OCD

I know I haven't posted for quite a bit now... and if you get a sense of deja vu, it's ok...don't change your channel folks, this is still my blog.

Aku cuma had a lot of things on my mind lately, and somehow, I tried to articulate those thoughts of what transpired over the last week or so, to try and sort out a lot of things, professional and personal.

Biasa lah... nipu ler kalao kata hidup ni tak de masaalah lak kan?

Well, some good things took place over the past week, but also some crap incidents that really left a bitter taste. Yerlah... aku kan senang affected.

Sensitive and all... but after much thought, I can narrow my condition down to the title of my blog.

What can I say?

I admit to having a condition that's more worrying than anything else.

I have obsessive compulsive disorder or OCD!

Yes, yes... I admit to being an obsessive compulsive! I know lots of people who fit into the category, but I suppose that it would be a further testament to my condition kalao aku nak ngata orang kan in this case when I have to speak of my condition first.

Some personal matter cropped up and it really got me thinking.

As I was telling someone, I remember this episode of Just Shoot Me (trust me lah nak amik sitcom as the place for my life's guide).

Maia (I think that's how you spell her name was giving Dennis this talking to about luring this girl into bed. The office geek says, "so what?" and sets Maia off.

Despite the unsightly nerdiness of him, he actually has something valid to share (this is TV ma) and replies, "So? Who made you the world's moral police? Did you ever think that people might like you better if you kept your mouth shut?"

That got me thinking.

Yes, aku memang terkenal sebab molot aku yang main lepas. But I've always assured myself people who know me, will look beyond and know my intentions.

But more often that not, I am wrong.

I am blamed for everything. Don't get me wrong... I'm not trying to play victim here... no siree...

I'm too strong a character for people to ever believe I could be victimised...even if I am!

I keep telling myself I have lost faith in human nature... tapi more often than not, I stick to what my parents taught me and give people the benefit of the doubt, and end up burnt.

Mmm... is it my OCD acting up?

People have always thought me dominant and controlling. Self-righteous and ever the queen of justification too.

Aiyak...macam macam... I don't know what conclusion to arrive at... but then again, I'm not looking for quick answers. Life is not black and white... and it sure as hell is no sitcom.

Arghhh!!! Malas tul problems... but what can I say... life's a bitch, now so am I.
I will NOT wallow in my frustration and anger... tapi aku takkan benarkan diri aku untuk live life as if it's a popularity contest.

As the line in What's Eating Gilbert Grape? goes... "It's the insides that count!"

And perhaps people should just give me a chance - give the world around them a chance to know what's inside.

People are superficial...shallow... and that's a truth that hurts.

What's that I hear you say... we all are?

Yeah.. I suppose. Tapi I try my best ler nak...oh never mind.

Why did I indulge in that waste of space? It's my blog mah... and like I said.. it's my theraphy!

Why waste it on shrinks when I have my blog.

Moving on, those of you who were worried about my health, don't worry, I'm fine. On Saturday aku gi check-up... my blood pressure was RIDICULOUS!

Mmmm.... looks like my personal episodes bagi my blood go upstairs more than I thought.

Despite being the poster boy of Coca Cola, aku punya sugar level normal (makan hati orang ni dan orang ni). So I'm basically ok, without going into too much personal details of my medical condition. Tapi aku kena follow-up check-up next two weeks kang.

I want to rant and rave about something, but I think I'll just bite my tongue for now.

Let me do a quick recap of what I've been doing for the past week.

Sebelum tuh, here's a pictorial guide to some stuff that will live on in my memory, wanted or otherwise lah.

First up (drumroll please) was this stupid operasi yang dijalankan polis trafik kat Shah Alam pada malam minggu. Memang stupid nak mampos! Why was it silly? Walaupun aku rasa PATUTNYA tujuannya nak tangkap mat rempit dan bohsia feeling stylo tonggek tunjuk kerak, it turned out to be a badly planned trap yang saja naya motorists!

Too complicated too explain, but in summary, kami nak makan kat cafe kat Dataran Shah Alam, terus kena kepung with road blocks everywhere.

