[PD] Hello!
Watermelon sugar high!
That is horrible.
Hi.
[PD] Hello.
Hi ~
- Hello. - Hi
Do you guys remember what you did together as a pair, last year?
What the freak?
Oh yes!
If you forget then that’s mean.
I’m trying to remember because we take so many videos together in a year.
Last year..
It’s the yearly recap!
This video lor.
It was the iconic screen shot where I like that *cry*
No then your sian face.
Did we talk about our resolutions?
Oh I remember!
We talked about the things we were looking forward to next year.
Right?
[PD] So both of you concluded your 2020 together,
do you remember what you said in that video?
I remember very clearly.
I was like ok with life.
And this this guy over here was like saying:
*2020 was not a great year for Zhin*
Right?
Was it I saved a lot last year?
You said finally you hit 5 digit.
And then I say I got nothing but money. xD
My savings bank account right,
hit a number it has never hit before.
- Okay you say how much. - 5 digits!
And then you go and buy iPad.
Then the money went back down.
Next year January I want to buy MacBook Pro…
♪ MONEY - LISA ♪
So I did talk about wanting to buy a house.
And I actually did buy a house.
It was something that I was really looking forward to.
But because we stay in Singapore,
you need to be legally married in order to own a HDB flat.
And unfortunately I split up with my partner.
So we had to forfeit our flat.
But I feel like taking those steps were important for me.
And I’m still in the process of recovering from that and moving on.
[PD] Do you guys remember what you said in that video?
OH!
Yes you said you wanted to settle down.
True love and start the baby making process.
Oh my god.
This is like the official retiring of Rainae.
Okay I’ll mouth the words and then you dub it over for me okay?
Go.
You are not even saying anything.
She got a boyfriend basically.
His name is..
Eh don’t la! Okay don’t reveal.
Don’t reveal all!
[PD] Rainier mentioned that last year was very tiring for all of you.
Our team was cut by half last year.
This year, we are one full force.
And we all are very close and everything.
TSL YouTube Team is the #DreamTeam.
- Let’s say who we’re grateful for. - Okay.
- Mm, we say one by one okay? - Okay.
So for me is like Sew,
Rainier,
Xiao Jes, (Jessalyn)
Amanda,
Jeanette,
Wen, (CuiWen)
Victoria,
Estee.
Is there anyone else?
I feel like there’s someone with the name starting with H.
- I remember is H A something. - Yeah it’s H A something right?
Sounds like it I guess.
So I guess it’s Hakim. (Actually it’s Haziq)
So Hakim will be here. (Again, it’s Haziq)
This year was a year that I started actually actually working out.
Like going to the gym 5 times a week that kind.
Moving out.
And moving in with Chow Chow.
We also have Doreen our very good friend.
- Who is also our house mate. ⁃ Our pet.
So now the three of us stay together and that’s new.
I feel like 2020 I was surrounded by toxic people.
And I was trying to navigate who are my real friends, who are not my real friends.
This year I was able to figure out like
These are nah,
these are yes.
So I’m trying to inch back my way,
into finding positivity and surrounding myself with positive people.
I picked up a new hobby.
So I picked up surf skating and long boarding.
I bought like 4 boards in one month.
Skate boarding is something that I never thought that I would attempt in my life.
Because I stepped on a skateboard once when I was in my twenties and I almost died.
I don’t know what inspired me to go and buy.
I think I was watching surf skating videos on Instagram.
Then I was like oh maybe I should just try because it looks quite fun.
I’m not a regular mom, I'm a cool mom.
I’m a cool mom!
Oh my god yes!
I am now an official spin fanatic.
I love going to spin classes.
One of the things that I do want to achieve is I want to reach my number of rides.
And then be able to be a spin instructor.
If I squeeze it together, its 'new-chapter'.
This is really like a new chapter of my life.
I still cannot believe that even when I’m living my day to day right,
I’m thinking like oh my god.
