On the Friday, 10th December 2010, Wacoal had a special event. It is called Wacoal 62 – Come Fly With Me. Well, since it’s a Wacoal I bet that most people would know what kind of event. I got in touch with the representative from Wacoal as I was invited to this event and here they present to me an invitation card. First of all I would love to thank Jerad for extending the invitation to me.

Looking at the invitation, the only thing I required to do was to dress in a formal suit. Since it’s going to be an elegant cocktail function and the theme was Masquerade Night. After arriving in Le Meridien hotel located near KL Sentral, I proceeded taking photos of the runway that’s going to be fashion show for the guests. Yes, best time to take the location of the runway is way before everyone starts going into the hotel.

As can be seen, the runway and the seating are limited thus I have to make full use of my time here. Before all things started, it’s best to go around snapping pictures of the area and also of course, the food.

Ice cream? Or something that looks like ice cream but it’s actually wafer.

Seeing the decorations on the food also makes me hungry.

So I can’t stand it. I just have to take a whole picture of food galore. I am after all a person who loves food.

HEY!!! What about the fashion show? Why still dragging this thing on and on. Just hold your horses, we’ll come right back to that in a short while. Let me tell you something, I would be doing 2 posts for this, so I am sure you people guys especially out there would be able to get more to see from this event. What’s so special about it?

I think this post will be the most BRASSERIE photos ever.

GREEN PASTEL COLOR FLORAL BRA

A Green or Cyan Floral Pattern Bra on Display inside a clear box. Surprisingly it looks like a bikini. Based on the photo, I can feel that it has underwire.

CUTE PINK RIBBON BRA

Seriously this one caught my eye. No no no.. not because of it’s color but the simplicity of the design. The ribbon there makes it stunning and the floral patters are simple.

By the way, I am still clueless on what this means on the label around the bra strap. I would guessed that the 75 means the measurement of the bust and the ‘C‘ is for the cup size. Someone who knows this, can they lend me a helping hand.

Hey… what the heck am I giving my opinions on bra. The girls should know better right? Please ignore me. So let’s go on to our main event. “Finally huh“. Yes, presenting to you the beautiful emcee for the night.

Parfage, Moi Cree neo, Sorci and Sensuala would be the highlight of the night. Well, the emcee, Stephanie Chai was a stunning figure for that night too. Of course there was a welcome address by the Executive Director too to address the guest that night. Finally the ever beautiful voluptuous Stephanie Chai initiated the start of the show. While everyone was anticipating the start of the fashion show, something else was planned.

The violin greeting party was here. The music was impressive and got me entertained for the whole duration.

After what seemed to be quite awhile, the lights grew dim and finally what all the guest has been waiting for is going to start. For this you have to see my next post………………..

Of course NOT! Let’s get on with this. For the first show of underwear is from Wacoal Parfage.

Spotty Type Panties and Bra and Garter Belt and Leggings

Bright Red Panties and Bra with Red Garter Belt and Leggings.

Yellow Mellow Panties and Bra

Green Pastel Brasserie

Somehow this is the only Asian model on the stage I guess. Doubt anyone of them is Malaysian as knowingly Malaysian models hardly model for lingerie (rather they expect higher pay when they do so. Just a speculation okay!! )

Simple Pink Flowery Brasserie and matching Pink Panties

Black Brasserie and Matching Black Panties

Amazing isn’t it? Lingerie turns into fashion these days. Ever wondered whatever happened to those yester years during our father’s time where underwear or lingerie should be worn inside and not for display. Of course, I am sure most of you still wear them inside. The only one I can think of who wears them outside is Super Girl? Hahahaha!! LAME. Well, but why the design?

First and foremost, after many insights and questioning and pondering and net searching (Ahemzzz..), clothes or anything one puts on defines a person. When someone dresses herself/himself to look good, it sometimes make them brew with confidence. Wacoal is doing that and is suitable for all type of sizes as can be seen from the photos above.

So, is that it?

Nope, you have just only seen the collection from Wacoal Parfage. Have you forgotten about the rest of them? There are still Moi Cree neo, Sorci and Sensuala left. I am sure most of you haven’t.

As time is getting short, I will portray the next post with an array of photos of the girls in lingerie. Well, I am sure Wacoal would love to promote all their lingerie and I am doing them a favor and also doing my viewers a favor.

