PANAAAASSSSSSS!!!

Yeahhhhhh...It was just in the recent post where i highlighted the effectiveness of Twitter on cutting down the time spent updating yourself unlike other community portals like Facebook and even Blogs!...but hey, i guess nothing beats the joy, anticipation and also the eagerness of expressing your thoughts the blogger way huh? Much more to mumble about, pictures to show, links to share...yeah, I guess blogging does have that sincerity values that people can relate to (hehehe...as for my case, it's just you and me buddy :P)...So here i am again, back to blogging, and eager to spill out all the things that i've been through to bring me where i am at this moment (with some censorship and filterations of course :D)...Owh yeah, i just bought myself some tickets for Earth Hour's 'Walk Of Hope' this Saturday at CapSquare, YYYEEEEEHHHAAAAAAA...i really can't wait!!!...i can't stop imagining how our Menara KL will be pitched black for an hour in front of our very eyes...i'm sure it'll be a sight to behold...:D
So...what had i been up to lately...let's see...last week was a pretty slow week for me, with the usual job and my sister's wedding preparations of course, but it ends with BANG!...a good one that is...:D...for some reason, i have this mysterious uneasiness and hatred with my officemates for the past week...please don't ask me why, i'm just as clueless too...they're not evil or flesh eating hideous mutants or anything, maybe my anticipation for work last week was boiled down to ZERO...yup, no motivation whatsoever...i totally got really lazy to get out of bed, let alone dragging myself all the way to the office...i thought it'll be over in a day or two, but it turned as a WHOLE WEEK TORTURE...i acted like a total jerk to them all, including my DGM...but they remained silent thanks to my ability to meet up with deadlines, which resulting that they don't say much about my moodswing...i don't know, maybe it's that time of the year again where you kinda had enough with your surroundings, you want to take a breather at a different place BUT YOU JUST CAN'T...so i guess my tantrums kinda linked heavily to that...you can choose whether to cruise along with it, or put a STOP to it...i chose to stop it, i don't see any believable sense if i keep going on like that right?...so this morning i decided to force my smile to shine through my 'black coffee' face, and it does helped to clear the air for everybody, they started to talk to me again, included me in their daily gossipings and lots of other office related activitied and issues...owh well, positivity sure come in handy when you realy need it :)...

That one's aside...middle of last week me and my cousins went to Cineleisure Damansara to catch the press preview/cocktail hi-tea of Yasmin Ahmad's latest offering, 'TALENTIME"...the title sure is lighter and does sets the tone in everyone's expectations unlike any of Ms. Yasmin's previous movies, where the one word title used are left hanging and creates some sort of eagerness to the viewers of wanting to know what it has to say...So there i was with my cousins flocking around the waiting area while waiting for the 'green light' to go into the cinema...One of my cousins contributed his vocals in 2 songs for the movie, so he's there for a short showcase on one of the songs...most people are delighted with the Pete Teo piece and my cousin shows off his skill on entertaining everybody there...Flocks of guests and creative household names attended the event, which caused a major space constraint on the waiting area, resulting in one of the invited press people got BLACKED OUT all in a sudden...the organisers managed to control the situation, but the fact that somebody has passed-out shows that the venue is not as suitable as they thought it was for a cocktail hi-tea...but anyway, the situation was covered, and finally we all managed to take our seats in the cinema to watch the movie...hehehehehe, the verdict?...well, i must say I KINDA LIKED IT...eventhough it's pretty obvious that Ms. Yasmin pays very little attention on the casting process this time around, but the storyline managed to touch me from so many ways...I really don't wanna spill so much details about it here, considering that the official nationwide release will be on this coming Thursday, but really, if you have the opportunity to watch Talentime, please use it to your advantage, and the floor is open for you to criticise or simply laying down your two cents worth...but all i have to say is...Good Job Ms. Yasmin!!!...;)

And Yessss...i did mentioned earlier that i ended last week with a bang right?...wanna know why?...coz last weekend i had a rather intimate but joyful dinner with our former Prime Minister, Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad, his wife Tun Dr. Siti Hasmah, his son Mazhar together a with few friends of mine AT HIS PRIVATE RESIDENT...yeahhh, imagine having dinner with him on his own dining table in his own home...and what a home it was...complete with elevators...well, for th record, Mazhar was a friend of ours and it's not strange for him to call us up for dinner at his place...but having dinner with Tok Det never failed to amuse me, eventhough it has been done before...so there we were having a good laugh accompanied with good food and music, it's a priviledge to see our former Prime Minister and his wife in a VERY RELAXED manner...and quite a funny guy by nature!...and its really CUTE to see Tok Det and his wife 'arguing' about their medicines right down to making fun of themselves...HAHAHAHAHAHA...i bet Barack Obama haven't seen that one in person...:D...but anyway, we had a GREAT time with him before they finally excused themselves for their well-deserved rest...as soon as they called it a night, we all went straight to crash in Mazhar's room and there is where we finally managed to loosen up...that night is filled with laughter, cursings, bitching, and the best part, imitating our favourite characters from our favourite Disney movies...and all HELL broke loose, eventhough its already late at night!!!...but what the heck, we went nuts portraying our own rendition of Aladdin lah, Little Mermaid lah, Pocahontas lah, Cinderella lah, Snow White lah, Mary Poppins lah...HAHAHAHAHAHA...it sure pur a smile face again everything i thought about it...but it sure a total BLAST!!!...and it all happens under Tun Dr. Mahathir Mohamad's roof!!!...how weird was that???!!!...;P
So yeah, that was it, a good ending for my otherwise a boring week...can't wait for this weekend actually, where me and my sisters and my nephews and nieces are planning to splash around at KL's premier water park, Sunway Lagoon!!!...GOOOSSSSSHHHH i can barely remember when was the last time i was there...but i'm pretty sure it's more than 10 YEARS AGO!!!...and i'm pretty sure too that Sunway Lagoon sure has upgrade itself since then...can;t wait to get back there ans surprise myself...olritey then, time to get busy (in order for the time to swift away :P)...til then, C YA!!!

A Friend named TWITTER!!!

Yeah...i realised it has been 10 days since my last post...well, not only i'm pretty much occupied with chores, both personal and family (event) ones, but right now i'm pretty much hooked to this new, up and coming community portal (a..a..a...before any of us assumed it's another 'Facebook' or 'MySpace') that enables you to update yourself no matter where you are, what you do 24/7...Twitter provides you with 1 basic profile that includes basic infos about yourself...you can put your picture if you want to, send messages and even block anybody who's not pleasing or appetising enough for you...and you know what, basically THAT WAS IT!...it sooooooo basic coz Twitter is not about letting go your expression or alter ego type of portal, it's just a medium of letting you and your followers (yup, friends are named 'followers' in Twitter) what are you up to...for me, this is a concised alternative to blogging, doesn't require any softwares or applications but yet with all the updates that you put up, people can straight away get the idea of what you're up to and they might even tell where you are as well...a one stop Human GPS if i must say so...and Twitter can even be installed in your Blackberry (named TwitterBerry), so you can ENDLESSLY and CONSTANTLY make yourself visible to everyone about what happening to you, your day and even the people around you...wooaahhhhhh this thing is gonna be BIG SOON ENOUGH!!!...i'm getting the hang of it as we speak...and within 2 days i've managed to have 4 followers interested to know what am i up to...hahahahahahaha...owh well, i'm twitting out now...c ya soon!

Cracking My Inner WOOHOOO!!!!!

