Project Alpha Season 2 – Blogger 6, 7 & BONUS: AZWAN ALI, KLUBBKIDD & adidas OLE KO CHALLENGE

with 2 comments

Project Alpha Season 2’s last episode (online) aired yesterday with Azwan Ali & Klubbkidd as their last two featured bloggers.

Each of them told me they have a secret crush over Ninie Ahmad.

Azwan says I look very much like his former yet biggest celebrity crush, Ziana Zain so he loves me no matter what.

Well, it’s not the first time I was told so :(


And Klubbkidd (aka Joe Lee) said since he’ll never be married to Xiaxue’s husband a girl, I can be his wife for a day during the Project Alpha Bloggers’ Launch.

Plus, he did Partner Yoga in public with me too just to know what it feels like having a girl on top of him :P


For avid followers who are already having Project Alpha Season 2 withdrawal symptom, I just found out today that there is a bonus episode mainly featuring adidas OLE KO Challenge I bragged on how confident I was on winning.

To find out who really won, yoga-ta just watch this for I’m not telling ;) (since they DIDN’T tell me Michael ‘The Director’ Lim was gonna play and played damn well too!)

Project Alpha Season 2: NINIE AHMAD (Intro)

with 2 comments

When the first season of Project Alpha was in the making, I came to know about it from reading the featured bloggers’ blogs and I said to myself  “Heh, I am sooooo not one of Malaysia’s top bloggers anymore.”

My infamous blog before this, The Yoga Instructor Diaries gained quite a number of daily visitors back then especially during the yoga fatwa fiasco and I cashed in lotsa money from high traffic & advertorials from Nuffnang.

Not this much money though.

So when Nuffnang’s David Wong broke the news “Ninie, how would you like to be one of the bloggers for Project Alpha Season 2?”, I went, “Eh, do I even have anyone reading my new blog at all?”

Sweet David replied, “Of course, we shortlist only our highest rated bloggers for Project Alpha, you know!”

ME? In the same league with Kenny Sia and Cheesie? And Shaolin Tiger? And KY Speaks? And Red Mummy? And XIAXUE?

Yoga-ta be kidding me!

.   .   .   .   .   .

So if you asked me last year, does Ninie Ahmad prefer to be known as The Blogger Who Teaches Yoga or The Yoga Instructor That Blogs,

I am positive I would have answered the latter (with a smirk).

I’m still, I’m still Ninie from the blog.. Used to have a little now I have a lot (visitors, thank you ALL OF YOU!)”

But if you ask me again now – after the whole Project Alpha experience, I have to say I really don’t mind am honoured being known as a (known?) blogger.

I might be teaching yoga to 3 or 30 students in one yoga class, but I am pleased to know that – I might be teaching yoga to 300 if not 3000 (on really good days :P ) through this cyberspace.

My endless gratitude to sponsors of Project Alpha

Main Sponsor : Adidas Action 3
Official Broadband Sponsor : P1

for the experience of a lifetime and to Nuffnang especially for seeing it in me.

Stay tuned for my episodes of Project Alpha (which might have Henry Golding in them!) in my next entries.

I will win adidas OLE K.O. (Bloggers’) Challenge this Friday.

with 6 comments

I can’t say how confident flattered I am when so many Nuffnang bloggers believe that I am going to win adidas OLE KO Challenge this Friday!

The adidas Pure Game Ole K.O. Challenge is organised by StarAsia Malaysia (sole distributor for adidas Active Body Care range) and is set to fan the football fever by offering fantastic prizes to winners of the one-of-a-kind challenge that will combine endurance and skills.

Contestants will play one-on-one street football in a spherical steel cage 20 ft in diameter and 18 ft high, and compete to score as many points as possible within a set time frame by kicking the ball through their opponent’s legs – a move also known as “ole”.

Highlight of the event would be Malaysian top bloggers from Project Alpha Season 1 & Season 2 competing against each other.

.   .   .   .   .   .

Of course pretty (scary looking) bloggers like Kenny Sia, Shaolin Tiger and Huai Bin get nominated as well.

Little did many of you (that did not vote for me ;) ) know that -

I actually DO play futsal.

And I used to be my team’s captain (or am I still?) when we used to play on a weekly basis if not – competitively.

Those who put your money on Kenny, scared already or not?

.   .   .   .   .   .

That is until (almost) all of my former teammates that you can see in these photos below, either busy preparing themselves to get married or happily gotten married and have babies!

Yes, yes it is definitely easier to put the blame on them – they found their happy ending already.

.   .   .   .   .   .

So for single girls alike (and boys who want to see some yoga instructor with flashy adidas futsal boots running around and dribbling about putting giants like Shaolin Tiger to shame),

do put on your TEAM NINIE jersey (or any baby blue top will do!) and support me here:

Date: Friday, 21 May 2010

Time: 7.30pm

Location: Centre Court, Mid Valley Megamall

and if I do win (help me repeat the affirmation for this post!), I might just throw a yoga class at the end of the tournament! It would be exciting to see all the ‘blogger boys’ get pretzeled in the middle of Megamall, wouldn’t it?

Special thanks to adidas Action3 range for keeping me smelling fresh even after futsal training!

.   .   .   .   .   .

Love and support for girls in boots & can kick balls this Friday!
