Gawai... Before and After

Pejam celik pejam celik, half of the year has passed by. Time runs so quickly when you are an adult compare to when you are still a kid. It was like only yesterday for everything. I don’t know how many of you ever encounter what I’ve experience. But I confirmed it was not a déjàvu nor a dream or visions. Just cancel this sentence cos ‘m too lazy to elaborate and explain. My body structure has change a lot lately. It is expanding to the front and all the muscles became fat. If the x men are searching for its mutant group, perhaps I want to be counted in and what is my special ability? Hmmm sensing food from a far and then eat the food… does this count to be an x men? Since I’m not a mutant, maybe they will kill me on the spot and eat me semi alive, hhuhhuu…
I think I should start from the Gawai day event. 2 weeks before Gawai, Doli, Andy and mom went to kampong to do some research on my ancestor and to capture some images of the ground zero, our long house location. It was a hard activity due to limited resources and not one of Toda’s family can speak and communicate in Bidayuh and this include me. But wait… I can count in bidayuh and here’s some word that is very familiar to me; tebik, pu an, doj ku pu an, meting, man, mamuh, mboh, tekik, turoi, bagak, juk ke doh? Bayuh, Sebayuh, Skura, diki, any don mu?, kobos, boos, samak, sinduk, babai, dayung, dayak, mejeng, sok and I think Mr Sanuk will complete my list. Enough for that... I feel terrible though!! Need to practice more even If I have to talk to Kate. Talking about Kate, she’s getting bigger, naughtier and prettier. Sho loves to bite peoples with her sharp long toothed. I think I need to buy a bigger cage for those 3 to avoid all three from escaping frequently especially Bruxels who tend to get pregnant again.

1st day of Gawai, we visited kampong as usual But this time it was extra ordinary because my brother Igat brought his fiancé together with us. It was really a difference experience for Mae I guess. As a Philippine it could be her 1st time to celebrate Gawai and to dance poco-poco. Not to have a heavy and full stomach, Nigel and I try to control our intake especially at the opening house and so on. Usually, base on the past years data; I’m always full when I reached the 3rd home and when I’m full, I tend to nag due to the unease feeling and before we reached the 4th house, we heading home… This would always spoilt my dad’s mood and to the others as well, including me lah. So this year, I think the method works. FYI the only food which I long for are the combination of lemang and curry or lemang and rendang or lemang and pansoh and drink would always be coca cola or zapple. That’s it! Not more not less! No beer please. Wine or Tuak - According to my mood. I will tapau the food or drinks if I like it soooo damn much! No hesitation to be shy!! You can call me whatever you want! So in total, we visited 7 houses and it was more that a 100% increase!!!

Our Gawai days cointinue with the celebration of Sanub’s generation Gawai Day gathering at Kuching Park hotel. It was our family turn to organize it online. I think we did well, with 13 tables all together and all relatives came except for Wellino’s famlily whom can be excused due to some reason. ( I feel like to eat bread and peanut butter now!!!)

To be continued….. Gawao mood mode still ON:

Sik pa Fiz... rehat jak di umah.. use this time to rest and get more energy..

Malaysia Music Industry

I'm watching AIM the 17th currently and at the same time AF8 is aired on 104 while MENTOR is aired in channel 109. Hmm, why are there clashes on the airing time and date? Aren't they supposed to support each other in terms of quantitative? MMI is not as big as the European or the US music industry but why there so much fuss to show the entertainment at the same time in one day? Why not the Mentor is aired next week while the AF8 elimination is to be kept traditionally on Saturday during the concert it self? Why do they make American Idol as their bench mark? Malas dah i want to comment on this since i'm just talking to the table nor chairs!

To me Hafiz is still the best to compare the AF1-8 products. Why? Simple; He's versatile! Oklah, enough said. Tomorrow is a working day.. need to sleep early. Below is a clip which so damn famous when i was in Germany 3 years back! The song was aired on the radio for several days in 1 day and it has its on message which i found to be reliable and true. I wonder do they ever play this song here in my land Malaysia?

Enjoy yourself with the clip from u-tube.

