Red Bull Female Driver Search in Cat City

Hello! Anyone want to be the next Red Bull Rookie? :)

Joining Leona and Puteri to race in the Merdeka Millenium Endurance Race (MMER) in 2009.


The Red Bull Female Driver Search (RBFDS) was launched at Boulevard Mall, Kuching on Saturday, 25th October 2008 and we were there to keep everyone energized throughout the entire search.

Wait a minute... who are those two guys huh??? Hey, Brenda and Sharon...

Of course we must not be missed out, that's Kendy (middle), Vivian (left) and Michelle, yours truly :)

I also don't understand, somehow we just love to take photographs :P

We were at Boulevard Mall as early as 9am to help the Red Bull Marketing Team to setup for the road show that day. The search began with a press conference where the rookies and their trainer (Kenvin) were thrown with questions by the media! Wa! RTM was there too!

It was an eye opener for me as this is the first time I witnessed this type of activity. Working as an ME really give me so many opportunities of meeting people, seeing new things and this is definitely an invaluable experience for me! So no regrets in working as Red Bull Mobile Energizer!!! Kampate Red Bull!!!

The search went on from 12 noon to 8pm were the girls were required to register with us, go throught the indoor testing (colour blind & eye test) and outdoor testing as well. I did not know it was that complicated to be a racer :) I heard a total of 172 girls signed up for the program that day hoping to get an opportunity of a lifetime to fulfil their dreams to race. Good luck to all of you ladies!!!

Outdoor test drive in progress... don't hit the cones ladies!!! Hahaha!!!

We finished packing up around 830pm and I got home at around 9pm!!! It was a long day but I think my fellow ME colleagues and I had truly enjoyed this wonderful experience.

Till the next time... signing off from Kuching, Michelle

Greetings from Cat City!

Meow meow greetings from Cat City, capital of Sarawak "The Land of Hornbills"!

We are members of the Red Bull Mobile Energizer Team here. I am Vivian (left) and today my partner is Kendy (right). :P

Due to the difference timing in our course work, I am taking Marketing while Kendy in Hotel Management, we have not worked together for a while so we were both very excited about going out together today! Wuhu... psstt... we chatted all the way to our destination. :P

Today, we went to Kota Samarahan (which is about 30 minutes from the city) to sample people at driving. Our mission today is to educate consumers on Red Bull functionality for driving. I am not sure if you know but Red Bull really keeps our mind alert on the wheels especially if we are driving long distance or driving for a long period of time. Our targets today will be truck/trailer drivers and also those "uncles" who drive taxi, school bus, van "sewa" and etc.

Well, sampling was OK and everyone seems to be happy to see us :) glad to know that right!?! While waiting for the Red Bull to get chilled at 5pm, we took a short break and had ice cream :P

FYI I "chia" Kendy!!! After that we continued to sample the drivers.

Now this is the exciting part of the day, we were stopped by a POLICE CAR on the way back to office! OMG! The encik police asked: "You know apa salah moi? Kamu punya lampu di belakang hilang ah??" I was thinking... what type language is this?!? Like rojak, everything mixed together OMG OMG!!!

Just cannot believe this. Luckily... we managed sweet talk the encik and showed them our pity faces and then sampled him with Red Bull. Guess what? They let us go after that. PHew!! No "saman" Lucky lucky!!! There is just one bottle of RBB left so to bad for his partner, tidak cukup hahhaha!!! Maybe next time encik. (grin grin)

We informed our "lady boss" Miss Liew of our encounter upon arrival in office so she could fix the light at the back the folowing day. Just in case our colleagues get in trouble next time.

Phew... what a day but IT WAS FUN AND EXCITING!!!

Hope you have enjoyed reading this blog!
