U RE THE MAN Part 1

Yup! I got into the whole thing of U RE THE MAN. Initially, I was kinda hesitant in joining the contest, but on the other hand someone told me that it should be a good experience and exposure since i am into this line. Who knows that more opportunities may come along my way, they said. Probably, they were right and i did think and pray about it, and Ok! Fine! Just do it! So, i was called in for a briefing on one of the nights @ Mediacorp.

It was a time that all contestants, producers and hosts get to meet up and get to meet with one another. The 4 hosts are Michelle Chia, Michelle Chong, Vivian Lai and Yuan Shuai. Michelle Chia does look gorgeous in person, and still remembered that she came in late after a shoot with another contestant, Kiwi, as they acted in Polo Boys together. Producer Glen was the facilitator for the night, and everyone introduced themselves to one another. The usual stuff, Name and Job etc..Hosts, of course out of courtesy and formality introduced themselves too, despite knowing who they are.

Lets see who were there...There were Brian, Benjamin, Dennis, Kerson, Kiwi, Desmond, James, Gusti, and Eric! If you were to ask me, what was my 1st impression of my fellow contestants..I don't really have much to say, because i always try not to fall into the category of being that judgmental. Came to think about it, i still remembered that Desmond looked familiar, kinda seen him somewhere before. Kiwi talked like an Ah Beng. Dennis looked old with that beard on, but was a year younger than me. Brian looked like he came from Hongkong, and indeed i found out that he did lived there for a while. James was your typical cutie boy next door. And Gusti showed his muscles with his pair of singlet on the 1st day of meeting. Sad but true, i was the eldest in there...Haha!

Whatever it was...Think i am getting to know more about myself of being a person who cant be bothered with what people said. Is it a good thing or bad thing? Well, i believe that it should be evaluated in a different context. Good for me is simply because i wont be easily affected emotionally and mentally. Furthermore, i was brought up in this way, and grew to be more nonchalant of what people may said and think about me. Bad is that we may tend to become more self-centered and disregard people feelings sometimes, and not yearning to change for the better. What you think then? Perhaps some may think the same way, but i believe everyone have their different point of view too.

Before moving on to the various challenges ahead, think i shall end here before anyone or myself fall asleep with such long entry. Well, my aim here is to keep on blogging and not stopping for that long. Cultivate a certain discipline, you know?? ;)
