7up goes Au Naturale!

Whoever heard of sodas/soft drinks ever been good for you?

Sometime ago Mike told me that every time he got sick as a kid, his mom would always get him 7up to drink.

When he told me that I didn't believe him.

Hello, my mom boils me horrid Ginger Tea and various other herbal nonsense while he gets to have a soda when he's sick! How unfair is that?

And we Asian kids are not even allowed regular sodas because it makes us "cough"!

It seems impossible but here's what Google says:




Lo and Behold, the angmohs DO drink 7up when they are sick!

The reasons seem to be unclear - something about the bubbly making you burp???

Of course, loads of people also argued with this method, stating that soft drinks are full of artificial flavourings and can never be good for your body.

Well now believers of this 7up-curing-illnesses myth can be even happier!


Notice anything different?

7up, the no. 1 best-selling lemon lime flavoured soft drink in Singapore, have just gone au naturale!!





The same great taste but now made with natural flavours! YAY!


And to celebrate this, 7up is giving away movie tickets!! Not sure how that's relevant, but it seems good for us anyway.

Erm, maybe you guys can make a guess how many movie tickets are going to be given away...?



50? Nope...


100? Nope...


1000? Still quite far from it...


Correct answer is...

5,208!!!!!




That's just plain ridiculous. I can't even imagine how large a box needs to be to store that amount of tickets. Ok lah maybe not that big, but still!

This amount is actually the largest ever given by a beverage company.

SEVEN
movie tickets are just WAITING to be grabbed EVERY HOUR EVERYDAY for a month till the 31st of July!


Here's what you have to do to get 'em:


1) Buy a 7up anywhere

2) Login to 7up.com.sg

3) Key in your batch code! To know what this is, click on the website!


And fill up the form!

4) Invite 6 friends to watch a movie with you! I hope you have 6 friends.

5) Once they confirm, you'd have a lucky draw chance!


If your invited friend wants to win the tickets too, they can also do so!! Although if my friend also wins tickets and doesn't invite me as one of his/her 6 I'd be so annoyed. HAHAHA see 7up contest also must have etiquette one!!


After joining, you can go enjoy your naturally lemony 7up!








YUMS!


Check out 7up's new TV ad!





It's not fair that when I was 4 Fido Dido become a star and he looked like that. Now I'm 25 and he didn't age at all - still looks the same!

Fido Dido is sexy......


As you can see he is in love with me.






Aww! Don't be jealous baby I still love you the most!



Click here to get your tickets!!






Very expensive nowadays can get free must get free!!





P/s: Totally irrelevant but I'm awesome at the 7up game!!

Advertorial

Ok I don't know if this really counts as an advert since I'm just urging you guys to join in the next big fun Nuffnang blogging event!



And it's a....




What is a flash mob?


A flash mob, as defined by wikipedia, is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse!!


It's really funny to watch!


I super love to see the expressions on incredulous people's faces.


Check this out:



17 million views on how a group of people stood FROZEN in Grand Central Station in New York!


It's mad hilarious!


Here's more examples of flash mob photos:



Underwear flash mob!


Mafia flash mob?


Startling passers-by is so fun

It's all gonna be happening in Singapore!



Nuffnang is organising a FLASH MOB event right at the heart of Orchard Road - HEEREN!



We are all gonna be wearing PAJAMAS...


Though I don't think our people will look like that


And silently dancing!


Why PJs? Well, this event is linked to THIS Nuffnang Blogging Contest, where bloggers were all invited to write about whether they think Singaporeans dress badly. (IMHO, yes)


And why this flash mob?



BECAUSE we want to prove that even though Singaporeans dress badly, we still look f-ing hot in simple pajamas!



Professional photographers and videographers will also be there to record the whole event. =)

This will be the first blogger flash mob in Singapore, and plus I'm totally excited about the chance to wear skimpy pjs out in public so I'm totally gonna be there.


YOU GUYS MUST COME TOO!

