Watsons Move Your Body Zumba 2016

I like to move it, move it
   She likes to move it, move it
   He likes to move it, move it
   You like to, move it!
No, it's not a Madagascar-related post, but the BIGGEST Zumba beach party with Glow In The Night theme will be coming to Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach on 22 October 2016!

Zumba is packed with fun fusion of dance moves that provides a total body workout. Grooving to the beats of salsa, flamenco, and merengue music feels more like a dance party than a workout, which is exactly what makes Zumba so popular. I'm sure many people don't like to go to gym and workout but Zumba is so enjoyable that you would actually keep coming back for it. It completely changes the idea of exercise and gets you hooked on the Zumba beat!


Last year, Watsons Move Your Body Zumba was the biggest Zumba event in Malaysia with more than 7,000 participants held in Penang. And this time around, it is expecting more participants than last year to sweat it all out with Zumba routines in collaboration with International Zumba organization in the United States, Zumba Fitness.


Not to mention that Hitz FM radio announcers Ean and Arnold will be there along to hype up the night together with all Zumba participants.


If you like pop-style Latin music or enjoy dancing, then Zumba is perfect for you. You don't have to worry if you don't know how to dance Zumba as the Zumba Education Specialists and the team will be guiding all participants. There will be sufficient projected screen to assist you to follow the Zumba routine.


You can definitely look forward to an exciting array of Zumba routines led by two Zumba Education Specialists, David Velez from Colombia and Michael Thomas from Australia accompanied by heart trumping Zumba tracks from the likes of Malaysia's finest DJs including Jakeman & Skelator, Leng Yein, Chukiess & Whackboi and H3.

"We have checked out the beats for Zumba and we are pretty sure we can come up with exciting tracks. Most importantly, our music and the coordination with the instructors are important. We look forward to collaborate with all the great people here and produce a great show," Jakeman & Skeletor.

[Fashion] Freeport A'Famosa Outlet, Malacca











Dear fellow shopping kakis, now you don't need to go all the way to Johor Premium Outlet or Sepang Mitsui Outlet Park, there's another outlet mall which officially opens its doors on 5th December - Freeport A'Famosa Outlet in Malacca. This 180,000 sq.ft. outlet village with over 100 retail units is located just outside A'Famosa Resort Malacca, easily accessible from the North-South Highway, about 55 minutes via the Alor Gajah Interchange from the Sungai Besi toll and only 30 minutes drive from Malacca town.

Freeport A'Famosa Outlet is set in an open air mall featuring a lake, fountains, carousel and windmill with architecture loosely themed on Malacca's Dutch heritage. Apart from shopping, this place is suitable for family outing as well as photography session. They provide more than 1,500 free car parking spaces but I can tell you it's definitely not enough as I've been told that people are queuing to enter the parking lot and they even park till the roadside. Thus far the shops opened include Nike, Forever 21, Cotton On, G2000, Puma, Sacoor Brothers, Samsonite, Triumph, Nature Republic and so on.

I was there on a Sunday afternoon and the outlet mall is totally crowded that you will have to queue up to enter the shop, fitting room and even cashier. Therefore, I will suggest you guys try to avoid weekends or else 3 hours of shopping is definitely not satisfying! Furthermore, Phase II is expected to be complete in 2016 with another 40 shops and the total outlet size including Phase II and III is 310,000 sq.ft. which will definitely be a big hit among the Malaysians!

We were actually on a shopping mission to put on our best outfit with the theme 'casual' on a budget of RM350. We were literally running from one to another shop and I ended up buying the navy shirt and black denim skirt from Cotton On for RM60 and RM30 each, a sling bag and earrings from Forever 21 for RM60 and RM10 each (they are having storewide buy 2 free 1 and I share the deal with my friends) and a pair of Nike Air Zoom Structure 18 for only RM179. Total damage RM339 and you can get one whole outfit including accessories, such a great bargain isn't it?

When it comes to shopping deals, I understand that our main concerns are always the availability of size and whether is it long overdue and outdated stocks. Freeport A'Famosa Outlet does not let me down as I still manage to get my size with ease from XS to S and I'm so surprised to find that some of the new designs actually appear in Nike Factory Store which means they do not carry old stocks only. I wish I have more time and I will definitely be back for 2 or even 3 more pairs of Nike heh. Happy shopping!