Sampai nak parking nak makan pun takleh sebab keta yang kena parking keliling kena saman!

Come on lah...tengah malam... nak parking mana? Alam Sentral?As if!

Pastuh? Nak parking hotel?

Polis trafik dapat commission ke dari hotel tuh?

Weird!

Tak pasal-pasal kena saman sebab konon illegal turning (there were no signs even), WALAUPUN mangkuk hayun punya trafik leh divert traffic konon nak paksa orang masuk roundabout Seksyen 4. Masaalahnya kalau kami nak lari dari oeprasi satu hal... tapi kami sebenarnya nak carik parking kat area Dataran NAK SAHUR.

Bangap nya polis... aku kena saman, rilek je. Zack dah gelabah, tambah agik Ted kat sebelah dia.

Aku dok ngan pragmatist yang mendiamkan diri je.

Dia pas lecture Zack, polis tuh nak lecture aku lak. Aku pas explain dia masih nak lecture, aku terus cakap, "Skang ko nak syarah ke nak dengar aku jelaskan? Kalau aku jelas pun ko tanak dengar, aku rasa bang, ko saman je. Bukan aku tak mampu bayar!"

Terkedu sikit.Biarlah kredit pahala kurang sikit... tapi puas dari aku high blood kang! Tersengih abang-abang satu keta lagik yang dok kena lecture sebelum tuh.

So many things were wrong with the roadblock, sampai main fence off roads pun, takde safety markers sampai one motorcyclist (not a rempit) terlanggar dan terbabas. Kelakar tol... tapi kesian lak mamat tuh lak pastuh kena saman!

Kalau aku da saman da polis trafik for being so stupid and endangering people!

Next image to share... ni masa buka puasa Marhaban di Astro last Sunday kat Hotel Grand Blue Wave (grand ke?) kat Shah Alam.

Ok ler segalanya dari program sampai makanan... tapi aku turn off part ni je.

Look at that picture, if you can't make it out, dia punya air soya tuh, dari kotak punya, ala... yang Yeo's tuh. Not a problem.

I however have a problem with the staff, tengah-tengah orang melantak tuh, selamba

longgokkan the boxes and tuang masuk without a concern.

Ok fine.. so she's wearing gloves.... arghh!!! Pour it into a container or something and transport it before pouring ler. Oh never mind... just something to do with my OCD.

Next pointless bitching.... aku kat Immigration smalam to do my passport. Dahler thanks to some friends (you know who you guys are - tiga orang agik ni) bagi advice mana nak gi. So I took it and decided not to risk ke Putrajaya sebab jauh kang takder nombor ker haper... rugi je jauh-jauh. Then further delay nak renew passport lak yang tinggal tiga bulan lagik je.

So aku pun ke Plaza Masaalam kat Seksyen 9 Shah Alam. Matilah!!! Rupanya wat IC je! Detour balik ke Kompleks PKNS where the REAL Immigration is at.

Sampai sana, dah 12.45pm. Guard tak bagi masuk, sebab meka break kul 1pm (matilah puasa break sejam wat per?)

Aku pun kata nak tanya pasal rambut aku lepas ke tak etc (alasan nak masuk amik borang dulu). Dia tahan and insisted he could answer anything.

So I asked him nicely (muka aku leh nice ke?), "abang kalau leh jawab...then kenapa abang keja sini dan bukan sana (while pointing to the counter)".

Needless to say... sampai kat counter, kakak tuh rilek jerbagi borang and all (borang pon kena BAYAR RM1 ke???? - matilah very the extortionist!... just like the peddlers with canes selling tissues)

Came back after the break (kerana tension nunggu melantak McDonalds tak posa) and was back at 2pm.

Tunggu sampai 4.15pm baru sampai counter. Dengan penuh tension kat kesesakan dalam Immigration tuh (why do people want to bring their freaking kids along if they can't care for them - and why do adults as stupidly as rude kids, stare at you out of boredom until you wanna smack the shit out of them!)... I made my way to the counter.Only to find out, pics aku yang baru aku amik for RM10 kat bawah tadik... kena rejek!!!

