The Statement

Tong to rong tong chiang! It's Chinese New Year baybeh! The time for reunion, ang pows and braised duck, big fat salty braised duck! Nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom (apparently it means chewing something, I learned from a long pointless internal chain mail)

Ahh, here I am, feeling a bit tipsy, typing as my phone try to keep up with the SMSes, recalling the weeks that were before.

2009 started with a bang, in workload. First up was the new BMW 7 Series launch, which was a combination of one media conference, a three-night consumer event, one conference-call interview, and two media round tables.

The event setup? See for youself.












Emcee for the night, Wan Zaleha


Guest artist from New Zealand, Bic Runga.


She is good.


Like, so good!


Food by Justin Quek.





And now (dum dum dum) the real star of the night- The new BMW 7 Series!


Making the vroom vroom entrance.


Almost there...


In position!


Now DJ, drop it like it's hot!


Then the statement was made.

Was it a nightmare to manage? Now that I've survived it, I will say.... YOU BET! But helpful folks, plus a few rounds of Hoegaarden ease away a lot of the pain. :D

Oh, the car!

If you haven't read it from the local dailies, BMW Malaysia is bringing in the 750Li and 740Li. Apart from the luxury, powerplant and technology, what interest me the most is the Side View Camera installed on both sides of the car's front bumper, AND, the "OSIM" for backseat taukeh. In-flight, sorry, I mean in-car entertainment is ensured with individual panels for taukeh and taukeh soh too!

The 750Li is powered by 4.4 liter twin turbocharged V8, similar to the X6... EEK! My neighbour just got their twelve feet long prosperous red dragon fire crackers out, they are turning the neighbourhood into a warzone! If you want to know more about the car, visit here, k thanks bye for now!


P/S: Going to Taiwan this Wednesday. Dodolook, wanwan, here I come!

P/P/S: Braised duck and Corona, nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom nom

Guess what.

Event tomorrow.
Printer broke down.

Dull

Time flies isn't it? It is already 11 days after my last entry. At this rate, I will probably have 3 updates every month... or even less.

So what happen to me over the last 10 days?

Hmm... nothing about ME really. All is about work, mistakes at work, meetings, reports, phone calls, e-mails, SMSes...

In my email to my confidante, I said I don't want to be complaining too much, or say "I'm very busy" all the time. It is sad to not have anything new to tell them, except "You know, have been busy with work."

As more responsibilities are rested upon me, I become more controlled in my speech, in my actions. I have to. But not skillfully. So like a self-fulfilling prophecy, nothing gets done fast. No argument won. No fun.

I'm "adultified", trading my fun-loving, suicidal self for growing up.

So monotonous, even I lost interest in myself.

已经是2009年了

跨年这么有意义的一刻，在下当然以非常有意义的方式渡过- 看电影！而且是很不错的海角七号！ 真的很不错啦，比 The Spirit 好看 100 倍！

我的2008年大事记：-

排名第一，应该是亚洲公关奖以及大马公关奖吧！这难以置信的荣誉，对我来是一整年努力和付出的肯定。我没说过吧，为了工作，我当掉了一科。这是自国中毕业以后就从没发生过的事，在下可是高材生也，叹～

第二，我还是学生。话说自2007年7月开始我就展开半工读的人生，在周末修读英国课程。一年半以后，我完成了6科（因为当掉了一科），现在还剩下6科。2009年计划完成另外4科，期望2010年能顺利毕业。

第三，旅行。2008年的旅行，全部都是因为工作关系，所以老板，经理以及同事们，谢谢啦！我踏上了梦中的巴厘岛海滩，亲身体验宝马的奢华之旅，而且不止一次！

第四，汽车。人生中第一次驾驶MINI, X3，X6以及M3，拜托M3也(虽然只有15分钟）!

第五，参与本地LOMO摄影展。我好像中毒了。

最后，2008年12月31日是爱玉冰在我们公司的最后一天。明明就大我一岁的她，行为举止可爱到不行，也是我在公司的好好好朋友！C3PO，北京之旅，一路顺风！我会怀念我们一起共事的6个月！

好啦，要睡觉了！大家新年快乐！

p/s: 戴甄妮，我很想念你啊～ 洪祥威别生气，我刚刚见过你。林耀杰和张艳红在和无尾熊玩吗？邱俊宏，祝你得心应手，哈哈。苏文泰大导，成名之日不远了。