Is this the end? Of course not. Do check back sometime tomorrow or a few days later.

I just came back from Penang Island after running the Penang Bridge International Marathon 2010 event. Well, the event did go as planned. Something to talk about and to share my experiences there.

The collection was done at Queensbay Mall area and I can see some familiar faces. Well, I see familiar faces but look at what Kyuzo was looking at.

AHEM AHEM!!!

I was there along with Kyuzo and staying at a church member’s house. Well, both of us ran the 21km which I find that I am lacking training and considering this is one of the major events, I decided to run for it even though only ran 5km in the past 3 months with other days doing just sleeping and eating.

We arrived on Saturday in the morning about 11am and decided it’s time to look for some food before we continue elsewhere. So after taking all those photos of the collection counter and meeting up with some of the runners, we’re off for some food hunting. Chin Ann was the one who drove us around. First we had Beef Noodles. Then we had the famous Teochew Cendol or Chendul at Penang Road.

The Chendul only cost RM1.80. Hmmm… somehow it was to quench my thirst. Since while we’re here, why not take the drive to another place. Let’s have some coconuts.

CHOP CHOP CHOP… Now here is your coconut. Surprisingly, met a blogger KokAhKok there. Well or he was the one who was checking me out. Ahem…

What a hot hot day in Penang Island. After that we all retire back to our resting place and slept early as the run will start at 3am. Now let’s get back to the run.

The run started at 3AM. There are lots of people at the run. Cinya late, we can’t reach the starting point in time for the gun shot. Well, we ran from the road and upon reaching the starting point, walao… cinya many people there. All still queuing to the starting point. In the end after the gun shot, I went past the starting point 4 minutes after. Kyuzo paced me as we try to break free from the slower than usual runners.

Amazingly, I was amazed that I could withstood 6km of non stop running along with Kyuzo. Well, it was near the bridge and after running for awhile, I decided I had enough as I was afraid my body could not bear the amount of work put on it. What was worst was that the heavy rain makes it harder to run with the cold win and your stomach seems hard to digest.  Sure enough, after completing the run in a time of 2:46:47, I could feel my leg not relaxed and aching.

This is the result of my run in PBIM 2010 21KM

Hmmm…. Position number 1869 from the point of the gun shot. 02:51:36 is the time from the gun shot and 02:46:47 is my chip time.

Not bad since it betters the 21km timing of the KL Half Marathon (though it seems that it’s not 21km but 25km). It’ll be a long way before I can break below 2 hours 30 minutes.

Distance: 22.22 km
Pace: 7.32 min/km
Time: 2.47.18
Total Climb: 600 m

My Split Time: 6:00 | 6:43 | 7:29 | 7:03 | 6:49 | 6:39 | 7:00 | 7:02 | 6:18 | 8:16 | 8:07 | 8:10 | 8:11 | 7:13 | 7:24 | 7:56 | 7:54 | 8:17 | 7:43 | 9:04 (Crap!!) | 7:59 | 8:18

After looking at my timing, I realized I have slowed down a lot compared to previous runs. I need my stamina back and the urge to push myself faster. So all I need is more practice.

So it’s time for some photos with the gang.

Hmmm… yes, I looked constipated. I was superbly tired after the run, I just knew I had to take a super sleep after that. Of course, it was great meeting one of the shouters. Charles Kee from IMChuckie.

Taken using my HTC Hero, that’s the best photo I’ve gotten.

What about other victory poses? Still waiting for some photos from Sook Mei though. Till my next run which is I would think it’ll be likely the following year 2011. Want to join the run? Just message me or come for a run sometime soon.

Penang Bridge Marathon is coming up again. This time it will be on the 21st November 2010. Finally I will be running in this run after putting it off for a few years. Though I will be running in the 21km. A few days before I will be leaving to Penang, I got the package from the organizers.

Not bad considering the vest is in yellow. The reason is fairly simple, DiGi is the sponsor of this event and thus we 21km Half Marathon runners will be running in bright yellow. Makes me feel like the Yellow Man from DiGi. Wondering how does the vest feel since it’s from New Balance, I decided to put it on.

Darn… looks like the measurement is unlike the Reebok one which somehow fits perfectly well. It has an opening quite big around the armpits and the arm. You don’t see my head here and I am just focusing on the vest. Besides I just cut my hair, so ain’t gonna reveal how I looked like yet after the hairdo. If you are in Penang Island and saw me running along the road, remember to say Hi and we can do some catching up together. I think I will be able to finish the run within 3 hours so I should finish about 5am in which most people are not up yet.

