Sawatdee Krup!!!
Yes, aku sekarang berada kat Bangkok.
And keletihan tahap gaban...tapi sebab online nak cari kengkawan yang kalau sempat nak jumpa, aku singgah sat update ler blog.
Yerlah...rajin kan diri katanya walaupun berada jauh.
Aku letih gaban because I didn't sleep a wink the whole night semalam berjaga, takut terlepas waktu jer nak bertolak. I had to be at the airport by 6.30am to catch my 8.25am flight, so apa lagi, sahur je, gerak terus ke office tinggalkan keta.
Took the bus (biasa naik cab, tapi nak slum it a bit) ke Sentral, and sampai kat KLIA pun da 6.50am.
Takderler lambat sangat....cukup nak check in dan jalan slow slow ke gate.
Yang aku pelik...flight Thai Airways ni, cam penuh je ngan pekerja asing.
That and pelancong Taiwan yang cakap kuat nak mampos dan perangaii memang stereotype Cina bukit (matilah...I can be racist in that sense because I am Chinese).
Talking loudly, repeatedly kicking into my seat, eyeballing the stewardesses (even the ugly ones)....the list of offences takde ending nya.
Tapi aku dok ngan member aku si Zoe dok carut je. Dia yang pendiam baik tak reti kutuk orang pon, tension je ngan gelagat these Taiwanese (kita syak dari loghat meka) yang memang acted as if they were from the hills of Kwangtung or whatever.
Matilah aku dok Port Klang selama ni pun....takyah cakap la...lebih sophisticated. Matilah Pulau Ketam dan Jinjang pun lebih advanced.
The best thing was that for the whole hour and a half, kita terpaksa nak layan warga bukit ni semua yang berpusu pusu ke toilet, break down the door!
Literally!
Throughout that period, matilah sorang pun tak reti nak bukak toilet door kapalterbang. Nak kata kali pertama, takkan semua tak reti and memang semua first timer???
Sampai ada sorang nih, dia tolak pintu lebih lebih sampai nak roboh...walaupun hakikatnya the door was locked sebab ada orang sibuk melabur kat dalam.
Yang best nya...yang da dua tiga kali malu wat benda sama (how can you still not know how to open the door to the loo pas dua kali gi toilet), leh gelak kawan kawan yang pastuh sama sama fail!
Nak turun kapalterbang pun...auyo...cam haper je. Sampai sanggup tolak-tolak. Aku dok tepi rasa nak hayun je beg Ralph Lauren aku (merasalah bukan Louis Vuitton)
Anyway, bila stepped out of the plane into the airport, baru perasan rupanya lapangan terbang baru! Kalau tak silap aku Suvarnabhumi International Airport namanya. Aku agak je sebab tak kuasa....
Tahan kecing sebab malas nak gi bilik air pas ramainya watak watak gila gi toilet kat plane, aku pun cari ler Gents.
Last last masuk bilik air, salah masuk ke Ladies punya.
Shit! Pastuh found the gents...merasalah lah ada TIGA je cubicle. Urnial pun tiga je. Orang beratur sampai kuar toilet manjang! Hampeh tol!
Tapi lain lain airport ni grand gak ler.
I like some of the finer detailing that makes it known that it's Thai!
The national identity of the airport is stamped all over the place.
Tapi yang paling best dari segi niyang aku nak puji, sampai pintu kaca tuh, frosting dia tengok ler sendiri. Memang kelas!
And on every glass door ok camtuh. Rasa cam grandiose sangat.
And banyak lagik aku tengok touches dia yang commendable, walaupun banyak design dia aku tengok cam inspired by KLIA saja.
Dari bahagian luar kaca versi KLIA tak grand sangat...layout dia...skema dia...very the KLIA.
| seriously wonder if KLIA da menjadi benchmark untuk semua negara kala nak bina  international airport yang ada standard world class, sebab as lembab as Malaysia Airports Berhad is in terms of service at times (matilah most of the time), KLIA is indeed something we can be proud of artchitechurally.
And of course functional gak ler.
Yang airport baru ni...rupanya bukan rupa dan layout je...mak bapak punya jauh dari bandar ala KLIA gak.
Highway dia semua, if you squint masa time driving dari airport nak ke the city, ko mesti ingat KLIA ngan lebuhraya dan sebagainya.
Siap ada ala ala Low Cost carrier Terminal punya building lagik....though dinch speku ler apa bangunan itu.
One of the things I likes was the stamp of tradition and art all in one throughout the theme of the decor.
Antaranya cam kat area conveyor belt nak amik baggage. Kalau biasanya, airport ni kosong je kan....dia siap ada ala ala art gallery.
A bunch of artwork was displayed throughout the length of the area mana terletak one of the conveyor belts.
And the artwork was mostly admirable...not too avant garde ler.
It was more like something lyang a relfection of the fusion of the nation's proud tradition and modern approach.
Tapi aku pelik satu je...
I really didn't understand this one, try as I did.
Dalam banyak banyak piece tuh...ada satu painting ni...more like a relief, a 3 D punya art tuh, ada patung Buddha kat ujung atas canvas belah kanan, pastu hujung kiri bawah tuh lak ada rake (what do you call that in bahasa ek?)
I really don't geta ny significance at all.
Pelik...tapi malas peningkan.
Tapi yang best sekali tak sangka jejaknya aku kat Bangkok...kat airport je, aku nampak ada tukang jaga dia sana sini.
Berlambak!
Anyway aku ngantuk punya ngantuk, I slept for most of the journey to our hotel, kat Holiday Inn yang dekat je ngan Chitlom punya MRT.
Tak penah dok sini lagik dari lima enam kali mai Bangkok.
Standard gak ler...tapi yang penting...the very the important...aku ada bilik sorang diri!
Besh ni takyah share ngan orang....
Baru nak enjoy bilik, aku double check schedule.
Patutnya interview ngan Rihanna esok tengahari, sebelum free and easy the whole day.
Patutnya hari ni konsert Jay Z dan Rihanna tuh kat BEC Tero je...tapi tengok-tengok meka da reschedule...today is the interview with Rihanna.
Aku tak kisah sangat sebab bila da settle semua hari ni, aku esok lega ler...kosong program seharian leh shopping sakan!
Prathunam....Fashion Mall... MBK...semua sudahpun dirancang.
Tapi tinggal tengok bangun kul berapa je...sebab malam ni lak plan nak ke Silom! lama tak gi....
Kalau sempat, area Patpong wjib nak singgah!
Still, thinking of the interview in an hour je, cukup rush nak letak beg, quickie shower dan tukar baju and then jalan balik nak menuju ke destinasi hotel si Rihanna ni nak wat interview, lemah terus lutut.
Tension sebab tak cukup tidor, ngantuk dan susah nak fokus.
Blur je aku, jalan pun terhoyong hayang.
But bila tengok bilik aku yang ok punya selesa...lega ler hati sikit... little creature comforts can do so much for the mood.
Tapi bilik ni ada one thing pelik. Dia macam ada bucu kaca bilik air ni yang 'tembus' bilik tidur.
This portion of the glass panelling leh nampak dalam bilik air.
Yang kelakarnya, it's covered by blinds ler.
Tapi yang hanj nya, blinds tuh bukan control dari dalam.
TAPI dari luar bilik air.
Aku sampai dok tergelak tengok dia punya thingamajig yang control the vents of the blinds tuh belah dalam bilik tidur and not bilik air.
Jadi kalao ada sesapa ko nak intai, ajak je mandi dalam bilik air of your room.
Member yang dok bilik lain terpaksa kongsi berdua sampai memasng tak berani ke bilik air kecuali member sorang lagik takde dalam bilik sebab phobia terbayang ada yang intai.
Matilah kalao member takde dalam bilik masih ada yang mengintai lagik horror kan!
Matilah menakutkan diri sendiri!
So after da sibuk photography kan bilik nak masukkan dalam blog sebab anticipate later mesti ada masa free.... aku pun bersiap instant!
Kami rancang naik MRT saja sebab nak cepat and avoid the massive traffic congestion.
Tak mengejutkan ler kalao setakat Bangkok punya traffic condition kan.
Tapi dalam kelam kabut nak bergegas ke lokasi interview lak, member aku si Zoe ada problem. Masa dia check in tuh, ada pihak hotel check passport dia, tak di cop lak oleh Immigration Thailand.
Merasalah dia seolah masuk negara secara haram.
Call sana call sini ler jawabnya nak settlekan.
Aku cakap...dok je kat Siam...wat bisnes *ehem* *ehem* terus....matilah nak kata overstay pun tidak, enter secara haram pun, technically tidak!
We took the MRT and I kept myself busy tengok semua iklan iklan yang terpampang kiri kanan MRT station.
Bersih nya MRT station meka. Yang penting, aku cam tak campak pon orang isap rokok sini. Nak light up pulak aku segan!!!
Mmm...takper la...tak batal ler posa aku (oops...did I forget that double orange juice dalam kapalterbang?)

