how old is srhwng turning on the 19th of May, 2010? (1 bonus mark)
According to the official information birthday published by Sarah Wong on Facebook indicates her birthday is on the 19th of May [1]. However, no further information is given on her actual birth year. An recent event hosted by Sarah Wong titled the twenty-first of sarah ♥ had invited over 150 guests with further invitations extended to "Partners/lovers/special friend" of the original 150 guests [2]. According to the information provided on the description of the twenty-first of sarah ♥ event had indicated she invited her guests to celebrate "the momentous occasion that is my twenty-first birthday" on Saturday, 1st of May 2010. Further photo evidence collected by Dr. Catherine Cheah [3], a well respected optometrist, on the day of the aforementioned event suggest it was indeed Sarah Wong's 21st birthday [4] and not a public ploy to hoax her 150 guests. Thus, this concludes Sarah Wong had celebrated her 21st birthday on the 1st of May and will have another birthday on the 19th of May to celebrate her 22nd birthday.

The Objects
Can the things we love, love us back just the same?
Glasses (David Choi – davidchoimusic.com) – The glasses represent sight. In a relationship, there are times when our one desire is to share with the other person. We hope to offer a new perspective. To learn and grow from each other in that way. To show the world. Unfortunately, nothing stays clear forever. Many things can blind us: jealousy, doubt, overthinking, and ironically, comfort.
Telephone (Bobby Choy – bigphonymusic.com) – The phone represents hearing. Relationships can’t exist without listening and communication. Sometimes, circumstances prevent people from communicating face to face. That distance greatly effects them. We hear about experiences when what we really want is to live them. Words can only go so far. The phone is interesting because it is constantly eavesdropping on our talks. What would that feel like? To always be talked to but never the subject of conversation. It must hurt to be so unknowingly ignored.
Umbrella (AJ Rafael – myspace.com/ajrafael) – The umbrella represents touch. The very simple idea of being close enough to touch someone. Physical contact. To be able to hold, cover, protect. These are basic parts of a relationship we hope to fulfill. Essentially an umbrella reflects occasional necessity. But who would want that? To feel needed when it’s only convenient.
Scarf (Paul Dateh – pauldateh.com) – The scarf represents smell. The intimacy of knowing someones scent is very special. It’s a privelege that isn’t easily shared and is often overlooked. It may sound ridiculous, but who are the people you can identifty with smell? Most likely those that you are very close with. People you have known for more than awhile. Also, scents can fade. Physical contact carries and transfers a scent but when that contact disappears, the scent is no longer.
Cup (Chris Dinh) – The cup represents taste. More specifically, the cup represents a kiss. And a kiss is the most universal symbol of love and affection. The fact that it describes a first kiss is even more significant. A first kiss is innocent and naive. We cherish it as though it will last forever. But when the cup is broken, the kiss is no longer possible– just like a relationship.
A pair of glasses that goes blind. A phone that resorts to eavesdropping. An umbrella that longs to be held. A scarf that treasures scent. A cup that wants to be kissed. These are the ways I tried to personify the objects to show they fell in and out of love. Between the five, viewers should be able to relate to different dimensions and roles of a relationship. Whether it’s budding in the early stages, the challenge of long distance, slowly fading feelings, or losing out to someone else.

I've been waiting for this short by wongfuproductions to come out for the past year, since they posted the trailer.. that long ago. Which is fitting I guess.. because I wouldn't have truly understood the message behind the short until now.
In the past six months, I've learnt a lot. I've learnt that it's not all about me.. the meaning of compromise.. or selflessness and of the importance of trust. Relationships come and go.. and soon it becomes difficult to differentiate what's real and what's not. Feelings fade.. the euphoria of a new relationship eventually wanes into mediocrity and stagnation.
What makes it real is how willing you are to make it work. It's the effort, the mutual resolution.. and the respect for one another to keep it going. But most importantly, its the simple moments that remind you of why you fell in the first place.
