Coming up!

Ok...you guys aku tau most of you caught the AC DI Sini episode kan. Sebab ramai tinggalkan komen pelbagai kat sini, kat msjbox dan tagboard.
Well, honestly, aku bangga gak Mawi jawab camna.

Merasalah bangga ke ngan Linda jawab pasal Fahrin?

Cuma geram sikit sebab takde conclusion in the sense that wartawan yang tulis artikel tu dikatakan tidak menghadirkan diri. Bukan apa... aku respect each and every one of my colleagues in this industry.

Cuma bila orang pandang negatif seorang dua dan persoalkan bab hasil penulisan, apa lagik, tempias la kat the rest of us who try our best to be responsbile in our writing from every aspect.
Still, it was a good move for Mawi to bawak semua 'teman rapat' yang ada time kat Sydney, so that sesiapa leh soal aktiviti an kejadian di sana to verify the situation.

Oh well...

Oh by the way, sapa yang nampak aku typing on a laptop! Tu bukan aku ok.. tu kon jer. Keji taw production suka wat hal. Aku da agak meka mintak dok sana mesti ada lobster behind the stone gituh. Elak punya elak, masih kena! Sedar masa SMS masuk je.

By the way guys, masa tuh bukan update blog ok. Heh... aku tau ramai ingat aku update blog masa tuh. Sebenarnya tengah transcribe apa meka cakap kalao kalao perlu tuk digunakan untuk hasil tulisan kerja nanti. Kira quote la...

Aduh... camna la ni. Damn damn damn... erm... but that wasn't me ok. tetap in denial)

Anyways, don't want to write too long... enjoy the pics (tak amik banyak pon sebab malas) as well as this short video aku buat tuk Mawi send his message to his fans. Apapon Mawi, as long as ko tau jaga diri ko... and do the best for yourself, I'll always be your friend (erm..kawan bukan sebab popular ek.. dulu kawan masa kuar Prelude orang tak amik kira pon kan?...keji)

Over and out...

Biarkanlah

Kalau nak faham what the characters disebelah ni mean, check out kak Min's blog. Oh alright... let me just say, it means something along the lines of, in the name of kind/merciful God. Yer... yer ada kata aku plagiarise lak kan pasni. Heh... well.. kak Min.. pinjam jap ek.

奉大仁大慈的真主之名 also translates apparently, quite directly to Bismilah-i-rahman-i-rahim.
Why did this particular choice pique my interest. Sebab it's a shame how intelligent, superior some claim tapi resort to juvenile name calling and proves themselves racists and bigots.
Yes... I am Chinese... time aku bagik makan, ko ucap tima kasih. Time nak hina ko panggil aku babi.. Cina babi.... senang kan?

Or the fact I'm Christian. Apa ko nak panggil aku? Kafir? Pemakan babi? What else... do your worst.

Do it and prove me right. Me? I couldn't be bothered. Smear campaigns? I don't need to . You can't blind people to who you are or what you are. Lambat laun, bangkai berbau.

Justification? If it makes you happy...

Like those characters uttering something so simple yet so binding...of mankind regardless of race or religion, or any other borders, I choose to embrace all. Stupid people even... cause somehow someway... even cockroaches balance the ecosystem... I'm sure we can find a use for you somehow... nevermind the inferiority complex.

Oh well.

Won't get pulled into it. No more drama, right? I can do damage, but biarkanlah. Some people need to validate their existence that way... biarkanlah.

Lagikpun, anjing menyalak luar rumah aku tengah malam pun aku biarkan... takde lak aku nak gi try and silence them.

Anjing kurap yang takde rumah, tak cukup makan... nak wat camna. Because at the end of the day, sometimes, it's a risk where it bites the hand that feeds them. Oh anyhoo... been there done that.

So name calling aside, stick and stones... biarkanlah.

I know what my career, my future and everything else about me is like. I'll be celebrating my 31st birthday in less than five days.

Older...wiser... more stable... emotionally in control...

