The 'Madeover' Marina Square As most of you know, Marina Square had recently undergone a multi-million dollar revamp and has transformed itself into a food and shopping hub. We check it out.
It's our BRAND NEW REVAMPED IMPROVED MADEOVER website! Sorry, got a bit carried away there. Erhem. As I was saying, HOOKED enters another phase of its cyberlife and the Chief Ed's not here! Which explains why the name of this issue is less a mouthful than the last... I mean "the last one before the new issue". And that was the name of our previous issue. Seriously...
Okay before I get fired. A brand new HOOKED also coincides with the beginning of a new academic year. Yesh, glorious hols are ending. So we at HOOKED would like to say hello to our new freshmen and we do hope you like what you find here.
And you do have a lot to find in this issue! We have a feature on Sylvester Sim's recent showcase at Dbl O. We have an interview with the legendary Everest Team. We have people gabbling on slimming ads. We have journalists going for makeovers. AND in keeping with ol' traditions, we STILL have CDs to GIVE AWAY!
Now please have fun exploring our new site while we go dream up something for the next issue. Which I promise will not be named "the one after the previous issue..."
HOOKED wants YOU!