You Awards

Advertorial

You know, I've thought that I have a really cute butt, but there seems to be no contest for me to join to show off my ... erm... favourite asset! Perhaps you also suffered the agony of braces for years and want more than praises for your teeth? Or perhaps you have a really toned physique and you think you deserve more than just appraising looks for it?

Well congrats then coz it is Watsons' annual YOU AWARDS, the award that's all about you! And you can actually win money for looking good!




Watson came up with a grand total of 8 categories for people to pit against each other! No 'butt' category, but they do have:


Healthy Hair
for hair that gives you confidence throughout the day

Fit Figure
for the body that is taut, toned and full of energy.

Flawless Face
for a face made amazing with make-up magic

Healthy Skin
for a skin that glows with health and radiance

Friendly Face (Female)
for the face that speaks the universal language of friendship

Friendly Face (Male)
for the face that speaks the universal language of friendship

Sunny Smiles
for the smile that lights up the room when you walk in

Sporty Physique
for the body that loves exercise and the great outdoors



So many!

With 8 different awards it's much easier to win isn't it? Honestly, just pick whatever you think has the least people join and go join it! OK I can't decide which one that is... I guess less people have fit figures? But I can't join that...

Ahem. Anyway, to entice you to read on I have to let you know the amazing prizes!



Wait for it...



Wait...




$2,000 for the winner of each category

PLUS


1 year modeling contract for Glow magazine

PLUS


1 year's supply of the sponsors' products!




Great prizes or what!

And to register is surprisingly easy! Check out the simple registation page here.

All you have to do is to keep a Watsons receipt (any amount will do!) and fill up the form by telling Watsons why you think your feature is unique in 400 words or less.

And then post up 2 photos of yourself! Easy right?


Now, just because I'm a Know-it-all like that, here's some pointers on how I think you can have a better chance of winning 2 categories... Flawless Face and Sunny Smiles!!


First, dress up in nice clothes and preferably a noticeable accessory! First step to being shortlisted is to be noticed!! (Mine is the hairband)

You have to put make up though, being bare-faced is obviously lame for a make-up contest.


Ugly without make-up

Everyone who knows me knows I've been using ZA's two way cakes ever since I was 13! It has always been my favourite!

Recently Andie introduced to me Revlon's awesome liquid soft-flex foundation and it has officially joined my make up family!

It's really, really cool! The foundation has a crazy magic formula that lets it stay on your face for HOURS AND HOURS. The texture is a little like... deodorant. You know how when you put deodorant you can't really 'rub' it off? It's like that! But powdery!

And miraculously enough it doesn't ever (EVER) let your t-zone shine, no matter how oily your skin is. Marvellous.

However, I don't like the colour as much as I do ZA's powders, so I do a mixture of Revlon on T-zone and Za all over.


(And btw these are really my own opinions Revlon is totally not paying me to say this)


Put a little on your sponge just like that.



Spread it evenly... Apply ZA...

And your base is done!



Glam up your peekers with loads of mascara!


On my lower lashes - Loreal's lash fibres and Rimmel's mascara as the second coat because it's a nice shade of brown.

And my eyes are done!


Next step is for Sunny Smiles!

First you go brush your teeth real clean!!!


And then...





Remember to apply lip colour because nobody wants to see pale and cracked lips!


You can cam-whore while you are at it:







There! You are all ready to take photos! First for your Flawless Face Award...

Have a few for selection.

You can try the classic act chio pose...



Or I'd suggest a pose more special so that you get noticed!



Like this? :D


And as for the Sunny Smiles Award...



Just make sure you are feeling really happy when you are taking it, because a smile can always reach your eyes, and those are the best kind of smiles!


Now that you've got your photos, make sure the pictures you have are clear, sharp and bright!

Then you can send them in HERE.

Recruitment is open from now till June 10th only so hurry!


AND WAIT!

If you are not interested to join in the contest, you can still join in the fun by voting!

Voters also get prizes! The 8 lucky voters who correctly vote for the correct category winners will stand to win attractive product hampers each worth up to $50 in value and a $100 Watsons Voucher!

However, voting only starts on the 18th of June so there's a long way to go.


If you are joining, Good luck! =D