Din Beramboi

Hmmm, what’s wrong with this morning, I asked myself... so very quiet and boring. The songs kept on playing without any failure just like we are having a concert in the morning and the thing is, it is without an emcee or dj. So all the singers sang their number beautifully and most of it are slow sad songs. No commercials too… It’s unbelievable. So I drove from home to work enjoying myself listening to 96.1 ERA channel only realizing that one of the DJ had passed away! Oh, no wonder it was cold every morning. Usually my journey would be a fantastic one, everyday. If one drive from the opposite drive towards me, they would think I’m crazy because I would dance and scream like as I’m in a concert! Oh, the last concert I attended was the final concert of the AF7. Believe me, it was fantastic! I didn’t care the kakak, nenek, datuk, abang or isteri orang that was sitting surrounds me. I made my Michael Jackson move ala ala moonwalker, with my hands swing from let to right and vice versa while my body was following the beat of the loud music accompanied by the perfect surround system, I think every one especially me enjoyed it so much! I was a good boy only when Aril sang his number. Well mannered boy! I don’t move a single even the mosquitoes passed me also managed to landing on my nose for a while to rest.

The first timed I heard his voice was when I was in Matriculation 2 in Penang. David Andrew room was just next to mine and he bought this tape full with Din Beramboi’s jokes and short funny stories. At first, I was so disgusted with his voice. It was so sarcastic and sounds rather stupid then funny. But when exams fever, that tape is the medicine. His jokes became funny and hilarious to me. I started to accept him until today. There was one riddle that made me laugh until now is: In many horses (kuda) , what kind of horse can see you but you cannot see it? Ha…. The answer was beyond my imagination but yet, it’s relevantly logical!

This week was really a sad week for everybody. I felt the same too. Though I have no connection to Din, but I would tune to his channel, read his Ujang’s comic and watch his tv programs. I’d like to wish my condolence to Allahyarham Din Beramboi’s family on this special and unwanted loss!. May you rest in Peace I

Busy Week

It’s the last day of week 41. Hmmm, what have I got for myself? Did I get enough? Frankly it was a long week. I dreamed a lot recently and some of it are still fresh in my mind. It’s weird you know because most of the time I will forgotten all the dreams the moment I had my morning bathe. Ok, here are some of it but it’s in random order of the days lah..
Dream1:
I got historical after my father killed a kitten just by stamp his foot on it.
Dream2:
-15 minutes pause-
Hmm surprisingly I’ve forgotten the dreams accept for the one above... hehehhee

Last Wednesday, we had dinner at mom’s place. It was raining cats and dogs. The reason for the gathering was to let all the board of seven directors, under the supervision of one chairman and one CEO to meet together and to have some discussion on their projects. We have so many pending projects which involve million of dollars (chewah) but the teams are so busy to save the planet earth. Anyway, all of us are the member of the Green Planet and we support NGOs who fights for the environmental. This week our 1st project would be officially lunch which is the opening of the Toda’s Arc Veterinary Center. The purpose is because of our love to the animals. I will write about it soonest after the official launching by the Padre’ in charge. Below s the sample of the invitation card for the function.

The rest of the projects will remain secrets but as you know, it is mainly for the love of the flora and fauna. It will only be exposed to the press and to the public when it is ready. At the meantime, enjoy yourself with the vc below.. This GEE group are very famous in Korea. When i was there, Bundang area, these ladies have their own very big phot taken and some of their songs became the hit in 2008. Enjoy it.. there are 2 version, the 1st version is from the originals singers and another one is from some clowns but the originals singers were there too and they only appear maybe 3 minutes before those clowns pass the song over to them... so spoiler one....



and the funny boys group...

Selamat Hari Raya Puasa

Yok Beraya!

Lagu: Hafiz Hamidun
Lirik: Ajieb
Artis: Hafiz AF7

Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

Oh kawan-kawan, bangunlah kawan
Solat sunat di pagi raya
Setelah itu maaf-maafan
Lenyapkanlah badai sengketa

Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

Mari kawan ku jamu hidangan
Lodeh, lontong resepi bonda
Bonceng basikal konvoi beramai
Ronda-ronda keliling desa

Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

Bridge:
Riuh ria bergembira
Jangan pula kita alpa
Buat yang sudah tiada
Ziarahi pusaranya


Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

Indahnya malam dengan pelita
Bunga api bermacam rona
Celoteh aku bak mulut murai
Balang kosong tak disedari

Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

Sudah pun jelas hari lebaran
Setahun sekali menjelma
Maaf dipinta tersilap kata
Kosong-kosong di hari raya

Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya
Yok beraya beraya beraya beraya ya ya ya

I know what i did last week..

