I changed mah hair colour.
Again. Lol.

Okay technically it's still brown. And yes I know I went orangutan barely 2 months ago... BUT as we all know those darned hair colours never never NEVERRRR turn out like how they look on the damn box........... =.= So yeah. Pfft. Didn't exactly get the colour I wanted. So I went to the wholesalers at Sungei Wang. They recommended me this dodgy looking Japanese brand... (I've no idea what it's called the whole box is covered with Japanese writing) and said that yes it WILL turn out 90-100% like the sample....

Lo and behold it DID. XD And I'm soooooo happy!! It's now like this candy caramel-ey sorta light brown.... hehe. And my platinum bits got bleached even further they're like white now. LOL

And ooh I'm shooting tommorow. Thank god my hair's the right colour this time lol. But UGH... I'm so irritated cos my period had to come and I'm feeling so insanely bloated and ugly... Oh wells... look out for the photos when I get them! In the meantime here's a pretty backdated pic from a shoot with my dear friend + (soon to be regular) photog Rahul, with my old, darker hair. Excuse weird expression.

Wish me luck for tommorow. Hope I don't look too disgusting.

1 Kit Kat Chunky, an entire package of red bean buns, 1 Rotiboy, 1 cheese-topped sausage bun and a coupla cream crackers later... I'm feeling loads better. Carbs make the world so much prettier, don't they?

And I splurged on an RM50 hairbrush too. Oh why would I do that!? Like wtfness you can get hairbrushes from pasar malam for, what, dua ringgit!! Heh. It was 100% boar bristle. And boar bristle paddle brush at Acca Kappa would set you back RM600. PAH. Thats some overpriced pig hair, eh. But it seriously does wonders for your hair. I never understood what the hype about natural bristles was about and blah blah blah... a hairbrush is a hairbrush...... some days I don't even brush my hair....... untiil my makeup artist used one on me during the shooting of Mandi. Seriously... it feels awesome on the scalp and makes your hair feel so nice and sleek. I'm a convert now. Lol.

Oh been meaning to share this for quite some time... and since I got no photos to upload... I don't usually pay very much attention to what that's going on or playing on the sound system at the gym... but one particular song had been playing on MTV for quite awhile that caught my attention. First coupla times it was like, naaaah. But one fine day I just stopped, looked, and listened properly. Cheee, it's pretty addictive. And now it's one of my fave cardio tracks. LOL. And yea the lyrics are pretty ouch. Haha.
So without further ado, here is Silly Boy, by Eva Simons.



For some strange reason I'm not able to view or embed the official video due to some copyright restriction.... but if you do come across it, you may notice her style is very similar to that of Lady Gaga and Rihanna. I think it's a great song nevertheless! XD

Ooooh. I think I could be getting re-addicted to online shopping again. Tsk.
You have no fucking drama in your life.
So you want to screw mine to see what you missed through me. You think it's as fun or as simple as one of your tasteless Singaporean/local chinese dramas. Well it's not. Wakeup call.


Sigh...Sure could do with some donuts right now...

Long hiatus. I know.

Was down with fever, flu, cough, sore throat - the works, right after I completed the filming. So I have been incapacitated for the past week, sleeping pretty much all day and all night on antihistamines. That brings my MIA status at the gym up to 3 whopping weeks. Whoo. I've really let myself go this time.

Yesterday was my first day back in training and dieting. Friends are all commenting that I've lost my cuts. Arms were much tighter before the shooting... face looks bloated now... legs thicker... so it's back to square one again. :( First day back SUCKED donkey balls and I felt so weak with my calves cramping up doing raises. UGH. No matter.... in no time now.... will be back on track. I have to!!

I'm having bad vibes about MotoGP. Might not be doing at after all.

Been having ups and down over the past few days... currently don't really know how to feel. Guess I do have things to be thankful about. For example, I've secured my shoot for the 31st!! Met the photographer and gym manager. It's been craaaazzeee, being my first self-directed project. But it's something I've been wanting to do for a very, very, VERY long time and I'm working extra hard to ensure NO screw-ups.

