My mom was in town for 3 weeks so I brought her around Singapore and Asia. She has been here many times but the last time was 12 years ago. I have also wrapped up shooting for my very first drama series here in Asia. It will premier first on MediaCorp Channel 5 next March here in Singapore. It should make it's way into different countries though as well. I am playing Danny (a womanizer) along side Utt (MTV VJ), Linda Liao (Taiwanese Singer) and Joanne Peh (MediaCorp Artiste). It's about 4 friends and their crazy lives. It turned out really funny and entertaining. What's your favorite TV series?

What an amazing last two weeks I had... One of my best friends Adi came to finally visit me in Singapore from Switzerland. Starting off with a welcoming/housewarming party at my place on his first day.. a couple of relaxing days in Singapore.. events.. dinners and parties to a great weekend in Malaysia. He met my family in KL.. my dad.. my very good friends Josey, Vijen and Co. For once I stayed at a hotel.. the Westin with view over the city and especially the Twin Towers. He even met a hot girl from Malacca... :-) And as usual guess what happened... we extended our stay once again. Had a fun Karaoke night.. ya know.. Europeans espially Swiss don't do Karaoke. But after a couple of drinks we got him to sing.... yeeeeeeaaaaaaahhhhh Adi.. go Adi.. go Adi.. go Adi... Last week we got to chill a couple of nights back in Singapore until moving on to Manila from Wed to Fri... hold on.. guess again what happened.. we extended our stay again... twice.. actually we missed our first flight. Ok we admit... kinda on purpose. We didn't even try to catch our second flight the next day. Even though he had a flight to catch on last Sat night back to Zurich. He simply postponed his Singapore Airlines (best airline in the world) flight free of charge and we stayed in Manila til Sunday. Oh well.. here you got the proof... it's not just me who loves Malaysia and the Philippines.. it's simply ADDICTIVE! One love to Adi.. btw you can check out his picture on the photo/video albums on the right hand side. NOOOOOOOOOOOW it's time for my MOM to come in. Yep.. my dearest mom is arriving on Wed for a couple of weeks. She'll be travelling all around Asia though. Can't wait to see her since it's her birthday on Thursday. Happy Bday MOM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Wow... all Mobbers out there... THANK YOU so much for voting for me!!! I was going to vote for all my blogging Mobbed friends on my friends list but just realised that I am only allowed to vote for a certain amount of people during 24 hours. Oh well.. that means I will be voting everyday for you guys. Thank you soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo much for your support. Life is all about respect and appreciation!!! Respecting your family, friends, loved ones, nature, other cultures, animals, life and last but not least yourself!!! We don't have to live with each other (cause there are people with different lifes, opinions, culture, religion etc.) but we definitely have to be able to live next to each other... respect one another. So it's about time to say THANK YOU to everyone that has crossed my path of life.. if it's in person or just thru internet and just support in whatever way! THANK YOU!!! I have realised why I am doing what I am doing when this amazing person stepped into my life for just a few minutes couple of years back in Switzerland. She said that she lost her job and her boyfriend broke up with her.. She came home.. switched on the TV.. Saw one of my shows and I could put a smile on her face.. WOW.. That's why I love what I am doing. To be able to spread positive energy.. Get the same energy back from you guys and be able to spread even stronger energy. THANK YOU to all my friends all over the world. Switzerland.. Malaysia.. Philippines.. Singapore.. Just got back from LA/Vegas and it was just amazing to spend time with my friends over there. THANK YOU!!! You never know when your last day will be but until then.. THANK YOU for being there for me. I will always be there for you.. hopefully many years to come...

Back in Singapore.. Just love it here in Asia. Had an amazing time in good old Europe though. Man.. I've been to London so many times but I am amazed every time I go again. Another place on earth with a very special vibe. The Madonna concert was off the hooooooooooooook!!! Oh my god.. what a show! And we were basically in the front row.. next to sexy Victoria Beckham. Switzerland was great too... Seeing my mom, family, friends and last but not least my goddaughter Shayenne is always a huge pleasure. Btw... check out the photo section (click on the "Photo/Video Album" icon on the left hand side).. I posted a whole bunch of new pictures from my trips. And YES... FINALLY I uploaded a pic of my lovely mom.. MOM.. LOVE YOU!!! Check them out and let me know what you think. I was supposed to go to LA this weekend but since it's the MTV Philippines Awards on Monday I am trying to go there.. Will present an award. Hopefully I can reschedule my flights. Can't wait to go back to beautiful Phlippines. And MALAYSIA... we are also soon going to come to my home country. Can't wait to live it up with you guys. In the mean time.. be good............

Looooooooooondon! Man I have been in London for a couple of days and it has been off the hook. First I went to Switzerland last weekend.. Had a blast with my mom and friends. Yes... I took a lot of pictures. Will post them once I get back to Singapore. Then I arrived in good old England to meet up with the Mobbed Crew. We shot straight away on the first day. Had a great shoot on Picadilly Circus. Catch Mobbed from London.. soon on MTV. For the first time we also shot a lot of behind the scene stuff and I even have my own small camera to film what I experience on the crazy streets of London. You should be able to get all of that on mtvmobbed.com pretty soon as well. We checked out if Big Ben is really as Big as they say.. if the Queen wears underwear or not.. For that I tried to break into the Buckingham palace. As you can tell.. there's a lot of crrrrrrrrrrrazy stuff comin at cha. Tonight is the big night though.. Madonna concert at the Wembley Arena. Looking forward to that!!!!! We will follow the Asia winners of the Madonna/Motorola contest in a limo to the concert. Yep.. that's gonna be hot.. in cold.. rainy.. grey London! Aiiiight.. I gotta grab some Fish and Chips. Word...
