Funny Experience with Post Malaysia

Well, I'm shipping a lot of my things back hometown and... well, Post Malaysia have been pretty good till one really ... rather said... funny incident...

As we all know, each parcel Max weight is at 20kg (I just found out) and so, I had like 3 pack of parcel with 5 - 8 kg each. I thought of combining all 3 into one pack which adds up to 18 kg. I hurried over to the Post Office and was told the parcel is rejected due to its appearance (As pictured above and below) Well, technically, its one piece but they refuse to see it as 1. Talk bout creativity and logic thinking... anyways.. I had to go home, pull one piece of wrapping paper over it and only then I managed to ship it....

Anyone of you decides to mail a parcel... make sure it looks one piece... feeling one piece don't count....

sybil kathigasu @ Redcom

From Left [bong (Me), Bob, Gerald]

Sybil is a war hero (nurse) during the Japanese occupation in Malaya. She is mostly known in Ipoh for her saint works where she was nursing the wounded and helping the resistance to fight off the Japanese.

RedCom is now shooting the drama in Perak, mostly in Papan, Ipoh and some of the nearby forest and jungle. The Drama will be aired on Astro Citra in March 2010 which is a subscribe channel.

I am given the opportunity to play one of the important role in this drama as one of the Resistance, Pasukan Tiga Bintang (The 3 stars) or more known as the communist who fiercely tries to fight off the Japanese.

I play Mak Lai Chai, a notorious, uneducated, brute and unreasonable officer who distrust anyone who have ever come in contact with the Japanese and only resolve to one solution to the matter, "DEATH" It's fun to play character like such cause i get to release all the anger inside... muahahaha.....

for more info, just subscribe to the channel in March 2010 :)

Scars

It's been a while since I last blogged. I've been busy, been around, been emo-ing, been thinking, planning......... lots of things have been in my mind for the past couple of months. things which i need to change right after CNY. something which I hate to do, is to choose between family and career. I love my family and career is my life. but sad to say, family and career can't be in the same town... but who says anything is fair.. lol. i just wish i can be home with my family and hug them every morning i see them at the breakfast table. I miss home so so much. I would give up my life just to be with them.

By creating "Chaotic Baboons Films" I will be bringing my career where very I go. which is right now, still in a bit of the shadows where all the creature of the abyss is dwelling... lol.... but anyhow, CBF shot her 1st short film on the 26th and 27th Dec 2009... right after Christmas and just before End of the Year.... lol... "Scars" is the 1st offspring not my personal 1st project with He-man (In Search of Life). we got a lot of talented people working on this No Budget Project which I'm very grateful to.

Here I wanna thank

The Crew
Hii King Wu
Lester Raja
Rainie Lee
Cat Ching
Ping Khoo

The Cast
Jojo Lyons
Pui Fook Chien

"Scars" epd 1 has not been fully shot due to the bad weather and our hectic schedule and furthermore, one of our cast will be leaving to further his studies. So in order not to put every1's effort to waste, I'll try to make a teaser out of it... still in the planning... if all the footage is enough to make it :P (That teach me a lesson not to shoot outdoor scene at the end of the year with no budget) Hahaha....

Am Writing another project which will only take place after CNY 2010. This time, i'm keeping it a little more simple with just one static location. I've not decided where i'll have it since my future is still among the mist. but anything goes, its either Miri or Ipoh. It's going to be a sitcom... yeah, i know, i know... "Another Sitcom?" hahaha... but hey, im a producer under budget... and in order for me to score my dream, I've to think creatively and budgetly.... lol

anyways, Stay tune for "Bricks by brick"

........ Scars will not disappear, it will stay with us for the rest of our lives.... so do not be afraid of them, for it is em that craft us, our personality and our future......