Yup!!!...I got nothing much to say about last week and my last weekend but the ROCK ON sign!!!...bukannyer selalu dapat enjoy my days the way i had spent it on some of the days last week...and like they say, you'll never get to experience things or days the way you want it to be...well, for my case, i think i did...and a CRAZY one at that...let's see, where should i begin...olrite...let's start with JASON MRAZ's concert...yup, i was right, eventhough i can only hum along on some of his songs (which happens to be his mainstream singles), but by the end of the day kan, it was AWESOME!...Jason Mraz indeed one of those rare gems when it comes to artistic mofo out there!!!...we all felt the air of HONESTY in his performance...dah lah i went with my closest cousins and bumped pulak ngan some of my MMU juniors, we all danced our way bagai nak rak lah kan...and the way he engage his feelings with the audience is something that our local acts should look up to...TAK BERPURA-PURA...he really stripped himself down (do digest that by reading between the lines yerr ;P)...no fancy outfits, no out of this world gimmicks, it is more like an intimate jamming session but in a bigger scale, but then again simplicity is applied right from the main ensemble all the way to the lightings and such...although there is some yawning numbers (thanx to my lack of research of his songs) and also the dissapointment for featuring a not-so-right duet partner for 'Lucky' (the chosen is a local Chinese singer named Penny Tai, rumoured to be making waves in Taiwan now...whatever!!!)...not only shes not well-known, but she even had the nerve to showed up late for her slot resulting in the fans to sang the first verse with Mr. Mraz...not that it's a bad thing for the fans really (c'mon, singing with Mr. Mraz in his famous duet number...how rare can that be?)...but we all rather continue sang our lungs out with him rather than that lousy 'artist'...yeah Mr. Mraz, although you introduced her with all the cheesy compliments like 'beautiful and talented', that doesn't portray enough through our eyes :(...but after all that, the concert sure is rocking everyone's socks off...walaupon ade jugaklah some cheesy acts like the 'I LOVE KL' top, but ppl had a really great time with the show...and hopefully he'll stay true with hsi words by promising 'This is our first time in Malaysia, but it'll definitely not be our LAST'...see you soon perhaps?...hopefully...;P

 Hmmmm...ape lagi yang berlaku last week ekk...owh yeaaahhh...our date with LUSCIOUS at The Apartment, KLCC...HAHAHAHAHAHA...this can be considered as the highlight of my weekend...walaupon tempat tu adelah sebuah restaraunt je sebenarnyer, but we giggled and howling ourselves like nobody's business...it all took place on the second floor (privacy lah sket...kot...:P)...LUSCIOUS took the platform around 9 pm (too small to call it a stage), and from there on we just sang along to some of the tunes and one by one our friends showed up with the brightest smiles, just what we need for a sweet yet perfect hangout session...even kawan2 yang susah nak jumpa pon tetiba showed up malam tu...lagi lah byk sesi berpeluk2 dan mengilai dijalankan...and not to mention cam whoring moments...mmg GILA dan BEST BANGET!!!...and the setting of the place does create the right mood for everyone...boleh baring2 and all...everybody's seems to be in a more relaxed manner...eventhough the sound system is rather BAD (restaraunt nyer sound system...how high can you expect pon kan) but knowing that almost everyone was there, semua technical flaws ditolak tepi and we all just let loose all night long...dah lah ade diantara kitorang malam tu baru je selamat ditunangkan, and ade jugak yang datang jauh dari Labuan malam tu sama2 naik hantu ngan kitorang...MMG GILERRRRR!!!...seriously nak ceritakan semuanya dalam ni mmg berjela lah jadinya...but overall, it's a lovely night...a night where everyone boiled ourseleves down and bonded as friends, no matter what your professional life or race is...sume orang equal and appreciate one another...we're all glad being there seriously...hopefully it'll be a good starting point for everyone to hang out more often now that everyone knows that life is about togetherness and sharing...

And last night, dah lama rasenyer tak buat impromptu plan...so me and a friend of mine semalam tetiba tergerak hati nak tgk movie pulak all of a sudden...hahahahahaha...tanpa berfikir panjang kitorang redah terus ke MBO Ampang tu and get the tickets...we went to watch 'WATCHMEN'...one comment...DON'T WATCH!!!!...hahahahahaha...WATCHMEN lovers akan suka giler lah kot...but as for me and my friend's case...we don't even know what WATCHMEN is...let alone buying the comics or knowing the characters and what not, the movie failed to create the fan out of us...dah lah lama giler movie tu...mmg tak worth it...visual fest mmg BEST GILER i must sat...very believable...tp tu je lah nilai esthatic nyerrr...but the fact that me and my friend end our week with a movie night mmg gilerlah...mmg serious lama giler kitorang dah x buat...

Hopefully this week ade plan lah lagi hendaknya...i'll be keeping myself busy for the preparation of my sister's wedding that is exactly one month from now (ARRGGGHHHHH...PANICKING!!!!), but this morning my another friend called and planned for another get together somewhere in PJ for some NASI KUKUS KELANTAN party!!!...yeahhhh...our friend tu nak bungkus Nasi Kukus for all of us specially prepared in Kelantan!!!...hahahahaha...that sounds like a weekend plan for me already...hahahahahaha...dahlah aku cuti Friday and Saturday ni (WOOHOO!!!)...and most probably me and my sis akan drive back to Rembau and Seremban, Negeri Sembilan to hand out our wedding invitation utuk sedara-mara belah sana pulak...fuuuhhhhhh...another packed weekend for me lah ni...but i hope it'll be a good one...hehehehehe...til then, C YA!!! ;P

p/s: last minute highlight...i heard ade orang PANAS dan BERASAP dengan hang out session kitorang alkisahnyer...siap cuba nak selidik bagai...HAHAHAHHAHAHA...tak nak comment lebih lah...;P

Nak Enjoy Dengan Friends dan Mr. Mraz!!!

(Sambil menarik dan melepaskan nafas 'lantaklah') HAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHH...yup, malam semalam aku dah tgk muka2 para calon pelajar AKADEMI FANTASIA musim ke-7...and yup, as expected, muka aku takde pon kat situ...bermakna sekali lagi aku gagal melayakkan diri...sama macam tahun2 lepas jugaklah...Ntahlah, ada yang cakap bukan rezeki aku kali ni, tapi...hmmmm...dahlah, penatlah nak elaborate...agaknya adalah kriteria diorang yang mmg takde dalam diri aku agaknya...whatever it is, AF will resume its seventh season starting this week...apalah pulak dramanya kali ni agaknyer ekk...sama2 KORANG nntkan yer...aku dah tawar hati...:P

JOM KITA ENJOY!!!

Hehehehehehe...aku x naklah frust2 dah...yang penting, seperti gambar di atas, aku IN A VERY HAPPY MOOD SEKARANG NI!!!!...MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA...not only because my boss will not be around until next week, tp juga malam ni aku dan beberapa rakyat Malaysia yang lain nak let loose and unwind with the soulful tunes of JASON MRAZ!!!...yup, tonight's the night...WOOHOO!!! :D...tapi sebenarnyerkan, secara jujurnya, aku tak tau sangat lagu2 Mr. Mraz kita ni...selain dari the overplayed 'I'm Yours' and 'Lucky' (speaking about 'Lucky', it is a song that i bet people are anxious to see who will be his duet partner for tonight) ada jugaklah aku tau 'Remedy', 'Geek In The Pink', 'You n I Both'...and...tu je lah kot...and semua taken from different albums...tapi my motivation is when i watched his documentary on his European tour...not that it's a huge scale tour, but it's the complete opposite...he is like selamba giler in an AWESOME way...eventhough i watched from his DVD, but from there aku dah boleh engaged dengan performance dia...so that's why i decided to check him out now that he's in town...hopefully samalah hendaknyer...so Mr. Mraz...You're Ours Tonight!!! :D

Aku nak nampak busuk dan tak mandi macam dialah malam ni...YEAHHHHH!!! :P

What else ekk planned for me this week, owh yessss, the girl group that i'm closely linked to, LUSCIOUS is out there for a showcase again...this time, the venue will be in APARTMENT, KLCC...so this Saturday 7th, me and my buddies will be there for support and to loosen up to cherish one another's presence and have a good time...hopefully this time no more impromptu surprises lah ekk, coz their last showcase in Bangkok Jazz, tetiba je i ditarik naik stage with LUSCIOUS and kene buat vocal sparring plak dgn diorang...i know it's an attempt to get connected with the audience, tp why me? :P...owh well, nak buat camner, tau dah ade depan tu dgn diorang, so nyanyi je lah kan :P...but seriously the people there that night mmg sporting giler...naik hantu jugaklah aku dibuatnya...tapi aku kene beringatlah kan, tu bukan show aku, so sebelum semua take advantage, i put a stop to it terus...fuhhh lega...:P...so this weekend, aku nk orang lain pulak merasa naik stage...MUAHAHAHAHAHA!!! :P

Well, i'm all set for a good weekend...til then...C YA!!!...

Nak 'KHABARKAN' pada semua...LUSCIOUS SHOWCASE, APARTMENT KLCC, SATURDAY 7th MARCH 2009 at 8pm!...:)

I'll NEVER be GOOD ENOUGH for them...Redha je lah...

