Together with Asia Pacific Breweries (APB), OMY Blog Club organised a GET YOUR SEXY BACK Bloggers' Party last Friday!!! It was absolutely A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

Get Your Sexy Back (GYSB) is Singapore’s first youth-led programme to encourage responsible drinking among young adults, and to spread the message that while partying is perfectly cool, binge-drinking is not! Binge-drinking is when one drinks alcoholic beverages excessively. Statistics show that nearly 95% of all adults depend on alcohol before the age of 21.

So, if you end up sleeping like this FREQUENTLY in the pub: 200720094466200720094465 *He looks extremely comfortable; which shouldn't be the case.

Or end your day like this in bed all the time--dead-drunk: 172139_10150102048814637_806744636_5999607_1752349_o (Photo taken by: Calvin Timothy)

Then there are some serious health issues which you ought to consider. Binge drinking causes short term issues like Alcohol poisoning and hangovers, to long term health issues like kidney damage, liver disease, brain damage etc.

A group of bloggers headed down to APB last Friday to find out what they have done to encourage us about Responsible Drinking.

Before I reveal the photos, I am so thankful to Janet from OMY for sharing her GYSB photographs with me. I lost ALL my GYSB photographs and I am super depressed! There were some really great shots I took with Ethan(my guest), Calvin Timothy, Yongwei, lots and lots of food...! *Emo one corner drawing circles* I'll be extra careful next time.

Where was I? Oh yes, Get Your Sexy Back Bloggers Party. GYSB - 01

Alfred Tay from APB introduce to us about The GYSB Cheers Challenge. Thank you for being such a wonderful host, Alfred!

I'm not really a gamer; managed to complete only Level 1 even though it's really a simple game. The toasting gets harder as you level up. If you'll like to take a look at the other 4 levels, Ethan’s blog has print screens of them all! *Applause*

Notice a black Heineken watch I am wearing on my wrist? I was given one for trying on special vision goggles and walk on a straight line across the floor. These special goggles will show you how your vision is like when you're low, moderate and really drunk. Look how far I was away from the line instead of walking ALONG it.
