Good Pole skills OR Good Photography skills!
Whichever....I thank Linda for taking these pictures of us! She didn't know our routine, so to be able to capture these poses (almost the same as the still images I was trying to extract from a video), she is good!

Beware of imitations
We got a little addicted to our double act that Kelly has requested that we do this shot together.
Immediately after we were done, another couple, Judy and Sheree decided to do their own version...Not knowing what to do with theirs, we decided that we could use their picture for an ad:

weird encounter
Last evening, we had 3 classes back to back. In between handling registrations and transitions, the studio received a call from a lady who spoke funny english, seeking directions to the studio. She had wanted to board a taxi immediately to come and attend a class (she said she read about us and couldn't wait).
As i was busy, my colleague handled the call and gave directions. My colleague said she was fickle a while said coming now, then changing her mind & said she would come tomorow, until finally she called again to say she was at Bugis and would get here in a cab; for info, Bugis to my studio is only 7mins walk away and we told her that! To prove that she was in a cab, she passed the phone to can driver!
She arrived and loudly announced that she was here to observe how we conduct our classes. I explained that our basic classes had commenced and the next one would be an intermediate level, which would start in about half an hour. She asked about our entire week's sechdule and told me she wanted watch every class of the week before deciding. I told her that would not be necessary, besides the fact some are repetition, she should only observe whatever level she felt she was fit for, since she claimed she had learned the dance form in China before, the country she hailed.
Sometime through observing the class, she demanded that Eunice or I, the former who was conducting a class at that point, exhibit our level of pole skills to her. I told her she could go to our website to watch any amount of videos we had uploaded and it is not appropriate for me to interrupt the class that way. She asked why not as they do this in China. I also told over here, we exercise making appointments, & during the appointment, I would be more than happy to demonstrate for her to decide if i am a worthy instructor. Then she harped on the "sincerity" thing which by now I just wanted her out!
Unyielded, I told my colleague to set up the computer and log on to youtube to show her videos. While I was in the office, I did not realise that she had barged in between the transition of 2 classes to ask Eunice for a demonstration. So rude! Eunice, my ever obliging instructor demonstrated some inverts and this woman "invigilated" her moves with arms crossed. I quickly told the intermediate students to fill and studio and took the opportunity to lead her to my colleague who spent the next half an hour "entertaining" her with videos and chit chat. It helped that my male colleague is quite good-looking la, and I'm sure she was "seduced" into leaving the studio for good when he (my colleague) said he was leaving for the day soon! haha...
Before she left, she told us to give her an assessment and see which level she should join....I told "ya ya, we will call you (dun call us)"!
Today I asked my good-looking colleague what should we do if she were to call again ....colleague #2 and I joked that perhaps all these while, she was trying to get our good-looking colleague to "assess" her...hahahahaha

Nice phrase to use
I was bo liao enough to google the infamous "shut up and sit down" and it threw up more than 13 pages of results!
More bo liao was when i was having a 'friendly' argument (oxymoron) with spider friend about who does more domestic work, and i found myself losing, I yelped "SHUT UP AND SIT DOWN" and we both ended up laughing uncontrollably!

A Sad love story
Quote from THE STRAITS TIMES MAY 9 2009
" A week ago, Farrah said to me 'Am I going to make it?' I said 'Yes, you'll make it. And if you don't, I'll go with you'" O'neal on Fawcett
does reading this bring a tear to you, like it did to me?
Anyway to digress, but not to anything cheerier I have been having really weird dreams lately. One of them was quite morbid.
Few nights ago I dreamt I was caught in a gunfire attack of some sort.......I dreamt that spider friend was separated from me and suddenly from afar I heard him instructing me to lie low amidst the many bodies and play dead. I did that and even found some cloth to cover and shield me, all these while I could hear the gunshots and wondering when it would hit me......thankfully no one kicked me in my sleep or I would have dreamt that i got hit! haha...some consolation there eh?

