i live in your world, so i follow your rules 既然我活在你的世界，我跟着你的规则好了.
August 6, 2010“Maybe, in the end, even the lies we tell define us. And better, some of them, than our most earnest attempts at the truth.” — Malouf, David. Johnno.
do we really want the lies we tell to define us? perhaps, the mission i was hoping to embark on was a mission beyond a hapless individual, and maybe just, i should give up the fight. well, at least i know, i fought the fight. my conscience is clear.
i live in your world, so i follow your rules. only in flesh, not in spirit though.
do we really want the lies we tell to define us? more than the most earnest attempts at the truth?
my question is: do we really?
whatever your decision is, i’ll keep smiling.
“也许到了最后， 我们所说的谎言更明确地断定我们是谁. 胜于我们最诚恳地尝试去寻找真理.” — Malouf, David. Johnno.
真的要我们的谎言来断定我们是谁吗？可能我想执行的任务远超一个人所能做的能力范围， 也许是时候考虑放弃。 至少我知道，我打过这一仗. 我问心无愧.
既然我活在你的世界，我跟着你的规则好了. 但只在形体上，不在灵魂.
真的要我们的谎言来断定我们是谁吗？ 胜于我们最诚恳地尝试去寻找真理吗？
我想问的是: 真的要吗?
无论你的决定是什么, 我会继续地微笑.
that’s life.
I don’t believe in lying. It’s v tiring to think of ur plot and making another lie to cover ur previous ones.
Some ppl lie to get their way thru. Tsk tsk. Shame on them then. Not sincere and not true to ownself.
If only everything were much simpler, this would be a much happier place to live in. Jia you :)
Be in the world, but not of the world, Elvin. . . ^^,
There’s no need to fight to prove the truth is true. The truth that lies beneath the truth will eventually prevail itself, whether people like it or not. Like how you always put it, “The hour before dawn is always the darkest.” The sun will soon rise. Hold on, hang in there. . .
FIGHTING!! ^^,
rather a emotinal post.
keep smiling.
We make up 10 lies to cover 1. Thats wat i always tell my children.
I agree that very often, we live in others’ world, we have to live with their rules in order to survive. At times, maybe against our conscience. However, i will voice out my resentment and watever i tink shldnt b tat way. Tats when i 忍无可忍！
Ppl who are not genuine, wont dare to voice out or pen down their tots like u! Only the genuine ones & those with clear conscience will.
I like this phrase, on your pic! “The Hour before Dawn is always the Darkest!” I live on this belief eh bro! =) Oh, how nice if Elves can watch sunrise 2gether! heehee
U r not alone. If need to fight, we fight together!
Be happy and do what you think is right. We trust you and we will always support you.
hope.. very soon, the world would be urs!..
The biggest challenge is “i live in your world, but i’ll change your rules to fit mine…
Silence doesn’t mean you’ll follow…
Voicing out loud won’t always be the winner..
lies only if they are harmless…but dun make it a habit or you’ll get lost in the ‘lying world’!
ya.. me just love this line “The hour before dawn is always the darkest”,am sure you’ll see your sunrise soon!Good Luck!
everything will be fine, we all trust you cos we know YOU:)
Hi
just few sentences.it does make me look thru you alittle and that can let me learn not nothing but very little.
I want to thank you for making us putting a little time( just little effort) to put in words here.
I really like you very much. Hey guy, go on and you shall fight with your heart out. Do not forget me but forgive me for putting e wrong words already said here.
Hang in there!
Nothing is impossible for you. :) Jiayou.

Felt really hurts to see GL being bias against you…
no matter what i will believe in whatever you had said…
you wouldn’t accuse him for no reasons, he is indeed very bias against you
will continue to support in whatever things you do…
happy to know that you will keep smiling =)
Hi, just got to know the the GL issue. Dont get too upset about it. Leave him alone and he cant do anything to you.
By the way, have you climbed Mount Kinabalu in Sabah before? Would you be interested to climb Mount Kinabalu with a bunch of people that you prolly dont know and will not disturb ur peace? It is April 2011 during the good friday weekend. Do let us know if you are interested. Lets do something that u will cherish later in ur life =) will send you more info if you are interested. Cheers
Hi Elvin,yes i agreed,i hate liars too.They should just disappear from the earth.
