Chinese: 双子星 English: The Ultimatum Genre: Drama Episodes: 30 Country: Singapore Year: 2009 Rating: 8.6
My Though: I abandoned this drama a couple of days, because it became boring! I'm not really like the scenes about the Ye family! It was very dragging and always the same: To be the CEO of the company! I was also missing Song Qiao in couple of episodes!
I'm not really like the ending! I didn't know Sun Jie gonna die! I didn't know Yu Chen gonna die! Only love the ending between Sun Min & Song Qing
There are so many hate in here, but there's also a chapter for love! I love Song Qiao with Sun Jie and Song Qing with Sun Min After Sun Min became a 'woman' there were only a few scenes from Sun Min and Song Qing together! I think thats a pity! Because missing the funny parts in this drama!
I think Zhou Zi Da's character could written out of the drama! His character wasn't really useful and you can miss him in this drama!
Everybody thinks Ren De is the most evil! But in my opinion its really Yu Chen!! She killed so many peeps only to hide her real identity!
Felicia did a great job in here as a tomboy! I can compare me as her character Sun Min ^^ I'm also a tomboy!!
I watched this drama because of him! I fall in love with Zhang Zhen Huan! HAHA Can he really make cakes? HAHA I want a piece of it! Prince Of Cake ^^

Summary: Ye Song Nian, the boss of Phoenix Corporation, raped his employee, Zheng Wen Yu, who was already pregnant with her husband's child at that time. A few months later, both Wen Yu and Song Nian's second wife, Su Zhen, gave birth to daughters in the same hospital and due to the nurses' negligence, the identities of the baby girls were swapped. Wen Yu realizes that her biological daughter suffers from congenital heart disease, and out of a mother's desire for her child to receive the best medical care coupled with hatred towards Song Nian, she decided to capitalize on the situation by perpetuating the mistake. Thus, Ye Yu Chen and Fang Song Qiao, whose identities were swapped, grew up in 2 disparate environments

Memorable Scene: - Song Qing & Sun Min scenes. Funny when Song Qing though Sun Min was a man and fall in love with her! And very touching when Sun Min got trauma and Song Qing was still @ her side to support her! Love Prince Of Cake! - Sun Jie's dead! To protect his love he sacrifice his life! Touching - Sun Jie appear everywhere where Song Qiao and Ren Yi is. Funny ^^ OK much much more but these are the most touching and most love!

And currently don't really know what to watch I'm just very behind with everything! Music, Movies & Series
I'm not really know where its about. Only know the 2 female main character identities were swapped and they grew up in two disparate environments. That's it! I even didn't read the summary! Let it surprise me :)
Mother says it was very good but the reviews were not that good right? Well I will see and review mines after finishing it!

Big cast with two 'ah jie's' in the lead! Zoe Tay & Fann Wong. Li Nan Xing & Tay Ping Hui as the male leaders!
Looking forward to Felicia's character!! I'm not really like her but after The Golden Path I got an another view at her! Also Jerry Yeo & Constance Song's character! Are they really so bad/evil! And ofcourse don't forget Zhang Zhen Huan! He's the only reason why I watch this! Because I don't want to watch Together! Its this or that! So I prefer this more ^^
This serie contains 30 episodes! I hope it's good or I get stuck with 30 long sleepy boring episodes
Chinese: 至尊红颜 English: Women Of Times Genre: Drama Episodes: 30 Country: Singapore Year: 2006 Rating: 8.4
My though: A serie about the ups and downs in the family! Quit boring actually, but it was quite interesting. How big a family is and how much trouble there is between everybody in the family. The hate, the loyalty, the trust! What did u think about the ending? I was hoping Xi Yi chose for Han Zhe. Although Zheng Mu changed many for Xi Yi, but still was hopen she chose Han Zhe! But other side it was actually a good choice!
Julian Hee was the most eye catching for me! I saw him in many series but in here you see will him better than ever! Its not only because his role but also his looks!
Felicia nomination was not really deserved. Her screen time wasn't much and her acting wasn't above Aileen Tan. Her character and acting is very strong. I think she deserve the nomination more!
A minor role for Zzen ^^

Funny in the beginning but became serious and untruthful. - The death of Ruo Qi's parents. It was the fault of Zheng Yue, she regret what she did. But makes only an evil Ruo Qi! - The support from Han Zhe to Xi Yi. When she is in trouble Han Zhe is always around. - In the beginning they hate eachother, but further in the serie they gonna like eachother. Yu Qi & You Er scenes weren't many but very memorable! ETC

