EOY 2012

Still remember the last year, I blogged about EOY as a meido ambassador ?

Thanks to that, I was able to qualify for the Y-bloggist 2012 @ SBA2012 !

I was lucky enough to work with the EOY Team again this year , at a bigger event space.

 THE MARINA BARRAGE !!!!!!!!!

Instead of being the meido ambassador, this year I went as a KC Girl.

The KC Girls wear this school uniform that is in blue ( previously was in pink) 

かわいい？？

My job was to exchange cos-card with fellow cosplayers and EOY Quest players where they will need the QR Code on my coscard to defeat the monsters ! We also sold KC merchandise as well, go to our fb for more !  >>>> http://fb.com/kiracandygirls

It is always more fun to listen stories shared by an insider right?
Too bad for this year, I didn't managed to snap as a lot as compared to last year.
So most of the pictures are self shot. FML.

With June !

 Weather too hot I have to pull my hair !!!!!!!!!

Fooling around with Mirai cause I was bored at the booth !

With Yuki !

With Terumi !

 At the media walk through, managed to snap a little cause our intro was done !

It is fun to see that cosplayers actually do up such things to hype up the event. Of course there are more that's going around but didn't approach me.


>>>>>>>>> Mascot parade !

>>>>>>> End of event / work !!!

changed out of the uniform ! 

After I took the picture, I realised I look like some slut from no where. My dog life.

Sigh, I need to do something to my nose . >.<

With minni, and of course that's not our fingers!

Noelle, Minni, Neko and I stayed behind and had dinner with the team !

Look who can have romantic dinner by the bay !

Cheers to everyone who worked hard for the event, would also want to thank all our mama-sans, photographers and everyone who made the event an joyous and pleasant one !

Marina Bay Singapore Countdown 2012 Event With President Tony Tan

 On the last day of 2011, I met Singapore's new president for the very first time.

 I was with Duffy & Conan at the Esplanade Outdoor Theatre.

 Because , I was one of the featured blogger covering the event !

 Here come the president !

 President Tan going on stage to pen his wishes for a sphere

*throws*

 "I wish all Singaporeans happiness and peace in 2012. May we stand united as one people to rise above any challenges that may come our way. Happy New Year"

 President Tan sitted down with his committee watching the performance by .....

 Singapore Idol, Syltra Lee

Last picture before I leave the place.

Did you have a meaningful New Year Eve like mine ?

My experience with Sphere Maintenance #marinabay2012 !

Last Wednesday , I was privileged to have a boat ride down on the Singapore River and met 2 featured bloggers for the Marina Bay 2012 Countdown.
Not sure if you know about the wishing spheres, that have been going around shopping malls, having people to pen down their wishes.
Well, if you did write on the wishing spheres, they have been placed in the water at the Singapore River!
And I'm glad to have the chance to get closer with the spheres on Wednesday during one of the maintenance sessions !

The sky was a little dark , but I'm glad it didn't rain until we finish our rides !
Put on our life jacket, and while waiting to hop on the speed boat....

 Here's a picture of Laura and I before hopping to the speed boat!

 

Together with Elizabeth , Mr Nicholas (boatman) and his team.

Mr Nicolas explained his experiences with the spheres over the years and many other things around the spheres.

I don't think there's any deflated spheres to be spotted in the pictures, but do you know how they are put up ? ^^

According to Mr Nicolas, he told us that the spheres are lay outed like a spider web. 2-3 spheres are clipped to the ropes which are about 2 metres long and they are all linked together. Mr Nicholas says that by attaching them this way , it will prevent the spheres from breaking free.

 Laura & I on board !

Team behind the scene.

Then I wondered how do they fix the wishing spheres inside. Mr Nicholas told us that they had to paddle inside to fix them.
With the ropes just above water level, it is definitely a tough job !
Thanks for the hard work !

Just in case you are wondering where will the fire works be released, it will be in the middle of water !
See the blue "stage"

Be sure to get a good spot if you wanna shoot the fireworks !

If you have no plans on the NYE do come and join us for countdown at the Marina Bay Area!

Ending with a happy me in the boat ride watching the spheres !
