End Of My Days As An MTV Freelancer
Now that the MTV Asia Awards are over, my stint as an MTV freelancer is over as well, so I headed back to the office to do my clearance and all that stuff. It was a very, very fun experience. Even though I left past 8:30pm almost everyday and with certain nights staying till past [...]
Genting – Day 2: My Room!
Last night in Genting for pre-work on the MTV Asia Awards ‘08 (until next Thursday) and it’s been back to back long days. Today is pretty cold and pretty foggy (pics tomorrow), but for tonight I wanted to just share with you my room in First World Hotel.

And no, it’s not like hell at [...]
First Day Of Work At MTV (Again!)
Just got back from my first day of work back at MTV. I started the day at 10am and ended at 8:45pm.
“What?” you say? “So late?” you ask?
The truth is I hardly even noticed that it was so late because