Well, eleven years plus has taught me a lot about this industry... that there are a lot of pretenders and posers who think it's about the spotlights and claim themselve better... so they think they want to weasel their way in. At least some I've met before had proof of credentials.

So let them attempt it. Who cares...

ATTEMPT is the key word... cause empty threats are nothing. They forget in their vain stupidity that they shouldn't f**K with those who know their weaknesses. And boy... I can't wait to get going. But restraint... I have to practise restraint.

Biar ingat sebab kertu da pandai meka tuh.... biarkanlah.

Sebab kalao they take a reality check...they pretty much know their self worth. I don't do inferiority complexes.

Too boring. And more often than not it comes from ugly people with boring lives that comes with an inflated ego due to some inner emotional crap they haul everywhere.

Biarkanlah.

Let sleeping dogs lie (lie operative in every sense and meaning of the word here).
Anyway... busy busy busy ari ni. Bukan busy dok ngadap PC nak pikirkan what to do with my life... buat keja dowh!

Nak abihkan sikit agik then nak tidur. Another busy day of making money... earning a living, which is some of us real folks do in the real world.

Moving on... heh... malas taip panjang panjang sebenarnya entry hari ni...tadik jumpa Mawi ada interview sat. Sebab esok (Jumaat, kul 9 malam) dia ada erm jawab beberapa tuduhan pasal isu konon 'lalok' kat Sydney.

Lepak kat MidValley where he was having a show, makan dinner take a break from my hectic schedule. Pas interview, Mawi ajak ikut sekali ke keta amik barang.

Lor... t shirt dia beli kat Sydney arituh. Merasalah dua bulan perap dalam beg jer...ewww!!!
But thanks anyway bro botak. Ni pun da cukup ler for my birthday...takyah agik apa apa. Cantik ok t shirt Hard Rock Sydney nih... me likey!



Thanks Mawi.... orang kata it's the thought that counts. And thanks for being a friend! Makes me appreciate the ones I have more, and the ones who aren't a lot more for not being it.

Heh... cam kesial ari ni melalut. Oh well... gotta sleep. Esok packed day again! Nanti aku cita. Eventful day tomorrow.

Ikon

Memandangkan aku sibuk nak banyakkan update yang terbengkalai nih, sempat nak announce sikit pasal Ikon.

Yang layak dari kategori solo Dayang Nurfaizah dan Jaclyn Victor, while from the group side represented by OAG an Flop Poppy. No surprise sangat kan?

Yang wakil pemenang SMS tuk kedua kategori akan diumumkan kelak, minggu depan actually.
So apapun, congrats to Dayang, Jac, OAG dan Flop Poppy. Memang layak lar meka dapat tempat in the final. And kita tunggu dua orang lagi layak dari kiraan SMS.





Untuk tangani kelewatan aku nak update these past few days sebab sibuk, most of my entries will now be shorter, kecuali kalao aku ada masa. At least lebih regular ler update aku. Letih bung, kekadang sebab pics banyak nak resize, upload dan sebagainya. Berejam gak nak link kan bebanyak pics ni.

Pas siang ke Astro tuk PC Ikon, rush lak balik opis, wat keja, then rush out again ke Menara KL tuk event annual dinner KRU Music Group yang ke 15.

Ramai gak yang hadir, tapi malas tahap gaban nak amik pics at all. Only pic menara satu nih ler time aku nak naik aku shoot dari base.

Lawa ok...

Walaupon da dekat kol 9 malam, tapi the whole sky lighted up ngan the city skyline gituh sebab cloudy.

Once in a while, aku rasa tak salah aku lebih suka post kan pics seperti ni. Pics artis dan kawan kawan selalu sangat da. Apa salahnya pic pemandangan camnih kan...kan... kannnnnn???!!!
Anyhoo ramai la...majoriti meka bawah KRU hadir. Aznil, Dafi, Flava, AC Mizal dan banyak lagi.
Si Nana jadik host. Makan melantak, lucky draw, lots of speeches, couple of performances, and then I moved on home sebab memang ngantuk sangat tak larat.

