Best Job in the World? True or not?

What's possibly the best job in the world?
To be engaged in something you love, or simply just for the moolah (money)?

(Image credits to Google)

What if there's an opportunity for you to do something you LOVE and yet EARN $20,000 at the same time? 

"You have got to be kidding me", I hear you say. "Is this some kind of dirty job?"

OF. COURSE. NOT. LAH.
Carlsberg is currently giving you the chance to possibly hold the best job in the world and the payout is a whooping $20,000 for a mere 4 hours of work. ($5,000 per hour)

If you think it's too good to be true, then read on before deciding! 


Apparently, this is a campaign launched by Carlsberg and they are actually legitimately paying the successful applicant the amount of money that was promised! (Someone was selected as the lucky winner last year and he took home $10,000. That's even better than striking consolation prize in 4D!) 

SHIOK. 

And this year they have increased the amount to $20,000!

DOUBLE SHIOK.
Most importantly, it cost NOTHING to sign up for the campaign.

AND HERE'S THE CATCH:

Responsibilities:
- Be a Carlsberg ambassador
- Enjoy ice-cold Carlsberg during work
- Entertain your friends with probably the best beer in the world

Requirements:
- Zero experience (You don't have to be an avid drinker...)
- 100% Carlsberg Passion
- Able to Work for 4 hours
- Does not posess own transport (driver included!)

Job Requirements & Registration
Anyone who feels that they are the best candidate for the job can make an application at
This job is  only open to applicants aged 18 and above

Online registration (free, of course) opens on Monday November 21 and closes on Sunday December 4.

Selected finalists will be notified to attend a simple job interview on the afternoon of December 15
 


Of course no guarantees that you will be selected, but as long as you participate - You stand a possible chance! Never try, never know right??? The best things come unexpected. I currently do have a few friends who have participated in it as well!
It's only a day's work, so you don't have to worry about resigning from your existing job. LOL. Just think about all the honeymoon and holiday that you can go after winning the sum of money.


ALL THE BEST, GUYS!

[Invite @ BeerFest 2013] I DON'T USUALLY DRINK BEER. BUT WHEN I DO, IT'S TAIWAN BEER!

Guess where was I on 16th June 2013?
.
.

Well.. Probably you were there...


Yes, I was at BeerFest Asia 2013 - With thanks to the lovely fellows at Kaimay for inviting me over!


Our Complimentary 1-Day tickets handed to us by the lovely Ms Tachi from Kaimay. :)


Wrist tags:


And here we are, making our way towards the majestic-looking Taiwan Beer's booth!



We were invited to sit on the cosy sofa at the booth where we were revealed the most anticipated new flavors from Taiwan Beer:
(If you are a fellow Taiwan Beer fan, you'll definitely NOT want to miss this out. Guarantee plus chop!)


I spotted this Graffiti wall and thought it looked artistic!
(I found out from Ms Tachi that one of the staff at the booth actually drew them all by herself! Impressive huh!)

.
And... Here they are:


*drum rolls*

The latest 2 flavors - GRAPE FRUIT BEER and ORANGE FRUIT BEER!

*pours*


Are you excited yet??!!
Both Pei Wen and I were given the opportunity to have a taste of them - and I have to admit that we were COMPLETELY in a state of euphoria when we tasted the Grape flavor.
I still remembered the distinct taste when I had my first slurp and went excited over it.
I looked at Pei Wen and exclaimed "OMG, this tastes really good!"

Hahaha, and she reached over enthusiastically to take a slurp too.
Her expression was priceless.

No kidding, it became both of our instant favorite. Not to mention that the grape flavor blends in really well with the the slight alcohol taste.
(Don't worry if you are not a fan of alcoholic drinks. Taiwan Beer is unlike other beers.. And even non- alcoholic drinkers will tend to love it!)

As for the Orange flavor, it tastes really refreshing!
However, I would say that the taste of orange isn't that strong though.

If you are one who is more towards the taste of alcohol but YET not too much, the new Orange flavor will definitely be something that you will find satisfying.
Don't believe me? Keep your eyes peeled for their appearance in the leading supermarkets and convenience stores near you and give them a try yourself!


Overall, both are seriously a great addition to the Taiwan Beer series. I'll bet you will be as pleasantly surprised as I was.
And one thing about the those beers - They taste awesome when chilled! So keep them in your refrigerators for maximum pleasure.

Well.. Moving on to blog about my happenings at the event:

We were given a mini fan each, and it's soooo cute!
(I heard they were the only exhibitor that came up with this idea at BeerFest..And it's no doubt that they are very thoughtful as the weather has been very hot these days. (Actually... ...he word 'hot' is an underestimation!)


Flipping it around to the opposite side:
Awww..
Well, see that Facebook logo over there? 
Go LIKE it if you will! :)


And here, I proudly present you my FAVORITE air float (I don't actually know what it is called) but I have been falling in love with it since the day I spotted it at previous events. LOL:


The beer bottle float is very cute right! I really hope Taiwan Beer will be giving this out as part of their promotions with purchase. Haha, but I heard that they did give them out during the first few days of BeerFest  and the response was good!

Camwhoring time:

These are actually Styrofoam stands that were transformed into a temporary "table" to hold our drinks:


I loitered around the booth, trying to take as many photos as I could. 
Now, look at those bottles! Stop salivating, I know you want em'. Haha.



Pick one:


I don't know why but I think I look kinda greedy here - in an unglamorous way. LOL. But just for entertainment value, I'm gonna post it!


Both Pei Wen and I took a walk outside and I was still holding this beer float everywhere in my hand. HAHAHA. There were beer promoters from other brands that had wanted to approach me but they stopped when they saw me holding this.


My beautiful bff  - Thanks for coming along with me!


Trying to act like some superstar but turned out look more like an auntie:


That's Jolin Tsai, Taiwan Beer's official ambassador!
(But of course I am not talking about her physical self. It's just a photo banner of her. Hahaha)


YAY! I'm holding the new Grape flavor in my hands! 


And last but not least.. My favorite photo *trying to act demure*
:

Ah, it has always been lovely meeting the nice people from Kaimay again. 
Thank you for inviting me to your events! 
You know..

This line has been popping up in my mind after I came back from the event. LOL.

Thanks to the lovely peeps at Kaimay for the generous sponsor of Taiwan Beer! #ijustcantgetenoughofyou
