Ari ni keluar rumah awal. Yerlah...wanna go retail theraphy sat.
Shopping ler apa lagik. Da lama tak kuar siang ke Kuala Lumpur ni nak
bersiar. Selalu sibuk ngan keja, tengok KL ke mana assignment takes me
jer.
First stop, kol 11 pagik sampai je Berjaya Times Square. Am having
lunch as I write... er.. type this kat my favourite spot to makan in
Bukit Bintang, iZZi (merasalah la bila meka nak bayar aku nih sebab
asik dok promo meka jer). Got to run to Times Square again pasni
sebab nak pick up some stuff I ordered. Yes people. I don't know how
much I blew today on a new wardrobe, and I am NOT going to count sebab
takut heart attack kang. Heh... Ok...actually ari ni takde per nak
posting sangat. Tapi sebab ari ni kan Judgement Day, final Akademi
Fantasia, aku nak cakap sikit agik berkenaan ngan all this bull that's
been happening. Yesterday, an article appeared HERE
about the Debat Akademi Fantasia. Aku tak bothered tapi sebab ada
kengkawan da cut and paste dan letak kat ruangan Comments dan juga
bertanyakan about it di msjbox dan tagboard, so aku nak komen. But
sikit jer. Tak banyak.Sikit je.Aku amik beberapa line daripada story
tuh dan komen. My comments in bold.
Program yang sepatutnya menjadi tempat bertukar pendapat menjadi tempat melepaskan geram dan perasaan pula. - Bukan
semua pendapat boleh diterima pihak tertentu kalao ia melibatkan komen
negatif terhadap yang mereka minati. So kenapa nak anggap lepas geram?
Kenapa sampai begitu sekali perasaan benci yang meluap-luap terhadap seorang pelajar AF5 yang bernama Aswad? - The point is sympathy votes, not we hate Aswad. Itu bukan tema statement statement aku.
Sedangkan kalau tidak silap, topik yang dibicarakan seharusnya berkisar tentang "keberkesanan lampu biru." - No it wasn't. Memang silap kerana topik adalah AF5, Menjadi Atau Tidak?. That was one of the many sub topics.
Namun topik itu akhirnya bertukar menjadi medan membelasah Aswad dan Aswad dan Aswad. - Er...last 10 minutes je from an hour long programme jadi medan belasah ek?
Terkejut juga mendengar cara dua ahli panel meluahkan idea bernas mereka untuk menegakkan apa yang mereka fikir. - Bukan ke itu tujuan suatu Debat?
Tidakkah semua persoalan itu sudah obselete memandangkan konsert akhir akan berlangsung dalam masa dua hari sahaja lagi? - Obsolete? When we're discussing a topic that's about the whole season and not the finale? Go figure...
Yang
hairannya ketelusan program ini telah dieksploitasikan untuk
kepentingan orang-orang tertentu. Apabila kita terlalu ghairah
cuba mempengaruhi orang-orang di luar sana dengan pandangan kita yang
bersifat judgemental itu, bagaimana mungkin kita mampu bersikap profesional, fikirkanlah? - And the point of this article is? And how professional is it (komentar selanjutnya dibawah)
Sungguh hebat penangan Aswad sehingga kehadirannya menjadi kebencian hampir semua wartawan hiburan. - I'm not even about to go into ethics here... tapi tu kira hebat ek?
Tidak
dinafikan Astro telah berjaya mencipta kejutan, polemik dan fenomena
baru dalam AF5 di mana seorang pelajar yang dipilih oleh Adnan Abu
Hassan dan Deja Moss ini di Hotel Grand Continental, Pulau
Pinang di peringkat saringan boleh menimbulkan kontroversi yang
sebegini hebat. - Pencarian bakat ke pencarian kontroversi. Renungkan.
Kononnya,
kehadirannya hanya sekadar meraih undi simpati kerana bakat yang
ada tidak sebesar mana. Semakin terdesak kelompok anti-Aswad ingin
membuktikan semua ini, bertambah kuat lagi kubu pertahanan
Aswadfrenzy, penyokong-penyokong yang on the fence selama ini juga kemungkinan akan bangun mengundi Aswad. - And the point of this is? Komentar selanjutnya yang berkaitan diatas sekali.
And pelik kan, tapi dalam the whole thing is, not too far away, a few
pages off, dalam sebuah column yang di panggil Kolum Kakak Tua (click SINI tuk baca) yang penulisnya menggunakan nama pena je.
Tapi yang peliknya, in the same online publication, ngan article begitu
'sincere' dalam mengkritik, ada lak komen kakak tua ujung article INI yang mengatakan :
KAKAK TUA - Bagi 'biasiswa' pada satu pelajar sahaja setiap minggu..... 'LINE CLEAR!'
