The world's a stage...
I'm in the latecomer's queue.
I am currently an undergrad in NTU. My major is psychology and the most common question asked when I reveal that fact is whether I can read his/her mind. Honestly, I cannot lah. Currently, I am daydreaming about my future hoping to achieve 2 things i enjoy alot in life: Theatre and Psychology (:
Studying Accountancy in NTU and living a second life in theatre, where (fortunately) the former will end in 2012 May. Believes that there is a connection between numbers and the arts, or maybe, I am just living in denial all the time.
Law student.
Currently experiencing "quarter-life" crisis.
Aspiring Rapunzel.
Carries an overwhelming amount of passion for an overwhelming number of things, coping with the limited amount of time.
Struggling against a degenerating capacity to remember, and aging year by year.
Like anybody else.
An undergrad at NUS.
Coming out with this line is harder than any paper I've ever written.
Some people say that I look like an ah-lian when I’m quiet and sounds like an auntie when I speak.
I embrace all these comments and aspire to be an elegant ah-lian and intelligent auntie!
Graduated from “The Brainforest of Clementi” with an Honours degree in Life Sciences. As I am currently learning to write and direct plays properly, I do not have any work that is worthy of mention as yet.
Sometimes we need to be crazy, to be human.
I started doing Theatre thinking that I want to do Film.
Now I'm studying Film determined to do Theatre.
Funny yea?

通过剧场与戏剧技巧,我们融入体验性学习 -帮助学生自我发掘及激起他们对社会的关怀。
我们深信在学习过程中必须删除独白,鼓励师生们进行创意对话及参与讨论,进而刺激学生的反思与批判性思维。
所以,我们的教学法能:
• 授予学生们社交手法重要性及实际知识
• 让学生们了解本身如何影响整个社会,并从中学习如何使自己成为更积极,更负责任的公民
我们在教学和演出时运用的剧场/戏剧技巧包括:
• 论坛剧场
• 剧场游戏
• 静像剧场
• 脑袋里的刑警
• 欲望彩虹
• 亚历山大松懈法

有关 *scape
*scape is a 2 ha youth community space located in Orchard, comprising the 1.2 ha site beside Orchard Cineleisure, the Youth Park & Youth Centre, and the Somerset Skate Park.
*scape is essentially a space for the youth, by the youth. With programmes and its facilities available for participation and rent respectively to promote, showcase and nurture youth talents and interests. Currently, plans are underway to develop the vacant 1.2 ha site into a facility for our youth to enjoy and be involved in a myriad of activities. These include sports, performances, entrepreneurship opportunities, community events and recreational programmes.
To involve our youth in the creation of their own space, a consultation exercise was conducted in 2005 to gather their ideas on *scape. In total, over 2,200 responses were gathered from this exercise.
The ideas consolidated from the responses were distilled into six conceptual spaces as the concept plan for *scape to reflect the youth’ interests and desires. These six conceptual spaces are:
1. The Street + Market:
• a street to promote street culture where fashion, street art & performances (graffiti, hip-hop etc) can happen.
• a place for youth to test the market with their ideas and inventions, and also a food place.
2. The Warehouse:
• a sheltered space for youth activities like dance, theatre, exhibitions.
3. The Playground:
• an outdoor space for youth activities like skateboarding, movie screenings, hang-outs etc. This will include the skatepark.
4. The Grid:• a place for cyber culture to take root, and also a surfer’s paradise.
This will include IT & gaming labs for digital imaging, game design and training.
5. The Cache:• a proposed library, together with a gallery and screening room
6. The Studio:• a studio for music creation and band practices
