Crraaaawwllll.....

Nothing much happening lately... I'm typing while trying to tahan this awful cold I suddenly got. Phew~ Whole body is aching (after-effect of the bowling tournament... 4 games was fun, but sure ached!)... sure hope my lil munchkin is ok. She's young and not used to it, worried she might be aching too...

Cari Present
Went to KLCC to get something for my bro, who's birthday is today... Got him a double-CD compilation of evergreen hits from Tower... hope he likes it. Thought of getting a Chinese or Japanese compilation, but aftraid he'd lose interest fast. Had it wrapped and headed to the bookshop near Cold Storage and bought a copy of Max Power, which was sold at a fraction of the mad price at Sungei Wang. Hehe... had a drink and started home. Got caught in another crawl... haih...

Spotlight on Delia Arnold
I guess a lotta people haven't notice this cute 20-year old National squash player much. But I have... hee hee (Ask Val and she'll go nuts! Hahaha... Gosh I really miss her...) She's an up-and-coming star, although most of the time she's just in the shadows of Nicol David, which is understandable since the former is the world No.1 and she is quite some places behind... But I was pretty excited when I read the news today. In the Asian Squash Championships at the Taipei Big-Egg Dome yesterday, she did pretty fine indeed, handing Sri Lanka’ Kushani Daluwate a 9-0, 9-0, 9-0 whitewash en route to the second round. I'm not too sure whether she improved tremendously or was her opponent weaker, but that's one score to be proud of. Hope to hear more from this cute player...


Crawl-Crawl-Crawlllll....
Sigh... what's with KL and all these crawls! Aaarrrggghhh!!!! This morning had to pass the usual Puchong-Sunway crawl, then after passing it, got stuck a bit after filling up petrol at a Shell station midway. Then passed through, U-turned and went to Taman Tun, had to go to Bumiputera Commerce to put in the money in for the Inter-Forum Tournament. Payments for both the Farahnatics and Pinkies. After that I headed to work. Got stuck in another horrendous jam from Taman Tun to Bangsar. I skipped Bangsar altogether and took the route to KL. Which was jammed too, but not as bad... reached here finally, tired and all.

OK, better stop blabbering bout jams and start doin work,

PEACE and God Bless,

Shock: Ting Ling was Voted Out & Bowling Update

We're still proud of you, Ting Ling!
Ting Ling has just been voted out of Project Superstar last night, making lots of friends and fans sad... Many agreed she didn't deserve to be voted out as she was definitely not the worst. But sigh, this is reality TV. Remember what happened to Farah? I actually watched this show because of her... well, I do agree some of the others do have potential, especially that girl Kinki. But oh well, what's done's done. Wonder who's gonna get the title...



Ting Ling, if you're reading this, dun feel sad k. Smile, like you always do, we're still so proud of you for getting this far. I hope your dreams won't fade away now, reach for the sky, the stars and the moon... We'll be right behind you, giving you that extra push dear. All the best and take care!

Bowling @ 1Utama
Yesterday we had an excellent mini bowling tournament among the Farahnatics and Pinkies (Daniel Fan Club). It was a superb event. I went there early, because I promised to go eat sushi with my pet sis Myn. Fetched her from her home, her sis couldn't be around (had some stuff to do with RTM, something to do with hafal-ing 5 songs for her next show). So I became big bro and had to take care of my lil sis. Sushi was nice, Ostro joined us too... After makan we headed to U-Bowl. Ulee and Estravada was there, and also Auntie Salbiah. Met Mart3eighteen there too... 1st time. Hehe... Saw Teng, Yumi, and gang too... We were eventually joined by Arjuna and sisters, LeOn, Priest and Zharif.

At first Myn didn't wanna play, but I pujuk her to play. She was so cute, trying to find a suitable ball. Settled with a pink 8 ball. She almost hurt herself with a pink 14 ball, not knowing it was that heavy, she took it and it slipped off her hands. The holes were big and her fingers were tiny. You get the idea... Sort of guided her to play, along with Estravada and Ulee. She wasn't that good at 1st, but eventually got better. We played 2 games to determine the Top-4 for selection. The Top-4 then went to challenge the Pinkies' Top-4. I dunno what happened, but some of them didn't get to maintain their strong play. Hehe... but it's all in the name of fun. I was pretty inconsistent, if I could improve on my constant mistake of letting go at the wrong angle I could do better. Eventually frustrated with just watching, me, Myn and Ulee paid for another 2 games. Not that we're that good...hehe... but for the 1st game, I played real bad, Myn matched my score of 78. So proud of her... hee hee. For some odd reason, I could score well for the last game... hahaha... 100-plus... Eventually the Pinkies won by a small margin. But the two clubs are such sporting and friendly people, cheering for both. It's nice to know that like Farah and Daniel, their supporters are also friends. Everyone had a blast, there were lots of laughter, smiles and fun. I kinda injusred my knee in a silly accident. Was playing with Myn to get one of those pics below, and hit a really sharp-edged table. OOuch... hurts even till now... Overall it was a superb game, and we look forward to the 5th of March for the Inter-Fanclub Tournament. There's also a lil game I was planning with Myn... hee hee... Oh ya, brought her to A&W for a lil waffle. She denied wanting it, when I could see she wanted it... Such a darling. Had some floats too, before I sent her back home. Dropped Ulee at the LRT too on the way back. It was pretty tiring, but so great!











Ok, gotta go do work, till next time,

PEACE and God Bless,

Tired but Excited...