(Speaking to myself) After so many years and so many seasons of me containing my eagerness to be part of it, looks like i really have to face the naked fact for real this time around...Terima je lah...yang ko sememangnya WILL NEVER BE GOOD ENOUGH to be part of them...You know you've been trying hard...you know you've given your all...you know you've been true to yourself...you know you got the talent that you're anxiously wanted to share with the world...but hey...i guess that will never be enough and maybe that's not what they're looking for...the thing will start early next month, so kalau aku ni betol2 terpilih, then i should have heard something from them by now...I guess my sister's right...mungkin industry tu bukan untuk aku...dah tersurat agaknya...umur pon bukannya semakin lama semakin muda...yer, mungkin orang cakap you should never give up in chasing what you really wanna do in life...but hey, everything has its limitations kan...even patience has its own boiling point...so i guess THIS IS IT...nampaknya aku kene redha dgn ketentuan dan rezeki aku sekarang ni...mungkin ade hikmah di sebalik kegagalan demi kegagalan yang dah aku lalui all these years...it was never easy to swallow something as bitter as fact, destiny, and the truth...but if you don't swallow it now, you won't know how it'll taste like right...so...dgn kiraan satu, dua, tiga dan ucapan Bismillahirahmanirahim...i'm letting go off my interest from AKADEMI FANTASIA!!!...pooofffff!!!!...:)

Hahhhhh…another week is just around the corner in passing us by…tau2 next week dah last week of February 2009…yup, I guess the time decided to become much more swifter by the minute…scary jugaklah sebenarnyer…memikirkan yang diri ini sudah mencecah usia 27 tahun this year ( lagi 3 tahun dah masok 3 series, if u know what I mean L ), tp ntahlah, in terms of achievement in life, aku ni kira takde pape pon lagi…kosong…walaupon aku mmg amat bersyukur dgn apa yang aku ada sekarang (pekerjaan tetap, tempat tinggal, kenderaan sendiri dan keluarga yang amat memahami) tapi still…in order nak dptkan kesenagnan di hari tua nanti Insyaallah, aku kene start mengumpul harta mulai sekarang…caner nak kumpul tu?...itulah persoalannya sekarang…walaupon ade yang diantara mereka yang rapat ngan aku kata ‘ala rileks je, ko muda lagi’, aku boleh menerima kenyataan tu (bets jugak sbb nk feeling muda kan), tp still, I can’t take that for granted…sooner or later aku dah kene start building my life in a much more serious manner for my future…

            But wait!!!...asal aku tetiba membebel pasal kehidupan aku ni?...hahahahaha…well, agaknya itulah dikatakan tentang luahan initipati perasaan kan…ia keluar secara spontan tanpa sebarang paksaan…aku sebenarnyer nak membebel pasal benda lain, end up kuar ketulusan hati lah pulak…hehehehe…semalam was quite a shocker really, bukannya ape, tak pasal2 dalam pukul 6pm lebih camtuh I got a call from a famous local designer, member aku jugaklah, dier tanya aku katne, sbb dier alkisahnyer ade kat area Ampang and decided to drop by my place…aku tanya kenapa…alkisahnyer dier nak tumpang nonton SPA Q 2 kat my place sbb semalam is an episode that features him as one of the designers for the main character….waaaaaaaaaa…dah slowly venturing ke bidang lakonan lah pulak…so I suruh dia drive to my sister’s place where I’m eventually heading there pon, and we all including my sisters duduklah tgk SPA Q 2 FOR THE FIRST TIME waiting for my friend nyer scene tu nak kuar…kahakahakah…aiyoooooo…cantik betol muka dier kalau dalam TV alkisahnyer…rambut semua jatuh at the right places, and not to mention the facial expressions…walaupon kuar dalam 4 minit lebih je, tapi impact dier cukup kuat…and rupenyer that’s not the only scene, scene lain pon ade juga, cuma kene tunggu next episode pulaklah that will be aired next week…hahahahaha…anyway, well done…can’t wait for next week’s cameo pulak…:P…but it was FUN!...habis je SPA Q 2 tu, my friend terus headed tu Istana Budaya, dpt tiket tgk PGL musim ke-3 alkisahnyer…AAARRGGHHHH MAKAN HATI!!!!...NAK IKUUUTTTTT!!!!...ahaks! :P

SPA Q 2, Isnin hingga Khamis, 6.30 petang, di TV3 (chehh mcm iklanlah pulak :P)

Hahahahaha…tu semalam nyer cerita lah…Well, aku sebenarnyer nak luahkan yang today is another Friday, which means weekends is just another day away…walaupon aku ni bekerja half day on Saturdays, tp still ia tetap di panggil weekends kan…as for this week, hmmmmm, boleh tahan jugaklah planningnya…first of all, besok (21^st February 2009) around 3.45pm, aku, my two sisters, a cousin and a family friend akan ke TGV KLCC nk gi menonton filem ‘CHANGELING’…ala, filem lakonan Angelina Jolie tu, we all heard it’s a darn good movie…and critics has been rather friendly and awed in excitement about this movie…aku malas sketlah nak explain synopsis movie ni kan…in short, dier pasal emak nak carik anak yang hilang…tapi seriously that’s not the point here…mungkin ade yang pelik kenapa tgk movie around 3.45pm on a Saturday?...well, takde lah pelik sgt pon sebenarnyer, tiket dah berjaya pon aku beli untuk 5 orang terus…tapi yang TERAMATLAH PELIKNYA ialah time session movie ni kat almost every cinema…I don’t know why tapi since the 19^th sampai 25^th February nanti, CHANGELING hanya available ONLY IN ONE SESSION EVERYDAY AT EVERY LEADING CINEMAS…yup, I hope I’ve made it rather clear on that one…mmg pelik…as for TGV KLCC…yeah…cuma ada kol 3.45pm SAHAJA!!! (panggung kecik pulak tu)...as for GSC Pavillion…cuma ada kol 12.00pm SAHAJA!!!...kat MBO Cinepelxes LANGSUNG TAKDE…cuma kat Cathay Cineleisure je yang ade lebih, tu pon 2 sessions je, 4.30pm and 9.05pm!!!...and that INCLUDES WEEKENDS sekali okay…perrrggghhhh…I really don’t get what the fuss is all about…movie2 lain okay je lah pulak, session cam biasa in which pagi ada, tgh hari ada, petang ada, malam ada sampai tgh malam pon ada…that is how things has been going on all this years kan…but not for Changeling…ntahlah…peraturan baru government ke ape nk kurangkan tayangan filem luar in order untuk memberi laluan on local movies?...itu cuma assumption aku je…tp takpelah, yang penting dpt tgk Changeling besok Insyaallah…yeaaayyyyyyy!!!

Woohoo!!!...lama dah nk tgk movie ni...hopefully it's a good one :)

Apa lagi yer planning this weekend…owh yessssssssssssss…production of our anxiously awaited AJ’s wedding video presentation will kick off this Sunday!!! (AJ adalah nama manja kakak sulung aku)…hahahaha…back to my shooting days lah nampaknya ni…me and my 3^rd elder sister had our pre-pro meeting last Wednesday with our 2 cousins and we’ve managed to get all things structured out together with the right song to use as the main theme for the video presentation…masing2 berjaya melontarkan pendapat dan pandangan yang relevan dan amatlah bernas sehingga berjayalah kami semua visualisekan video tu and from there we kinda know what we want already…we have few places to shoot ranging from my 2^nd sister’s in-laws house in Keramat AU2 all the way to our premier KL Birdpark…Birdpark okay…romantic hawau!!!...basically we’re going to these places just to set the right mood for the video, where kitorang cuba nak hidupkan balik the ‘first date’, ‘proposal’, ‘merisik’ and ‘nikah’ moments as close as we can possibly achieve…yerlah kan, the video Insyaallah will be shown time reception kat dewan nanti, so at least guests boleh paham a glimpse about how their beautiful relationship blossomed in front of everybody’s eyes…and the twist for this video is that kitorang akan mencuba sedaya upaya untuk tidak memakai muka kedua-dua pengantin seberapa mungkin, sbb reenactment scenes tu kalau boleh lagi senang kalau x nampak muka…hahahahaha…cakap mungkin senang, but Insyaallah time nak shoot nanti semuanya berjalan lancarlah hendaknya…so this Sunday will be shooting galore for us...once the shooting’s done, then barulah kitorang akan burn the entire pictures and pass it to our cousin where his side pulak akan apply the magic that will shape the entire video presentation…haihhhh nervous lah pulak, yerlah kan, nk buat wdding video untuk kakak sendiri, and not to mention the people who’ll be watching it nnt…it has to be romantically entertaining…yup, that’s the challenge…hopefully we’ll pull it off Insyallah…

KL Premier Bird Park...pernah pergi time lawatan sekolah rendah dulu kot...cantiklah jugak :P

What else ekk coming for us this weekend?...owh yerrr…ade my cousin seorang akan turun KL, ke Dataran Merdeka to be exact…dier ke sana sbb dier telah diamanahkan menjadi pakar tatarias (make-up artist) untuk video terbaru kumpulan yang sedang meningkat popular, 6ixth Sense…dier ada ajak turun set sekali dgn dia…well, dgn shooting aku pulak on the same day jugak, kita tgk dulu caner lah yerr…kalau sempat nnt jgn risau, aku akan hegahkan sekali crew aku turun menemani her set nnt Insyaallah…anyways…dah lama rasenyer takde plan kuar2 mcm ni, so I’ll enjoy to the fullest Insyaallah…til then, HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND AND C YA!!!!...;)

TIDDDDDDDDDAAAAAAAAAKKKKKKKKK!!!

