CNY at RedRibbon Days

Chinese New Year at RedRibbon Days' office this year was amazing. The owners of Menara TSH organised lion dance at their building this year and the stunts that the lions did were amazing (below)


After the lion dance performance, the lions came to our office to bless everyone. Some photos below:
The picture above is our meeting room.

The lions also blessed our work stations (above)

The lions also were at Sherin's room to bless her and her office (below)

Basically what we have to do after the lion comes to greet and bless us, we are supposed to give them angpows but guess what was the first thing our Founder and CEO did. Hint - That is the first thing she does that to all food that is served to her at restaurants.

Yup! Photos first before angpows. Haha!

ATV Malaysia

I am blessed to be able to do most of the adventurous experiences at RedRibbon Days. What can I say, these are the perks since I love going for the experiences with our corporate clients and our RedRibbon Days Founder and CEO Sherin Wong believes that we have to try and test experiences to make sure they are safe (especially high risk experiences) before we upload them on our website. So, there are quite a few experiences that we dropped from our website because they failed our quality test.

One of the experience which I love and have done many many times is ATV experience. This is an amazing experience that our retail customers love to get for their partner's birthday/ anniversary and corporate loves it too. We definitely can accommodate from 2 till 20 customers at one time. We have organised for 40 customers at one time but the first group has to go first and when they are done, the second group can go for it. If you are not sure what an ATV looks like, please find the picture below:

As you can see, there are quite a lot of ATVs and the ATVs are maintained very well. There are quite many trails that we provide but my favourite and the most often trail that I have done is ATV Waterfall Adventure. I like it because I have done is so many times but everytime is still exciting. 

The best thing about this trail is you get to enter the jungle to get to a beautiful waterfall. (below)

I heard that the beautiful waterfall for this trail is called Sofea Jane Waterfall. Reason to this is because many many years ago, a production crew shot a movie at this waterfall and there was a scene where Sofea Jane swam in this waterfall.
The water is cold and refreshing. You have an option to picnic at the waterfall if you like but usually we have a break for 10 minutes and proceed back.

I have never watched the Sofea Jane movie so I name this waterfall Lina Teoh Waterfall. Why? Because RedRibbon Days organised an ATV experience for Lina Teoh. The picture below:

Oh sorry, wrong picture. Please check the picture Below instead:


Now you see why I named this waterfall the Lina Teoh Waterfall :)

Lucky Draw

Do you believe in lucky draws? Oh, let me rephrase my question, are you the type who always win lucky draws. I, however, have never won any lucky draws in my life. Whether it's raffle tickets or those competition where you drop your business card and win a meal/hotel stay.

Although I cant do much for raffle tickets, I believe the type of lucky draw that you drop your business card where you can win a meal or a hotel stay is based on how you drop your card. Trust me, because now I always win.

How? Like I say, it's how creative you can be when you drop your business card in the bowl. One good example was during an event that RedRibbon Days organised for a corporate client in a hotel.

Check the picture below: 


There was a bowl next to the sign but I chose not to drop my business card in the bowl. After all, the instruction didnt say, Drop your Business Card in the Bowl next to this sign, did it?

Paintball Experience

I got reminded by our RedRibbon Days Founder and CEO Sherin Wong that I haven't blogged in ages. Well I guess she's right. The last time I blogged was in July 2011. 

I guess when you are happy doing what you are doing, time flies and it's almost 2 years since I last blogged. I was looking my picture collection on my laptop and I decided to blog about my paintball experience that I did sometime last year.  It was a corporate paintball experience that we organised for a corporate client. 

Reza and I were the lucky 2 that got to do the paintball experience with our corporate client. Come to think of it, I'm very blessed to have a colleague who enjoys working on weekends. Seriously, Reza and I love working on weekends especially when it comes to doing experiences with RedRibbon Days' corporate clients.  
Reza loves paintball - if you ever meet him, ask him for his business card. That's his favourite experience. As for me, ever since I played paintball with Sherin (aka Super Duper Sharp Shooter that shot a paintball pellet in my ear), I don't enjoy paintball anymore. So, the only shooting I did was with a camera that day (below). Oh yes, I'm the shorter but cooler person on the right although I wasnt holding a gun. At least I wasnt wearing a tiara. Haha!

A clearer picture of Reza (below) looking cool.


An even better picture of Reza (below). I think this is my favourite picture of Reza. Haha!




Okay, enough of making fun of Reza. 

The paintball experience that we have at RedRibbon Days is very fun. We call it the jungle paintball. It feels like you are in a middle of a jungle. Check out the pictures below and yes, the only thing I shot was with my camera that day.






Oh yes, did I mention that the winner on that day is the lady below? She killed everyone.
