Whoa CNY~!!!

Yahoo~ it's that time of the year where we get all happy, with family reunions, yummy food and lotsa-lotsa mandarin oranges everywhere! I love Chinese New Year~

Mandarins Invade Office!
Yup, the office was bombarded by tonnes and tonnes of mandarins! We were practically having mandarins for the whole week! They came in all shapes and sizes, from big to small, sour to sweet... hehe... it was a lotta fun~

BoA Conquers Nike KLCC
Yup, I went to Nike at Suria KLCC to admire the BoA decorations there... she's more strategically placed there compared to MidValley, which I admit placed her in a blind spot (unless you went inside). She looks simply gorgeous in these posters~

Pre-New Year Movie
We decided to go out for an all-cousins movie on new year eve... come to think about it, it was pretty cool... not all the cousins were in it, but was fun nevertheless. Went in two cars, due to not being able to fit us all in a single vehicle...

There was an accident near our area on the way... and NO, we didn't cause it, lol... my bro was trying to get past it in this photo. The Wira collided with the side of a garbage truck. Not sure who was wrong tho~

Anyways, we went to Cineleisure Damansara... after getting the tickets, we decided to play a couple of games at the neighbouring game corner~

Dong Dong-Dong Chang!!!

Owh, we watched Norbit... goodness, this movie's so funny, it's sick! It does get pretty gross at times, but it was good entertainment. There were many times we laughed out so loud! Anyways, do watch it, and at the end, look in the credits to find out who plays Mr.Wong. Hehehe...

Ok, surprisingly we didn't take that many photos during CNY, but it was a lotta fun nevertheless... the bubble tea, the family meals, the tv shows, DVDs, outings... Everyone had a great time with lotsa family bonding... even the heavy downpour didn't dampen the new year spirit~



I'm Lovin It~
Oh ya, just before Uncle YO and family went back to Singapore, we went to McD for a meal, complete with long table and tonnes of french fries~ It was really fun...

Finally getting to listen to the tracks in crystal-clear CD quality and watch the videos in DVD quality~ woohoo!!! And there was also Music Station Super Live 2006 on Animax on CNY eve, in which we waited about an hour for BoA's performance of "Nanairo no Ashita - Brand New Beat" and upon watching it, I managed to get some relatives to be new fans of BoA!



I'm definitely flying without wings~ speaking about flying without wings, I first got to know about BoA through her rendition of "Flying Without Wings" with Westlife, at the end of 2002. There was no turning back since~



Okla, this was a nice CNY for me, will post other non-related stuff later~

PEACE and God Bless,

V's and so~

Valentine's Day
Happy belated V's Day peeps... (I was supposed to post this up yesterday, but the net was just too darn slow~) this may be a happy, sad OR nightmarish day to you, depending on how you view it. I woke up to a sweet Valentine's SMS message from Jess... what a great way to start the day~ Hehehe... hmm... for me, I was happy. I didn't have to fork out any money or anything, didn't have to worry about the day's plans nor did I have to worry about impressing anyone... like some people say, enjoy your single life while it's still there. I guess I'm pretty positive with things this year~ It was a normal day at work, watched a couple of documentaries and ends with me going home. Hope you guys had a lot more fun... hehe...

Trip to Johor
Yeah, I should have blogged about this sooner... went to Johor recently, to help my extended family move to KL. Of course, any trip to Batu Pahat means food... and we had a great time indulging in the wonderful selection of food there~

After that there was the trip back to KL... it was kinda fun because we had a convoy of 3 cars; my mum in the Perdana, my aunt in the Kancil and I managed to drive my uncle's Prelude... it was kinda interesting to drive something so low... oh, and we passed the areas hit hard by the recent floods. However at that time, they were already mostly drying up and recovering~

BoA Conquers Oricon
In true BoA fashion, she took the Oricon Charts by storm, shooting straight to number 1 and staying there for quite a while before dropping (it is currently making it's way back up the charts). This makes her one of the few elites in Japan to have 5 consecutive No.1 albums (she's ahead of heavyweights Utada Hikaru and MISIA) and has only Ayumi Hamasaki on top of her with 8 No.1 albums. This makes her officially Japan's No.2... Not bad if you ask me~

BoA Conquers WorldBoA also recently topped the World Charts with her MADE IN TWENTY (20) album... beating the likes of more popular artistes. This was said to be her 3rd time topping the World Charts, previously with Love & Honesty and also Best of Soul... Her OUTGROW managed No.2... What can I say, I'm so proud of baby BoA~

Hmm... ok, they spelled her name AND her album wrongly~

BoA Conquers Nike Malaysia
Yups, BoA is officially the embassador for Nike Women Malaysia... you can find posters, quotes and banners of her in every major Nike store now. Stepping into one of these stores can take your breath away, with her on every pillar and almost every shelf... I was starstruck~ (How I wish I could have one of those gorgeous posters...) Malaysia finally gets to know BoA. Oh how I wish wish wish she'll do a concert here like Rain... I'll be 1st in line to buy her concert tickets...

Here are the pics from the MidValley branch...

This is definitely one of the best times to be a Malaysian BoA fan~
All this despite me going to every single store asking for MADE IN TWENTY (20) and getting a "oh, belum datang" reply... Hope it comes soon~

Well, that's all for this time,

PEACE and God Bless,
Aris
