On the 14th of December, I got a chance to meet Tilu at The Bee, Publika for their Come Back Show. The show was a hit with the restaurant completely full, even I had to share a chair with my mum. (Yes, she’s a fan.) There were people from all walks of life, both old and young, all of them enjoying the jazzy pop funk music from this band that has finally come out of hiding for a year.


For those of you unfamiliar with Tilu, they are a band consisting of Malaysians and Indonesians who came together to cultivate their mutual love for music. With catchy tunes and fun chemistry on stage, you can’t help but want to know more about them. So here’s a peek into what’s up with the band, Tilu…

For those of you who are familiar with the whimsical tales Dr Seuss, imagine what if would be like to have the characters from his books prance around as if they were right off from their pages. That’s precisely what you’ll get from Enfiniti Vision Media’s ‘Seussical The Broadway Musical’.



Narrated by Dr Seuss’ most iconic character to date, the mischievous and cunning Cat in the Hat, ‘Seussical The Broadway Musical’ is definitely a must watch for everyone (do not deny your inner child, you know you want to!) and is a good introductory show to young/new-to- theatre audiences.


Personally, I’m rather proud to see a local production put together an ensemble fit to make the Disney productions a run for their hats.



Characters played by musically talented actors like Peter Ong and Safia Hanifah dressed in colourful costumes and creative props, which are uncanny to the quirky illustrations from Dr Suess’ books, are enough to make any adult feel like a kid again.

The show was cleverly choreographed and laced with catchy musical numbers. Kudos goes to all the actors, especially the children who brought in the most important element, fun!

I personally have the pleasure with working with the one and only Elaine Daly. Smart, confident, funny and motivated in the mornings with the daily talk show "Bella" on NTV7, her striking persona makes me want to work harder with her.

Which is why when she spends time with, or even talks about her now-husband Dr. Nick Boden, her face turns brighter and she turns calmer, more relaxed and it absolutely does look like she has had plenty of sleep.

“Moving in to our new home together, we need a place where we can indulge in each other’s companionship and build a strong bond of trust and support, and be able to share our problems and successes. It will be especially exciting as we will be celebrating our first Christmas and New Year’s together as husband and wife,” Elaine enthused.

Bedroom haven Dunlopillo gave both Elaine and Dr. Nick a chance to prepare a special message for each other, which, in turn, resulted as embroidered pillows as presents before the wedding.

So with her and her husband's busy lives in this modern world, a mattress is more than an object necessary for sleep – it is a place where we spend most of our lives. And it is even better when its shared with the one you love.

Elaine is also over the moon over what she has in store next for her life, “It is an exciting journey that I will be beginning soon as a wife – and perhaps soon, a mother,” said Elaine jovially.

We can't wait for baby Daly-Boden!

So what are your favourite moments to be kept and loved for the year to come? You can share them with Dunlopillo themselves on their Facebook page here!
