YEP! It's LAUNCH DAY TMR!! Things have been approved for launch tmr after much anticipation after our presentation to the big shots!..
For the GRAND OPENING there will be 500 International Media covering our show. Additionally there will be many VIP guests including the Prime Minister.
So yeh you could say that's it's a big deal! haha!
Also on a totally random note, i was walking to the shops today and passed a construction site with a company truck named....
I think this company doesn't like to answer their phones!
Anyways! We have another presentation tonight for the SG Govt. and then we're good for LAUNCH TMR!
Which means i'll be home SOON! YAY!..
Well i think i might "HENG HUP SOON", so catch you guys back HOME!
So here's how it went... the first show was a flop because the audio was cutting in and out and the wind was blowing the waterscreens over.. plus there were no fireworks on the first one.. but the second was great! See the video's below!
Pre-show!
This was the second run through!.. Let me know your thoughts guys!
There are still a few things that having been installed or fully functional yet. For example those fountains should move. We have these actuators that move the fountain head in any/all directions to create animated fountains. Plus a whole bunch of other lighting and laser work to be installed and programmed. But it according to one of our project managers he said it was a 'miracle' that we got up what we presented last night, due to time and all the other hurdles! So Praise GOD!
Just want to say that i CANT WAIT TO BE BACK! Especially after watching church.. oh man missing it heaps! And a big thanks to all of you who have followed, posted or checked this blog! It has helped me stay connected with you guys in some sort of way!
Well here's an update of a few things!
Had some not too bad dim sums!
Had Delifrance the other day, buy one get the other half price! Quite nice! And i liked how you could choose a croissant as your bread!
Yep Chicken Rice.. one of my favs! This was at MBS!
Oh YES! This was a ramen place near my apartment called RAMEN MOSTER.. and i ordered a spicy ramen... and MAN it was good!!! Was surprised at how good it was! Took me back to Japan!
And another one of my favs, GYOZA! There were 3 of them but i ate one before i remembered to take a photo hehe!
And this was a newly written laser effect that Daryl wrote. Looked pretty cool! I think we're putting it in the show some where.. or should be!
Just to let you all know that today is a BIG BIG Presentation.. the MBS Execs are coming, the Singapore govt. are coming, the President and COO of Las Vegas Sands is coming and i hear that the OWNER or HEAD HEAD #1 guy is coming.. some of you know the name Sheldon Adelson.. If not just do a search on him and you'll know what i mean.. He's the Mr. Big Shot who always has security around him 24/7 and he's actually been #3 Forbes richest man in the world at one time.
Anyways no worries there right? It's just another presentation.. haha!!
Just updating the blog of what's been happening over here and what i've been eating. It's been getting busy again but it's all good!.. SO looking forward to getting back home!..

Went bowling with the HMC guys! Was great! A good break!
Lunch of course!
HMC Singapore.. check out the vid below!

This was a really nice chicken tikka that i had in Little India!
I think i'm really becoming a fan of Indian food.. hmm..
For all the girls out there.. it was a 4 storey store.. nope no guys level!
This was a take away peking duck store.. yep, take away!!
Ate at Kenny Rogers, which had stated 'The Best Tasting Chicken'.. So had to try it out! And i would describe it as a really good charcoal chicken! ha!
Also got ribs with it.. not as good as some you know?
This was my lunch yesterday at a cafe.. felt like western so i had a shepherds pie a mocha and a complimentary pasta salad, which said, "Hey good looking!"
YEP!!! Indian AGAIN! Chicken tikka and a Roti Prata Egg!!! YUM!
This is our fog machines going off as a demo test! It fogs pretty well!
This was during a demo we did for MBS Marketing. There were no search lights because we didn't have permission for the Singapore Aviation yet. So played the demo with just water screens and lasers.
This is the DMX control as it works through our show! Oh and that's Daryl! HA!
Well with just 9 days till home time for me i'm itching to get back!
Yep.. it's official.. I had Indian out of my own free will!
We had 3 Chicken Tikka's, 1 Lamb Vindaloo, Pita Rice, 4 plain naans, 2 garlic naans, 1 tandoor roti and 1 cheese naan.
You might be asking "Was it bad?" I'd say, 'Naaaaaaaan...' hahaha.. I must say that this food was actually quite nice.. yes mum.. it was actually pretty good. Well i enjoyed it..
And as the restaurant's name, the restaurant gives! Aromas of India!
That's my plate in the bottom left.. cleaning it out!
It's our first YOUTHOPEA for 2011!!! Have a tonne of fun and God bless!!
Last night was a different night.. i had to help out to get the water fountains in the water.. and MAN did it weigh a TONNE and a HALF! But was kind of fun and different from working in the shack the whole night!..
Well today i picked up my MBS pass which allows me to go to the Skypark for free, which is the top of the MBS hotel, with restaurants and pool area with a great view! SO I DID!
Check out it out below!
Yeh pretty cool!.. But you kind of need to be up there to experience the wow factor! So if any of you want a tour up to the top let me know! haha!
