MV Doulos Here I Come

December 12, 2008December 12, 2008 sweet surrender 14 Comments

Update: MUST GO! This will be the last time you can go on board of MV Doulos as it will retire in 2010 and will be replaced by Logos Hope, a new ship.

Here’s the map in case you don’t know how to go.

I missed it 7 years ago. Now, it’s here again! No way I’m going to miss it this time! Located at Sim Kheng Hong Port at Pending. Wondering how to go? Go to Pending Seafood Centre, don’t turn into the centre instead drive straight up, you will see the port there.

The ship! It’s part of my childhood, I’m sure it’s the same to everyone of you.

You can take photo with the mascot. I did! However, my photo isn’t with me. Spot the two guys there? One of them is cute ;p *LOL*

Luckily I didn’t wear my heels and didn’t wear skirt. The staircase is not nice to climb. I’m sure those wearing heels will have problem going up, don’t even say going down. It’s best to wear flip flop or just flats. Not to forget to capture the view from the ship.

View from another section of the ship.

You can see framed photos and information along the way before you reach the book shop.

I had fun with books like these last time. Will definitely buy many books back after the visit. Love those colouring books, puzzle books and sticker books. I was thinking of buying some back hehehe… It’s fun to stick those stickers around the book hehehe… They are so cute! I didn’t buy any though. Maybe during my next visit. They are priced in Unit, e.g. 100 Unit is RM8.

There are also souvenirs that you can buy. I saw many fancily designed bibles, I’m sure it will be one of it kind when you bring it to church ;p There are also many types of notebooks, cook books, self-help books, story books, CDs and etc. Young and old, I’m sure everyone will find something that they like there. It’s great to do Christmas shopping there. Better to give little children books rather than toys.

There was also mural painting competition going on when we were there.

The ship will leave after 2nd January 2009. Wonder when will I see it again. I sure do miss it!

Sarawak ICT Expo 2008

December 5, 2008January 21, 2022 sweet surrender 10 Comments

Remember Sarawak ICT Expo 2007? There’s the most talk about Canon girl? I didn’t see any this year ;p I know some will be disappointed hehehe…

Went there today. So hard to find parking and there were more people because it’s school holiday. I spent about RM100 there today.

There are 3 halls this time and the air-conditioning was really strong! First time go there experiencing full blast of cold air ;p

Rynn Lim East Malaysia Promo Tour

December 1, 2008December 1, 2008 sweet surrender 6 Comments

I know some of you are waiting for this event. Only managed to get image editting done. It was last night at SUPP HQ.

Here you go… Nothing much to say, will just let the photos talk to you ;p

The crowds and the MCs.

Rynn in action.

Ahem… Someone with his “ahem”. His 50D la! He’s so afraid I expose it first on my blog. These are the authorized photographers of the night ;p

More of Rynn in action. I know some people are so damn crazy about him especially those teenage girls.

The sign sign session.

Enjoy the videos, managed to shoot some part of his singing. I kid you not, it’s not lip sync. He’s a good singer.

MINEX Jewellery 100% Trade-in Launch

November 5, 2008December 20, 2008 sweet surrender 3 Comments

Was invited to join the launching of MINEX Jewellery 100% Trade-in last Saturday. It was too good to resist that I actually skipped my class for 1 and a half hour hehehe… Also invited some bloggers along but too bad many couldn’t go because it was too last minute.

Goodie bags were given to each of us. Inside, there’s the “ring“.

While waiting for other guests to arrive, we were given some previews. Lousy photos, not easy to take pictures with this kind of lighting too. Summore, sat at the third row, what to do? Then the huge ass cameras were all in front with all the speedlights. Most of my photos have speedlights sprouting out just like mushrooms hahaha… Majority of the bloggers with DSLRs managed to sit in front but not me, nevermind about that, I don’t really care.

Left: The man behind Minex Jewellery, Benjamin Wung. He’s only 25 years old! It got most of us shocked when we had our private Q&A session with him after the launch, more about it later.

Right: After that, three models came out and dance to the music “Diamonds are a Girl’s Best Friend”. It’s very entertaining.

Final pose after the dance.

More jewellery on show after that. Noticed many familiar faces. Always see some of these models in actions in many events in Kuching.

More, more, more… Besides walking on the stage, the models also came down and walked around the ballroom so that those sitting behind can have a look at the jewellery.

Finally all on stage.

Clap, clap, clap…

POP! Confetti everywhere. It was so loud that most of us got a shock. ;p

After the event, we were asked to go over to Senso to have a private Q&A session with Benjamin. We were caught with surprise, didn’t expect that there would be such session and I got nothing to ask at all! Not prepared at all. 😛 Luckily Cyril(or is it Edwin?) started the ball rolling. Learnt a lot from the man himself and he’s a certified gemologist and there’s only 3 in Kuching, or is it Sarawak? I didn’t really pay attention ;p Before the session, a group photo with him is a must. I’m sure many of you are inspired by him. He’s so young and he’s so successful.

Wondering how the 100% trade-in system works?
Let’s say, you bought a jewellery that cost you RM1000, then after a while, you decided to buy a new one/upgrade to a nicer one which costs RM2000. Then just bring back the jewellery you bought and trade it in without lossing the value. You will get back RM1000 and then you top up another RM1000. There you go! You are now the proud owner of the RM2000 jewellery. Get the drift?

For example, if you aim to own a 1-carat diamond, you cannot afford it but can afford a small one with good quality of course. Just buy the small one will do. Then when you think you are ready to upgrade, just bring the small diamond back and trade it in without losing the value and top up to get the bigger one. You will be assured that you will get good quality diamond no matter how big or small it is at Minex. The diamonds are carefully inspected by Benjamin himself and the other colleague of his(I forgot her name ;p) before putting it for retail in Minex.

Here’s how their 3-year dream plan works (Click to view)

May your dream come true 🙂

Of course, thanks to Ron from TrueCard for inviting us 🙂
