shing think!!! What else can we have?

(well, in the end I fell asleep also… haha)

7th of April 2008

This blog was written on the 7th of April, 2.18 a.m. at Genting Highlands. Too bad I can’t post this up straight cause here got no internet access, sad. T___T

Wondering why am I still up at this hour of time, at Genting some more? I am doing my shooting with my team members for field production techniques assignments, which is to shoot a horror movie. Creepy right? We came all the way here to shoot this kind of movie. But nothing we can do la, we want the best for our video, so we choose the best place we can think of.

The reason I’m still up is because I am waiting for our shooting which is around 4 am in the morning, which means I have 2 more hours to go. Oh God, the tiredness. I can feel all the “sel-sel” in my eyes complaining saying that I’m such a lousy owner. Haha. I can imagine my eyes swollen when I get back home and go back to college. Well, at least now the people in college can see a panda. =)

I want to sleep, but one thing about me, is that if I go to sleep but not getting enough sleep, I will become very grumpy and blur. So to avoid all those things from happening, must well I just don’t sleep only la. Hope the shooting can end early and we can go home early too. I’m feeling really tired and I WANTO SLEEP!!! Yawn…

I still got 1.30 hours to go, so I will continue writing till I feel asleep on my baby laptop, or till they all wake up. =) this is going to be an extremely long post. Haha, alright la, I won’t write too long la, later cannot post then how? Haha…

A lot of people telling me that Genting not cold ad, well, wait till they come here to Amber Court. I’m freezing here, and I sleep with shorts and singlet at home with air-condition at 23 degree (my room is very small). So you can imagine, a girl which is used to all this is now wearing 2 sweaters, and jeans, and still shivering. FREEZING!!! Can anyone turn down the air-cond please? *shivers*

Oh yea, I was telling Dylla they all, to go PD after our exam on May, to relax and unwind. So tired ad after such long semester, I think I can go crazy if this continues to go on. Anyone wants to join us on our vacation? The more the merrier, and cheaper also, so come come, join us!!! Haha.

*yawn*

I’m sleepy. I think I want to stop crapping d, because I want to save my energy for the shooting. And now is 2.45 am. *yawn*

The- post- without- a- name- cuz- shing- is- too -sleepy- to- think- of- any. =D

It’s been a tough week for all of us; I believe everyone can see that from the extremely huge eye bags and dark circle beneath each other’s eyes. T_______T
I think we can create an IACT Panda Club already, membership open to all that looks like panda with the huge eye bags, which I believe will include the whole college, the students and the staffs. =)

I’m so tired. Everyone is. The workload here is already crazy enough, I can’t imagine if I went to The ONE academy, what will happen to me. Sher Ree a.k.a my best friend is currently a student there taking advertising and art, or something like that, and she sleeps at around 3 – 4 am EVERYDAY!!! Can’t imagine what will happen if I am there, people as lazy as me, plus the less intelligent I am compared to her *okay i admit...*, I don’t think I can even sleep at all!!! T______T

Thank God I’m at IACT, oh IACT, aku cinta pada mu. Muahahaha. At least I don’t need to sleep at 4 am everyday, good enough. =)

Well, 1st of all, I must mintak maaf la, kat all the people that actually reads my blog, because the last few previous post was a little bit too emo, and I AM NOT an emo person ok? I just… well… it’s been a tough week ma, what you expect right? =p

Secondly, gua mau say thank you to you all people that took the time to ask how I felt, it really helps a lot, well, although I won’t really end up hanging myself, but, I really felt stress la then… No worries, now I okay ad. =) See my happy face? *grin* =D

Hey have anyone watched “Ah Long PTE LTD” yet? My cousin says it’s really funny, Eva and Alexandra said so too… but I haven’t watched it yet… T___________T Can someone tell me if it’s nice so I don’t need to waste my money so watch some not good movie? =)

Damn lazy want to go home la, nothing to do there also, T____T Then have to take bus home alone, I DON’T LIKE!!! T_____T
Sleepy la, anyone wants to be my pillow? *yawn*
