We have probably not imagined Blog Awards could be so tedious.

Now that most people have known, we are in the nomination stage of the awards. Sorting hundreds of blogs could be a laborious job, not to even mention we need to specfically seive & read through one by one.

Soon we will be proceeding smoothy into the voting stage where judges will come in to critic, pin-point and mark down their scores. Beforehand preparations are something we must highly take note of, also to think ahead of what we predict might happen. Particularly, this is our first Awards.

It’s gotta be BIG. GRAND AND PRESTIGIOUS!

Today seems like any other day, just that if we were late, our boss did not happen to scold us. Haha, maybe cause it is a Saturday. A flip at the agenda book, we seems to have lots undone! So the weekends came in to remind us that time is slipping by, quicker and quicker.

Each of us were in-charged of various categories for profiling. We have not read blogs as much compared to these few days, until we might be even scared of reading one.

Elaine, who looked through the Food Blogs felt hungrier by every min before lunch. The tantalizing and attractive photos definately make her stomach growl!

Thanks to Ming, her hunger was fufilled as we ordered Sakae Delivery to the office!

Sashimi + Wasabe is my love!!! You know one of my favourite food now (Ming was playing some weird India comedy sitcom while we gorge the yummy sushi.)

Heavy lunch, heavy eyelids. I guess we need some stretching and lazing around, haha!

That’s Elise! Nice figure eh?

Elise felt that it is TIME. Time for her to settle down and nurture kids. That is the after-effect of gazing through so many Parenting Blogs! Haha!

And for Huiwen, she said she was annoyed. Annoyed by Travel blogs with Pandas. Annoyed that whereever she goes, she sees Panda! Even can spot baby Panda on TV! Oh well, what a Panda day for her!

For me, the Geek Blogs made me splurge today. You know, gadgets are expensive, cool gadgets are doubled! Geek Blogs + Comex 2009 = Temptations and Squander.

If you have been following my tweets, you could have realised that I am itching for a DSLR. JUST itching.

You see, its a chain of reaction. Kind Judd after realising my interest, started to spark a convo with me on cameras. He said Carlos is a pro user and knows a lot. So the next day Carlos and I were talking about cameras. He showed me fantastic photos and the itch grew more than just an itch. And just so happen, an event surfaced. Comex is a bitch I must say. My uncle worst. He ‘LURED’ me to Comex cause he needed my help to choose a laptop.

This evening halfway through my work, I took a haitus and went off to check out Comex. Seriously not the place I would want to go. Crowded and messy. But it is the superb place if you know of something you want to buy outta there!

There, there, it is, the mouse trap. Huge yellow booth with gigantic black words stated, “NIKON”. How would someone missed that!? The devil says, “No harm checking out the price right”? And so I did.

End of story.

BUT NO! It doesn’t just stops right there! I said I need to consider, so I went back office, sat down and TRIED to continue my work. It disturbs me sooooooooooooooooooo much that I decided, let me just have a crazy moment. What a great excuse right..

The fucking impatient me went back to Suntec again. So this is the real ending.

Presenting you my love, Nikon D5000, great for entry users!!

I know, I’ve got SO MANY THINGS TO LEARN! It is just lovely to see those great pictures, a feeling in my heart I couldn’t explain verbally.

Here are some photographs we took while playing with it. (Kenny is more excited than me, I don’t know why)

Nothing much to take at home. (Pardon my noobness!) Omg and seriously my fake lashes are really obstructing my focus view big time! But I’m still not ready to sacrifice them off!!

This camera is how I started loving photography. I wouldn’t say I am like the most passionate person out there, but I would say I have enough passion to take up as a hobby and nurture.

This Canon Powershot E1 was a birthday gift to to me last year. By people who play a big part in my life now. My family, friends and colleagues. It wouldn’t become a thing of the past, but I will still bring it along with me wherever I go, as it always had. For those wanting a good camera, I strongly suggest Canon Powershot. They have the ability to shoot great pictures, sometimes just like a semipro (I dare not say pro!).

And now enough of blabbering, I have to finish up my work as promised. (Made this promise so that I would limit myself from playing with my new toy too much)

I’m feeling as if FYP is coming back to haunt me!!

Wow. Wow. Wow. Though I am not really an automobile fan but this race could totally intrigue me to wake up early (my definition for early is before 2pm) on a Saturday to be a part of.

Thanks to Eugene, the 5 of us (HW, Kai Zhi, Eugene, Kenny and myself) got a ride on his car. When we reached, we quickly sorted out the tags to disseminate.

All images courteousy of Kai Zhi.

When all is set and done, we were ushered in to the departure area, needless of passports!

Spot my new shoe from Vincci! Love it!

Before we proceed to the real action, we were warmly welcomed at an air-conditioned VIP sector where tantalizing food were served, accompanied by local emcee and jamming  rock band!

Nothing can describe more than photos!

Hot girls definately receive all the lime light!

Given this chance, I’m glad that I got to meet some bloggers whom I have worked with but not met personally before. One of them is Shadowandy. I’ve also managed to mingle with as many of them as possible.

Here is a great shot with beautiful Tracy!

Before we excitedly storm to the grandstand area, I thought we should participate in the voting. So, ‘Air Power’ or ‘Land Power’?

Everyone else in the world knows Porsche is one of the speediest car in the world. To me, I like things out of the ordinary. No one knew how fast the Jet could go, cause there are no attempts of Jet racing (or not that I know of).  So I hoped for ‘miracle’. And that is why I voted for..

AIR POWER!!!

Luminous CWO jackets and white caps were passed to us. Cap for shade and CWO jacket so that the plane don’t run us down?

We were transported in batches to the grandstand area. And what awaited us was HOT HOT AND HOT….

1) Hot Weather

Though those seated at the grandstand managed to glimpse the real action as compared to those seated in the air-conditioned room inside (watching through screens), the weather was so good that the sun was directly scorching into my skin. I will never get a tone lighter but the opposite. Poor Kenny was wearing long sleeve dark-coloured Tee. And like every other events, audiences have to wait and wait and wait for the actual thing to commence. So we were just BBQ-ing ourselves.

2) Hot Race Queen

Quite pretty eh? Kenny made a funny joke out of her. He said she is orginally fair, just that she has been working since morning at such hot weather. So she became…

3) Hot cheerleader

Save the cheerleader! Save the world!

4) Hot Porsche racer

…and seasoned SIA pilot.

And after much waiting, preparations and security clearance, they are all set and ready to go!

Cameras ready!

And off we go!! Watch the video!

Due to parallel error, I thought the Porsche was so far leading ahead. But after viewing the vid, I’m convinced that both were very close at the finishing line.

The plane had to take off and land awhile later.

Congratulations to Porsche winning the race!

Oh ya, I lost So no lucky draw for me!