Tapi sampai rumah lak pikir pasal blog terbiar paksa diri spend an hour nak upload semua pics brapa hari ni nak updatekan blog.
Aduh...kadang kadang malas gak amik banyak pics ni... tapi bila da settle happy lak blog dijaga and tended to.

Esok another busy day sebab pagi buta da ada preiew filem Haru Biru. After that, gotta follow up with lunch with pihak Starworld dan Channel [V],

Got some quite happy news, Selain nak gi Singapore TWCE next month on assignment, nampaknya aku akan ke Bangkok pun for a while. Erm... banyak la shopping nampaknya aku ni. Pokai....susah wo nak saving camni.

But then again, I do have some things on my shopping list, so maybe the trip came just right. May just time it with my vacation days sebab rasa nak extend dok sana lama sikit nak shop around for stuff.

Meanwhile... just got to keep busy. Six days to go....

Bag ladies





Tadik jumpa Vern and abang Bad for lunch (lunch la sangat aku takde selera nak makan). Tapi yang kelakarnya, ni himpunan koleksi bag memasing yang berisi laptop dan juga bebenda miscellaneous dalam kategori don't leave home without it.

Can you guess sapa bak apa? Actually I think each person's character is reflected through their choice.

Flash, simple and erm.. mature (nak kata kertu kasar sangat lak)

Actually tired as hell sebab mata pon da takleh hold open. Even through lunch lethargic je. Not sleepy enough to stop bending forks and spoons sampai abang Bad took away all the cutlery.

Keji.

Need sleep. Plus so stressed with so many things occupying my mind. After we cleard off, caught a movie on my own.

Ok...slept for 10 minutes at least mid way through the opening, but the panggung pun quite kosong so ok ler.

Then plus bertubi dapat phone call lak towards the end, so missed a couple of minutes there. Abih je, gi Bangsar Village. Lepak Starbucks, ke Toys 'R Us (I don't wanna grow up...I'm a Toys 'R Us kid...) until about 9pm. Decided to call it quits then sebab nak balik tidur.

Another full day tomorrow. Looks like this week is going to be quite punishing.



By the way, dari Palace Beach and Spa, gerak ke Restoran Seri Melayu for breakfast. Ada PC pelancaran program baru kat sana.

Rancangannya Sarapan Di Mana? hosted by Abby Fana. Directornya Wan Kamaruddin and it's going to start soon on Astro Prima on Sunday mornings.

Dapat ler preview pilot episode. Quite good.

One of the better morning shows aku penah tengok so far. Nak tau pasal apa kena tunggu dia start layan sendiri sebab malas nak review. Just take my word, it's worth a watch!

Over and out...

Beach boys and girls

Arinih cuti!!!!! Leh? Well not really. Sebenarnya, Astro bak kengkawan semua 'bercuti' kat lokasi rahsia. Rahsia sangat la. Malas naik bas ngan meka terus meka bagitau kat Palace Beach Resort and Spa belakang Mines je.

Heh...tempat tuh penah lalu je... tapi bila langkah, terpegun gak. Quite beautiful really. Tatau lak it was this nice.

Let the pics do the talking gituh.

The lobby


The view


Kan da kata. Cantik kan? Tambah agik the view from my room nih yang lawa gila.

Depan bekas lombong (da kawasan Mines), meka cantikkan the scenery wat ala ala pantai gituh. With the lush greenery (over cam holiday pamphlet lak) memang meletop la.

Mata letih pun cured instantly. Masa check in tuh pun gegas dari office, so by the time reached there sempat ler take in the sights and chill out.

Member Press ramai gak ada, so ok ler. Fun.

Takde schedule yang official, and the only program pun dinner. So lepak punya lepak... sampai dinner.

