Dun miss this, this is totally a MUST WATCH video of the year!

Thank you so much to Pueh Tian for editing the videos and create this fantastic ones.

So, if you do not know yet, Digi Internet Pimp My Day Challenge was an on ground challenge held at 1Utama Shopping centre where each team require to work in a team of four to complete the challenge. We are given with a piece of paper which direct us to the challenge spot where we have 8 tasks to be completed and most importantly is get our passport stamped for each challenges we’ve been through. The are no sequence of tasks that we need to do, we just need to execute all task in the given time.

Time management plays a huge role here as the emcee had earlier hinted everyone that we are unlikely to execute all tasks. We were lucky enough that our team members are quite familiar with this place(but there was a task which we kinda wandered around like a lost puppy on the street trying to find it’s way back home), so we planned on which task to be executed first before heading to our first challenge spot.

Each team was given a DiGi Broadband modem with 3G Turbo support(Malaysia’s only Turbo 3G network) where we get consistent speeds with Likely Average Speeds of 700kbps download / 200kbps upload, we need to get connected to the Internet to share our adventure with you. =D We totally rely on this modem to get connected to the Internet to update videos and photos which is part of our task too.

Here’s us Pimpky connected with DiGi Internet on our laptop.

Before we start any challenge, see how energetic, happy, confident, excited we were to face off the challenges ahead!

Task 1 – DiGi INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… It’s a HIT! Batting Cage

First of, we went for some balls hitting session. I would say it’s some kinda balls that we Malaysian rarely hit, but thanks to DiGi who put on this as a challenge for us to try. Oppps…dun get me wrong here, it’s actually batting arena where each of the player needs to hit off as many balls as we can out of 15 speedy balls shooted out by the automated machine at It’s a Hit! Battling Cages located at Upper Roof of New Wing 1 Utama.

I gotta tell you, it’s not as easy you thought. You really gotta get yourself focus and aim to hit the speedy ball.

Come’on, let’s hit some balls baby!

Tallboyz managed to hit 11/15 balls. Oh well, he’s really good at hitting balls. Guys, be careful k?

We tried to aim for the DiGi logo coz if we hit it, it’s a Hit Run where the player will get prizes for it! We cheered for each other and gave full support for each incoming ball. We’re not telling you if we hit it or not. *It’s a secret, coz you guys didn’t come and give us support* =p

This is our first time playing at batting cage, and all we gotta say it’s really FUN and exciting! I would say it’s a great activity as stress reliever when you hit off the balls. A piece of advise if you’re going to try, stand more to the back within the white box and position yourself. Once you get the hang of it, just swing it!

Task 2 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… DiGi Music

Next off, we rushed to DiGi station located at Lower Ground (LG) of new wing for our next challenge which is to explore music download from DiGi Music portal. Let’s Rock on baby!

We are required to create a playlist with our team name(of coz Pimpky! ) and add any one songs by Lady Gaga and Akon each into our just created playlist.  We were kinda confused here coz we’re just too keen and excited but we managed to accomplish the challenge. If you’re interested, you can subscribe to DiGi Music at only RM5/month for unlimited music downloads, song and playlist sharing. Woohoo~ UNLIMITED wey!

Task 3 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Swatch

Our next challenge is at Swatch located at LG Oval of New Wing where we were given two Swatch watches to shoot a commecial for at least 30 seconds featuring DiGi and Swatch . We were like some artistes doing a commercial shoot, a commercial which we should be proud of  coz we are the director, producer, cameraman, script writer, and artistes.

Can’t wait to watch our commercial right? Lights, Camera, Action!

You saw the Swatch watches they had? Nice right? What are you waiting for? Go get yourself a nice Swatch watch now! But wait a second, get it after you finish reading our blogpost first k?

Task 4 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Mardigras

Are you interested to watch 4 yellow rare monkeys doing some sexy “sexy” pole dance at Mardigras?

Here you go… dun say we dun share great stuff with you, k? But urhm…. some of you might find it disturbing, so watch at your own risk, k? Dun say you’re not warned.

It’s suppose to be group pole dance with the theme – Athlete. So, do you think we can dance? This is embarrassing to say, we kinda look like yellow monkeys swinging around the tree branches. >.< But did you see how Saimatkong promoting Digi Internet while doing the pole dance? That’s what we call creative!

Task 5 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Rainforest – Riddle

In this challenge, we headed to Rainforest located at LG New Wing and were required to watch a YouTube video streamed using DiGi Internet connection on a Nokia N97 . The picture clue and picture code is actually showed at the end of the streaming video.

“There are more ppl with mobile phones today than ever before, so make sense your phone is Internet’s new home.