OH NO!!!...OH NO NO NO NO NO!!!!...NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!...macam mana ni???...apa yang patut aku buat sekarang???...punyerlah selama ni aku ingatkan yang aku berjaya meluahkan perasaan aku dan segala isi hati aku dalam diam...dengan kebodohan aku sendiri, ada orang telah berjaya menghidu pergerakan aku...pergerakan apakah itu? pergerakan aku ke Audition AF7...and bukan itu saje, nampaknya orang itu juga sekarang dah tau yang aku sudah ada laman blog aku sendiri, yang selama ni memang aku x pernah bagi tau sesiapa pon...habislahhhh aku...macam mana dia boleh dapat tau? (fyi, tak payahlah aku bagi tau siapa orang tu ekk? Nak menghormati privacy dia sket lah kan, papparazzi kan byk skrg ni ;P)  Rupanya tanpa ku sedari aku telah view blog aku sendiri guna desktop dia...and of course lah kan, setip browser mesti akan simpan cookies setiap website yang kita surf tu, dan blog ini tiada exceptionnya...Aku pulak tak teringat langsung pasal bende tu waktu tgh surf tu...so sesuailah dgn muka aku kan?...tapi takpe, aku percaya yang dia ni jenis yang tak kecoh2 kat orang (harap2 lah yer)...berbekalkan peribahasa "jangan biarkan pisang berbuah dua kali"...maka dengan ini nampaknya demi privacy aku, aku takkan lagi check blog aku sendiri melainkan di desktop ofis aku dan desktop aku sendiri kat rumah...tempat2 lain sumer aku dah x berani dah...i've learned my lesson for sure...but anyway, kepada si dia, kalaulah cik terbaca lagi blog saya ni, harap2 diam2 kan je lah yerrr, jgn bagi tau sesiapa walaupon orang itu adalah rakan sekerja ke, boss sendiri ke, ataupon dier adalah driver kepada boss cik sendiri...sekian, wasalam...;P

Mamak MDCT Style...yeahhhh...;D

Woooaahhhh...it has been quite a while since i lepak with my family and relatives and had a blast with almost everyone...semalam kitorang semua pergi wedding Nani (majlis yang di handle belah pengantin lelaki pulak) di Wisma Sejarah (opposite IJN and squeezed between Pusrawi and Perpustakaan Negara)...it was a short and sweet reception, considering that our side is where most of the family budget has been poured in...so semalam basically is just jemputan datang, pengantin masuk, persembahan kompang and tarian by some high school boys, makan dan makan beradab, upacara memotong pulut kuning and THAT'S IT...memang simple and by 9.30pm Alhamdulillah selamat semuanya...considering the fact that the night is still very young, me and the rest of the family decided to end the night chilling with one another in NZ Jalan Ampang (for starters, rupanya there are two Mamak joint with the name of NZ nowadays, and the one in Jalan Ampang ni mmg baru first time aku pergi semalam)...quite a flashy setting for a Mamak i must say...I mean, it's a bit irregular for me to hang out at a Mamak that is  stylishly urbanised in furnishing, clean and deodorised washrooms, promotional offers projected on numerous flat screens 'scattered' everywhere, modernised chandeliers deeming the whole mood of the place and to top it all off, it's face to face with our well-known twin tower landmark, the KLCC...so jakun lah kami yang tak pernah sampai ni...apparently tempat tu takde lah baru sgt, my nephews alkisahnyer dah lepak situ byk kali...hahahahaha, that sure dates me coz it shows that i couldn't care less about hot spots that much nowadays :P...anyway, eventhough we only ordered drinks je, but still the atmosphere of piling everybody together is definitely the sweetest part about last night...we had a good laugh, we bitch about almost everybody (including some of the 'diva'esque staff yang berlagak tak bertempat dgn kitorang semalam), and not to mention my elder cousins macam boleh berlawak dgn kitorang semalam, which is a sight yang kitorang dah lama tak enjoy for the last couple of years!!!...even my dad showed up and unwind with everybody...talking about being at ease with the company of one another and spending some quality time that definitely strengthen the bond amongst ourselves as one BIG family...we end it all off with an impromptu family portrait in front of NZ with KLCC as our background...now that is a FIRST for us definitely, mana pernah kitorang amik gambar depan KLCC, nampak sgt all this while we took for granted je KLCC tu, little that we know that bila di tgk betol2, KLCC tu amatlah cantik sebenarnyer, especially waktu malam...lepas snap gambar, masing2 bersalam peluk cium bagai, and headed back with our separate destinations to call it a night...haaaaaaahhhh...I did mentioned yang weddings is in the air for my family kan?...well..kira gathering lah jugak tu kan...as for my sweet family, until the next event...;D 

Hehehehehehe…I went for it anyway…:D

Hahahahahaha…yup2…kalau nak ditanya diri sendiri, memang mula2 tu ade hesitation yg amat tinggi…yerlah kan, saudara-mara sendiri kata tak payah pergi, tak payah amik tau pon…adik-beradik sendiri pon (with exception of my 3^rd elder sister) siap cakap ‘buat malu je’, and not to mention stepmom pernah cakap ‘kalau dah byk kali cuba and masih tak dapat lagi, meaning people don’t care pon sebenarnyer’…member2 pon ape diorang kisah sgt pasal minat aku, sdgkan diorang lah patutnya last resort aku untuk mengadu ape haram jadah sume kan?...hehehehe…that’s not happening with my circle of friends…to me especially…sdgkan kalau member2 aku yang lain, jgn kata support, tp emotional support pon will come in very handy when it is needed…aku pon tak tau apa dan di mana silapnya aku dan kawan2 aku ni all these years…ntahlah, malas nk pikir pon sebenarnyer…sbb hari Sabtu lepas, dengan hatiku yang amat kering, dan blessings daripada kakak atas aku dan member baik dia, and my future brother-in-law (yup, he got to know with a very valid reason) aku telah pergi ke SESI UJIBAKAT AKADEMI FANTASIA MUSIM KE-7 di Kompleks Sukan Negara, Bukit Jalil!!!!...yup, some people might say yang aku ni macam tak serik2…yerlah, sbb dari season 2 lagi aku dah try bende ni tau…biarlah aku huraikan sikit yer…season 2 dulu aku try dapat sampai stage 3 aje (personality test), season 3 aku gi lepas semua stage and dah sampai tahap buat KEZUTAN kat rumah lagi tau…MUAHAHAHAHAHA, I was so close just to be crushed down knowing yang aku cuma pelajar back-up je rupenyer…season 4 aku cuba pon lepas semua stage jugak, tapi diam tanpa sebarang kejutan akhirnya…season 5 aku gi ngan cousin aku, we both lepas semua stage, Alhamdulillah…tapi rezeki lebih memihak pada my cousin tu, he made it to the final cut, and I’m very happy and proud of him from that moment on until who he is today, U GO AND KNOCK THEM ALL DEAD BOY!!! (pesanan aku setiap kali aku berkesempatan jumpa dier before any show)…season 6 pon aku cuba juga (tanpa pengetahuan SESIAPA pon) tapi nasib mcm time season 2, sampai stage 3 je, which is a shocker for me lah kan sbb for past seasons aku lepas semua stage, tapi season ni sampai stage 3 je…wooaahhhhhh, at that time, I was like that’s it lah…nampaknya memang yerlah kot kata orang selama ni…aku mungkin dah x patut try benda ni agaknya…young bloods is what matters in today’s entertainment industry I suppose…aku memang crushed giler…