Walaupun aku risau kaler rambut aku jadik issue, rupanya... kakak tuh kata piercing aku yang jadik hal.

Aiyak!! Aku kata mana ada ngatakan dalam pic tuh takleh ada piercing, lain lah nak wat IC, terpampang depan-depan!) Dia kata bukan sebab tuh, tapi takut aku takleh masuk negara lain!

Aiyak???!!! What the... never argue with logic of government departments... there exists virtually no possibility of winning, like the impossibility of there being any logic in the first place.

Spent another RM7 to take pictures from that instant passport photo booth. Kali ni lepas je rambut. Matilah mengerbang feeling ada angin wat music video lagi... mampos ler ko kalao tak lepas.

Ni lak... LEPAS! Matilah!!!

Rasa cam nak complain pasal the rules and procedures, and this is what I saw.Kat 'customer corner' konon leh tinggalkan feedback... kosong! Ada ler cebisan plastik kat dalam cam tong sampah.... I don't think I want to take one, thank you.

Bloody creeps... my first suggestion... make the customer suggestion work!

On a lighter note, kalao ko baca blog orang gila ni, I was said to have broken kerusi kat rumah Iban blueblood ni. Jangan percaya!!!

It's a set-up, and this picture (tangan Fiebie tuh.. as per trademark dia) and Juan sibuk pasang 'trap'. Ingat... nak percaya yang azab dan sengsara ataupun yang lapar dan dahaga!

And finally, before we get to my pictorial guide to how my week was (matilah seminggu utang punya posting all in one!)

Ni... masa aku ke Pantai Medical Centre, aku nampak public phone ni. Ok... so ni statement jakun sikit, but this is the first time aku tengok public phone camni. Lighted siot!

I don't know bout you guys, but since I hardly use public facilities, aku would hardly know ler. But this phone was kind of cool, and it was in the lobby area of the Centre sebelum naik lif nak ke specialist consultants' rooms.

Bentuk cylindrical dia pun cantik. Matilah takyah dua puluh salt lamps cam someone dalam bilik for the ambient lighting.

And finally... I promise this is the final punya final before we get on to the pictures I know all of you nak tengok (bukan banyak mana pon).

I had my appointment with a very friendly physician (nurses dia pun baik sangat... walaupun I think they were kind of freaked out by me - one of the nurses sampai berkali tanya aku kenapa aku nak posa)

So thank you Datuk Dr Khalid Abdul Kadir for being a great doc!

Caya lah... tak horror pun aku... walaupon memang aku menci nak check up dan sebagainya.

Trust me... I REALLY hate hospitals. Always think of them as places people die, rather than places people get well.

If you've seen me in a hospital before, you don't know how much I HATE being in one as very few people know my phobia of hospitals.Anyways.... ni Juan, yang temankan aku ke Pantai Medical Centre, layan bosan ngan aku.

We started reading a lot of stuff on the walls and boards.

Stuff about breastfeeding and all.. nothing much interesting to me.
Until I saw this little thing they had up on one wall.

It's a chart that shows the body's fat distribution.

Amik ko!!! Aku makan hati tengok yang women's fat distribution, takde sangat kat perut, and more on thighs and butt, cause that's what I sure as hell need!

Yerlah... the Chinese curse... no bum!

Tak caya?

How many male Chinese friends have you got? Look at their asses! Most of them will probably have the same flat butt! Memang orang Cina takde bontot ler...

Matilah mintak fat distribution camtuh... better cellulite than emptiness, I say.

Oh... camna aku leh lupa!
There's this picture I'm just dying to share!

Ok... for some reason, I took this pic of Ning masa kat Muzik Muzik last week... and for some reason she looked 'familiar'.

Aku tenung je kat dia until finally... I GOT IT!
Remember the original Star Trek which began in the late Sixties and stretch on and on and on and on and on...

Don't you think Ning looks like Nichelle Nicholswho played Lt. Nyota Uhura? Even though rambut tak afro, tapi there's a slight flip that is more or less.

Bibir dah konperm da... and the baju looks like an updated version. Teringat Ning kalao dulu pakai Motorola RZOR dulu pun... looks a little like that communicator used in Star Trek.
ok... never mind.. maybe it's just me.

