Strong Teacher

Never never in my life will I expect such a thing to happen to my chinese opera sub career. It came really all too suddenly and I wasn't prepared. I was only told that I will be carried up by Ang one month before the show. How am I supposed to lose enough weight by that time for Ang to carry me? Carry me is not an easy feat cuz I know my own weight very well!

Fortunately, on that day, my very strong teacher managed to carry me up swiftly. I was so freaked out everytime she does that. Here are 2 precious photos that someone took of that very moment.




Many people commented that I should let go of my right arm since I am supposed to be dead. How can I still cling so tightly onto teacher leh?


I told them many times that it is simply not possible. NOT possible! I will fall to the ground if I did that. Then people argue that I will look more dead if I can drop one arm and let it dangle. I looked quite unnatural with both arms around the neck.


Haiz, not that I don't want to but I really cannot. I rather that it looked unnatural like thia than to fall flat on the stage. Many people also argue that if I hold tight, I won't fall. Well, I did hold very tight but I will still fall if I let go of one hand I can feel it. I can feel that teacher already used up her strength to lift me up and I cannot afford to move an inch. Shifting my weight around will make me heavier. I told YH that she is not the one being carried so she don't know how it feels like to be carried like this by another lady that is 50+ years old. Try it... then tell me about it... :P


I think everytime Ang wants to do this show, I will have to go lose some weight lor. Until maybe she decided to let someone else do my role.....

I think if you let one hand dangle, some of your weight will shift from your teacher's elbow to her wrist, then she might not be able to hold you.

At least she never dropped u...I dropped at least 3 people...N they got hurt cos I don't have the stamina to carry them so in the end, no carrying for Sheng Amai.
