Bubble Fever

When Bubble meets children,
it means cuteness overdose!

He is awesome with children.
He doesn't bark, jumps, runs around but just sit there tamely and waits for children to come stroke him.



Look at how cuddly he is in my arms.
Do you want to hug him too?!

I've aready standby his new year clothes. Have you gotten yours for your doggie? It's on sale now!
He will give me his trademark oogly-bear look whenever he's waiting for his meals.
Bubble can sleep in any position, direction, anywhere.
He is actually really 'pong'. look at his actual size when he showers!
He loves his walks, all the time.
But he has to stay in his cage now due to Revolution. It is a flea + ticks + ear mites + roundworms + heartworms prevention medication he has to appply monthly; Strongly recommended by petshop owners and friends who owns dogs.





Sorry you have to be locked up for 3days Bubble.
Mummy Loves you all the same!

Donnie Yen & a pail full of screams

Caution: This will be an entry full of screams; because of Donnie Yen.

When I was a little girl, and I mean too young to even reach the TV power-on button, my dad would buy kungfu VCDs and watched them at home alone. Over the years, I became his most dedicated TV-companion, watching and sharing my views of the movie characters-ignorantly-as if I know a lot about kungfu. Since then, I had loved Chinese Martial Arts Shows- be it movies or dramas.

"Papi, the bad guy is going to through that door and 警察哥哥(Brother Police) is going to kick him right in his face...Yes! WOhooo...Good ah! Kick him! Be careful!" I cheered on.

My very first impression of Donnie Yen is he acting as a handsome policeman. However, I only knew him as "警察哥哥". My dad will laugh at me-a little girl swearing like a boy watching wrestling. In his roles, Donnie Yen loves to rub his thumb lightly against his lower lips, all the time. Subsequently as I grew older, Even in other hongkong movies:as a fighter, policeman etc, i came to realize this was his trademark.

*Scream*

SCREAM!!!

This is it- Ip Man.

Photo taken from: http://www.cinemaisdope.com/news/films/ipman/ip_man_2.png

That was then that I can finally remember his name vividly-Donnie Yen. The character, Ip Man, has somehow enhances his personality; It is like Donnie Yen is Ip Man himself.

Note:He has lost his trademark by now; a major breakthrough I figured.

Unlike any typical martial arts movie, Donnie Yen has not once 'flash' himself half-naked in any of hsi Ip Man movies. (So nope, it wasn't his 8pacs perfect-shaped body figure that attracted me)

Fully-clothed, his swift and fast moves, his modesty with being a hero, the principles which he follows with a pinch of humour; morally upright and inspiring to many who have seen Ip Man. A 100% fatherly-figure(which I had lost that someone some years back) and a dedicated martial-arts lover. My salutes to you.

*SCREAM*

Ip Man was so real(he is real but i meant in the movies) that I ever blogged about this: If 'back then' was really that exciting and heroic, give me a chance to live in the past so that I can experience myself.

Not only had Donnie Yen carved out such a perfect impression for me, he reminds me of my childhood days spent with my Dad, whom I love so much. Reminiscing the 90s where I will sit in my father' lap, peeking from between his fingers trying to watch the good guy finally upbringing justice to the world...

Donnie Yen is going to do that again.

Starring in an upcoming movie, The Legend Of The Fist: The Return Of Chen Zhen, he is back as a masked pariotic hero, tangle with those Imperialist bastards. Watch his moves!



Chen Zhen is a fictional Chinese Kungfu hero created by a hong kong writer, Ni Kuang. The character first appeared in the 1972 martial arts film Fist of Fury, which starred Bruce Lee. Read more about Chen Zhen on Wikipedia

I am ecstatic!

23rd September 2010- a movie NOT to be missed!

My question is,
how is Ip Man going to transform into Chen Zhen overnight?!

I can't wait until 23rd September 2010 to know the answer.
I have to have those movie premiere tickets!!!

The Shanghainese setting-perfect classy and elegant.
The fear of getting killed while walking on the street that shutters the citizens;
A place lavished with the best yet filled with the darkest secrets.
The patriotic hero which they look up upon to save their precious lives.

*Screammmm!!!*

警察哥哥, may i give you a big hug if I get to see you in person, together with a photograph and an autograph?!

*scream even as I am thinking about it*
Oh god, I swear I will faint containing that much excitement.

Let's Start The Ball Rolling, 98C!

