Make your Guinness Bold Confessions and win tickets to Guinness ‘Guilty as Charged’ party!

With Christmas just around the corner in less than a month time. And Christmas is a time of year when people gather for good times and to celebrate the past year. It’s also a time where we look back on things we have done or left unresolved.

With that in mind, Guinness came up with Christmas Bold Confessions campaign to inspire consumers to confess to something, to own up to something they have done, or to open up and let people in on a secret about themselves that nobody else knows.

*Gulp gulp gulp... drink some Guinness already can do #BoldConfessions already!*

Speaking at the launch, Guinness Anchor Berhad (GAB) Marketing Director Bruce Dallas, explained the thinking behind the campaign, “As the year draws to a close, thoughts turn to all that has happened over the last 12 months, and ahead to resolutions for the new one. Most of us have done something in the past year to which we’d like to confess and get it off our chest, whether it’s not using that expensive gym membership or admitting a guilty pleasure. But it’s also a time of year when we like to celebrate and have fun, and that’s what these confessions are – it’s a chance to celebrate who you really are, in a light-hearted and guilt-free way. "

Bruce further said that.. "Guinness we are all about making bold choices, inspiring our consumers to take a step forward and prove that they are Made of More. With our exciting new Christmas campaign, we’re challenging our consumers to stand up, ‘fess up in our Bold Confessions Booth, and be rewarded for their boldness.”

Starting November to December, consumers will be able to record their confessions in the Guinness Bold Confessions Booth which will be visiting outlets throughout Klang Valley. Locations would be released in Guinness Malaysia's Facebook

Good news to those bold enough to step inside and get it off their chest in time for the New Year will be rewarded with vouchers for  FREE pints of Guinness and 100 best confessions will win two tickets to the exclusive Guinness ‘Guilty as Charged’ party just before Christmas!!!

p/s: Not to worry, you can do your confession in private with your door close! 

Those using the Bold Confessions Booth will be able to watch some of our local personalities joining in the year-end fun with their Bold Confessions, including Kyoto Protocol, Paper Plane Pursuit frontman John O, and comedian Prakash Daniel.

Travel photos of my recent Myanmar backpacking trip!

Hey all! Anyone miss me here? 

Well I just came back from my Mystical Myanmar backpacking trip a while ago. Been so busy trying to catch up with my work and sleep!

I was there for 5 days 4 night and it was a very tiring trip but fulfilling one because we managed to traveled 1500km to 4 different regions i.e Yangon, Bagan, Mandalay and Inle Lake. And 3 out of 4 nights we spent sleeping in the bus to travel from one place to another. We spent about RM880 which includes my Airasia flights, transportation fee, 1 night accommodation fee, food, entrance fee and a little bit of souvenirs! 

I have so much to share with you all about this trip because I realized there are not much info on the internet that you can find. So before I can do that, let me take a nice break and do sit back and enjoy a few pictures which I took using my new camera Olympus E-PL7 (oh my this is such an amazing camera!)

Initially we have a a few more friends who supposed to come along, but all pulled out last minutes. Anyway I had fun travelling with my bff Lam.. he is so chatty and crazy!

Not only that we also managed to meet new friends during out trip! On the first day, we managed to know this very fun couple Cheryl and Juno from Penang during our trip and we decided to travel together! Ahh.. that's the beauty of backpacking.. to meet different people!

The famous Shwedagon Pagoda in Yangon!

Lots of huge & beautiful Buddha statutes in Myanmar, especially Bagan!

Beautifying my skin the local way! Met this super friendly lady and she insisted me to try this yellow liquid  extract taken from Thanaka tree. This extract is very interesting because most Myanmar girl applied this on their face. I was told this has the benefits of sun protection, cure acne and promote smooth skin. It is also an anti-fungal cream too!

We also went to  Kuthodaw Pagoda in Mandalay is the world's largest book stands upright! The book is actually the each small shrine behind me house a marble slab inscribed with texts! And there are 729 of them!

