I never thought Double Chin was that good a show. :)
It's the most SINCERE, PERSONAL, REFLECTIVE, and HONEST Singaporean kids programme. Kudos especially to the producers and the scriptwriters working on the show as well as cute little Valerie as Chin Fei. Extremely heart warming rendition of what could be a cold meaningless show. Oh... And Flora is wonderful too! Haha. Can't forget the resident clown. :D
Double Chin could have easily become a boring half hour torture of Singaporean accented British accent kids trying their best to showcase their young prodigy like acting talents. THANK GOD it isn't. Unlike other Kids Central projects Sports On (SHEESH! boring!), Whizzes of The Void Deck (impractical!) or even the (very weird attempt at a detective mini drama) R.E.M, Double Chin is seriously heartfelt and for once isn't just a stupid show lah. Double Chin could well join the ranks of 'I NOT STUPID'.
Seriously. It took me awhile to realize that THE NEMESIS in Double Chin was actually the little bad voice inside all of us, trying to make and break us. We tell ourselves that we can't do this or we can't do that. Or we place blame on our closest friends due to misjudgment. The short kids drama manages to deal with this issue very well. In fact it's a waste if not every pre-teen or teenager watches the show. It really brings out the importance of believing in yourself. Haha. I loved the parts where Nemesis tried to bring Chin Fei down. It just shows me how Nemesis has actually struck at all of our hearts before. LOLX. It's extremely funny and yet it probably has happened in our lives.
It's great to know that there's a show addressing this issue... The issue of self-confidence or the lack of it in young Singaporeans. :) Really wish to see more shows addressing this issue instead of silly shows like R.E.M. (WHAT THE HECK DOES THE SHOW, R.E.M MEAN ANYWAY?) Haha. I believe that Double Chin was one of the few Kids Central successes ever. That show really touched me in a way no Auntie Agony column has. :D Haha. LOVE THE SHOW. I WANT A RE-RUN OF IT!

P.S: Dearie... HOPE you enjoy your hang out session with Kenneth today! :) Gonna miss ya loads.
This blog contains the memories of two people who hated each other at first, managed to get to know each other anyway, got attached for a year plus and then decided to break up.
They are very different people especially in personality and even though they love(ed) each other very much, there are some things that because of love, you have to let go.
Just happened that it would have to be this relationship.
They now remain very very good friends. (Time will tell if this sentence actually holds.)