So dalam time musim Akademi Fantasia ni yang memasing emosi, biarlah
aku dituduh memacam. Tapi pelik kan. Semua wartawan hiburan benci, ada
lak yang perjuangkan ngan tuduhan orang lain emosi dan sebagainya.
So pikirkan sendiri. Everone mampu berfikir untuk diri sendiri. Aku
malas nak gaduh gaduh ngan orang, dan jangan lah benda remeh yang
frivolous entertainment nih cam Akademi Fantasia, digunakan nak tayang
hebat. Aku rasa lain kali kalao ada pihak produksi nak panggil aku
tuk apa apa konsep Debat, aku nak suggest beberapa nama yang aku nak
berdepan. Senang je...cakap belakang senang... like the comments by the
forummer below...senang kan kalao nak main hentam kalao nama sendiri
dirahsiakan. Ok...nak ke Starhill sat sebelom Times Square, then to Stadium Putra. See you guys there. Dan ingat...AFUNDi Mila, Heliza, Candy, Ebi!!!!! (bias nya aku kan? cam ler orang lain takde pilihan)
Professionalism is so subjective...
Oh well...
sariza June 16, 2007 10:50 PM PDT ASWAD memang best!walaupun Aswad tak dapat jadi juara,tapi dia tetap di hati kami(aswadfrenzy),semoga Aswad terus berjaya.LINE CLEAR!
iza May 20, 2007 08:51 PM PDT i agree with u, kalau tak 100% pun. disebabkan si kakak tua tu peminat si aswad, he's condemning u sebab u were saying what u thought it's supposed to be. euw. idiote. go man. u rock.
azmer May 20, 2007 08:42 PM PDT compare aswad to mas, i would pick mas. at least she is a performer if she put her heart into it. as for this guy, he wasn't good enough then, he is going to get any better now, especially when 'rock kapak' era is over.
dreamerz May 20, 2007 03:26 PM PDT ehe apsal la ebi x menang..eheh
Naqib Ibrahim May 20, 2007 01:28 PM PDT xkisahlah joe..kita sokong sangat apa yg awak kata kat debat tu..dengan pengacara yg berat sebelah (memanglah dia kena sokong AF tp buat apa buat debat kalau sentiasa nak menangkan diri sendiri), kita kira bro berani kerana benar..bahkan ogy n roslan xpertahankan si gelap tu, nampak sgt diorg pun sedar memang betul kata2 bro!
apa2pun, mila dah menang..bukan setakat bro jer gembira, tun yg sakit pun melompat2 kot gembira juara sebenar menang...hehehe.lebih plak xpasal2 kena gam huhuhu",
klubbkidd May 20, 2007 08:19 AM PDT so when people have an opinion it's know it all ek. well well well...how surprising lol!
fraimee May 20, 2007 04:19 AM PDT huhu...sedihnye man united kalah...
tapi gumbira coz MILA menang!!!
alhamdulillah....
nik2121 May 20, 2007 02:16 AM PDT Ye ye! Chelsea menang!
Off topic. Muahaha...
elly.s May 20, 2007 02:15 AM PDT hurrrrrrraaaaayyyyyyy!!!!!!!
Mila juara!!!!!!!!!!
Ebbbbbiiiii jugaaaa!!!!!!
Dapat keretaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!!!
hmmm May 19, 2007 11:02 PM PDT well, well, tu dia mr. know-it-all.... lets pray one day he will own a tv station then he can have his own talent search reality show so he can find the best n save the ailling local music industry, better yet he can also have his own award show, cause he's simply the best.
nik2121 May 19, 2007 08:54 PM PDT Huhuhuh... Sempat lagi ke AFUNDI ni? Bknnye server no dah kejung ke? Maklumla, dah waktu kritikal ni. Hehehe...
ApeČ pun, aku harap yg layak je akan menang....
contest.in.motion May 19, 2007 06:55 PM PDT tau tu klubby, tapi inilah realitinya...namapun reality show... people tend to do funny things, beyond one's comprehension gitu....
dia menang tak pe, sbb he has not yet ventured into the real world.. just remember what happen to taylor hicks...la ni christ gondolhead lagi happening....
so, there's every possibility yg dafi, aizat (horror??!??), shawal, whoever will be more of a star than the winner... tak mustahil langsung kan..?
cuma nak kata, apa yg jadik pada aswad is not entirely his fault...
dia berjaya tak di luar nanti, kita sama2 lihat.....
