OMFG. My title for this blogpost sounds terribly wrong on all levels. Only the twisted minds will get it. Argh.

When you’re all worked up and brain-dead from the busy city life, an escapade to the great divine is what you need. Heck, not like I’m achieving Nirvana or anything but,
Loreal gave me an awesome experience in a cottage placed right-smack in the middle of a forest reserve.

A coach came to ferry the whole lot of us off to the deep depths of the jungle. They even have their very own ride. Pretty cool, no?

It was a flippin’ long ride, if I have to say so myself. God bless iPods. I brought buddy Zhao along with me. Hey, it’s always better to bring a pal along.
-cough- Company works too, lest the iPod gets busted.

Okay, the journey was really long. Like, very long. I could prolly finish a 2 whole other blog posts by the end of the ride. The whole lot of us were practically the only ones on the highway other than one or two other vehicles; yeah it was THAT secluded.

The last time I actually vandalized something in public was when I was 15 : my school bus stop (whoops. Gimme a dimerit point then) and the public telephone booth. Uh-huh. Did some tiny graffiti of my name… and I’m not ashamed. *grins* Hee.

Random doodles at it’s finest.

I was also given a test tube upon arrival. I’ll tell you why soon 🙂

Lotsa local celebs & socialites were present for this grand media launch too. Serie Nature, as it is aptly called. This is because every product under this line comprises only 100% natural ingredients – kickin’ em chemicals away!

Behold the awesome product line

All its main ingredients were tomato lycopene, rice proteins, green oils, avocado, white clay, peach milk, fig and ginseng.

I actually stalked this child everywhere he went just to shoot a portrait shot of him. Trust me, he was uber camera shy.

But I managed to shoot him in the end
when he least expected it

Refreshments were served as well. I liked how each lil snack is in sync with the relevant product; with the similar ingredient, that is.

My favorite of ’em all.

AND JUST BECAUSE IT’S MY FAVE,
I’LL SHOW IT TO YOU AGAIN

Whooop-dee-doo!

Unfortunately, the other snacks -cough- leaves a little to be desired.

Okay, NOW I’ll tell you what the test tubes were for. With every booth visited, a teaspoon of grinded powder will be added and labelled to our test tube.

Here’s a lil video I made of my test tube and the surroundings of this forest reserve just to let you guys see it for real.

Now this whole thing was some awesome sh!t. I’ve tried & tested their shampoo and hair mask – I must say it’s pretty good! Love the natural scent too. Kudos!

I bet they loved it just like I did

What’s Green and brings a new meaning to

Quadraphonic rock opera?

Just a lil sneak peak before my whole cover of it :

Bet all these people are slushed by the beach right now.
Most were already flippin’ tipsy before I left
XD

We had bacardi, gins and beer. The last time I actually partied to a rave by the beach was ages ago. Gawd. Perfect for getting the stress of my jammed mind.

I’m endorsing Corona here. Simply the best!
The next time ya wanna grab some awesomm possum beers,
GRAB A CORONA

Just came back and imma hit the sack right away. Being half wasted, half sleepy, half hungry, having half a writer’s block and half a migraine ain’t good.

Stay tuned.

It's clocking into the 2nd month here with Juice already.

All work and no play makes us dull peeps.

Our editor-in-chief cooked up something fun perk up our Fridays.

 

It's :
CATCHA'S HAT DAY!
Where everyone had to show up at work with a headgear on.

 

 

yes. ANY headgear
LOL @kenwei316

 

 

Needless to say, I did not pack my fancy headgear along with me to KL. If it was Penang we're talking about, I'd prolly be spoilt for choice between my cowboy hat, bunny ears, devil horns, some old cardboard crown I made when I was 9, a feathery party hat and so on. 🙁

So, I settled for the most practical (and prolly the only headgear I brought) , the trucker cap.

 

p.s – I don't like the above picture.
It's kinda blurry and the color quality makes me look like a cartoon character
Gawd knows why I even put it up. That's unfortunately my only single pic.

 

 

Okay, at least I don't look like I jumped out into reality from an animated show in the following picture.

 

Chris, myself & SueAnn

Fancy some good Guiness for a Shamrockin' time?

 

 

You betcha!
Hey.. St. Patricks Day is waaay over, fellas

 

Check out 'em fiesty felines :

Don't mess with 'em.
Like, seriously.

 

Behold my lunchmates :

 

Ken, the Mr. Where-to-eat-ar?

Derek the cowboy for t he day and I
ROFL

 

Just so you know, not every working day is as crackers as today. Believe me, everyday is an uber fast-paced day with deadlines after deadlines and one rush after another.

I know I may screw up at times, but then again, don't all first timers? Hmm.. trial & error has taught me much. House styles of writing and how things work here in the editorial and publishing world, unwritten do's and don'ts plus the riguors of how being in the media is like.

My verdict?
Exactly where I see myself being in, as a child of 10. I'm glad to say found my niche; so this writer/photographer will still be kickin' her swagger for years to come!