Oh, it has been a while I’m out from the blog. But to stop blogging, No way.. I will not stop from blogging.. It’s the journey of my life anyway.. just like a diary where no all but around 60% of the events of my life would be recorded and kept safe in a big database. Last Friday, I took a day leave to meet the doctor and do some follow follow ups on my right ear. Well, it seemed to be good, dry and healthy again, though the shape is a bit different from the normal one. That evening wife and I went to uncle ujang’s house for a birthday party. They had BBQ and some traditional dishes.

On Saturday morning we went to see Andy’s project at Kota Samarahan. I think within the next 2 weeks, he can start business already. Yesterday he flew to KL t buy some tools and jigs. We went home around afternoons. In the evening we went to Sri Ijah to celebrate my birthday. We had Bi hun soup and I brought the cheese cake. I had good time that night. We all missed Bobo… Maybe we should have a funeral for Bobo like what we used to do to the other pets that we had…
Sunday means church. I really had a good time in church praising the Lord. After church, we had dinner at the King Centre. That evening, attend another birthday party nearby home. Saw some familiar faces. Monday was a Public Holiday It was the Malaysia national day. Wife went out with mom to Serian while I stayed at home. In the evening, I went out for a dinner at the Brooke’s café by the water front with an old school mate.

So, that was it. That was my weekends. Not so dull and not so interesting. So much eating and socializing, I guess. But I like!!


Oh, meet our new family member... The name is Sam, Samseng! It is the birthday gift from a friend of mine....

Finally I'm a certified shuffler..

I’ve been practicing shuffle so hard from my friend. Of course it was so difficult for the 1st time until I just want to quit. But I would not surrender so easily for I am a fighter, I keep on reminding myself. There’s one time I told Aril that I just want to pour a bottle of cooking oil on the floor where we do our exercise so that my feet could move to and fro easily. Yes we tried it one day but I kept on falling and nearly hit my head on the floor. After that we never do that anymore instead I practice harder especially on the moon walker style. It is amazing where you can move your one leg few inches in the air while another leg directs you to the left, to the right , or to the front and to the back.
Shuffling involve the whole body. After I master the leg part, I have to learn the hands part. It’s just like you are dancing gracefully where your legs and hands moving in a synchronal path. I managed to control the legs and the hands movement where it must be smooth and it does not make me look weird up on the stage during the performance which we want to participate. The video clip below shows people shuffling.



So what happen last night was so memorable to me. All the thsirt and the long pants were so fit on me,I really show people that even big size men can shuffle too. My family sure surprised to see me shuffel and even my wife would be in awe too. But too bad it happened only in my last night's dream…

MJ in MP at PM

I think everyone knows what it means. Sometimes people would think it's another word for short name for some word with only letters in it. My abbreviation is DT, Davidson Toda.
Things getting more interesting when Hafizfans.blogspot chatters were starting to use abbreviation to cut short the title of his 1st famous song, "Masih Jelas". Yes, they called it MJ. To comfortable not to type the full name, everybody seems to understand what MJ is, during the long hours chatting in the chatters box. But things became a little bit confuse when out of a sudden, the king of Pop, Michael Jackson died due to heart failure.

A: Hey, you know what, MJ is dead?
B; How dare you say that since is not out yet?
C: Ya lah, where is your support to our champ? You so terrible!!
-Of course when someone talked bad about their idol get ready to be fired-

Another scene..

D: Wahhhh, I love MJ, so different and fresh!
E: What the heck.. he's dead!

The 2 scenes above actually happened when people acted spontaneous to the subject which creates a conversation. I think we need to be careful using abbreviations when sometimes it needs to justify in special case...

Oh, Hafiz AF7 is in MP KCH and performing at PM tomorrow night. HFC is always there to support him!!!

MP KCH- MERDEKA PALACE KUCHING
PM - PADANG MERDEKA
HFC - HAFIZ FAN CLUB

Promote Hafiz Skejap.

Hmmm, I’m so satisfied listening to Hafiz mini album. I love the Ku Akui song, by Ajai. It is a broken hearted song where the singer regretted for being so workaholic when he should be with his companion more often. The singer had forgotten his priority in life, where relationship is to be put 1st before others. Ku Akui also mentioned that he would change his arrogant attitude if the times permit and he’d change the whole thing upside down.

I think though the song doesn’t suits me anymore, since I am married, I should learnt from it too. Never to take for granted on what I have and owned. Appreciate people around you more and mix with my newly neighbors.