There is definitely justice in the world.
Most important is to stay true and be sincere and its all that matter.
I will believe you cos i know who you are :-)
no matter wat had happen , the most important thing is be urself…n everthing will go smoothly…be steady Elvin…we will always suppport u…
smile always….
i like to watch your movie that put up.
Leong Eugenie
no matter what has happens, i will be on your side.
I wish that you’ll have the moral courage to stand up for what you believe in. Moral courage may translate into stupidity by some but a person who is cowardly and without integrity will never be able to hold his head up high.
Just follow your heart, your mind…
人在做，天在看。奸人是不会有好下场的。不要为这些无关痛痒的事而影响你的情绪。时间能证明一切。你的努力是大家都可以看得到。往往被重视的人是会遭人妒嫉的和陷害的。
希望你可以坦然地面对一切，乐观的态度，无论有多少的挫折，任然地可以微笑的往前走。
加油，加油，再加油！ ！ ！
When one start to lie a thing, they will need more lies to cover up. One day the whole thing will a big mess cos of too many lies and the truth leaks out. We just sit back, relax and wait…
We always know whatever you do is conscience clear. We believes and have faith in you. Add oil! =)
Everyone is entitled to our own views and opinions.
As long as it is not meant to harm others, there is nothing to be ‘afraid of’.
We need not bother how others think though we are living in a ‘not so perfect’ world – we may be bounded by rules but we can choose to stand firm on our views. Truth behold.
Keep smiling :>
这个世界的规则是坏人设计的，由好人来玩。
by the way, 你也可以设计自己的规则，由他来玩你的世界。世界中的世界，规则中的规则。给他个晕头转向！
本来觉得你只有好看而已，
But now I think you are so COOL!
让我们一起努力把身边的坏人当成空气，再一起努力的向空气展示我们的风度吧！
很难，所以共勉之。
Dear Elvin,
All of us feel that the unjustifiable treatment which u have received are intolerable.
Incorrigible people definitely need some self reflection.
You have fought your fight.
You have fought for your rights.
You will live with no regrets.
We admire your courage.
We empathize with your grievance.
Do not despair.
You are not alone.
You have all the moral support from the people who loves you.
Life has to go on.
And yes. Keep smiling. =)
Take this issue with a pinch of salt.
Bury the hatchet.
Let bygones be bygones.
Stay happy.
Stay healthy.
Stay strong.
Love,
Melissa, Medeline, Adeline(NUH), Angeline & Emily.
不需要任何谎言，不需要任何解释，只要觉得问心无愧，发自内心的话就是真理

Your post sounds pretty emotional..
I have no stand to judge how you feel, but from my piece of little advice, “Your mindset determines the way you live”. Stop all the depressing thoughts from haunting your mind, you don’t live for the world. Even if the world is corrupted, we don’t have to follow through.
God blesses.
Lying is tiring! Because when one lied once, you have to make up another lie to cover up one’s previous lie. Lying is a vicious cycle! So i don’t believe in lying :(
We’ll be there no matter what.
We know you will be alright.
Whenever U smile, i smile.
So keep smiling, stay positive, be happy!
Smile always! :)
With lots of love,
Yuting.
Lies~ No, I dun believe lies, even white lies. It is not easy to lie and once a person started lying, the lies will continue and continue with no ending, cuz once a lie started, it need to be cover with different ways.
I believe that lies are easy to be crack, even if there is no evidence left behind saying that a person is lying. Still there will be way that one can break a person lies. No matter how difficult it is, is still can be solve.
Living with clear conscience is the BEST!! =)
Living with a smile always is the BEST!! =)
加油！加油！加油！
Elvin,
Keep smiling :)
That’s the best present to give to 坏人.
