Our very own Nielsen Day, aka D&D for some companies, was such a blast! I enjoyed every single bit of it! It is my very first time attending it, and I was really excited because I did not know what to expect initially.


This year's Nielsen Day was held at a function room in The Legends, Fort Canning Park. And since Fort Canning is rather "foresty", the theme to this year's party is SAFARI! Sounds fun, isn't it? And as part of a long-standing history, Nielsen newbies are supposed to put up an item on stage every Nielsen Day. This meant that I was not spared!


Ok, firstly, our table had to come up with something to suit the theme. After much discussion, we decided on getting safari-inspired balloons and named our table "SAFAR-OON"..


Let me introduce the peeps I sat with and their respective head gears to you.. (and we all wore black)


Top row (L to R):
Felicia (Giraffe), Connie (Tiger), Melvyn (Frog), Helen (Hippo), Wai Ling (Zebra)
Bottom row (L to R):
Yvonne (Mouse), Geraldine (Turtle), Natalia (Alligator), Fiona (Zebra)
missing one tough - Chi wei was MIA



How cute right?!?!









Helen and her cute pink hippo



I wanted to literally "stand out" by choosing the tallest Giraffe and pairing it with my 4-inch heels! Haa.. (:



Geraldine's balloon does look at squartle from some angles!

Ok, and so the event started at 10am. And one of the emcee, Rina, managed to get 3 big shots (Managing Director & President positions, no less) to go onstage to dance. At 10am in the morning, ok?! OMG!


They were all so sporting, I love Ang mohs man.. So cool about everything! (:


The guy on the extreme left onstage is our AP President and is from France. What he was about the do later was totally unimagineable!

He started to unbutton!



And flashed his chest to the audience, who already went mad then!
*My idol lor*

Anyways, the newbies did put up some shows. The Retail Measurement Services (RMS) colleagues did a skit, Consumer Research Services (CRS) - my department, did a rendition of "Don't forget the lyrics!" Last but not least, the regional team did the most creative thing by featuring dance moves together with songs to represent some countries. For instance, they did a bollywood dance in India, my fave Thai hit song in Thailand, and a Korean song called "Nobody" by Korean pop group Wonder girls to represent Korea. And guess what, they did "Mambo Jumbo" to represent Singapore. I was so happy, I tell ya! (but I think the beer that I had also kicked in lah!) *I MISS MAMBO NIGHTS!*

Here's the backstage crew for Don't Forget the Lyrics!

One last group photo before the event ended!

My team!















my final shot with Pragya, who's leaving for India soon.. Will miss you! (:



And here's the GIP dearies..

That's all folks! Looking forward to Nielsen Day 2010. Till then, here's my giraffe for you!

XOXO
