NuYou Men We Love 2009 - Finals

NuYou Magazine Men We Love 2009 is finally over. I reached slightly late for the rehearsals due to school commitments. Anyway I was pretty worried I might flop the whole thing because I was nursing a very bad and heavy flu. I almost felt like giving up. In between the rest periods, I took the chance to catch some power nap, but things didnt get any better. Luckily at night, I mastered enough strength to pull through everything. I guess noone knew I was unwell. (",)

Upon meeting the contestants, I introduced myself. At first I thought was quite hard to get along because all of them are older than me by at least 4 years. But they were very friendly too and I quickly blended in with them. We went through the first round of rehearsal, or rather the first round for me. Lol.

After that I ate my dinner and caught a 15 minute power nap before doing my hair and make up. Soon we got changed and the event was about to start. Everyone was very nervous backstage. But still we all tried to joke to one another to keep the atmosphere as warm as possible. haha. Oh yah, did I mentioned ALL of us changed backstage? Noone bothered heading to the toilet to change because it was quite far and the time constrain was really tight.

Soon the show began. Jun Wei was the Emcee for the day and Kelly Poon 潘嘉丽 was the guest artiste for the night. Finally met Kelly after so long. Had heard of her through Boss and seen her on tv for quite sometime already but we havent got to meet and so today I got the chance to formally introduce each other. She is really cute and friendly. I also heard from Boss that Kelly is very down to earth and hardworking and today I really saw it with my own eyes. She is a great artiste. Her performance was great and her vocals are pretty good. Overall, she did great. Well done Kelly, do keep in touch. :)

I was asked to sing a song during Q&A and I sang Leehom's "你不在". Was pretty worried I couldnt pull it off due to the flu, but I did. After the Q&A session we were all allowed 4 minutes each to go down the stage to get our votes from the public. Thanks to all who had voted for me.


I won the title of Best Hair by Loreal. Quite happy and thank you NuYou Magazine for giving me an opportunity to be part of this event. Thanks the editor from NuYou, Grace for the wonderful experience given to me. Not forgetting all the backstage crew and staffs. Without you guys, Elson won't look so good on stage. (",)



Also thanks all of you for coming down to Zouk to support me. I already uploaded the pictures to my blog photo page and also Facebook.


The famous Zouk toilet. Lol.

A surprise phone call / LG Ice Cream Phone

My whole day today was pretty much packed. Econs assignment deadline is getting nearer. I really hope we can start having some concrete ideas and business plans soon. =\ After school I met Edwin 大哥 and Boss and accompanied them to meeting.

Ever heard of an "Ice Cream" phone? Today I heard about it when I met Raymond from LG. A research online made me understand why will the phone be sold out. It's design is really nice and trendy. I think most young people would like it. And the colour span and range are pretty cool. Like light pink and baby blue. Colours which are not of the usual stereotype.

Here it is:

OK LAME I KNOW! Dont scold me. Lol. This is the actual one.




But baby cannot use. Else will become like this.


OK LAME AGAIN I KNOW! Lol!

Oh yah. I also met a new friend Henry CHC. He's a nice guy, and very humble too. (",)

Anyway after the meeting I went home and we sent Sis off to the airport. Stopped by Chomp Chomp to eat tau huay. My ALL TIME FAVOURITE original egg tau huay, with pearls. haha. I can eat like 100000 bowls without getting sick of it. Ok, exaggeration detected. But you get my point. Not forgetting dinner at Popeye too. Havent had Popeye for more than a year. So it's pretty yummilicious too.



On my way home earlier today I received an sms from an unknown number. At first the person told me that she knew me for more than a decade, since I was 12 years old, and that we used to hang out together after school. She told me that she has been reading my blog but she just refused to tell me who she is. So I decided to ignore her for awhile. Then she called. I picked up and to my surprise, it was my Primary School teacher Mdm Tay! She played a prank on me! Lol.

Mdm Tay is my pri 6 form teacher, my bestest teacher who dotes on me a lot. We lost contact some year ago and I thought I'd lose contact with her forever. But fate doesnt fail us and so she called me out of the blue today. We chatted for more than an hour, talking about old and new stuffs. Those memories and promises (that I still remember). What a wonderful day for me today. I will not forget my promises and your words of wisdom. Thank you Mdm Tay!

Before I end my post, I would like to share this with everyone.

It's not a blank white sheet with a dot. TILT the screen backwards and read off the lines.

Interesting eh? (",)

Tomorrow's another hectic day for me! Good night everybody.
