beautiful sunset at Telaga Harbour

Our final shoot day at the lighthouse was a rather productive one, thanks to the weather and of course, the wonderful production team. *smile*

We each had our fair share of fun but regardless, I was thankful that our stay at Nadia’s Inn was finally over. *laugh* Yes, the bed bug nightmare was indeed a traumatising one for me and no, I will never forget my experience with the local doctors. My advice to travellers, always have anti-histamines, tiger balm and a disinfectant spray with you when you’re on a budget trip. *laugh*

I’m finally back in KL. Back to civilization. *laugh* It wasn’t that bad really, but hey it’s always good to be home. *smile* We’re technically done in Langkawi but I’ll resume shoot with the production again in KL once I’m back in town again (taking the first flight out tomorrow morning for another engagement out of the country) next week. Just when I thought the 2^nd half of November would be more relaxed for me (since the ‘H’ Factor campaign this year is over)… *laugh*

Anyway, here are the pics from Langkawi Lagoon Resort. I decided to treat myself to the last 2 nights of the shoot at the hotel for a change. Such a pleasant difference to Nadia’s Inn indeed. *laugh*

Anyways it’s been a rather challenging, and in some ways a rocky month for me so please keep me in your prayers. I’d really appreciate that and look forward to giving you the latest of updates soon. *smile* This blog is one of the few things that keep me sane and I'm glad I have you guys to hold my hand when times get rough. *smile* God Bless and have a great weekend ahead! *grin*

For 3 days we were treated to the comfort of shooting indoors with air-conditioning and proper toilets. *grin* We were at Tun Mahathir’s Galeri Perdana, surrounded by beautiful paintings and personal belongings of Tun himself.

This week, we had a whole group of extras who joined us from set, and I had the privilege to meet some of the nicest people from all over the world. *smile*  

Believe it or not, my good friend Rebecca was also on set with us as an extra! *grin* It’s always nice to have a familiar face around especially if you’re shooting on 22-hour shoot days. *smile* Anyways, when the week is over, we will be transferring to the next location, Langkawi Lagoon Resort. *smile* It seems to be getting better so let’s pray it stays that way ya… *laugh* Wish me luck! *wink*

The last leg of the campaign ended with a blast last Sunday at the Best Western Premier Seri Pacific Hotel KL with a turnout of more than 500 participants from all over Malaysia, including some from Penang, Perak, Kedah, Johor and even East Malaysia! *smile* 

Participants for this last workshop were treated to additional performances by beatboxer Shawn Lee and dancers from Wild Stream Productions. To top it up, the TV stations and members of the media were also there to keep us company and join in the fun. 

It was a finale to be remembered and a campaign to be continued on with. Hopefully with the support of the ministries and more corporate sponsors next year, ‘H’ Factor will be able to reach out to more talented youth across the country as we strive to put Malaysia on the map as an Asian hub for creative content and entertainment. Thank you for sharing the vision and going on this journey with us. *smile* 

Stay tuned for more on ‘H’ Factor and keep your ideas coming in to help us improve ya.. *smile* God Bless!