Training for only once a week just 2 weeks ago is not going to put me into perfect shape for a faster timing. Anyway, let’s see how far it can go. Besides I am a night person. Till then, I’ll be updating more frequently.

It was Pinktober last month and unlike others, it was a charity event which I have gone to check out with Yen at Solaris Dutamas.

Since most of the stuffs are girls stuff and it’s Pink October (they usually associate this with Breast Cancer awareness), there is definitely bound to be girl’s stuff.

That is something which I don’t use and I can’t use. Of course, since it’s girls stuff, there are loads and loads of things Yen could buy. Yay for her. Well, amazed to see that there are live band there.

So what is a guy like me who is there got to do that day? Here’s the result.

Not bad eh. The looks are pretty almost the same. I always say, “Whoa look like Bruce Lee!!” She says, “Where got le, only look like my dear Daniel”. Awwwwwwww…..

Time to relive the life of what has been happening just a few weeks ago at Luna Bar. There was a Vaseline Party and I was there with my dear Yen. Well, she got the invites. So seeing that it was getting late, I proceeded to shoot some photos of the event.chia

Little did I know was that there was a pool in between the stage and the crowd. Sad case, just when I left my zoom lens at home. Anyway have to make do with an UWA and a portrait lens. For those who are still clubbing they would have known, but for someone like me who has long past the age of the clubbing scene, I didn’t know.

Strange right, why would guys go to a Vaseline party? Well, looks like Vaseline can be used by both guys and girls but I somehow have this thing against using beauty products. Well, during my time in school, we used to call guys that used beauty and skin care products sissy guys. Those days, image was brought upon to the likes of Rambo, Samurai and the rugged bearded features. Those days, watching television you’ll see heroes all looking like that.

Fast forward to the present, now we don’t even see those kind of guys anymore being portrayed with the occasion of Rocky Balboa and Rambo making a comeback but now we get is metrosexual guys who wants to have clear fair skin. Seriously I couldn’t understand why the sudden change. Anyway that should be another topic. Talking about the event, lucky there was the lovely Jojo Struys to be the emcee for the night.

This photo was cropped from very far and lucky it turned out well. Well, later you’ll get more photos of Jojo Struys.

Of course, with a person like Jojo Struys on the stage, all the guys’ eyes were on her. Even girls were not spared.

Wondering who is that? Wonder no more.

From left: Me, Timothy Tiah and Dear Yen

The only photo I have with Timothy, co-founder of Nuffnang. (I know the photo lighting is bad *sobs*) Remember the photo before this, that’s none other than Dearest Yen. Anyway Nuffnang was the one who gave us the opportunity to go for this event. Definitely a big thank you to you boss Stewie.

In this Vaseline party, met up with lots of bloggers and friends. Glad to meet up with you people. Unlike previously where I was superbly active in attending events and activities, I am now becoming more dormant, preferably sitting at home or having my teh tarik with friends at the local mamak. Must be the sign of getting older and older.

Anyway, recently I have appeared lesser and lesser in my own blog, that’s because I am the one holding the camera most of the time. That’s just made it better because now I would have my hands busy taking photos of people especially Princess Yen.

Taken from the stairs. This is the statue of Luna?

Of course, we have guest artiste performing at this event. Yuna went up and sang a few songs including catchy hits like “Cinta Hari Raya” which is one of my favorite songs that night.

The only decent photo with a 50mm and shot at f4. As it was getting dark, that’s the best I could do to get a photo of her and the band. Of course, here’s one close shot of her with Yen.

Of course, last but not least, during the start of the show, we have the crowd lighten up a bit with the appearance of Quah Jen Han.

Quah Jen Han cracked me up with his jokes. Not bad, I love his jokes.

All in all what an event it was at Luna Bar. Well, looking back, I am now wondering where did all those Vaseline go at my home that I got from the goodie bag.

Of course, finally got to meet with ShaolinTiger (since he was the official photographer) and took a photo with him.

Darn I look like a small kid next to him.

To sign off, it’s time to end this with a photo before we go.

DanielCtw and Yen signing off with KLCC at the background. Thanks to Shaolin Tiger for taking this shot for me.