Hi Elvin, I am not a fan of yours but I just wanna say something to you. Blogs are for you to put your feelings but the danger is there when u post things that are too personal which can be use against you. Nobody is asking u to lie but learn to protect yourself, you dun wanna invite unwanted trouble. Last but not least, I wanna praise you for the improvement in your acting, at last I dun feel painful to watch u act. You and Miss Ou has finally grasp the skill of acting and now watching drama featuring you has become an enjoyment. So do keep up the gd work and do brush up on your communication skill. Dun let your weakness be the target of others attack.
Elvin,
Now that you have let go the baggage, move on and concentrate on your acting. Your acting has definitely improved a lot.
Am sure with your look & smiling personality and improved acting, you will win many fans in time to come.
However, spare a moment to think of how to handle such bullies in future in a manner that is firm, professional and diplomatic. Am sure there are many of such bullies in your work place.
Talents will not shine overnight. They have to be given time & opportunities to polish their skills. Pornsak, Charlyn & Lee Teng are such examples. They have improved tremendously.
it’s juz a misunderstanding? why shld u bother about winning or losing this issue? don’t u think it’s rather childish? in your work, dere’s bouund to be such stuff to happen, esp. with those sharp tongue-ed people…
And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God. – Romans 12:2
Let not worldly things and people affect you.
Keep smiling! =)
The most attractive people are those who are most themselves, not those who try to be some other person, or live up to another person.

They don’t even know what they are doing/saying, so don’t take their words personally. That’s why God says to forgive.
GOGOGO!!!
Well Elvin,
you are right, but I’m glad that you know where you stand & you know what to do & what not to do. Stay honest to yourself.
Second time here, first time commenting, actually hope you will moderate comments, if you do not want to post this, is ok, just want to share with you what I went through too.
I am a libra, I often think about the after effects of what I do, say etc…… I think about what others say or do too…… but guess I am a tad too slow, so my emotions tend to come long after the episode is over. I get angry when I look upon things in my own shoes, but when I try to view from others perpective, I tend to feel better (of course sometimes confused), but still it helps me balance things off
Once I tried to help someone get some part of the work done, but in the end that person feels that I should be helping to do something else which to him is more important than what I was trying to help with, something too minor to him…… I was angry, cause I felt the other event had so many people helping, so I do not think need help, so I am doing this instead which also needs to be settled, I am helping, so why show me attitude! (but in the end I think prehaps that is the way the system work, the way we prioritisize things could be different, so I should not be angry over the event, just maybe his too harsh attitude?)
Then another time, Miss A asked me why I was not angry just now over something Miss B had said ( A comment Miss B had made in front of many people, which indirectly is saying that I am not doing my job as well as Miss B), I asked Miss A: huh got meh? Then Miss A explained in depth to me what Miss B had indirectly meant. I said: oh I felt that something was going on, I was a bit irritated, but prehaps it did not mean anything……
(Maybe Ms B did not meant it intentionally? Cause I myself did not really felt angry or a need to defend, only Ms B felt it was insulting?—- different perspective?)
Recently I keep thinking of what others could have misinterpret what I had intented to say etc……. Until my friend said aiyo why do you want to keep getting yourself angry or worried over things which is simple but got complicated by yourself, what is past is past! Then another told me: Bully others or be bullied!
Have you watch a Hong Kong show 宫心计? There is a pharse inside which states: 存好心、说好话、做好事, I think it is something everyone should think through?
Cause after reading your blog and his, I think probably it is just a misunderstanding? sometimes, we do think too much over what we say or sometimes what others say, what you think is important or horrible, to others it could be the opposite? So prehaps you should think less of what others say, or keep it positive, always think the best of others, and you could be happier? Although in the end, you might say but when I do that others bully me! But I really think you are a very kind person, so sometimes kind pp do get bullied, but in life if you really want to be “kind”, you will not mind that?
I am surely not going to follow my friend pharse of “be a bully or get bullied!” to protect myself, cause I still believe if we think positvely, be kind, others will sooner or later treat you that way or the way you want to be treated?. Maybe if you really do not trust or like that person, you can don trust him or like him, but still be nice? Cause if you are not, then it becomes u are the bad guy?