Serial Video Uploader
A few weeks ago, youtube suspended not one, but two of my accounts, i.e. all those videos which took me years to upload...poof....GONE! When I clicked on those links or searched the account names, it either showed up nothing or announced "this account is suspended"
I thought that weird as if they had found anything wrongful with my account or my videos, they would write and advise why and how to stay out of trouble. But to suspend both very different accounts and with different videos? I couldn't help but suspect that it could be some jealous souls who envied the success of some of my videos made a prank or something.
Convinced that that would be the case, I decided not to investigate with youtube, but instead wasted no time in registering new accounts and started some franctic uploading again. To play safe, i even uploaded onto other video portals.
Several weeks later while watching others' videos, I tried my luck searching again and was surprised that my accounts were reinstated! Everything was there! Videos, photos, everything!
Happily I told spider friend "eh, you know what? youtube returned my accounts. Make me waste time registering new ones and uploading them all over"
Spider friend replied " That's why! they suspend you and you upload again. They can't stop you, might as well just let you continue!"
Wallau, I sound so serial!

Suzie has really talented students
For those who have not watched this on facebook, check out our pole practice video last night. I know some of you may be sick of my pole videos, but this one is different....for this video is NOT about me (only)!
First check out celestine's combo...I'm so proud of her as she started out this sport to overcome her fear of "dropping back". She even had problems with a backhook spin in the beginning....Look at her now in less than a year.....we (Eunice and I) are so very proud of you.
Then in the extreme I have the other kind of talented students....natural comedienne.. keep watching til the end....... (Note to Meow: yes I have learnt the song & ready to perform, I even have ready backup dancers...so bring on the music...hahaha)

Get your ITAC2 from Acro Polates
Advertorial
Acro Polates is the Singapore's stockist (scroll down to "International") of this amazing product, ITAC2.
Acro Polates is the Singapore's stockist (scroll down to "International") of this amazing product, ITAC2.
We have stocks for all 4 levels of grip control needed for most kinds of sports, ranging from archery, netball, tennis,water polo, golf, surfing, hockey,netball,rugby etc...Find your grip here.
There is a special formula developed for pole dancing, If a hard pole move has been eluding you due to poor grip, try a good grip aid. Once you build the strength needed for that move, you can start practising without it.
Also as a pole dance perrformer, usually we have little or no time to warm up the pole, like what we would usually do in class, so a good grip aid sometimes does the job. A must-have if you are participating in a performance or competition.
Retailing at S$14.00 per 45g tub. Ask for a sample/tester today, whilst stocks last.
Besides Itac2, we also retail Mighty Grip at S$18.00 per 1/4 oz tube.

Additional Pole Dance Basic Class
Due to additional and last min enquiries, Acro Polates may start another new basic class on 11 May 9pm-10pm. A free trial precedes that on 4 May 7pm-8pm, both class and free trialsubject to minimum participants.Also current fellow Acro Polateasers, do take note of the slight changes of May's class schedules
updated later......
I've become so good at self-taken pictures. Set the camera to 10 secs, run to pole, pose, hold, click!
and if you have time, watch the last part of this video, it's quite funny (people thinking of signing up classes, don't get worried about the stunts in the video, these are very advance moves, beginner moves are just spins and lot easier moves and really fun)

All to ourselves
Mum's birthday is mostly celebrated quite lavishly with full course chinese dinners and with lots of friends, family and her opera students jamboree-ing with her.
But this year she opted for quiet cosy dinners, divisively attended with different smaller groups of people. While this afternoon she met my sister for lunch, I decided to buy her dinner at a nearby chinese restaurant called 福臨門 (Fu Lin Men) since I had to rush back for pole classes right after. My niece did not turn up due to school work load so I asked my 2 other team mates over and there were in total 5 of us.
Throughout the one and half hours we were there, we were the ONLY patrons in the restaurant, not kidding. We enjoyed the best service ever, undivided attention from the restaurant crew and when it was time to light the candles and sing happy birthday, we had the restaurant entourage singing along!