Dia kat tengah tengah tempat orang jalan kat stesen MRT tuh, dia letak this car, yang da compact berlipat da. Keji tau nakutkan orang accident camtuh tuk beli kan insurance dia!
Eh...panjangnya entry aku. Plan nak pendek pendek nak letak beberapa pics jer...dah meleret lak jadiknya.
Anyway....ni jer pics aku sebenarnya nak share kan (sebenarnya nak tayang!)
Ladies and gentleman.... I present to you.... Rihanna!!!
Trust me guys, dia ni memang cantik jumpa in person. Dapat ler aku lepak ngan dia interview dalam lebih 20 minit, one on one.
Pastuh bila da settle semua interviews dia for the day, dapat ler lepak ngand ia lagik kejap. Dia nih tinggi lampai! Heels dia pakai takder ler tinggi sangat, but dia da dekat my height... and I'm 178cm!
So korang bayangkan ler. Dia ni kalao dalam gambar tak photogenic sangat...but aku memang awestruck. Tak silap aku dia 18 years old nak masuk 19 je... tapi mak aih.... dia punya self confidence AMAZING!
Kenapa la tak ramai lagi artis kita camni.
Anyway, sapa tatau Rihanna ni sapa, carik lagu Pon De Replay ataupun S.O.S. (remake Soft Cell punya Tainted Love).
Ok ler guys...aku nak mandi. Sat agi nak gi BEC Tero for the show. Matilah back to back, one and a half hours of Rihanna, followed by Jaz Z punya full concert.
Be posting as soon as possible (esok kot pas shopping)
Toodles!

This is my pre-leaving for Bangkok entry.
Yeap...by the time most of you read this, I would most probably be in the land of plenty (of sex).
Er...did I just insult a whole nation which just went through military rule. Ampun!!!!
Well, I said aku akan gi tengok Jay Z and Rihanna live in concert kan... so today is the day I leave our haze ridden country....and go to haze ridden Bangkok.
Matilah gi jauh jauh hirup udara yang sama gak azabnya.
Anyway aku nak gak catch up entry entry yang tertangguh akibat blogdrive yang bodoh, bangang, cam sial...dan memang p*****k!
Aku nak sompah dalam bahasa kebangsaan sebab tak paham ler omputeh tuh semua bila singgah sini.
Sebab walaupun blogdrive tengah upgrade dan sebagainya sistem meka, janji seminggu nak problem, tapi dah berminggu minggu.
Tu yang ada kali korang singgah sini, tuh ada...ni takde...ni ada...tuh takde.
Kekadang aku da publish entry pun tak nampak sendiri.
Tunggu empat hari baru muncul. Cam p****t!!! Pastuh kat help forum, users yang bising lak kena hamun sebab konon tak sabar. Mak aih...dok senang bayar tuk subscribe nak carut kita lak. Blogdrive memang bangang...
Anyway, aku dok dua minggu lagi tengok ada masalah ke tak. Kalau berterusan, I really need to move to another provider. I mean...the best thing is in the help forum, some smart asses can bitch about people who complain.
Eh gi mampos ler ko...the problem is, when I pay for a service, I expect the service. Is that too much to ask? Bukan aku sorang je blogger yang kena...sesapa yang complain siap kena marah. Mati laaa kooo katanya.
Wat panas je pikirkan.
So anyway...mai teruskan posting bayar utang!
Ingat tak that day I said I was going to collect my passport pas renewed?
Kan aku ada bising pasal tuh ni...pasal tu kata complaints punya borang takde kat customer corner. Jangan tatau...two days after that, aku usha Immigration sebab nak amik passport aku...hah! Dah bersih da kotak tuh. Sampah...plastik dalam tuh da takde, and dah siap stack kan complaints form bebanyak!
Matila...aku nak amik pic, abang security  yang aku carut tuh jeling aku semacam. Nak gelak lak aku terbayang dia baca blog aku (perasan tol).
Yang aku leh amik pic kotak aduan dia....hah...dah ada pun orang complain.
Amik ko!
Seterusnya, nak kongsi dua pic yang aku amik at different times. Satu masa ari tuh aku on the way nak buka posa sangkut kat jam kat Jalan Sungai Besi.
Lalu hotel ni...matilah katanya nama tempat tuh Stay Inn! Sesuai sangat dalam time jerebu ni. But judging from the exterior oif the place, aku rasa aku malu lak nak dok dalam tempat camtuh. Who stays there lah?
Banyak lagik hotel yang lebih elok dan murah....and int he right location at that too.
Gambar kedua masa aku driving ke kerja siang tadi.
Dalam nak kuar bandar Klang, ada lori binatang sial ni, cilok aku sampai nak terlanggar. Ok so maybe it was my fault sebab leh berbalas SMS tak perasan lori hantu nih bak laju laju lak sampai cam F1 katanya.
Tapi yang aku tak tahan tuh, dah ler bak laju pick up kicik tuh, siap barang penuh, tak di ikat ke haper...tuh ada pekerja dia precariously perched on the edge of the vehicle camtuh je.
Matilah ko....literally...kalau ko emergency break. Matilah social ill baru katanya nak gantikan rempit. Kali ni versi dok belakang lori tanpa support apa apa.

