China's Next Top Model - Cycle 1

To be frank, I watched this before but I stop after the first episode because I feel that the pictures are lousy and not good at all. But after a few months, I decided to give it a try, and hey~  its actually not that bad... No doubt that some of the picture shots copied from ANTM, but this is the first cycle for China, so its ok~

Yin Ge 殷歌

The first cycle winner... but it happened that she did not get the prize of the competition, which is the contract of NEXT Model Management & contract with Pantene because she was sign pre-showed. Hmmm... maybe this is the rules of NTM in China because I didn't see that its a big deal anyway. Basically this girl rocks the whole show, she never down in the bottom two except on the final 3 and every week she delivers great photo compare to the other girls.

Wang Jia 王佳

For me, she looks a bit similar like Yin Ge to me, their hairstyle are opposite after makeover. Wang Jia is a bit more bubbly compare to Yin Ge, however she shot really nice pic, and the MGM couture pic is so fabulous~ even her runway walk is so strong and she stomped her way through the watery runway~

Yan Xue Qian 閻雪芊

I'm sorry, this girl never come to my mind for going so far in this competition. Even at the final 3, I was like... wtf~ her gain of weight has become a serious issue for her and the judges think that her fatty ass could not represent China to strike the international runway, therefore, out she go~

Zhu Feng 朱楓

She's the only girl that makes me feel like her personality is strong and of course she can take good picture as well. But when she went into the final 3, she quit and left the competition... speechless~ I really don't understand her, she got the big chance to win, but.... lol~

Ma Shu Yi 馬舒怡

She was very sweet looking and kinda feel like a celebrity to me, she was the first one to be eliminated in the competition. But due to Liu Wen Jing's quitting (pregnancy), Ma Shu Yi was welcome back into the competition and immediately she was fierce and set up a high limit for other girls~

Wu Mei Ting 吳美廷

I kinda like her, feel that she looks very healthy to me. But the judges keep on saying she doesn't looks like a model in real person but her picture is good~ I thought she can go quite far in the competition but, seriously, i'm not sure what's the reason she was eliminated~

Tanya Zy 坦雅

She was originated from Russia. Even though its a hit to have a caucasian participating in the competition, but don't you think that 28 to become a model is a bit too old? And she stays in Taipei, is that even consider as part of Taiwan yet?

喜气洋洋

Wish everyone happy & healthy in 2015

Have a prosperous year

meh

Australia's Next Top Model - Cycle 5

Australia Next Top Model is getting better each cycle. Girls in this cycle 5 are adequately good as one another and it makes the competition so fierce and make me so hot whenever i'm watching it. Replacing Johdi Meares is supermodel Sarah Murdoch while Charlette Dawson & Alex Perry as judges.

Top 3

Tahnee, Clare & Cassi

Cycle 5 Winner

Tahnee Atkinson

Being young and curvy, Tahnee's dream is to become a Victoria Secret Runwau model, not sure whether she suceeded or not, but she definitely has what it takes to become Australia Next Top Model. Together with Clare & Cassi, 3 of them are my favorite since the beginning of the show and yay~ they did make it to the top 3 and i believe she will be a swim wear model in future~

1st Runner Up

Cassi Van Den Dungen

She's the most rude girl in this cycle, being as crazy and as loud as she can, she definitely make this cycle a "must watch" everytime she appeared. Even though she was hated by all the girls in the cycle and everyone wish she can be send home, Cassi surprise the judges every week with her absolutely gorgeous photo... Seriously, she is so good that I almost forgive her bad behavior on it. Well, she's still young, what can we expect from her by this age right? Just hope that she can be a successful model in future... 

2nd Runner Up

Clare Venema

This blond smooth icy Clare is so chic and high fashion, i just love her so much~ She is well known of the fashion industry and we can see that she's hunger of the prize. Each week she deliver great picture that keep her safe until the top 3, but on her top 3 picture, her vulnerability look makes her lose her chances of becoming Australia Next Top Model.

4th Place

Adele Thiel

The dark horse of this competition, Adele has shown the judges that she is not the "one-look" girl but she can be as good as the other girls. Starting the competition not that strong and being stiff is a strong strategy; luckily her fair skin match her red hair makes her stand out and definitely she is those "Chanel" girl look~

5th Place

Francesca "Franky" Okpara 

I love her look, even way before the make over. But after make over, her look definitely pop out and so striking~ During the make over time, she cried and being a drama queen, insisting she rather to be send home then chopped off her hair~ lol~ if she was send home by that time, definitely there's a waste and the show will not become so drama either :p

7th Place

Laura Mitchell  

The first Asian girl in Australia Next Top Model, definitely she wins my support. She's not those typical beauty, but she portraits healthy and tough looking to me. I don't really agree on her make over because it makes her look not so good before her make over. I rather they keep her long hair, with big wavy perm instead which will makes her look better~

 

Getaway ~ Koh Lipe

After my Surabaya Trip in mid of last year, I have been working very hard at the office everyday. Finally I managed to get away for vacation to the beautiful Asia-Mauritius, Koh Lipe.

