new vision , new ventures... new life....

30th December 2008, Tuesday.

Its TODAY...

And today,

Its almost the last few hours before we'll be move out from Pagoda St!...

A feeling for hope for the better next year, and hope for the better future to come...

because 2008 has been a great year for me personally...

I have to say I've been blessed, life ain't perfect, I may have faced many challenges in this year, however, I suppose the positive side of me took over and let life lead the way.

Not too long ago, well, just a few days ago, I came to realised many things, like somewhere i read, I realise my vocation, what i'm destined to do and move forward, allow life lead my way.

I'm so sure...

To where I belong...

Another day as MAMA G

After the concert, like striking the jack pot, i was hit with the flu bug, IH says i was compressing the virus until the most important day of my year ended....

anyway.... i'm in the mist of recovery...and just like a typical day in office, some artistes had plans for a KTV session tonight lor.... then J received a call, some of the artistes' bags when missing at a stadium when they went for jogging together....

OH CRAP!

GIJ flew straight down to the police station, some idiots stole their bags and left my poor artistes cashless, bagless, and nothing but whatever they had on them.... shorts and tee and shoes...

thankfully, they remembered some numbers and managed to call their parents and of cos us... ariste managers mah...

waited with them in the station, brought them to the 'crime scene' to see if we could find any returns of priceless documents and items...after which some went home with parents and brought some for dinner and send them home....

what a night.

mama g

They were my dream

LOOK OUT PPL... LIVE LIVE WILL LIVE ON... 2009 HERE WE COME....

MAMA G

We have BIG Dreams....But...

This is for everyone to know.... I suppose in general....

I came to realise a few things...

We all have BIG DREAMS for ourselves... we have BIGGER DREAMS for the ones we love...

Do they know that?

Do we know that? and realise? and believe them? and believe that BIGGER DREAM?

I personally have BIG DREAMS... I know my parents and my love ones have BIG DREAMS for me, sometimes, its so big i never expect they see me that highly!

I as a Artiste Manager... I have alot of dreams... as a manager...but my dreams for my artistes?

THEY ARE BIG BIG BIG DREAMS...

Some may never see the same dream. Some may never believe I share a bigger dream for them. Some will achieve and hopefully I'll be standing by them when they get there...

As far as I'm concern... I want to be there when my artistes and my love ones succeed...

MAMA G

The Complexity of being Simple

I wouldn't know about how others may perceive, but I know I love my work, and what I do day to day, despite countless of frustrations I may face time to time, day to day.

It struck me recently, how complex it is to be SIMPLE.

I mean really, its really easy to complicate things and very hard to comprehend simplicity, think about it?

How many times have you and myself tried to explain something seems to simple to yourself, yet impossible to comprehend for others?

or how many times have you and myself tried to understand something, which seemed so easy and simple for others and takes forever to understand or comprehend the simple metaphor of other opinions?

At times, it get frustrating when the other party you are trying to convey the simplicity of your message, gets it wrongly.... and think otherwise....*shakes head*

I suppose, everyone complicate life...

I decided to blog this down because of some recent happenings, I wonder if people ever will comprehend what's for them... and its actually very simple...

I wonder would we ever understand how our parents really feel? Do we have to be one to understand like one?

Do we have to go through a painful lesson to comprehend certain issues?

Wouldn't it be too late for certain issues?

What if Life was involved?

Scary, but true...

Including myself, I hope and like to try make things as simple as it is... cos... LIFE IS SIMPLE...

I'm SIMPLE..., do you comprehend?

Mama G...

Dynamic Duo...Semi's here I come, but 1st... my weekend!

Ai yo....Kicked off at NYP... orion 2008, so so so so so so so HAPPY!I did the vocal workshop for the students there for merely 2 weeks, and my goodness, they took everything I say into consideration!!!!

Clothes, looks, hair, makeup( even the guys ), vocal style, stage presence!!

Though it may not have been perfect....but they were enjoying the moment... I was so happy... once... I even teared when Shairful sang his self composed song, Would you still be my friend...very touched by them....not for me, they did for themselves....Anyway... I do hope they will proceed further and happier and towards their dreams!

I wish my Live 'Live' would be just and better!

Anyway... my trip in Malaysia was work work work.... then rush back to singapore today for the dynamic duo....

good... fun... JUST WHACK!

and whacked into the semi's... hehehehe...

What made me a bit happier was, though my team had very few personal voters to come drop their votes, I still pulled thru!! which means... hehehe my judges score quite not bad....


HUMBLE!!

ANYWAY!!....I STILL NEED SUPPORT... BEEN SO SO SO LONG...

