20.09.05: Black Eye Peas' Gig




First of all, sorry...no upclose photos of the band. My Ixus II ain't powerful enuff to capture clear images of them, so here are some pathetic pics of Black Eye Peas gig. I was there with Iyuan & Sue.

The band made us wait quite a long time before kickin off the gig with Hey Mama. Fergie was fully clothed. haha! Poor iyuan was expectin her in her mini skirt but he was disappointed the whole nite thru but at least she was doin her "thang". I lurve the way she moves her hips!! The first half of the gig was pretty mild i must say...I like the second half better cos there was more attitude innit, even Iyuan moved his hips! *i like*

I was kinda surprised that Fergie did not hog the limelight in fact it's the Filipino dude that kinda stole the show. These guys r really a groovy & fun buncha ppl, they injected some humour and spice up other bands'/singers' songs. They did a lil rendition of "No Woman No Cry", "Milkshake" & a couple more Hip Hop songs which i am not sure of their titles. Even so, somehow i felt they did not really connect with the audience.

Nevertheless, it was a pretty enjoyable gig.

Attn Nurkhairani (if u r lookin thru tis album): Were u at the gig also? I think I saw u on my way out of the stadium.

Sitz's 21st Splatday!




4th September was spent at cuzzin Sitz's place. Had a gathering there to celebrate her turning 21 as well as her graduation & her bro's return.

Although not all our family members turned up, my parents were missin too, we still had a good time esp. with lil Khairi to keep us all giggly & smitten. Khairi is our one year old nephew, he's really active & inquisitive. Pulled the heartstrings of his few aunties with his antics. Haha!

The birthday gurl loved the gifts that Kak Ekin, Liz & I got her....a brown bag & retro-ish swirly wurly scarf! YEAY!!

The best part of the gatherin was abt an hour before we headed home. Tis was wat happened. Kak Ekin was the mastermind who suggested we sabotage Sitz with the sinfully creamy birthday cake, i thought it was a Brilliant idea! So we got coordinated. Got Liz to be a pseudo photgrapher cum accomplice and we called Sitz to pose a photo with me as I got in my hand a plate of CREAM no cake! She didn't suspect a thing despite Liz's cheeky giveaway giggles and after Liz counted 1, 2, 3...SPLAT!!!

Wahahaha it was soo funny till Sitz started to chase me out of the house and got me trapped. She CREAMED me too & proceeded to share the Cream carnage with Liz & Kak Ekin! *LoL*

Shall we have a repeat for Liz's birthday, cuzzins??? Oooohohohohohoh!!!!

Katrina Katrina...

It has probably been a week since Hurricane Katrina hit New Orleans. I did not pay much attention to it initially but after a few headlines and thoughts of my online buddy & her lil baby in the US, I decided to get updated. I am not familiar with the locations of each US state and I am hoping so damn hard she is not near New Orleans or any place affected by the hurricane. Yesterday, I finally decided to check out proper the different states of US (hey Sean, i noe where u are located now) and thank God North Carolina is few states away from Louisiana & Mississippi!

Upon seein photos of the aftermaths in ChannelNewsAsia's gallery & more pics in Multiply, i felt so guilty, guilty of bein nonchalant, guilty of bein ignorant n guilty of bein passive. It was juz 9 months ago that we Asian's had our very own calamity and the sights were devastating. And to think, such similar sights can be seen comin from the US, the powerful n mighty country. major floodings, lost of properties, deaths, refuging...And looting n lawlessness are at high when each and everyone is tryin their best to survive. And the military ppl seemed to be providin relief at a disappointingly slow timing. I wish I could help out but i'm incapable to, at tis point of time. I could only offer my prayers for the victims to be patient & live strong amidst the chaos they are in now.

The pictures comin from the affected area kinda humbled me. Even though America is a powerful country, yet when the forces of God hit them, they fall too n succumb to the Greatness of Almighty juz like the affected islands of Indonesia, Thailand, Sri Lanka & Maldives, juz like in the Movies...the effect of Hurricane Katrina reminds me very much of the movie "Day after Tomorrow". Will more of such attacks, crumble America? Economically? God knows...I just hope the people caught in the calamity will emerge stronger & united & bounce back to their normal life, juz like the people in Patong. It is gonna be tough, but if the Thais can do, why not Americans? God bless...



To Be or Not to Be?

That is the question that has been weighin on my mind for a couple of days.


So wat's my problem? Let's see...


Back in July,a girl handed me her name card n requested for my number. I gave it to her and last Wednesday, someone from her company called. She said I was selected for an interview & needed one photo of myself. Hmm ok, it got me pretty excited so on Thursday, I bugged Dee on wat to wear & cuzzin Sitz to accompany to develop my makeover photos.


