You must have heard by now that the Singapore Radio Awards [Website | Facebook] will be held in November.

We were asked to do a video recording for the award polling last month.

Well, I am vain and lazy at the same time. I won’t allow anyone to take pictures or videos if I’m not groomed for the camera. I did bring along my stuff, but I was feeling particularly sluggish that morning. That is why I’m the only person who didn’t appear in the voting vids- the finger isn’t mine, in case you were wondering.

I had a gleeful smirk when the videos were published. “People who are none the wiser will think that I’m rather creative!” They have no idea that they are complimenting someone with Sloth as a middle name.

And then, I discovered an error.

I’m feeling a little self conscious, but here goes: I’d won the Award four times, not just three times, okay? Hahahaha.

This is an atrocious start to the campaign. Let’s start all over again.

Once again, I’m nominated. Well, it’s actually kind of like a default thing, since I’m on air from Mondays to Fridays.

You guys made me Y.E.S. 93.3FM’s Most Popular DJ the last four times *palm on heart*, giving my résumé (and ego) an incredible boost. If you have enjoyed the morning show, and have been looking forward to counting down to Friday with me, or if I’d done something right somewhere, then I guess you won’t hesitate to send a SMS.

Or Two. Or Ten. Or Twenty. *fist on chest*

If you wanna gimme a five, please SMS SRA 47 Your Name & NRIC to 72346. (Please note the space between SRA and 47.)

Fine print:
Each SMS costs $0.30.
Only for Singapore SIM cards, not open to pre-paid card users.
Voting ends 30 Oct.
SMSes constitute 60% of the overall score- something new this year.
You will receive a wallpaper with my face on it. Please delete that- I can’t imagine anyone using that- and not let it deter you from sending multiple SMSes.

I stand a chance to get a trophy, and you might win a weekend stay at Capella Singapore, where you can frolic in a garden villa for two nights and enjoy a Sunday brunch at The Knolls.

I know that a couple of DJs have promised to do something at the end of the day. Divian from 987fm, for instance, will get a full body wax on camera if he wins. You know I don’t do stunts like that. In fact, I’m not even going to be around after the Radio Awards to show my appreciation, because I’ll be doing two weeks of In Camp Training and then spending Christmas in Beijing.

Seriously, why would anyone vote for a DJ who is always absent? Ouch.

I realise I’m not good at telling people WHY you should vote for me. This is in reality a HOW to vote entry. I’ll leave you to look for a reason that’s convincing enough for yourself.

Thank you.