PS:
Somehow I think voicing your opinion to that person could be really a more direct way than “exposing” that person here? Cause I think you are a kind person, so 存好心、说好话、做好事, voicing your opinion here is like spreading the news or saying bad things about the person in front of the whole world! It implicates things, and somehow pp might guard against you more, not just him but others too (in a negative way) and I do not think you deserve that, cause I somehow feel you are good soul.
Anyway hope my nonsense did not bored you. If it sounds unreasonable to you, sorry, but still do not get angry

谎言只是会欺骗自己,也暂时欺骗别人,终有一天会识破, 把自己该尽的本分做完就行了, 加油! elvin
YOU ARE RIGHT…….dun scare old man !!!We all support u !!!JIA YOU
Hi Elvin,
Do not be affected by these obstacles or some nonsensical MICs.
We are all here to support you.
=)
elvin, no matter what happens, there are many many many people who believe in you and support you all the way.
i am one of them =)
jun xiong, jia you!
Elvin, in life we cannot expect everyone to be good to us. That’s why we have friends and non-friends (don’t wanna use ‘enemies’). As long as you’ve identified who are your friends, just stay with them and ignore the non-friends.
Not everyone in your industry dares to speak their minds, so I really salute you for this. Be bold, be strong but more importantly be true to yourself and not be a puppet. I’m sure you have gained a lot of people’s respect even if they don’t voice it out.
Hi, info for the mount kinabalu climb sent to ur yahoo acct. If schedule does not permit, it is ok, there will be chance. May the force be with you! Need not publish this comment =)
Hi,
Just wanted to thank you for your words of encouragement. really appreciate it. Thanks!
“Be wary of the truth. I’m not asking you to speak it, or write it, for there are times when it is dangerous or impossible to do those things. The truth has a great capacity to offend and injure, and you will find that the closer you are to someone, the more care you must take to disguise or even conceal the truth. Often, there is great virtue in being evasive, or equivocating. Any child can blurt out the truth, without thought to the consequences. It takes great maturity to appreciate the value of silence.” – By Adrian Tan, the author of the Teenage Textbook
Hey, for every one person who doubts/criticizes you, there may be ten others who believe in you & clearly see your stand. ;>
in fact, i felt that your view on the issue in the latest i-weekly was well-said, very real as well.
Truth be told, before you admitted in the article, I could already tell that you chose to ‘act blur’ as a form of response to the continuous arrowing by certain artists in the industry in some situations. This shows that you were trying your best to show some respect to them, be it whether they are a ‘senior’, ‘junior’ or of the same level.
Keep your bullet-vest on & be ever-ready to face all those ‘shooters’ out there. Do what you deem right, & the rest, is up to the public to judge. :)
Thr is nth wrong to ‘follow the rules’ at the end of the day, so as to think in terms of the bigger picture, but rmbr, never lose yourself & the beliefs that you’ve held onto all these while..
All ze best, & all the way! ;>
Lies is to cover what we do not what people to know, it doesn’t link with whether conscience is clear or not because only oneself knows it best. What others wants to say, its way out of control. Just be your true self and one day the truth will come to light. Take care.
dont know what to say but sound like you understand what it is. yes. never live your life in someones hand. but love lets you be there without you knowing. but if your in good hand, a good love will not let you feel you are. as even your spirit will grow well in his/her loving hands. everyone lies.
(sometime being honest, seeing truth, are uglier than lies. don’t you agree?)

i’ll remember his words and always keep a smile in my heart. =)
hello!
I know it’s easier said than done. Don’t keep everything within yourself yeah? It’s very unhealthy. ): I’m glad that you’re at least expressing all your thoughts on your blog, giving us the opportunity to lend our ears to you. (: The media is insane, so sometimes there are things that you can’t say on the blog. But then again, I hope that you can let it all out, at least to someone whom you can trust. When life gives you lemons, make lemonade! Yeah, that’s the spirit, keep smiling! Not only on your face, but in your heart too! You can do it (:
I’ve juz finished watching the *da bin xiao jiang* hosted by Guo Liang. You were 1 of the 3 artiste participants. I must say his attitude towards you was very childish. After seeing such behaviour from him, I’m very convinced he is capable of being a “bad guy” rather for it to be a misunderstanding. =)