Finished Work Early!
Amazingly, we managed to finish work fast... bout 4-plus we were all done! I surfed the web as well as checked my emails and forum as usual before going back. I can't leave the office that soon cos I had a date with Jess later on in the day. So I went to Mid Valley Megamall... just walking around, bought a mag... nothin much... went to Bangsar and tried to waste some more time. Then Jess smsed, saying she's home... a lil earlier than expected. So I started making my way to her place. Took a wrong turn... haha... so got a lil lost before reaching.

Tired but fun...It was really nice to meet her after so long. I dunno, but I feel she gets prettier each time I meet her. Haha... and her outfit was really cool, although she says it's very normal. Hmm... We were to go to S&M near Petaling Street, because she wanted to look for Kenshin posters (she's a newfound anime fan)... There was some real heavy traffic at that area, but we got through. Parked at S&M, which was so dark and scary. I told her never to got there alone... God knows what characters might lurk. Told her dun worry, I'm here (unconvincing sense of security)... haha... Came across CK, not sure where he was going, but it was a bit of a surprise to find him there. He walked by, I said hi to him, and he thought me and Jess going pak toh! OmG... He went off before I could fully explain.

Oh well... went to a number of shops there, couldn't find the poster for Jess... poor thing... Told her we'll try another location on another outing. I bought a DVD of My-HIME for RM29.90! WooHoo~ Haven't watched, but I sure do hope it's of good quality...

Walked along the streets near Petaling Street... Jess said she just liked the feeling of walking there at night. Maybe because it was cooling... and busy? Hee hee... Had Nando's after that for dinner. Had some long chit chat, bout things that we've gone though. Well, Jess is so cool... she can just read my mind. She hit spot on what I'm going through and even gave me some suggestions. So sweet... But yeah, like she said, it's easier to advise people than to take your own advice. I find that quite true. Had some further chats in the car on the way back, and she also looked at a number of pages of Malaysian Today as well as one of my photo albums. Hee hee... Sent her home, waved byes as she got through her gate. She mentioned bout our next meet up in 3 months, but I sure do hope it's sooner than that! :D

PEACE and God Bless,

Superstar Mania

Went to Sri Pentas 2 to catch Project Superstar's recording there... Thanks to yumi for getting me a pass. It was rather last minute, but I decided to go... Then came the most massive jam I have EVER seen on the highways... my goodness... it was so bad... I left the office like 6.35-6.40pm... arrived at SP2 about 9-plus pm. Phew... I got a pleasant surprise when I saw Annie, Kelly, Ethan and gang there... (they were surprised too!) and guess what, they were with Ting Ling banners and boards! OmG! I was so excited... cos they were so well designed, and looked really professional. Came in a set, with the LARGEST banner in the whole studio. Well Ting Ling, that's what happens when you have designers as friends; a whole battalion of well-designed support. She sang really sweet... although I didn't understand a single word, from the singing, to the host (which I find rather annoying), the narrator and the judges... I only caught the names... and cheered whenever they did. I'm not that good in judging chinese singing, but I can say Ting Ling has rather tough competition... The girls are rather good, and they have rather solid support. Ting Ling's singing was nice to me, and she looked like a star already... it's like so cool, she summore being so girl-next-door in college, now she's singing... whoa! Too bad I didn't get to see her in person. I had to send Yumi home before 12midnight... Miss meeting her after so long. It's so hard ever since I started working... even Kelly, it's the 1st time I met her in person for almost a year!... Well, I'll do my best in my part then.

Go go Ting Ling!



That's all for today I guess... can't think of anything else... haha...

PEACE and God Bless,

V's

V's DayAnother year's Valentine's Day came and went... nothing much to shout about. Well, sure, I did ajak a number of people out, one of them had plans with her friends, so I guess it's ok. Oh ya, Myn's feeling better already... my poor lil munchkin pet-sis is still down with fever, but hopes to go to school today. Hope she takes care... she's so cute, saying she's missing me and all. Hope to meet up at this weekend's bowling. Another fren had to go back due to being tired. Well, with most friends working there wasn't much else that could be done. But either way, it's just a day. I can always ask them out any other day. Hehe... So I just continued with work... which was really hectic. Anyways, Val's still off, so I couldn't ajak her for dinner either. Luckily I managed to join the family for mamak at night. Hee hee... Nothing like piping-hot roti bom and mutton curry. Woohoo... And surprise of surprise, Mahbub has FRIED ICE CREAM! OmG... I love it! It was pretty good, you can even hold it... So that was my yummy Valentine's Day. At least it's better than going to Times Square alone like last year. Watching all the couples there is pure torture, trust me... Happy Valentine's, people!

What the...Ok, this made me pretty mad. The 155's tail lights were perfectly fine on Sunday when we went to Dataran. I didn't drive it on Monday as I took the Bug. Now on Tuesday, I drove it, and when I was at a shop, I looked at the rear, and got a shock. A broken tail light! WTF... sigh... there was a crack almost the size of your palm, and a hole in the middle. There was a slight gash to the bodywork too, which shows something or someone hit it. I dunno who did it, but not telling me is seriously irresponsible. Not to mention how much would it possibly cost to replace this Italian-made tail light! Sigh!!! Bought some tape and covered it up for now. Just in case water seeps in. Might go to the shop this Saturday. But then again there's the lil bowling tournament... hmm...



Banner - The Aftermath
Here's the banner after it's all dried up. It doesn't look like much, but trust me, it's flimsy, the 3D words are all bent, the flat ones wrinkled and peeling, and Farah's pic well... the pictures explain everything right? Will repair soon...




Okla, that's all for today... wanted to talk more rubbish, but forgot what was it all about... hehe...

PEACE and God Bless,
