Sauf La Faim, Sauf Le Monde
Friday, 10 April 2009

This has been really a long pause from the previous I had. Currently, I am busy with the project that I had. Some of you might have know what project I am in. It is a international project competing with other countries. I thought I wouldn't have come to the semi-finals. Having to say that I have never really entered such big event. My biggest competition was the Microsoft Office Specialist in 2005, and won the Specialist status for MS Office. It was quite shocking to say that my team has entered the semi-finals. Our team was the only ITE team among other 15 teams, with teams from polytechnics and universities. We have already beaten over 60 teams and came up the top 16 in Singapore. Right now I have to come out with the programming and short video.
Sorry for those whom have organised events for me during the holidays. I have had to cancel all the events for the month of April. Likewise for those who has asked me to attend the church service. Thanks for those who knew that the service was about relationships, and knew that I was always keen about it. Do let me know what did the service teach and said.
During the holidays, I had to rush from between places all the time. I have to attend the chalets for my CCA and next morning rush to school. Then comes my class chalet, and again next morning rush to school to do filming. I have to come out with a short video regarding to our project. I am unable to complete in school. I had to stay overnight at Xingming's house to complete. All the timing, proofing, sequencing, editing and cutting, effects have to done in a single day. The next morning I had to meet mentor for approval/comments on the video, before the finalised video to be sent and published. There will be a public voting to all people. Do give us your support by voting to our video. I will spread the link out for the voting once it is ready.
It has been a tough job being a interviewer/surveyor in filming. Everyone just shied out once they saw the camcorder we are holding. What's there to be shy about? You don't look nice during the day? You scared that your words will actually be caught by law, which offended Singapore? It is just hard to actually capture the real thoughts that people have towards the society and public in Singapore. Another problem faced was having delays from one of the members, she had a late interview with the partners. We had to wait for their research resources to be done before we can input all the details into the video. Well, at least it has been a learning. I had to learn Adobe Premiere Pro within two days, to produce the video. Click on the picture to view the short video we have made for our project.
It has really been hard for me these few days. I actually drunk at least half of the Jim Beam, a kind of whiskey. So did I for the Original Umeshu with shiso herb. Shiso herb is supposed to boost your body's immune system. Sad to say for those who doesn't know how to appreciate this plum liqueur. Jim Beam is 35%, Umeshu is 15% in alcohol. No wonder Kuan Hou got drunk after just a few shots of Jim Beam.
Merci tout le monde...