7 YEARS LE... I HAVEN'T STEP ONSTAGE... FELT LIKE AN OLD FRIEND RE UNITED.

Anyway from there... rushed down to East Coast for POP CULTURE... support PTG... whoa!!!

So fun!!!

Met many firmiliar faces.... i didn't know some of them into flea market retailing... thought I'm the only one like the whacky fun of the Pasah Malam .... OLD SCHOOL MAN!

For Fun ppl... nothing serious.... once a year try try, play play flea market retailing.... its fun!

THE PTGs got 2nd!!!! whooooooooooo!!! well done... hard work... stay humble hor!

Good things come and they go... need to treasure... need to protect what you love... and don't let them slip away from your fingers!

Saw other UAN artistes went to support... so sweet.... also good, It was a good time for them to obseve other and fellow dancers on performance techniques... hope they learn a few!

Love MAMA G

Preparation for OVERSEAS ASSIGNMENTS!!!

I love assignments from overseas.... its just fun... not fun fun, like complete play no work... its fun, cos its new, fresh and... exciting...its never the same...

I need to prepare for the job coming weekend...so i won't missed out much.. Will have to clear some work before i leave... and managed to do a bit today in office.

Nothing much... gotta go rest for another busy day for....* DADADADA*... SUPER MAMA G...


I feel like a super hero...heroine sometimes!

Battle of the Dynamic Duo!

Ah my day started with a good spring cleaning at home then, Ms IH drop by early before fetching me to Key Editions for collection of the sponsored stuff ... total 1800 of items and 600 bags.... wahhahaha... super many lor! Heng got WJJ and YH, offered to help me...

So we drove to Loyang, and stop by Loyang Tua Peh Gong, thought its be good to receive some blessings for myself, my family and my dearests...together with IH, WJJ and YH....

Upon reaching Key Editions... the loading wasn't a big issue... was rather worried to unload, cos' there are a few major flights of stairs to unload to.

While at Key Editions, I received a call from the organisers of Battle of Dynamic Duo, they congratulated us (me and D) for going through the prelims, SWEET! But that also meant, more work and an additional efforts for another issue in my list... ahhh.... ok lah... i choose it mah! I was glad to know my dear XW and YH went thru too, but...

THEY GOT POP CULTURE ON THE 7TH DEC....

its ok, apparently, the clash of date is not clash of competitions... managed to find out they can rush through for pop culture after Duo Battle...

As expected, we moved on to unloading... heng also got Ms J, to help bring trolley... ah bo, I don't know how we are going to carry all 1800 stuff up to the office....

Though we were manpowered with 5 people... its still super tiring...the sun, the heat, the weight, the work... but we managed to finished off the unloading swiftly we rested for a bit, then I had clear some paper work....

Then met up with D, xr and G to hangout .... went HK Cafe at plaza and watch the movie Quarantine....

DAMN SCARY... but shiok!

double checking my schedule for tmw... see ya!

mama g

The hardest thing for me... is being mama g

All the bustling about the concert has been hanging on a line for me, been absolutely crazy about work and others matters... I find it hard to breathe... literally...

MAMA G...

Damn tiring...

Those whom has one of my few networksite profile, would know about a small trival brought up, perhaps I asked for it, being the overly concern me, ... being my alt ego, mama g, i can't help but be concern and advise... well... i suppose she don't need it...even had a sidekick to help remind me that I'm not required in her life... *lol*

I chose that path... being too sincere, being to real, being a mama... afterall I've molded myself over the years to be MAMA G to my dearest kids... my UAN Artistes...

Sometimes, people, well just like the above senario, people get suspicious when you treat them too nice... or too concern, too professional, too just... too good to be true.

I remembered I've experienced this feeling before, then I come to realise, why mama.... and why does people sometimes don't get it.... don't they understand, all i'm trying to do is be honest, and shower my concern for them?

I felt how my mum or many other parents felt... like many parents, they are at synical about my existance... who is this mama g? is she for real?

I suppose as time passed, I've managed to win or rather parents allowed me to build a relationship... in hope i can help them to advise and share with them what their child is going through...

Now, at this time, for those whom don't know who is mama g, is she some nanny? but isn't she a AM? Well, b'cos I'm mama g, I'm all rolled into one.... I'm more than a AM.... I'm a friend... I'm an nanny...

I'm MAMA G...

moving on...Today was full dress... night before...I smsed every single cast member all 27 of them...

'They say, no mountain too high, No valley too wide, Nothing is Impossible, I want to see the Possible in you tomorrow...'

I thought it must have been a kind of encouragment for them...

I knew things don't and will never go smooth.... plans always change... however which, with much preparation, certain issues can be avoidable.

Brought my concerns up for every single item...

At the finale, my dears all looked so good, I felt so proud and happy... yet... I have my disappointments...