So after that circus act...random pics entery berterusan. Kali ni lak masa aku kat RTM hari tu... ala...time live Fenomena Seni. Aku no komen pasal that show....but according pada menteri kata tak nak benda benda trashy sensationalism. Talk about irony. Tapi lepak pun sebab time tuh, mentor aku ada on the show, si Alam. Tengok dia sambil gelak ler....dia pon molot laser tapi educated ler.
Studio sebelah lak, si Bob dan Faizal ada wat rakaman Raya, sementara kat auditorium Perdana, Zahid lak ada ngan Mawi tak silap aku.
Lepak seronok gak sebab banyak cita nak catch up. Along Maestro ada... dan aku ditemani si Juan.
Tapi yang besh nya....dalam time lepak lepak, aku kena tarik oleh Faizal masuk studio 1, aku perasan benda ni kat dinding, which answered misteri kenapa RTM cam boring semacam je.
Check this notice out yang di tampal diluar SETIAP studio!
Aku paham ler the rationale behind it tapi seriously kan, corporatised or not, meka so the very the government run sampai they're not allowed to even have the slighest ounce of fun.
Matila katanya, notice ni mengatakan setiap news presenter ataupun pengacara rancangan terbitan RTM, kena BERAMBUT HITAM!
Puas gak sebab aku muncul kat RTM/Astro tuk Mawi...Ina time tuh rambut aku ada blonde dan merah...lum agik moka tindik penoh.
Matilah pasni kena ban terus muka aku.

Merasalah ada proof katanya....amik pic terus. Ada yang confuse je kenapa aku amik pic benda yang tempek kat notice board. Now they know....
Anyway, this whole week aku malas nak gi buka posa memana sangat...function banyak lak tak attend.
Hari ni ingat nak melepak je, tapi sampai opis je, si Mawi da dok hias kat sana ngan Freddie, Aman...Nassier pun ada sekali ngan Baha.
Rupanya Mawi wat kunjungan hormat ke Balai Berita.
Semua wartawan hiburan dia lawat, dari Nw Straits Times, Berita Harian, Harian Metro dan The Malay Mail.
Sejuk ati sikit tengok usaha dak botak ni...kerana meka ni sesat nak go through the maze, aku jadik tour guide ler jap.
Malas snappy pics banyak, so this will do lah ek.
Tapi one thing for sure, aku terharu sebab Mawi siap bagi card dan kuih Raya kat aku....merasalah la ko botak gelak moka aku yang terkejut.
Tapi best gak tengok kad Raya dia...antara kengkawan aku dapat, sekali aku, tengok ada empat design berlainan. Tatau lak kalau ada lebih...produced by Mawi World.
Mmmm...teringat Raya pertama time Mawi kuar, anggota masa tuh gigih menjual penuh semangat kat Alamanda Putrajaya. Some things will be memories treasured by some friends.
Moving on after that Hallmark moment....
Petang tadi, Ning, Nikkidan Yanie ada host kan buka puasa kat Linda Onn punya My Mom's Chicken Rice.
Thanks to Linda and family ler for playing host for that simple and very the sederhana event yang bersesuaian ngan tema.
Ramai kengkawan yang hadir. Syazwan and Fendi perlu ke aku sebut korang? Rudy, Juan, abang Badrul, Diddy, Schoni.
Banyak aku nak update pasai benda tuh, tapi memandangkan ramai lagik gigih updatekan blog ngan info event tuh, korang browse je la official photographer, official correspondent, official publicist punya blogs.
All I can larat to share is this...
The most popular drink malam semalam!!!
Aku sendiri tak kuasa nak try...it's some weird juice, tapi yang pentingnya asam boi tiga biji floating floating tuh apa hal.
Amik ko....pic aku snap ni Nikki punya yang dia siap puji puji kata best gila.
Aku ingatd ia sorang je minom air pelik nih...rupanya si Ning minom sampai tiga serving tuh!
Three times three asam boi each, sembilan biji! Ting tong jadiknya mabuk asam boi!
Kalau korang nak try, I don't really know what it's called, tapi kat Linda Onn's My Mom Chicken Rice tuh ko mintak je air yang asam boi tiga bijik yang diminati Ning Baizura tuh.
Merasa pasnih si Vernon dok demand royalty endorsement artis dia sat agik dari Linda.
Aku malas sangat nak lama-lama sebab ni pun dah lebih sejam nak update. Nanti aku rajin kan diri kat Bangkok updatekan blog ok.
Yang penting pics Rihana dan Ronan Keating live in person ok.
Kalau ada rezeki dapat Jay Z interview last minute, aku usahakan gak.
Wish me a safe trip...and take care guys.

We do not see things as they are; we see them as we are.

And that's the sad truth at times.
We all like to think ofourselves as immune, untouchable... and God forbid, invincible to the depraved blindness of ignorance.
The truth?
At times... some of us forsake that preferred sight for the sake of being pragmatic.
The past few weeks I've been grappling with a lot of personal demons that I myself have encountered numerous times throughout my life, and at most, only won minor battles.
Is it the obsessive compulsive order of my nature which dictates me and my life?
When things hurt, and I shriek in immediate response... is it my fault?
I don't intend to hurt people, but why am I faced with such insensitivity from people around me.
I'm told so many times, that the world doesn't always work in my favour, but sometimes other parties forget, I AM part of the revolving world too.... and it doesn't always work in their favour as well and thus, it is in most cases, a problem of perception.
That aside however, while life is not viewed from the monochromatic vision of distinction, some things are, as simple.
We are all literally and unwittingly two-faced.
We are all undeniably so every day of our lives as that is the sole factor in most cases in attracting or alienating friendship prospects and our general social life.
Some may call it pragmatic... but sometimes, small things hurt.
I have never gone out, even as a friend with an ex of a friend for having placed loyalty to my friend first. Not to mention the ex has never brought benefit to me... though even it the answer was in the positive, my answer would still be in the negative.
So why does it offend me, when a friend goes out with a former flame, of whatever nature, for whatever, supposedly casual thing?
It only offends me to think that some people never put themselves into others' shoes.
Some affairs, no matter how hurtful, are so easily and casually dismissed as a small matter and no big deal.
Would you have dared do so in front of me? In my presence?
Is it friendship then to practise, 'what you don't see won't hurt you?', because if it is so, then I'll play within the confines of the general relaxed  rules that seem to govern everyone.

Do unto others, what you wish be done unto you

Going by that, I can imagine returning many favours around me.
But then again, that would be vindictive.. petty... and some say even juvenile.
But oh Lord help me... why does the world justify something is unfair only against my favour.
You don't need to make resolutions only at the beginning of the year... and I've resolved to be more patient with people around me.
Sometimes however, people just don't deserve respect, simply because they hardly have any value for themselves, they treat others with the same contempt and pettiness that they impart upon themselves unwillingly.
Friendship is not a simple thing. But the simple 'it takes two to tango', should remind many that it is not one's person's duty for the safekeeping, nurturing and maintainence of a friendship.
Pragmatic is not a word I believe in.
Just like when people say God willing...or God's will be done, uttered as a quick non-commital, dimissal effort to wave off uninteresting invites, pragmatic for me has become a cowardly word that is used once too often and abused.
This entry is not to hurt anyone - as several people, yes, not just you (you know who you are), pop into my mind that has made me feel the need to vent.
I just plead everyone in my life to understand, they're not the only ones going through a tough period in their lives with a smile on their face.
Alll of us soldier on everyday.
And it only makes sense if RESPECT is the main ingredient of a friendship.
I'm 30 and I'm tired. I really don't know how much crap I can take in my life.
The past year has been one of the most streneous... and I don't know if I can pull this all the way.
I am sick of the endless dramas....I seem to be surrounded by drama queens.
There's one in all of us, but the question is, what price does it come at.
I'm done with my late night ranting...normal  entry tomorrow.
Good night.

PS
Sorry blogdrive gila kebelakangan ini...no idea lah pasal bab meka tuka server semua. Tu yang tunggu meka ok dulu baru aku rajin balik.

