SHANGHAI, SYDNEY, HONG KONG

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that frightens us most. We ask ourselves, 'Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, and famous?' Actually, who are you not to be? Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that people won't feel insecure around you. And when we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”

SHANGHAI

Wow.... it has been awhile since my last post, but do believe I have been thinking of all you guys here at AlivenotDead! It's just been one crazy whirlwind with projects, events and travel flying in and out from all directions!

Anyway, so many things have happenned since, with the usual parties, eating, drinking, parties, working, filming, parties, eating, and...well... you guessed it... parties!

I popped into Hong Kong last week actually but just for a quick 4 days as had a show there then needed to prepare for my show in October, so we went to the venue - Hong Kong Cultural Centre and did a full site inspection.

All is going well with ASKBENNY, my online Website teaching Mandarin! On YouTube, our videos that we have uploaded have now been played over 62,000 TIMES!

Anyway, we entered a BBQ RIBS competition at Naked Cow, A cool restaurant here in Shanghai... we won PEOPLE'S CHOICE for TEAM SPIRIT! We had the amazing BLAZING BUDDHA on our side (FRED KAN... also on the AskBenny.Cn Team!)... Check out the pics below :

SYDNEY

Tomorrow I fly to Sydney! It's a actually a suprise for my baby sister as it's her Graduation! She doesnt know yet and thinks I have forgotten her.... I will be arriving literally on the day and will go straight from the airport to the Ceremony! Should be fun!

It's also my best friend's STAG NIGHT (Last Night of being a Bachelor before getting married!) So I'll be able to catch that as well as I wont be able to go to his wedding!

HONG KONG