Some gave their all, most tried, but didin't DO IT... tension? hmm...

Some of my dears seemed to have grown from 1 level to another... i never said it was always for the better...

I suppose seeing this growth and choices some of them made, led me to an understanding...

Just like a rebelious teen, they want to move away to be independant, and pursue their dreams, wants... maybe with or without me...the way they want to...

Not that they are bad.... i believe everyone is good by nature... its an ATTITUDE and GROWTH..

As mama g, like a mama... I should and will fulfill my 'duties'... and let my dears...

LIVE LIVE... independantly...

I'm glad I was part of your experience ...

Remember... Live 'Live'

Always (around) your mama g

And counting on the days

Again, start my day super early.... drag a super big 'Strawberry Shortcake' bag... you know those Made in china big zipper bags, very 'pasah Malam' kind?

Inside, not my new shopping rewards... but 2nd hand clothes...for tomorrow's

Thankfully I already brought a number of stuff le... so only left this big big bag... also WJJ has tons of stuff to bring, hahaha managed to hitch a cab with him! ~~~ ok, fine, I didn't 'tong pang' I did pay or half the fare...

Anyway, I didn't expect the amount of stuff he has until the taxi boot open.... I was like ?!?!?!?!?!

he brought 2 portable cloth hangers to hand clothes, and 3 big bags ( not including those already in office ) and 1 HUGE lugguage!!!.... I think I can fit into that lugguage lor!

When he open it in office, it was filled to it rim... we all started to unpack, and shift the office.... like madness...

hahaha XW and Im, came to unload off their 2nd hand goods, I hear there are more artiste bringing more stuff tmw too.... SWEEET

Anyway, I cooked some oyster mee sua... with the cooker we had in office, small yet simple...

Hahaha... it was yummmmmmmmmmmmy!!! well that's what I think... think XW, WJJ and Im liked it.... Im had 2nds I think.... hehehe....

After they left.... rush over some emails, and like a mad rush, printing lah.... making sure i cover most stuff before tmw's rehearsal for LIVE 'LIVE' and Garage Sale... cos busy day tmw...and followed by Sunday... ai yo!!!

Left office early for an appt...

Ok lah, office is still half unpacked with mostly MR Wjj stuff... that guy ah. super many things.... MEN!!! * wink wink to Im and XW *

Need to be up early.... be in office by 8 30am... great!!! oh great!!!

Shopping, Singing, Being happy...

From there, followed another artiste, LS for a photoshoot for a local magazine, so nice, nice makeup and experience for her.... the client LOVED her....

From there had to rushed to NYP to train the students there for vocals.... yes people, I do teach!!! So fun! The students were great and keen in learning! Hope they enjoyed my company... suppose they did, wanted me to visit them agian next week for their rehearsals, cos' I will be missing out their showcase on the 5th December, I will be outstation that day for another show overseas!

But they promise to send me a video... so nice of them!

From NYP... flew down to LIVE 'LIVE' rehearsal, to cheer on my artistes... I tried to fly down le, but I missed the rehearsal... but managed to see some of them and help them go thru and advise on their performance...

I'm so happy and appreciated their love for performing!!

Stayed on to see PTG's in their dance practise... they dance until so siong lah!!
JIA YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Finally... going home... so tired... but feels good... I love what I do...

ps: I did joined The Battle of Dynamic Duo, auditions this Sun....

Yikes, have yet to really prepare... oh well.... must prepare... practise what I preach!! I need to show my artistes this is how it should be done... hopefully I can inpire them as much they inspire me...

Anyway, thanks for voting and the encouragement! Wish me luck! By the way, my team is call 'ALMOST 10'.... that includes me and my sister....

Love,
MAMA G

Rachael Chang.... Campus Superstar 2009, top 12 female finalist!

My DEAREST BABY OF LIVE ACTS...
Rachael , HAS MADE IT TO TOP 12
of Campus Superstar 2009!!!!
Support her we must!!!!

When I received the sms,'mama I'm in top 12'...I was excited with much delight... all at the same time, hope she can cope with the coming pressure!

Some of you may find her familiar, she's the girl in the NEA - Clean and Green campaign's TV AD...

Upon the day I spoke to her with her dad, she was shy, and quiet... but when she sings... I knew she had something, she just needs that extra boost of good faith in her!

I suppose its a good start for her...seeing, being in all, the definite enjoyment of limelight and showcase her passion to perform and sing...

Though we won't know how she will fare, I promised her, to stand by her in this competition... putting Live Acts on hold for her to pursue her dreams...

Blessed with talent and a great smile....

She's a girl with ambitions and drive, Doing this for herself,her dad and her late mum...

Rachael, MAMA G is always behind you!

PS: If you want to give your support to her,please let me know!
