F&N Singapore Dance Delight 2010



Attended today's Blogger meeting with F&N (FNN) and OMY.sg at SPH. I'm thankful that I've been selected as one of the 6 bloggers to blog about this amazing dance competition called the Singapore Dance Delight! Jeff from F&N and Shou Chen from their PR agency was here to brief us.

I've always imagined what the people at F&N looked like since young. Lol. I thought they will be like the MacDonalds people AKA Ronald MacDonald and gang, since they make drinks that appeal so much to us children (back then la). Haha. My favourite drink have always been their Ice Cream Soda. Just tastes so wonderful. (",)



Ok... Anyway back to earth. Lol. The meeting was quite fun and informal. Got to know more about F&N and the SDD. After that we were all given a goody bag. Inside the bag is a cap and F&N badges, which we were to customise it ourself. It's a limited edition cap since Jeff has only given out 10 of them so far in Singapore. Hehe. Anyway he also said that after today, we are also considered as the Ambassadors of F&N!

Also in the bag is a beautiful and sleek HTC Touch 2 handphone, which is given, (yes given to us to keep after the campaign) to us to assist us in blogging. Using it to take pictures and videos during the campaign.

Presenting to you: The lucky 6 bloggers! Arent we cool? (",)

Anyway..... The ultimate prize for the best blog is a trip to Japan to watch the Japan Dance Delight at Osaka!!!! Woo! I really hope I can win. Who wouldnt? Hahaha.

Alright. Now time for some information on the SDD.

History
Dance Delight is created by Mitsuhiro Harada a.k.a Machine.

Machine is the leader of the legendary break dance team ‘Angel Dust Breakers’ in Japan. In 1992, he founded the street dance promotion company ‘Adhip’ and started ‘Osaka Dance Delight’ which created a new wave of street dance culture from Osaka and the origin of all dance delight competitions. In 1994, the first nation wide street dance competition in Japan took place, this was the 1st ‘Japan Dance Delight’.

After 16 years, Japan Dance Delight has become one of the biggest international street dance competition, participating cities/countries include Paris (France), New York (United States), Taipei (Taiwan), Shanghai (China), Seoul (South Korea) and Singapore. The finals in Japan would attract audiences of up to 10,000 and the entire series of regional and cities level dance delight would attract thousands of contestants.

F&N's aim is to bring street dancing to life in Singapore, through Singapore Dance Delight. There will also be a series of exciting and interesting campaigns, roadshows and online promos and contests which I will be also sharing with all of you soon!

Singapore Dance Delight Finals will be held on the 18th April 2010. Get your Finals tickets exclusively at O School!

From 27th Mar – 11th April,

From 12th April onwards,

Made a visit to F&N's Facebook Fan Page and website and saw their 3 SDD ambassadors, Wu Jia Hui, Nat Ho and Serene Kong. They even had a theme song for this competition. Haha. I hope one day I'll join them to be the 4th ambassador too. I thought I can suggest using my song "I'm In Love With It" to them since it's also a fast-tempo song and I think the lyrics fits well too. (",)

Unidentified Worry

Male singers avoid Jay Chou's May album release - I saw this and I was like, whoa..... This is the true blue King of Pop Of Asia. I think he's worthy of being called the Michael Jackson of Asia.


View Full Article HERE.

Received an email from a friend and it seems now there's a facebook group opened for this person related to it. The mail says:
Hi guys,
I would really appreciate your prayers for a friend of mine (canoeing junior, 21yrs old), who is in comatose right now.

He met with an accident on jetski in Phuket, and his right brain is injured/damaged. Part of his left brain is injured too. His brain is also shifted by 2cm, which is rather serious. This fri/sat/sun is the critical period, in seeing whether he cn pull thru.
Medically-speaking, chances of recovery is rather slim, but i Believe in our God who is a God of miracles.

So please, join me to pray for him? That he can pull through this weekend, and healing for the brain tissues.

-Pray also for his mother (who has to handle all the finances, coming not from a well-to-do family), look after him day/night and to hold the family together.
-Pray also for his father, who is in Phuket settling the case with the police right now, but who doesnt have very good health either esp after the traumatizing news of his son's accident.
-Pray also for his only sister, who is now tirelessly going around hunting for good neurosurgeons.
-Pray for Hope, Peace, and Healing for YingJie (my friend.)

I really appreciate your prayers a lot, and I believe God hears.
I know many of you may not know him, but I really cant think of any any any other possible ways to help, other than being there physically to comfort his family, which is to rally people in prayer for him. This is also what his mother requested, to rally as many people as possible on the internet and anywhere possible to pray for him.

To those who know him: His mother also strongly requests us to go visit him and talk to him frequently as he can indicate certain responses at times.

-End Of Mail-

As of now, I heard that he has caught an infection and the doc and nurses said that there's "not much hope" and has suggested pulling off the life-support system. His mum is devastated. Though I dont know him, and have never seen him before, I feel really sad for him and his family. I'm also a 21 year old, I understand the pain. Therefore I hope everyone can join me in praying for him. Hope we receive some good news.

Earthquake AGAIN in Sumatra this time. Sigh. So many disasters and sad things going on in the world.

I dont know why, these few days I seem to be undergoing some weird suppressing feeling. I just feel very stressed up suddenly and I would get very bothered and worried for nothing. I dont know if it's due to work, or school or any other things, but the feeling is getting stronger each day. I dont know what happened to me, I just know I'm not happy. Sigh. Just hope things will work out fine.

Attending blogger meeting tomorrow. Quite excited about it. (",)

爱心午餐

Today halfway through my lecture I received a surprise sms from Cat 姐 saying that she and 娟姐 are on their way here. I was quite shock because today is quite a packed day and I suddenly my schedule was thrown into disequilibrium. But nevertheless, I met up with them for a short while and they brought me lunch. It was personally cooked by 娟姐 and supervised by Cat 姐. My facebook friend and also their close friend Pauline 姐 came along too. Anyway next time want come must let me know in advanced just in case I really cannot make it. I dont want anybody to make a wasted trip down to see me then end up I cant meet. But nevertheless, it was very sweet of them to have brought me lunch la. So I accompanied them for awhile while eating the 爱心午餐 prepared by the 3 of them the entire morning.

Noodles cooked by 娟姐. Looks delicious right? Like professionally done. Haha.

Me before eating. Slurp Slurp!

The 3 sweet ladies!

娟姐 was so funny. She brought 2 bowls for me as she scared I have not enough to eat. But in the end I was so full I only managed to finish one bowl. Lol. Anyway thanks for the lovely lunch!

After school was tuition again and then I headed down to Boss's place for a gathering. Serena brought us Durian Puff from Goodwood Park Hotel. Good stuff. I had 2 because I was pretty full liao. Could have had more otherwise. Haha. I love durian. I mean the original fruit by itself. Especially 猫山王 durian all the better! Anyway the puff was delicious la. Thanks Serena.

Long day today. These few days like that. I guess this whole month will be like that. I hope I do get enough rest each day. Cant wait for exams to be over, but the preparation is tough. Thank you everyone for the encouragement and well wishes! They keep me going and make me strong. So please dont stop!

Anyway, do visit www.hellofm.weebly.com to leave me a tag and support the online radio! Cheers everyone! (",)
