I won a Samsung Corby from Nuffnang!

The title says it all~!... I never thought of winning in the first place! I just wanted to share my experience and how I really truly feel when I was invited to the Samsung Corby "Color Me Carnival" event! Even though I didn't win that day, I never felt any loss too. Because that day, like I said, I met lots and lots of cool and awesome people and all bloggers from Nuffnang!

Well, I'm here today sharing my journey to collect my prize... (Thank You x1000000000 million/billion/trillion/zillion times Nuffnang!!)

When I received this email, I first though - Is this for real?!?!?!

Now THIS email, my heart stopped for a brief 5 second!!! I was stunned and shocked and... Okay more realistic, I was surprised! Never in my life I ever imagine anything like this to happen to... of all the people & bloggers on earth... ME?!?! Yes, I'm not faking it.... I'm really grateful "sobs tearfully"... *drips...drips* OKAY enough drama... Next...

Simple enough, regardless of the brand or model, it is by far "the" FIRST prize I won from Nuffnang and "the" FIRST mobile device I've won in my entire history! Feels so happy I could cry... Lolx... (of course if it's a Nokia I'll go GaGa over and over, bragging and blabbing again and again... lolx -no offense Samsung, I just love Ovi...)

My Favourite Past Time!

Well... What do you do when you have reports coming in everyday, every week and every month? Not enough time to complete it all and always doing more than you should or more than you were paid for? 

Have you ever had an experience or maybe facing a situation where you, single or not, have been soooooo busy, that going out for a drink or even going out for dinner has become a slight hassle to you and a distraction to your work?

Maybe it's just me but... The things I do, I take it as seriously as much as I can (I'm only 22, I have my limits too~ I'm no Superwoman) Which reminds me, I guess it's just me afterall... I seldom go out once I come back from work. My reports just keeps adding, I keep learning (AND repeating) but yes... Life is full of Ups & Downs...

My favourite past time is something I do to naturally rid stress and replenish the outings I've missed these past few years... Blah... Blah... Blah... 

Past Time Favourites : 
1. Internet Browsing (I need to be online doing reports afterall)
2. Blogging (Starting to love it!)
3. Sing songs (24/7 without fail)
4. Dance (used to infront of a mirror - like practice... but I dance in my head nowadays... Might rec a vid soon hehehehe)
5. Compose Songs (still trying....)
6. Listen to music
7. Playing NDS Lite!
8. Facebook
9. Online chatting
10. Playing Online Games (Currently : Destiny Online & Hello Kitty Online...)

Well, not exactly Top 10 list but.... It's a random list of the Top 10 favs I have...
I only have pictures of NDS and the current game that I'm "oh-so-into" nowadays!

(Ps. These are my only entertainment for the past 1 year and running... That's why I'm so thankful for Nuffnang & SFC for the event I was invited to go to last 16th Jan 2010 >> Click Here << 
AND I was SUPER THRILLED and tired AND BUSY but EXCITED at the Nokia Comes With Music Launch Party with Boys Like Girls! Seeing them up-close & personal... I'm in love... Lolx!!)

Nokia Comes With Music Launch Party Image Vidz!

The title says it all! This video was specially created and re-edited by on of our colleagues. Great Job! Although the music could've been Boys Like Girls and it'll be a blast but not bad! Go check it out... via FB

Kokphin's Videos

Nokia Comes With Music Launch Party LIVE!

Coming to you from Ratianda! Sabrina will take you back to how and where it all began! (This is my side of the story - there's more involved than I may know of)

Trust me, I know there's more involved here than I've seen but I'm glad to be a part of this outstanding ABSOLUTELY CRAZY event!! It's HIP! It's HAPPENING! It's SiZZlinG HOT!! Let me bring you live experience from my point of view! (Ps. My first live concert and I'm already involved in the makings~!)

Once upon a time.......
First and foremost, I feel bad to those who had to wait in the rain but IT IS NOT OURS to be blamed upon! We DO NOT PREDICT THE WEATHER... We had it WORST THAN YOU! We've been working our ARSE OFF just for you guys and all SOME of you do is Stand & Wait, Faint & then Complain for only HALF the DAY! We said 7.30PM SHARP, it is on your own "choice" to be there as early as 9AM?!?!?!?! The ballots were out accordingly on time. There were few customers that managed to get the device even before the event started because they bought 5800 Xpress Music with us and through their Authorised registered warranty, they were randomly selected via phone call to get the X6 for FREE! You want stuff like this? Support Authorized sets, the benefits are all there! Do not blame us, seriously... Gosh...
(Don't complain to me, I do not own this event and I'm not part of the team that seemed to mess up (in your eyes only) okay! I personally felt everyone did their best and NOBODY IS PERFECT, Get A GRIP!)

