On the Aki Nabalu Shoot!

February 13, 2010

Kong Eu, the actor.
In 2008 I got bitten by the acting bug. This was of course started from my numerous castings for TVCs since 2007 (and the voice-over work which started earlier)  – which then led to reading scripts and castings for acting roles. In Jul 08, I was casted to play the lead in the pilot [...]

And I thought Nov 09 was a busy month…what a hectic December it’s been!

A client of Jojo’s saw us perform at Stand Up! and liked it so much that we were asked to do a set at the launch of Playboy fragrance at Heritage!

November 10, 2009

Oct 09 had been a month of ups and downs…a couple of very high ups but also some related disappointments and pressure from a few different sources. But what better way to cap up Oct and to welcome in the Pig month (which officially started Nov 7) than this charity event that Jojo invited me to be a [...]

October 24, 2009

Day: Fri, Oct 16, 2009 (night).
They had a emcee (don’t know him but the kind that can rattle on non-stop and has that radio DJ style of speaking) to warm-up the crowd. He came out 2 times (the actual emcee was VJ Utt, who, to be honest, did a barebones, minimum job in introducing Carrie [...]
