Ballooning At Vivo City!

I'm there again!
Moses beat me flat by selling off his Octopuses! *I swear they're evil!* Lol!
My dragon couldn't fly off the shelves! =(
Sad case was I forgot to bring my wallet out!
Only realised at the end of the cab ride... Luckily Moses was there!
Would love to thanks Auntie June too! She bought me dinner!
Bad bad sales..
No choice but to evolve my dragon!

Fierce OK!
Now my dragon spits flames! Woo~!

It's gonna burn the octopuses alive! =X
We'll see how powerful my fire dragons are next week! Haaa! =D

PS. Auntie Joan is sooooo CUTE!

Balloon Jamming At Mac & SAM Guest Night

One hell of a jammed packed activity day man!
Met Moses, Jazz, Brodrick & ZhiQuan for balloon jamming at Yishun Mac in the afternoon..
Also gotta check out their skill level before Moses could pass them coming Sunday's event..
Did they pass? Guess they did?

Jamming's always fun with new ideas!
Today's creations include...

This!

Can you recognise it just by one look?

It's Paul's version of the LASER GUN! =D

I realise if you remove the handle.. It looks like a toy..
ADULT TOY.. =X
More specific? For ladies.. =P

Soon this blog's gonna be rated censored. =S
Anyway, the next balloon's more of an improvement..

Da Masquerade Mask!

Well, this mask seriously sparked off even more ideas!
Right Moses? =D

Enough of balloons & time for some magic!
Headed down to Singapore Association of Magician's (SAM) Guest Night!
Brought Kamal down as a guest..
Met Kyle who felt like a prostitute standing by the streets waiting for me, afraid that some bare-chested old uncle would buy him to a hotel.. =X
Anyway.. It was a fun fun night with lots of catching up with my old magic buddies and lots of magic performances!
Too bad Kyle & I couldn't do a duo act cos of time limitations but we each performed our own acts!
Poor Kyle.. (Remember to post your bloopers videos up!) =D
Not much photos.. Was enjoying every single performance.. Lol!

That's our host for the night..
Mystifying Imran!

Doing this sword through neck..!
It's darn heart pounding!

That's Calvin!
First time seeing him perform...!

The guest invited up on stage is the silver human statue with the birds in his hands standing in orchard road!
Lol! So cute! He stood so still!
Funny guy!

Last but not least..

My magic buddy Kyle!

Night lots of fun!
Hope the guests had fun too! =D

Kyle Ravin!

It has been a year and a half since I joined the Singapore Association of Magicians (SAM). Met magicians, magicians & more magicians there! Familiar faces & names like Jeremy Pei, Nique Tan, Kiki Tay, Imran, Kyle Ravin & also not forgetting... Paul =P are all there..!

Oh well, this post will be specially for a very very close magic buddy of mine, Kyle Ravin. For those who have caught the TV show "Maya" on Vasantham Central, you might know him for performing amazing magic effects and illusions. Kyle 's the Man man! At just 20, same age as me, he's so much more accomplished! He has his own TV magic series, he does beautiful stage illusions, what more? Yes! He produces birds too! (Layman term har!) Haa~

I've seen Kyle perform numerous times, even had a chance to work with him on a couple of occasions such as Republic Polytechnic's 2007 Theatre Magic Show. Yes! I love his stage presence! Whenever on stage, he's always so confident, so full of energy! (Wonder where all that come from, you gotto tell me how some day bro!) He's show is exciting, dynamic & extremely fun & enjoyable to watch too!

Kyle might look scary at times.. Haa! But in fact he's a bloody joker! I laughed at the things he says on stage.. It's so damn funny, I don't know why..! Off stage, Kyle's a great buddy, a terrific friend whom I could easily approach.. It has been an honor to have such a buddy! Hope we would work together more often in the future! Remember what you said the other time? "We are the next generation." I see a great future ahead of you!

And.. Haa! I miss you la!
Sorry bro! I've been MIA for SAM meetings & gatherings.. =P
Will see you soon! =D

That's us..!

So gay... Lol!