And that concludes memories of no particular fond recall yang aku pun tak pasti kenapa aku nak share ngan korang.

Oh bugger....done already so don't complain lah.

Melodi Raya - Manhattan Ballroom, Berjaya Times Square
Seleksi gambar of my favourites for the day. Linda Onn, Farah and Umie Aida.
Bawah tuh Yazer... khas wat Fiebie - peminat nombor satu dia.

Sambungan pics diatas, here are a few more. First of Ning, Nikki and Yanie di interview Melodi. Second pic of Amir from RuffEdge. Next is madu Fiebie, which is of course Ekin (lama tak jumpa dia). And the final pic, idea Vernon nak posekan (don't ask me why) is Nikki and Yanie sekali ngan Ina (merasalah Mawi takde masa tuh)

And here's the final pic. Ni memang khas wat Fiebie! (matilah aku!!!)

Drama - Muzik Muzik - Sri Pentas 2, Plaza Alam Sentral
Here's a few pics. kalau nak lebih go to Vernon's page. Dia sampai naik gila amik banyak sangat, sampai orang production da risau sebab da cue nak abih commercial da, orang tuh masih posing depan stage konon nak angle terbaik.
Ni bukan pencalonan, and Nikki, Ning (motif dinch aku dari mencarut - too late dah-ling!) and Yanie, perform as tamu for the show last week.

Berbuka Puasa InTrend - Menara Kuala Lumpur
Next lot of pictures ni, aku suka sangat! These are some of the people I consider family and friends (mungkin ada yang aku carut sebelum ni, tapi kita tak penah amik hati kan... tul tak Haziq?)
First of course Nikki dan Faizal, second solo shot of Faizal and third, Diddy dan Haziq together.

And of course, the next lot of pics, miscellaneous sikit ler. Nak list kan semua ke? Let's see, dari belakang, Diddy, Salima dan ZZ. Depan, Nikki, Nora, Yanie, Karen dan Zila.Mak aih...letihnya... tu pun baru satu pic.

Next... si Rich dan Lotter (wat per tuh main teropong teropong ni... matilah carut!) Next kak Shahila dari production team Diari Akademi Fantasia with Amylea, and last masa surprise birthday celebration Diddy. Dalam pic tuh sekali yang tak muncul lagik pic sebelum ni, abang Badrul the ringleader pun ada, Farhan... depan tuh anak Linda Jasmine.

Last but not least, the best picture of the day, for me. The two sexiest and hottest babes (like I would know...), Nikki and Nana!!!

Berbuka puasa Astro dan showcase musical Seroja - Grand Ballroom, Palace Of The Golden Horses.
Ok...so I didn't quite enjoy gthe musical, not because it was bad, but because memang it was the wrong environment....susah nak hayati. Didn't stop me getting more nice pics. Cuma masa banyak sangat, so ni jer yang aku nak kongsi. Below, we have Farhan,

Majlis berbuka Puasa Diddy, majlis menyambut harijadi ke 21 Diddy dan pra-dengar Saling Terpesona, single pertama Yanie dan Diddy
This was an all-in-one event... aku tak banyak amik pics. Tapi kalao korang nak tengok agik, tengok ler kat page photographer tak bertauliah, dan organiser.
Aku dari event tuh nak share dua pics je. And aku rasa dua pics ni make a good closing for this entry.
Teka siapa dua tamu kat majlis ini melalui gambar mereka daripada belakang.
Clue : It's not Siti Hajar, Sahara Yaacob, Alleycats...Don't peek at the answer below!

DO NOT SCROLL LOWER!
Keep guessing!
Give up?
Ala...cubalah teka.... korang ni cepat sangat nak putus asa. Cepat!!!!
No peeking. Ko scroll lagik da spoiler da!

Dah... so that's the answer to the puzzle. It's Yanie and Amylea! So that concludes my extremely lengthy (I think the longest ever?) entry.
I know I couldn't really focus, and my mind was scattered everywhere, but hope you guys made some sense of it all.
Esok and so on, postings like normal. So make sure you guys come on back here.
Things are finally back to normal.
...almost.
By the way, it's not too late to wish THANK YOU to everyone for voting for Drama and making it NUMBER ONE kat Carta ERA!!!

