Work, talking on MSN and Facebooking. You know, I have to admit that life has been VERY different since Jayden and I had a fall-out on April 1st. You probably would have noticed that right after that, I haven't been updating frequently as I did.It's weird to hear, and highly patronizing of me, if I were to say that I found absolutely very little reason http://audikhalid.blogspot.com/2009/05/fork-in-road.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8298226.post-6716119132793836370Thu, 21 May 2009 12:20:00 +00002009-05-21T20:42:43.982+08:00FilmmakingMy LifeI've updated the company's news site with my latest stunt job, "De Dana Dan"Click here to see me dressed as a woman.http://audikhalid.blogspot.com/2009/05/filmmaking-de-dana-dan.htmlnoreply@blogger.com (Unknown)0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8298226.post-1436549623376505967Fri, 15 May 2009 17:05:00 +00002009-05-16T01:16:56.963+08:00FilmmakingMy LifeNational ServiceThose were the words uttered by my boss and mentor, Jimmy Low, in the wee hours of the morning yesterday after we wrapped up from my biggest shoot yet.It means a lot to me.