I thought I had become "boring"!
Now that I have finally efiled (thanks to Meow) , i realize I no longer just file as an "individual", I have to account for a business entity as well.
Previously as an 'individual", i realised I can blog anything, rant, scold, b*tch about anything I want. Of late, I thought I have become boring, nothing much to blog, giving excuses that perhaps I am devoting too much time to facebook. But, the truth is, now that I have a business and I represent that business, I actually have a reputation to uphold.....translate to mentally scanning what I can say or blog! Isn't that sad?
I can no longer openly express my displeasure, dislike disapproval for someone or something. Human, especially women can be very petty and of late I have encountered pettiness of the most STUPID kind and from the most unexpected person, but..again, now i can't say it here, as she could be a client, a student, a close confidante, etc etc........sigh (but if you want to know, can, over coffee...heehee)
Even sometimes some casual comments can be misconstrued as something else......so I'd rather just...be quiet...here I can only show you success stories, my videos, my show pictures...or , or...totally unrelated lame stuff that may make someone's day...like the following (contribution of of my dear sister )

Entitled : ALWAYS CHECK YOUR CHILD'S HOMEWORK
This was a homework drawing assignment turned in by a little girl to her teacher
( Here's the reply that the teacher received the following day )
Dear Mrs. Jones, I wish to clarify that I am not now, nor have I ever been, an exotic dancer. I work at Home Depot and I told my daughter how hectic it was last week before the blizzard hit. I told her we sold out every single shovel we had, and then I found one more in the back room, and that several people were fighting over who would get it. Her picture doesn't show me dancing around a pole. It's supposed to depict me selling the last snow shovel we had at Home Depot. From now on I will remember to check her homework more thoroughly before she turns it in.
Sincerely,Mrs. Smith
Am I suppose to find this amuzing?

Suzie enjoys the compliments on her physique
I couldn't care less it they are from the PRC masseuse who are just saying for the sake of winning my business, but it is quite another when it comes from this burly Javanese makchik masseuse who gave me a much needed kneed and commented "wa miss, your body very sor-lid"... :)
But I must say, having lost some body fluids and fats (hopefully) after battling 2 weeks of flu (since return from Guangzhou), I do feel quite lean and tone and I'm loving it. I hope I don't return to my food craving days so quickly!
In fact these are some of the comments on facebook after I loaded my Studio's new Racer top and shorts.
KS at 4:02am April 2
I want to be like you when I grow up.
Suzie Wong at 4:12am April 2

Been stalked?
Apparently I'm such a sort after regular massage patron that the "lao ban niang" (lady bosses) of 2 competitors offer incentives to win me over.
Tina, my masseuse was originally a "full-time" with Shop K. Recently she converted to free-lance (they call it "pao tai", literally translated as "run stage") i.e. she will go wherever there is business for her. As a free-lance, she earns 10% less per customer. The perk of being one, however, is she no longer has to be accountable to one boss (a rather nasty boss), and she now has a wider customer base .
Shop B's boss wasted no time in asking Tina to lasso me over by luring "free-parking" arrangements, which would jolly well save me $3 per visit. When Shop K's boss learned of that, she too reimburses me the parking charges. On top of that, she told Tina that she would re-instate her commission to the old rate if I am retained..
Somehow this is rather dejavu. My sister may recall that in JC, I had 2 ECAs (Extra Curricular Activities) "fighting" over me until they had to call in Vice Principal to make a decision. You may ask why couldn't I join both. The fact was I didn't want my grades to suffer and only would join one. I told them my mother said so!
Sorry for the digress. Anyway tonight after a performance I decided to find Tina again and would usually make an appointment first. For some reasons I didn't call and was told Tina is away on vacation by time i arrived. So I was assigned another lady. I could tell this other lady was both elated and stressed to be picked to attend to me. On one hand she kept apologising that her style is different from that of Tina and that I should guide her how to be as good.... she must have said it at least 5 times within that hour. On the other hand, she was incessantly praising my skin, my hands, my body that i don't look my age (yes she mentioned my age...like huh, how did she find out?) and all these while I was lying down butt naked, made me real--ly uncomfortable, as if like she was offering sexual rather than a massage service. When I told her my body's not that great anyway, that I'm short and a little meaty, she said how could it be when i only eat cup noodles!?!?! Then she said she remember seeing me one night eating cup noodles while waiting for Tina. Oh my, yes! That night I had to wait for 10 mins for Tina and I went to the convenience stall next to it to get myself a noodle. How could she remember something so minute. She also told me she found out why I wouldn't go to Shop B because one of the past masseuse had caused abrasion to me skin. The last draw was she told me she saw me drive my "black" car once and she admired me for being a brisk & sleek driver....... ewwwwwww...Ok enough.....i pretend to have fallen asleep!
I'll wait for Tina to come back before I go for my next massage

