Did a commercial shoot for Cooper Vision and had a really good time! They made me up like Lara Croft/Resident Evil kinda action babe and had to slowly get into the role! Luckily the Art Director and photographer were all very nice and helped me gain that tough chick confidence! Also feels great to play a role that you aren’t in your everyday life… What made the shoot a whole lot more interesting was that I wasn’t the STAR! It was the SCORPION! Yes, a live scorpion with it’s sting still intact. It was the lead! *haha*

I really wanted to have the scorpion resting on my hand to take a photo with it! But its handler wasn’t too keen with my idea! I wonder why…He did say that he didn’t want to be in the headlines when Ms S’pore gets stung by a scorpion! Just thought that it’ll be really cool to hold a scorpion at least once in your life! Oh well… another time I guess.

I just continued to enjoy my time playing this ass-kicking hot chick Bond girl/Lara Croft kinda uber babe! How many girlfriends of mine can say that they had a gun holster strapped to their thigh??? I just hope I managed to carry off that image well! We’ll wait and see! The ad campaign should start in late November! So excited to see the final product. Can’t wait!

Love,
Jess

Had a photo shoot yesterday for Singapura Finance and the art director
decided to give me poodle hair! I think it’s my face… lately, people
have decided that I look good in really volumous hair just like the HIV
Fashion Shares campaign! Even the shoot I did for Mosche Salon gave me
big hair! *haha*

The make up artist said “Luckily, you don’t
have a face to look like a poodle!” funny…  Anyway, Had lotsa fun
shooting cos I did it with this other girl whom we are supposedly
“shopping kakis” and just had to look very happy walking around!

Keep a look out for their ad real soon! Hope it turns out good! ;P

I was also asked on stage for a brief interview with Brian Wong N Michelle Chia! When I was on stage, I simply can’t stop looking (tried not to stare) at Michelle Chia cos she’s SooOOoOooOo pretty in person! Which made me a little nervous… I diverted my attention to Brian Wong instead so that I won’t start drooling at her and loose my cool on stage! Doesn’t help that there was a camera pointing at me and lotsa peeps at the dinner table! Must “bao chi xing xiang!”

It was a quick judging, and the rest of the night we were entertained by extremely skillful ballroom dancers! Probably all friends of Citispa’s “yuan zhang” cos she’s an avid ballroom dancer herself!

What made me happiest last night was actually the time spent with Joey catching up cos I’ve not seen her for at least 1.5 months! Honestly, I really missed the MSU days during rehearsals n all of us spent loads of time together building our “rara sisterhood!” And they were all so sweet to surprise me a birthday cake to celebrate my birthday on the Finals itself! Good thing is that we still try to put in some effort to organise gatherings n meet ups! 🙂

I miss you girls!
