KICK 08 - 24 hrs Non-stop Endurance Fitness Kickboxing Challenge

Okay, I'm here to do a personal favour for a friend, Thai Boxing Girl who has been into Kickboxing for sometime... This time, she and her other 7 mates are so determined to set a Malaysian Book of Records at least and to RAISE some fund for Breast Cancer Welfare Association. Please give them your warmest support and/or help to raise the fund.

Below is a note from Thai Boxing Girl:

*************************************************************************************
Dear Friends,

This August, me and my team-mate - 8 females, will be attempting a 24 hours non-stop endurance fitness kickboxing challenge for entry into the Malaysian Book of Records (MBOR) and possibly the GUINNESS World Book of Records, to raise funds for the Breast Cancer Welfare Association.

The event is K!CK! 2008, formerly known as the "Jak Othman Kickboxing Challenge", a community-driven initiative spear-headed by the sole-proprietor establishment Jak Othman Kickboxing Studio introduced in 2004.

Objective is to to educate the public, especially our youths and ladies, the importance of engaging in intriguing and fun sports, such as fitness kickboxing, for a healthier and fulfilling lifestyle, while learning an effective self-defence technique.

Our team is made up of our youngest member, a 13 Secondary One student to our oldest member, a 30 years old working Mother (ME!!!), to challenge the 'impossible mission' of executing 57,200 kicks within 24 hours (average of 40 kicks/min) to break a new record in the books.

While, we, the determined and sporty ladies are pushing our physical limits and mental strengths to a new level, we are also targeting to raise RM25,000 for Breast Cancer Welfare Association, our Official Beneficiary, in support of its advocacy work.

As such, I would like to request for your support (media, corporate, or individual), via the following:

1. Pledge-A-Kick - Pledge RM10 for every kick our team-members will be kicking!

2. Public donation at event - one will receive a "KICK START" guidebook that provides basic crime awareness tips and defence techniques illustration for quick releases from offenders.

3. Pre-event media coverage to create awareness amongst the public and drive crowd to the event on:

Date: 29th & 30th August 2008 (Friday & Saturday)
Time: 10am (29th Aug) to 2pm (30th Aug)
Venue: To be confirmed

Proposed Interview Angle:

An inspirational article to motivate youths and females to persevere in times of challenges, be it personal or professional, as well as creating awareness for Kickboxing as a form of effective self-defence sport.

On behalf of my team, we hope we can receive kind assistance from everyone to contribute to this charitable cause.

For further information and assistance, please contact me at xhosa29@yahoo.com.


Thank you.
Thai Boxing Mama

Picture of the Kickboxing girls who's gonna kick the ass! =)

In the Dark Alley

“Hey, ready? What you doing there?! Come here!”

“Wait, wait, wait!! Do we have to do this? Are you serious?”

“Don’t worry, I promise you’ll enjoy it and just relax, okay?”

“Really? But where are we going? And…”

“Jeees…! Just come with me!”

Suspicious stare from the moonlight and the clouds were whispering. Suddenly, a dark shadow passes by. Footsteps stopped and heartbeats getting louder than ever.

“What now?!” said an impatient voice.

“GOSH! Did you see that?”

“What?”

“Something just passed by…” pointing to the opposite direction.

“Stop it! This is not funny… just stop freaking me out.”

“It’s a GORILLA!! I wonder where did it come from… who you think it is?”

“CUT!! What’s with the Gorilla?!” said the director with a serious face.

Everyone broke into laughter as they looked behind.

More updates soon on Nuffnang Wild "Live" Party with Maxis Broadband! See how everyone got so WILD!! =)

Corbis Futsal Cup 2008

Usually during weekends, I will just spend my time watching DVDs at home... ya, I'm so lazy that I will just tar pau some food nearby and eat in front of the TV set (very sad huh?! I don't think so...). Last Saturday was a lil bit different! I went to Corbis Futsal Cup 2008 - an inter agency futsal competition by Corbis at Sports Planet, Subang Grand... AT 8.30AM!! Well, just to give "Some Playing Futball Dudes" a lil support.