Beautiful sunset in U Bein Bridge in Mandalay!

Laughter the best medicine - Come laugh together at Harith Iskander…To know Malaysia is to LAUGH MALAYSIA show!

Yes, Laughter is the best medicine!

According to some researchers "Laughter is the best medicine" because it triggers the happy cells in our body! Laughter is s infectious. The sound of roaring laughter is far more contagious than any cough, sniffle, or sneeze. When laughter is shared, it binds people together and increases happiness and intimacy. 

Do you know laughter also triggers healthy physical changes in the body. We stretch muscles throughout our face and body, our pulse and blood pressure go up, and we breathe faster, sending more oxygen to our tissues. People who believe in the benefits of laughter say it can be like a mild workout and it may offer some of the same advantages as a workout. And apparently laughter appears to burn calories, too! 

So if want to have thinner face, laugh more lah ! But hor I been laughing all my life, but it doesn't work lohhhhh! 

Do you know this guy? He is no other than Harith Iskander who is the funniest man in Malaysia who would you make you laugh like nobody business!

Synonymous to the government’s effort of promoting brotherhood and camaraderie amongst fellow Malaysians, Harith the Godfather of stand-up comedy said his vision is for Malaysians is to come together for one night under one roof to display the strength of who we are and what we stand for as Malaysians - Unity, Moderation and Oneness. It’s time for Malaysians to turn DISTRESS into DE-stress.

In conjunction with World Mental Health Day 2014 with the the aim to spread the “1Malaysia” spirit, Harith would be putting his best performance on 29th October at Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil with the aim to make MALAYSIANS LAUGH OUT LOUD!

The show aptly given the title “Harith Iskander…To know Malaysia is to LAUGH MALAYSIA!”, promises to be the biggest night of stand-up comedy in Malaysia and will also feature new talents in the Malaysian comedy scene as well as other seasoned international comedians.

Dr Jason Leong who is a doctor turns comedian would be guest speaker for that night! Have seen him performed before a few years ago and now is a Certified Laughing Doctor because .... he is going to prescribed us with laughter as medicine! Besides him, we going to have special guest Papa CJ – one of India’s most influential comedians to be on the show!

As a lead up to this concert Harith is presently on his first International Tour covering six countries – Singapore, Indonesia, India, Australia, Hong Kong and South Korea – aptly titled “The Godfather of Malaysian Comedy International Tour 2014”. In each of these countries Harith has successfully and proudly flown the Malaysian flag in front of a truly international audience. He is now ready to bring that back home in front of his own people.

I was really excited to find out during the press conference that there would be new materials presented on the stage as well as some classic “best of” and with a mixture of interactive visuals and live music. Harith with more than 22 years of experience to his name, also aims to bring a new and exciting edge to his performance. The topics will be a mixture of daily observations about what makes Malaysia ‘tick’ told in the indomitable and distinctive Harith Iskander's style. Yay let's us support our own local talents! 

In the past I have attended a few Harith Iskander's show and seriously I love his shows because he made me laugh real hard! And occasionally when I was having a bad day, I just went to Youtube to watch his show to cheer myself up! What set him apart from other comedians is that his joke is really localized for the audience where as a Malaysia we can connect to it!

Apart from that, I was glad to find out that there are big hearted Malaysian corporations that have stepped up to support this event under the LAUGH MALAYSIA Umbrella namely Celcom First, Sime Darby Foundation, Seremban 2, MTT Priority and Pemandu. To make the show even more meaningful, percentage of profits from ticket sales will be channeled to OrphanCARE, a charitable NGO that strives to place abandoned children in homes with loving families.

Now I'm really looking forward to attend “Harith Iskander…To know Malaysia is to LAUGH MALAYSIA!” show to listen to his new material!!! 

Well we are all ready to LAUGH! Are you ?

Here are some of the bloggers who attended the press conference. 

Yes we comes in all different S (Sizes, Shapes and Styles) - 1 Malaysia mah!