OH and I've finally managed to download and finish watching Tuah Kembali, after so long! Damn I went thru so, so many sites to find it... Yea it's some local comedy-action TV movie that was released in July. I'm not a big fan of local movies to be honest... Haven't even watched any of Yasmin Ahmad's epic, epic ones (even tho I've been meaning to! Just never got around to!) either. So yea anyways... I went out of my way for this one because 1 - the trailer looked interesting and 2 - (okay this is the real reason lah lol)

This fellow was in it. Leading role too, no less.

XD I was laughing thru 1/3 of the movie not cos it was so funny... but because Wong was pulling such a serious mug that was so unlike him!!! LOL! This photo's from his website, by the way... But there's no denying he's looking real good, and will be even more so in the coming months, preparing for his competitions. Promised I'd burn him a CD cos he's got no time to watch TV...... XD And now that I know where to go to find local movie torrents, it's time to catch up on some of what I've missed!

Owkay bye-bye for now :)

Whee hoo. 10 days later and we are DONE with the filming of "Mandi"! 1 season, 26 episodes. Fuuuuuuhh!!!! Final day was the most gruelling - it was 5am when I eventually got home. Seriously dead on my feet, but it was an awesome experience and alot of fun!

Heck. How often do you get to dump asam pedas on Jaclyn Victor's head??? XD

And of course, being in good company always makes the working process alot more pleasant. Thank you to everyone on the production crew and makeup team... and Mok who has been sending me home every night. Oh and of course.... Terry, Lilian and Ibrahim (who shall be christened from this day forward as Abang Kentut. And NO I am NOT suffering from "withdrawal symptoms", thank you very much!!!). Thank you guys for making it so much fun. Especially Lilian, who has been like a big sister to me. It's really amazing how close you can feel to someone after 10 days. I hope we all shall meet again very, very soon!!

And without further ado, here are some pics from Terry's cam!


The main area of the set


Me and Lilian on the first day!


Ibrahim


More random pics of the set


Part of the set also... there's a pool right up on that stage there to push contestants in! *evil*


Me with Terry and Ibrahim


Me and Lilian again in costume!
And then they told us to cover up even more cos Astro might not approve the program =.= All that dieting gone to waste.... oh and they feed us carbs!! It's seriously so hard to stick to a good diet when you're cold and hungry all the time also... and not working out, to top it all off.


One episode featured bodybuilders as contestants!! So we had Azahar, Ismadi, Ubai and Syed Iqbal on the show. Fuuh I tell you.... that was ONE EPIC EPISODE!!! It was HILARIOUS!!!! They literally decimated the set and flooded the stage!!


And us with our very funny host, Din Beramboi as Raja Kapur!





Again.... thank you everyone for making this happen and thank you for the wonderful experience!! It's been a very, very intense and happening 10 days, and I may be very relieved to be back in the gym and being back to my old routines... but I wouldn't trade that for the world!

Time to start gearing up for the upcoming shoots. Running out of time now - body has to be at it's best a.s.a.p!!! :D

3rd day of filming...!!

And I'm already so crazily tired + sleep deprived it's amazing. I'm coming home every night at 3am+ and getting up again by 8 or 9. Yeech. And yesterday there was this humongous delay, resulting in me being dropped off at Terry's gym for a coupla hours..... no complains tho - I got to play with weights a lil bit!! XD Haha.

Well since I got a lil spare time today I thought I'd squeeze in a post. XD (Addicted blogger. Old habits die hard. Lol) It may be exhausting on the set and very strenous - long hours without food at times, feet hurting from running around in heels all the time, the very COLD studio and very thin clothes that is making me a lil feverish......... but it's alot of fun too! For one, the gameshow's HILARIOUS and it's so, so hard keeping a straight face while the camera's rolling!! Terry, Lilian and Ibrahim (some of you may recognise him as "The Screamer" from Mr. Malaysia 09) are great company too... and whenever there's Terry.... there are fart stories and ROFL moments. XD

Like so.

