Yesterday, thanks to the ever dashing
Mr. Henry Tan a.k.a babebaboon I was one of the lucky person who was invited to the media appreciation day by
Wazzup!!
A little intro about
Wazzup - basically it's a younger concept for a well known optic store "Focus Point" - the leader of optical stores in Malaysia.
The idea was to create a shop that totally caters to the youth's need for optics. Apart from featuring "younger" designs, the whole look and feel of the shop itself was young and fresh. You won't see uptight looking eye physicians or boring dressed shop assistants lurking around the shop. Instead of wearing suits or formal shirts, the workers will be wearing jeans and t-shirts. casual, but nevertheless, still very much professional.
 |
| Wazzup!! - menas they bring you the latest trend and styles in town! |
Let's have a sneak peak inside this very interesting shop...
 |
| reminds me of butterfly display... Looks a lot like it no? |
 |
| The latest in town - Paul Frank designs |
 |
| Even the chairs used are not the usual boring chairs |
Instead of the old-school concept of heavy casing and glasses to keep the glasses and shades, Wazzup have a more open concept - something like a boutique store concept. You could actually walk in, have a try of any glasses or shades on display without feeling guilty of causing trouble to the shop assistants. It's goodbye to the old concept where the shop assistants need to assist you in taking out the shades/glasses out of their cases for you. Now you won't feel obliged to buy shades you can't afford or don't want. Woots~ to that!
Feel free to take a look and try (and take pictures) of you with ANY shades or glasses from ANY brand that you would like. Then you can always walk away, buy or come again later on to buy yourself those glasses that caught your attention.

| see the guy with the wazzup t-shirt? that's one of the shop assistant |
 |
| try any glasses you fancy |
 |
| go ahead and fantasize you're a Casanova with hot chicks beside you |
 |
| or try on these bizzare looking shades like we did |
 |
| Personally I think Wazzup should take these two as their model/ ambassador. |
So if you guys wanna know more bout this shop, check out their facebook page;
Alright, that aside, let me tell you what really made my day.
#1 unexpectedly meeting up old acquaintances
Didn't think I'd bumped shoulders with the very lovely Carolyn from
Youth Asia/ Youthsays! or now known as
SAYS.my.
#2 I got to take pictures with leng zai(s) the b-boys, "Mustang" and the beatboxer, Koujee.

| Mustang Crew |
They put up a very good and entertaining show. Despite I may be biased (everyone knows I have a soft-spot for leng-zai(s) ) but I'm not surprised the Mustangs were the finalist for Astro Battleground. and the ultra cute Koujee was ranked top 4 in Malaysia BeatBox Challenge 2010. He're a little sneak peak from their performance yesterday. (sorry for the low quality camera video - and poor handling of it)
I went "kyaaa!" (at heart) when I saw the cute beatboxer :p
#4 All of us walked back home with RM50 Ang Pow (and some, more, bcoze they got lucky in lucky draw) courtesy from Focus Point.
Gong Xi Fa Cai - Indeed XD
Happy Thaipussam, and in case I miss you, Gong Xi Fa Cai to those who celebrate it.
Still very much a brat at heart,
