Ah....!
MNET Ultimate! Can't wait. And everytime I log onto OMY.SG I see it in the heading ad.
Also reminds me sadly that 2am has not gotten an award on Music Bank /Inkigayo for their newest songs- You wouldnt answer my calls and Like Crazy.
Also liking 2pm I'll be back and Miss A Breathe - now that they are going to venture into the other Asian market - wish them all the best!
These days been caught on two of SNSD new songs!
Here it goes!
Hoot
Best Friend
And one old song
The Hallyu wave! - All over the world.
I hope one day the "Kallang" music world wave (of Singapore) can also be such a phenomenon and give our Singapore local musicians a wider platform :)
(haha- maybe there would be a class teaching Singlish - Kidding! )
'Tis the gift to be loved and that love to return, 'Tis the gift to be taught and a richer gift to learn, And when we expect of others what we try to live each day, Then we'll all live together and we'll all learn to say, 'Tis the gift to have friends and a true friend to be, 'Tis the gift to think of others not to only think of "me", And when we hear what others really think and really feel, Then we'll all live together with a love that is real.

BMW Series 8 Launch Invitation
Recieved an invitation card for the BMW 8 Series launch - so today I made my way to Marina Bays Sands convention center for the display- it was magnificient and a very well designed concept that lulled people into what BMW Stands for.


And then we were given a pass with the instruction to wear it all times - if not, might be mistakenly ushered out.


Then the speech from the BMW Director of Asia and Managing Director of Performance Motors - Which though short expressed their desire to see the brand continue growing and their passion for it.


After the speeches, we began the mingling and eating.
Guess what did they serve?
Fresh Big juicy Oysters freshly detached from their shells with lime provided
People were slurping one after another - Just looking them really tempted me to also try it - but my dislike for seafood related - prevented me from doing so.


Thankfully Chocolate Fondue with amazing marshmallows and shortbread were also prepared.

And the highlight for the event! - the showroom of all BMW series
Pictures up in a minute....
They had guides to bring us around - together with headphones that allows explanation for each car design


And I was shock to see bicycles and motorcycles


And T-shirts, Wallets and belt buckle bearing the BMW sign - I thought only ferrari had that?



And of course to end this blog entry are the amazing designed BMW Cars
First revealing the BMW 8 Series


BMW Car 1 (and so on)











And what I love about this whole event was how well-planned it was. Even the design of the showroom were aligned to their brand

The Housemaid (2010) !~!~!
This month is really movie month - where a number of my favorite actors and actresses comes into scene :)
On Monday, at work, my mind kept wandering to the movie- screening at night : My Housemaid ( a Korean Movie)played by one of my favorite actress Jeon Do-yeon - Sponsored by OMY.SG and also Reebonz ( Can't thank you all enough )Also, this film was directed by Im Sang-Soo ( who is famous for controversial themes).

My Housemaid is a remake of the 1960 black-and-white classic, following similar storyline but with different methods of portraying the emotions surging in each of them.

The plot revolves around (Eun-yi "Jeon Do-yeon"),who was hired as a nanny for an upper-class family , the Hoon Family. The Hoons ( Wife Hae-ra "Seo Woo" and Husband Master Hoon "Lee Jeong Jae") seems to be the couple one would yearn to be - riches, beautiful children, living the life - but like many instances, a pregnant wife worst fear in her 9 months of pregnancy : a husband who cannot control his 'nature' and 'needs' and finds another women. And to make things worse, The handsome composer Hoon satisfies his desires in the nanny hired and gets her pregnant.The other nanny "Yoon Yeo-Jeong" exposes the truth however to realise that it was a big mistake to do that. But, because of money, all things can be settled. The mother-in-law "Park Ji-Yeong" devises evil schemes to induce miscarriage and when all does not go according to plan, she does it by force - where she instigates an abortion - leaving Eunyi no choice at all. And with such circumstances, Revenge ensues...........
What remains etch in my memory are the following scenes



- Master Hoon coming to the nanny room and starts touching her - in lust and desire; where in the scene before, the pregnant wife though being so pregnant still 'rides' him and does 'sexual' service ( Oral service) for him ----> Really. How could he?



- The mother-in-law telling the daughter : Every rich man will have a fling, just close your eyes and pretend it doesnt happen, think about your children's future, -----> how reality bites. Would you leave him or stay for the riches?

- The daughter tells the nanny " I saw my grandmother push you" and the nanny tells the girl " no, it was by accident" --------> thats why they always say children knows best. Adults always attempt to decieve themselves to make it better but children always say what they feel or see.
Personally though I had expected much more from the movie itself ( especially the ending) , I can say that this film is far beyond the level of satisfactory. Its way above average.
1. The actors and actresses - even the daughter - was amazing.
You could see their soul while acting where the mixture of their raw pain and their desires - was captured in many of the scenes.
2. The scenes that speaks of the strong theme of dominance and manipulation and sexuality and social status
Reflects the world in reality - where at times we cannot help but sigh at how power or riches does bring one forward - where at times we see men falling to their nature causing their wife to suffer all for that short moment of time - where at times we see how desires take over someone and that which causes one to lose one's self - where in moments, all we see is our satisfaction and what should be ours is ours - where it seems everyone want to just take and not give and will protect themselves eventually. ---------------------- Sounds depressing hmm.. (haha)
I would strongly recommend this show - especially if you are a person like me, who loves prominent themes and make you reflect on certain issues in life
Note: A number of photos have been taken from Han Cinema.

Dia De Muertos
On 30.10.2010 Together with My Mexican friends, while everyone was celebrating Halloween, we , together with fellow couchsurfers, were celebrating Dia de Muertos :)
Our Mexican friend Karina, The Chef

Who served us the food she cooked :)

Ceviche

Mole ( Brought from Mexico)

Arroz con Leche ( Rice with Milk)

And also the Jamaica Drink (Hibiscus Tea) which was so refreshing

I miss Horcharta (Rice drink)
Her HDB neighbor also came to join in the fun with his 'Satan' image and tried to kill us all. hahahahaha..

They started the night by bringing out the Ukuleles accompanied by a guitar for the song " Bendita Tu Luz" by Mana

Here's the version by the original version ( with Eng sub for understanding)
Next we prepared for our night walk to our friends' place.


What a fun night! :)
The next time, a Salsa dancing night too maybe. hahahahaha.. I miss dancing Salsa through the night :)
