Hello!
Just completed the SGX Bull Charge earlier n it was so fun cos there were doggies!!! One of the runs was a Dog Run. How I wished I could've brought Mika along!
Yvonne-jie & I are the Ambassadors for the run this year. It's so nice being able to participate in such charity runs; the children from MINDS did a wonderful hip hop dance performance! I was impressed! Pretty sure they can do hip hop a lot better than me! And it was also interesting to see big bosses from various companies running together having fun!
Prior to the run, we also visited St Vincent's Home at Waterloo St and played Bingo, sang songs with the old folks living there. It felt like a nice family welcoming us to their home! :)

Here's the pics from the run...

Our wonderful guys that ran with us to make sure we were ok! Thank U!
Yvonne-jie & ! were each given a clay bull that's all individually
hand painted by the 18 charities sponsored. Each of the 18 bulls are
unique in design! I love mine! It's soooo beautiful!

Mika staring at my Clay Bull!

I managed to squeeze in some time from my filming schedule to volunteer as a model for the specially designed clothes at the ACRES Gala Dinner that was to be auctioned off that night. Managed to get some of my MSU babe friends - YY & Phoebe to volunteer as well!
Stayed on after the fashion show to join in the dinner and I'm proud to say that ACRES does have a firm group of supporters! Each shirt was auctioned off for at least $500!!! All proceeds will go to fund this non profit organisation. All for a good cause! I think at the end of the night ACRES managed to raise about $30K during its auctions! I was happily in tears....

Hihi!!!
I'll be flying off to Boracay early tmw morning and I am so looking forward to that trip! I'm going over there for a photo shoot and heard that the place has pristine beaches, white sands - one of the most beautiful beaches in the world! Traveling there is not gonna be easy tho with 2 flights there, a bus ride then a ferry ride! *gasp*
This afternoon I was in Takashimaya Square to launch the OSIM Singapore International Triathlon event which is held on 12 & 13 July. I will be taking part in its mini triathlon. :) Looking forward to training and becoming super fit! That is why recently, I've got the Nike+ Sportsband to help me in my personal training. It looks super cool - just like a bangle/watch. Take a look!
It's super cool... U just place the chip in any Nike+ enabled shoe and just run! It'll record your run, calories burnt and distance covered! :)
Here's the photos taken on 10 May during my Preserve Planet Earth Project in Johor Bahru. Miss Malaysia Universe 2007 Ms Adelaine Chin was there to join me for the event as well and it was real nice to see a familiar face and catch up! Plenty of Malaysian ministers and JB's Mayor was there to grace this event as well.





This sapling was planted by me! There's a Singapore sign below it to mark that it's planted by me. :) It's now by the Sungei Tebrau River and I hope it'll grow big and strong!
That's all for now... gotta zzz..... need to wake up real early tmw morning for my flight! I'll upload more pics of this preserve planet earth project and the OSIM launch when I get back! for now....Nite!

I finally embarked on planting my trees or "Plant-a Tree" as promised during my MSU 07 crowning! After one year and nearing the end of my reign, I managed to fulfill my goal and dream in doing so with the students in Singapore!!! :)
This is done in conjuction with NEA's latest Energy Efficient Singapore Programme and launch of a short film called "Super Saver" where a Sec 1 Chung Cheng High boy is the main lead. I'm also starring in it as his teacher and "fairy of the forest"! Hee hee... Here's a banner on it!

Catch the official launch of the short film on 23 May 2008 at Y2Y Network.
This morning I planted another tree but this time in Johor Bahru at Sungei Tebrau as part of the "Preserve Planet Earth" project as the Rotary Club Youth Ambassador. (More on this later)
Here's the photos of the events that happened on 9 May, Friday.
Sitting amongst the students, waiting to go on stage to introduce our short film.

Talking about my experience acting with the Sec 1 boys and being their teacher!
Telling everyone about my latest article in Citta Bella May issue (Jacelyn Tay on cover) about saving the environment. Go get it!!!!

Now, moving on to planting a Honey Star Fruit tree with Super Saver! (Don't U think he looks like Superhero Robin?)


Pouring in the soil and officially planting it in!


