lost of creativity

I feel so sleepy right now but I must blog about this stupid advertisement I saw yesterday on the Star, it was Oldtown's. Yes, the cafe that is doing so well now and I heard it is opening its 100th outlet soon. I almost couldn't believe it cause the ad was stupid. I know the purpose for them advertising is to create awareness but it was too hard-sell of their products. Let me elaborate more.

The headline is something like 28 reasons why you need to go Oldtown, or something like that. The reasons are so stupid, I remember a few hilarious ones. First, 'you can sit down and look at the people passing by, then evaluate their dressings.' What a stupid reason? Can't I go to mamak (which is much cheaper) to evaluate people's dressings? I think there are more to be evaluated there. Lolz. Next, 'not in the mood of eating our nasi lemak? you can try some noddles too'. So hard-sell loh.

I wonder which agency produced Oldtown's advertisements. It's just, plain stupid. It's just depressing to see those kind of ads are being advertised. Maybe I shouldn't blame on the agency's fault because clients have the last word to say.

Miss Astro 2008

I think this is the first time I'm blogging about beauty pageants. Everything has its first time anyway. So, let's get it started with this year's Miss Astro Chinese International. Well, I'm blogging about it cause my classmate is one of the finalists and to the 0506s, in case you didn't know yet, it's May. Oh, to my dear readers, May is contestant number 6. Elaine was talking about the pageant yesterday and she told me our friend is one of the finalists and I was shocked to know who she was! She looked so different in the pictures but when I went to the official site and checked it out, yeah, it's her! Contestant number 3, LiNaa.

The grand finale is coming Saturday at Genting I think but you guys can catch it live on Astro Wah Lai Toi at 8.30pm I guess. I'm wondering whether either one of them will make it to the top three. I hope they will. Cheers~


No.6 : May

No.3 : LiNaa

Show Mi Again

A million apologies to my dear readers, I'm so sorry for neglecting my site for quite some time. The first thing I'm going to touch on is going to be Sammi's Show Mi Again concert at Genting last month. Actually I'm very lazy to comment about it because I have too much to say! Lolz. Overall, the concert was superb. I did many unexpected things during the concert, embarassing ones. I seriously think her performance on both nights were awesome. Some of the songs she sang were even better than the studio recorded ones. Oh, did I mention I managed to touch her hand? Lolz. See, I did something unexpected. I knew alot of good friends from the concert, one of them purposely came from Hong Kong just for the concert but I think it was worth it. Right Rocky?
