Busy Busy Life..
Well,

Who say busy is not good? Its better than sitting around, doing nothing and no aims for your life, am I right?

Alright, first of all, don't flame me for not updating my blog for like... 1 month? So sorry for the ultimate delay, because for the last month, I am either preparing, rehearsing my shows, or preparing for the oversea shows that we had last week.

Yap, we are officially backed from Oman, Middle East. Well, its about 7 hours flight from Singapore to Dubai and then a 1 hour transfer flight to there. I simply love the place, mainly because of the weather. Even though it can be really hot, but it won't at least make me sweaty. :)

All and all, the show have been good and I am happy that we pulled it off successfully, knowing that because of the volcanic thingy, it causes alot of problems to everyone. So I happy that we still can fly to Oman and do the super show.

We had our bit of fun, with the great sea (note: this is the first time i being to a different beach than singapore) And not very fun enjoying the food, well, not because the food is not nice, but the choices are limited to me. :( I don't like seafood anyway. LOL!!

So so, the moment we drop back to singapore, there are 2 shows awaiting and today, coming back to office, it seems like time flies in a blink, Now is almost coming MAY!! Woo..

So time to get back to rehearsal and see you guys soon!!!

Rehearsal Rehearsal Practice Practice
People says, Practice makes perfect. Well, certainly true. Rehearsal and Practices are on the roll now since we are preparing for a big thing on May.

Other then the shows we have during the weeks, me and kinetic gal is gearing up for new things coming up and making time for practices to make sure our routines are good.

Pressure is on us, but I pretty sure its for the good of us. You need constant improvements to make sure that you are always different and on top of others in your field.

Well, Time to go back to fire eating. CYA!

Phew.. Upcoming Break.
Finally, able to catch a breath and blog in here.

Time really flies, and the first month of 2010 is already over. The whole month, (Even before) see me doing all the prep work and things for St james show and the 4D prediction.

IMO, the 4D prediction is a success in terms of its penetration and the context of it. Actually because of this mega illusion, it let me see through about how some people are so narrow minded about things and not being opened and objective.

But of course, there are talented people out there that catch the ball and know what we are doing exactly. For the minor crowd, so sorry that you guys didn't understand. It just like watching some movies that there is a Deep story inside and some just won't catch it. Example like The Hero by Jet Lee, Geisha, etc. Some people like the story because of how the artist acted inside. But seriously, there are alot of moral or meaning inside these stories, which is the catch point to some people.

Oh well, since its over and its pointless debating who is right and who is wrong, I just want to say that it is for a good cause and thats it.

Other than that, the new concept of the video also took a toll out of me, the different feel and the duration is causing lag to my system. I need a SUPER COMPUTER!! LOL!! No money le..

As for my show, for some updates, due to the complexity and the Resort world is not just fully open. I will not be showing my face there. Ya, the timing clashes with some of the important shows coming up. :(

Well, moving on, we are coming up with a show on May to cater to the family people. So watch out for it, PEOPLE!!

Last but not least, CNY is up the corner and to everyone in the house, MAY THE MONEY ALL ROLL TO UR POCKET!!! Time for MAHJONG!

New Year, New hopes, New Resolutions
Well,

I not those people that are into New Year Resolutions, because I will forget after awhile. But there are somethings that are constantly needed to be done for this New Year which I always remember.

1) To tighten up my skills and shows, so that I feel and do more naturally for my show
2) Gym up again to tighten my fists because it makes me more energized and fit when it comes to work.

So see, my aims are very simple de. :)

Well, for last year, it have been a fruitful year, alot of things happen and change, but I glad that in the end of the day(Year), everything turns out well.

The best gift for last year will be the additional person into my life: MY ALL LOVING GF. Well, alot of people doubt about my ability to be in a steady relationship, but I feel that its always about finding the right people or work or things. If it/she doesn't suit you, I don't feel the need to continue.

So she came by or drop by and fortunately, both of us feel that both of us are right for each other, She and I just fill into the gap of each other. I really glad.

Her understanding, "stupidity"(not stupid as in stupid), motivation is what I needed for a gf. I hope I be a wonderful bf for her also. :) (But who won't make mistakes? Just learn from it and understand each other)

So end of the year, We rushed for 4 shows on the eve, well technically the last year is past midnight. It was fun because we had our countdown in the car, LOL!!! Will rushing to another gig, Its lame stupid but it is always so memorable to have something different from the rest of the world.

And oh ya, I just watched AVATAR and it is the EPIC movie of the YEAR. The plot is so well written and everything was well thought, small details that I don't think anyone will know it but I do. It was great.

They should make a TV series of it. I think it falls great when the story are lay down and told deeper. :)

Show gig for the Toh Association!!
This is one major show that I done this year, for over 1000 people in the hall/ballroom, this is huge!!

When I was screening the room, 1st floor and 2nd floor is filled with people, and I wonder if everyone surname is Toh.

Well, the gig was pretty good, the client was happy with me and I have a great time with the kids and the adults where they helped me in my strait jacket and 1 handed mailbag escape.

Its kinda of great when you are doing the magic, and kids starts going, "I know how it was done" then next moment, you see their mouth wide opened and dumbfounded.

My 1 handed mailbag escape is always a killer to end the show because people will be surprised on how I manage to escape from the locks and chains when I cannot see, and locked down by an audience.

(Everything is a real deal, kids don't ask your dad to lock you in his bag, and you attempt to escape.)

I also did a show for a family day out at Downtown east. Cosy environment with very friendly crowd. Have a great time interacting with them, and all of them enjoyed my show. Because its great to hear and see those applause whenever I do my closing, of course, the thumbs up and small words that the people gesture when they walk past me or I walk past them.

Thanks for your support!!

New Photoshoot for Resort World Gig
Some of you might know that I am booked for a 3 month duration performance for Resort World, and they called me a while back to do a photo shoot for their marketing.

Here are some photos taken from our camera:














Iris, our make up artist, doing make up for me. Its rare that I use make up artist, but for the photoshoot to turn out good, some thing is a must have. :)
















Test Shot before the actual shoot to get the lightings all right
















The shots I wanted them to have is the punk rock style with deadly spikes. So this is one of the shots that was taken.

The best one is yet to appear, so still waiting for the actual chosen shot to be sent to me.

The photographer and the crews are great, being professional is the one thing to do things fast, he knows what he wanted and the whole shoot went smoothly.

Next up is the shows!!!

Driving Experience
Well, first of all, finally my gf is back from the long 8 days trip in Shanghai/Nanjing. Its very long, so long that I am damn bored and hopelessly lost.

Well, she is finally back, and of course I am happy!! LOL!! Not just that, but she is also my guide to learning driving safety. Yes, I say again, SAFETY.

Because there are alot of noobs out there, that thought that once they have that license to drive, they can drive. Which IMO is totally wrong. Ok, I had my bike license for 7 years and its already hard enough to "Master" it after getting the license.

So for driving, asking me to drive when I just got my license, I said a NO NO to anyone. Unless I mastered the real techniques. Alot of people got into accident because they cannot read other road users or drive too fast.

So, I got my gf to "teach" me, parking, driving, etc. I can tell you, its damn hard to drive, carpark parking is damn hard, and control a car is also hard. LOL!!

So now, I can drive and park, (1 time reverse went in okie!!) LOL!!, but going up a carpark, is still a headache man..

Okie as for now, all thanks to my gf loh