~ cuma ngundi mawi and zahid and bob~
'-D
klubbkidd May 19, 2007 06:44 PM PDT well.remember there is such a thing as expiry date kan? pepandai ler...real life lasts longer than just 10 weeks.
contest.in.motion May 19, 2007 06:14 PM PDT klubby klubby...i'm not the least surprised if aswad wins tonite, because people like the underdog...
lagi ramai org hentam, lagi ramai org akan mengundi dia, cam ada sorang tadi cakap pasal hukum sains...
dia elok ke tak elok ke is no longer the point here...things are getting very personal, it's not funny anymore..
rasa2nya klubby, lagi ramai org hentam dia lebih ramai pulak org kesian.... he's getting free (and maybe sme people say cheap) publicity, tapi like in showbizz, any publicity is good publicity....
i pun kesian kat aswad sbb bukan salah dia kalau astro gunakan dia sebagai gimik....gimmic to sell AF, an expired product... aswad tu, aswad ni, aswad dpt peluang beribu2 kali, bukan salah dia sikit pun, he might not be a good singer/whatever, tapi kalau dah astro nak dia jadik mascott AF, what can he do..?
Music is beautiful, no matter what language it is in. It transcends the boundaries of race, religion, and even that of a geographical nature. Here's my list of songs from Indonesian pop and rock acts that are on my playlist, some of which are my all time favorites. Some old, some new and some just bloody timeless. Enjoy the sounds and listen beyond the music and the words - and instead tune into the emotions of each tune. No matter what genre they may be.
Say NO! to the hateful and malicious nature of some who choose to close our local music market for fear of competition simply because they are unable to compete, and unwilling to even try.
Support Malaysian music. Don't kill it by being ignorant. Music is ever evolving, and our local sound is slowing being rendered irrelevant. This is my protest against those who choose to be anti-Indonesian music, simply because SOME of our local talents and recording outfits are too lazy to innovate and create. This is the sound of Indonesia today. Are we up for the challenge to evolve and produce better music in healthy competition?
WHAT I'M ON
KLUBBKIDD
So...just what do you want to know about me?
I'm simple, and yet complicated.
It's as simple as that...but then again, perhaps not.
My life is kinda like my job, an oxymoron. Try this one out for size...'ethical journalist'. See, told you so.
Anyway, here's a brief (yeah right!) intro to my life.
I'm a proud Malaysian (and I mean literally!), of Chinese descent. I'm Christian (Roman Catholic!).
I'm kinda whacked. I believe in piercings, dyed hair, black nails, silver studs. leather and spiked accessories and oh... tattoos...body art is just that...art. Apart from anything else that will make me worth staring at.
Right now, I have a total of seven piercings (three on lobes - two left one right, left ear cartilage, nose, lower lip and tongue) with three taken out on brow (one ripped) as well as three tattoos with more to come.
Forget the tough exterior, cause I believe in hugging my parents, crying when I feel like it, require tender moments with my significant other, and I appreciate my friends. As Kim from America's Next Top Model said it best. "What's my secret? I may look tough on the outside, but really, I scream like a girl!"
Fictional?
I 32 as of last July 17, and it's past the mid life crisis come early for me as I struggled to deal with the coming of age thing. I am working as a freelance senior entertainment journalist, a job which I have been at ever since I decided to quit college, two subjects short of graduating. I was taking my Diploma In Sound and Audio Engineering. Until recently that is.
Now I do a lot of freelance overall talent consultancy which includes image and communication. I am also in the process of starting my own company klubbkidd Sdn Bhd, which is producing its first TV show from a format that I have created myself. The show will most likely be on air sometime end 2008.
I have donelive sound production for some concerts and shows and a little bit of studio work in hopes of becoming a sound engineer with what I've studies, when I turned back to my first love, writing.
Was doing general news, specialized awhile in politics, did a little features, crime, business and sports and dabbled in related journalism fields before finally settling into my current position, thankfully, entertainment, the perks of which is doing what I've always loved (writing and indulging in music) and also backstage passes to meet my favorite acts. It's eleven years now, and I'm still golding it there.
Looking back - whatever's gone on in my life - it's not too hard to be positive and look ahead, with more pleasant of the memories to make the journey a little easier.
And these very memories which I cherish so, are the reasons behind why I started blogging.
The friendships and variety of relationships I've been through, allow me to highlight the mistakes I've made and how not to repeat them, not to compromise my principles too much for love, and also a balance in sacrificing my ego, and how I must learn to be stronger in the face of adversity.
So I've never figured myself to be a real hoot.I pace on day by day, occasionally skipping, sometimes with just a little jaunty bounce. More often than not, I go smack! either on my rear end (which needs more meat) or flat on my face.Life treats me well, I suppose, so I shouldn't gripe. I am stll my own hero - that's positivity through self-affirmation for you.
