Best of Seoul 2013
This was my fourth time on a fully expense paid trip to Seoul. Yay!!

The first three times were for representing Singapore as the Starcraft 1 / 2 champion. This time it was for my travel portal along with some of the top bloggers from S.E.A and it was wayyyyyyyy better because they took us all around Seoul for 5 days shopping, sight seeing and nom noming our way to nirvana.

We had an amazing time, always love visiting Korea. If you'd like a sneak peek into the culture have a look at this... [Read More]

Ritz-Carlton Singapore Staycation!

The best hotel service we've experienced ever. 6 star service! I wonder if its the same throughout the world or just in Singapore.

I was quite proud of myself for discovering how to create an artificial depth of field effect (blurry background) purely by using premiere. (Start of video) Then i realised that oh shit the subject cannot move LOL oh well too late.

I also did a time lapse thing at the end.. the singapore flyer isn't supposed to move so fast check out the ships... [Read More]

"Morgan Freeman" reads TSL reviews

Today I tried a new video marketing campaign with my Singapore review site. I wonder how it will go...

Found a talented voice actor who does Morgan Freeman impersonations lol! And got him to read like a .. cheerful instagraming girl's review so the contrast is quite funny. The place being reviewed is a cafe in Singapore..

Which voice actor should I get next? Who do you wanna... [Read More]

Theatre in Singapore
The theatre scene in Singapore is experiencing quite the attention these days. One of my favourite Singapore actors Adrian Pang, recently set up his very own theatre company 'Pangdemonium!' with his wife Tracie to inject a bit of fun and his own style into the theatre scene.

For those in Singapore interested in theatre - (lol at pple going crazy at $150 boring phantom of the opera tickets), Pangdemonium! are running their version of the Pulitzer Prize winning musical called 'Next To Normal'... [Read More]

Maldives Holiday

Finally done with our recap at W Maldives Retreat & Spa! It was easily the best holiday we have ever been on. Parts of the video were filmed when my gopro who's lens had fogged up after being in the water. So there are times when it isn't so clear. Omg

Hope you like the video! After this its just more Singapore hotels. Make this your next stop! (After IEM... [Read More]

Staycation at W Singapore
Staycations are a big thing because here in Singapore as we can't drive inter-state for a quick getaway or go on road trips. So what end up doing is staying at a hotel and pretending we are overseas somewhere.

Here are some video highlights of my recent stay at W Singapore! Staring Chloe as the lead actress lol.


Recently we went on an all expense paid holiday cruise to Phuket / Langkawi thanks to TSL. It was an amazing experience! I made this video of our Phuket stopover.. Which i think is the most interesting for you guys since everyone wants to go to Thailand. Some even stay there forever. Hi Strafe!

There are also two other videos about the ship and langkawi, a malaysian holiday island.

Phuket is easily the most commercialized place we've been too. If you're thinking of going... [Read More]

My NA ladder experience
Being off racing as terran a lot recently on NA, probably the most i've played in a long time. hots is really fun especially since they are so many different strategies now and the skill curve went way up. its like a whole different game now.

And yes i finally left the sheltered world of sea and got to experience some brutal NA manners first hand. I find stuff like this hilarious and it makes playing on NA even more fun. At the end of games you're just excitingly waiting to see which way... [Read More]

Camcorder Advice
Video making seems so fun!

I am thinking of buying a camcorder to use in documentary / guide travel videos I will be making. Of course I will be using it on holidays and SC2 events too! The video function on my dslr was really terrible, looked low quality and took up so much space. Any advice?

I am leaning towards the black HERO3 now and will probably be getting it if nobody has any other recommendations. This video made by it looks amazing.
