Section: Sports, Hotbod

Haha..It’s official! Am on Hotbod in the Sports section for The Sunday Times on 15.06.08..haha..:P Well, not a surprise to me as i agreed to do that for the suai ge colleague of mine…apparently his ex was the reporter and photographer for that section so when he smsed me two weeks ago whether i could help her out, i just said okay..no harm appearing and i was really flattered when he approached me! ahah..:P So i did the shoot a Sunday before..more like before i left for Taiwan the following Monday..So the pic appears on Sunday where i was still away holidaying in Taiwan! ahah..so that very morning, i received many SMSes from all my frens and colleague who told me about it! ahaha..:P Seriously at that time i still have yet to see it so was wondering how it looked like..i did see the pics that she took..it was like at West Coast Park! I still remembered how it was for me, in my bikini top and shorts..with the police post at the back! ahah..he must be wondering what the hell are these 2 girls doing.. She did asked me if i want to take off my shorts to shoot with my bottom and i am like way no man! it was at the park and not sentosa so it would really be weird to be walking around with my bottom..ahah

So when i received the smses from my frens, i was like wondering how i look man..would it be ugly? all i know is that during the shoot i was pretty tensed but hey the shoot was much easier than FHM! ahah..all i have to be is myself, unlike FHM where i have to put on makeup and look slutty..ahah It is so much easier here..just go without my makeup and my flip flops!

Received a SMS from one of my colleagues so i knew thats it already lor..sure become a hot topic in my office and boy am i right..When i got back to work on Wed, i was in Mel’s car when they were like talking about it..saying that i am like the hot topic right now in office..ahaha..:P So u bet the kind of attention that i got when i reached office! I was teased the whole day, being called Hotbod..and even quoted what i said in the article! ahah..:P Gosh i was so embarrased lor..Just doing my fren a favor and this is the teasing i got..ahaha ;P And worst still, everyone in my building knows about it! i received emails from colleagues who i know located at other sites saying that they saw me in the papers..ahah..or should i said SOXAL..coz i have an asst GM coming up to me asking to see the article and said that he heard it at the mgmt meeting from another manager who is located in Jurong Island! Gosh! How news spread!! I bet everyone in SOXAL, no matter where they are located are like this marcom exec from J2! Well, i expected that coming but not all over SOXAL man! Just from J2 is normal but not all over…Luckily they dont read FHM and know about me in there..otherwise it will really be bad!! And the peeps who know about it aint that loud so not too bad..

Till today, i still get called Hotbod in the company..ahaha..i guess the nick is gonan stick for the longest time ever man..and teasing me about my diet..well well well..thats going to stick as well..ahaha..:P

And not too sure if peeps recognized me on the streets coz i get really weird stares from this lady and another guy when i was waiting for my bus at my company’s bus stop on Wed..hmmm..

My mum dinch even know about it! She was so shocked when i showed her the article on Wednesday nite..and shes like staring at it blankly…after she got over the shock, she was like how come you did it? ahaha..Think shes shocked to see her daughter in half-bikini on national papers! Lucky she dinch see the one in FHM! -_-

But hey i enjoyed the shoot coz its where i can be myself And the guy who was featured with me aint too bad as well…ahaha..but hey am just doing my fren a favor!

Today something special happened which surprised me..:) At about 4 plus while i was busy typing on my lappy, updating my GAS meeting minutes..Azman from HR training came up to my desk and said, “Hey Meg, someone sent his regards to you..” I was surprised and like “Huh? Wat?” So Azman repeated..someone sent his regards to you lor..i was like..huh who? He was like behaving secretly and then he said A lor..you know Alvin right? I was taken aback..A was this cute guy that i met at one of my company’s sites when i was doing corporate video filming a month back..i didnt get a chance to speak to him then so kinda found him on Frenster and msged him from there..were pretty much stayin in touch through Frenster..:) So when Azman came up and told me i was like taken aback and surprised!

Me: huh? he’s in J2 huh?
Azman: ya..he was..jus now lor..for training..eh, how you know him huh?
Me: Oh..coz i met him during the corporate video filming in April when i wen over to his site..
Azman: Oh i see..