You guys have heard me go on about my obsession for retro cartoons kan? (matilah OCD!)
Anyway, aku lupa nak cakap... if you remember... Transformers...well, they're making a live action movie, and it's due out next year.
I've been checking it out non-stop on the web. Not a lot of people seem to know for some reason... the hype hasn't been all that great, and a lot of my friends sendiri tatau masa aku ask whether they're looking forward to it.
Me? I am so stoked about it, tapi aku kecewa sikit, like a lot of fans sebab I have seen some of the production stills and I think most of the designs are crappy if you were a fan of the cartoon 20 years ago.
Kalau baru minat lain ler... suka kot.
Tapi aku nak that sense of originality. Already fans everywhere have echoed that Michael Bay and his team are hardly fans, the way they've treated the Transformers theme with such disrespect.
Apparently Volkswagon tanak bagi permission nak pakai design meka, so Bumblebee daripada VW... skang akan transform jadik... Camaro! Aiyak! Tak kena tol... that's not even the character of Bumblebee.
I mean it doesn't look too bad... tapi despite whatever amount of compensation they have to make for the translation, they should try and remain true to the original.
Entahlah... I think it looks decent, but it's just not the same...
Don't they understand anything?
Optimus Prime is now a snout nosed rig, rather than that traditional form we've come to know him, and some fans have gone as far as to call him a gay version that has had his ride pimped.
Lum agik Megatron yang tak ikut langsung design generation one.
Aduh... I waited years for the live action movie to come about... and this is how it's going to look ker?
Here are some pics on the web yang basically shows what the new live action Transformers is going to look like.

Sites to check out :
Tranformers The Movie Official Site (the official site)
Transformers Live! (the official blog with everything you need to keep up to speed on the production)
Flickr Transformers Movie Pool (a LOT of amazing pictures from the set and the designs)
Tranformers Hype! (a good resource for updates)

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?
Plis 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.

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.
Sama-samalah mendoakan agar rohnya tergolong bersama-sama orang-orang yang beriman. Al-Fatihah.

Pagi tadi tak boleh bangun.
I couldn't get up, not because I was tired, or lazy... or just wanted a few extra minutes of sleep. I literally takleh bangun sebab belakang aku sakit gila. It had been hurting for the good part of the night, and it just got horrible in the early hours of the morning.
To get up. I had to roll on my side,prop myself up and slowly bangun camtuh.
Went to the doctor, got lots of stuff like plasters and ointment as well as tonnes more medication.
Pastuh check on another swelling I had masa two months ago jumpa doktor (cool doctor - Dr Said Ainal).
Not to dramatize the situation, tapi according to him, while it wasn't exactly a possiblity in his books, there was an itsy bitsy teeny weenie yellow polka dot bikini of a chance yang the swelling's cancerous.
So esok aku kena gi specialist at the Pantai Medical Centre nak check up on it.
Not worried... que sera sera...
The positive part about it?
I got today and tomorrow off! Well not today sebab I spent most of today in the waiting room sebab half the office seemed to be down with something or other.
Also had to send in my column, so bummer ler.
Esok lak aku Melodi Raya punya shoot, so oetang esok nak off pun, cadang nak turun sana sebab nak pasang telinga carik cita sikit...nama pun keja. This is the best and the worst part of the job... tak kenal masa tugasan...
Got a little bit of good news today? Remember I told you guys aku nak gi Singapore for the Jay-Z concert which will be opened by Rihanna?
The tarikh kat SIngapore cancelled apparently....so I'm going about five days earlier to BANGKOK! (tengok jadual dalam entry sebelum nih)
Yeah!
Bummer of it all? Skang sebab kecoh sana kena wat visa etc. Binatang tol! Arghh!!!
Speaking of things Thai... (sebenarnya takde kena mengena...saja nak tie in tuk this part of the entry)
On Friday night (kira masuk Saturday morning), me and a bunch of friends gi this Kelantanese-Tjai restaurant kat Section 7, Shah Alam nak bersahur. Nama kedai tuh Vicchuda. Memang kira kita ni regular ler kat sana.
Pekerja dia kat sana semua memang fluent ler berbahasa kat sana... makanan pun ok... authentic. Walaupun a little more pricey than the usual kedai makan.
Anyways, mula-mula aku tanak makan... then thought, saja nak makan udang. So to avoid a mistake (hari tuh aku order udang goreng tepung, tepung dia lebih-lebih lak) aku order ler udang goreng biasa to makan with nasi as well as sup yang di order oleh orang gila.
Sambil browsing through the menu, aku dan Fiebie had a competition to spot the many errors in the menu. Here are some of them.

Matilah gelak punya gelak...mesti sampai ad akes pekerja dia lodah dalam makanan kita dalam kitchen sebab sentap tengok kita sedap punya perli dia punya menu.
Tu lah akibatnya kalao dah pagi pagi buta, semua stay up nak sahur dah tak betul da pala.... lawak bodoh pun cukup nak menghiburkan diri.
La di da... makanan kita satu satu sampai.
Aku punya sampai aku dah garu pala. Tul ker aku order ni. I thought I ordered udang goreng biasa....  bukan BAWANG GORENG!
Cause that's all that I got. Prawns dia ada ler celah celah.. tapi daripada udang tuh starring role, ala ala menjadi supporting role je. Matilah cameo!!!
Sentap tol!  Sampai masa aku nayar, orang tuh tanya makan apa... aku jawab, udang goreng biasa terlampau banyak bawang. I think all in all, the dish yang patutnya tuk tiga orang makan, pakai at least lima ke enam ketul bawang!
Weird!
Tengok lah belah kanan... tuh sup yang di order oleh Fiebie. I don't know what soup he ordered... but I'm betting it wasn't onion soup despite the abundace of bawang all over the place. Harga bawang jatuh mendadak ke... kedai ni mewah bawang sangat nak clear stock?
Oh... by the way, speaking of Friday, I think it;s time to get back to the chronological order of events.
Friday morning I was buzzing cause I got to speak to someone on the phone and clear up something that happened the night before. Di amintak maap and all, so that was a cool to the last day of the week.
Then kuar bilik je, my dad said a parcel had arrived for me. True to the loving and caring nature of Pos Malaysia's caring personnel, my fragile parcel, kena humban over the gate. Yeap... just like that.
Apparently skang kalao orang hantar parcel. ko takyah sign ker haper. They just throw it in your house, over the gate....
Nama pun Pos Malaysia kan?
Still.... that didn't dent my excitement as I knew the parcel could only contain one thing.
My last purchase from ebay yang aku da nearly four months tunggu ni!
Yes, yes... remember my thing for M.A.S.K. toys? That Eighties cartoon thing?
After getting three other vehicles on ebay (read my other postings), which is the Thunderhawk, Raven and Manta, I can now proudly boast of having an Outlaw!
It's the oil rig that converts into a mobile headquarters. Cool!
Pada sapa yang tak collect retro toys sorry ler... pada sapa yang minat, here are some pics of Outlaw.
The figures, masks and all small parts are intact. Stickers and chrome in perfect condition!
Amazing!
For a toy yang da nearly 18 or 19 years old, it's still like brand new.
Aku dapat jer, aku rip the packaging! I was so excited, tak sabar-sabar nak tengok this toy yang aku penah own masa aku sekolah rendah.
I remember I had it when I was about 12, masa tuh Darjah Enam.
Since then, tak tahu ler mana pergi nya collection aku yang da bersepah rosak dibuang ataupun disedekahkan pada cousin aku semua yang dulu memang suka nak datang rumah aku to find out what else they could bring home!
And I'm not joking about that.
Sebab dulu kalau cousin aku (not all ler... ada ler) yang tau jer aku ada mainan baru, mai rumah, pretend nak play play... then pastu nak bak balik selamba. Kalau aku protest, masa tuh aku dianggap selfish!
Aiyak... camna tuh? Setan punya...
Anyway, I remember it was priced at RM89.90 in 1988 and 18 years later, I got it off ebay slightly cheaper! And that's with postage and handling from London.
Amik ko!!!
Happy gila sih!

