The One about AFA 2009...

Another event that i was not about tomiss out was of course Anime Fest Asia 2009. This time it was slightly different some said for the better some said for the worse but nevertheless i did enjoy myself at the event. Although i must say i did had a tad more fun the previous year (Unlike some others who expected the heavens just because they are a paying customer... reality check assholes, WE ALL ARE.)

Managed to reach the place in time along with Javern to catch the Cosplay competition. This time there were actually representatives from all different parts of the world involved in this. The 'Gundam guy' took part as well and as expected won the competition. Congratz to him but frankly speaking i was kind of hoping that for once it was someone else who won the competition.

I personally liked the 'Witchblade Girls' who reenacted an entire anime scene of the above mentioned cartoon. Celebrity cosplayer Kaname was one of the guest judges for the event and it was cool to see him in his different Garbs.

I didnt manage to get the concert tickets for this year for the I love Anisong showcase but imagine my thrill when Shoko Nakagawa made a guest appearance for a meet and greet prior to the concert. Managed to take a quick snap of her just as she was about to leave.

Iris joined us slightly later and was keeping a lookout for her toys and stuff. Left the event a happy person but not bfore grabbing a Ichirou Mizuki Tshirt for Bro!

The one about Kronenberg 1664 Blanc Launch..

A Belated post since last year!! But Nevertheless i would like to take this opportunity to thank Javern for the invite to this awesome event. Also special thanks to Jerome for having us there.

The interesting thing about this event was that i have aready beed a fan of the Kronenberg 1664 Blanc Beer ever since i got to try it at Dbl O, as such this was probably just an excuse for me to drink myself silly at the event.

It was also an awesome event to say the least as this was also in conjunction with Lush99.5 as well as the showcasing of Agnes b's new series of products. There was even a lucky draw where a lucky winner would walk away with some limited edition products by Agnes b!

And of course lots of familiar faces to look out for there as well. Lavina was hosting the event and Chris was on the console keeping the mood alive. Dawn and Amy was working at the event too! Not to mention also managed to say hi to Adlina, Yanie, Silver and the others as well.

Drinking on an empty stomach is a terrible idea though as i left quicky with the rest to Maccers to grab a quick bite. It was cool to recieve a nice goodie bagwith cufflinks and also that awesome caricature of myself too! Haha.... Till the next time... heres a glimpse of cartoon me!

The one about Halloween 2009....

Its Halloween once again! Really amazed that how fast time flies as it seems like it has just been a while ago when i and a few other friends were racking our brains on what to go as for last year. That of course concluded in me becoming a Mad Scientist as well as assisting Javerns make-up as the Joker from the Batman franchise.


This year we decided to go much more simpler.... well, in some aspects at least. Instead of doing a manual bar hop, we decided to join the Dbl O party bus that brought us to a group of many different pubs! It was a pity that due to heavy rain, we were unable to go on to the open ait Hippo bus. But no matter! It was nonetheless just as fun as everyone was dressed to the occasion this year!


Came across the idea of this years costume when i was browsing on the net by chance. Was checking out costumes on the web when i saw a picture of Billy the puppet from the Saw movie series. Tried very hard to purchase it but it was not easy to find! So i ended up making my halloween costume from scratch this year. Is it any good? Well i guess thats for you to judge and not me.

Cash and the rest of the gang was awesomely dressed as usual coming as a group of school boys and girls from hell! Judy was seriously creepy to say the least! but we had fun helping to distribute lollipops to people as well as posing for pictures as well. Definately emmersed into the trick or treating spirit hopping from places like Balaclava all the way to the Hard rock cafe as well as Clarke Quay terrorizing the crowd.

Jerraine and Alex joined us during the later part of the evening too! Ys! We found each other!!! Cant wait for Halloween 2010!

The one about my gf's an agent.....

Just caught the Top Selling movie ' My Girlfriend is an Agent' and thought i might as well do a little review for it. Having being a fan of Korean pop culture, I always found it rather amazing how Korean movies managed to match up to the standards of HongKong movies in recent years and even Hollywood is some cases. This movie is of no exception. The gist of the story is as follows.