You live on the net,

and the net lives on your phone.”

The internet is now mobile and unlimited.

We totally agree with that, but anyway, back to our challenge, we were almost squeezing all the juices out of our brains trying to figure out the answer for this challenge at Rainforest. The question itself is brain teasing enough, it’s all numbers!!!!  This is totally like cracking the Da Vincci code, no kidding!

Did you even manage to get what is the question? Haha… we already know the answers.

We’re in the mood to be generous, so here’s our hint for you, With DIGI Internet, Broadband/3G/WiFi, Internet Done Right. The answer is some where in the sentence, got it? Tell me your answers(no Google searching for it yeah) and I’ll let you know if it’s correct.

Task 6 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Rainforest – Bulls Eye

Next we were like some Orang Asli blowing the pipe with poison darts to hunt for food at the rain forest, but this is a revolution version of it. Basically, we need to blow some Satay stick like darts to a board at Rainforest located at LG New Wing. No worries, DiGi did not put our lives at risk, there wasn’t any poison or innocent living sacrificed in this activity.

It’s quite a tough “blow job”. If you wanna try this, remember to breathe in and blow it out hard and fast in just one breath.

Tallboyz and Pueh Tian is just too tall so they gotta bend on his knees to blow the pipe.

We were totally stunned when we saw Saimatkong can even aim and blow with his eyes closed, and he scored high! He almost hit 700(the highest score) too! Dun play play! That’s what we call pro.

Task 7 – DIGI INTERNET PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Celebrity Fitness

The earlier activities have left us tired and exhausted by running to and fro from lower ground of old wing to upper roof of new wing, almost ran in the whole 1Utama, it’s basically like run, run, run and run non-stop, time is precious and every minute counts. But still, there are two more task to complete and this the most exhausting task of all.

Each of us had to run 800 meters on the treadmill at Celebrity Fitness located at second floor new wing and the average speed will be recorded. We have been giving excuses not to exercise all these while but thanks to DiGi Internet for putting this into the challenge (we were kinda forced to run, coz we wanna complete all the task!), we must have really shed of those extra KGs, felt so light as if we could fly or run as fast as Bolt the dog. But really, this challenge have showed us how bad our stamina was and we should include exercise into our new year’s resolution.

Look how exhausted we were after the 800m run. Dun be fooled by Saimatkong still half energetic face here, you’ve not seen behind the scenes yet. LOL. We were so dehydrated, we could almost drink up a gallon of water each.

Task 8 – DIGI PIMP MY DAY CHALLENGE WITH… Quicksilver

Woohoo~~~~ We finally reached our final task where we modeled for Quicksilver(located at first floor new wing). There are some clothes prepared in the basket, all we need to do is just dress up, strike a pose and give the best shot. Photo is judged based on creativity.

Quicksilver clothes are comfortable, and easily to be mix and match, see how trendy we look here.

Dun you think Tallboyz looks very macho here while Saimatkong is just so sexy in a woman’s clothes?  Would our photos be used on Quicksilver advertisement soon huh?

UPDATES : We are officially supermodels now as our team have won the RM300 of Quick Silver/Roxy vouchers each for this challenge (Did I tell you that each challenge has a winner for it?).

After completing our last task, we headed back to Mardigras and managed to clock in quite early! In fact, we were the first few teams which clocks in.

After the clocked in, we are required to write a blogpost on whatever we have been through and upload all the videos taken for the challenge and submit it within an hour. Our teamwork spirit is strong and nothing could beat that! We delegated all the job to complete the blogpost. Tallboyz was doing the photos editing/touch up, Saimatkong upload the videos, Emeryn was preparing the blogpost and Pueh Tian was taking the photos for us and video editing(Kudos to Pueh Tian for the great video which is the sort summary of the whole challenge and performances we had). Well done Pimpky! That’s what we called Pimpky all the way! *Please give a round of applause to us!*

After we have all completed the blogpost, Digi surprised us that the submission dateline has been extended to next day midnight. *Speechless* We were earlier so tensed on the time for photos/videos editing, and time for the uploading. So, right now it leaves us with a mixed feeling(anxious, nervous, excited, curious) wondering which team would emerge as the grand prize winner?

Oh well, I guess we’ll need to wait for the announcement. *Let’s pray together that Pimpky will be in the top 3* (we’re kneeling on our knees praying  really, really hard).

But it is no doubt that it’s a fun-filled day with all the challenges we had, besides we have learned the below values for the following challenges we’ve been through.

1. Focus, aim – Batting at It’s a Hit! Batting Cages
2. Observe, act fast – Searching and adding songs to playlist from DiGi Music at DiGi Store
