Chocolates that are sweet to the last bite.. for some ppl that is.. which brings us to the topic of sex.. i happen to browse through friendster profiles last saturday and i found most amazing ppl! firstly, there were girls who say, i love sex and everything to do with it.. don’t try to pick me up, if ur hot, i will pick you up.. den there are others who say if u wanna have sex with me, just reload my phone and i will call you to set the place and time. WHAT? we all know a lot of people are kinky and horny, but its MALAYSIA! 98% of these ppl dont admit that they are… admit it! you don’t want other of your friends to see you online saying that you are looking for sex partners, especially girls… its just so NOT malaysian to do such a thing.. but hey, we also got to admit that this is why we have rape and sodomy and those sort of things, coz ppl cant control themselves.. and they cannot express themselves.. but i do know there are places that you can pick up chicks or pay for sex.. but do ppl go to this kind of places? well.. i guess those that can afford it do.. its hard nowadays to share sexual secrets with ppl! how nice if someone you trust were to tell you, hey let’s have an open conversation about sex… then its all kept secret after that.. fortunately, some ppl find nice gf’s or wives who are competent to that.. but what if you got a timid partner? hmmmm… the big question is, is one comfortable with sharing secrets and open conversations with close friends? im pretty sure i dont mind.. its secrets after all.. but i guess Malaysians will after all be Malaysians.. sometimes brave enough to say it in the open that they are open minded and up for open conversations, but how many live up to it? remains quite a big question mark!chocolates anyone?

While we all sing Auld Lang Syne this coming December, i’d prefer to take some time to flash back d beautiful things that happen to me in 2006. That’s the problem with us humans u see, we always look at d bad things that happened in our lives.. but we never appreciate d good things. I always believe that all things happen for a reason. Hoobastank said "and the reason is you" which means yes, how u inteprate your problem is purely u! In Months of 2006 , this is what has happened in my sweet life.

January : A new year, a new beginning…

Feburary: Valentines Day, played my first Open Mic Session in Backyard Pub

March: Picture above, Sherman, Gerard and Raymond were fantastically kind enough to drop by malacca on my birthday and do a Malacca Music Festival Gig in Bamboo Hut with me.. Fantastic bunch of friends i tell you… they’re the best..

April: Was posted to Yemen for a week.. Fantastic place..met fantastic ppl as well.. memories of Shamshul and Datin Dalilah from Tourism Malaysia, Edi, the Charge d Affairs of the Malaysian Embassy there, Natalie and the band from Taj Sheba Hotel, Aynoor from Petronas Yemen.. all these are ppl that were the best when i was there.. they took care of me like the’ve known me for ages.

May: Was in One in a Million competition for over a week before i got kicked out trying to sing Mungkin Nanti, a song i’ve never sung before.. i admit.. i deserved to be kicked out after that awfull render of that song.. nevertheless, i’ve met other fantastic vocalists and musicians like Cindy, Alif, Faizal, Phyne Ballerz, Joshua.. and countless more.. Musicians are all a good bunch of people..

June: Did some events this month and got to know some girl from university.. really sweet.. and by the end of the month, i was saying.. hey i’ll call you tonight k?

July: Found the love of my life…

August: Followed Gerard, Sherman & Raymond to the Singapore Waterfront Country & western Gig @ the esplanade. They were doing a gig with Paul Ponnudorai and i was the video and cameraman.. Fantastic experience.. again, the boys were wonderful.. me n my evil twin brother had many laughs and much good food.. oh yah.. 20th August was a good day as well.. haha and only i know why!

September: Got my first FULL pay after being paid lowly for a year due to my scholarship bonding.. earning bigger money now, but repaying CARD debts.. LIFE!

October: CULTURE SHOCK! my prom, after 3 years of not organizing one, came back with a bang… fantastic event.. could have been better.. learnt my mistakes and next year’s will definitely be more intriguing!

November: Cousin from Singapore got married..and i played at the wedding.. typical for family functions now.. but hey.. i do enjoy playing music.. so what the heck! happy for them though..sweet couple.. my grand uncle and grand aunty finally has hopes of becoming grandparents.. also, my darling sister found out that i was gonna be an uncle next year.. how scary..

December: DIGI Street Blast gave me the most blasting time.. i organized 30 students as troopers for the event… binary was d co-organizer… played on stage alongside Rappers and bands from Astro Blast Off.. i came in Second.. not too bad.. acted as monkey on stage and i won a SONY Xplode CAR STEREO worth RM 1600. Cool.. Christmas will be rather quiet as i will be spending time with family n my wife at Bukit Tinggi but New Years Eve will definitely be a blast as i take my final holidays for the year and spend them back home….

2007 HERE I COME!………………………

That’s the same old me.. playing where you’re not getting paid.. guess im not that good of a musician after all.. not versatile enuff.. sad but at least this time i got to play under a full set of professional sound… pretty kewl.. soundman was nice.. emcee hani was sweet as well.. and hell knows what i was doing on stage.. had a couple of chivas shots off stage.. it makes your voice go into a totally higher range you know… and that’s where i did my render of Stand By me, What’s Up and Suzy Q. I was up against bands who competed in the season 2 battle of the bands and also rap musicians.. it was pretty fun..and after all, i did take second place at the end of the day..so it was all good! the prizes were pretty normal actually..some radioactive stuff, and some premium items..but what was most important was that i enjoyed myself on stage and when i saw others enjoying my music.. that’s the best thing a musician can ever ask for.. well.. that’s me at least.. that’s why i love to sing and play..so that ppl can feel my music..feel what im playing.. and when someone comes to tell you that "hey, nice render out there" you’ll just be a bit snobbish and say "nah it was nothing..thanks anyway" but deep inside ur heart, u know u feel good.. its in the blood.. music is

Last week was a BLASTING experience for both me and my youth ambassadors.. we helped organize the 2006 DIGI Street Blast at Low Yat Plaza KL.. Tiring? of course… i worked from 8 in the morning till 11.30 PM.. my legs were giving way… then of course i consolidated myself by going to dinner at my favourite Kok Kok Restaurant at Jalan Pudu… To my dismay, after dinner, my car wouldn’t start.. CHLOE was giving me problems.. start start cannot start.. thank god i saw a sticker on my car that says call us if your car breaks down.. i dont even know what it is but i called… it semms my insurance plan actually covers the AAM kind of thing.. and in 20 minutes a van arrived and a funny short chinese guy came down and said.. what’s wrong.. so i said my car would not start.. he then takes a battery out of his van and tries to restart my car. still CANNOT! imagine my agony when he told me that my damm bloody Timing Belt Broke.. "learn a lesson ppl, if your timing belt breaks, everything else in your engine is a gonner" so change your timing belt every 90000 KM’s… Anyway, he had to get his friend to come tow my car back to shermaine’s house.. thats where i spent my night "hihi"… then the next day i had to get my car towed again to the workshop… and the mechanic said.. i die also dont believe 86000KM timing belt can break.. he tried on a battery and my car was as good as new.. asswipe short chinese man! put me into such agony.. did not want to complaint to my insurance company as then someday my car might get towed for no reason.. now, that’s what i call and eventfull day! However, the picture up there is a picture of me and my crew with Gary Cao, Malaysia’s Chinese Hit Sensation… he’s a damm goood singer… well, i am one too but hey, at least he got fans.. "_