The Lead actress Soo-ji is a government agent disguised as a travel agent who can’t reveal her career to her boyfriend Jae-joon. Unable to cope with her lies, her boyfriend breaks up with her and leaves without notice. Three years later, while chasing an industrial spy in disguise as a cleaning lady, she happens to run into Jae-joon. He is now a international accountant, or is he?

Somewhat this movie really reminds me of 'Mr & Mrs Smith' complete with all the thrills and spills and also with a more lighthearted feel due to all the comedic elements included in this movie. True, the plot is somewhat predictable but you weren't exactly expecting an international thriller full of plots and twists now ya?

To conclude, I would say it is a movie definately worth watching especially if you are looking for a good laugh during this rainy season. And Oh Yeah...... just to brag a bit, I managed to catch the lead actor and actress Kang Ji Hwan & Kim Ha Neul during their promo stint at the Heeren too! Big Whoop!

The one about Pagebreak.......

As many who frequent Dbl O or PRB would have already know, Pagebreak is one of the most well loved resident bands performing there and as fate would have it i was graciously invited to their 2nd anniversary performing at PRB!

This time however, the event was proudly sponsored by Carlsberg and Converse as well. The combination of beer, great music , great company and other goodies from Converse definately made it an absolute blast. There was of course a mini display showcase of some of the limited edition converse products in the small boutique just outside Dbl O..... Really tempting!!!! but way out of my budget... HAHAHA.....

The Dbl O party crew was of course there too entertaining everyone ith their smooth dance moves and of course taking pictures for everyone. Special thanks to Cash, Shark, Dawn and Amy for ensuring the party levels were kept way up high!

Overall i had lots of fun! but i fell down at one point la..... embarassing story to be told another day... lol

The One about Oktoberfest 2009.....

Was asked by Lydia earlier during the week on whether i would be keen to go for Oktoberfest this year proudly organised by Erdinger & Timbre Mobile located at East Coast Park. Even though i was currently on a diet (and Savings) plan, the temptation for cheap beer and good food was simply too great! So decided to go for the 'Eat now, Think later' mentality.

When we reached i realised that everyone else must have had the exact idea too as it was pcked with people! Thank god for the table reservation made were we able to secure a place. Bumped into quite a number of friends that i havent met in quite a while (Bernie, Charlene, Philbert thats you!). There was also a performance by Swiss funk band Starch and with that in place, The Circle of enjoyment is once again complete! (Good food, Drinks, Music ,Company)

Lynn, Jerms and Beckie were around too as we helped ourselves to the beer, pizza, wings and sausages. In fact we may have even ordered a little too much as there were plenty of leftovers! But seriously, food was awesome la... i was just too stuffed to finish them all.

As usual, the event was also filled with cute female service staff dressed as German Beer maids complete with the pigtails. I guess i must have a little to much to drink coz at one point i could have sworn that i slammed my beer mug on the table and called out 'MORE ALE WENCH!' oops..... not the most clever of ideas....

Lyd's chef friend joined us after that too... Haha... didnt manage to help us finish the food though coz he felt it was too overcooked.... lol... Till then!

The one about Casse's Wedding & SQ's birthday...

Was invited by Qin to celebrate her birthday at her workplace in Clarke Quay. Javern and I was rather early as we spent the morning at Casse & Benny's Wedding. didnt get to take much pictures as there was already quite a few professional photographers there (My lil old camera looks like a toy compared to theirs) Saw quite a number of familar faces though (Hi Charlotte, Sharon, Elaine...etc) but most of them were pretty busy doing their job as jie meis la.

Letf slightly earlier than planned as Jav and i both had to make our way to Clarke Quay for Qins birthday next. Somehow we managed to reach rather early and had some extra time to chill. It wasnt long before the rest all arrived and we made our way slowly for dinner and thereafter for Drinks.

It was a pretty relaxing evening with us playing games such as dice and darts (Lynn is suprisingly good for a beginner). Got the birthday girl a cake but she ended up feeding the cake to everyone else....*#$%$^%$....... But I guess we all got our revenge when she was loaded with a few 151s in the end! 1st one courtesy of me!

So Here it is.... Happy Birthday Qin! Hope you had a great one =)