I'll wait for Tina to come back before I go for my next massage

My new dress from Guangzhou!
Hi I'm back, refreshed and rejuvenated--NOT! I'll tell you more about that next time.
The better news is....I got myself quite a number of good buys. As the dresses are usually picked off the rack, most of them need alterations of some sort, except this blue dress that fitted me almost like custome-made. Just a tad longer than my five-foot-no-inches. I just need taller heels.
I wore it for my event last night already!

These group of girls very cute, they make me laugh each week. They just learnt pole climb and pole sit and decided to perform some 千手观音(thousand hand buddha) stunts on the pole! Haha...They above picture is the perfected one.But check out the "in-the-making"!
Peek at the reflection.....they are damn funny and tak-glam lor....And what is this grabbing the breast bit! so naughty!
And hello, why you sticking your face out?
Ok corrected, but still very messy! Haha
Someone else trying to pole sit, but not very succesful!

This is quite funny
There's this guy who keeps sending girls to learn pole dancing at my school.
Rumour has it that these girls make-up his "latest" girl-friends. Not sure these girls are learning for what purpose-to satiate his pleasures, or to qualify for his "entertainment" business. But for whatever reasons, my other students joked that why doesn't he just woo me and then he can stop sending girls to my school and learn from me! hahaha, good thinking.
Anyway it's been a while since i loaded any pole pictures or videos, here's one latest one, before I go on my HOLIDDDDDDDDAAAAAAAYYYYYYYY!
It's a super strong move, here's the video to get into it if you interested

Times are really bad!
I would be lying if I told you the economic crunch has not affected the events industry.....I'm so free now I have booked myself a holiday next weekend, yes WEEKEND!
Recently a repeat client contracted me again as the MC for their upcoming company dinner. It has always been a relatively low-key, intimate, not too extravagant kind of event, with an MC, lots of staff performances. And so this year they let me "bao" (be in charged) the whole thing of which i gladly accepted.
Few days later, I received a short email from another event company, one of those that will contract just my singing services. The email read "your company does events? pls advice"
My reply "yes, what up?"
He said he "lost" a deal to me and upon further probing, I learnt that it was this repeat client. I tried to let him see he did not "lose" to me as they had been my direct client.
Later I found out that he had bad mouthed my company.
When the client told him that they had selected ** (my) company, his email reply to them was
"** Company? they are less than a year old in the industry. They must be the cheapest" (exact words).
Ouch! Times must be hard for him to feel so sore!

Tis actually quite nice
It was one of those event where i had to wake up in the morning to pile on make-up to hide those puffy eyes, extra concealers for the eye bags, and worse of all, had to put enough to last through the hot afternoon.
By mid-afternoon, after 2 sets of stage performances which included singing and dancing, and conducting several team-building games, I thought I had sweat enough to clean off the make-up.....
This picture taken was requested by an audience, xiao shi, using her camera some 4 hours later (i.e. 6 hours after putting on make-up). And when she sent it over to me via email today (so sweet of her) I was surprised I actually still look quite good!