            Tapi kan entah kenapa, tetiba somewhere last month aku dpt tau AF is back for the 7^th season…and they are opening their audition sessions…seriously, aku memang dah tawar hati, not only because aku rasa mcm dah takde harapan, tapi seriously aku (and most Malaysians aku rasa) dah mcm masak sgt dgn corak program AF ni…balik2 bende sama je sebenarnyer, tenaga pengajar pon sll gembar gembur kata orang barulah apelah, tp 90% akan orang sama jugak (and aku x paham the fuss on siapa pengetua and host tu sebenarnyer)…and not to mention the talents chosen, yang betol2 boleh nyanyi adalah dalam 2-3, yang lain harapkan boleh menari atau laser ke ape ke, yang selebihnya setakat cantik or hensem je tapi suara alamak malas nak elaborate…yup, saban tahun AF balik2 mcm tu…penat dah rasenyer…mmg penat…and sah2 pihak pengurusan budak2 AF ni, MAESTRO tu pon aku rasa sebenarnyer bukannya kesah sgt pon kat budak2 tu, especially bila programme tu habis nnt…ade diorang amik tau welfare budak2 tu? Perancangan strategi betul2 efektif and fair untuk semua pelajar ke ape?...balik2 u know who jugaklah yang di jaja sampai barang2 rumah and persiapan kahwin dier pon di sponsor dari hujung sana ke hujung sini…so mmg yer I think it’s safe for me to say mmg orang dah penat dan muak dgn AF sbb it’s too predictable…TETAPI, di sebalik hatiku ini, AF7 tetiba ade mcm lain sikit gayanyer…as a person with formal and qualified background in promotion and advertising, sedikit sebanyak bila aku tgk diorang nyer TVCs, print ads and promotional collaterals, diorang somehow ade menyembunyikan sesuatu…dalam erti kata lain, diorang mcm tak nak lepaskan byk bende sgt too soon…and this time diorang tak melobi tagline diorang sgt…mcm past seasons tagline yang saban tahun berubah tu lah diorang lobikan awal2 Subuh lagi…can’t remember past years tagline, tapi AF5 dulu nyer tagline is ‘GEGARAN KIAN TERASA’ and AF6 kan dulu balik2 ‘BEBASKAN SUPERSTAR DALAM DIRI ANDA!’ yang end up siapa yang superstar pon aku tak perasan…sang Juara lah kot…opppsss terlebih sudah!…hahahah…MEMANG TERLEBIH!!! :P

So dengan pendekatan yang agak mencurigakan inilah yang membuatkan aku nk check it out this year nyer audition…yup guys, aku pergi dgn niat nk check it out je sebenarnyer…and…ntah kenapa ntah, my soon-to-be brother-in-law (Insyaallah) punyer anak buah tetiba tergerak hati nk try ujibakat juga alkisahnyer…hahahahaha…as what I did with my cousin before, aku pon decided nak temankan dia gi audition…adelah jugak member bawak berborak time menunggu nnt tu kan…so, 7 February 2009 pukul 8 pagi (I dgn demamnya waktu tu) kitorang meet up kat McD Petronas Ampang tu for breakfast and from there we headed straight to Bukit Jalil…and seriously aku terperanjat giler, SBB ORANG RAMAI NAK MAMPOS!!!...all this while berderet jugak orang, tp seriously aku terperanjat AF7 nyer turn out on that day is like madness…I don’t know, semua orang curious mcm aku jugak ke or somehow secara kebetulan mmg ramai orang nk ujibakat…whatever it is mmg ramai…and from there mmg aku budget ptg or mlm lah aku akan gerak dari situ (tu pon kalau lepas semua stage lah, kalau tak then it can be earlier)…so seperti biasa borang aku dah d/l from website dia and gambar 4R dua keping siap dgn Photostat IC the day before aku dah uruskan…tp nk beratur submit tu je dah berderet, takpe, tabahkan hati dan banyakkan sabar…tunjuk bende tu pulak, dier bagi another form (for the judges to fill in later) and berbaris lagi nk dptkan nombor pulak…lepas sejam berbaris (yup, SEJAM)…barulah dpt nombor dan sekali lagi berbaris semula ikut nombor nak masok pulak…lepas hampir sejam juga menunggu, barulah dpt masok, ingatkan bolehlah dah audition, rupenyer tunggu lagi kat dalam tu sbb judges break for half and hour…yer kawan2, audition mmg camni, tahap kesabaran mmg kene optimum and not to mention orang ramai giler…lepas half an hour, barulah my group of 20 people (dier dah asingkan waktu panggil nombor) dipanggil and here comes STAGE 1, where kita kene nyanyi lagu wajib tanpa microphone and tanpa muzik depan staff random ASTRO…the reason diorang amik staff ASTRO randomly sbb kalau diorang nip on kata suara x sedap, apa pulak kata professional judges nnt kan? Alhamdulillah, aku managed to breeze through that round dgn nyanyi satu lagi wajip je…hmmmm…tu baru STAGE 1 tu, camner pulak stage pasni ekk…pastu I got to know my future bro-in-law nyer nephew tu x lepas stage 1 L…sian tu, tunggu lama giler pastu stage 1 dah x dpt…kot yer pon bagilah nyanyi sampai 1^st chorus ke ape kan…ni tak, dgr citer dier nyanyi 2 rangkap je dah soh keluar…cam celaka!...takpelah, kalau ada next year, aku x kesah nk temankan dier lagi kalau dier nak…J

Habis stage 1, here comes STAGE 2…stage ni kene nyanyi pakai microphone, still without muzik but depan 2 professional judges, depan camera in a room loaded with ASTRO’s personnels…This stage mmg ko kene nyanyi depan contestants yang lain and dpt x dpt mmg satu bilik akan nampak…so sebelum aku adalah dalam 20 orang tunggu turn lagi and dalam ramai2 tu, 2 orang je lepas sebelom turn aku…I can say it’s quite strict jugaklah…sbb ade jugak yang sedap2 sebenarnyer, tp alkisahnyer this year kalau your voice effect2 Siti ke, Faizal Tahir ke, Adam ke, terussssss tak dapat…they really want originality…cuak jugaklah aku dibuatnyer…manalah tau kot2 time aku nyanyi nnt suara aku mcm Kak Mimi ke ape kan (chewahhhh!)…tapi ALHAMDULILLAH, dgn nyanyian You Raise Me Up dan Aurora aku tu, aku berjaya dapat KAD HIJAU…meaning aku pass that stage and proceed to the next one…FUH LEGAAAAA!!!!!....after stage 2, masok pulak STAGE 3…dalam stage ni kita kene nyanyi lagi tapi with muzik pulak, test on our tone whether kita ni tone deaf ke ape, personality test and kebolehan menari…I dalam byk2 bende time menari ni yang payah sket actually…aku tau size aku camner, yerlah with all the bulges kan, sure nampak tak kene gayanyerlah…tapi takpe, redahkan jua…tapi sebelom masok tu aku seriously menunggu dalam 2 jam beb…sampai aku kene mintak permission keluar jap amik angin…giler babi penat, lapar, pressure ditambah pula dgn demam lagi, I think you all know how suck that one felt right?...the reason why lama sgt sbb stage 3 ni as what I was told, lagi lama ko dalam tu, lagi cerah harapn ko nk ke next stage…so I guess orang yang lama giler dalam tu must be really good…kita yang menunggu kat luar ni got no choice but wait je lah kan…while waiting, adelah some noble souls kat situ (orang industry actually) bagi tips kata ‘just have fun, go nuts and be yourself dalam tu, takde bende nak di nervouskan’…ada jugak yang kata ‘it’s actually easier than stage 2’…yeah, ‘easy for you to say’ sentak hatiku…and somehow terbayang balik last season where aku sangkut kat stage 3 lah…but hey, what he said is true sebenarnyer…just take whatever happens dalam tu and have fun with it…after 2 hours, giliran aku pulak…sama scenario mcm stage 2, ramai orang…tapi this time professional judges ade 3 orang…before aku start, dier cakap, ‘introduce yourself, age, dari mana, nombor, and lagu apa nak nyanyi, pastu entertain kitorang semua sebab kitorang akan senyap je’…hahaha, so much for nyanyi with muzik konon, end up nyanyi lagu wajip tanpa muzik jugak, but this time aku nyanyi lagi Akan Tiba for my second song…pastu dier terus check on my tone…lepas semua flawlessly eventually :P…pastu semua orang diam…diorang nk tgk apa aku boleh bagi diorang in order to ‘entertain’ diorang…to be honestlah kan, aku blur sebenarnyer, tapi instead of blur and do nothing, aku jadikan aku nyer blurness tu sebagai sketsa…and somehow they laughed at it…good sign ke ape, ntahlah, tapi from there they find some corners for Q&A sekali…aku jawaplah segala apa yang ditanya dengan penuh yakin…one thing about me is that I love communication…so sesi soal jawap nih mmg takde masalah, sampai makan tape hawauu!!!...nampaknya aku dan Kak Ogy dah sama taraf ni ;P…tp yerlah kan, nk jadi penghibur, takkan lah setakat pandai bercakap je kan…sekali dier nk tgk aku menari lah…AIYOOOOOO…nak tak nak terpaksalah buatkan…lagu ape yang dijadikan sandaran?...I LIKE TO MOVE IT MOVE IT!!!!...yesssssssssss…itulah lagunya…dgn ketebalan muka yang ade, maka terkinja2 lah aku di depan semua orang dalam bilik tu…malu giler dowhhhhh…sambil menari ternampak pulak diri aku dalam TV kat sebelah bilik tu…aiiiissshhhhhh lagilah aku dah tak tentu arah…tapi walaubagaimanapon, aku teruskan menari sampailah lagu tu dihentikan…semput dibuatnya sampai tanpa segan silu aku terduduk depan2 tercungap2 sampai one of the judges kene bagi air minum kat aku…punyerlah lembik kan aku…so after all that commotion, they came up with a summary about me…diorang kata aku ni mmg pandai betol berkata2 (kata diorang lah) sbb semua jawapan aku diorang boleh terima…tapi aku kene ‘loosen up’ sket sbb ada kalanya diorang kata diorang boleh nampak yang aku ni masih lagi cover2 at certain areas where else they know yang aku ni boleh buat lebih dari apa yang aku tunjukkan kat diorang…and I still have a LOT to learn katanya…tapi, dalam memberi komen tu, aku terperanjat yang diorang lepaskan aku with KAD HIJAU!!!...yup, maksudnyer aku lepas stage 3 tu!!!!...wwwooooaaahhhhh…well, now I know it’s not easy untuk stage 3 kali ni…tapi teruja nyer pasal, lebar je lah senyuman aku depan semua orang dalam bilik tu sambil tercungap2 mengucapkan ‘Thank You, Thank You’ kat semua orang…so aku turun stage terus salam semua orang including personnel ASTRO semua2 tu and keluar dari bilik tu…