Chinese: 黄金路 English: The Golden Path Genre: Drama Episodes: 30 Country: Singapore Year: 2007/2008 Rating: 8.6
My though: The serie was a great! Although I'm not really like the timeline and the ending! It's possible to make the serie longer but I think that will be bored for the viewers, but in this way the story was to rush in the last 10 episodes. Everybody want a happy ending, but I can't say from this serie. I think it's maybe better to give the viewers an unacceptable ending, but that's not what we wish!
View On the Main Cast: Chen Li Ping: She played very well, but how later in the serie. How less we see from her! The strong acting in the beginning making a little bit disappointment later. Her nomination for Best Actress was really deserve for only the beginning of the serie! Although She played the mother in the serie, but due her age and the other co-stars it was really NOT! Li Nan Xing:Why he isn't nominated for Best Actor? He was really good in this serie! His co-operation with Cai Pei Xuan & Felicia Chin was really good! But as stepson from Chen Li Ping? LOL their age are average. Tay Ping Hui: Masterclass acting!! This is actually the first time I see him in a bad role! But it was really fabulous! Although I'm not really like his character! So Cruel! His nomination for Best Actor was really deserved!! Chew Chor Meng: My first serie of him. His acting is really great! But wasn't it a little bit too less to won the Best Supporting Actor awards!? His onscreen scenes weren't many but many enough to win it! Felicia Chin: I must say I'm not really like Felicia onscreen. I also must say her acting and character in here were very good! Her nomination for Best Actress was also deserved! Cai Pei Xuan: She's my favo and this the first serie I watch from her! Her acting is great! And his co-operation with Li Nan Xing was also great! Her nomination for Best Supporting Actress was really really deserved! Although She didn't got any change to The Little Nyonya's nomination Joanne Peh: Her role in here was a small one. I though she got more because she's also a part from the family. But when I count her screen time is actually average like the one from Joey Feng Joey Feng: She's the newcomer of the serie! Second Runner Up of Miss Singapore 2007! I must say she's pretty good for her first performance!

Summary: The story is set in the early 80s. The protagonist, ‘Xiao Gu’, is a young widow with 3 children. Together, the family of 4 set up a street hawker stall, “Happy Restaurant” in Chinatown, selling cooked food. Xiao Gu gets to know a guy, named Ah Jin. Although he seems to be trustworthy, in reality he is a robber.
On the day of their marriage, Ah Jin’s involvement in the robbery of a blacksmith factory is brought to light, and in the tussle with the police, he is fatally wounded. On his deathbed, he pleads with Xiao Gu to take care of his 2 children, a son and a daughter. With her ever optimistic approach to life, Xiao Gu readily takes on the challenge of raising the 5 children.
With Xiao Gu’s capability, she not only succeeds in running “Happy Restaurant”, but also ventures into the coffeshop and wet market businesses. While things seem to be finally looking up for Xiao Gu, her 5 grown up children on the other hand, are either plagued by financial woes or are entangled with affairs of the heart…
Xiao Gu’s elder son, Kaida is a medical student while her 2nd son, Kaiji is studying law. Her youngest child and only daughter, Kaiqi is also an undergraduate. While her own children seem to have a bright future ahead of them, the same cannot be said of Ah Jin’s off springs.
Ah Jin’s son, Jinlong has a carefree nature, and does not have any direction in life. As for his daughter, Jinfeng, she has her mind set on being a TV artiste, and is therefore not interested in pursuing her studies.
Except for Kaiqi, Jinlong has always regarded Xiao Gu and her family with enmity, thinking that she is somewhat responsible for his father’s death and that she has made use of his father’s loot to rise to riches. While he has a secret liking for Kaiqi, as a result of their disparity in station, Jinlong keeps his feelings for Kaiqi to himself.
Although Jinlong is at loggerheads with Kaijie, his sister, Jinfeng on the other hand, is especially on close terms with him. Jinlong suspects that Kaijie has a hand in the sudden drowning of Jinfeng. He breaks away from the Huang family, and goes astray. He joins the secret society, and after some time, rises to be the infamous ‘Loan shark King’.
As for Kaijie, he joins the police force after graduating with a law degree. He makes a name for himself in the police force, after having led a number of successful operations. At the opposing ends of the law, Jinlong and Kaijie’s feud continues.
Kaida discovers that Kaijie is responsible for Jinfeng’s death. However, he decides to cover up for his brother. Saddled by guilt, he soon becomes mentally affected, and is unable to fulfil his dream of becoming a doctor. After her graduation, Kaiqi becomes a journalist. While researching the crimes of the underworld, Kaiqi learns that Jinlong is already one of the underworld chiefs. She tries to persuade Jinlong to leave the underworld, but to no avail as he reasons that he has already ventured onto path of no return….
The friction between Jinlong and Kaijie intensifies. Forced by circumstances, Jinlong has to leave Singapore. As for Kaijie, following investigation by his superiors, he has also gone into hiding. After much effort, Jinlong manages to trace the whereabouts of Kaijie, with the intention of killing him. However, in the end, he changes his mind, and instead returns to Singapore to give himself up.
For the past 20 years, in spite of the various challenges that come her way, Xiao Gu has always take them in her stride. She sells all her properties and donates the proceeds to charities. Together with Kaida who is recovering from his mental illness, she re-starts the “Happy Restaurant” business.
Being ever optimistic, Xiao Gu still stands by her personal belief and dictum: “A day passes whether you laugh or cry. So, shouldn’t you choose to laugh your day away instead?” [credits to mediacorp.tv]

