Gorgeous living

January 13, 2008 · 33 Comments

I like interior design. Not so much doing it, because I don’t have talent in this aspect, but rather the fascination with how raw materials, furniture and lights, can give so much life to a home, reflecting the personality of the owner. Whenever I flip through related magazines like Vogue Living, Style Home, Home & Decor, even Ikea catalogue, I get lost. There are just too many styles one can create for their living space. Every show room looks beautiful, although only a few really call out to me and make me wish I had a home like that. So far, loft apartments really interest and intrigue me. I guess I like the idea of having a high ceiling, floor-to-ceiling windows, and a second storey within the same apartment, like this:

or this:

Gorgeous living?

And I would really like to have:

A bookshelf like that, where I can have all my books neatly displayed, away from the dust, but yet so accessible.

And a pretty little table…

What do you want to have at home or in your room?

郑斌辉 vs 吴彦祖

January 10, 2008 · 86 Comments

我在下载照片时,有个惊人的发现!
总觉得斌辉让我想起吴彦祖。我也说不上那里象,不完全是外貌吧,可能是他们的神情和银幕上的魅力。
你们觉得呢?

The Truth 《谜图》第二篇

January 9, 2008 · 41 Comments

今天是《谜图》拍摄的最后一天, 嘿嘿!我们在两个月内完成拍摄,可以算是很有效率哦!每天都马不停蹄,还是让大家看看工作时候的照片,就能了解一部电视剧的拍摄可是要靠团队的努力才能顺利完成的。

坦白说,拍这部戏感觉很温馨。可能是因为导演只有两个(其他剧通常有三个),摄影组也有固定的两队,而且队员几乎很少更动吧!天天面对的人都一样,也就 “日久深情”。哈哈!我还蛮舍不得大家的。。。

这个导演很神秘吧?猜到他是谁吗?下次再揭晓答案!

mitu3.jpg

忙忙碌碌。。。

我们有两个摄影师。这是Andy。。。

mitu6.jpg

这是另外一个摄影师Uncle Lau的机器。

mitu9.jpg

这是厂景的道具师父。其实他什么都做,所以他的外号是“Mario” (male version of “Maria”)。

mitu8.jpg

这是我们英俊的助导明瀚。他很正经,但是也蛮爱玩,所以很有魅力!

mitu7.jpg

这就是另一个摄影师Uncle Lau 的队伍。

好认真吧?

不过大家在彩排的时候,还是有轻松的一面。

下一篇,我会跟大家分享等待的乐趣!

Can’t bear

January 8, 2008 · 19 Comments

Frankly, I can’t bear to read news or see pictures of Jimmy, because they are a stark reminder of what is no longer there.

His life. One that touched many people.

MC King

January 4, 2008 · 57 Comments

I worked with the man twice, during <凡间新鲜人> and <宝贝父女兵>. I remember him as a generous man, full of laughter and wit. Once when we were filming in studio, he made a huge pot of Taiwanese-style mee sua for everyone because it was a Sunday and most stalls in the canteen were closed.

By now, most of you would have heard about MC King’s death. I was gripped with disbelief and shock when I first learnt about it in the midst filming today. My heart is heavy with tears and all I can do is hope that he is at a better place right now.

May peace and freedom be with him.

It’s 2008!

January 1, 2008 · 36 Comments

HAPPY NEW YEAR! And I’d like to share this video with all of you to start the new year on a positive note.

It was awfully quiet as I made my way home last night, after a sumptuous dinner of Mexican food. At the Hong Kong Cafe where I sat with my friend till the clock struck twelve, no one around us jumped up with joy, or toasted or cheered to the arrival of a brand new year.

It’s like any other day.

It is just another day, just as what a good friend of mine would say. He feels that New Year celebrations reek of commercialism, that is why he never makes a deal out of it. To him, it’s merely a skip of the digits, just like the numbers on the clock, the numbers from lottery, the numbers on the stock index. Life goes on.

True, but still I’m all excited about the new year. Perhaps it’s an excuse to start anew, and to focus on what lies ahead. That’s why I’ve set myself a new year resolution to de-clutter my life. I have the urge to trash, organise and clear some space at home, because I think the environment that we live in will affect the sort of aura that surrounds us too. It’s not superstition, it’s more like a psychological encouragement that if I can be free from all these material possessions, I can be free in spirit. There is too much negative energy in the world. Everyday in the news, there are bound to be (at some point) disasters, accidents, political turmoil, murders, suicides, family disputes, legal tussles and so on.

I’m really looking forward to 2008, where I can lead a life that is undisturbed and at peace. :)

What are your new year resolutions?