Now, to give it some water and spark of life!
And finally placing in the plaque in front of the tree... Let's see how long it will take to grow up! :) I shall visit it again in a few months time!


Zaki the photographer who helped me get some wonderful shots!
Hope U enjoyed the pics as much as I had fun there!

Just came back from my dance training with Jeanette for our dance scene together and it's very "hot"! Don't know how it'll come across on camera but I like how it looks in the mirror! But comparing me with Jeanette who has 10 years of dance background I feel pressured and look not as experienced as her dancing! Hee.... *stress*
More training sessions is yet to come and hope it'll look better and better!!!
Did a short film shoot for NEA to promote saving the environment and saving electricity and planting more trees! I'm supposed to be a teacher cum "Guardian of the Forest!"
Here's my "Guardian" outfit during our photoshoot with Ralph the superhero that saves our Earth!!!
Do I look like a fairy???
Wish I could keep the wings tho!! :(

Ralph the Superboy!!! I love my face paint and twigs "growing" in my hair! :P

After the shoot I was really hungry! Had a nice dinner at Ichiban! But the highlight was really the White Sesame pudding dessert I ended my meal with!
Okie, that's all for now... I'll upload the pics taken during the publicity shoot soon! (when I get them from Desmond)

Hope everyone's CNY was a blast! Lotsa yu sheng, family gatherings etc etc...
This year, I participated in the Chingay parade as part of the CNY celebrations. It's my very first time being involved in the parade (and apparently it's the 1st time for a Ms Singapore Universe to be in it!) When I was in school I was only involved in Youth Day and NDP celebrations!
I've always liked watching the Chingay parade as it's full of colour, vibrancy and filled with lively performances. And it's interesting to see new float designs and innovativeness in their co-ordination and movements! Dunno what will surprise U next!
And this year's Chingay presents to you...... Your 1st Female F1 Racer!!! (at least I attempted to be one!)

I can't believe my luck! I've always wanted to sit inside a real F1 car and hold it's millions of dollars steering wheel. It's a dream come true! All I wanted to was to take photos of that beautiful machine and I didn't expect the crew to offer me the chance to sit inside the cockpit! I made plenty of my guyfriends jealous with the photos! Furthermore, they fired up the engine for me to see! The roaring sound of it simply was melodious and deafening at the same time! I am such a sucker for cars! (caused by the heavy influence of my brothers!)
That being said, I still drive an economical fuel saving Honda FIT! Just like admiring from afar....

As the Youth Ambassador for Rotary Club Singapore, I went down to JB early this morning together with a Rotary Club Singapore rep to meet up with the Rotary Club Johor Centennial members to discuss and finalise the site and sponsors from the Malaysian side for this environmental project in March.
In addition we had a meeting with the MP of Johor Bahru Datuk Shahrir(in photo) as he is supporting this event. In March, I will be leading about 500 students from Singapore to go over to Sungei Tebrau to clean up the river of litter and hopefully plant some trees in the mangrove. Ms Malaysia world will co-lead the Malaysian students for this same project as well. This not only ties up both Singaporean and Malaysian students to work together as one but also raise their awareness of keeping our environment clean and protecting its wildlife that lives in it.
This is the current state Sungei Tebrau the site we are going to work on in March:

Mr Nathan invited everyone in Mediacorp who participated in the recent President's Star Charity show to the Grand Ballroom in the Istana for a reception just to say "thank you". And of course I accepted his invite! I've never been inside the Istana ever so I am really curious to know how it looks like inside.
As we were driving into the Istana with the sun-setting in the backgroud, the view was simply picturesque, just like a painting! There's a 9-hole golf course inside the compounds for Members of the Parliament and a couple of wandering swans on the lawn! The Istana's huge! Around 16 hectres big if I'm not wrong..... can't imagine what's it like to upkeep such a big home!
One thing I really wanted to do when I was in the Istana was to shake the President's hand and take a photo with him! (I know I sound like a tourist or something but it's rare to have a photo taken with a President! And not just A President, it's Singapore's) Was really really happy when I got my photo with him! *HAHAH*
After that was accomplished, I just mingled around and enjoyed the buffet spread and went camera crazy with the rest who were there! :P
