I won an Ipod Shuffle!!

I still can't believe that I won an Ipod Shuffle!! This is the first time I actually won anything in a lucky draw. This lucky draw was conducted during my company annual dinner recently at Sunway Lagoon Resort Hotel. The theme for the dinner was "International Gala Spectacular" so we were supposed to dress up in any costume that represents a country...like Statue of Liberty, Geisha, etc... There was even a RM500 prize for the best dressed male and female staff.

Hmm...I actually contemplated dressing up but then again, no lah, too much work, not enough time. The winner for the female category was a staff dressed up as Princess Pei Pei from China, while the male category is ....actually i felt it was abit out of topic but the guy actually dressed as a lady while his wife dressed as a man. Creative idea but abit out of topic. Oh well, he won anyway. Both of them were supposed to dress up like that when they come to work on Monday or they'll forfeit the title...do you think they did?? Actually I didn't think it was serious, so they didnt...haha!

We also had a very impressive Capoiera Dance performance. It is the latest thing to hit the fitness circle. Looks abit like break dancing and combat. Then we grooved to the beat from the Aseana Percussion Band. It was world class standard. And finally we laughed till our tummy ached with stand up singer/comedian Buddy Loren. He was really multi-talented, singing from Hokkien to Arabic songs, doing impersonations from Shah Rukh Khan to Michael Jackson....wow!

Finally we had the grand lucky draw where the grand prize was a 3day 2night ticket for two to Perth, Australia. I only managed to win the Ipod Shuffle....someone else got the Ipod Nano. But I'm happy enough...I was hoping to get a digital camera or an Ipod, and I got at least what I hoped for :) Other prizes given away were like Motorola Razor handphone, aircons, microwaves, pdas, etc. What an exciting time and we finally ended about 1am.

Looking forward to what's in store for next year...

Calendar boy

The long queue snaked along the walkway outside Espanda club and it was only 8pm. At the entrance the organisers were busy giving away doorgifts and free drink coupons. Behind the stage, 30 nervous young men were getting ready for the final round of interview. Inside the club, it was already jam packed with people waiting impatiently for the event to start. There was hardly any standing space left and yet people were pushing their way through to get a better view of the stage while the long queue kept getting longer outside. Finally there were lots of cheering and wolf whistles, the young men were coming out to do the catwalk. Dressed in jeans and body hugging white T-shirt with "I'm A Hunk" printed in front, to show off their muscular bodies, all 30 of them looked liked cover-guy models vying for the title of....New Icon/New Tide's latest 12 Hunks of the Year 2005. In between interviews, there was also a special presentation from our Malaysian Idol, Daniel as we...

PlanetShakers in Malaysia again

Been too busy to go for the Planet Shakers Conference...aiyah, what to do, so many things going on and with Christmas coming. Sometimes I wonder whether we are doing too much. After all God must have a reason for giving us only 24 hours in a day. While we try to accomplish more with the time we've been given, sometimes we wish we have a 48-hour day. Hmm...does it seem surprising that Jesus never rushed anywhere and yet was always on time and accomplished a lot of things?? Anyway, found a sneak preview of what's happening over there...wish I was there. Wish you were there but can't, just click on N ª R r Ø w ª Y ¿ Hey, tonight's the last night if you can make it....

Holidays, Birthdays...and Happy Days!

“Are you getting married?” My colleague asked me as she eyed the book on Decorating for newly weds curiously on my table. I just laughed and shook my head. Apparently I had the itch to redecorate my bedroom so I had been borrowing all the books on interior decorating from the library. I actually didn’t notice the title of the book until I was taken aback by her question. Well since the unfulfilled desire to own my own place is still not within my reach, the best alternative goal within my reach was to redo my bedroom…hence the book on my table. And probably also the creative bug in me is starting to itch having been neglected for too long…doing other boring stuff! So my plan was to get all the inspiration and ideas as much as I could before the DeepaRaya holidays looms near. It’s seldom that we have two major national holiday celebration back to back so when it happens, it’s usually a long break. It also happened that Deepavali was right smack before my birthday too. So with th...