Okay enough ranting... SO here goes...
The tough days! We've spent hours working our sweats off just to make this a great event JUST FOR YOU! We ain't complainin' (yes... very tiring) because we know what's best for everyone! The fun! The excitement! Fills the air with MUSIC! That's the key!... So here's some shots from me and my fellow colleagues! Before the event even began!

What do you think? "A picture is worth a thousand words", believe me... I have more than a thousand pictures and I only selected few. Words could not FIT IN TODAY'S EVENT! Feelings are more like it! Here's the start of the event!

The crowd was C.R.A.Z.Y!!!!!! Honestly, the crowd "FREAKED" us out! Oh man! We had to put up an invincible shield from YOU GUYS! Well, I do love it when the event announcer gave a loud stern "shouting" to ask the crowd to BEHAVE! or the tickets for X6 = RM66 lucky draw will be CANCELLED! You guys broke the entrance door!! We had to call for backup from our teams on standby to hold the door from inside alongside with the Police enforcements (more like green army police type-or whatever you call them). We feared you guys will go WILD, which you've managed to at the entrance...

Sorry, no pictures from Aizat or 6ixth Sense... Was busy explaining X6 & N97 Mini -Comes With Music to customers, not to mention we were fully booked to provide a full Comes With Music guidance to some of our lucky recipients who got the X6 for RM66. Btw, I was guiding a customer with his new X6 and his friends were next to me listening when suddenly the 2nd round showed up and one of his friend got lucky too! He kept saying I brought him luck (~hmm...pondering)

Finally! THE GROUP YOU'VE BEEN WAITING FOR!!!!!! BOYS LIKE GIRLS! The crowd LOVE THEM! I used to like their songs and all but seeing them perform CLOSE-UP & LIVE! I'm in ~luurrrvveee... Lolx...

At the end of the day... You guys left at 11pm I'd reckoned... The Police enforcers kicked you out lolx (almost)... But they were telling people the doors are closing. Reasons? LOOK AT THE MESS YOU'VE MADE for US! Noooo!!! Lucky we had people to volunteer to clean up (not me)... It could take the WHOLE DAY... Jeeeeezzz....

Thanks to EVERYONE who'd turned up! I know of a few, @Kellaw (really really really sorry to hear about your device =< ) ; I really couldn't name them all because I've seen familiar faces around that I've seen in Nuffnang & on blogs. @DanevO thanks for helping out! Saw you help cleaning up (a lil) after the event (if I'm not mistaken hehe)...

Samsung Corby - Color Me Carnival!

Hey Guys! We're gonna kick-start 2010 with a special event by Samsung Corby - Color Me Carnival! In-conjunction with Samsung Fun Club, NuffNang, Square Roots, Metafilm, St. John Ambulance & Sunway Lagoon! (There's probably more involved here) Let the games begin! (more like me story-telling it... lolx)

First and foremost, "THANK YOU SAMSUNG & NUFFNANG!" I was shortlisted to be here and this my first and more amazing event that I had fun at. Although I kept to myself most times (super shy) I still made new friends along the way and there's just so much more than just fun & games!

I had to reach at 9.30am SHARP according to the invitation via email. We had to queue to register ourselves. The crowd was "W.O.W"......... 25 participants shortlisted from Samsung Fun Club & 75 NuffNang Bloggers! I won't be surprise if there's more! (it's what I've heard from my friend)

Once we're in Sunway Lagoon Extreme Park, we headed off to grab some seats and our favourite (my favourite!) "Emcee of the Day - Liang" started off with an exciting welcome and our very own Samsung Malaysia Electronics (SME) Sdn. Bhd.'s Marketing Manager, Mr. Sam Chen gave his first speech to kick-start the event!