Freeport A'Famosa Outlet
Jalan Kemus,
Simpang Empat,
78000 Alor Gajah.



Operating hours: 10:00AM - 10:00PM daily

Celebrating Guinness 50th Anniversary with limited-edition bottle designs


Well I suppose that none of you doesn't know what is Guinness and it's one of the Malaysians' favourite black brew. Malaysian-brewed Guinness has been previously recognized as the best in the world, beating more than 50 breweries worldwide to win the coveted "Guinness League of Excellence" award five years in a row. In conjunction with the celebration of Guinness 50 years of brewing in Malaysia, they have unveiled three Malaysian-inspired limited-edition designs for its Foreign Extra Stout bottles and cans at the Intermark Hotel last Thursday.


"It's a very fitting way to celebrate the milestone of 50 years of brewing Guinness in Malaysia," said Bruce Dallas, Marketing Director at Guinness Anchor Berhad (GAB), "For the first time, we've created brand new limited-edition designs specifically for one country, drawing inspiration from its culture and its people. Guinness has a long and storied relationship with Malaysia, so it's particularly pleasing to be able to launch this world-first here."




The three limited-designs will be available between now and November, while stocks last. Each design is bursting with vibrant colours and intricate patterns, inspired by the wealth of history and culture Malaysia has to offer. What hasn't changed, however, is the glorious Guinness inside - it's still the exact same formula that Malaysians have known and loved for all these years.

The new limited-edition designs have not only been inspired by Malaysia; they have been created for Malaysians, by Malaysians comprised of musician Edwin Raj (frontman of local band They Will Kill Us All), artist Donald Abraham, film director James Lee, graphic artist Lefty (Julian Kam), and photographer Vincent Paul Yong.




Each limited-edition design represents a distinct era in Malaysia's journey - stretching back to our tribal roots, through to the age of independence, leading into the modern day and looking ahead to the future.


How can we attend Guinness event without Guinness? We were served Guinness with caramel ice cream which tastes really good surprisingly!


The three collectible limited-edition designs will appear on all bottles (325ml and 640ml) and cans (320ml) of Guinness Foreign Extra Stout sold from now until November, while stocks last. I've got my hands on all three designs of bottle, how about you? :)

Next is Now | Samsung Galaxy Note5

After four months since the grand launching of Samsung Galaxy S6 and S6 Edge, Samsung is back with another great invention of Galaxy Note5 representing its continuous commitment to the big screen smartphone market, which Samsung boldly pioneered in 2011 with the original Galaxy Note. I'm so glad to be one the first few to discover the brand new Galaxy Note5 and now I'm going to highlight some of the new and main features and I bet you will fall in love with the phone rightaway like I do!

As I have mentioned of the big screen Galaxy Note5, 5.7" Quad HD Super AMOLED (518 ppi) screen definitely have a great advantage for multi-taskers as you can always check news updates while messaging or taking notes with S Pen. Despite the 5.7" display screen, it ergonomically fits in one hand with a narrower bezel and curved back as inspired by the design legacy of the Galaxy S6. With the increased size of display screen, Samsung has also increased its RAM to 4GB, offering the most powerful capacity and processing power on the market, enabling you to enjoy more seamless multi-tasking, keep up with messages, post updates to social networks faster and enjoy graphic-heavy games without suffering lag time.


Another point which I find Galaxy Note5 comes in really handy is its dual SIM slot. It is very useful for mixing work and pleasure, rather than carrying separate phones for their work and personal contracts. Dual SIM phones are also useful for maintaining two personal contracts, however, whereby one might offer a good rate on calls and texts and the other offers unlimited data. Or perhaps you frequently travel abroad, you would like to carry a SIM card when you're at home and another that is local to the country you're visiting. Dual SIM function is getting more and more common and nowadays people will put it as one of the main criteria when they're looking for new phone.

Furthermore, Galaxy Note5 can now convert handwriting into text in your preferred language. For people who love to write instead of pressing the qwerty keyboard, it will be an advantage as well as time saving.