Don't forget to keep voting!!! KLIK SINI and login with your epass and VOTE, VOTE, VOTE!!!
At the same time, jangan lupa, lagu Nikki dan Zahid, Caramu, masih berada dalam Carta Muzik Muzik. It made it's debut at Number One there, and stayed four weeks, pastuh dropped and stayed at second spot for two weeks and now is at third. So tunggu apa lagi? PULUN!!!

Ok... now I'm done. Mak aih... dah 2.30am! It took me over two hours to update this entry... ngan nak wat gambar pelbagai! Hope you guys stay on for my next posting. Terasa lelebih rajin lak tetiba nak posting.

Nak sahur dulu...

PS.
Pada yang beragama Islam, sila sedekahkan al-Fatihah buat Pak Abbas yang terkenal dengan "Macam-macam Ada" dan juga nama timangan Pakcik MMA, telah kembali ke rahmatullah pada awal pagi tadi. Jenazahnya telah dikebumikan selepas Zohor siang tadi.

Semakin bijak...

Akhirnya, Aidil had to call it quits!

First of all, kalau ada yang kata aku benci ngan dia - again - hey! Kita semua love Akademi Fantasia and at the end of the day, it's important to realise it's all TV!

So I despise Aidil's character - memang ler aku tak gemar langsung watak dia dalam akademi, poyo smacam. Let's not forget to talk about his dance...perlu ke?

But I have to admit one thing - there was change in his performance, but like with most of them yang keluar with maybe the exception of Amy dan Reza yang memang tersingkir ketika wat their worst performance, Aidil did show a slight improvement. He didn't sound so monotonous as he usually does. Kuda kepang tetap akan dirindui - sapa lagi ler kita nak kutuk kalau wat salah kan...

But whatever it is - again - the bitching stops here.

After all - suka ke tak suka Aidil - mamat ni irritating pun - he has enough sense of humour to laugh at himself.

Kelakar gak when Aznil announce nama dia, rebah terus dia!

Bebudak lain panic max! They started crowding around him. In the stadium (tatau ler nampak kat TV ke tak), Aidil's mom pun terbangun worried abih! It turned out he was just pulling a fast one on everyone.

Walaupun ada yang panik, seriously I thought he was just being a drama queen - true to himself to the end. Apapun - it was laughable I have to admit.

It was even laughable bila dia jadi the first contestant in history to be eliminated TWICE in one show!

Yerlah...dah si Aznil pun panik skali - wat cool balik kata..."Abang pun ada kejutan etc...pelajar yang sebenarnya terkeluar ialah (dramatic pause)...Aidil!"

Tergelak aku sampai nak jatuh kerusi. Adus....

Apapun, let's now focus on the remaining characters. Lagipun, kena conserve energy nak focus kat si Kefli sengau lak. If we're lucky - following the order ketika undian ditutup, Akma ler pasni yang next to go (no surprise because it was definitely antara dia atau si Aidil anyway tonight) followed by Kefli.

So the top five looks almost set - but then again, knowing Akademi Fantasia - the unexpected always happens, sometimes not always for the best of reasons.

Whatever it is - perlu diakui untuk empat minggu berturut-turut - dua orang tetap menguasai the stage. No, not Mawi...not even Felix. The most consistent and powerful two performers yang tak tercabar selama empat minggu untuk aku ada duo Marsha dan Amylea. Semalam, they put on another excellent performance!

The best performers di Konsert Akademi Fantasia minggu ke-6


Kalau diikutkan, they are undeniably the best performers with the overall package in Akademi Fantasia. Sayangnya, undian tidak menggambarkan kebolehan kedua mereka. I hope the voting trend changes. Bukan aku dengki atau nak jatuhkan sesiapa, dan bukan aku tak faham konsep reality TV. It's just that at the end of it - aku nak product hasil kelahiran Akademi Fantasia boleh dibanggakan walau ke tahap apapun.

But we know that's wishful thinking...

So did they do? Ni evaluation aku.

Yazer - Cinta Kilat (Broery Marantika)

He definitely can sing. And he definitely can perform. And unline Akma, he has the x-factor. Jadi apa yang kurang pada Yazer?
Entahlah. Tu sesuatu yang aku cuba jawab lately. Perhaps it's his attempt to portray himself as rock. Kalau tuk aku, he wants to try and be so rock, despite the comparisons to Bo Bice - I think of him more as a Constantine Maroulis who doesn't try too hard. Sebab at the end of the day - all I get from him are poser vibes. Should that be taken into account? Terpulang ler sapa undi dia kan...

Marsha - Destiny (Jim Brickman/Misha Omar)
Aku begitu yakin dengan kebolehan Marsha sebelum she began. And thnkfully I was not disappointed. Kalau aku nak critical abih, aku hanya mampu katakan her tempo was little off. Tapi bab tu aku rasa insignificant, because even professionals lack that ability kekadang nak coordination. Main piano sih!
Her overall focus kat vocals, expression, as well as playing the piano was just astounding. Other than that, her vocals were soulfully blissful! Memang aku dibuai lagu tu sampai cam terasa pendek lak lagu tu. It was definitely a high point for her, and she definitely improved and made it her best performance so far. Orang luar tengok memang leh impress gila ler Akademi Fantasia ada bakat camni.
Cuma aku nyampah ler Astro nak bagik tunjuk dia ni cam pompuan gatal. Bagi lagu yang seperti tu, fine. But I mean c'mon. Trying at every single step of the way nak portray her like that is ridiculous.

Kefli - Kenang Daku Dalam Doamu (Tan Sri SM Salim)
Kalau sesiapa yang rasa minggu lepas Kefli dah improve, dan mengatakan aku ni setakat anti dia, then minggu ni terbukti kata-kata aku yang dia ni sengau dan tone deaf.
Memang aku akui lenggok Asli ni bukan senang, and in fact aku da katakan pada diri aku kalau dia bak cukup makan pun aku leh salute ngan dia. Walau bagaimanapun, aku rasa his grasp of teknik cam tak cukup segalanya.
Tak flow langsung vocals dia, plus he seems to have a problem distinguishing apa tu dynamics dan apa tu volume. Ekspresi dia tak jadi sebab his play of dynamics instead turned ot to be shouting senselessly.
Still singing through his nose as far as I'm concerned, dan memang antara dia dan Akma jer ler berlawan minggu depan tuk tengok sapa tarik beg.

Amylea - Hati Ini Telah Dilukai (Kris Dayanti & Ajai)
Aku tak paham Astro. Seperti Marsha...dia ni one of the best performers. Tapi sepanjang minggu lepas, highlight je drama airmata yang mungkin bagi orang nyampah. Pastu - wat lagu duet tuk dia lak! I mean aku pun suka Felix, dan aku rasa gandingan mereka quite good. Tapi aku tak nampak keperluan untuk lagu ni menjadi duet (walaupun Felix tak overshadow dia).
The spotlight was Amylea's and she held it well on her own. Sepatutnya, benda ni ujian tuk dia - and the song should have been Biarkanlah - bersi Kris Dayanti yang solo.
Apapun, Amylea was spectacular. Meremang bulu roma aku....dan seperti Marsha terpaku aku mendengar! Lagi satu kebangaan Akademi Fantasia! Aku harap lepas ni orang akan mengundi ikut bakat dan persembahan ler...bukan lagi sentimen sebab consistency pelajar seperti Amylea dan Marsha selama empat minggu is proof they should be at No.1 dan No.2.

Ekin - Warna (Sheila Majid)
Mungkin sebab Ekin keluar after Marsha, dan directly lepas Amylea, terus show dia cam hampeh kalau dibandingkan dua orang pelajar perempuan before her.
Whatever it is, aku dah mula rasa bosan ngan persembahan Ekin. Stereotype. Sejak Mimpi Sedih, aku tak pernah nampak dia rise to the challenge. Ada package, tapi dia jenis masuk mould penyanyi one hit wonder yang layak satu it pastu ilang terus tanpa dikesan.
After Kefli dan Akma dah heret beg, dia dan Yazer leh tarik rambut sapa lak nak heret beg sebelum final. Yang pentingnya, terima kasih buat wardrobe department Astro kerana memberi kami lihat pakaian dalam Ekin ek.

Ganti je laa sesapa jaga wardrobe department tuh!



Mana taknya. Setiap kali dia angkat tangan, nampak tali bra. Corset dia lak nampak cam setakat hugging her with no support dan either akan slip down ataupun burst open.
Akibatnya, bila pusing je belakang, bukan je nampak strap bra habis akibat terturunnya corset dia, sekali gus (kalau tak silap sebab rasanya nampak), terkeluar seluar dalam lak bila corset nya naik lak.
Yang pentingnya - kalau pakai ler yang cantik sikit takper.
Ni cam BeeDees atau Triumph RM10 tiga pasang jek (takder ek yang sale RM10 tiga - ok ler then pasar malam nyer ler). Tapi...ni kes tima kasih pada wardrobe Astro skali lagik. Dahler bontot pun tiba-tiba ada riben riben lak!

Felix - Smooth (Santana featuring Rob Thomas)
Some people say I'm not fair in my evaluation sebab favourites aku tak penah kena carut.
Well...you're about to see me do it!
Aku sebenarnya memang dah support Felix dari mula lagi...tapi semalam...persembahan Smooth dia HANCUR!
Lagi teruk ler lagu tu kena steamroll mampos dari kalau dibandingkan masa Mawi ngan Beautiful Maria minggu lepas.
It was the most dreadful display of amateurism that I've ever witnessed and heard! Bukan sahaja kekurangan dari segi lupa lirik (dengar radio.blog bebetul), penguasaan bahasa dan comprehension....segalanya dari melody hingga ke tempo out gila babas!
Memang ler aku ngaku seronok tengok dia - as a performer. But he sounds like some two bit dangdut lounge singer nak wat lagu omputeh wat kali pertama lagu setelah mendengar lagu tu melalui player rosak.
Aiyo!
By the way - salah siapa. Nama lagu Smooth (as in licik ler bab nak tackle cintan cintun ni)...tapi aku tengok tak smooth langsung. Cam go-go boy kat Patpong siot! Mana tak Aznil pun terpikir nak cakap bab Thailand. Mintak-mintak ler Felix jangan ulang lagik keburukan teramat dia minggu depan because kalau ikutkan dia ler worst performance malam konsert keenam - dia yang patut tersingkir malam semalam.
Out of a scale of 10 - Felix scored a 0. Nasib baik penah tengok dia consistent selama ni - so leh maafkan sikit. Kalau tak dah sah golongkan dia dalam kategori Atie dan Mas.
Still...he's got charm....damn.

Aidil - Matahari (Amuk)
Macamana lagu rock ler kalau tiba-tiba di popkan. Thanks to Aidil, now we know. Kalau tahun lepas Bob berjaya membawa lagu Amuk, tahun ni Aidil tak dapat langsung sahut challenge genre. Dahler ni sepatutnya rock ballad....tukau lak jadi jiwang leleh punya lagu.
Apapun - I have to say there is a slight improvement in delivery dia dari segi tak se-flat selalu. He does apply more control and use of dynamics banding usually. Still....it was long overdue.

