AKA Friday Round Ups

3. At AKA, we love our four-legged friends. We love them so much that someone once had not one, not two, but SEVEN hamsters. Obviously seven hamsters are difficult to name. SO DIFFICULT that our one-week-old friend gave up after hamster number three. Four hamster died without ever knowing their names.
7. There’s nothing we love more than learning about (read: being jealous of) what our colleagues on leave have been up to. One such AKA-er apparently woke up with a stiff neck during her staycation. The reason: “Pillow was too soft ah”. Is it time to pitch for Tempur or what? (Hint: this person was also featured in last week’s round-up)
8. “THE BEST I HAVE EVER SEEN” – True words spoken by a client on a deck, which felt like music to the working team’s ears. Clearly, they hit all the right notes with said client. Guess the brand.
9. One late night this week while we were all in bed, a lone warrior was wrestling a wayward washing machine. The machine took the win and left our sis in a spin. Guess who? (P.S. Electrolux friends, you might wanna help a gurl out).

1. This client, famed for batik preenz on their products, recently “awarded” the working team a 40k budget for a rather run-of-the-mill KOL campaign. If you can’t hear the team properly on Zoom calls, its probably because they are still picking up their jaws from the floor.
2. This person took time off this week to attend her sister’s convocation, but confessed that the most interesting part about the whole affair was the food. #priorities
4. If there’s something strange in your neighbourhood (read: Covid-19), who ya gonna call??? GERMbusters. That’s right guys, with the rising cases in pre-schools, a very responsible client has tasked this team of clean folk to build germ buster kits that involves some high-level detective work, we hear.
5. – This team had a very very very long conversation with a Chinese paper just yesterday on the evolution of Korean dramas. *Cue flashbacks of dramatic wrist grabs, slow-motion smooches, interfering mother-in-laws and gender-benders*. The moral of the story? Watching TV is the secret to success in PR.
6. You might already know that the Science Centre team was found starstruck by a seemingly unassuming hunkle who made an appearance at their media preview yesterday. Given the fairly wild reaction of the team, it was fitting that the event is titled UNTAME. One person in particular was smitten by the brush of this celebrity’s strong hands on their shoulder, but was too shy to spring for a photo.
