Refleksi Diri

While I was browsing through some blogs, I came across with this one, BUJANG SUSAH. I find that his posts are quite interesting, interesting enough for me to follow.

Just now, I read his comment on my previous post, KK Moments. He commented that I have such a nice blog - thank you very much for that - and also mentioned something about RIAK. What does he means by that? Thus, I begin to wonder.

Ini komen blogger Bujang Susah dalam entry KK Moments

Terdetik di hati saya, apakah motif di sebalik komen tersebut? Do I sound 'riak' to him? Or is it just a good reminder / advice - it is actually. 

Motifnya hanya saudara Bujang Susah yang tahu. Sebagai seorang manusia biasa, saya tidak dapat mengelak daripada memikirkan bahawa mungkin saya tampil riak melalui apa yang saya utarakan dalam post saya sebelum ini. Jikalau ada sesiapa yang berfikiran sedemikian, saya meminta maaf. Niat saya bukan untuk membangga diri dengan apa yang saya post dalam blog ini. Saya cuma ingin berkongsi pengalaman. Semua perkara yang saya bincangkan dalam blog saya ini adalah berdasarkan pengalaman diri saya sendiri dan saya tidak pernah berniat untuk membangga diri. 

Maybe I over-analyzed Bujang Susah's comment. But it's OK coz it's a good thing for me. I came to think of how people perceived what we said and how we thought we were doing it right. Each individual has different ways of looking at things. Some things might be true to some people and might not to some others. Just like what my friend, Fairuz always say, being not normal is NORMAL to some people and being normal is ABNORMAL for some others. My point is, we look at things differently.

Well, back to the issue, apakah motif saudara Bujang Susah? I have no friggin idea. But thanks so much. You've made me reflect on myself. =)

KK Moments

I feel ultra-excited today. Why? I'll tell all about it here.

But before that..

Continuation from my last entry, yeah, regarding the Miss World thingy.

So, Miss World 2009 is Miss Gibraltar!

Shocking? Not really. I don't really care actually. Miss USA is still my fav.

***

Okay, where was I just now? Oh yeah. I am excited today. So many things happened today (in the house).

Where shall I start? 

How bout when I woke up this morning? Hm, sounds great! Haha!

I woke up early in the morning today, nothing much happened. It was ordinary except that it was super hot outside. Luckily, I was inside the house. In fact, I didn't even touch the ground today. The sun were not able to harm me. So I was safe.

Later, Ian James came. For song practice of course. So we practiced and practiced until suddenly we were disturbed by the sound of Mel, the cat. Mel kept on meow-ing. We had no idea what her problem was until we saw some kind of liquid coming out from her vagina part. Wait, is that a right word to describe that part of an animal? Doesn't matter lah. Yang penting kamu faham. Haha.

Anyway, we then came to realize that Mel was going to give birth. We rushed and searched around to find her a box but the cat refused to give birth in the box. Instead, she went into Mink's wardrobe and stayed there. We were like, "OK fine! Let her in there".

We waited for like 3 hours to finally see her giving birth to her first kitten. It was amazing. Delivering a baby sounds very painful yet Mel did it effortlessly. The kitten fell down on the floor from her vagina like a water flowing from a pipe. It was my first time watching a God's creature gave birth.

Mel still had one more to deliver. But this time it wasn't easy. We saw a leg coming out. Wait, something is very wrong here. Supposedly, the head was supposed to come out first.

"Uina, kelahiran SONGSANG ini!"

So we waited, waited, waited for quite some time but nothing happened. Poor cat. She couldn't let the kitten out and she was in terrible pain. Therefore, we decided to help her. Mink and I pulled the leg out. Sambil c Mel meneran sambil kami tarik. Finally after like an hour of pulling and 'meneran-ing', it was finally out. Phew! We officially became a vet today. But, unfortunately the kitten is dead. Poor cat. Mel has lost one of her two kittens. Good thing she still has one. I bet she's going to really really love her only kitten. Mel fell asleep just after the whole thing. I bet she must be really really exhausted. Kesian betul.

Anyway, it was interesting yet sad. What an experience! Hehe.

Moving on, we sat and relaxed after the whole incident. Suddenly, a message came. It was from Asmin Mudin. 

He's gonna give me the demo my new song today! Yeay! 

Later, he came and gave me the demo. Tdk sabar mw dengar. Haha.

So, I've heard it and I love it. It sounds just right, just like my style. I can't wait to go into a recording studio and record the song. Haha.

***

This is regarding my performance at Sutera Harbour. Mior just called and said that they are missing a piano for that event. No piano means no pianist and that simply means I'm not going to perform. They said they are still working on it and hopefully they can find a piano. That's just sad. I've been practicing for quite some time and it's just not fair. However, I'm still OK if they cancel the performance because I am less confident to sing those jazzy jazzy kinda songs. It's way beyond my music genre. Nnt kalo x ngam, org x suka pla. It's dangerous!

Well, that's all for this time.

See you again.

Signing out, Fanzi.

Miss World 2009

I've read somewhere that Madeline Nandu was Malaysia's representative for the Miss Earth pageant. As a Sabahan, I'm glad for her because she's also a Sabahan. I sound so patriotic, I know. Hehe. Although she didn't win the title but still, she proved that Sabahan chicks are 'spicy' (I mean beautiful la tu). 

