The Social Film - The Beauty Inside

Hello loves, I'm here with another entry by Toshiba! Bet many of you have already watched the trailer of The Beauty inside by now! But for the benefit for those who haven't (you should probably like me on Facebook), here's a quick summary of it.



The Beauty Inside is an interactive social film, presented by Intel and Toshiba, directed by Drake Doremus, starring Mary Elizabeth Winstead, Topher Grace, and all of YOU. It's Hollywood's first social film that lets everyone in the audience play the lead role. So basically, it's a story about this same guy who wakes up looking like someone else everyday. Can you imagine that?!


Young and handsome yesterday, a sexy blonde girl today, and an old man the next. 


*mind-blowing*






TRUST ME IT'S WORTH WATCHING!


Anyway, anybody wonder what Alex's parents went through when he was little? Was he borned a baby and have his sex, hair, eyes and skin colour change everyday? OMG, I cannot imagine being his parents. Does his condition change him into a baby, since the first episode tells that he can turn old?


*mind-provoking*


I can't wait for the subsequent episodes to roll out!
This is toooooo interesting beyond words! I hope the coming episodes can surprise me and, hopefully answer the qns I have!

Meme it like you Mean it!!

Hello hello :) Here's another post sponsored by Toshiba and Intel! This is my FAVOURITE part of their campaign. Great thanks to 9gag and the influx of creative young netizens, our lives are closely knitted with this crazy online phenomenon - Memes!


If you happen to NOT KNOW WHAT IS MEME (you must be kidding me), walk through the MEME factory and museum to familiar yourself with what memes are all about:




*If you are pronouncing "Meme" as "Me-Me", you are doing it all wrong!!*
(It should be pronounced as "meem")



Toshiba has released a series of 12 memes, on their Facebook page. Here are top 5 of my favourite picks! :)


Remember the #SatelliteStar entry that I'd posted?
This is like the movie poster for that! Share your story!



Brain, Y U SO FICKLED?
I always have this problem with choosing the colour of merchandise that I like best, cos they are all so pretty. Lol. I sometimes wish that certain colours are sold out, so it's slightly easier to make a choice.



Waiting is overrated!
Satellite M840-1019G (Intel Core i5-3210M processor) - S$1,199
Satellite M840-1000XG (Intel Core i7-3612QM processor) - S$1,399
(p.s. If you do the math, for a marginal difference of S$200, you can enjoy an i7 processor)

So what are you waiting for?!



THIS IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPEN IN LECTURE HALLS!!
Entertainment.



Sticker lady!!

Have I set you thinking on which of the three fun colours 
has the best reflection of you?

Be a satellite star!

Hello! Hello! I'm actually sitting outside at the CoffeeBean outside Sentosa Beach Station, blogging using my SatelliteM840! Didn't I share about the metallic mirror finish in my previous post (click here if you haven't read)? It's so funny. A couple of beach-goers are starring over at my direction just as I type this. ARE THEY LOOKING AT ME OR THEIR REFLECTION?! Trololol.





Anyway, what better than to start your day being inspired!? I've been talking so much about #SatelliteStar on Twitter lately.



But, what is a Satellite Star, 
and who are the Satellite Stars? 


Well, Toshiba has specially featured 3 Satellite Stars from 3 different countries. And be awed, as they bring you through a journey of hopes and dreams! Trust me, you will never feel the same after watching the coming videos that I gna share with you.

Finding My Own Voice - Tay Kexin (Singapore)

Kexin quitted her corporate job as a brand executive at a local firm to take up singing as a career. Thousand claps for her! She first discovered her passion for singing after joining the NUS Jazz Band. Catch her performing at popular nightspots like, Switch by Timbre (every Thur) and Quarubar (every Fri)!



Show It To the World - Adina (Indonesia)

Inspired by her great grandfather's photos of a traditional Sudanese dance, Adina decided to learn it herself. After mastering it, she went to different studios with a proposal and, after several rejections, began performing on the streets. Adina now tutors young children and anyone interested in learning this long forgotten art.



Art Of Giving - Nattaphon Ong (Thailand)

Ong is an artist. Like what many of us dream for, he get to do what he loves for a living.  He likes drawing about the lives of common people and gifts the drawings back to them. His favourite subjects are people who do the jobs that few others want to do. This is his way of giving, and appreciating these people. To remind them that they are not forsaken.



(Check out Toshiba's Youtube Channel for more videos!)

My favourite has got to be Nattaphon Ong's story. To be able to make your passion your career, and in turn touch others with it. Yes his efforts are little, but isn't the ocean made of many tiny droplets put together? :)


What's my story?
I wish I have a story, that is as inspiring as the featured SatelliteStars, but I don't. But if you'd like to know, here's my story..


So, secondary school was a living nightmare for me. I was public enemy number 1. I started my secondary school life as a shy and quiet kid, who abided by the rules, and spoke a little. Thanks to my gift of good okay looks, I was targeted by school/class bullies. I was pushed over one too many times, cried about school one too many times. But moving forward, I learned to fend for myself, and have a voice of my own. Though there were bumps along the way, I managed to emerge as an alright (I'm just being modest here) young adult! 

Now that I am no longer being bullied, I make sure I don't bully others as well. :) I speak for the weak, give good advices, and never turn a deaf ear when anybody needs my help. I try to inspire, esp to those younger peers with my story - of how I become a butterfly, from that squirmy lil caterpillar.

HI BABY, A LITTLE SURPRISE FOR YOU. ENJOY!

Omg, is that a star? Nono, it's Satellite M840!!!!

OOH-LAH! I'm back with a blog post for you! ^__^ Did y'all enjoy my very enticing Instagram uploads? (Shoot yourself if you are not following me on Instagram; @hnyhnybkdham !!!)


Anywayyys, the good folk over at Toshiba sent this sexy gadget over for me to try out - *dang dang dang* the Toshiba Satellite M840! Check this out:


I SAID S-E-X-Y, DID I NOT?



My favourite part is their Campaign tagline: A Reflection Of You.

Apart from circling around being a #SatelliteStar, inspire, be inspired and all.. You can literally see the Reflection of You. SatelliteM840 is targeted at the young at heart, and


YOU KNOW YOUNG PEOPLE, WE THEY LOVE THE MIRROR. 




The unique metallic finishing on the notebook's surface acts like a mirror! (Being vain and all stalk-ish has never come so handy before! #ifyouknowwhatimean) Imagine spotting your eye-candy from your notebook reflection even before he reaches you.. that extra 30 seconds to brace yourself for the sexiest smile and killer eyes.. And behold the 2 seconds where he/she walks pass. *THAT-CRITICAL-MOMENT* (Let's not deny, we all need that bonus extra time.)



APART FROM THE "SUPERFICIAL", 
I KNOW YOU BOYS LOVE THE STATS & STUFFS.


4 more reasons to make you fall in love with SatelliteM840:-

Sleek Profile: It's the perfect companion on the road with its slim chassis and weighs less than 2kg!! Who loves to carry a heavy computer around? No body!!
Eco Utility: It l
owers power consumption and prolongs battery life. Long hours sitting at Starbucks is love!
HDMI port: I cannot stand laptops/notebooks with no HDMI port! Funshion on my big-screen TV, here I come :)
Intel® CoreTM i7 processor: FULL PROCESSING POWER shuttttuppppp! I need to elaborate no more.




Okay, I gna go play around with it a bit more!! Don't be jelly people. Update y'all with more pictures soon!! Teehee. Meanwhile, click on these these twitter tags:
