“May we remember this night, as we do each other, for the rest of our lives.” quote from grey

drink coke. hug coke.

on the coke side of life. nothing much I can talk about, I'm just doing some research.

Welcome to the coke side of life - it has been launched since 2006.
"It's a simple idea, really. Drinking a Coke makes people happy. It tastes good. And it's an invitation to live on the positive side of life. That's the message behind 'The Coke Side of Life,' a new global marketing platform for brand Coca-Cola, which launches in the U.S. this week and in other markets over the next several months."

"We live in a world where we make choices every day and The Coke Side of Life encourages people to make those choices positive ones," said Marc Mathieu, senior vice president for carbonated soft drink core brands, Marketing, Strategy and Innovation, The Coca-Cola Company. "This new campaign invites people to create their own positive reality, to be spontaneous, listen to their hearts and live in full color."

"Coca-Cola has always brought people together. Each of these 'Coke Side of Life' ads is about friends and families connecting and sharing," said Katie Bayne, chief marketing officer, Coca-Cola North America. "There is now considerable research that shows the tangible benefits of sharing meals together. We understand and believe in the value of coming together -- during the holidays and every day."

football on the coke side of life
Coca-Cola - an official sponsor of UEFA EURO 2008™ - has announced its management team for the tournament in Austria and Switzerland. The team, headed by general manager Frank van der Heijden, will grow into a family of several hundred people by the time the championship takes place in two summers' time.

The Coca-Cola Company has supported international football for more than 70 years, and is one of UEFA's longest-standing partners, having been an official sponsor of the UEFA European Championship since 1988.

and to hype the event, the campaign ideas should be as interesting or more interesting as these "virals" videos or more than just video



Came across some interesting websites:
It's nice that
Group Hug - Register with Group Hug to use those nice little HUG and SHRUG buttons over there. That’s how we figure out which confessions to put on the front page.
i have nothing

back walkover. i did it

For REAL and for the first time in my dear life.

I manage to do back walkover!! on my own. with my own legs and own arms. haha
no words can describe how it felt. too nice and fulfilled...
It is still at the beginning, more practises needed.

Can't show it here, just go to youtube and type "back walkover" :)

yeayyyyyyyyy yeayyyyyyyyyy yeayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!

metamorphosis dance concert poster

The committee commented that the previous design is for kindergarten kids performance. I was kind of speechless in the beginning. "something black or grey or brown?". All right that is what they meant by cool.

For me, metamorphosis is suppose to be the beginning of life and new look!
Was it suppose to be mysterious and dull?
I thought this is what they wanted, but after a while i changed my mind and made some changes on it.

I am not sure if you can see 2 people morphing into butterfly / vice versa. Just make sure you think it's cool ( for secondary school performance )

I don't want to complain, but people are just taking things for granted. I m working up til 2am in the morning. I want to quit.

this is the last time! no more!

i knew it. tired... need some rest

oh valentine's day

Happy Valentine's Day ? A day to remind me about my loved ones. I was more concerned about what my dad is buying for my mom. I mean, what will he surprise her, because I think she deserves it.
good enough? couple t-shirt, "SO CUTE" and the "You" and "Me" puzzle pendent.

I don't need roses or chocolate or pink iPod nano OR Tiffany & Co. Emerald-Cut Diamond, but I don't mind if there is a bonus for me :P

this was really something I thought of before, for myself, imagine my loved one does that to me.

:)

dance performance poster

As i promised to design a poster for my sister's co-curriculum dance concert / show.
here is the first complete draft, hopefully they will not need me to change it later on.


the concept is butterfly morphing into people and these group of people are the dancers presenting the performance.

new new new year

It is new year, and for chinese everything is about new new new. Head to toe, hair, clothes, nails, shoes, may be glasses, necklace, rings, last but not least, under garment. I am getting into the "trend", as well as things in red for chinese is symbolic of good fortune and happiness. So I got a totally red dress for the first day of Chinese New Year, my mom was quite surprise, as I never got anything like that before.

Asia is such a colorful place, the birds, the people and the food.

begining the year of the rat

This year is the first year that we celebrate the entire chiense new year in KL. As my grandma is not convenient to move on her own, so we did not have to go back to visit her in Tangkak, Johore. Currently she is staying with us.

Family and I visited the new year meeting as what we do normally on the first day of chinese new year.

spring, new year, celebration, good fortune, decoration

open house and lion dance at the neighbourhood

gong xi gong xi

spring clean

For the sake of Chinese New Year, I did what people normally do - tidy up my room.

This time, it means something to me. It is a new start. One year has gone, after I came back from New Zealand. I packed the things that I've brought back, these things are already been all over the place in my room for a year. Some were for display and they are still as display. Some are for use but I didn't finish up, as I didn't want to. Mainly are things that I don't need to use them here, and I am still seeing them everyday, such as? a half inch thick trench coat.

