Surpriseeeee! Maybe not 😛 . I mean, you already know I am launching this limited Love Face X #IWillBeOkay collaboration box ever since I mentioned it on my Instagram. I wanted to have another beauty bag/box after the last beauty bag for campaign #2 and I know planning for one would take 3-6 months time so I asked Love Face if they would collaborate with me and it’s a YES. If you’re still wondering who and what is Love Face, you may read all about them at this post, which I’ve written not long ago. Basically Love Face is the one and only website focusing on all Taiwanese beauty brands. Their main focus is sheet mask and so our collaboration is a box full with sheet masks from Taiwan.

With a blink of an eye, #IWillBeOkay is one year old now and has entered into its 4th campaign to date. I have an aim of running a campaign every quarter but right after my #IWillBeOkay Trail Hike ended, I got a call from Clinelle asking for a collaboration. Immediately I went into planning mood. I already knew what I want as I have spoken about it for so long, even before the trail hike event. Clinelle was looking forward to “re-introduce” their Hot Body Shaper Cream and my fitness event fits the bill.
The event was supposed to happen in April, a month after 3rd campaign ended. But due to the venue issue, it was postponed to early May. Still not too bad. And since this 4th campaign happened so early, I had more time off now 😀 . Planning this Metafit event was way easier than planning a full-on outdoor event like the trail hike because of many reasons such as people management, safety, goodie bags, T-shirts and so on. Due to bad experience from the last event whereas 3 sets of goodie bags and meal was stolen, I took everyone’s advice and charge a minimum fee this time. The fee of RM35 per person is not even enough to cover the coach fee, brunch and the advertising I put on Facebook as well as Instagram. And because there is a charge this time, people are reluctant to sign up unlike the last event. Let’s not even get to the part where I get a lot of sh*t from people asking for medal, cert and many more.
26th July 2016 was the best day of my 2016 and I shared it with Laneige Malaysia for their annual Waterful Sharing Campaign. Usually media shy away when it comes to charity but I am usually the first one in line when it comes to charity.
Laneige Waterful Sharing Campaign returned for the fourth installation this year 2017 and continued its collaboration with Global Peace Foundation (GPF) in providing clean water access to rural community. This comeback is to also resume 2016’s effort whereas the two Kampung – Kampung Binjai Pahang and Kampung Ulu Geruntum Perak will receive an additional four water filtration systems each. This additional is to aid the increasing villagers demand for clean water. But this year, two more new Kampung will receive this year’s chapter of initiative. The newly identified Kampung are Kampung Padang Pahang and Kampung Poh Perak. Both Kampung is about 10 to 20 minutes drive from last year’s Kampung and they are recommended by the Tok Penghulu. Therefore, a total of 880 residents across four Kampung will be benefited from this year’s campaign.
Yesterday was the celebration of Earth Day 2017 and just as the past 2 years, The Body Shop Malaysia in collaboration with Free Tree Society once again gave out 2,000 saplings of 25 different species this year at two different location; eCurve Petaling Jaya and Setia City Mall.
Last year I was invited over to join their celebration but I had another responsibility to take care of so I was absent. This year I am so happy that The Body Shop invited me over again for their third year in giving away free trees. Initially I thought I was going over to help them to plant some trees or at least to depot some plants for the visitors. I was so ready to get my hands dirty and I was even geared up in my sports attire for that 😀 . It turns out I do not need to do all that.
Many of you know that I run but I think not many of you know that I am also into bodyweight HIIT training as well. In fact, I sort of slowed down my running for HIIT training. And the kind of bodyweight training I am into is not the normal version but rather a more intense workout named Metafit. I spoke about having regular Metafit session for my #IWillBeOkay ‘Fight Against Depression’ Awareness Campaign for so long. Even way before I started planning for #IWillBeOkay Trail Hike event. Because the trail event needed a lot of planning so that took off first.
Initially I am skipping the coming quarter (June) campaign as I am drained out from the last event. However when Clinelle asked to collaborate for an event for their Hot Body Shaper Cream, I jumped onto the opportunity. Hence this #IWillBeOkay Shape Up Metafit Training. Clinelle Hot Body Shaper Cream AND Metafit is a perfect combination!
Wow. I cannot believe it has been a month since #IWillBeOkay Trail Hike event was held. Everything happened so fast! The idea to have this event came right after I ended my 2nd campaign, which was the #IWillBeOkay Beauty Bag. Then the sourcing for sponsorship starts after I made a call to Ariff to ask him if he would lead the runners for my event. He said yes and I started making plans. Comparing to the beauty bag, this was much more easier as it does not involved a lot of sponsors or rather no key sponsors at all that I need to answer to. Everything was down to me and what I want basically.