Bila sda baca-baca artikel pasal Miss Earth ni tergerak pla hati mw tgk-tgk pasal Miss World pla. Therefore, I typed Miss World 2009 on the Google's search bar and clicked whatever I was supposed to click. Hm, cun-cun  & lawa-lawa juga lah wanita-wanita itu. I searched high and low for the ONE girl that shall be my favourite among the bunch. I scrolled down the page and this one girl from USA caught my attention. She's damn HOT. Her name is... I forgot her name. Let's just call her Miss America.

Isn't she lovely? I want her to win. USA rules Miss World 2009. Go USA! Uiseh, Malaysia please don't hate me. Oh ya, sy ada tgk jugak Malaysia punya representative. Not bad. Ada ummph juga. I forgot her name but I think she's capable on bringing competition to the other girls. Have I mentioned that our Miss World girl this year is Indian? Yes, she's Indian and she's beautiful. I think she's one of the best Malaysian representatives to the competition. Walaubagaimanapun, Miss Deborah Priya Henry tetap menjadi pujaan ku. Hikhik. She's the best. Oh ya, and Lina Teoh also.

By the way, Miss Indonesia and Miss Mexico pun lawa juga.

Miss Indonesia

Miss Mexico

Here's Miss World Malaysia 2009. 

I'd be happy if she wins the title, because she's Malaysian and I'm Malaysian. But I'm really rooting for Miss America. Peace!

Sweet Surprise

My friends informed me that the results are out. I tried to log in the UiTM website but it wasn't easy because the web server was busy. I continuously refreshed the page and finally managed to enter after like 30 minutes of clicking the refresh icon.

This sem, sy x expect result yg bgs sebab the subjects x senang. Kebanyakannya susah-susah. The only subject yg sy yakin dpt A ialah Drama. Waktu page loading tu, dlm hati sy bdoa moga-moga pointer x turun dr 3.00.

Like POOF! the page was fully loaded. I was shocked because my result was insane. Ndala meletup gila-gila tahap dewa dewi tp OK la dr jangkaan sy. Ada ka patut dpt A untuk Phonetics. I was like, "Biar betul ini? Result org lain kali sy buka ni". Cek-cek lagi, hm, mmg result sy ba pula. Syukur kepada Allah. Alhamdulillah. Dapat masuk DL juga. I managed to accomplish my mission. Last sem pointer sy jatuh. Sem ni naik balik. Thank God. Tercapai juga hasrat mw dpt DL sem ni. Next mission, DL lg next sem. Amin.

Seperti jangkaan, Drama dpt A. Yg mengejutkan Phonetics dpt A. Plus or minus tu x pyh la bgtw. Hehe. I thought I was gonna fail my French subject because I accidentally slept throughout the last test and left the room with so many unanswered questions on my answer sheet. Tp OK jugak pla. 

I'm lucky this time. Hopefully it'll continue.

Buang Tebiat

Hols are fun. No time for internet and stuff. Right now I'm in KK, preparing for the show (Vacheron Constantin / Cortina Watch) at Ferdinand's, Sutera Harbor (Woah, sounds so grand, right? Hehe). I'm really nervous yet excited about this show. Mr Mior is really hoping the best from us.

Kali ni sy mw tulis blog dlm bahasa Melayu slang Sabah. Malas sda sy mw ber-speaking. Haha. Campur-campur la kali. Mcm tu org Penampang selalu cakap "Eh, today you don't write blog kah? I rindu mw baca blog you. So boring this if teda yg mw dibaca".

So, lemme talk about the show. According to Mr Mior, the event is to promote jam tangan. I dunno la jam tangan yg mcmn tu tp yg penting I'll be singing. Ian James will be the pianist. He's one of the most talented pianists I've ever met. Jari jemari dia punya men laju kalo dia main. Boleh challenge Maxim sda. And he has a very good R&B voice too. Mmg complete package lah as a musician. I envy him. I wish I had his fingers. So, we'll be collaborating for the show. Just so you know, this is the second time I work with him dlm ni 'bisnes'. Hehe. If you remember Konsert KPM, he was the arranger of the song Nothing's Gonna Change My Love For You.

So, back to the show, I'll be performing 15 songs (there'll be 3 sets of performances). Yang bikin mati tu semua lagu jazz. I think most of you yg pernah dgr sy nyanyi mesti sda tau yg genre jazz is not my cup of tea. Adeh, mati la ni meng-adjust singing style nanti. Nda payah jerit-jerit sda. Mesti buat mcm b'bisik jak. Haha.

Anyway, the event will be on the 16th December. Wish me luck guys. Skrg tgh busy praktis lagu-lagu ni.

Fs Vs Fb

I'm not sure when was the last time I checked in my Friendster account. I opened it this morning and

WOAH!

New layout. I thought it was kinda cute with its new green header until I realized that I actually have seen this layout before.

DEJA VU?

I thought, "Ah, never mind". Then I opened my Facebook and then I noticed that Friendster's new layout looks almost the same. The word CLONE suddenly popped up in my head.

Is it just me or do they really look almost similar?

Let's see and compare.

Friendster versus Facebook

LOGIN PAGE

HOME PAGE

PROFILE PAGE

So, they both do look similar, I think. What do you think? We all know that Facebook is like the new girl in town and Friendster is maybe trying to compete to regain its ultimate reputation long time ago before Facebook came into the picture. But can they compete by cloning Facebook? Okay, it's not cloning because they are not exactly similar. But the similarities are obvious. 

I love Friendster. I created my first blog there. I love Facebook as well. It's modern, funky and cool. Oh, I love them both but I gotta admit, Facebook is HOTTER.