I admit that, it was because I didn't want to leave my memories behind. They were there to remind myself, to make myself missing what was there so much. In fact, there is nothing solid that I am really missing, it was just ended with some unwillingness plus some unhappy memories.

Hence, I resolute to clean up what I need to clean up, throw away what was supposed to throw, as a start of a new phase of life, use up what I was suppose to use up a year ago.

Winter clothes, jackets, knitted sweater, trench coat, scarfs, 2 pairs of boots, weighted 13kg.

Things that were always there for me, my beloved scented pillow and duvet.

I knew that I couldn't have been through those days without some of my friends that were there with me. Friends that I still see them as friends when some of them might not want me to be their friend or not willing to mention anything about me. I learned that what matters is to do the best for now, and I will not look back.

Heartily, I wish one day in the future, we will be friends again.


bye~!

your skin is your canvas

at first, I thought it would be some campaign about some anti-racist thing. After so much effort of putting people together, it is to tell us that our skin is amazing?

"Your skin is your canvas: it shows how active you are. The scars from when you are four tell the tale of how you've lived your life"

"Our skin is the most important thing we have. It's our biggest organ. Care for it the way you would care for anything else. Eat healthily, drink water and protect your skin."
Guess who?

However, I feel that the art direction of the ad is very nice, enjoyed how they shot the skin so close that I could see the beauty of human skin. The site is too simple and not too amazing. :P

live on the coke side of argh! ... almost there

I was very mad at the verification of the security code. argh! I spent almost 1 hour from that canvas to... one step close to my wallpaper.

As I was looking for some therapy, to balance my disturbance from what I have been suffering with. Came to this site, that I thought I can cure my emotion.

nicely done

security letters incorrect

I want my piece of artwork! The name of my artwork was supposed to be called "Alive".

Took this picture about a year ago in Auckland, I am not sure if it had not been completed. Have a look.

coke side of life~!

what has this world became ?

Recently I am quite disturbed. Seeing what is going on. Can you see it too ?

I was screaming inside, that how much can I help ? I am not having much ability to endure waiting or delay. Hoping to see a peaceful world. Perhaps this world has took 1000 years to evolve, and seeing what history has made by human being and seeing what are the people creating it. I feel like giving up.

Knowing this movement - "unsubscribe-me" - Amnesty say no to acts of terror and no to human rights abuses in the 'war on terror'. and what i could think of immediately is to download buttons and post it here, in order to spread the words, added the video widget of "Waiting for the Guards". Watching the video, my heart was extremely painful.

Reminds me of, that is this film - A Mighty Heart based on true story.

"On January 23, 2002, Mariane Pearl’s world changed forever. Her husband Daniel, the South Asia Bureau chief for the Wall Street Journal, was researching a story on shoe bomber Richard Reid. The story drew them to Karachi where a go-between had promised access to an elusive source. As Danny left for the meeting, he told Mariane he might be late for dinner. He never returned.

In the face of death, Danny’s spirit of defiance and his unflinching belief in the power of journalism led Mariane to write about his disappearance, the intense effort to find him and his eventual murderer in her memoir A Mighty Heart: The Brave Life and Death of My Husband Danny Pearl. Six months pregnant when the ordeal began, she was carrying a son that Danny hoped to name Adam. She wrote the book to introduce Adam to the father he would never meet. Transcending religion, race and nationality, Mariane’s courageous desire to rise above the bitterness and hatred that continues to plague this post 9/11 world, serves as the purest expression of the joy of life she and Danny shared."

"The night Danny disappeared, Mariane kept vigil with Asra Nomani, an old friend and colleague of Danny’s at the WSJ, living in Karachi. Both women were seasoned international journalists with formidable investigative skills, but they were also foreign women in a country that had become increasingly volatile since September 11. By dawn, they knew they were facing a crisis that required strong allies fully briefed on Pakistan’s proliferating terrorist cells, its byzantine bureaucracy and its notorious Inter-Services-Intelligence agency (I.S.I.).

Dozens of local investigators swarmed the house that morning, including a man called Captain, the then head of Pakistan’s brand new counter-terrorism unit. With Asra’s house as headquarters, Captain’s men, along with an American diplomatic security agent, two Journal colleagues and the FBI, dedicated themselves to the search. After five harrowing weeks, amidst escalating media frenzy, they found the kidnappers. Among them was the known militant Omar Saeed Sheikh, aka “Bashir,” the go-between who had offered Danny information relating to the shoe bomber story. Then came the devastating news that Danny had been brutally murdered weeks earlier.

Mariane and Danny believed that by bearing witness to events and allowing all voices to be heard, truthful journalism could bridge communities in conflict. Mariane has remained devoted to this principle, refusing to succumb to hate or fear. After Danny’s death, she went home to her native France to await Adam’s birth. She and Adam now live in Paris, France." extracted from www.amightyheartmovie.com