So then, Friday was D-day. Despite bein excited, I felt skeptical too. I had an interview with i Models Intl at the SIngapore Shoppin Centre. I personally have not heard of the company before but I have heard stories abt the scams of some model agencies. All they want is ur money, do up a portfolio with them, or sign up as a model but pay for make ups n stuff, but at the end of the day...very few or no assignments are given to u to make any profits. But anyways, I juz went to the interview and the interviewer said I look like a Hong Kong star upon seeing my makeover photos, which? She can't remember her name. Tsk tsk. She told me, she is lookin for bridal wear models and that will be what she have in mind for me if I join them BUT of course, I have to...Make a Portfolio and Comm card. Also, if there are assignments, 70% of the salary goes to me n the remainin 30% will be theirs. She quoted the prices for 3 dress change, 36 photos is $388 or 2 dress change, 24 photos is $288. Pffftt...I do not even have enough money to pay for my insurance, how the heck am I to raise such an amount? So I told her, I have to consider first and she gave me till Tuesday to get back to her.


After the interview, I bugged Dee further! Heh I can't help it, i AM interested cos hey how often do i get to be approached to be a Model?? Never before tis, it is like a once in a lifetime offer. Dee told me that, if I do not have money now, I could try & ask the agency to make my portfolio & comm card and work for them for free till the amt is raised. Wow...that sounds really appealin to me, then many Qs came to my mind. Do i have a sellable face that people actually wanna sign me up to don their dresses/promote their products? And how many assignments will i get, can i actually cover the initial input & actually make profit out of tis?? And if the agency agree to my terms, wat kind of assignments are there? Prospects? And the worst thing is, wat if the agency is juz out to grab my money?? hmmm...Tis kinda Qs cannot be answered till I put myself in the waters & see it for my own self. It's so risky yet so temptin .


Hmm come to think of it, why am i worryin over tis? I mean, I should ask the lady first if she is willing to the terms that Dee suggested. If she rejects it, then...isn't it such a waste of my time worryin over uncertainties? Silly me! Hmmm but i'd like to try & be a model , though it has never been in my "what i wanna be When i Grow Up?" list. Arghhh...so to be or not to be? Hmmmmmmmmm.....


 


P/S: got some new pics uploaded in my Phuket trip album, finally got pics of the rock structures that i have mentioned abt. haha that place made me feel like a bikini model. love it!

Happy ACES Day & Teachers' Day!

I had a really early start today. Woke up at 6.15am,my dad was kinda shocked that i was ironin my clothes earlier than him. I told him I gotta be at Khatib by 7.30am and it's for ACES(All Children Exercise S??dunno wat S stands for) day! For some of us here, ACES day was all abt the Great Singapore Workout rite? But let me update u guys, the system has changed! Primary school students now have Hip Hop & Kickboxing workshops!! How cool is that??


Anyways I was late and I kept picturing myself gettin into a panic frenzy when I join the rest of the instructors at the carpark or somethin. In my head..."Oh dear, I'm gonna screw up..Urgghhh Nooo" but thank God when I arrived, I realised the rest of the assistant instructors also did not know the routines. And that the ACES day thingy will be done in the Hall. And I was in time for the thingy. Phew...BUT then, it was announced that I will be assistin the Lead instructor ON stage in front of the children, right from Pri 1 to Pri 6 & their teachers!!! I'm a DEMONSTRATOR!! Goood God!!!!So SCARY ok....So many EYES on me, i do not have experience dancin Hip Hop & i am such a BOO BoO Queen!!!


Amidst the amountin madness that's takin place in my head, i had a lil flashback of myself...wayyy back in Sec 3 or 4, bein propped up on the canteen table at the school carpark, also as a demonstrator but to my buncha schoolmates, i remembered it was scary at first but i had a fun time...So i psyched myself up earlier"Don't Worry abt the steps, they'll fall in place...Let's juz Have Fun!"


So when i got on stage and looked down at the sea of students...I SMILED..it soo helped...tis curve thing always straighten things out! In no time, I was juz movin along, findin my confidence & comfort in the music despite my paranoia. it was quite a struggle but it all went pretty well for the Hip Hop section except for the last bit where the footwork was a lil foreign to me... the teachers wanted us to do a lil performance for the children with the steps we taught them so I juz whacked my own freestyle...ahaha i wonder how the heck did i look like?!?!! felt kinda pressured in between two experienced GUY instructors but was happy with my lil jiggy. Who cares, maybe no one was payin attention to me anyway!


Then came my favourite part...Kickboxing! Yeah!! Missed kickboxing aka Body Combat aka Cardio Combat! My Favourite Cardio workout! The Lead instructor re-introduced us and the children actually remembered my name when asked if they recall each of our names. Wheeee~


Tis part was juz a mere 30 min compared to an hour of Hip Hop! No fair!!! But I had a good time sweatin it out...altho i kinda made mistakes with my punches, arghhh RUSTY already...BUT it was ok i guess, the children were fast at gettin the steps right and they were a delightful bunch, well with just a few unethusiastic individuals. At the end of the session, the children were lookin all happy & were wavin at us as they made their way back to their classes.


What a wonderful learnin experience and good workout! And today, i finally met Eidza face to face instead of seein her in her headshot & Jez's photo albums in Multiply. I thought she looked kinda fierce but in reality, she's really sweet & friendly lah! Hehehe...hey Eidza, thanx for keepin us hydrated eh & nice meetin u


ok i'm not sure how many teachers there are in my contact list but hey,


HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY & Have a WELL-DESERVED HOLIDAY !!!