I took Monday day leave, tired after Miri trip. Jet Lag I guess hehehe. I realized that Akim’s song Bengang is also good. If Hafiz sing it, it could be better! (No offend please). Anyway, that’s my personal opinion. Last week I told my colleagues (all of them are Chinese) about the AF reunion concert. I know they never watched AF, yes AF1 to AF7!! They watched only Hong Kong or Taiwan superstars. Well, I never blame them…. Just a promotion on Hafiz’s behalf…

Me: Hey Hafiz is coming on 25 July 09
C1: Who?
C2: *** Looking at me blurrly****

Me: Hafiz the champ from Sarawak of AF7, he will be coming this weekend!
C1: Who again?
C2: Getting more Blurrer

Me: You know I went to KL twice to watch him singing last time…
C1: Oh, I remember that… that guy…..oh ijit?
C2: *** Getting nowhere***
Me: Never mind, as long I mentioned it to you. Come to Padang merdeka if you are free, ok.

Wah! .. Some people… I couldn’t believe I’ve been working with them for about 10 years already? Well, different people, different interests.
I hope if not them, their children will one day recognized and listen to the songs from my Idol, Hafiz. :)

Mine's Here

It's coming it's coming.. hurrahhhhhhhhhhh.

Yesterday i received a phone call from my cousin telling me that our relative (my mama) is coming back from KL tonight. She will come not with empty handed, but she will bring us Hafiz 1st mini Album. Of course i have to pay her back upon receiving my CD. OMG, i just couldn't wait to hear the songs written and arranged by so many famous people.

Masih Jelas

Finally, the mini album is going to be launched today, after 2 weeks delay reasoned, the producer wanted it (the mini album) to be solid in quality, reliable of not to upset the fans and hot as Michael Jackson's 1st single! As one of the fanatic Hafiz fans (now my wife too), i don't even bother about those stuff infact i know, Hafiz is always a superb singer. That's why he won the AF7, right?

Below was the conversation that i had with my lil bro Hafiz previously....

Me: Adik, bila lah your album nak launch ni? Ni dah delay sekali dah. Kalau delay dua kali, fans sure buat demonstrasi di sarawak tu.. Entah2 declare darurat pulak...

Hafiz: 14 July, bang. Dia orang nak buat album ni as good as possible. Sabar eh bang Abet.
(Those people wants to make it as ..... be patience please, bro Abet)

Well, me being me would always never like to wait, especially when it is a good thing! From the latest informations, tough the launching is this afternoon, the mini album would only be available within a week time. That means i have to wait again. Oh, for Hafiz's sake, i'm cool as the north pole ices! I can wait, bacause it's woth it!

Don't mess with the customer...

I received this from a friend of mine...

..when you go to Famous Amos Café, Bangsar

This is a true story My daughter and I had just finished a muffin at Famous Amos Café in Bangsar & decided to have some cookies. Because both of us are such a cookie lovers, we decided to try the "Hawaiian Nut Cookie". It was so excellent that I asked if they would give me the recipe and the waitress said with a small frown "I'm afraid cannot". Well I said, "Would you let me buy the recipe?" With a cute smile, she said "YES". I asked how much and she responded, "only two fifty, it's a great deal!" I said with approval, "Just add it to my bill" Thirty days later, I received my VISA statement from Famous Amos and it was RM285.00. I looked again and remembered I had only spent RM9.95 for two muffins and about RM20.00 for a pie. As I glanced at the bottom of the statement, it said, "cookie recipe - RM250.00". That's outrages!!! I called the Famous Amos's Accounting Dept. and told them that the waitress said it was "two-fifty", which clearly does not mean "two hundred and fifty dollars" by any POSSIBLE interpretation of the phrase. Famous Amos refused to budge.. They would not refund my money, because according to them, "What the waitress told you is not our problem. You have already seen the recipe - we absolutely will not refund your money at this point." I explain to her the criminal statues which govern fraud in Malaysia. I threatened to refer them to police for engaging in fraud. I was basically told, "Do what you want, we don't care, and we're not refunding your money." I waited for a moment, thinking of how I could get even, or even try to get any of my money back. I just said, "Okay, you people got my RM2-50.00, and now I'm going to have a RM250.00 worth of fun." I told her that I was going to see to it that every cookie lover in Malaysia with an email account has a RM250.00 cookie recipe from Famous Amos...for free... She replied, "I wish you wouldn't do this" I said, "Well you should have thought of that before you stole from me", and slammed down the phone on her. So, here it is!!! Please, please please pass it on to everyone you can possibly think of. I paid RM250.00 dollars for this...I don't want Famous Amos to ever get another cent off of this recipe.....