As a blogger, most of us will automatically press on the Camera app once we got our hands on the new Samsung Galaxy Note5 and start selfie here and there. I got to say Samsung is gradually improving on the camera features all this while and now they even have Live Broadcast where you can record videos and instantly share it in real-time straight from your phone! It's really convenient especially during concerts or travelling where you would like to share your joyous moments with your friends and family. I would definitely give a thumb up to the 16MP (Front) and 5MP (Rear) F1.9 camera for capturing stunning selfies and more amazing shots even in low-light conditions.


Here comes my favourite features of Galaxy Note5, the screen off memo and scroll capture. Talking about the screen off memo, I personally love to record things or write notes on my Dropbox and now I can skip all these hassle to unlock my phone and open the app to record with this new feature. You can just write a memo or draw on the screen anytime, anywhere with S Pen even when the screen is off!


On the other hand, scroll capture is actually screen capture (eg. of a webpage) from top to bottom up to 22 pages and you don't need to repeatedly scroll down and printscreen anymore. You can also do instant editing like adding some notes by the side or highlight the key points and share it to your friends. The improved air command will be activated immediately when you take out your S Pen and you can customize up to three shortcuts for instant access.

The new features are so convenient and I think it's totally meant for me! I'm so tempted to purchase the Galaxy Note5 so most probably I will trade up with my Galaxy S5 to get a cheaper price off heh :P


Making the 5th anniversary of the Galaxy Note series, Samsung is proud to commemorate the Galaxy Note5 with a celebration of the Note Legacy. What makes Galaxy Note series so special is its larger display screen, incomparable S Pen which does wonders and its multitasking capabilities providing Samsung users with an all-round immersive experience.

Samsung Galaxy Note5 (32GB storage) is available at all Samsung retail stores at the RRP of RM2,699 (inclusive of 6% GST) in two colour options - Gold Platinum and White Pearl. Additionally, an exclusive trade-up campaign (www.samsung.com/my/note5tradeup) will commence on 4th September where Samsung fans can trade in their old smartphones for a brand new Samsung Galaxy Note5 (discounts up to RM1,150). Head to the nearest Samsung store now and discover the new features!

Graduan Aspire 2015: Corporate Luncheon with CEOs & Booth Visiting


"Kick start my weekend with an exclusive corporate luncheon with CEOs from top notch companies (Y)" was definitely the coolest moment ever in my life Instagram. As I've mentioned in my previous post, Graduan Aspire 2015 Career & Postgraduate Fair is back in KL Convention Center with a much bigger scale this year and going a step further, they are bringing in the most sought-after corporate luncheon from UK to Malaysia for the first time at Graduan Aspire! A highly anticipated activity in Graduan career fairs in the UK, Aspire+ Corporate Luncheon is an exclusive, invitation-only networking session between Malaysia's leading corporate leaders and high calibre talents, conducted within a casual dining setting.


Out of the thousands of resumes received prior to Graduan Aspire 2015, only about 200 graduates and working professionals were invited to be part of this rare opportunity to meet and engage with top-performing corporate CEOs and senior management and I'm just so lucky to be one of them!


Before the luncheon starts, there was a CEO Forum and Q&A session where the fresh graduates and working professionals get to glean in-dept industry knowledge and impress potential employers with their skills and abilities; it also allows corporate employers to attract some of the best talents Malaysia has to offer to their organisations. It was an honor for me to attend this corporate luncheon and rub shoulders with all the CEOs and listen to their stories and career guidance. Highly recommended to all fresh graduates and working professionals because it will definitely enrich your life experience!


Followed by the corporate luncheon, we went down to the exhibition halls for talent networking fair. This year, there are over 120 top corporations and institutions like Maybank, Shell, PwC, Nestle and a large number of leading universities and colleges like Universiti Malaya, Taylor's University, Lim Kok Wing, and Sunway University participating in Graduan Aspire 2015.

"Since its launch in 2011, Graduan Aspire has served as a strategic platform that connects both ends of the employment spectrum. Our growing list of exhibitors and innovative activities have not only helped match thousands of quality talents with leading employers; it has also provided jobseekers and post-graduates with timely and essential information to help them make informed decisions with regards to their future careers," said Puan Elia Talib, Managing Director of Graduan.









