Cathay Motion Pictures Award 2015

[Event]

I got invited to attend the Cathay Motion Picture Awards 2015! A annual short film competition which started in 2012 for budding filmmakers to showcase their talents. We got to see the result show of The top 3 Winners; Best Motion Picture Award, First Runner-Up, Second Runner-Up and a Viewers Choice Award.

Red Carpet Photo Opportunity! Awkward Pose. Hahaha!
Red Carpet Interview Sessions with one of the 15 Finalist and their Supporters!

And after the Red Carpet, we were invited up to Cathay Cineplex Screen 2 for the Final Showdown. We watched 15 different films that were of 80 Seconds Each. Why 80 seconds? Because it is Cathay's 80th Anniversary this year! And all groups were given 80 Hours to finish a 80 Seconds Film! It's a tough timeline but I am very impressed with all the 15 Finalist Works!

ANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNND NOW.... THE RESULTS!

Viewers Choice - Artist by the group Smells Like Team Spirit (Andre He, Ho Wen Long, Jeremy Ho, Luna Pham, Russell Chan and Tan Yang Er)

Third Prize - $8,000 Cash went to the heart-tugging film Fragments, a film by Triple Js - Jaze Phua, Jerry Lim and Justin Kan.

Coming in second place, with a prize of $12,000 cash, was the film Seletar, written and directed by Melinda Tan and produced by Yeo Zhi Qi, both of whom conceptualised the story about two school girls mourning the death of their friend.

Retch made its way to the top prize at the Cathay Motion Picture Awards 2015. The team took home a cash prize of S$20,000, That's ALOT OF MONEY! Hope they put it to good use and come up with more films! Looking Forward!

In my personal opinion, The Cathay Motion Picture Award is a very good platform for budding filmmakers a chance to showcase their talent and also a platform to judge themselves on how good they are as compared to the other talents in the market. I now look forward to Next year's Competition!!

So, jio all your friends and family members to come for this Charity Carnival! Why do I call it a Carnival? Because there will be Giant Bouncy Castle, Cotton Candy, Live BandFlea Booths and The Best Ribs in Singapore! This Event would not be possible without all the Sponsors: Morganfield’s Singapore, Coca Cola, Carlsberg, AugustMan Magazine, Fleawhere, Steward’s Solution, and Hydrosphere Events.

When I first got invited to try out Envie De Neuf products, I didn't know what it was, where was it from. But as I research online, I found out that EDN in French means "Envy's New". The creation of EDN was from their understanding of everyone's search for youthful beauty, not just keeping up with your skin's existing conditions, but they want to help you regain & obtain the best possible, non-stop beauty for your skin.

EDN incorporated the latest advancements in anti-aging technology from Europe, Japan and the U.S to provide the most effective skin care treatment available.

EDN ensures that their products are formulated to activate skin cells, promote clarity of skin tone, contuour the face and condition the skin.

TWOMEN BAGEL HOUSE - ICON VILLAGE

*Food Review*

I've seen Two Men Bagel House on my social media feeds so many times and I quite like bagels, but those at starbucks always so hard one after it cools. Sometimes I feel like my teeth going to get pulled out together with the Bagel, lol. But anyway, I finally had a off day so I went to ICON Village at Tanjong Pagar to drop by Two Men Bagel House.


I Had the Hog with Black & White Sesame Bagel ($12.90). It consist of Slow Roasted Pork Belly, Fresh Lettuce, Tomato Slices, Sweet Pineapple Chutney and Mustard Sauce. It's a Juicy Delicious Mess I would say.

The hog came warm and sliced in half, I didn't know how to handle it because the bagel got hole in the middle mah. But the pork was very juicy and the pineapple chutney and fresh vegetables. The Bagel is definitely better than what I had st Starbucks. Hey don't judge me ok, I only eat bagels at starbucks before.

I opt to top up $2 for the drink to make it a lunch set. If only I work near ICON Village, I can go over to grab a bagel for Breakfast or lunch. 

I've heard from some of my friends that Bagels over seas are so much better then the ones in Singapore, But I've never got the chance to try those la, So I make do with the one at Twomen Bagel house first lo! I can't wait to go back to try the others!!

Supply & Demand Orchard Gateway

[Food Review]

After hearing the mixed reviews over Supply and Demand for so long, I finally made my way down with my dear Rosental for a weekend lunch date. Forgot to make reservations but luckily got seats for 2! But good thing is that they accept reservations la, so next time you can reserve your seats in advance!

Wanted to opt for healthier option so we both got the Cranberry Juice($4) but abit pricey la hor?

The very popular Garlic Truffle Fries($15) with 2 dips. Damn Shiok man this one! Cannot stop eating this and dipping it the sauces. I was almost half full before my pizza came. Hehe.

We opt for the 9 Inch Pizza and top up $3 for 2 flavours on 1 pizza! We opt for the popular choice "The Morning After" and "Parma Ham"! I love how the pizza has a thin crust but not overly thin you know, still got a little chewiness in it. I love this kind of Crust! The Egg yolk on "The Morning After" is damn shiok when you spread it across the top and savour it. The Parma Ham was just ordinary in my opinion. 

Overall my experience at Supply & Demand was pretty good. I would be back to try out the other items if my friends want to head over. Haha. Very nice place to chill out for some drink in the town area after work! :)
