Photoshoots after photoshoots...

(Blog Update For W/c 24th September 2007)

How does it feel like to be photographed so many times in a week. Not being the photographer but being the one who gets photographed. Some shots are in a group, some are in 2's and most are individual shots. Having to put on make-up by the make-up artists for every single photoshoot, having to have your hair done by the hair stylist... having to ensure that you have top notch clothings for the shoot!

Whoa...that's a whole lot of stuffs and for me...i'm not used to it. I don't really like having to put on make-up on me, styling my hair for like 20 mins, and etc... Its just so not me! But i have to do it anyways...

Being a radio announcer for the biggest broadcasting company in Malaysia that not only has satellite channels for TV but also for radio! Well the station is growing, the media is helping in its growth and our content has improved over time. Well that's a sign of an increasing number of listenership.

The past few months, my life has changed a bit, yep... not so much but now with sponsors coming in sponsoring the show that i'm hosting and all... segments are being sponsored as well. On the other hand, i am being sponsored by a few International companies for haircare and facial, yep..., this i shall talk about it next time but let's go to the photos now!

The shoot was done at NSTP Building @ Bangsar - that's New Straits Times Publishing. Yes, the shoot was for the paper's upcoming editions for Hari Raya. There will be different write-ups for different stations and individual announcers.

Ok this was certainly not suppose to be like this at all! mwahha... Only 5 of us were here today, we have 7 announcers in total!

Abang Jamal with Adi (my co announcer)... just finished make-up'ing and yeap...

(From L-R:) Nor, Ollie and Adi...

On a different day...Was at a photo-studio in Kelana Jaya, for a sponsor photoshoot! Can't tell who is the sponsor as yet but will keep y'all updated!

I was in the dressing room about to go for the shoot...just getting myself ready!!! OMG! am i ready?

This is where i work...

(Blog Update For Today...)

Today Hani (hitz.fm DJ) and I were busy going around and around to all the other studios taking pictures to one another. Yes!!! we're on a picture taking spree as we need photos to update our station website blog with photos of ourselves! So yes...here we are and we did it!!!

Some of the photos below were taken in good conditions, some aren't... hope you like em! Can't put up all the photos as i'm currently quite tired and need to go out meet up with a friend for supper! Here they are... hope you like the studios!!!

By the way - i work as a Producer / Radio Announcer on one of the stations, which is Xfresh FM (under the same group as hitz.fm and MixFM). This means that any promos that the other stations are running, we can jointly take part in the same thing and yea... u know la! :P

The Gardens: It's all about you...

(Blog Update For 26th September 2007)

The Gardens @ MidValley had just opened its doors to the public today. With a pretty much grand official opening act on the night before, The Gardens opens up with a great big bang! It is filled with upmarket boutiques and restaurants. Concept stores are not limited to just fashion but is also opened for F&B outlets such as Baskin Robbins Cafe "BR-Cafe".

Wanna know more about what BR Cafe has to offer? My friend / client invited me to come over try out the new items such as "rockin' yogurt", "Blast" and "Cooler" here at at their latest outlet here in The Gardens.

This is the only BR Cafe found in Malaysia which has a cold stone on the table where it is used to keep the yogurt ice-cream at temperature and it is also used to "fry" - "cook" the ice cream with the selected ingredients. Wanna know more about BR Cafe and The Gardents MidValley - stay tuned to this spot!!!

The BR Cafe crew are always ready to help you out!

Denise who is the Trainee Manager here at BR Cafe, is cooking the ice-cream for you!

This is how it looks like when transferred to your table. Is served in 3 different "jackets" - waffle, cones and etc...

The insides of the Gardens @ MidValley. The design here is superb! For me i believe the design is far much better than Pavilion! With the use of WOOD / WOODEN Material and all!

A quick snap of MidValley City from the outside! Come check it out...

Free Hugs For All...

(Blog Update For 23rd October 2007)

Free Hugs... what is it? what is it for? why? hmmm... alot of people has been asking me that lately. Even more on the day that a group of us were at the Curve to give free hugs to anyone, YES! anyone and everyone... any passerbys no matter people from various different walks of life, background, age, gender and so forth.

Some started raising questions what was this for, or if there's a video camera hidden somewhere. Some even asked if this is a trick or what's really behind it or what's in it for us? Cause they see a bunch of us teens doing this. Oh well - let me tell you straightaway right now! There's no hidden cameras, no hidden tricks / costs. We're doing it to help make a change in people's life's, make a difference, make your day better or happier or just simply try and change your mood for the day - in hoping to make this day a better day for you! To find out more about this and know more... i shall elaborate more later! But for now...

First of all, take a big piece of cardboard, and use a thick marker pen and write "FREE HUGS"...go in a group of friends! Try not to go alone...

Yes, this was what i meant... go in a group of friends - there's 2 of us who are not in the picture me and another friend Ben. Oh well someone has to take the picture right :P (L-R: Jack, Mark, Catherine, Jay. A, Justine and Wendy).

Ok now... just to let you see of the next blog update. Supper with some friends at McD, Well here's Sam and Jonathan! You may have seen Sam on TV!

And now back to normal transmission... Free Hugs For All!!! The lil' one is doing his part here today! Wow... he made it :P Jay...!!!

People of all ages, colors and walks of life... Yes we really do hug you REAL TIGHT!

And here we've found a really nice supporting family consisting of the 2 brothers, 1 sister and mother shopping on a sunday @ the Curve. The mother holding up the signage of "FREE HUGS" at the back and both siblings hugging one another! - See the smiling face of the mother and the siblings? We've certainly made a difference in their life today!

Look at the lady, she's thinkin what's this free hugs all about? Hmm... Aaron, she's checkin' you out!
From all walks of life... we have Christine here and Laurine - both my former classmates back in LimKokWing! Certainly made a difference in their life on this day!

With a couple of friends, we spread the love! Leoniel and Suzanne! Both here this day and gave a cool hug!!!

People of all ages and culture...look at the man's facial expression!

You know you did it! You made a difference in his life! Not only he'll be happy but he'll also talk about it with his friends. Look at his facial expressions! You did it Justine!

Justine did it again... this guy is quite supportive!!!

Here Aaron's hugging Linda...yes they know one another!! hehee... Linda see you at college!

Here by my side...those that money can't buy!

(Blog Update For The Trio Birthday @ Izzi)

What else in life that money can't buy... well the usual answer would be Friendship. Yes... that's one of the most important things in life (apart from God, Family, Water, Air, Food) Well Friendship is a great thing that is part of each and everyone's life that can't be bought. You can offer anyone RM1 million ringgit to be your friend, but is that friendship genuine? You can offer them fame, freebies and all but is it genuine? Nope... friendship is determined you and only yourself - the kind of person you are, and it re-defines a whole lot of thing. Yet again, money can't buy friendship. Therefore on this day i'd like to thank my friends who were there tonight and also to those who couldn't make it that night and to each and everyone of my friends whom i've been spending some time with these past few months / years... thank you for being there with me!

Oops... what am i bla-bla'ing about? Anyways - here's the continuation for the B'day Celebration for Gadiy, Shaun and Me... here at Izzi! Although it was very belated for all 3 of us but hey! It was a celebration anyways :)