I'm totally outdate! Where can I get the newest serie of Singapore! I'm trying so hard to find it! I started with an old Singapore serie from 2007/2008 The Golden Path aka 黄金路
The story is set in 1982 and throught the 30 episodes it will spinning 25 years long. Its a story about the Family Huang & Jin, who embroiled in conflicts of interest, webs of deceit, love, hatred and vengeance.
The cast is big: Chen Li Ping, Li Nan Xing, Tay Ping Hui, Chew Chor Meng, Felicia Chin, Cai Pei Xuan, Joanne Peh, Joey Feng, Nat Ho, Wang Yu Qing, Priscilla Chan, Alen Tern, Huang Wen Yong and Guest Starring Edmund Chen, Joey Swee, Huang Yi Liang.
My view is on Cai Pei Xuan! She was nominated for best supporting actress @ Star Awards 2009 for this role! And I'm kind of curious of her acting! This is also my first serie of her.
Also my first serie of Chew Chor Meng He won the best supporting actor @ Star Awards 2009 for this role! Curious of his acting! Because he's already a veteran!
I'm not so into Felicia Chin. So I hope her role in here is better than I hope and was it really a nomination for Best Actress @ Star Awards 2009 worth? Same questions marks are also for Chen Li Ping!
Joanne Peh is one of my favorite in here! She's only a supporting role! Hope she got many screentime!
This morning I watched the Star Awards 2009 ceremony! Its from 26 April 2009! Because I don't had internet around that time so its delayed! This post is not about the result! The results I posted before! Its about the fashion I saw some beautiful dresses/outfit from the women and some ugly ones! It was very hard to find some nice pics! But i found some So u tell me what do u think? +/-
+ Belinda's code is copper! Glamorous short copper dress with long copper necklace and nice high copper open sandals I don't think her hair suite this outfit! It remind me to Minnie Mouse! And last year Michelle Chia got a similar hair look!
[from left to right] + Pei Xuan in a silver short dress! Shining like a disco ball! With a pair of nice silver pumps! Suit with the dress She don't wear a necklace and I think because her short hair it was better to wear one! ** - Eelyn wearing a black one-side shoulder dress The dress is black transparent so that u can see her belly! And I'm not sure but maybe she's wearing pants under the dress! The effect is really way below! Although to shoes suit the dress Is the necklace out? because they all don't wear any necklace ** - Too simple for Xiang Yun In the previous Star Awards she wore more out-standings outfit and this one is just simple black dress with black pumps The belt saved the dress a little bit but maybe in another colour it was better And the red handbag? ERRR nice colorful but i think i will suit a white or silver one or something same colour with the belt ** -/+ Ng Hui wearing a long silver dress with silver open sandals This dress is very nice but the V-form is so ugly!
[from left to right] + Jesseca wearing a yellow one-side shoulder dress with open sandals! This outfit really suit her. She is tall so a long dress is perfect But i think her hair was better in another way expect straight! ** - This is really an ugly outfit! Felicia wore two outfits that day and both are not really impressive! All black with a shining blue short-pant/skirt The skirt/pant is too high, the transparent black is ugly! Better without the transparent! And maybe other shoes! Black Black Black ** Xiang Yun [above] ** - Jeanette wearing a rainbow halter long dress! This is really not!! It really don't suit her and her personality! Hair is way below! Tie it up was better instead of some waves ** - Zoe wearing a simple strapless If you got long legs its ok But further is so NOT But it is so empty! She could wear some jewelry ** ++ Yvonne is wearing a pink baby-doll I love that baby-doll Hair good, shoes good, earrings good! Only the watch but i pretend i don't see it ** - Vivian Qian Yi Fung ** - Joanne's first green dress was better than this one! Its just like Zoe's one So empty!
