A Thank You Note (written in Facebook as at June 30th, 2008)
My first time. My first ever experience. And I mostly wanted to thank Muid for giving me the opportunity to be part of it. I couldn't even begin writing on how much I love him but yeah, despite everything else, I really do.
As much as I am proud my pictures were there, I'm most excited to see people reading my poems. They did and some took pictures. There were this conflicting emotions, where in one hand, I felt a bit protective of it (like what if they plagiarised it and said they made it up themselves?), and on the other hand, I felt flattered. It was worth enough to be in photo, for them to use and jot down. Then it must be good la. (terpaksa convince diri sendiri, pathetic ol me).
So this is a thank you note.
I would like to also thank my fellow comrades, the {dmp} team. Nadirah baby, I'm glad that you're part of it. I'm so happy, I felt you so near even though you're so far (okay, eating Big Apple doughnuts while calling you in New York, how much closer can one get eyh???). You know what, when you said your dream was to exhibit your works in KLPAC and its a dream come true for you, I couldn't be more happier! I'm counting the day for your arrival home, my new creative sister! hehehe. Perez for such a great video that made everyone stop and enjoyed our section. Fozy for the genius motion puzzle, I think it was one of the greatest thing in the gallery. Fariz for the cute kitty Cycle Displacement video and his effort of setting up the place with us. And Prakash cayang for his strong photos, hilarious jokes and help during the dismantling and cleaning up process. Muid of course. Can never thank him enough. But his Unity piece struck a good deal of message from {dmp}.
My KLickr buddies who have done such a great job with the time lapse video. And the unexpected visit at 2am during the set up process by Mizie, Shafina and Adi. Having to hangout with them during Urbanscapes. I'd like to congratulate those who were involved in the KLickr 24-hour Time Lapse video and the 24 Hour Photo project. Shaf, Han, Adi, Mizie, Johan, Ripi, Asyraf Lee, Erna Dyanty and others. One of the memorable moments was when Erna hugged me and said "Congratulations sweetheart, I'm so proud of you!". Erna who had exhibited her works so many time, one of the greatest photographers I've known personally, hugged me with that much faith in me, I couldn't felt more honoured and flattered. I love you Erna!!!!! And other KLickr members who came, LJ, Magnus, Vig, Faris, Belanda and wife, Kabir, Hilmi and the rest. You guys made my day! Its a big big family!!! Sorry couldn't make it for the group shot tho. And Suzz and Melissa, the Yahoo Flickr folks from Singapore who dropped by and see my work too. Suzz took some photos of it!!! Yeay!!!!
My personal friends.
Kamal, thanks for dropping by a note for me, I am so so sorry I couldn't meet you becos I was stuck at the Acoustic Room watching Mia Palencia (she is such a great performer/singer/person. We'll catch up with that bear hug soon ok!
Rizal, thanks for the sweetest photo of us. Glad to bump into you.
Aunty Anya (Salamiah Hassan) for dropping by!!! Hehehehe, so hip and happening la!!! Best best!
Andrew, haven't met you for so long, used to have lots of coffee session with Andrew. hehehe. Leng Chai sudah botak, gua tala kenal sudah.
Inaz, sorry didn't manage to catch up but we did manage to share some hungry eating jokes kan.
Izzah, nice to finally meet you. KL is such a small city kan, everyone seems to be on a 1-degree separation. But had to say, nasib baik Rashdan left you there, so I had to spend time getting to know you. And thanks for bringing Razlin there, which lead me to my next thanks ....
Razlin, thanks thanks thanks for being there babe!!!!
Nadiah and Eka. Thanks so much for being there, for lepaking with me, for showing me true love exists (even in a grossy way, haha) and Eka, its so awesome that I had the chance to use THE EKSTER machine. *yes, now I feel just so much hotter* Hahahaha. We must do dinner soon. Glad we spent some time together chatting and walking. Hehehehehe ...
Nell oh Nell. Sorry I cudn't spend more time with you (cos you hilang lap-sap-ing elsewhere). But our talks, walks and me pau-ing your drinks is enough to show we did spent time together.
Oya and Emi. You guys are the rockest couple I've ever met! You guys being there, memang best giler (and I'm not just talking about the excellent photos).
Donna! Finally, party animal yang sentiasa sibuk. Hehehhe. You know hyped up the scene and got a lovely picture of me going crazy! Haha.
Fynaz and Gjie, walaupun sedikit lambat but tetap best having you guys there. Finally Fynaz dapat tengok kerja anak anak pak Latif.
Suzie who came in with style and a new hat. Hehehehehe .... Thanks so much for being there, and bringing your 400D, and being there, and lepaking with us and bringing Farid and for being there. and yeah, please do upload them photos. Hehehehe. *compliments of Little Miss Chatterbox*
Atilia yang sesudah menyanyi pun masih mahu singgah to see us and lepaking and of course, those weird dance moves we did in public. Wawaweewa!!! You and now my official dancing gila gila buddy! Hahahaha ...
And those who I met for the first time and who came to support DigitalMalayaProject and came because of me. If I left out anyone, I am deeply sorry and I blame my limited memory space. It had become pretty selective these days I don't know why. Either that or I'm just a big walking Dory fish with a 3-second memory.
THANK YOU ALL AND YOU GUYS DEFINITELY ROCK MY SOCKS!!!!!! I LOVE YOU GUYS TO BITS AND PIECES!!!!