Recipe may be halved:
2 cups butter 4 cups flour 2 tsp. baking soda
2 cups granulated sugar
2 cups brown sugar
5 cups blended oatmeal (measure oatmeal & blend in blender to a fine powder)
24 oz. chocolate chips
1 tsp. salt
18 oz. Cadbury bar (grated)
4 eggs
2 tsp. baking powder
3 cups chopped nuts (your choice)
2 tsp. vanilla

cream the butter and both sugars. Add eggs and vanilla; mix together with flour, oatmeal, salt, baking powder, and soda. Add chocolate chips, Cadbury bar and nuts. Roll into balls and place two inches apart on a cookie sheet.. bake for 10 minutes at 375 degrees. Makes 122 cookies..

Have fun..!! This is not a joke - this a true story...Ride free , this isn't some stupid chain letter either...pass it on...if you don't, you won't die or get dumped...you'll just do the world an injustice...

Hmm, since tomorrow is Saturday, why don't i try this recipe?? hahaha

Hafiz and Me again.

Actually I don’t have any idea on what to write nor what to tell you regarding my trip to Sukma Ria last Sunday. I didn’t even know whether i have chance to meet my idol face to face by looking at the crowd at that time. There were young and old, men and women, children were wandering around the taman sukma parking spot, and thank you to my friend Jac whom advised me to go there later in the afternoon because that is the time where the celebrities would perform.
So I packed my SLR canon 400D, brough both my 50mm and 55 mm - 250mm lenses in my adidas bag. A piece of towel, oh, it’s going to be hot day and not forgetting my bucket hat to cover my head from the direct sunlight. Thinking of getting a new MP3 player and a sun glass for my self, but not now.. tengah pokai.. hehehe.
Arrive there around 3.00pm, wow, the seas of crowd were everywhere. I couldn’t find any familiar faces until I went back of the stage to the left side, between the tent and the stage where I found a cool lower temperature area. Tomok was singing at that time bt I didn’t bother at all. From far, Zhea called me, “Abet!!!” and started to get excited at least I found a friend there.

Zhea: Abet, Kaka, Dnaz and Nano are here.
Me: Is it? Where are there?

Then I saw 3 beautiful ladies in front of me. All the while we knew each other thru the chatters box and by their nick names but OMG, I met them live, in Kuching! They were sweet and single!! (Except gorgeous Kaka). So I humby introduced myself to them.

Zhea: Abet, Shylunee is over there..
Me: Where? Where?

I was eager to meet this lady. I ever read about her being mistreated in the blog… She sounded like a monster but when I looked at a petit lady in pink, noooo, this can’t be her… hehehe… nice to meet you all!!!

I snapped some pictures and out of the blue, I was already in the tent where all the celebrities were gathered. It is the place where they dressed up, eat, and do their personal business. The tent was quite big and airconditioned. Drinking waters are provided too. The tent was really being guarded closly to prevent outsiders (like me lorr) to enter and disturb the privacy of the celebs. As I enter the tent, I was so speechless. I saw mentor, Dafi’s fan club members, Dafi himselves, Mr and Mrs Suip, Aerwan and his cousins and 3 of my friends.

Mentor: Abet, you are here also? How are you? Have you eaten? There are mi goreng on the table, go head and enjoy your selves.
Me: Oh, ok, emmmm, is Hafiz in here? (What a question)
Mentor: Hafiz is there…

Pointing to Hafiz mother… oh, only know I see him because he was sitting just next to her beautiful beloved mother ( my future mak angkat - boleh sik kamek jadi anak angkat kitak madam? )

I didn’t go direct to him instead I talked to his cousin Aerwan first. Then Hafiz's mother, Mrs Suip call me, while Cikgu Suip was seated next to her.

Mrs Suip: Abet congratulations!
Me: What madam? Why congrates? (Me blur)
Mrs Suip: Congratulations for your wedding!
Me: Oh, oh ya.. I just got married last month.. (me blushing)

After few minutes chatting with the parents, then I go to the son, whom was sooooooooo busy doing the signings and photo taking by anonymous cameras.

