  • OFFSIDE: Honest Mistakes; Armie Hammer Leaked DMs & Owning My Honest Mistakes ;

    ADS: Videography & photography services, shahrulazmi.com

    Guess what? Oliver Twist (he was Oliver in the popular movie, 'Call Me By Your Name').

    I always believe, things that happen behind closed doors, should remain behind closed doors. Just like food, everybody has preferences. Some are adventurous with their food, some can eat the same dish every single day. Some share the same favorite food, while others don't. 

    Hence, like every other sex associated topic, I question the psychology and probabilities behind Armie's DMs. 

    Also, I share some of my honest mistakes that was painfully embarrassing.

    While the world is falling apart, let's think of happier times: CHILDHOOD. 

    Did you know that our Singaporean childhood game, "Chapteh" has many different names and is known around the South East Asia region? Jianzi, Da Cau, Jegichagi, Sipa and more?

    The beauty of South East Asia, we're all interconnected. We can stop fighting about Nasi Lemak now. Well, except the claim for Nasi Ambeng or Kerabu. That one? Must fight.

    In Singapore, men account for more than 66% of all suicides in 2019. Not only women experience domestic violence. 

    In this episode, we debunk the irregularities of Amber Heard’s deposition that might possibly show gaslighting signs towards Johnny Depp. Are men really suppose to just take it in and not seek help just because they’re “men”? 

    These are the numbers to call if you are experiencing domestic violence, spread the word:

  • Part 1: THIS.CONNECT: Threading Worlds Exhibition, Mental Health & Suicide Prevention Awareness In Singapore Through The Exhibition ;

    ADS: @adosejewellery on IG

    Singaporean social artist duo Hunny & Lummy, presents its multidisciplinary exhibition, ThisConnect: Threading Worlds, which aims to encourage masses to experience and converse their truths. The exhibition was first launched, in conjunction with Suicide Prevention Awareness Month in September 2020.

    In Part 1, we unpack the different elements that lead to mental distress in Singapore, especially with Covid, internally and externally. 

    I personally have been to the full exhibition at 1 Neil Road. The raw and honest documentations and audio-video artworks have touched, moved, and created greater awareness for people to re-examine fundamentally what it means to be a human being; from various dimensions of human connections and relationships, from oneself to other(s) to our natural world encapsulated via their participatory-instructional art coupled with conscious conversations, that shines through. 

    One of the works, I Feel You portrays 2 complete strangers, holding hands, face to face, being vulnerable and connecting by sharing stories of their personal truths where pain, loss, angst, existential questions towards life emerges in a 20-minute conversation amongst pairs. While one speaks, the listening party holds the safe space and only replies with, “I Feel You”. 

    Below are the dates and venues for the exhibition, all are open to public.

  • OFFSIDE #26: Living With Aging Parents ;

    In Singapore, it is common that you live with your immediate family until you get married and can buy a house. But not many people can bear or want to do the heavy lifting of living with aging parents when their senses are deteriorating as we speak. It is not easy, trust me. You argue over the slightest things. You barely sleep because you are worried that they might fall or die in their sleep. 

    But, I also realize it is not the time to pick our wounds over what they did and what they didn't. It is a privilege if we did that.  

    One advice: They only have so much time and despite the silly times that they might have put us through, look at their great sacrifices as well. Fear of regretting is forever.  Also, parents listening, be easy on your kids. They're still trying to figure it out as much as you are (yes, Mama & Papa). But, I'm sure they love you with all their hearts.

  • OFFSIDE #25: Celebrities That Age Well, Baybeats 2020 & ScottyLum ;

    Sometimes, you just want to look at pretty things just as it is. James Marsden & Monica Bellucci is at the top of my list.

    Did you get to go to Baybeats 2020 this year? I'm not a Baybeat go-er but, I'd have to say, it looks interesting this year. Still prefer crowded live music festival.

    And the only reason why I brought up ScottyLum is because, it's just interesting to watch how people actually get heated discussing different faiths. When are people gonna realize that, none is wrong, it is just to learn, right? No validation needed. We should learn from each other. But also, I think there is no moderator. 

    Join me and share your opinions. You know where to find me.