Me and my friends got ourselves the cheap Air Asia ticket to Langkawi, then we take the boat to Koh Lipe. This is the cheaper way compare to if you travel to Bangkok and take internal flight to Koh Lipe. The whole vacation is so relaxing, most of the time we just enjoy ourselves at the sea, sunbathing, snorkeling and island hoping. Though the place is small but the expenses is not that cheap, most probably it has gone expensive, thanks to those caucasian~ And the white girls love sunbathing topless there :D

Nothing much to talk about this trip, but its just for myself to relax and charge back my energy for 2015~

 Sea View

 Island hoping~ we manage to get it 500THB per pax

 Street view 

 Barbecue prawn~ yummy

 My most enjoyable dinner in Koh Lipe is at "King Crab Restaurant"

which 4 of us have seafood that cost us around 5000THB 

Bang Bang Bang - 鄭秀文 Sammi Cheng

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛會正中你要害

請靜候款待

任別人話你刀片般冷酷

(於妖獸都市中　可以一天不發一言)

但是還是信你不是麻木

(找到你的沸點　火會劈劈啪啪再點燃)

等待廢墟中　存活著那片綠

等待暗戀的　贈你想要的結局

等待你所選的　會帶你走出深谷

等待壓抑中　按中了穴位那個滿足

Boom Boom　誰若還未叫痛

Boom Boom　誰若還未知痛

Boom Boom　軟點還未刺中

不是　不願被感動

Boom Boom　誰若還未叫痛

Boom Boom　誰若還未知痛

Boom Boom　敏感求被碰碰

一直　等待被感動

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛會正中你要害

(外貌平靜　你不是不用被感動)

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛叫你痛故你在

(尚未流淚　你只是等待被感動)

就像銀造那子彈的法力

(可穿透心裡邊　一切遮擋感覺的牆

若舊時誤信冷感便無敵

(將盔甲都揭開　今次風風火火愛一場)

一定有首歌　能熱熱你血液

一定有本書　為你添上一對翼

一定有一幅相　會敎你懂得珍惜

一定有位他　敎你笑也會敎你嘆息

Boom Boom　誰若還未叫痛

Boom Boom　誰若還未知痛

Boom Boom　軟點還未刺中

不是　不願被感動

Boom Boom　誰若還未叫痛

Boom Boom　誰若還未知痛

Boom Boom　敏感求被碰碰

一直　等待被感動

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛會正中你要害

(外貌平靜　你不是不用被感動)

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛會正中你要害

(活著無味　你假若不願被感動)

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛叫你愛故你在

(尚未流露　你只是忍住未啟用)

Bang Bang Bang　這種愛會正中你要害

(別又迴避　你體內一直在騷動)

Kekkaishi 結界師 けっかいし

According to the legend, five hundred years ago, there was an insignificant lord who possessed a mysterious power that drew ayakashi (supernatural creatures) to him. A demon exterminator, Tokimori Hazama, was called upon to protect the lord and his castle. The lord's power stayed on the land even when he had died. Thus, Tokimori founded the Hazama clan, who inherited his techniques, to protect the land for centuries to come. This land is Karasumori.

In the present day, Yoshimori Sumimura and Tokine Yukimura, heirs of the Hazama clan, are the kekkaishi that protect Karasumori. They are ability users (people who can use supernatural powers) who use a technique called Kekkai. Kekkai is a form of magical energy barrier which is primarily used to capture and destroy ayakashi that are drawn to this shin'yūchi. Any ayakashi that stay on the land become stronger. Yoshimori and Tokine are to guard the land from the intrusion of ayakashi who try to "power-up" there.

Yoshimori and Tokine suffered a lot of hardships in their responsibilities to protect Karasumori. The ayakashi they must fight are becoming more and more powerful, but they managed to protect the land with the help from Yoshimori's older brother, Masamori Sumimura, and the Urakai ("Shadow Organization"). The Shadow Organization itself is an organization of ability users that is governed by a council of twelve, consisting of high level ability users.

Over the course of the story it is revealed little by little that the legend is full of lies. The real source of Karasumori's power is Chūshinmaru, an illegitimate son of the Hazama clan's founder, Tokimori Hazama, and the Karasumori clan's heiress. Tokimori used forbidden arts to try to give his son unearthly power, but the plan backfired, and instead gave Chūshinmaru the power to draw people's life force, killing everybody around him. Tokimori was forced to seal his own son beneath Karasumori. However, being alone with no aid Tokimori was unable to completely seal off the Shinkai he created. Which allowed Chūshinmaru's power to leak out, and it is this that draws ayakashi to the land.

In the end, with the help of Yoshimori's mother and Tokimori, Yoshimori and Tokine find a new site for Chūshinmaru by displacing the founder of the Urakai from the domain of a land-god that the founder had taken over. To seal Chūshinmaru, Yoshimori's mother sacrifices herself by sealing the domain with herself inside.

烏森之地有著不可思議吸引妖怪的力量，凡是接近那兒的妖怪，都會得到強大的力量而急劇進化、變強。年幼時，因為良守同情一隻妖怪，而使牠產生變化，就在千鈞一髮之際，時音救了他，卻也因此受了嚴重的傷。良守非常自責，下定決心要變的更強，保護時音