Time aku keluar je, semua orang yang menunggu tu terus tepuk tangan and startlah tanya macam2 kat aku…aku pon ceritalah panjang lebar pasal apa yang aku buat dan sebagainyalah kan…time tgh rancak berbual dgn semua orang tu, ada staff ASTRO panggil aku dan bawak aku ke STAGE 4...yup…the final stage…tapi stage ni tak payah kene nyanyi ke nari ke ape ke takde…cuma kene duduk and isi borang je…tapi borang tu adelah dalam 13 muka surat…and soalan2 dier dari basic right down to personal and all the way up to fantasy…penat beb memikirkan jawapan setiap satu…isi borang tu je dah sejam…sambil2 mengisi tu dtglah one staff ASTRO ni dok sebelah aku, dier pon alkisahnyer buat interview sekali kat aku dan rupe-rupenyer dier ni adelah mamat yang serahkan folder AF kat aku waktu buat KEZUTAN dulu…so kiranya dier ni kenal jugaklah aku ni sape and siap tanya bapak sehat ke tak and segala-galanya lah…habis buat interview dgn dier tu, aku terus habiskan mengisi borang tu (sampai diorang bagi pizza sepotong untuk aku makan sambil mengisi :D)…habis je isi borang, aku submit kat diorang and they wished me all the best and just hang on for another kejutan untuk aku kalau dpt masok competition ni…so there you go, cerita aku satu hari suntuk di Bukit Jalil menghadiri sesi ujibakat AKADEMI FANTASIA musim ke 7…until today, still kakak aku ngan member and my future bro-in-law and nephew dia je yang tau aku gi audition…everyone else aku still keep them in the dark…until the right time…tgklah the right time dalam erti kata lain either dapat or tunggu je lah programme tu start yerrrr…we shall definitely see…til then…;) 

Shouda Woulda Coulda?...

HAHAHHAHAHAHA…bukannya takde keje nak kene buat (in fact, byk juga dan juga dan x kurang urgentnya) tapi ntahlah, seriously selagi cuti Thaipusam ni x sampai lagi, selagi tu lah aku in holiday mood…tapi ade jugaklah assignments yang deadlinenya this week telah aku siapkan dgn jayanya…tapi tu pon sbb tight deadline…kalau tak, samalah jugak treatmentnya aku carry forward ke minggu depan…ni pon hah, disebabkan tahap kesangapan aku yang dah mula meninggi, lantas aku pon terus membuat keputusan untuk meluahkan apa yang tersirat di hati demi membunuh masa yang kurang dari sejam untuk sampai quitting time. Hmmmmmm…kalau korang perasan, tu dia kat atas tu, AKADEMI FANTASIA kembali lagi…musim ke-7 beb! Boleh dikatakan byk jugaklah tu…yerlah kan, time2 diorang mula2 dulu ramai orang tertanya2 ‘akan adakah AF musim ke-2?’…hahahaha, pejam celik pejam celik dah nk masuk season 7 dah…and nampaknya sekali lagi rakyat Malaysia sejagat akan memulakan sesi umpatan, tohmahan, cacian, carutan dan laharan sebaik je tirai AF7 ni bermula…ada yang akan meluahkan dalam blog, ada yang komen dalam chatroom, dan tak ketinggalan ade jugak nnt yang akan buat secara terang-terangan dalam mana saja ruang media yang dier dapat…tp tak semua mcm tu, ade jugak yang fanatic tu yang akan start observe mana yang akan jadi pujaan hati dan sekaligus akan mengundi pelajar tu sampai memegang title juara Insyaallah…As for me, owh well, ade pon okay, takde pon takpe…sbb AF mmg ade pros and cons dier…pros dier is that walaupon ade setengah orang cakap AF sekadar nk mengisi slot and sponsors nyer option (especially telecommunication anchors) untuk carik duit lebih, tpi hakikatnya diorang mmg ade syllabus yang kuat untuk para pelajar ni memahami selok belok industri seni tempatan, terpulang pada pelajar tu sama ade nk absorb dan mempraktikkan apa yang diajar atau tidak…banyak contoh yang kita boleh ambik…look at Vince, Adam, Kaer, Rich, Mila, Aizat and Stacie…walaupon diorang ni baru setahun jagung dalam industri, tp diorang dah ade individual success to savour…masing2 ade uniqueness yang tersendiri untuk tatapan peminat masing2…ade yang bukan champion dah boleh cipta nama atas usaha sendiri, dan ini byk terdorong pada apa yang diorang belajar dalam AF tu sendiri…so dari segi tu mmg AF boleh dikatakan bagus…tapi cons nyer pon x kurang hebatnya jugak…orang ramai semua dah sedia maklum yang AF ni nnt bila dah habis programming nyer, most of the time hanya sang juara je lah yang akan dpt byk exposure, and might even came up with solo album wayyyyy before the rest dpt chance…yessss, chance…yang lain tu mmg kene tgk chance and luck as well…berapa kerat sgtlah artis AF yang dah berjaya keluarkan mini album under pengurusan pihak Maestro tu (tak payahlah ckp pasal Full Album, mmg alamatnya tulis nama atas batu pon blom tentu dpt lagi), boleh dikira pakai jari sebenarnya…yang lain2 tu atas usaha penat lelah peluh nangis sendiri…so ntahlah…apalah pulak dramanya AF7 kali ni ekk…