This is unlike any other meal.

The happy meal makes one plain joyful eating it.
I am one of those people.
Who says a 24 year old can't eat a Mcdonald's Happy Meal with a toy?


I just did; period.

++++++++++++

Yesterday's short meeting with my Primary Schoolmates-Zaki, Jo and Weiqin- is yet another fulfilling one. Since April 2010, we've been working on a mega reunion this coming November 2010.

I can't wait to blog that down!!!



That's Jo, my most abled-assistant event coordinator.
Without him, I'm handicapped.
He's always there for alternatives solutions;
definitely my brain when it's not functioning.
He'll think of the impossibles, the hidden risks, the harshest obstacles we'll face, and to give us a good laugh when we needed one.

By coincidence, we saw another primary schoolmate of ours-Wee Hong, and invited him to the event as well. He's the guy holding a tray standing in the background. At first when we named names of our previous schoolmates, Wee Hong told us he could remember neither of them. He was skeptical about coming for the event.

But when he saw WeiQin(who came later), he yelled his nickname- Monkey- from afar. That was when we asked again if he'll come for the event. He said with a smile,"Can lar. Can see all these old friends of mine. Need to pay money buy tickets also nevermind."

See.

It will be different when you have really met them, your ex schoolmates.
You will be amazed how much everyone of us has grown up; and how differently or the same. Indulge in those nostalgic moments of your primary school life here, and only here, at the Bpps'98 Mega Reunion.

I can't wait to blog that down!
I don't care, I just want to say it again

On the left is Zaki, my most capable Programme Planner. A perfectionist, he can write the best proposals, visualise the most complicated event and draft out complex work flow diagrams!

On the right of the picture, that's Weiqin, our event chief designer. He is ready to design our event poster and banners, taking down all the necessary information. Kindhearted and soft spoken, he is modest of his achievements and life.

Carnival, Live Band, Bpps Idol, Recess, Photography- SHIOK!

Members of the Nine-Eight Committee are united and working day and night for this event. We all want it to be successful and memorable for our schoolmates. So, if you're a BPPS schoolmate of ourselves in the year 1998, come for the Mega Reunion!

We would like to see you in person!!!

I know you can't wait to see the result of my photoshoot.
There's a cliche that says 'save the best for the last'!
Anyway for one, i haven't gotten the photos yet.
Two, I need OMY to publish it on their column first before I can.



I strongly believe that after this photoshoot entry, you'll ALL be tempted to be on your way to The Studio to get your own photoshoot; both guys and girls alike. Be awed how a plain Jane like me can somehow look like a supermodel under their meticulous guidance and care!

When thriftiness can still be fun!

It's that time of the month again;
the last week, my poorest week.
But wait, my next 24hours can still be fun!

From 7am onwards.

For the first 6 hours: A visit to Sungei Buloh Nature Reserve.
Find it there at one of Singapore's Last Natural Habitat-the mangrove;
There's plenty of fresh air and wildlife for everyone for the price of only S$1.

Next 4 hours: A visit to the saloon.
Through an assignment for a hair model competition,
I got a $1000 saloon cash voucher;
a free hair cut + hair spa treatment + new colour + wash and blow.
They serve hot tea and little snacks.

I felt like a 4-hour tai tai;on complimentary.




Next 2 hours: At home spending time with my love ones.
Playing and walking my 4-month old puppy, Bubble, requires full concentration and energy. Dog-lovers will agree with what I say: This is great exercise.



Sometimes, my 2 hammies comes out and play along with Bubble.




That's a priceless and full-of-love 2 hours spent.



Next 2.5hours: Watch a local Soccer match.
A 5-min walk to the Stadium.
If you're as lucky as I am, you might get a free Anderson's ice-cream cup.
A great dessert after homemade dinner.

This $5 ticket is all worthwhile.



The last 8 hours: A good night's sleep.
Nothing beats a good night rest.
I am holding on to this pillow bf's mother gave to me.



See, my 24 hour can still be really fun and heart-warming.

What will happen if I have $8000 to spend for 24 hour instead?
I will go for a 24hr ultimate make-over; one that will enhance my external appearance for good. I've already made plans for it: braces, eyebrow emcroidery, facial. Can't help behaving like a vain pot.

How about you?!

OCBC will be giving away $8000 to 3 people with the most creative and interesting ideas on how to spend $8000! The ideas will also be filmed on TV!