Our 1st game! 18sg.... Not for the faint-hearted....... Called "Stomp The Yard"
The goal is to step on the other team players balloon as much as possible until the last one standing wins the team! Very brutal game but fun and exciting! (Funny too... ha ha ha)
  

Great game! Amazing teamwork!
Winners as follow : Orange, Pink, Yellow, White

The 2nd game! 18sx.... Try not to get wet or wear extra cover ups later.... Called "Tug-O-War"
The goal is not to slip and fall or vice versa! Pull the rope and win! Simple but tough... It's in the water!!! 

Great teamwork again! Nice strategy... 
Winners as follow : Orange, Pink, White, Yellow 
(Ps. I'm starting to lose concentration here - might've been wrong order, correctly me please... hehe...)


 The 3rd game! "Rock Climbing"... It is nooooooooottt easy!
At first, the goal is to grab as much balloons as we can (same color as team color) one team member at a time. It become almost like a handicapped match... Pink and Yellow's rock climbing walls were tougher than Orange and White...Because of this, our kind-hearted Samsung Event guy (sorry don't know the name), gave us a chance to replay the game and this time, climb anywhere we want but make sure we touch the top and shout 'Corby' before we come back down!

Very strong moral booster from each teams! Not much teamwork seen here except for extra motivations and supporters shouting at their teammates to climb, climb and climb!
Winners as follow : Yellow, White, Orange, Pink
(Oh man! I'm not sure if White and Orange has been mixed up.... Oops!)


The 4th and Final game! 18sg... Yes, brutal... "Paintball"
The goal, each team split into 2 teams of 5 members. Each team against the others must get the flag in the center without getting hit; Before, During & After - getting the flag!.... I must admit, very very tough but worth the experience!

Everyone, great sport~!
Winners as follow : Orange, Yellow, Pink, White
(Did I get this right????)

On my personal experience during the times when I was not participating... I had my other fun watching and playing 1 or 2 other games nearby... Lolx... (I missed out dearly on the sweeeeeet "flying fox"...sobs...)

The Finale Of The Day!
Fooooooooooooooooooooooooddd~! Deeeessseeerrrttsss~!.... Yum... Yum...
Time for the awards!

We had permission to play anything we want at Sunway Lagoon Extreme Park because we have the tags around our wrists. But I had to go back and I want a shower soooo bad! Plus, I had my fun and I'm remembering it my entire life!

Finally, a great big warm wonderful THANK YOU to Samsung, Samsung Fun Club, Nuffnang, Nuffnangers (you-know-who-you-are), bloggers and everyone at the event.
Thank You Samsung for making my day "Oh-So-Colorful". It has been 11years since I last went to a "Theme Park"! Thank you, thank you, thank you.......

Conclusion : Pink team probably got 3rd or 4th place but who cares! Everyone's a winner today! Look at the goodies they gave us already! Plus, we've gained friends we've never met before (I know I did) isn't that the best gift money can't buy?! Priceless!... See ya soon !

Yoyo The Clown

Malaysia's very own "YoYo The Clown"! You'll see him at parties, functions, events and Genting Highlands! Today Sabrina will bring you with an exclusive interview with "YoYo The Clown"! Here goes...

It was 2.15pm when Sabrina reached the doorstep of "Yoyo The Clown", a friendly guy, filled with enthusiasm, fun and laughter. Always cracking up jokes every now and then and never stops being down-to-earth all at the same time.


Sabrina: Good afternoon, Yoyo! It's a pleasure meeting you!
Yoyo : Afternoon to you too young lady and pleasure meeting you too.





Sabrina : I was amazed by the Mardi Gras Parade last seen on Sunday, 12th July 2009 at Genting Highlands! I was awed in excitement and who did it? I mean who came up with the idea?
Yoyo : Genting Highlands of course. I did help out bringing in the people to for the performances like the Magical Clown Show, Fire Dance Show, Mascot Stage Show and the list goes on (chuckles)





Sabrina : (laughs) Amazing! AND the list goes on? Such as? I'm interested, tell us more, it's always good to know!
Yoyo : (grins) Well I had people to come in to dress up in rainbow-coloured costumes, masquerade masks, clowns putting on cheeky faces, stilt walkers, magicians, fire-eating tribal groups (my favourite) and characters from 1001 Nights of Arabia.




