Launch of DIMENSIONS by Maxis and Astro
Nov 13th
Alright here it is!! Malaysia’s first ever made for mobile sci-fi series. Sounds pretty cool eh? But hmmm, made for mobile? How many Malaysians out there have mobile phones that can view videos?
Anyways, i was at the launch of this very series yesterday night at Sheraton Hotel Kuala Lumpur thanks to Esther Teo of FH Communications for the invitation
So yea, there were quite a lot of cameras flashing around with media people doing their job at the launch.
On the night itself, they showed us the very first episode of the series DIMENSIONS which is limited at 5 minutes per episode for each episode in the series. Here are some info about the series itself.
About DIMENSIONS.
Created exclusively for 3G and Online platforms – Dimensions is an interactive adventure filmed entirely on location in and around Kuala Lumpur. Fast-paced and intense, this 11-episode mobile series and sci-fi thriller reinvents the myths and legends of Malaysia, and lures audiences from the streets of KL into the 130 million year old rainforest that surrounds and dissects it, amongst ancient spirits of animist tales.
So yea that’s about it. I do not know what’s the purpose of this whole thing but it is something new and people always like new things, perhaps it would turn out into something bigger? Involving more stuffs maybe?
Of course we could speculate all kind of outcome, but only Astro/Maxis will know about it then and time will tell.
If you’ve read about my previous post here, then you’ll know there was a lucky draw after that and well, 2 Iphone 3GS up for grabs and it went to 2 bloggers who’s…
…like not so happy about it, the cast of the series are even more happy than them in the picture above Lolx. Okay la maybe they were too shock winning the Iphone itself. Right?
well, it’s obvious that Nigel’s magic didn’t work that night, rubbing the lucky ticket number on him didn’t work at all. Maybe too much people did it that the luck were distributed evenly among us. Sob. Haha.
So here it is!
To subscribe, SMS ON DS to 22900 or you could visit www.dimensions.com.my to get your eyes on the series itself.
Are you excited about it?
I don’t know about you but for me i’m interested in seeing how would this would “NEW” thing turn out. I hope that Astro/Maxis do have surprises for us then! =)
Cheers!

Resume For Blogging Job
Aug 20th
Here i am writing a blog post that’s related to the recruitment of an Official blogger for a TV reality television series.
From the requirements, i would say that i definitely fit in.
I can commit for a total of 4 months in Singapore, i’m fluent in both English and Chinese and i can blog more than 80 blog posts in the period given!
Let me just share what i’ve done thus far with my blog.
I’ve been fortunate enough to get invited to Media events which involves big companies such as Canon, Nokia, Hennessy, Coca-Cola and not forgetting; I was one of the affiliated blogger for Comic Fiesta 2008.
Besides that, i’ve also blogged about various events, from music events, dance events to clubbing ones, concerts. I truly enjoy blogging these stuffs as I get to give my readers not only my personal opinion but also a clearer picture of an event.
Sometimes, i will add some self compiled videos to make my post more appealing. Videos examples here MINT Magazine Launch, LG Malaysia Blog Launch, Tiger Stand Out Party & the recent Eason’s Moving on Stage 26 Concert.
Following a few reality series such as Malaysian Dream Girl 1 & 超级星光大道 of Taiwan and etc along the years blogging about it as an audience, being so, i believe i have a few valuable thoughts and insight to share with the people behind the scene.
Last but not least, i’ve made lot of friends through blogging where i love meeting people and i would love to work with the people behind the scene getting more experience.
I hope that I can take my blogging experience a step further and get this job as HPSpace’s official blogger as I’ll do my best!
Thanks. =)
Japanese Drama Buzzer Beat Best!!
Aug 18th
Along the years i’ve follow lots of drama/series including the ones produced by the people at Hong Kong, Taiwan, Japan, Korea and US as well. There are different types of storyline with different time line and history background and such. Some i quit watching after a few episodes where some i’ll follow closely and i actually find myself really attracted to a certain type of drama/series. The ones that are related to basketball.
MVP 情人 My MVP Valentine
篮球部落 Basketball Tribe
斗牛要不要 Bull Fighting
篮球火 Hot Shot
Other than One Tree Hill which have a span of a few seasons already which i felt lazy to follow from the start, i’ve watch a few basketball related drama/series which includes the ones shown above where 3 of them are from Taiwan and 1 from China. Lolx
Then, just yesterday, i found this new drama Buzzer Beat from Japan which is related to basketball as well. Immediately i added all the latest 5 episodes into my download list and finished it all today. I actually find this one very interesting with a much better storyline with not-so-fake basketball moves.
*all of the drama shown above have lots of scenes that look extremely fake and the storyline is just so so only.
Do watch the video above about the japanese series Buzzer Beat.
Other than that, there’s a very complicated relationship among the characters in this drama. There’s this girl who’s an artistic person with an ambition being a violinist being in a relationship with the coach but secretly like one of the players. There’s this another girl who cheated on his boyfriend sleeping with another player in the same basketball team. Complicated No?
I enjoyed watching the series thus far with more episodes coming out each Monday, yes its not finish yet and i hope there will be more scenes of basketball games though some of the actors sucked in playing lolx but at least the way on how they film it is good and its not THAT fake.
and ah, one of the leading actress in this series, Keiko Kitagawa 北川景子 acted in an international film before!!
acting as Reiko in Tokyo Drift xD.
Well if you’re like me who’s interested in basketball related drama/series, do try out this one.
BUZZER BEAT!!

Iron Chef Anyone?
Nov 21st
Since ages ago, there are lots of cooking television program that serves as guides to those viewers at home. One well known program which is similar in Malaysia is “Chef Wan” and thats many years back.
And along the years, these cooking program have evolved in some ways. Such programs, most of them that gets attention from a big range of viewers are the ones with competitions, dramas and there are different themes each episodes.
Of all these kind of entertainment/education television programs, i only followed one closely before. The one that was aired in Hong Kong that features different female artist each episodes where the few female artists will compete and come out with the best dish according to theme.
The lady iron chef (美女廚神) is the name and that whole series went on for only 2 seasons if i’m not mistaken. Of course, that show is more towards entertainment purpose where i watch because of the various Hong Kong artists featured.
and do you know one of the earliest “cooking drama” television show that have made a name can be traced back to 1993 and its from Japan. Iron Chef Japan is one of the most famous cooking show that have gathered a large amount of viewers and fans all over the world and America even adapted the series and came out with Iron Chef America.
Anyway, Asian Food Channel, the region’s only 24-hour food channel dedicated to airing the best food and lifestyle programming from around the region and around the world will be bringing Iron Chef in and airing it on AFC.
AFC will be featuring competition between some of the world’s greatest chefs as they compete against each other in the over-the-top Kitchen Stadium.
So, for the foodies around that some of them might be a die hard fan of Iron Chef, this should be a good news for them!

超級星光大道第四季 林鴻鳴 – 大驚小怪
For the past few days, i have been catching up with the past few episodes of 超級星光大道 Season 4. Stopped for a while last time because i thought that it was NOT SO NICE already for God knows what reason till my friend told me it is still watchable.
On the other hand, i always have problem with songs that have shoutings and screamings.
and just last week episode of 超級星光大道S4, this contestant Ling Hong Ming (林鴻鳴) sang this song below and it blew me off and i can actually accept it…