At dinner, we went down to the beach buatan manusia nih and scoffed down the food. Erm... banyak la aktiviti pastuh. Naik bot la.. manicure pedicure la... urut reflexology la... mengumpat la (ni aktiviti sendiri, tak disediakan Astro)

Personaliti Astro berapa orang je hadir, but it was enough nak kecoh. Spent most of the night with Sarimah. Kak Mah Gali da lama tak ngumpat ngan dia...besh pala dia. Memang leh masuk pala. Banyak la gosip aku diupdatekan.

Heh...tapi besh dapat cita mimpi Sarimah. Takleh cita sini. Cuma...erm..no lah tajleh kongsi. Mati aku kena selipar ngan Sarimah.

Mila pun ada.... Farish... Shawal... Yasmin Hani... so we kept ourselves busy till midnight, with no program suka ati jer ler layan pala.

Ni some of the pics yang aku amik. Erm.. bawah sikit ada video khas aku edit. Heh... khas buat peminat Mila.

Tapi the video for fun je ek... so jangan nak carut kualiti video tak seberapa tuh. Aku pakai handphone je nak rakam tuh, so it's not exactly the best la dari segi kualiti pic dan sound.
But, for now... on to the pics...

Mila pose sakan on the boat, Kak Mah Gali muncul suddenly ala magic to enter frame.



Anak sapa lak ni. Erm... pic lagik satu tak nampak tapi Kak Mah tengah feeling Titanic tuh.

Shawal pon nak pose on the boat. Mila tak kuasa, gi urut kaki.


Hani nak balik awal... Shawal erm.. pose lagik.


Farish dan
Shawal erm.. wat kuku??? Sapa kata laki takleh manicure.


Aku amik pic of Kak Mah tengah amik pic kita. How profound!!!


Side view. Front. Then bosan makan cekelat si Mila ni.




Orang da balik Mila oi... ko gayut ngan sapa tuh???


Termenung kat tasik menyanyi tuh kenapa. Rupanya wat Hindustan tak jadik ngan Farish. Heh!!!


Ni kumpulan baruke ni??? Very the....


Juan tengah layan gila nak Titanic gak. Merasalah kalao ko memang karam bot sun!!!


Kaki celebrity! Sapa ek? Mila la.. time nak urut kaki.


Kak Mah pose evil! Erm.. seram lak tengok pic ni...


Mila kenapa tuh...


Nak makan cekelat agik rupanya.


Eleh... malu ler konon pose makan cekelat...


I hope the pics tuh make it worth the wait sebab aku lambat update. One more thing... aku tau ramai da tertanya bila aku nak buat 60 Saat Bersama.. lagik kerana dulu penah aku janji nak make it a regular feature.

Well, put it this way. Aku ada masa aku buat ok.

Sementara tuh... semoga terhibur ngan Apa Itu Bersama Mila (keji tak title?). Enjoy guys...

Slank!

Semalam layan Konsert SuriaFM Green Everyday or whatever it's called. Malas nak posting panjang panjang, so bebanyak aku post pics jer lah ek.

Hope you guys like it. Tapi yang beshnya dapat jumpa Samuel Rizal (ala yang lakon Eiffel... I'm In Love tuh). Tak bump into Nicholas Saputra...but sempat lepak ngan Titi DJ, Yuni Shara and Slank!

Ramai gak local artis terlibat...so ok ler. The event last the whole evening into the night so was a bit bushed by the end of it. Not my thing to stay up late... must be the age thing. Apapon, it wasn't exactly the best concert I've been to sebab kelam kabut, generator blow, and banyak technical problems.

Erm... on with the pics je laa..

Dafi and Jac.


Imran Ajmain dan Samuel Rizal


Hani dan Faizal


Amer Sofaz (smart da botak)


Slank!!!


Showmanship Slank top notch!


Penonton overdose time Slank.


Amik ko..siap catwalk lagik stage dia.


Yuni Shara


Sempat touch up katanya...


Pontianak berubah wajah (luv you Maya!)
