Life after exams

You must be wondering what happened to me after exams at the end of April.

No, I wasn't shaking legs at home after all the weeks of hard work.

No, I wasn't buried under the piles of "How to write a perfect resume" trying to produce a sure-sell resume.

No, I wasn't called up for interview so often that I don't have time for other things (in fact, I didn't even receive any call to go for interview which makes me feel very worried).

So what have I done so far after exams?

1. Finished marking a few piles of exams paper and there are some more to go
2. Went for 3-hr crash course on radio broadcasting
3. After the crash course (only 1!), I had produced half a morning programme, a full afternoon programme and a night-time programme with 3 different mentors to date. I did the talking, pushing buttons, news-reading and of course, the bonus is I get to choose to play my favourite songs (in Mandarin, English and guess what, Hokkien and Cantonese haha...)

That's the 机遇 I mentioned earlier. I think I need to tell you all this because some of you have been asking me very curiously. In case you want to catch me on air, I can tell you that it's extremely difficult.

Why?

Because I didn't appear in some conventional stations like FM933 or FM1003. I am on Rediffusion. What? What Rediffusion? Maybe you are more familiar with its Chinese name.

丽的呼声. Heard that before? If you haven't, go ask you parents, maybe your grandparents. I am sure they have lived to see the glorious days of this subscribed radio channel, the one and only in Singapore.

I wonder if I can take some pictures of myself in the studio when I go solo this Wednesday night. Yep, I am going solo soon and I still mixed up the buttons on the equipment and very often pushed the wrong buttons. Good luck to me on Wednesday.



P/S: If you ever found anyone who subscribed to Rediffusion, please let me know.