Sabrina : Wow! No wonder the parade was lively and colorful AND exciting! I mean, Genting always comes up with fabulous ideas over the years and this is one parade worth mentioning! I'm lucky to interview you right at this moment! You're Genting Highlands very own clown, aren't you?
Yoyo : Well, I've been with Genting Highlands for 8 - 9 years now and it just keeps getting better (chuckles)




Sabrina : And it's great to know that too! But 8 - 9 years?! How long have you been in this business?
Yoyo : In Malaysia, 16 years and overseas 11 years.




Sabrina : A total of 27 years and how did it began?
Yoyo : I actually started at the International Shrine Clown Association (ISCA) of North America since 1983. I was also a member at the NorthEast Shrine Clown Association (NESCA) and I belong to The Northern Clowns of Cairo Temple, Rutland VT.


Sabrina : So how long did you live abroad and decided to come to Malaysia to make it big here?
Yoyo : I lived in Vermont for 11 years or so, volunteering with the Shriners, helping out at charity for 22 hospitals for children before moving back home to Malaysia in the 90s.


Sabrina : When you came back to Malaysia, your first job was Genting Highlands?
Yoyo : (laughs) No, not really. You see, the moment I came back to Malaysia, there wasn't much talent in the clowning business here. So I started the balloon sculpture until today and worked in some hotels like Putra Jaya Marriot Hotel, Sunway Lagoon, Sunway Pyramid, parties, functions, private and company events and now Genting Highlands. 


Sabrina: That's great! And tell us, besides the clown and balloon sculpture, are there anything else that helped you expand your business in Malaysia?
Yoyo : Of course (grins), I love to help scout for entertainers like mentioned above such as the magicians, clowns, mimes, santa clause, God Of Prosperity, stilt walkers, diablo performers and all kinds of artists.




Sabrina : What's your specialty in all that?
Yoyo : Balloon sculpture (smiles). I can make all kinds of balloons at special requests. It takes time and money but it's worth it. I can make a dragon so real, you might just want to put in on display and try not to burst it (laughs)




Sabrina : (laughs) That is amazing! Well tell me more about Mardi Gras Parade. I mean besides the people what about the props?
Yoyo : Besides supplying most of the entertainers for Genting, I lliase a lot with them (Genting) and supply most of the costumes because we make them ourselves even the make up is done by us and trainings I will provide at the same time.




Sabrina : Cool! You're like an all-rounder! It's great to know. Besides Mardi Gras Parade, other events that we can spot you in?
Yoyo : (chuckles) We have events, Diablo events and we even get a group to train the public free-of-charge (FOC). Students will flock by whenever it's a school holiday and they will come and will be eager to learn the Diablo.




Sabrina : Diablo? You caught me there. I'm clueless, fill me in?
Yoyo : (laughs) Well I won't be surprised. You see, Diablo is a chinese yo-yo also known as "Chě Líng", we get performers from Malaysia to come to Genting Highlands and compete and the Best performance and selected participants gets to go to Taiwan, China to win competition and prizes. Some are even hired by Genting Highland to come and perform during the festival and holiday season and all the best players will group on 2 days.




Sabrina : 2 days? Is it soon? What's the update from Genting Highlands this coming holiday?
Yoyo : (smiles) You guessed it right, it was Genting's innovative idea to have this Diablo competition for social purposes known worldwide many many years ago and this will be the first "National Diablo Competition" in Genting Highlands for Malaysians.




Sabrina : The first! This is exclusive! Tell us more!
Yoyo : (laughs) Well, it's just around the corner. On the 19th - 20th December 2009, the "National Diablo Competition" will be official held at Genting Highlands and we expect up to 80 participants all over Malaysia during this 2 day event. There'll be qualified judges and I'm doing my part to help out in this event as much as I can for Genting Highlands.




Sabrina : You sure work hard! Genting Highlands is so lucky to have you on their side. And I realize time is almost up when we're "chatting" (giggles). It's so great to meet you and a wonderful experience it is!
Yoyo : (chuckles) You're pretty much exciting yourself. It's great to meet you too.




Sabrina : Why thank you. I think I'll be headed back for now. I hope to very much hear more of you and the happenings and buzz in Genting Highlands.

Yoyo : You're welcome and same with Ratianda. Keep me posted on the latest updates (smiles).





Sabrina : Thanks again.

Hey guys! It's me Sabrina. I hope you all enjoyed this interview spot! I hope to bring you more! Well, do look out for it!
