Huney'Z World: Hayley Woo

Hi Huneybees,

I am on the road most of the days, shuffling from events to events. I've taken rides in hubby's car, friend's cars and quite a bit of taxi rides. I may not be the driver, but riding as a passenger for so long, I have notice the increasing hazards on the road. There's more aggressive drivers, road bullies and you wouldn't believe the amount of traffic jams I see every day!

So, are you a good and safe driver? Why not pit your skills on the 'AXA Drive' App? This is not a competition to finish the lap first, but rather improve your skills, making the roads a safer place for everyone. With the app, you can monitor and improve your driving behaviours. Once you get into your car, you simply turn on the app in your mobile devices, leave it on the dashboard flat and let the accelerator sensor capture your driving behaviour.

A scored will be generate at the end of the journey, deriving from acceleration, braking and turning of the vehicle. Of course things like speeding, a sharp turn or a hard brake will give you a lower score, it's all about making the journey smoother and slower!

At the AXA Drive App launch, Mrs Doina Palici-Chehab (Chief Executive Officer of AXA Insurance Singapore) and Ms Kwek-Perroy Li Choo (Chief Corporate Responsibility Officer of AXA Singapore) shared more about the survey data collected from the over 450 road users on the AXA Road User Behaviour Survery 2014. It's amazing to know that alot of the drivers think that it is alright to drive through amber light!

Artistes and bloggers - Irene Ang, Hayley Woo, Xiaxue, Maimunah Bagharib, Chua Enlai, Allan Wu and Bobby Tonelli, pit their skills against each other, with the conventional boys vs girls team.

Stephanie Carrington was the host for the event.

Who do you think will win? Will the girls beat the guys?

After some squabbling, it was time to get the app ready and set off on the "race track". I got to ride in Hayley's and Maimunah's car. The ride was so smooth and fun with Hayley filming her very own video in the car!

After a round on the road, the winners were announced. OF COURSE the ladies won! Everyone were driving safely on the road and the big winner was Xiaxue with a perfect score, whilst, Enlai had the lowest score. Check out his expression!

So, be sure to have this app with you as you drive everyday! It made my hubby be more cautious on the road and I'm loving his new style! Drive safely and maybe you can even boast about your drive safe skills to your friends and have a little competition like what the artistes did!

The 'AXA Drive' App is available for free downloads in the Apple iTunes Store and Google Play Store.

Hi Huneybees,

I've always loved the idea of being able to fly, soar high above the clouds and fly together with the birds. Do you? Well, with iFly Singapore's state of the art wind tunnel, we can fulfill that dream!

And as iFly Singapore turns 3, they have launched a charity initiative that will see 5 local personalities - Randall Tan (Actor), Hayley Woo (Actress), May (Former Model and MTV VJ), Dr Jia Jia (YouTube Star) and Munah (YouTube Star from MunahHirzi) compete for $35,000 worth of cash and prizes for their selected beneficiaries on YouTube.

The online celebrity YouTube series - So You Think You Can Fly, is the first reality series regarding indoor skydiving in the world. It will follow 5 Singaporean celebrities and YouTube stars transition from novice indoor skydivers into proficient flyers, as they compete to win SG$35,000 worth of cash and prizes for the selected charities.

They will be going up against each other in a series of competitive rounds in the grand finale on the 24th June 2014 with the grand champion walking away with the cash prize of SG$10,000. In addition, all charities will secure $5,000 worth of flight time for the benefit of their members or caregivers of the non-profit organisations.

The personalities and their selected beneficiaries are:

Randall Tan (Singapore Cancer Society)
Hayley Woo (Club Rainbow)
May (Lupus Association Singapore)
Dr Jia Jia (Children Cancer Foundation, World Vision International and Save Our Street Dogs)
Munah (Happy People Helping People)

At the So You Think You Can Fly launch, iFly's very own youth ambassadors - Team Firefly (Kyra Poh and Choo Yi Xuan, aged 11& 12) and Team Awesome (iFly Singapore’s top instructors, Kristopher Reynold and Joshua Tay, aged 34 & 32), came together to give us an awesome performance of bodyflight, indoor skydiving.

Team Firefly made history as the first team from Singapore to receive the silver medal in the “Dynamic 2-way” category at the Bodyflight World Challenge 2014, held over 4th and 5th April 2014 in Bedford, United Kingdom. Both teams competed in both the “Dynamic 2-way” and “2 way Freefly – Open” categories which Team Firefly also finished a credible fifth place, while Team Awesome also managed a respectable eighth place in the “2-way Freefly – open” category.

And prior to the launch, Managing Director and Founder of iFly Singapore - Lawrence Koh, attempted to set a new Guinness World Record for Longest Indoor Freefall; the most time spent constantly flying in a wind tunnel. The previous record stood at 4 hours and 2 minutes. Mr Koh was with iFly Singapore’s Chief Instructor and Trainer, Mr Kristopher Reynolds, in the attempt. Both men re-set the record at 4 hours 22 minutes and 20 seconds. The record attempt was made in a bid to raise additional awareness and funds for the selected beneficiaries through the So You Think You Can Fly campaign. Lawrence Koh and Kristopher Reynolds successfully raised an additional $2,000 worth of cash from their Guinness World Record attempt, a kind donation made by Mr Tan Wang Cheow.

Another surprise, was also the appearance of Hayley Woo and Munah. Not only did they share about the training process and the competition, they also performed a little number for us, giving us a sneak peek as to what to expect in the YouTube series...

So, aren't you excited to catch the series? Be sure to catch the first episode to the world’s first indoor skydiving reality series, premiering on 29 May 2014! Watch it here: bit.ly/soyouthinkyoucanfly