But hey you can see he has this suspicious look on his face..haha..but after Azman left i was like still surprised and pretty much taken aback..dinch expect him to send his regards to me thru Azman..hee hee..hmm..probably hes too shy to come up to say hi to me in person so asked Azman to send his regards to me..or probably he just dinch know where i was located exactly..hee hee..well, that brought a smile to my face..and immediately i just emailed him saying thanks to his regards..Hmm..if he really does come up to me and say hi, i guess i would probably be so pai seh lor..hee hee..but that definitely brought a to me..

And another thing that totally shocked me! Met this manager from the event yday with TP..apparently hes a guest from TP side…so he passed me his namecard…was just emailing everyone who attendded the event yday a thank you note when he replied back..so the exchanges started from there and sorta wen onto SMS..coz he had my phone number so he smsed me..then i sorta remembered clearly that he was wearing a wedding band so i asked him if hes married and hes like ya i am..and i was shocked that he is still like flirting with me over sms! hitting on me like nobody’s business! Somemore said that i look great..sporty blah blah blah..then i asked him whether his wife would mind and he said that no lah its okay..not as if i would msg him late at nite..

Gosh! when he said that, you know where he is coming from lor..he was tryin to b funny..upon hearing tat, i jus terminated the SMS thing by saying that i need to go blah blah blah..

Goodness! Am shocked! from his initial behavior i thought he was single and i thought i saw wrongly about the wedding band..until i asked him and he confirms it! and somemore can hit on me like nobody’s business! Gosh! -_-

Guys guys guys..wat are they up to man? ahhaahah..

Was so tired of typing on my keyboard coz of the stupid keyboard cover that i had over it to protect my white keyboard from getting dirty…sorta like a condom..ahah:P but hey i hated it lor..makes so hard to type on it..GOSH!

Anyways yday was like my event with the Traffic Police..sorta like a program that my company is doing with TP so was so busy over the past few weeks preparing for it and when it was over am so glad! -_- Gonna put up some pictures over the next few days once i download them from my office camera..and the TP guys that am working wif..gosh..they are just so full of crap..ahaha..totally different when their Sir and Mdm were around..so darn serious lor..but when one of the senior Staff Sgt asked me, “so my mdm left already huh?” “ya lor..come lah..lets eat..” so after hearing their mdm had left, they immediately relag themselves and started talking rot with me..ahaha..:P One of them was an NSF, serving his service with the police so he started to small talk with me

TP NSF: So how old are you? I think you are definitely older than me one lah..
Me: You guess lor..
TP NSF: 26?27?
Senior Staff Sgt: Hmm..24?
Me: hee hee..wat if i said that i am younger than 24
Snr staff: 22?
Me: Ya lah..NSF’s guess is right..
TP NSF: you see..am right..sure know one..
Snr staff: He sure know one lor..coz he already scanned you from database..
Me: WAT? You did that?
Snr staff: ya lor…when you have ic no, you can scan thru all database..

TP NSF was like blushing lor..I was like shocked! “Huh? Are you sure anot?” Then he immediately blushed and said ya lor..with your IC no i know everything about you and that stupid snr staff just rubbed it in..and i was like but you guys dunch have my ic wat..then snr staff said..”Aiyah but got your full name mah..so can find out everything about you from the database..” OMG! I was shocked! ahah..dinch know they are so bo liao..ahah..but seriously they are really very funny..And boys will always be boys…no matter which line they are in..so cheeky! -_-

And you know wat? my male colleagues were once again teasing me today saying that they want to sian me blah blah blah..ahaha..as usual..i just played around with them lor..ahaha ;P

But seriously, the really unforgettable memory of the event was not the prep but rather the road safety talk that the snr staff gave..all the grueseom pictures of dismantled heads..bloody gore…etc..all the road accidents from all sorts of causes..and he even had clips taken from cameras that were frm highway..and you really get to see the accident like how it happened! Gosh..it was so real! and the worst thing is that he kept playin again again and again..he totally enjoys it man! ahah..

Well, am just glad that i stayed for the event and didnt leave my manager to handle the event on his own while i go for my holiday in Taiwan..:) And think my GM is pretty pleased with my work since he had a talk with both of us this morning and did asked whose hard work was it for this event..and humbly i said that it was both of us..:) Of coz it was both of us..no way it was mine alone coz my manager was there to help me all this while
But hey i enjoyed the event tremendously..it was fun and i am so glad that the event went well! Weather was good too!
Look out this space for pictures!