   

    

   

   

Last last - amik ko... ada kelas tarian Drama lak.
Hah.. step nampak jer senang, tapi ada yang tangan sampai terbelit belit ok nak cuba ikut. Baru korang tau bukan senang choreography meka walaupun nampak kacang!
Pecah perut aku tengok semua bebudak nak try (kak Za ngan Wanie tak berani lak... tapi nampak tangan kaki gatal nak join tuh) time guru tari dua orang ni beriya tunjuk meka routine meka hempas pulas nak perfectkan for the show.
Eh... dah kul berapa ni.
Fast forward, Sunday was slower, but Juan lak sahut tugas as chef and whipped up laksa Pahang. Not bad ler... quite good I thought. Tapi aku ni memang tak suka laksa, so hardly would be able to tell. Matilah aku...
Okler guys... walaupun aku berbuka ngan berasap tadi, aku lum sempat makan agik ni. So ciao dulu ok.

Hah! And guess who's going to be there. It's almost confirmed that me, myself and I will be in Singapore to watch Jay-Z.. LIVE!!!
Plus get this, who else is there.
RIHANNA!!! (pada yang sapa tatau tuh, ala lagu hit dia tuh Pon Your Replay dan remake of Tainted Love yang bertajuk S.O.S) tuh! Yeap, Rihanna is apparently going to open for Jay-Z on the Singapore leg of the tour.
I'm hoping Beyonce will be there too, but hey, Rihanna there is going to be enough for me.
At the moment, yang nak confirm, samaada aku dapat interview meka ke tidak.
Tak silap aku, tarikh tuh da first day Raya, so ok gak...there won't be much rush for travelling and all.
Aku tak minat sangat Jay-Z...but ok jer lah kalao dapat interview dia, tapi kalau dapat nak one on one ngan Rihanna, WOOOOHOOOO!!!
Moving on, hari tuh aku ada dapat a 3gp video on my phone daripada seorang kawan. Tanak ler sebut sapa orang tuh, sebab nanti dia marah. Kena tunggu dapat izin, walaupun nak kreditkan.
Anyway, video ni memang circulating skang ler. Dan ada member wartawan lain yang curious gak mintak video ni sebab kita banyak wat liputan selama ni, dan wat memacam andaian based on our interviews and comments orang je.
Anyway, for all of you guys  yang curious, I'm of course talking about kes Lisdawati dan Rita Rudaini.
Remember past posting aku the day before the incident was reported in the papers? Ni link dia to the previous entry of mine - CLICK HERE.
Aku terbeliak bijik mata aku. Perghh!!!
The stories and eyewitness accounts don't cut it ler.
This is one heck of a b***h fight! Memang power punya bukan je tarik rambut segala! Apapun, I want RIta Rudaini on my team!!! That girl can smack the bejeebers out of you.
This is definitely the action sequence of the year... hope meka masukkan scene ni dalam the production punya final cut sebab now, that's a real fight sequence. Bukan cam all the lembik stuff you see in the local productions! A gem for sure!
Kalau korang nak tengok file tuh, it's been uploaded on youtube, and I've linked it kat bawah ni.
Aku ada 3gp file dia (tima kasih, dik oi!) but I guess sapa yang nak tuh, kalau jumpa aku mintak jer lah. Sebab aku malas nak offer for upload upload ni.
Kalau korang nak tengok clip kat bawah ni, pastikan you have a decent Internet connection, kalau tak semput ler sikit aksi dia.
On dial-up usually sucks ler, tapi you can try your luck. By the way kalao gambar tak gerak ker, or anything else, there could be a host of problems, like your browser tak flash enabled etc...pepandai carik jalan sendiri ler ek.

That's all for today's posting. Aku nak gi berbuka sat agik ni. Walaupun takde hala tuju, I'll find somewhere decent nak berbuka. Baru masuk empat hari aku posa. Kantoi dua hari so far. Selamat berbuka to everyone...dan selamat melantak pada meka yang tompang berbuka walaupon tak posa.

PS. Jangan lupa the crystal salt lamps tuk RM100. Read previous entry kalau tatau what I'm talking about.

