I was honoured to be given this chance to witness the Red Carpet of 'Homecoming'. The respond was overwhelming... There was a huge crowd around the stage waiting patiently to greet 'n' meet the casts of 'Homecoming'.
'Homecoming' is collaboration between Malaysia and Singapore with a series of three different families overcoming unexpected obstacles in rushing to get home in time for their reunion dinner on Chinese New Year Eve... This movie is about the significance of going home and the importance of reunion dinner.

Rating 3.5/5
A major highlight of this movie is that of Jack Neo, who will be playing a cross-dressing role on the big screen as Ah Niu's mother - Karen Neo. Despite his extramarital affair, Jack Neo never failed to make us laugh... Seems like his sense of humor is growing. In this movie, he really outshines everybody playing a middle-aged aunty role.

Another local comedian - Mark Lee... He plays a snobbish French cuisine chef. It’s kinda weird to hear him keep saying this word 'fantabulous'.... What is 'fantabulous'??
(I guess this word comes from a funny combination of fantastic and fabulous)

Great chemistry between Jack Neo and Ah Niu... Together with Malaysian multi-talented writer-director-comedian Afdlin Shauki who plays a idiosyncratic taxi driver. The Trio make a perfect comedic scene in the movie... I am simply impressed by the Afdlin Shauki's acting in the movie.

A pretty good movie to me, and the core message to us is the importance of the CNY celebration and the traditions. 'Homecoming' is not just a tailor-made movie for this Chinese New Year, in fact it is a movie for all...

I had the pleasure of watching the preview screening all thanks to OMY.sg. The premiere date is on the 3/February 2011

To mark the end of the Gala Premiere, we were invited to the post-party @ Gallery Bar... A chance for us to get up close and personal with the casts!
Fans and media people & bloggers were waiting for the casts to arrive at the bar...
What I do to buffer the waiting time... I cam-whoring :) ~ This is my Baby... Say 'Cheeze' with me ~
Baby is not a chinese-speaking person whom can't really understand some chinese characters or the meaning of the words used... Somehow rather, I managed to bring him closer to chinese traditions and of course movies, songs and even attend Asian Stars' concerts.

Thanks once again for the invitation! I had a fun-filled post party...

KUNDAL o ffers natural hair/bodycare products that have the perfect blend of plant extracts. Their products are comfortably referred to as green products due to their biodegradable and non-toxic components. What I love about the  KUNDAL HONEY & MACADAMIA  range is  that they use honey and macadamia extracts as their main ingredients. They are also infused with a specific scent - such as Pink Grapefruit, White Musk or Cherry Blossom, or the most popular floral scent, Baby Powder.

Thanks for introducing COCOnCO from Korea which has helped me to achieve pleasant results from my beauty regime.   COCOnCO First Essence Toner  is a fermented facial essence, and it soothes wrinkles, tones, moisturizes and nourishes the skin, enhances blood circulation and metabolic processes at the cellular level, evens out complexion, brightens the skin, reduces the secretion of sebaceous glands and fights rashes. If you have pale, tired skin with sagging and fine lines, these can be miraculously transformed with regular use of the essence! It is suggested to be used as the first step in daily skin care. Apply it to cleansed skin first before applying the lotion, emulsion/serum and cream.  It is recommended for the product to be used twice a day - Once in the morning, and once in the evening.

[Try and Review] Jonsson Protein's signature VE Protein Hair Treatment

The common scalp problems can cause a lot of irritation, but also hair loss. I was in complete shock at the state of my nightmarish infected scalp! One must make a huge effort to take good care of your scalp. Hence here I am at Jonsson Protein for their signature VE Protein Hair Treatment. Although there are many hair products to cleanse my scalp, it is better to head to a professional. The scalp treatments in a salon would cost you more than shelf products but it is worth the investment! Always remember that having a healthy scalp is the most important element in ensuring that your hair in a healthy and top notch condition!   The benefit of scalp treatment is not just to have shiny luscious locks, it also helps to regulate sebum production, remove dandruff, eliminates impurities and dead skin cells, and prevents hair loss/hair follicles.   The therapist scanned my hair to show me on what hair problems I presently have. She also explained that my scalp was pretty oily, and my scal
