#22 Take Me Out

Well well it is time to blog about my temporary moment of "fame":3 This was sometime in November.

Anywho, one of my lecturers asked our class if we wanted to go to KRU Studios in Cyberjaya to be part of a live audience for the Take Me Out show. Its actually a show from the UK, as usual Malaysia will remake our own version hahaha. 

On the bus I was feeling very queasy :S Had an uncomfortable ride cause I felt I had to puke/burp. Got car sick. Aaaaaaand eventually puked.... in a plastic bag. Heh heh. Nadia was frantically shouting, "ANYONE GOT PLASTIC BAG?!?!" Hahahaha. 

You know that moment where you need to puke but you have nowhere to puke and you're holding in your puke and when there's no choice you just have to swallow back your puke.....

Yup. 

Anyway, in the midst of being nauseous, I got a phone call and in a nutshell they said I was chosen to be a contestant in the show; then asked for my dress size and shoe size. Was ecstatic for a moment.....then got back to my nauseous-ness. A few other girls from the foundation class got picked too.

*Found out in the end that it was my lecturer who picked our names and gave it to the person to call us* Lecturer thinks I yam outspoken. Hehhhhhh *sorry, bangga*

After we reached, we had to immediately go get dressed + make up + hair + whatever else; while the rest went on a tour of the studio and had lunch. Boooo I also wanted to go on tour... and eat. The whole dress up part took quite long and I didn't have anything to eat T.T 

I am lucky the dress fit me alright and that I didn't get the other pink dress that the other girl got...because I would look sooooooooo chinese in that. And its very body hugging which I don't really fancy.. Hehe. 

This is how the set looks like : ) 

That stairs is where all of us ladies will walk down during the beginning of the show, then walk across the aisle to our podiums. 

Small chit chat with Naz, one of the hosts of the show.

Lady setting up the mic for me...

My first and very own podium :3 

*jakun*

Made friends with Soon Eel (on the left) and Dalie (on the right) hehe. Soon Eel said she's been on the show for like 10 episodes and haven't gone out with any guy. Hahaha. 

Host Julie Woon. i.e. hot stuff

Guy in the middle is one of the ones contesting... I think he works on a boat or something. Forgot. Hahaha he sang some song after that on the 3rd round to WOW the ladies.... But I think when he reached the high pitch it sounded a bit... funneh. 

Hiding behind my podium during break time. Its actually quite tiring just standing there the entire time and having the smile constantly because the director guy said "There's 8 cameras, and if you don't smile, pretty sure there's a camera that will catch you not smiling." Hahaha. 

Naddie!

I look like a china doll.... Tbh I don't really fancy blue eyeshadow. I think it looks weird. Or maybe because I don't even use eyeshadow. Ha ha ha. 

Hazel! Credits to her for all the pictures. 

Fuzzy : ) 

They were trained before the show to applause really loudly and scream whenever the show starts. Lols. 

The most surprising part of the show was when the 4th guy (last guy) came out..... and it was someone I actually knew. Ruben Chai....... from church...... my brother's friend. Oh goodness hahaha I immediately pressed my button :P 

* * * * *

Brief explanation of how the show goes : 

30 girls, 4 men. 

Round 1 : Guy will introduce themselves.

*Ladies can choose to accept/reject by leaving their lights on/pressing their button to off it*

Round 2 : Ladies will watch a video about the guy. 

*Same option for the ladies*

Round 3 : Guy will "impress" the ladies by doing some kind of performance.

*Same option for the ladies* 

If more than 2 ladies wants the same man, the guy instead will choose amongst them which 2 he favours most, and he'll ask them a question. I guess depending on their answer, the guy will pick the one most suited to him. 

Then they'll go on ONE date. The end. 

* * * * * 

Anywho, its not really a reality show because things are already pre-fixed. Like certain races can't go out with certain races. If you know what I mean. But good experience overall, I don't know how they stand doing that from like 7am til night time... I would die of boredom. 

However, am grateful to my lecturer for creating the opportunity of having this rare experience!

*Episode will be out SOMETIME in January.....*