Two days tak posting entry baru. So much for azam nak posting everyday for this week. Damn... sibuk... (alasan biasa)...malas (alasan lagik terbiasa), sekali campur ngan takde sangat benda nak posting, tu yang slow sikit sehari dua.
But wait a minute! Nak kata takde benda nak posting, tipulak kan?
Ada sebenarnya... so I guess we have to revert to the other two excuses ler.
Let me see... apa aku buat ek?
Well, Wednesday takder ler apa sangat aku buat. Aku cuma last minute gi Maestro sat nak wat benda sikit. Ada ler... patutnya singgah sat jer pastuh berbuka, tapi sebab ada yang sampai awal (perli tuh), aku pun da stuck on the PC, terus bukalah kat mamak kat bawah jer alamatnya.
Tengah makan tuh, one of the things I hate most when at a mamak!
Which is?
Idiots talking about football cam ler meka tahu sangat!
"I tell you aa macha... he cannot play lah...my grandmother can run circles around him!"
"No lah, I tell you it's all psychological lah. The English they have their whole careers to have their best season! Foreign signings have only a shelf life of three seasons!"
What the... opah korang ler.
Aku nak makan pon korang cakap cam nak beli Manchester United lak.
Poser gila!
Dahler kuat nak mampos cam pakai PA sekolah time Hari Sukan!
Yang besh nyer, yang cakap semua examplary posers, pakai baju Manchester United nih (walaupun jersi ciplak!)
Aku jeling atas bawah, tengok-tengok, semakin kuat lak cakap.
Sorang tuh, yang paling banyak mulot dan walaupon badan besau, sora kicik ala Minnie Mouse) pakai baju lengan pendek... uwaaa. macho konon.
Tattoo siot belah kanan lengan dia.
It would have been OK I guess, kalau a) kerak kat leher tuh tak tebal gila! b) tattoo bukan yang burok dan tak lengkap stok buat sendiri (aku punya lagik cantik tapi tak tayang pon!) and c)dia pakai terompah!
As in clogs... terompah kan?
Takde selipar jepun ker haper ke?
Sedih!
Cam Ah So mana baru balik pasar lak!
Take a close look at the pic.
Aku so annoyed, I had to snap a pic of the idiot, making it therapeutic to run scenes of homicide without any actual harm inflicted as I got all pissed off.
Jangan tatau, mamat pastuh feeling macho tengah pose, leh kind of jiggle his cellulite thighs sambil terimpah dia "kluk* *kluk* *kluk* *kluk* *kluk*... sodih!
So contributing more to the decibel level, aku punya blood shoot upstairs.
Yes, it seems trivial for some, but things irritate me... small things, like ugly freaks (I'm a cute freak - matilah carut diri sendiri!) making a din in a public place while trying to grab attention by being a footie poser is one of it.
Some people just exist to be irritating.
I know some assholes like that.
Those are the type that... yes, you guess it, let's all say it together now, "have no communication skills or social life, and wak off in front of the PC every night in front of their webcam while making everyone believe they're saving the whales or something with their blog".
Ooops.... didn't mean anyone specific.
I guess generally we all know DORKS like that.
Anyway the bunch of idiots buggered off shortly after we (we were joined by abang Eidil Maestro) wanted to make a move.
Thankfully... because apart from the noise and visual pollution, we caught a whiff of a rather unpleasant odour emanating from their direction.
Aiyak... all that AND BO?
You've got to be kidding??!!!
Some people just have it real bad... and they don't even know it!
Now that just proves my motto for idiots is so true.
Ignorance is bliss.
What they don't know won't hurt them.
They just revel in their pathetic conditions without realising what an irritance they are to the rest of the world.
Kind of like cockroaches I suppose...and mama Rossa (kalau tatau bab cita nih ko kena gi Fiebie punya blog. Tuh lagik satu binatang bertopeng manusia)
This entry so far sounds hateful right?
To some extent it is... because these are things we can never change around us, so I write about it because it's MY thoughts, in MY blog, telling things that cheese ME off.
Yes yes.. now you get the picture.
it's all about ME, MYSELF and I!
Self indulgent? Er... you missed the point, right, because isn't THAT the point?
Anyway, called around by Fuse Studio kat Petaling Jaya.
Ada apa?
Well... dulu Nikki dan Zahid wat lagu Caramu kita rahsiakan kan?
Well, sekarang benda ni lak, takleh rahsia lain, walaupun ada yang keji kata aku pecah lobang...padahal dia forgetful!
Of course, I'm talking about another collaboration of Artistes United dengan Maestro punya artiste through f-tersix Productions, iaitu projek duet Yanie dan Diddy.
Meriah kekecohan dalam studio.
Actually bukan kali pertama pun...meka masuk studio bersama. Just malam tuh ada photography sikit tuk majalah dalam studio, pose pose cam wat recording.
Bersama ngan producer, Audi Mok (yang responsible for Caramu), meka pon sibuk ler tuh nih tuk the recording.
Tengok pic meka ler... kegilaan dalam studio!
Meriah meka nih nampak manja ngan Audi.
Sambil meka gila-gila tuh, ada ler two evil witches watching from the side, ready for the interruption of the expected killjoy.. sapa agik kalau bukan para manager budak dua orang tuh, iaitu, yang pushy dan gatal serta yang pushy dan garang. Matilah aku kena carut ngan dua orang pasni!
We hung out a bit then Diddy dapat call dari Haziq. Dah janji kita semua nak sahur sekali, tapi sebab dia tak call, so aku anggap dia lum settle ler urusan dia sebab kata nak beli baju Melayu segalanya kan... in the end we picked Haziq up and headed back to the studio.
Lepas settle semua, kita gi ler sahur kat Lotus dekat PJ Hilton. Mak aih... letih siot. Then it started raining lagik.
Lagik rasa nak KO je sebab da tak larat with the cold and all. Mata yang berat sampai rumah je terang.
Paksa jugak diri tidor... which reminds me, I really have to go and pick up some Xanax from my doctor again.
Mintak mintak dapat lagik prescription ler.
Anyway, kalau you guys wanna read more about Yanie dan Diddy punya duet bertajuk Saling Terpesona, or whatever it's supposed to be named by an indecisive person....try clicking HERE (ni ada links buang masa so be warned) or HERE (ni lak tak rajin update).
Anyways.... bab semalam, somehow a lesson came in an unusual form.
I hate this... but it seems happening to me over and over again. Somehow, I always bump into the nastiest assholes, who stretch taking advantage to the limit.
Well, maybe not exactly taking advantage... more like taking for granted ler.
You so sure, orang nak kawan, you pull all sort of idiotic stunts which stretches the person's limits of patience.
Well... at some point you just snap. With one person... aku da tak kuasa nak layan sebab kesabaran aku da habih. Jangan rasa aku ni takder perasaan atau feeling nak diplomatic je keja nak wat kawan ngan ko kena put up with all sorts of crap.
Sorry kid... but maybe you'll learn your lesson after this.
With sorang agik, aku panas sebab dia ni feeling have the best of both worlds.
The reality in life is sometimes, YOU HAVE TO CHOOSE!
Whatever... some people just try to be oh so diplomatic kerana memetingkan diri sendiri. So I guess at some point, I will too. Bound to be hell when that happens, but  hey, that's what you call shit hitting the fan.
When you say friendshio is important, yes... words are not enough. Dahler. Malas lecture lagik.
Kang ad abenda jadik, nothing change sit. Malas tegur lagik. When something pisses me off, it just pisses me off.
Arghhh... with all that off my chest, hari ni aku relaxed.. .relatively. The last few days have been lazy for me, and today was no exception.
Suppose must be the weather.
Anyway, hari ni at least takde dilemma nak bukak posa kat mana (hate it when tatau mana nak berbuka... a million places and one, but cannot settle on one)
Tadik gi berbuka posa (plus launching seribu album dan sebagainya - biasalah, budget jadik all in one function) bersama Siti Nurhaliza... oh and artis artis bawah SRC.
Venue : at Armada Hotel.
Or so I thought.
Sebab kalau ikutkan, tengok kat meja, Armada became Armadada!
Matilah hotel owned by sedara pada Queen Amidala ke? Ke inspired by telur dadar! So now you realise that when people say haughtily "even a monkey can do that", they mean really intelligent monkeys.
Because whoever did this thingie on the tables really needed more than a spellchecker kalau tempat keja sendiri pun tak tau. Apa da...
Kalau aku boss sana pecat da. You don't even know who signs your paychecl???
Obviously at the event, everyone dari tamu lain sampai ke media, everyone tunggu one person je muncul
Sapa lagik kalau bukan Datin Siti Nurhaliza (tul ler Siti, ko glowing glowing ler muka ko... very the naik seri - must be the air or the sun or something in Hawaii - keji pasni matilah aku... ampun Datin!)
Datuk Khalid Mohamad Jiwa tak mai, sobuk ngan urusan lain kata Siti.
OK jer. Yang pentingnya, tetap ke mana Siti pergi, biasalah ada yang feeling turned professional photographer walaopon camera masih tahap pakai film. Oops!
Out of curiousity, i wonder how long these people keep their pictures.
I mean, if any of them are bloggers, I suppose I can understand they're posting it to share. Or maybe kalau meka ni forummers, nak sharing is caring pics meka fineler...
But, what else could justify getting into a scrum and engaging in a virtual bloodbath, only to take a picture of the tip of Siti's nose for example, while someone's armpit in the same frame, along with the top of someone else's head.
Hmmm...
Well, whatever rings your bell. Seronok lak tengok meka ni semua rushing rushing nak amik pic sambil jamu buahan. Yer...I say fruits because makanan kuar nak amik je da abih!
Sempat amik beberapa cucuk satay je! Turns out patutnya hotel staff replenish makanan, tapi sebab sibuk nak tengok Siti, dan berbuka posa ngan guest (I actually saw their staff hentam makanan buffet depan depan, and melantak squatting beside the tabloe meka serving), there was no food left almost immediately as soon as Azan.
Aiyak... tau ler nak berbuka as well. But keja service line ni camnih ke perangai. Aduh... tak professional. Whatever...
Layan...
Show yang konon penuh surprise (propah by the emcee) cam drama sekolah rendah). Kuar isap rokok jer ler keja. Lepak ngan teman dari Melodi dan cita sikit. Banyak gosip nak kongsi.
Panasssss panaasss....
Pastu press conference. Kecoh! Mana taknya ada PR BANGANG tak reti buat keja feeling diva... kalahkan artis. Bodoh ker haper... cam tak penah buat event je. Seb baik Siti bukan artis baru, orang terus tak kuasa je ngan PR sotong kertu tuh. Kowser! Kalau artis baru mesti kena blacklist da huru hara camtuh.
Siti tetap rilek jer...20 minutes later (sambil sotong kertu kedut bising in the background) we finished the PC.
Nak tengok pics?
Ni dia...just a few sebab masa tuh bilik tuh dah ler sempit, ada ler orang tak reti pikir yang ramai press akan hadir kot (ke dia ingat orang nak gi makan je tak wat keja - bukan cam SOME people who do that - but only if alcoholic beverages)
Tapi terubat ler tension tengok Siti.
Seriously.
There is this newly married person... if you know what I mean.
The whoopie MUSt be really good!!!!
Wonder where can get some of those. (matilah aku... ampun Datin!)
Here's just one more pic of her at the press conference.
Malas sebenarnya terpikir nak transfer banyak banyak pic nak posting, so hopefully this is enough for you guys.
By the way, kalau peminat SIti, jangan lupa blog PEMINAT NOMBOR SATU SITI NURHALIZA. (yang bloggers lain tuh ngaku lebih lebih nak ampu jer)
Banyak sembang ngan Faizal dari Hot FM. Ada ler benda nak sharing is caring tuh nak cita.
Tapi yang best sekali, jumpa si Amir dari Sofaz.
Honestly, aku tak layan sangat lagu meka, walaupun secara jujur, I think they're ok ok jer cause heard them perform kat RTM sekali.
Anyway, aku penah jumpa Amir ni sekali masa nak jumpa si Bob pas rehearsal show kat Auditorium RTM.
Masa tuh planning nak melantak, tengok tengok si Tomok (tak baik korang gelak) dan si Amir ada sekali. And one more guy tapi tak ingat sapa.
Anyway masa tuh lepak lepak, sempat ler kita gila gila sok sek sembang, baru kenal Amir bebetul sebab dia memang ramah mesra very the kempen kerajaan.
Anyway, awal masa serempak dia mai meja salam, Tapi aku tak tegur sebab tatau dia ingat ke tak.
Dia lak ingat aku tak ingat kat dia, so tak berani tegur. Setakat salam biasa.
Setan!
Last last aku tegur dia kat luar, dia leh kata, "Ingat pun kat kita... ingat da tak ingat"
Pulak... setan tul dak ni.
Balik ke opis abihkan keja... then pastuh jumpa Fiebie kejap.
Hah... jangan tatau. Kami wat business tuk kumpul duit Raya secara kecil kecilan (yerlah orang semua wat duit nak belanja Raya, kita pun nak).
Pernah tak dengar salt crystals?
Well, kalau tatau salt crystal lamps tuh apa, CLICK SINI.
I don't really know how much they cost outside, but according to Vernon (a believer of them), they're sold for about RM200 and above kat tempat cam MidValley dan Ikano. So korang usha ler sendiri tengok berapa harga.
Us? We're offering it for RM100 for the decent medium large ones.
Those are the average sized ones. Kalau nak yang gila besau punya, then kena ikut kg. Please let us know ko nak besau mana. Besau budak enam atau tujuh tahun pun ada.
Tapi harga berbeza ler. Yang standard RM100 ones are tabletop ones. The price includes delivery (within reasonable distance in the Klang Valley) Kalau jauh sangat korang pepandai ler call ek nak include postage.
These salt crystal lamps are imported from Pakistan.
Shop around, I doubt you'll get a cheaper price than what wer're offering.
Enquiries korang leh call aku kat 013-6026006.
Again kalao korang nak tau what these lamps are, CLICK HERE.
Eh dah kul berapa ni, Nak ciao dulu...esok sambung cita.
Korang leh start ordering skang ek. Jangan segan segan. Susah ler nak jadik business business ni... tak pandai.
Ok... night semua. Nak gi sahur dulu... wat kali ketiga...posa tak tentu agik (mintak mintak posa ler...)

