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]
We had an amazing time in Malaysia recently. I especially loved GEORGETOWN in Penang! I wonder if there is a minon craze in Australia too. Probably not lol.
Anyway you can win hotel stays with Shangri-La by taking part in their instagram contest.
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]
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]
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]
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]
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 flew over to culturally rich Jogja (known to foreigners as Yogyakarta) in Indonesia for a short holiday. The best thing about it were the two UNESCO sites, Borobudur and Prambanan - both architectural marvels in their own right. The former being one of the largest Buddhist Temples in the world and the later an Hindu influenced series of temples dedicated to the Trimurti gods.
We also went to a famous street in the heart of the city called Malioboro which even had a horse carriage... [Read More]
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]
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]
a bunch of videos I have been making lately. been experimenting with some stuff and im finding video making quite fun! just invested in some more gear.
Oh and see how many Singaporean SC2 players you can spot here hahaha!
While everyone was rushing to complete single player, i decided instead to complete the multiplayer campaign.
Ok back to retirement now!
p.s i think highest placement is platinum. after that you will get promoted to diamond, then masters.
p.p.s discovered a broken protoss build ahahah... [Read More]
A bit late but here they are!! This is to remind me of the progress I need to make over the year. And also to share a bit of my life. I think im going to be very busy this year. there is little starcraft content so don't read it if you're going to be bored!
Work
1. SC2SEA - my major goal for sc2sea this year is to open up a LoL portal which our members can use and easily switch in between. since so many gamers play both games theres bound to be good synergy. I love our community and... [Read More]
Today was my first time making a video and uploading it on youtube.
Starring EscapisT & nirvAnA.
Youtube features look really good this is going to be fun as we go around making videos of the best places in Singapore. Still have a long way to go with video editing, any tips are appreciated.
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.
This is a semi-long read and my opinions and might come across as too drastic to some but these are at the moment what I believe is needed to further grow the scene. Its growing well yes, but it can be better. When I talk about "growing eSports" I refer to growing the Starcraft 2 industry as a whole. Not the small subset of top players or any specific state.
1. Invest more in accessible mainstream media
Community's Part
This is what gets new blood. Why? Because it makes the game... [Read More]
Appreciation can make a day, even change a life.
Your willingness to put it into words is all that is necessary. - Margaret Cousins
Thank you for steaks and milkshakes random cow.
Not but seriously, that quote is awesome and I wanted to share it. There are always two ways to look at things. One is destructive while the other adds value. You may feel the satisfaction of getting some thing of your chest, feeling important by telling people "I told you so" or flexing that epeen but thats
Another blog with more random thoughts from me. This will be about NaNiWa, hot girls and why they are similar in regards to them both having relative high value. And why they are able to get away with certain behavior otherwise normal people cannot. Warning, its quite a long read!! Its gonna be my last blog for a while.
Value
Like it or not, everyone is subconsciously judged and pegged with a value. I personally dislike this but have come to accept this is just the way things are.... [Read More]
