Today was great. I went to pick up my girl at around 10.00am and we went for breakfast. We stopped by at Bukit Jambul area for Pan Mee. It was pack with many people maybe because it was a public holiday. After breakfast I drop my girlfriend for work and I head back home straight away to get ready for my performance later in the afternoon at Mercedes Showroom.
By around 12.00pm, I was ready and head up to my cousin's house to pick him up so that he could help me video all the fun and exciting moments at the showroom. I kept thinking to myself and I was nervous cos I did know how things will turn out. I arrived at the Mercedes Showroom at around 1.10pm and within minutes I started doing my thing.
I was introduced to a few elder guys who was sitting around by my cousin sister. They started asking many silly questions like can I make a girl's bra disappear or make blank paper appear to money. I've decided that today I'll go mostly with cards. So I replied to them saying that I can't make a girl's bra disappear but I can make cards disappear.
I took out a deck of cards and started with the briddle trick and everyone was supprise how I made the card disappear from my hands and appear in the other guy's hand and they even teast and laughted at him and I played along with them as well. It was a good start to boost my confidence.
Shortly after that, a group of potential customers walked in and I notice an elder lady was sitting down so I walked up to her and within seconds everyone was crowding around me. Seriously I was slightly nervous but I know the show must go on. I wanted something that is easy to follow so I did the ACR. The elder lady was smart and I almost lost her card at the beginning. I asked "Aunty can you snap your fingers and she replied YES!" So she snap her fingers and amazingly her card appear on top of the deck. She could not believe it and I show it to her again. It was a simple ending for me but for the elder lady it was Magic! She started clapping her hands and I received a round of applause.
Then I met with a Japanese lady in the showroom and she was one of the audience which saw me doing the ACR. So I told her that I wanted to show her something extraordanary and I took our 2 jokers. I asked her which card she wanted and she selected one and I place the other onto her palm. I asked her to concentrate and think of the card and suddenly the card levitate up into my hand and her reaction was great.
Then later I went back to another group who was sitting down and I took out my chain. Although it is a simple effect but it blew all the audience away when they saw the ring instantly link to the chain. They even tried doing it and still could not figure it out.
After the chain effect one of the guys asked me to show a card magic and I know it's time to do the 2CM and with an added wist. I asked told the guy that it is a guessing game and I would bet with him 50 dollars and if he couldn't get it right. At the end all he could say was "You are amazing" in Hockien Language. Since he already took out the 50, I asked him if I would to write my name over the note will anyone appect it and he replied NO but I told him not to worry I'll not write anything. However, I took the note and did the pen through note effect and everyone was shock for a moment but when I pull the pen out, he saw the note was restored and he was puzzled for a moment.
I met my old classmate there and I show him some tricks but he was camera shy. Anyway, if I'm not mistaken he is the assistant manager of DOME restaurant at Island Plaza. I had my lunch and it was yummy.
This is Jerry my old classmate
When I saw this strawberry chocolate, it reminds me of the time when I was at Cameron Highlands with my girlfriend.
Later I saw my cousin sister sitting at the entrance with her subordinate and I did my final effect which is predicting a card. I asked her to think of a card and write it down without me looking it. I asked her to think of the card, the number, the shape and the colour. As I moved my hands above it, I saperated a card from the rest and when I revealed it she was amazed.

The day ended well, I manage to meet up with my other cousin brother which came back from Australia and by 3.30pm I left the showroom and headed up to my aunt's house.