Me: Hi Hafiz, lamak sik nanga tek,? (Yeah right.. as if he knows who I am)
Hafiz: Hi Abang Abet, yalah. Apiz busy gilak tok....

So the rest of the conversations remain confidential.... He did admit that he needs to change his life style from being just a normal boy into a superstar. I agree with him for it is right for his image being so young in this music industry, he is a good raw model to his young supporters (like me).

I went back around 6.30 pm. I had a fantastic time, especially upon hearing Hafiz sang Masih Jelas and I believe I can fly, lively! Me so happy!

Oh, yeah, to Nano, Kaka, Dynaz, Ebba, Zhea,Qaf, Kipas, Shy and the rest whom become the members of Hafizfan club, let us continue to support him in any ways and no matter what. Hafiz is where he is because of Us!

A Tribute to Michael Jackson

One day in your life
You'll remember a place
Someone touching your face
You'll come back and you'll look around, you
One day in your life
You'll remember the love you found here
You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apartYou'll remember one day . . .
One day in your life
When you find that you're always waiting
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and I'll be there
You'll remember me somehow
Though you don't need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
You'll remember one day . . .
One day in your life
When you find that you're always lonely
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and I'll be there.

Hai Abet - Hafiz_AF7

Now I have 3 idols and they are Harrison Ford, Julia Robert and Hafiz AF7. Why I like them? Ok, let me start from my friend Mr. Harrison Ford. In short, I call him Harris. Harris is a very good actor. Few of his movies which I watched several times are Air Force One, The Patriot Game and Indiana Jones the sequels. He has some kind of aura where every time he acts, he always is the big guy like the President of the USA, the marshal and so on. I like him charisma though.
Julia Robert or Miss Juli is a beautiful and rich actress. She is cool, royal like, lady like and so gorgeous! I want to be her boyfriend if she would accept me and of course with the permission from my fiancé lah. Few good movies which I enjoy watching are My Best friend’s wedding and Step Mom. Finally, who doesn’t know the AF7 winner? His name is Mohd Hafiz b Mohd Suip from Kuching! Just the guy next door. No need for me to introduce hafiz in here. He is as cool as Haris and Juli.

How I wish all of us could meet in round table, chat as long lost friends while sipping a cup of black coffee with crackers under a Sakura tree (how big is Sakura tree) in autumn somewhere over the rainbow… hahahha.. Guys, i know you all are busy, especially you Hafiz. Keep up the good job and always think positively!

Anyway, Haris and Juli were so busy in US. Only Hafiz managed to say Hi! to me last night…

My friend Mathew called me this morning asking me about my wedding preparation. There were a lot of questions and since he asked, i took the opportunity to request him to sing during my reception dinner at the hotel. At first he was quite reluctant but you knowlah... i'm a good persuader kan? hahaha.. No lah, he's doing it for a friend's sake. Thanks Matt!

Matt: David, you have not tell me how you two met...
Me: Oh, it will be share during the dinner. Perhaps you sing a song after that??
Matt: #&*$&%b &)&%&)(#)%q#) %#q&)q#
(i couldn't remember his long "Don't Want-at first'' answer
Me: You know the song Dia by Sheila Majid? It tells everrything about how the relations start. Under the moonlight :)
Matt: Oh, i love that song. I will sing it for you two on that night! I start and practise now. I wonder what would my neighbour say if i sing this in BM.. hahaha.

Nah, easy to ask him to sing, kan? Matt, thank you in advance. You'll make my wedding more colorful!

Enjoy the clip!

Dear Sarimah ASTRO

Dear Sarimah ASRTO,

Telinga saya bernanah pabila aunty selalu jer menyebut nama Aril berulang ulang kali di dalam diari malam tadi. Tolong jangan bersikap bias terhadap pelajar yang telah terkeluar ya. Tolong bersikap profesional dan sedar tidak ramai yang minat kepada dia. bagi saya, saya terpaksa berulang kali bertukar channel apabila setiap kali nama dia disebut dan diceritakan kebaikkannya. Saya rasa tidak payahlah mengenang peristiwa yang berlalu dan baik lagi kita maju kedepan dengan mambawa pelajar yang seida ada yang tinggal dalam akademi tersebut.

Diharap Sarimah ASTRO mempertimbangkan kehendak saya yang tidak mahu lagi telinga dan mata dan jari saya bernanah.

Sekian.