Finally I get to live my life not feeling sad or wondering am I going to find someone?
Is there somebody out there?
Or am I just going to be single until I hit a certain age where I just have to have kids on my own.
Because I really want a baby of my own.
Chill.
It’s not say that I slack.
Right?
It’s more so that I finally found a great balance.
I’m able to do my work and still finding balance to go on cruise.
That’s one.
I got to try things that I never thought I would have done.
Like?
One thing was bungee jumping.
Another thing is drag.
I still feel err..
You still can’t lip sync so it’s fine.
I feel like the keyword of 2021 is Manifest.
I’ve heard this word so often.
If you manifest it, you want it, you manifest it,
you absorb good energy and then it will come to you.
I think my word is Tough.
It was one of the tougher years that I have experienced so far.
And that’s okay.
I am also learning the importance of moving on.
Even though it’s very difficult.
Guess what?
Tomorrow!
As of today’s shooting date, tomorrow she will be a legally married women!
On that day we filmed a TSL Plays episode.
He said he chose that day because he knew that there will be a shoot.
And I will bother to put on make up and wear something not disgusting.
After that shoot, we went to eat at Tiong Bahru.
He suddenly said “oh, I bring you to a place.”
At that time I wanted to eat ice cream.
Because I must eat dessert after my meal.
So I was like:
‘Where are you bringing me??’
‘I don’t want, I want to eat ice cream’
‘You tell me you want to bring me eat ice cream’
‘I wanted to eat my ice cream you know’
He bring me up some stairwell, looks a bit dodgy.
I thought he was going to murder me.
Then in the end it was a Fotomat Studio.
We took some photos and had fun a little bit.
And then suddenly..
Suddenly he propose lor.
Sorry I’m a very bad storyteller.
Suddenly he just proposed.
Both of us recently attended.
- Ahh.. we almost scared them - Sike~
Both of us recently attended Jerald’s wedding.
It was nice to see some of our close friends there.
And of course, to see Jerald up there with his beloved wife.
Game over! (just kidding)
I became the proud grandfather of Singapore’s first born in caught captivity
Pygmy hippo called Miata.
Because hippos are my favorite animal.
And Miata is adorable.
2021 the biggest highlight for me was definitely The Algorithm.
Where we shot together as a couple.
Yes.
This year I got..
OH!
So shy! XD
This year is also the first year where I got a lead role for a drama.
WOO! *yay Zhin*
Look at you.
To feeling lighter maybe.
I guess that’s something that I know will eventually happen.
But it’s very hard to imagine when that becomes reality.
Yup.
More stability and like a clearer vision to what we can look forward to.
Because I think it’s very very emotionally draining to either
have something that you’re counting down towards and then it’s taken from you,
or you are not even..
Like you are too scared to even hope for something.
For me I thought that I could have a nice Hai Di Lao meal
with my family and my partner for my birthday,
but then they are like NOPE!
Only maximum two people.
So they was really sad.
So, she’s taking a sabbatical.
YESSS!!
She’s taking a sabbatical to go to United States to join her bb muack muacks.
YES!
These LIPS have not touched another LIPS for 2 YEARS.
These EYES have not seen things that she want to see for 2 YEARS!
T.T
My wedding is probably in May next year?
Oh?
The month is set already?
Yes. The date also set already.
EH?!?!
So I asked Amanda if she needs bridesmaids.
I’ll be more than happy to be one for her.
Then she say no la better not.
Because I might get pregnant next year.
The heck! >:(
She keeps saying that I’ll get pregnant and get married by next year latest.
It’s not going to happen.
It hope it will.
- NDPeeps, let me see the NDP song. - Oh my god so cute.
I want!! :(
Okay la, in that way,
if he is going to sing, I’m going to host.
- The NDP Parade. - YES!
♪ I don’t know about you. ♪
♪ I’m feeling 22. ♪
♪ - Everything's going to be alright~ ♪ - Correct.