Hari ni hari malas. Rasa cam malas sebab letih sangat... aiyak. Cam takde makna je puasa sebab tidor seharian. Well takder seharian lah... but I woke up pun dah dekat kul 2 petang!
Aiyak...tapi takleh salahkan aku sebab semalam gi sahur ngan Mawi, Diddy dan Zila punya event tuh pun sampai kul berapa. Katanya nak start 11pm.
By the time gerak pon dah past 2am da. Tu pun aku kena rush balik ofis sebab nak masukkan story interview.
By the time segalanya terurus dan aku nak gerak balik rumah pon da hampir 5 pagi.
Sahur kat rumah jer ler sebab sorang-sorang member sedap membadak.
Bangun terus bersiap ke office.
Sampai Jalan Pantai lak, sebelum trafik light, just after turn off to the masjid and Universiti Malaya, aku henti some distance from the red light. Yerlah... traffic pun quite heavy da kul 5 da.
Tiba-tiba, tengah feeling layan lagu (tanak cakap apa... tapi kalau aku sebut lagu RAHSIA ada ler yang paham), ada bunyi *DUMMHHHHH* and my car jolted forward a little. Takder ler kuat sangat pon.
Aku tengok cermin belakang, rupanya keta aku sudah kena sondol dari belakang ler nih!
Kuar keta tension, nak hamun, teringat posa, tenangkan diri, then took a look at my bumper. Seb baik takder benda. Baru sempat pastuh tengok orang yang kuar keta Kancil yang langgar aku. Terpegun lak tetiba...
Comel lak! Aduh....tak sempat usha keta dia lak ada apa apa ke tak. Dia lak horror takut aku ngamuk kot, sempat tanya je, "Ok, bang?"
Aku angguk, kata, "No hal... " slowly added "selamat berpuasa" and then masuk balik keta.
Arghh!!!!
Bodohnya...kenapa aku tak mintak nombor dia!!! So pada yang melanggar keta aku petang tadi kat Jalan Pantai, Kancil warna hijau muda, dengan masih tertempek P... hubungi la aku ek. Nak gatal gak! Ko langgar aku kena bayar tau... belanja berbuka ke bersahur ke. Aku belanja ko pun ok sebab ko comel.
Ni mesti kes ngantuk sebab posa, dan terperangkap dalam traffic jam tak larat.
Pada sesapa yang bak keta time puasa ni, berjaga-jaga la ek... jangan tertidur lak.
Sampai office aku habihkan keja.
Petang ni berbuka kat rumah bebudak kat Shah Alam Seksyen 16. Juan yang da lama ilang join sekali. Fiebie, Wanie, Gina dan kak Za da pun berbuka time kami sampai ngan McDonalds. Mana taknya. Kami sampai pun dah kul 8 malam.
Aisey...Juan terpaksa berbuka ngan air in the car. Me? Ngan cancer stick sebatang jer ler.
Sampai rumah semua da sedia membadak da. Selepas telan juadah yang sibuk Fiebie promosi dalam blog dia. Ala...kedai kawan-kawan... ada ler habuan nak promo tuh (mampos aku kena keji pasni)
Malam ni cadang nak sahur awal sikit. Tak larat tidur lewat-lewat lagi.
Anyway for those of you yang nak tengok pic semalam, here's one of Mawi, Diddy and Zila together.
Smart tak... rasa cam mood beraya da meka pakai very in the mood gini.
Lama gak tak jumpa Zila, tapi tak bual panjang ngan dia pon.
Anyway, for fans of Diddy, pray for his cousin ek. Tak silap la...cousin.
Sebab abang Badrul masa tu kata meka pun nak rush ke Johor sebab cousin Diddy on his death bed already. Didn't ask anymore sebab things like that just creep me out.
Hope they had a safe trip sebab lum sempat call abang Badrul or Diddy today.
Mawi lak?
Ok jer...seperti biasa. Tak silap aku bebudak semua kat Astro time tuh ada recording takbir Raya or something like that.
Apa da wat event bercanggah timing. Akibatnya, bukan je bebudak tuh kelam kabut nak running here and there, kita lak yang sampai awal tunggu cam mangkuk hayun.
Sampai je Mawi, sempat ler interview... ada ler benda.
Baca paper hari ni tau ler pasal apa. Malas nak ulas lanjut.
Had a quick chat with him, then followed by an informal press conference with the rest of the media.
Aku da ngantuk, tapi terpaksa rushing office.
Seb baik masa kat Rebung tuh segar mata terserempak ngan someone yang penah hadir dalam hidup aku.
Nak elak mata memandang, lari ke belakang kedai dan berbual, sebab time sembang depan depan, ada je mata yang sibuk nak memandang. Cungkil kang!
Still... dapat gak ubat rindu ngan orang tuh sikit... walaupun things are over, ada ler tempat nak temporary nak manja ler.
Arghhh... ngantuk. After a McChicken, two McEggs and Vanilla Coke with fries, rasa cam tak mampu lak nak bersahur.
Tapi kang tak sahur, esok confirm aku tak lepas ni. Aku ni bukan betul pun.... tak sahur tak posa ler jadiknya.
So anyway guys.. have a good night. Posting again esok. Toodle doo!
Oh by the way, before ending this entry, aku tinggalkan another pic for you guys.
Ni aku amik masa kita tengah lepak-lepak minum... konon feeling nak sahur one more round.
Tengok pic tuh bebaik. Korang jangan otak kuning lak!
Mawi ngantuk tuh... sampai mata da sakit. Tengah sembang pon kuyu jerk mata dia.
Merasalah speku posisi!
Esok takde plan apa apa tapi Thursday ada buka puasa event yang first for the week. Malas sebenarnya, sebab that means after I'm done with the event kena lah balik office nak hasilkan cita lak.
Overtime ada la... tapi musim puasa ni cam tak larat sebenarnya nak keja. Alah...aku ni kalau tak pisa pun rasa malas nak keja.... da kalau datang musim malas kan? Anyway...will be hopefully off next week... sementara bebudak lain masih lum ciao tuk cuti Raya.
Tatau ler camna agik... but I'm suddenly thinking of somewhere further. Not too far... but bila ada duit rasa cam nak jalan jauh sikit.
Eh ok ler guys... night!

