Scarred

my hall is doing a musical for it's productions this year and it'll be on Feb 24th, 7.30 pm @ UCC (University Cultural Center @ NUS). please come and support this productions although i only play a small role in the musical, it's going to be great fun watching it.

anyway, if you guys are interested, just give me a call or sms me, for those that i don't know personally, you can drop me an email @ weiliang8@gmail.com with your contact information and i'll contact you and know you personally from then on. haha.

below is a synopsis of this year's productions:

Synopsis of "Scarred"

A crime is committed. The evidence leads to nowhere, no eye-witnesses, just suspects. Desperate to find her fiancé's murderer, Selene seeks help from her ex-classmate, childhood friend Detective Josephine Fox. As they get nearer to the truth, they are compelled to face their past.

Having their children suffer for their mistakes, parents seek forgiveness, hoping to mend their relationship. The children are stranded. Longing for the love they never had ... they desire to be in control of their lives yet not having the courage to face the past.

Scarred by memories, haunted by conscience, is there a way out of this recurring nightmare? What price will they pay for the revelation of the truth?

Hope to see some of your guys there!

The Weekend I Was Known As William

i was in bangkok for an Ultimate Frisbee tournament and the tournament was structured in such a way that everyone will be randomly placed into 1 of 10 teams for the weekend so everyone will pretty much play with people from all over asia that they don't know.

as many of you know (or don't know) the demography of the asia ultimate scene are predominantly ex-pats, mostly from states, canada and australia, so chinese names are always going to be a problem for them.

usually i would just introduce myself:

"Hi, my name is Wei - Liang."
*awkward silence from teammate*
"Just call me Liang"

but this year round my teammates took the initiative to transform my name into "William" and it really caught on with them. even so when they announced my name at the end of the tournament, they used "William". some of the guys from singapore were totally lost when some people were talking to them of a certain "William" from singapore and they couldn't stop laughing when they found out that it was me. am i gonna get hell from them when they get back from bangkok or what. haha.

anyway, bangkok was great fun, meeting people from thailand to alaska, it's a very cool mix of people who come together to play a common game. 7 games in 2 days really took a toll on my body and i'm feeling it as im typing this.

strained quads from running too much, bruised hip from a hard landing on a dive, sore thumb from a knock. rachel and eileen never fails to remind me that i always bring back injuries when i go for tournaments and i guess they're right. at least the injuries are not so bad this time round.

photos of the weekend coming soon!

Full Time

ok, so maybe i was wrong, amri scored a helluva goal to pull the score back level and Singapore actually pulled it's act together during the second half. what puzzled me was the fact that the commentators said that Singapore had a very good game.

call me unappreciative or maybe i've been watching too much EPL, like everyone else, but i really thought Singapore didn't really play well most of the time and we were quite lucky to win it.

pragmatic, politically comments since we won it? i don't know. but a win is a win i guess.

Half Time

i'm typing this at the half time of the ASEAN Football Championships and i'm saying that Singapore cannot win. it's not that i'm not patriotic or anything, but judging byt the way that we are playing, we really don't deserve to win.

i hope i'll be wrong when the final whistle goes.