This big hooha, is nothing but the upcoming OCBC YES!card challenge.

Spamming

I've been spamming on facebook pleading people to vote for CCBmedia video.
We really hope to win that $8000 to fund our production.
Imagine we could spend on props, a better camera, tripod, some lights and best of all, rent some cool places to film our new production videos! But in order to win that, we need to hit more than 600 votes!

*Heave Of Sigh*

We have decided to do meaningful comedies and to help our local bands film MTVs. These work will be posted on our website, www.ccbmedia.com.

I have been taking lots of naps.
Bubble is learning to sleep next to me quietly in bed.
He is such a darling.
Everywhere he goes,
people wants to carry him.
Except for having to clean up his poo poo,
i love every single thing about him.

I want a makeover.
I realize 3things all celebrities have:
Healthy and smooth hair,
a set of white and straight teeth and
really healthy complexion.

I'll work on it.

THANK YOU!

All Aboard!

I had a 'Heaven-Of-A-Time' on board this Magic Cola Bus!
The coca cola theme song was play on repetition now it's stuck in my head for good.
Tiffany played a really good host- the happiness crew of Coca Cola.
Make a guess what material is the Cola T-shirt made from?

You'll never guessed it, It's made of recycled COCA COLA BOTTLES!

Goh Wei Jie, the 12 year old torchbearer who ran 12km holding the YOG torch. The moment this young, promising boy ran into the YOG HQ passed me, I was in tears of pride. You know what? He had a whole school of supporters backing him up. And they all ran after him chanting at the top of their voices," Go Wei Jie Go, Go Wei Jie Go!'

The weather was sorching HOT. And so were our YOG spirit!

These torchbearers came well-prepared.

Yongwei claims that he's cold and felt like putting on his jacket. I wonder if my eyes were playing tricks on me when I spotted beads of perspiration accumulating under his chin... On the other hand, Silver Jie finally came wearing leggings and a jacket.

2.45pm: Everyone got ready to board the Red Bus.

Look how ecstatic we were! Or, I was.

We immediately did all the necessary preparations from chopping seats,

QC our goodies: poncho, cap, lanyard, vuvuzela, clappers, a bottle of coke etc.Not to forget my handy-dandy portable fan.
We got to the extent of making sure our Vuvuzelas are working fine,
Joyce (below) made sure those incoming tree branches would mind their business and stop poking their 'noses' into the bus.

And this is how it looks like from inside the Cola Bus.
From Kay Siang Rd, to Holland Rd, Napier Rd, Tanglin Rd, Orchard, City Hall, Suntec, Esplanade, Fullerton Hotel, Merlion Park etc. We kept waving non-stop at onlookers,strangers or not, and they undoubtfully waved back at us. As we cheered on, the torchbearers got down from the bus in front of us to take their places for the incoming torch relay.

Seeing the cola bus meant that a few hundred meters behind, torchbearers were running, passing the YOG flame from one hand to the other. We were extremely welcomed. In fact, the anticipating crowd were escalated to see us coming!

I blurted out to Tiffany that I would like to help give out goodies to the public. Moments later, I was jumping out from the moving bus and giving them out! YOu think it's easy, wait until you try it on your own. I almost lost my balance a few times as i was alighting and boarding the moving bus. But all thanks to teamwork, I succeeded my mission: to give out all the coca paper fans and vuvuzelas.

Here's how you do it:

In the bus, someone appoints 5-7 volunteers to 'jump off' the bus equip with goodies. On 'go', we jump out in an orderly manner and we are not supposed to stop running. We had to keep ahead of our bus, way ahead. When there is a junction, we must stop. If the bus is too far away, we had to run back to it. If the long blowing of a vuvuzela sounds, it's the call for us to run back, regardless of.

There will be a 'sheepdog' guarding us(the sheep). He will run always be at the last, shouting for us to keep in, picking our dropped goodies for us, as well as to make sure no one gets left behind.

I got pulled into the crowd once. Someone wants the vuvuzela and wouldn't let go of me. He was tugging at my sleeve, demanding for the item. I let go of the rest of my vuvuzelas and ran back to the bus without turning back.

Here's those who had liven up my day on the bus:

And there's the NYP student volunteers on board the bus: Yihui, Tjoandi, Josephine and Izzac.

Thank you Coca Cola! And most of all, HP-my CCB
