Another Chapter Closes...

What a bittersweet evening it was... the 28th February will be one night i'll remember for a very long time to come.

twas my very last gig for SMU. SMU, the place where i found my element, where i found my passion for hosting... where i found my calling in life. Of all the shows i've done for SMU, this one couldn't have been more appropriate for a finale - It was for Caderas Latinas... the club i adore so much. I've never been a member of the club, but i love the people there, and the family spirit they have. It's really heartwarming. And i've always had fun hosting for them anyways. On top of that, it was a big event... with the kinda crowd an emcee could only dream of. The stage was set... so to speak. it was showtime. It was time for Latin Festival 2008, Bailamos en la calle!





I had the time of my life! the performances were breathtaking! the performers were hotter than jessica alba in an oven! the crowd was in full volume... the games were a crowd-pleaser... everything was perfect. And most of all, i was in my element. I loved the autonomy the organising comm gave me... Thus, i really let loose and gave it my all.








I received a few compliments about my performance... and i would like to sincerely thank all who have given them to me. You have no idea how much it means to me, especially since i want to make this my career... thank you guys sooo much. I would especially like to thank Corina for helping me out and for being such a great programs director, and of cos Huiyi... for being the BEST emcee liasion i could ask for! Last but never least, my darling Shermeen... your presence and support was all i needed to get by...


I'm very proud of SMU Caderas Latinas. They really made this kickass event a real success! You should have seen the jam packed crowd! it was like, a record attendance at DXO, ever! I was perspiring sooo much cos there was just too many people! hahaha

Alas, that was how it all ended for me. I won't be emceeing any more SMU events anymore (at least as a student)...what a way to conclude a chapter of my life. somehow that wrings my heart a little. I'm gonna miss it... i know i will, someday.



on a side note: shermeen and i have successfully completed creating this video for a client... he needed a video to show HIS clients the entire process of his job.... but with a little tongue-in-cheek... hehehe.

Kidabion, anyone?

Just yesterday (saturday) i hosted an event at Bukit Panjang Plaza called "Kidabion 4 million + 1 smiles"... meant to promote the new health supplement foe kids called Kidabion, and it's those chewable capsules... where the moment u break the shell, the juice bursts out! Much like putting a whole fried (wet) egg yolk into your mouth and then breaking it with your gums... oooh yeahhhhh. hahah anyway the capsules tastes pretty nice though.

However as for the entire structure and flow of the event, let's just say it didn't really sit easy with me. I personally felt that my boss tried to squeeze too many things into one event that it was just overwhelming for the limited staff, the emcees and i'm sure the audience as well. We had a memory game, a guessing game, a human calculator game, a crazy cups competition, a photo competition, colouring contest, mural painting.... all within 4 - 5 hours! That's insane!!! I mean, i was struggling to keep up with all the happenings as well. As a result i didn't have any rest and i almost lost my voice. Nonetheless i'll be heading down for another round today. hope it goes well...

The multi-talented Genevieve: First dancing, mascoting, emceeing, acting, now balloon twisting?? Gee. i hear next she's going to be stunt driving, while balancing a dog on her head.

This is the part of the event i enjoyed. It's called Crazy cups... basically they have stack these specifically engineered cups up and down as quickly as possible... in a certain formation, of course. I found it sooooo intriguing, that i decided to buy a set of crazy cups from the instructor as well. hahha will demonstrate to you guys once i've mastered it. I'm aiming for maybe year 2010. hahahah.

Anyways at night, i picked up the frujch people from school and went for some (non-alcoholic) drinks at serangoon gardens... and of course we shared a few good laughs once again. I sent everyone back thereafter... But i really enjoyed myself just driving around, really. at 2+ am in the morn, the roads of singapore are actually quite pleasant. Woohooooo!
