iLuminate in conjuction with Genting's 50th Anniversary, Thanks to HITZ FM!!!

Good Friday everyone!

How has your Friday been so far? It is a very good day for me today. I got to have breakfast with my niece before I got to work today, had no trouble with the bus (which was always nowhere in sight), then I received a very interesting SMS.

It appears I have won 2 tickets for iLuminate: Artist of Light at Resort World Genting from Hitz FM, in conjunction with Genting's 50th Anniversary! I remember just stumbling upon Hitz FM website to look for something and came across the contest. It is one of those "Fill in the blanks, why you would like to win passes" kind of contest. I have never been selected for these kind of contests and this being the first, got me jumping for joy!

The bonus for this contest was that I would win a room stay at Genting too! Time for a holiday that I have always needed. I have not been to Genting in a while now. Time for a 2 day relaxation.

iLuminate is actually a dance group who dress in black as they fuse music, dance and technology using synchronized LED light displays for a WOW effect. You can check them out in the video below.

So who and what exactly is iLuminate? Let me give you a little idea of their background.

iLuminate is a company based on the fusion of technology and dance from New York. They have competed at America's Got Talent in 2011 and made several international appearances. You can easily see them on stage with Grammy-winning superstars such as Christina Aguilera, The Black Eyed Peas, David Guetta, Chris Brown, etc. You may have also seen them on the Ellen DeGeneres show!!!

Don't miss out on the show! It has started since 3rd April and will be on til 28th June 2015 at the Genting International Showroom!!! It starts at 8.30pm and lasts for 75 minutes! (I wonder where they get all that energy...)

Enough talk. I am anxious to watch it!!! I shall write more after I watch it in a few weeks!!! 

Dream Trip to Macau

I finally had the chance to visit Macau last month. However, it was a very short trip as I arrived at noon and I was rushing back to Hong Kong the next afternoon. I did not get to do much around Macau and I hope to go there again soon.

As I came back to Malaysia, I found out that there was a contest that is held by Nuffnang together with the Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO). 3 Nuffnangers with the most interesting Blog posts on their dream trip to Macau will be flying to Macau to experience a 3D2N all expenses paid holiday (including return air ticket and 2 nights accommodation at a 4-star hotel). This is my opportunity to try and win a holiday back to Macau to continue my uncompleted tour!!!

What exactly are the three most amazing things that make me want to revisit Macau? It would be nothing more than Sightseeing, Food and The House on Dancing Water.

Sightseeing. This is the one thing I missed out a lot during my trip. I had no clue what to expect in Macau as my friends told me to leave it all to them. Little did I know that there were not much on their minds. 

Buildings are very unique in this city, even the floors. You can find many kinds of buildings here, from historical to modern architectures and all the casinos are colourfully lit up at night. How could one visit this city without a camera to capture all the beautiful images? I definitely could not.

   

As for food, many have told me Macau is a food paradise, not just for its Portugese Tarts. With the help of my friends, I managed to find some places with good food that could not be found on travel magazines. There were local delicacies and also desserts that gave me a foodgasm.

Dim Sum in Macau is very different compared to Malaysia. They are absolutely delicious.

  

I also had the chance to have some street food by the beach!

Last but not least, House on Dancing Water is the highlight of the trip. I was late for the show previously and missed about 10 to 15 minutes of the show because we were not allowed in for being late. I was so sad. However, it was a very good show, money well spent. It was amazing how water could fill up the entire stage in seconds and also vanish the same way! What made me tear up was the bikers and their stunts. It was so amazingly dangerous I couldn't help my excitement. It was a great birthday treat for myself.

I love travelling and I also love travelling at my own pace. I do not like to rush in holidays and so in my previous Macau trip (click HERE to read about it), I didn't get to enjoy much. So please, Nuffnang and Macau Government Tourist Office (MGTO), grant me the chance to revisit this wonderful city and see more of its culture at my own pace. 3 day would be the best ideal time to spend at Macau.
