Updates ... Updates ... Updates ...
Atilia Haron will be performing as a Guest Singer to Eric Li's Afro-Cuban Night at No Black Tie this Friday (22nd August at 10.30pm). The great line up will include Eric Li (piano), Jon Cavendish (bass), Adam Osmianski (drums), Valtinho Anastacio (percussions), Razak (percussions). Eric Li will be performing like a doctor injecting an Afro-Cuban twist into Atilia's "Sangkar", "Ranjau" and "Sudah". There will be cover charge which is RM30 per person.
BeeteedoubleU, No Black Tie is just next to Palate Palette so its advisable to go right after work, have a nice dinner at Palate Palette before you get to salsa with Atilia at No Black Tie later on okay! *winks*
Info: No Black Tie is located at 17, Jln Mesui, Golden Triangle (behind Hotel Istana). You can call (03) 2142 3737 or email noblacktie@gmail.com for more information or for reservations.
Please don't forget to tune in 8TV (Astro channel 708) on Tuesday (tonight) at 9.30pm for 5Jingga, a new local musical teen drama about a group of highschool cheerleaders. You can also view it on video streaming online at www.8tv.com.my.
This Saturday, 23rd August 2008 is World Photowalk Day initiated by Scott Kelby, and our dearest KLickr admin, Shafina has registered Kuala Lumpur to be participating for this event. We will roam the still existing Kampung Baru in the middle of Kuala Lumpur before it is demolished. I'm just looking forward for the walking exercise because I need to buff myself up for a certain photoshoot with a superb photographer. Hehehehe. I was supposed to register for a 10km marathon on August 24th but apparently Effa called in the secretariat and found out that they have reached their quota and will not accept anymore registration! Damnit! Never mind, I shall enter the next marathon available. I need to run for life. Hehehe, literally and metaphorically. But nevertheless, if you're in Kuala Lumpur and wish to join us, do log on to the World Photowalk Day - Kuala Lumpur and register yourself there!!!
Photos are up on Facebook. I am still listening to Uh Huh Her. Enjoy this clip with 2 of my favourite songs from Uh Huh Her. They're a very very cool duo. Any girl who can rock a keyboard and bass, definitely rocks my socks! But Camila Grey has a very impressive portfolio having to play for Dr. Dre and the likes, and Leisha Hailey, not only is she a HOT and talented actress, she also came a long way from The Murmurs. This band reminds me of the magic Shirley Manson brings whenever I start screaming my lungs out while listening to Garbage. Ahhh, the old days revisited. But you'll definitely enjoy Uh Huh Her. Most definitely, no doubt, Uh Huh...
Don't forget to go watch "Susuk" the movie.
And please vote for my friend, Matthias Gelber in his pursuit to becoming The Most Green Person on Earth!!! You can log on to - 3rdwhale.com to vote and before that, have a go on his promo clip which I include here.
to note: Funky Mood Swing (FMS) alert so excuse for the excessive cursing here. Hahahaha.
How are you lads and lasses doing???? Me, sick, insomniac, catching up with tons of friends during the weekends, lap-topless, not uploading any pictures of recent activities and the list goes on. Yes, the Beijing Olympics started on the 8th of August, 2008. Good number altho I have to say, that morning, I saw 4 ambulances and 2 accidents on my way to work. Lucky for some, but not for all. Hey, thats just life, right?
Among other things, the latest buzz would be the 8TV's latest teen drama, 5 Jingga (in malay, Jingga means the colour orange). A drama about high school cheerleading team, I'm just proud to say its my friend Hunny Madu's tv debut. A superbly-talented singer and rapper, Hunny Madu is now, not only a radio DJ, but an actress as well! Catch her in the show, Tuesday at 9.30pm on 8TV. I don't know whether they would webcast the show on the 8TV site, but I do hope so later in the future for non-tv people like me. Haha.

As the campaign manager (haha) for Effa Desa's My Aussie Ambassador online voting contest, I am most proud to tell the world that we managed to raised nearly 18,000 votes within 1 1/2 months for her, bringing her from 6th place to the 3rd place. The rat race became more intense when on the final 30 minutes (11.30pm, Sunday, August 10th), we were putting the last fight because we fell 200 votes behind as number 4, and thanks to dearest Johan Sopiee, we managed to fight for it in our final attempt and brought her up back to 3rd place. However, the final results will only be announced on August 15th, 2008 (this Friday). We'll be having a small celebratory toast at Palate Palatte this Sunday, do dropby if you're within the vicinity.
I would like to express my highest congratulations for Sue Anna Joe for her big win 'Best Movie Poster' in Festival Filem Malaysia (Malaysia's version of Academy Awards) last Saturday (August 9th, 2008). When I got to know of her win, I reminisce back to our meet in 1998, for MRSM Language week where I represented my school for the English debate and so did she. We became penpals ever since and her creativity shown thru all those creative cards she often send me. In particular my 17th Birthday card where she did a glittery Austin Power theme. Hahaha. Well babe, Congratulations, you're now a household name, and I look forward to our future collaboration (if any) in the future!

I would invite everyone to go watch Susuk the movie in the cinema near you (if you live in Malaysia that is) !!! I was there on the opening night and wanted to much to congratulate Amir Muhammad in person but chickened out. Hahaha. Managed to say hi to the talented madam director Yasmin Ahmad, who asked me whether I was wearing a 'susuk' for my nice-looking looks. Hahahahaha. (giler perasan). But I just have one comment, This movie will leave you putting the pieces of the puzzle much later after the movie finished. Amir Muhammad and Naiem Ghalili did a very good job for this. Ida Nerina is superb as always. But I do have a few disappointments on Diana Rafar's and Gambit's performances. But thats just my 2 cents, everyone is entitled to their opinions and preferences. But do go! Watch it 2 times if you must! Most certainly not a movie for simple-minded people who wanted simple movie tho.
Susuk is a practice of inserting charm needles with the help of paranormal beings without having to shed a single drop of blood and minus the excruciating pain of conventional needles and blades. This is best described as the paranormal version of plastic surgery with very satisfying results. This method can best serve the aging wives of the ministers that are worried of loosing their husbands to foreign beauty queens waiting to get their hands on unsuspecting ministers and diplomats. Susuk, when inserted in the right places is also said to enhance sexual performance. No one is able to resist having sex with you no matter how ugly you may look. The experience is said to be out of this world. Susuk can also maintain youth and therefore, suitable for ministers who wish to live a very long wealthy, not necessarily healthy life. There is also a form of susuk known as “buluh perindu”, usually worn inside the mouth. Those using this susuk can charm anyone including their worst enemies and should be very useful during election campaigns.
This weekend, I plan to go somewhere for a scream. Up on a cliff or on a rooftop where no one would call the police on me when I scream "FUCK YOU, YOU FUCKING HORMONES" outloud. Hahahaha. well, its good to let lose once awhile, don't you think?
Okay, enjoy a little video for this week. I love, love, love, love IT! I love dancing to it in my car driving home from work!