   

   

   

By the way.. sempena bulan posa ni, aku nak kongsi cita pasal kawan aku sorang nih yang collagen kan muka.
Tak kisah ler wat sikit-sikit (sapa yang tak buat these days) tapi pengajarannya, jangan overdose. Contohnya, walaupun aku ada member yang muka cantik sebab 15 jarum satu muka (matilah Misha Bidin!)...ada ler sorang ni yang gila abih, sampai 15 jarum hanya tuk dagu dia!
And siap one shot lak, bukan dua tiga staggered punya sesi...gilos! Bukan bola pingpong atau bola golf lagi dagu dia... tapi besau penumbuk (and that's not exagerrating)
Pastuh da besau, tak puas lak, tiba tiba nak tukau stylo kicik kan balik nak tirus lagik, so suntik lagik nak kicikkan, akibatnya camni ler. Abih RM600 tuk buang sikit bagi normal sikit dagu dia. Tapi RM600 hanya nak sebelah jer... leh? So wat sementara, dagu dia sebelah masih humongous katanya!
Dalam perjalanan aku dan beberapa kawan nak ke Teluk Kemang nak *ehem* *ehem* tengok anak bukan (dincn speku) Jumaat lepas, singgah kat one fast food outlet dan serempak dia sebab dia baru tak lama transfer ke sana.
Dari jauh da nampak dagu dia... mak aih. Horrors gak tengok...
Mintak-mintak pasni, dia, dan juga semua adik-adik dan akak-akak dapat dapat moral of the story ek... jangan nak suntik pepandai tanpa tau apa akibatnya. Janganmain redah jer kalau nak buat... tau gak dulu apa akibatnya dan plan betul-betul.
Kalau leh... takyah ler wat terus...but be smart kalau nak wat. Aku pun baru lima jarum. Oops! Tak hipokrit... sorry... da memang betul pun. Walaupun tiga tahun da, tapi tetap maintain ok lagik.
Anyway, tadi da buat separuh entry, pas balik opis after buka posa, continue agik celah nak abihkan keja, dan gi sahur.
Kalau nak tengok, ni ler jer juadah berbuka kami yang very the humble.
Yer... yang penting kenyang ok.
Aku makan apa aa... makan some weird version of nasi ayam, together with murtabak ayam as well as air tebu jer. Nak makan lebih, nak sample memacam rasa tak larat sebab first day tuk aku..angin satu badan rasa nak erm... you know lah.
Hah... tuh... atas tuh, stok berbuka. Kurma tuh... tatau ler brand haper.. but I never liked dates (of the eating variety) so tak makan pon.
Apatah lagik kalau kurma tuh *mai bisik beramai-ramai* Yusof Taayub.
Keji tau... pening aku layan iklan tuh yang ulang lima ribu kali sehari... matilah aku kena marah ngan abang Bad pasni sebab dia yang wat iklan tuh (padan muka Fiebie tatau kena marah sebab keji depan-depan)
Anyway... gotta finish this entry up at this point sebab ada column nak hantar, and one more interview to go to masa sahur.
Yes, sahur kan ngan Mawi, Diddy dan Zila. Ada keja sikit nak wat... kenapa? Biasalah... mana ada Mawi ada jer cita nak korek kan?
Dah nama pun keja.
Mmmm.. tapi skang kul 9 malam... kalau aku abihkan keja dalam setengah jam ni.. sempat aku membadak sejam setengah sebelum event sahur tuh pada 11 malam kang.
Ok ler guys... walaupun a little late sebab da hari ketiga esok... just wanna wish every Muslim celebrating the holy month of Ramadhan, selamat berpuasa!
You guys be good ok... and take care.
Be posting tomorrow... really!

PS - Sapa yang nak aku review One In A Million, sorry ek tapi aku tak tengok siri tuh sebab bosan. Anyway, kalau korang nak gak aku komen... senang je. Suki menang... perlu ke aku cakap agik? Sememangnya tak perlu... seperti kemenangan dia. Kalau dia satu dalam sejuta... aku pun keliru di atas dasar apa? Takkan sebab juling air kot?
Layan America's Next Top Model cycle 5 yang nak abih kat Astro, atau download cycle 7 yang ongoing kat States skang lagik menarik.
