Martell VSOP

So sorry you guys for not updating my blog. Had a rough week. Had migraines for the past week and a half. But no worries, all is well between me and my head!

So... Cc was one of the finalist of the MARTELL VSOP Rising Personalities Awards 2009. She got nominated out of so many rising personalities out there. The final event was held in Studio 99, Bangsar 2 weeks ago. Hubby, ME and Nancy went along to support Cc after work. When we arrived, there were cameras flashing, celebs posing, girls gossiping and guys worshiping them especially those sexy ones.

Sad to say, I'm not one of them haha and I'll never be because a place like Bangsar will never like me nor would I say I'm fond of. I prefer the cafe at the corner at the end of lot or probably the bookshop that I'm happy to browse through the whole day.

Nancy, ME and Cc

Nancy the ever so bubbly;
ME the 'why so posh' today (must be the haircut)'

Cecilia's Performance with Billy

... all I can say is that her performance blew the crowd away.. the crowd at the front, the crowd at the back plus.. the crowd upstairs.. everyone got up to watch.. everyone screamed for excitement.. I guess she just shooked Studio 99.

And of course the proud winner was Will Quah.. I've predicted.. you've predicted and even my father in law predicted.

Congrats William... you won a cash prize of RM20,000, an all expense paid trip to Cognac, France to visit the Martell facilities, and 10 bottles of Martell VSOP.

HELP's Help in Awareness

A week ago on this very same day, I went to HELP University College @ Damansara with Nancy and her cousins. We attended the "Cervical Cancer Prevention Awareness Programme" at the college. Coincidentally, Cecilia was the emcee of the programme. So, we went there to support her and also to get the vaccine ourselves.

I googled and found out that some people are against this vaccination. HPV stands for human papillomavirus. This particular vaccine helps to protect against 4 types of HPV. I don't know why but they claimed that it doesn't work. Hmm.. I mean it's no harm in getting vaccine and if it does saves you in the future then why not? Get more info @ GARDASIL

T-Shirts were selling at RM25 each and all proceeds goes to charity

That's Dr. Alan Teh giving out information on Why, What, When, Where, and How. He also added some sex education during his lecture which wowed some of the younger audiences like little Chloe, my cousin-in-law.

-i have yet to receive the picture from the photographer of myself getting vaccine-
BUT I'LL POST IT AS SOON AS POSSIBLE!

We 5 are aware.. well, only 4 of us here.. the +1 is Cc and she is somewhere..


I took the vaccine.. had a little bruising at the area which is common and I have been informed during Dr. Alan's lecture, it might caused some swelling and redness as well. It's no biggy. I'll have to go for the 2nd dose next month and the 3rd which will be the last dose in August. This means, this vaccine contains 3 jabs taken in a period of 6 months. This programme was held to create awareness among girls as young as age 9 to young adults.

Famous celeb like Anita Mui died from cervical cancer years ago when cervical cancer was still invisible to the world and just recently Jade Goody lost her battle against it too. Her effort in creating awareness by living her life in the media even when she was dying was dubbed heroic in the UK. You may not know this but cervical cancer is the 2nd deadliest among women.


In memory of
Jade Goody

Before she was diagnosed

She remained calm throughout her ordeal..

One of her final days...
