F&N Singapore Dance Delight 2010

Went to watch the Preliminaries of F&N Singapore Dance Delight on 27 March 2010 (Saturday) at Takashimaya Shopping Centre after receiving the invitation from OMY. I was quite surprised to see so many peoples there waiting for the competition to start. I believe most of them are the contestant's supporters.


The competition kick off at 7.30pm sharp and many teams took part to challenge for the best street dancers to represent Singapore at Dance Delight Vol. 17 in Osaka, Japan.



Many contestant teams are excited to showcase their power dance on stage. I would say that there are many skillful and talented dancers in Singapore. I'm so proud to be there to do a blog write-up for OMY last Saturday.


This event not only attracted many youngsters, it also capture the attention of aunties and uncles as well. Saw the picture below? Wow! Even aunties are amazed by the contestant's dances. I personally felt that we should have this type of contest more often as it can bring everybody closer too. (",)


I did a video recording for two team and share with my readers and supporters. Actually for more information on the next round, you can also visit http://www.dancedelight.sg/.

F&N is the presenter for Singapore Dance Delight 2010. Apart from that, they also take care of all the supporters and audiences by serving free soft-drinks at Orchard Road during the competition. Of course myself and rest of my friends also went to get ourself a cup as well. I'm always a fan of F&N drinks anyway. Lol.


Remember them? They are Andy and Ah Wei, members of SOUL from Superband Season 1. Took a picture of them too. They are great dancers and they are there to support this event. SOUL rock!

Movie & Donut

Was suppose to have training today but Boss was down with the runs last minute so we all got to rest at home.

娟姐, Cat 姐 and I decided to pay a last minute visit to Boss as well as to get some food for him. It was meant to be a surprise visit. I hope he was surprised. After he took his dinner and medication, we headed to Causeway Point for a short relaxing night out.

Stopped by Donut Empire and I bought my favourite donuts again. Hehe.


After that we caught How To Train A Dragon. It is an awesome movie. Will do the review some other time!


After movie we headed to the Pasar Malam just beside for a walk. It was the usual stuffs, except we saw this interesting "ride" among the usual rides in the amusement park section. It was so cool to see this in a Pasar Malam. It's a water sport ride. Some boy goes into a deflated plastic and the staff just pumps air into it and inflates it into a ball. The boy in the ball is then helped into the water and he's allowed to play in it for a period of time. I wanted to try but I guess I was overage and maybe also overweight. Maybe Joseph can try next time! Haha!



After that my two sis got me a gift. They always 破费 buy me things. It a jigsaw set of my idol's poster. Which idol? You all guess! :)

Thank you for the wonderful night!

Ala Carte Buffet

Today, Aunty May treated us dinner at Akira Japanese Restaurant. I've always drive pass or just go pass that restaurant and have always wanted to try it out and finally got the chance to today.

It's pretty cool when we stepped in we were ushered to a room or in china they call it the “厢房”, which means we had a room for ourselves. For some reason, we felt important as there are only 4 rooms while the rest of the people eats outside as per normal. Maybe because mummy made reservation. But anyway, my initial feeling was cool and excited.

This is the room. Cool right!

My aunt looking happy after receiving her gift chocolates! (It's not her birthday though)

Sashimi Set
The other random orders




It's ala carte buffet, which means you order anything you want on the menu and they cook it and deliver it to you. Supposedly it's free flow la. So we ordered quite a fair bit of dishes. Some came, some didnt. I had ordered plain rice earlier and it wasnt served. 15 minutes later the waitress walked passed and I told her to get me a bowl of rice and she said ok, but the rice didnt come. It happened for 3 times until I was quite upset already. One bowl of plain rice also take so long to serve. I went out and stood outside the room. I was calling out to every staff who walked passed me and they were "busy" with serving their food and walking around. I said to one of them, "Hello, can you help me with my order?" and she said, “好的,稍后就来。“

So I stood outside the room waiting. Waited for 10 minutes but I was like transparent to everyone. My aunty went out to join me and we were both ignored too. After some time one staff finally noticed and came in to take our orders. Everything happened smoothly after we requested to feedback to the Boss. But anyway the food there was quite nice la. If those thing didnt happen, I'm sure I'd have enjoyed my dinner more. I just hope it's an isolated incident. :)

After dinner I met up with my cousin. He was so emo. So many people in relationship crisis now. I hope everyone is ok. Not ok can find me talk! (",)