Gyaah. My calves and feet are killing me!! But dayum. I gotta keep myself motivated to go on cos Kimmie needs cash!! XD Ohoho... the things I want......... :P *ducks for cover before shes smacked for overspending* I want to be able to afford -

1. More sessions with Adam. (RM250/hour) All that standing probly undid everything from the last visit. Bweh. And I want to go back to squatting/lunging heavy and running long distance.

2. The upkeep of my new diet. (est. RM200+ per week)

3. A truckload o' donuts cos I love carbs and sugar. Sue me.

4. Harbinger elbow straps/support for leg raises (USD 100+). Or any other brand; I'm not picky. I'm in love with Lilian's!

5. Stuff on Bodybuilding.com cos local stores don't have bodybuilding apparel for women. Pfft.

6. My next piece of custom jewellery (RM1xx)

7. That pretty, pretty Juicy Couture fluffy black+pink handbag I saw ages ago!!!! (RMxxx) Zomg~ *craves*

Bahah. This is why I'm a workaholic. I'm an even bigger spendaholic. Lol.
DO NOT leave unattended to in Bangkok. XD

Alrights. I need to run. :) Take care y'all and pray I don't get sick!!

Oh boy. Think I went overboard for cheat day this Mid-Autumn. Ooooh. Someone's in trouble. x.x

My session with my myotherapist, Adam Martin went superbly well! He practices from a home-studio, at his house in Ukay Heights. Very friendly guy and a great sense of humour too! So yup... we sat down and chatted about my problems, and I was checked thoroughly. Adam even got me to walk about so he could observe me to assess the problem. He said I had a pretty unbalanced gait... the way I was carrying my body... aaaaand turns out my hip problem was, well, alot more problematic than I thought it would be - the problem is chronic, and it's not just the glutes anymore. The problem has spread to the groin, vastus lateralis and the tensor fasciae latae muscle. AND a hip flexor.

I also had my neck checked. Boo hoo. Let's not talk about that one for now.......

Therapy..... was a painful affair.

But damn. Terry was RIGHT. Adam's worth every single cent. Did some massages, stretches and exercises with me - the works. And believe it or not.... several hours after the session.... pain was GONE. I was like whoaaaa WTF. And I was having pain even while walking for the past few days!! No shit. Would seriously recommend him to everyone. Thank you Adam, and thank you Terry for sharing!! I will be having a follow-up next weekend.... oh and I've been banned from working out for a week. Bweh.

And I had the most enjoyable Sunday morning shooting with Rahul. :D Thank you for everything... hehe. Some minor hiccups, but we had fun nevertheless! I can't wait to see the photos (as always)! Looking forward to future assignments with you, and will always, always be striving to deliver my best. ;)

And I will be off for the next 10 days or so.
Gonna be away in KL, doing a filming for a local gameshow by Afdlin Shauki called "Mandi".
Haha. I'm really excited about this, and will also be doing it with Terry, Lilian and one more bodybuilder guy. Wong was supposed to be in this with us but had to pull out due to other commitments. :(
AAAaaaaaarrrgh I hope I'm in shape enough for this!!

To make up for my absence.... here are some photos I have received from Justin Teh, from Ted Adnan's Workshop/Outing @ Bagan Lalang, Sepang !


The "main" shoot, casual themed.
Guess I didn't fare too badly after all! :D So glad some photos turned out okay~

Then we had some bikini shots as the sun continued to sink...


Woohoo. Not a quality pose... but I love this pic cos you can see my abs coming along!!!!! :D


And there were some requests for bodybuilder poses too. Haha. Hence this picture. XD


And this. XD
Hoping to improve on my shape and definition!! Can't wait to back on track and bangin' in training!!


:)

Thats all for now.... goodnight, and till next time!

COMING SOON