The "Some Playing Futball Dudes" getting ready

The "Some Playing Futball Dudes" + 1 more on the way - before the battle

This is my 1st time attending this event and it's also the first time "Some Playing Futball Dudes" joined this competition. I was kinda surprised that quite a number of people were already in their "army" suits and preparing to start the "battle". There were a total of 24 teams will be down to the battleground!! Semangat-nya! :D

Met this bubbly girl, Alison from Corbis. She came over to say "Hi", told us to get ourselves registered and wish the team good luck!! Upon registration, each and every of us will get a goodie bag... My breakfast - a pack of Cheezels from the goodie bag...
(p/s: Will update you what's in the goodie bag!)

Soldiers from different "clans" gathered together for briefing session

Briefing session with the referees

Around 10.00AM, the game got started after the briefing session with the referees. "Some Playing Futball Dudes" started their battle with "Ogilvy FC"- Netherlands. It was a very fast game and being the newbies, the boys got a lil "kan cheong" (panic attack) ... Ogilvy FC won with 2 - 0.

"Eh! Where is the bola?! Where?"


"Taaadahhh! See I got the ball! *kick*

While waiting for the 2nd game, the "Commander" came. "So how, boys?!" ask the Commander. His question was answered with smiles from the boys. "Well, fair enough. It's the 1st time and you guys need to start planning and get prepared for next year." "Yes, Sir!" answered the dudes.

The "Commander" & "Some Playing Futball Dudes" watching other teams battling

The battle continued and "Some Playing Futball Dudes" VS "LBFC". The "Some Playing Futball Dudes" labeled "LBFC as das Deutschland as they are kinda strong team. Same like Ogilvy FC, they have been training as a team consistently... In the end, "Some Playing Futball Dudes" lost to "LBFC" das Deutschland by 3 - 0. The dudes will need to catch up and get the balls kicking.

Hahhh... you wanna score goal? I wanna block you!! :)


Hahaha... Resting or getting ready to kick their balls?! ;P

Observing and waiting for their last round against "The Misfits"

Last but not least, "Some Playing Futball Dudes" VS "The Misfits" le France. Well after losing the first 2 games, "Some Playing Futball Dudes" finally went in with "TODAY WE'LL DIE IN HELL" spirit - from the movie 300. Hahaha... well seriously, they played better and won by 2 - 0.

The dudes playing some strategies to keep the enemy away!


"Wahhh!! Don't pray pray!! We need to score more goals... Now 1 jug not enough!!"

After the the battle to qualify, here come the Cheerleading performance by O&M. Hehe.. Talk less, let the pictures tell you the story... Use your imagination too... Blek!

The O&M Cheerleaders & Ogilvy FC dudes


"1, 2, 3, 4...C'mon and shake with me!" :D


"Come let's make some shape and make them scream!" lolx


Pose, Pose & pose!!! weeee!

After finish watching the qualifying round, I felt hungry still after eating the lunchbox provided, plus a bit sleepy (major factor)... So left around 2ish while others stayed and waited for the result. Saya nak balik tido! (I wanna go home to sleep!)

Buh-bye! :) hehe... no picture of me cos I was the one and only photographer they have!

Taaaa DAaahhh.....



A cut and bruise on my hip! I didn't realise it on that night itself and I thought it was just a knock on the edge of the sink...But when I woke up the next morning... I felt how come I got this on my hip....I was like "WTF?? One knock like that can cause a cut!" =(
Well, Steph is okay... I don't blame you but I have a scar to remember you =)

It's My L.U.C.K.Y Day!

Over the weekend, I have so much thoughts running through my mind lately...
I hate the fact that I'm too free, got nothing else better to do... That's when all the thoughts come! Too much until I started questioning myself, have doubts on my own capabilities and decision. I hate to make decision cos I'm afraid that it might go wrong and it may not turn out in the way I wanted it to be.
If you do read this blog, you will know that I'm beginning my studies by end of July...
After 2 years, where will I be? Kick start my career in an agency / company and achieve what I want in life? or just go on like everybody else like "You will have to work for the rest of your life".