Mawi - Memori Cinta Luka (Nassier Wahab)
Aku seriously tak faham kenapa Astro selalu letak Mawi antara yang terakhir. Minggu sebelum ni pun second last. Kalau tak, kena last...takut orang tanak tengok ke kalau Mawi dah abis?
Apapun - minggu ni memang Mawi menunjukkan improvement. Kalau for me, in trms of vocals and performance, Mawi rank ketiga bawah kedua perempuan.
Yang pentingnya - dia berjaya connect to the audience (ketepikan nyamuk-nyamuk fanatik yang bising sepanjang lagu) and that is what being a performer is all about.
Mawi yesterday revisited to us the reason why he's such a charismatic figure onstage dan memang nothing shirt of amazing at his best.
Still - aku tak nampak kenapa peratusan dia (tau...tau....sebab dia popular) patut tinggi sangat sedangkan persembahan dia belum sampai pun tahap 'World'.
Yang pentingnya - disini aku nak amik kesempatan nak katakan, "Belahlah!!!" pada fanatik-fanatik yang tak reti hormati majlis malam semalam.
Tak salah bersorak...tak salah menyokong...ko nak mencarut pun lantak ko ler.
But it is nothing short of rude bila orang lain nak dengar kritikan yang diberikan ataupun note dia nak sampaikan, tapi tak dapat sebab bising nyamuk-nyamuk!!!
Masa Felix kena komen pengkritik pun, aku perasan ada gak yang bising-bising mintak pengkritik komen lebih teruk. Memang aku setuju Felix patut ditegur lebih....tapi look...I don't want to hear you saying it. At the end of the day, you're nobody.
Walaupun sah ada pihak akan katakan suara-suara tu bukan milik Mawi FC - aku rasa fan club kena kaji elok-elok dan jangan salahkan peminat fanatik yang diluar bidang kuasa Mawi FC saja kerana aku rasa antara anggota pun sama je 2x5. Lagikpun suara-suara sama yang tak habis-habis chorus "World!!! World!!! World!!!" gak yang kedengaran waktu perli, kutuk dan bising non-stop sampai Aznil pun kena laser sedas mintak meka wat masa commercial break je.
You want respect? Then you bloody earn it. Macamana orang nak hormat dengan fan club camni? Perlu ke aku ingatkan lagik pasal Mas FC dulu? Apa bezanya Mas FC dan Mawi FC?
Kerana panas sangat ngan bisingnya nyamuk-nyamuk, sampai aku ilang control lak masa pengkritik tengah komen, aku toleh kebelakang tuk sembur Ridsect cap carut aku ngan jerit balik, "Wei! Diamlah! Bodoh!".
Malu sat gak sebab I sunk that low...tapi dah geram sangat.
Aku sokong Mawi as one of my choice finalists - even though dia tak consistent. Tapi aku nyampah peminatnya yang da mula taksub, mostly buta seni...and terlampau ikut perasaan.
Kalau blog aku kena serang yang peminat Mawi selepas ni pun - aku tak heran sebab lagi aku bahan bukti (best lak dapat tunjuk Mawi bila da abih Akademi kang).
Apapun - perangai fanatik dikalangan peminat Mawi terlampau dan telah ditegur berapa kali...trust me...every action has an equal and positive reaction.
Jangan Mawi jadi mangsa tak pasal-pasal dah.

Akma - Hati Keliru (Misha Omar)
Seperti persembahan Akma, komen aku pun da jadi stereotype and repeat performance. Takder x-factor. Malas komen lebih sebab sakit jari pas komen panjang-panjang pasai Mawi. Dah sah minggu depan dia atau Kefli akan kuar.

Nak tengok pics eksklusif mereka yang tersingkir menghadiri konsert semalam? Apa lagi? Masuk lah ke [klubbkidd's rave] - The fotopages! Yang pentingya JANGAN LUPA vote/undi untuk aku kat Malaysian Topblogs.

Kalau ada peminat Aidil, tinggalkan pertanyaan, tinggalkan diruangan Comments untuk interview aku ngan dia Isnin ni.

Sila ingat aku akan cuba paparkan jawapan, hanya kalau soalan tu bernas, dan tidak berbau sentimen anti sangat ler. After all, dia pun dah dok luar da...

Ok...be blogging soon.

*EXCLUSIVE INFORMATION*
Untuk peminat Akademi Fantasia saja.

Nak tau album sapa akan keluar? Sudah pastinya Adam akan keluar dalam bulan September dengan KRU dengan album solonya. Kaer bawah Broadway dalam proses akan memulakan rakaman.

Meanwhile, last Friday gi office Maestro. Dah memang tau Maestro akan release album Linda mungkin awal August diikuti penghujung bulan tu ngan album Bob dan Zarina.

Jumpa Linda setelah berapa lama dia bercuti balik Ranau.
