Malaysian Blogger's Day SHOW
I was contacted by Josh Lim who runs ADVERTLETS to do a show for him on an event sponsored by Advertlets . Advertlets were sponsoring the Malaysian Blogger's Day .
Josh had asked me to extend the invitation to some celebrity bloggers I knew . Well , Christien New and his wife Lavin Seow responded to the invite and graciously graced the event . The event ws also attended by local models from Hypertune like Bridgette whom I met before with Tengku Djan , Andrew Westwood , and many others . To sum it up it was a sucessful event by the organizers . Much credit should be give to Elaine for playing a main role in making this event a sucess . Elaine just got back from Australia and in that time span could organize an event of this magnitude .
I went to the event with my friends Joshua , Choon Hoong , Kong and Manuel from Germany ( the Edward Norton lookalike)..We came in two saparate cars...and one of the cars came a tad too early..
-Choon Hoong and I before the event started , we arrived at 7pm..one of the earliest!..wait, we were the earliest!! Our names were the first in the guest book .
-The rest of the group, (blogger),Manuel,Kong and Josh during the event .
-Me, Andrew Westwood, and Erik Ong fooling around after I entertained them . Erik is a Talent Manager managing Melissa Campbell , while you can see Andrew's face when you pass by a HOTLINK poster anywhere in the mall .
-Erik, Andrew and Me with the infamous `spoon ' pose...Andrew was recording it , hope to have it posted
soon.
-Doing magic to Leng Yein and Nicole from Hypertune , I really din 't expect them to scream so loud when the final prediction was revealed ... people at the event thought I was some sort of humsuplo if they din 't know that I was actually the entertainer there ...
-Leng Yein and Me...this girl is freaking crazy, at the tender age of 22 , she drives the latest Nissan Skyline and is going to open a new mamak of her own in Plaza Prima Setapak KL . This is just so crazy . I'm giving her the benefit of the doubt that she earned it, and I'm freaking impressed . I'm a year younger and it's going to be quite a while till I will be able to open my own mamak yet still get a NEW Skyline ( I can get a 2nd hand , display it on my front porch and let it rot, because I'll never be able to maintain it's costs)
-With Bridgette from Hypertune ...she complained that she appeared too many times in Hypertune the last time I chatted with her ....and yes, she does appear in almost every issue .
-With Natalie and Bridgette... and my cards .
-Performing to Lavin Seow
-With Christien and Lavin
-Performing magic to Jordan and Christien from the NEW community .picture taken from whitetulips00.blogspot.com
There were two types of entertainment provided by the organizers, one being a competition of Nintendo Wii , and the next was my show . I started off my show with a roulette routine . I had a broken bottle put under one of four paper bags , had them mixed and slammed my hand onto 3 of them(the empty bags) , directed by the audience member using their sense of intuition . I also had Josh Lim to volunteer and I can tell you that while I was holding his hand , he was shaking so hard ( Josh , I told you won't get hurt right? ).......I also did a mind reading routine to Brian NG and his reaction was classic ...simply classic..
-Performing a mind reading act with Brian Ng , getting Brian to pick any word he wanted from choices of books .
This is the part where he said ` SHIT! You're freaking me OUT' and looked at me like his brain was just fried after I got alphabets he was trying to send me...
-Brian going back to the crowd as the audience applaudes ...You can see Cedric Ang here from the pic . I've heard alot about Cedric and his site was just hacked . Poor him , his site has now turned into a gay porn site .... Anyway , Cedric was such a friendly person to talk too and he asked me twice ` Can you do magic and vanish my pimples ? '....oh man, I wish I could...hope to see you at other gatherings!

-With the NEW Community setted up by Christien NEW
-With the cast of ENTOURAGE , Malaysian version..., Andrew,ME, Sebastian, Brian and Erik.
-Doing some street magic to Andrew , Cadence and Erik...Erik din 't dare to turn over my prediction...he was like` Ayo, you turn over, you turn over, cannot take it anymore already ' to Cadence ....Cadence, NICE meeting you too!
-One for the photo album , a group picture of almost all who attended ( some went back already)
After the event , my friends and I continued partying at MYSTIQUE in Cineleisure Damansara .
The highlight was when Manu spotted two hot lesbians(well, from our perspective) groping each other on the dance platform ...
-`Yes, those were the two' says KONG ..
What a tired day . Kudos to the organizers for making the Malaysian Bloggers Day a great sucess!..I'm tired , I smell of ciggies and most of all , I can 't wait for the next gathering .