Well, long way to go... I dun wanna think about it anymore now because until the end of today, I'm still a happy and lucky girl cos I know there I will always have people who really cares for me.

1. Mummy msged me and give me the support and encourage me... Thanks, Mummy!
   
2. Received a call from my very close + good buddy who came all the way from Singapore to look for me during lunch, chit-chat a lil.
   
3. After lunch, another friend of mine heard that I'm sad earlier, he sent me an "Ice-Cream Day" e-greeting card to cheer me up!!
   
4. Then, it is another surprise call from my lovely cousin came down from Genting to see me and we had a fabulous dinner!
   
5. Before I got yo reach home, I got a call from my group of babis to go yam cha at William's.
   

Don't you feel that I'm very lucky today?! I'm so glad that I always have these people around me, especially mummy!! I love all of them and of course others who really gave me the support when I in need of it! I appreciate all of you! It is very hard for me to express it in words but deep down my heart "I really love you all!"

Happy Birthday to You

Just a very short note to someone special:

Dear You,

Even you are now miles away and I knew you may not read this but still I wanna say these to you!

“Happy Birthday to you”

and

"I love you always!"

In my heart, you are always special to me and I miss you so much. I know that I’m always against whatever you said and I fought and yelled. That moment, I was just standing for myself and I hate it so much when we fight! Even you knew that most of the time I will just ignore watever you said but you will always remind me. Most important thing, you always stand by me!

When I’m stressed out or sad, you are the only one now I can cry to and scream out everything I kept inside. You will listen and give me some pointers as my guide to move on strongly. Till today, I realized that how much I miss you and care for you… It makes me feel so sorry for my previous act. I’m sorry for what I did to you. I wanna thank you for everything you’ve done for me! Wo hen ai ni ("I love you very much" in chinese)! Mwahhh…. Thanks for every thing!

From, your little girl with lots of love =)

Hennessy Artistry The Global Art of Mixing @ Aloha

Yes! I attended the Hennessy Artistry Tour 2008 at Aloha last Saturday, 31st May. This is the 2nd Hennessy Artistry Global Tour I went in Year 2008, this event was previously held at Zouk on 18th April. Thanks for the VIP invites from Nicholas of Nuffnang! All the noobs had fun there!

On that night, they had Pamela (from Amazing Race Asia Season 2) as MC of the night. Of course, PointBlanc was first to kick of the party followed by Bangkok Invaders and VJ Callen. Personally, Bangkok Invaders was my favourite of the night (I still have a lil support for the locals!). They really rock!!! A little about my last visit to Bangkok, I was there when Bangkok Invaders was performing at this club called Route66, RCA! I enjoyed it so much... like Happy Feet?! Hahaha... It just like adrenaline rush, suddenly you became so hyperactive and can't stop moving!!

Other than the performance, of course there were whole bunch of us there together up at the 3rd floor enjoying the free flow Hennessy City Cocktails - Miami, Shanghai, Paris, Moscow. Here are the pictures from various people! Enjoy!

Michael, Steph, KY, Me, Steph Kok, Simon

UPDATE::
** A reminder from KY, Thanks!

On that night, since it was a free flow of course all of us enjoyed it to the fullest... I could say that Steph K enjoyed it the M-O-S-T ;) Okay, to be fair she was there early than most of us and some of our friends (Mummy taught us not to take strangers drinks) kept bringing back more drinks for everyone...
After a while, Steph came to me a few times and told me "I'm so H-I-G-H now! Hahaha...". Later on I went to the ladies, Steph was in there. "Hey!" coming to give a hug but she just went down suddenly!!

I got special treatment from our lovely Princess Steph... ;)
Guess wat it is?

P/s: KY, you're not allowed to guess cos you knew the answer!