And the million dollar question this time is…Should I try my luck again n AF?...ntahlah, untuk pengetahuan korang, I ni dah lama try ujibakat AF ni..starting dari musim ke 2 hingga lah ke 6 last year…bukannya nk riak, aku sll lepas pusingan nyanyian tu, boleh dikatakan semua round aku lepas…tp ntah di mana silapnya, mmg by the end of the day  mmg aku tak dpt akhirnya…pernah one season tu aku dah siap dishortliskan for KL…Top 30…sampailah diorang ke rumah aku buat kejutan…yup, I was THAT CLOSE…punyerlah excited sampai hampir satu keluarga aku call bagi tau…but, like I said earlier, it ends there je lah…coz masa buat kejutan tu jugak diorang inform me and my family that I was chosen for BACKUP purposes dulu…in other words, aku ni pelajar backup lah…in case kalau ade antara featured students tu yang menarik diri di saat2 akhir, then only these backup students will be re-looked and selected as the feature students to replace the pulled out students…on the surface, it looks like I still have my chance, tp yerlah, siapa yang nk tarik diri dari join AF yer dak?...so sambil aku menunggu tu tau2 programme tu dah nk start pon…so I take that as a no je lah…my parents (especially my dad) mmg crushed giler…I never knew he put a lot of hope on me in this AF thing…tp nk buat mcm mana kan? Aku dah buat ape yang patut, and yg buat keputusan is orang atasan ASTRO…so redha je lah…and sejak dari tu aku mmg every year gi tayang muka and ‘perform’ kat ujibakat AF…I ade bawak my cousin sekali on one AF season, and mmg nasib dier agaknya, dier berjaya terpilih as a featured student for AF…yup, I was excited as everybody else, and the atmosphere of us all having to vote for like mad and coming up with banners semua2 mmg lah gilaaaaaa…tak sangka we are around to witness and feel all that chaotic howling and echoing screams from the fans…mmg bangat lah kira…tp, I guess my cousin nyer rezeki mmg setakat jadi student je, dier tersungkur in one those weekly concerts…tp Alhamdulillah sekarang dier boleh dikatakan berjaya jugak dan mampu membina tapak sendiri dalam industri, nama dier pon rang dah kenal giler dah…good for you cuzzy  =)…I wish him nothing but the very best in his career and I know you know that I’m proud of you, I’ll always will…

So now, should I go again this year?...eventhough aku dah mcm boleh agak apa outcomenyer, tp still u never know kan, one of my is encourage me to try again this year…and ade relative pon yg nk pergi try jugak this year, at least bolehlah aku temankan relative aku tu and at the same time aku cuba2 lah sekali yer dak???....Hmmmmmm…need to put a deep thought on this one…we’ll see…:D

 

AAARRRGGGHHHHH...SO STUFFFFYYYYYY!!!!...Rimasssss!!!

AAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH CCHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Yerrrr...itulah ayat2 yang paling tepat untuk menggambarkan keadaan i sekarang ni...ntah kenapa ntah, bermula sejak 2 hari lepas, muka i ni terasa amatlah tak selesa sbb hidung asyik tersumbat, mata merah and soar throat yang agak membebankan juga...tp yg part soar throat ni, sebenarnyer i rasa ia adalah lanjutan dari luka2 waktu jerit di AJL-23 arituh...seriously, sbb dari situ mmg my throat dah problem akibat jeritan emosi luar kawalan and bukannya i jaga my throat pastu, lagi makan pedas, minum acidic drinks like OJ and other juices, minum air sejuk dan sebagainya lagilah...yup, akibatnya, sampai la ni pon dier x sehat2 lagi...sekarang bila dah chronic, barulah terhegeh2 gi doktor amik ubat ape bagai...sesuailah dengan muka sendiri kan?...so semalam gi jumpa doktor panel and dia bagi ubat and siap antibiotic lagi (alkisahnyer my throat dah infected) and ubat lain for my running nose, mata merah, kahak and the batuk itself..and the best part, siap dpt MC one day...so semalam lepas dah said bye to my colleagues, sepatutnya drive balik ke rumah dan rest lah kan...hehehehe...silap...instead, aku terus ke area PJ sbb nk ke Axcess Ticket nyer office nk beli tiket  JASON MRAZ nyer concert...RIHANNA pon x pergi lagi dah beli Jason Mraz pulak...but yup, dah berjaya beli dah pon, which means I'M SOOOOO GOING to both concerts Insyaallah...my cousins pon pergi jugak (Jason Mraz je lah) and we all beli harga yang sama, so i guess it'll be a our long awaited cousin day out while serenading the soulful tunes of Mr. Mraz...yippeeee...hope it'll be a good show...:)

So lepas tu gi lunch ngan my cousin kat Jaya 33 building tu, and then headed back to Ampang dgn niat nak berehat lah konon...tak...rupenyer terus ke rumah my sister kat KOJAYA lepak dgn my other sister (yang patah kaki tu) who is nursed kat situ by my nieces and nephew...lepak punyer lepak sampai Maghrib, balik rumah jap tukar baju, terus gi rumah 4F (the house where my other 2 sisters lived) and lepak lagi sambil tunggu my mom. my eldest sis, a fren and my younger sis balik from Bandung, Indonesia. Hidup mcm orang sihat kan...so semalam lepas diorang dah sampai and unloading their luggage and all, i pon baliklah...this morning, time nk gi keje, i realised that my illness is getting worst...hidung pulak start berair, suara pulak dah bunyi mcm hand-gagged Darth Vader, and my deria rasa langsung tak berfungsi...i can't smell or taste anything...owh man this is not looking too good...my sisiters sumer soh amik satu hari lagi MC, but i don't think i can afford that this week, sbb byk bende kene kuar by this week. Buts eriously i x comfortable langsung sekarang ni...seriously rase mcm nak balik...tapi apakan daya...takpelah, my sister ckp these things started sbb i dah start my Antibiotic course tu...so ni kira dier nyer normal side effects in reaching recovery lah..My eldest oulam soh minum air limau nipis suam dgn garam...errrggghhh, bunyi dier pon aku dah tak gemar...but seriously i rimassss...cepatlah baik plzzzzzzzzz...dah lah planning to use my voice for some discreet reasons this Saturday, hopefully i'll recovered by then Insyaallah...til then, saja nk lepaskan badi yang bersarang di dada je...til then, C YA!!!

THE SULTAN IS COMING!!!...THE SULTAN IS COMING!!!...:((

AIYOOOOOOOOOO!!!!...ape yang patut aku buat sekarang???!!!...HAHAHAHAHA...Hari ni seperti biasa, pagi ku masih lagi diselubungi habit moody aku, biasalah pagi2 ke opis...and seperti biasa aku buat keje and ignore semua Cina2 sekeliling aku (mentang2 lah dah nak Tahun Baru ni, mcm2 lah hikayat dikongsi sesama sendiri :P)...so aku mmg malas nk campur dan malas nk layan, aku buat je keje aku dgn penuh fokus...sekali dpt call from my dad's office, and he wants me to come down to his office right away...ade berita yang nak dikongsi bersama katanya...wooaahhh, jarang my dad tetiba intimate camni, sampai kol soh dtg nk share something...dont tell it's about my sister nyer complication (fyi, my sister fractured and dislocated her foot last Sunday sambil tgk AJL-23 kat Stadium Putra, Bukit Jalil...poor unfortunate soul)...everyone knows she's going for surgery...but, mungkin tu dalam kepala aku je, owh well, elolah jugak aku turun, dpt gak jln2 area opis amik angin...sampai je kat opis my dad...dier tunjukkan aku sepucuk surat...last time i did post a story saying that my sister is getting married this April kan?...and i also mentioned that my dad is planning to invite the Sultan of Kelantan and his entourage right?...MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA...guess what?...he's coming...yeahhhhhhh...THE SULTAN IS COMING TO MY SISTER'S WEDDING!!!!

DAULAT TUANKU!!!!!!!!

Oouuukkhhhhhh!!!...well, there's 2 ways for me to digest this...first...mmg happy gilerlah...kitorang berbesar hati sgt dpt berita ni...and my dad told me yang Sultan Kelantan rupenyer balas invitation my dad just a few days lepas my dad hantar the invitation...guna POS LAJU lagi...that shows his majesty's eagerness to attend this wedding...so i guess this wedding of ours will be one splendid and heavily grandeured wedding in our family's history...yesssssss...that statement right there is where my second thought of digesting this news comes in...HABISLAH KITORANG!!!...sure BERLAMBAK BENDA NAK KENE READY AND STANDBY FOR THIS WEDDING FOR THE SAKE OF THE SULTAN!!!...owh yeah, pihak istana siap tetapkan dress code for my sister's wedding ni...PAKAIAN KEBANGSAAN!!!...yesssss, so sesapa yg feeling2 DIOR ke, VIVIENNE WESTWOOD ke, VERA WANG ke, KLS ke, GUCCI ke apa haram jadah ke semua terpaksa kitorang HALAU KELUAR!!! (neeehhhhh, main2 aje :P)...my dad kata basically it's baju kebangsaan and suits lah...owh mannn, berserabut terus my kepala lepas baca surat tu...looks like the ground work is starting sooner then i thought it would be...tp takpelah, my dad cakap tadi kita usahakan dan lakukan at the very best of our ability...budget ke ape ke tu semua letak tepi dulu...we get the stuffs and contacts at hand and kita proceed with what has been planned...

