The GREAT AUDIO EXPERIENCE

Last Saturday, 29th May 2010 was Singapore largest flash mob event. The Great Audio Experience.



Were you there? A total of 1,200 people took part in this event! I was there with my Sis and other bloggers!!

Starting from three locations; The Heeran, SMU Green and Orchard Central where the participants will tune in to MediaCorp's 987FM, and following instructions whole walking to Plaza Singapura which is the ending point of the event.


See! Participants at Orchard Central getting ready!


All of them queueing up and waiting for instructions. :D

I love the cheerful orange tee! Hahaha!


Moving on to Plaza Singapura.

By the way, Mediacorp Artist Nat Ho was stationed at Orchard Central too!

In the midst of our journey, we had a 10 minutes break and I took a picture of him having deep conversation with the emcee.


There! There!

After which, we continued out walk (It's actually a long walk than what I expected, taking the long route.) and reached our destination.


Look at the crowd! Watching prize giving away to winners.

And I got the guest passes to the VIP Area where I am able to get close with mediacorp stars! All Thanks to Victor. Thank You! :P


With Michelle Chong and Nat Ho.


Me and other bloggers. Thank you to the one who took this picture.

There was buffet too! And if anyone interested, this was what I had.


(Sorry, picture quality not that good...)

ANYWAY, after the filling foods and chilling sessions. I waited patiently for band performances.

And look who I saw?


Benjamin from Black Diamond Ninja!!!

The Fire Fight was there too!

Didn't managed to win the lucky draw but congrats to the lucky winners! Especially the three lucky winners who brought back the iPad home!

Ending this post with the event catch phrase "Live it up without lighting up!"

PS: Non-smokers are very cool!

PS/S: If you are interested, my friend Hisham did a video mash up for the event and you can watch it on his site.

First day of being 21.

I would never thought that I will be 21 so fast. It just feel so surreal and weird that I am actually 21 years old now!

Three words: Still can't believe.

I guess I just need time to err, admit that I am finally 21 years old. Legally an adult, a young adult.

21 years, I really hope I can get serious and be responsible towards my every actions etc. I just have to try being real and stop all my daydreams (Maybe once a while is all right...)

So yeah! 18 May 2010 is my 21st. Happy Birthday to myself!

Thank you all the lovely wishes you all posted in Facebook, Text Messages, MSN and Twitter. Thank You all very much!

PS: Wanted to type a long essay but I guess, just kept it simple and sweet! :D

The Be-Spec-tacular Party Prelude

-
15 May 2010. I had a spectacular 21st Party at my uncle's condo, Glendale Park. Laughter and fun filled with my families and friends.

And today, it's my birthday eve! (Please flood my Facebook, Twitter and mobile phone when the clock hit 12 tonight!)

So before I blog about my awesome and spectacular party! I shall write out an entry about the planning process of this party!


I couldn't really remember the exact date or month when I started my planning. All I know was I wanted my party to be big and fun!

What I think is that, in order to inject the "fun factor" to a party is to have a theme. A birthday party theme. So I googled and looked up on various party themes.

None of it caught my attention. Then I told myself, I must look for a theme that shouts me! A theme that it's very Daniel.

Then I figured out maybe something colourful? Colours that is loud or striking colours! Isn't this very me? No?

However, the theme in the end was not Colourful but Specs. You know? Guests coming with wonderful, awesome and funny spectacles/glasses?

And then suddenly, I got this err, what do you call it? A concepts? Yeah, Be-Spec-tacular popped in my mind all of a sudden!

Be-Spec-tacular; A combination of Bespectacled and Spectacular.

I liked this very much! And I am very proud of myself coming out with this! I am serious! HAHA!

Next, I designed a "so-called" poster so I can use it to be the picture for my birthday event in Facebook.

The first design;



I know, very messy and irritating background I had. The spec you see on the poster is actually a letter B, I mean I wanted to use that shape of the spec to be a letter B but Jason and Amanda told me it's hard to notice it as the spec and the text does not have the same colour tone in sync. (If you get what I mean...)

So I redesigned and this is the 2nd design.



Love the colourful letters but felt that it's abit plain, showed it to Jason and he suggested put some border.

Googled border but couldn't find any borders I like. Until I remember Photoscape have that function! So I went to play around the picture in Photoscape.

And I got this two...





I can't use both of them as the border are black in colour! I mean! I told my friends not to come in black, wouldn't I be contradicting myself if I had black colour in my err, official party cover/poster?

In the end, I used photoshop and made the border and this is the end results.



The effect is from Photoscape by the way.

Initially, I wanted to held my birthday at Durty Nelly, an Irish Bar which I came across and I like the feeling of it. Did enquires on the cost of holding my birthday there but it's a pity that the cost of it was within my budget.



All right, keep a lookout on my Birthday Post! Probably by this week! =D