It is my first time visiting a career fair and it's kinda different from what I thought. Besides booth visiting, there are many other activities like conferences/forum, exciting games or even audition on the spot! I would say it's a must to visit Graduan Aspire career fair especially for fresh graduates, take this opportunity to attend to your desired employer and clear all your doubts. Remember to bring along a copy of your resume as well because you might just simply bump into a corporate CEO anytime! Who knows :P

Graduan Aspire Career and Postgraduate Fair 2015

"Hey, which Company are you going to apply after graduate?", "Are you planning for further studies like Master's degree?", "I'm going to apply XX Company, what do you think about it? Is it good?" Here are some examples of questions that people always ask nowadays and most of the fresh graduates are clueless of what to do next. Now you have no more worries because Graduan Aspire Career and Postgraduate Fair 2015 is back to answer all your questions!


Working with leading organizations in Malaysia, Graduan Aspire 2015 will offer talents the opportunity for a better insight into their future with this two-day career and networking fair. Designed to promote better interaction between talents and organizations, Graduan Aspire 2015 will be the gateway to a successful future. On top of that, talents interested in pursuing their education in postgraduate studies will be able to receive the necessary information they need via the many university booths. This year, Graduan promises an even more impressive list of exhibitors like Maybank, IOI Group, Universiti Malaya, Taylors University, Resorts World Genting, the Big 4 Accounting Firm and so on.


If you're not aware of, I'm actually working with KPMG right now; I have yet to complete my studies as my course would require a 3-years working experience before I go on with my Advance stage papers. Honestly I didn't do much research before I join hence there are many things that I didn't realized until I come in but of course I'm not regret with my decision too. The firm is being very supportive and they provide so many different type of training (FOC!) for you to continue develop yourself in terms of skills and knowledge.


It is a very good option especially for those who would like to further their studies and work at the same time, so be sure to attend this Graduan Aspire and get a better understanding of your desired employer. I believe that the other companies provide the similar offer as well.


And guess what, the best part of Graduan Aspire 2015 would be the exclusive corporate luncheon with CEOs from the top notch companies! This networking session will allow CEOs and senior management to gain a better insight and interact with the top percentile of Malaysian talents whilst dining in a casual setting. It's time to accelerate your career with in-dept industry knowledge from CEOs themselves!

I'm so thrilled and I can't wait for the exclusive luncheon with CEOs! Once again calling all fresh graduates, don't miss out this biggest affair of the year and you can log on to www.graduan.com/aspire to register for the career fair, conferences or even the most sought-after corporate luncheon. See you!

Party of the Century @ Empire City, Damansara Perdana


Do you still remember that I've mentioned 23rd January marks an important date for me as I'll be attending the Party of the Century and meeting Paris Hilton, 2AM, Taboo of Black Eye Peas etc and interview them personally? Finally the day has arrived! Although the interview session has been canceled, I'm still glad and excited that I get to meet them up-close (2 steps away literally!).

In conjunction with the grand opening of Empire City, they held an exclusive preview, namely the Party of the Century, on last Friday. Empire City is an all new 30 acre mixed use development in Damansara Perdana which aims to be the ultimate spot for meeting, dining, shopping and relaxing, all within a self-contained city that balances business with leisure, and that huge area covered with red carpet in the picture below will be transform into an Olympic-sized skating rink in no time!



The Party of the Century has invited an array of performers and artists featuring the renowned Korean group - 2AM, Paris Hilton, Taboo of Black Eye Peas, the Australian tenor - Mark Vincent, and various performance arts from flamboyant speed painters to traditional with a twist in the form of an LED dragon dance.

















It's indeed the party of the century where I've transformed into a fancy lady dressing in the glamorous 1920s theme and partying with all the top stars, Paris Hilton, 2AM, Taboo from Black Eyed Peas etc in the VVIP section! I doubt that if you will come across this type of event again in the future in Malaysia. Thankyou #team50MY for the opportunity and you may check out their pictures using hashtag #PartyoftheCenturyMY and #potcMY.