Okaylah, pikir wedding nyer pasal, keje office aku di anak tirikan...til then...C YA!!!

Hahahaha...yup2...mmg lama rasenyer dah x kembali meluahkan perasaan kat sini...bukannya ape..i guess it's another cliche answer that anyone will use when it comes to enlightening everyone about their absence ke ape ke, i was quite busy sket for the past few months...not only office assignments and deadlines, tp family matters pon byk lah jugak...not that it's a bad thing or anything similar, cuma for the past few months my life has been surrounded with EVENTS...yessssss...hmmm, tadi sebelom menaip i realised that my last post was back in December 2nd 2008...sebulan lebih lah jugak tak mengblog...not to mention yg arituh i pernah state that I was going to Bandung and Jakarta kan...well, dah balik Malaysia dah pon and i must say comparing Bandung and Jakarta, i think Bandung is where i had a BLAST!!!...Eventhough it's not a metropolitan city (dier more macam Melaka/Cameron lah) but i guess people who lived and bred in the city somehow needs a break from it all to strike a balance in the outlook towards life, meaning orang bandar eloklah sekali sekala tu tgk2 tempat2 laid back sket, dok lama2 kat bandar boleh bikin stress dan gila juga sebenarnyer...because of its high altitude geographical location, Bandung was cold, rich with natural resources (like agricultural ativities) and not to mention the people are ULTRA FRIENDLY and quite good looking too, both the man and the woman (thanx to their Sundanese lineage as i was told, mata masing2 brown dan kulit putih melepak!), and not to mention eating their famous Baso like mad!!! it was FUN!!!...as for Jakarta, well, apa nk dikatakan ttg sebuah ibu kota untuk sebuah negara? BUSY, FAST PACE, dan teramatlah STUFFY!!!...the traffic (as in MACET orang Indon panggil) was safe for me to say, quite HORRIBLE...jarak antara windscreen kereta you dgn kereta sebelah adalah dalam satu inci setengah...yup, you can imagine padat macam mana kan...disebabkan kepadatan ni, their drivers somehow are skilled enough to cilok sesuka hati or break kereta sedekat yg boleh...nervous okay!!!...tp kan, tak nampak langsung accident ke ape, AMAZING!!!...well, bila pikir balik, ibu kota mana yg tak busy kan?...and not to mention Jakarta ni rupanya dier 60cm BELOW sea level, so dier mmg senang sgt lah nk ditimpa banjir...in fact, while we were there, ade a few times hujan and startlah jalan2 dier melimpah dgn air sungai yg agak kotor juga (samalah mcm Sg. Klang di KL ni)...tp it was all NOT THAT BAD lah...the treatment we got was very pleasing...i guess its nature for Indonesian people, FRIENDLY BANGET!!!...and shopping pon boleh dikatakan HEAVEN gaklah...barang murah2...at least that's what my mom told me, cause i don't shop...;P...but overall, the trip was definitely the break that I desparately need…all this while punyerlah I bebel nk gi cuti apa haram jadah semua kan…Alhamdulillah tercapai jua hasrat ku itu…next destination…HAHAHAHA…tak tau lagi bila, tp adalah tempat idaman…hehehehe…tgh mengumpul dan bekerja keras ke arah tu ni…we’ll see how things goes lah ekk…Insyaallah…
Well, like I mentioned just now, my life sejak kebelakangan ni ade byk EVENTS…well, awal tahun bulan 1 ni je my BIG family semua sama2 berkongsi kegembiraan dengan penyatuan anak buah kami dgn pasangan kesayangannya yang ALHAMDULILLAH di abadikan dgn ikatan pernikahan dihiasi pelamin impian…chehhhh kiasan ku…tp tu lah event our family awal tahun ni…korang semua sure paham what has to be done for weddings kan…BERLAMBAK BEB!!!...walaupon most of the dirty work are done by my niece’s family, tp yerlah, takkan lah pakcik makcik dan anak2 buah dok melopong menjalar je kan?...semua orang meringankan tulang masing2 menolong apa yg patut…and IT WAS FUN!!!...i guess gathering everybody up bergotong-royong is always a beautiful thing in every family…as what I was assigned, hehehe, me and my cousins Juai and Aizat are entrusted to ENTERTAIN…yeahhhh…kitorang menyanyi tau mlm reception tu…nyanyi lagu2 permintaan pengantin…it was nerve-wrecking sbb seriously singing for family occasion adalah jauh lebih pressure dari nyanyi untuk event org lain...to be honest we kinda messed up sket malam tu…tp, as long as orang semua x perasan, even pengantin x dgr pape, then it should be okaylah kot…;P…tp Alhamdulillah, yg wajib semua berjaya dilaksanakan dan event tu pon dijayakan dgn special sekali…semoga kekal hingga ke akhir hayat dan all the best to my niece and husband Insyaallah…
The very next day (the reception is on a Sunday night), seperti biasalah, keje, tp for my case, ada LAUNCHING pulak…my company launch a new product, and our company is THE ONLY COMPANY out of dier nyer worldwide branches yang launch that product in such a way…apakah produk itu?...it’s NISSAN GRAND LIVINA with IMPUL Tune Up!!!...car enthusiast sure tau nyer lah IMPUL tu apa…and yup, my company kata Nissan Malaysia is the brave one yang launch this particular model, even in Japan tak buat tau…katenyerlah…so my office mmg dah hyped out about it 2 months in advance…biasalah launching kan, advertising materials and collaterals ‘awal2 Subuh’ dah nak kene ready…so I dedicated the last few months of last year preparing all that…posters lah, leaflets lah, catalogues lah, billboards lah, banners lah, newspaper/magazine ads lah, powerscreen ads lah…tarik nafassssss…tu lah keje I untuk preparation launch tu…Alhamdulillah semuanya berjaya di settlekan sebelom ke Indon arituh…so for my part by mid December tu mmg kepala I dah clear giler…tu yg terus gi overseas :P…pastu, a few weeks after that…my family is dropped with another BANG this year…a GOOD BANG that is…tup3…first…dalam diam my nephew, one of my closest that is, has been dating this nice girl dier kenal dari mana ntah, planning nak bertunang bulan 2 ni nikah terussssss bulan 12!!!!...yeayyy…another wedding end of this year pulak, kira begin the year with a wedding and end it with another wedding juga…Alhamdulillah, dpt lagi sorang anak buah in law, of course lah excited kan…but…just as I was about to digest that in me, dalam diam juga, rupa2 nya my eldest sister has been going out with a guy in discreet for the past few months…and…AND…THEIR GETTING MARRIED!!!...THIS YEAR!!!!!...IN APRIL!!!!...AIYOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!...another wedding HAWAU!!!!!...this time dari family I lah pulak…OMG!!!...excited tu mmg lah excited, happy mmg lah happy…tp APRIL beb!!!...penat wedding my niece tu pon semua orang belom betol2 habis lagi, dah dtg pulak another one less then 2 months time…tp takpelah kan, elok lagi dedicate my time and will in these holy events rather then buat benda lain or tak buat pape langsung kan…;P…so prior to that, yesterday (11 jan 2009) kat my place kitorang buat lunch gathering with the entire clan in order to lay down who’s doing what for my sister nyer wedding pulak…Almost everyone’s there and HERE IT GOES AGAIN!!!! ;P…so semalam semua orang dah tau nk buat apa bagai, and since wedding my niece tu baru je berlalu, everybody somehow knows what to do and how to do it by having our niece’s wedding as a benchmark…with a twist that is…I heard my dad siap nak jemput Sultan Kelantan and his royal family and entourage to the wedding…ADOIIIII!!!!...tak pasal2 nervous dan stress bersawang di kepala semua orang…handling royalties ke wedding orang is not easy beb!!!...nk pikir security lagi, protocol lagi, and not to mention royalties di Malaysia ni SELALUNYER either akan FASHIONABLY LATE or OCCASIONALLY LATE!!!!...mmg semua orang kene stand-by dgn bende tu, raja2 mmg akan dtg lambat…tp takpelah, itu sekadar assumption kita je…but I know me and family will stop at nothing with challenges and we always deliver the highest quality of outcome that is groundbreaking and will definitely bring the house down in full totality!!!!!...chehhhhhh bahasa!!!!...;P
