Ondeh-ondeh love


These green balls coated in coconut with brown sugar as it's inti(center in blue tray) made me giggle like a little school girl when i popped one into my mouth. Coz the moment you take a bite, the brown sugar bursts all over walls of your mouth. I couldn't stop throwing in balls after balls just to feel the excitement when it bursts. You'll probably think why am i talking about kuih right now? Coz it's pasar Ramadhan season with fasting month back for the Islams. So we each had to check out 2 bazaars.

1Malaysia or not? 15Malaysia short films

15Malaysia
Yea yea it's Merdeka month so you're ought to be patriotic. All this buzz about 1Malaysia, but don't know if you've heard about 15Malaysia. It's 15 short films made by 15 film makers including the late Yasmin Ahmad, Ho Yuhang of Rain Dogs fame, Liew Seng Tat, Nam Ron, Suleiman Brothers and many more. 15Malaysia is a project made successful by singer songwriter Pete Teo and the team behind Malaysian Artistes For Unity (MAFU)-'Here in My Home'. Similar to the anti-racism song and music video Here In My Home, 15Malaysia highlights socio-political issues in Malaysia from corruption to Islamic banking to freedom of expression to the Mat Rempit phenomenon and even halal cooking. These 15 short films are released accordingly one each day on their website www.15malaysia.com and it's available for download by the public for free.

So far only 2 of the short films have been released, Potong Saga by Ho Yuhang featuring the infamous Namewee and Chocolate by Yasmin Ahmad featuring of course her favourite cheeky actress Sharifah Amani. Oh you can also add your own Malaysian related videos on the site. Log on to the website to check it out now!

I still have sore soles and sole-sores




I love how my title can be turned into a tongue twister haha.
Yea the last post I've only got picture from 2 acts up. So I gotta cover AAR, Hoobastank and etc. I'd post up videos but the are all of very very bad quality taken with my camera phone from miles away boohoo =(
Glitter-soaked Tyson screaming an orgasmic oh yeeeaaaahhh through out the set. And also their 'I wanna.... I wanna I wanna touch you' latest single. Can you say queer?

On the way to World Stage I was already thinking if they will play Swing, Swing and Dirty Little Secret coz these both are really old. I was practically jumping for joy when the chords were played and then Tyson started doing his awesone stage antics.

Hoobah! Hoobah! Loved their enigmatic set!
You guys want something to sing along to? Ok now........
(Ghostbuster tune and starts singing)

"If there's something strange
in your neighborhood
Who ya gonna call?"

audience: GHOSTBUSTERS!!!

(music stops)

You guys are ridiculous hahahaha

Oh oh and here's my exclusive collection of Raygun during my interview with them mmm bliss. They will be as famous as Coldplay somewhere in the future and I have this to brag about. I started listening to them when they were newcomers, did an interview with them, snippety snap candids and etc.

Say Em Tee Wheeeeee!!! World Stage! woot woot~

Hahahahahaaa!!! KLue sent me there. Just like Sarah, my events editor said 'usually I'll just sit and wait somehow there sure will be some extra tickets on the very last day.' So yea Joyce and I had the chance to go. She was nice enough to give me her share of the ticket so I'll have one pair, just enough to bring the airplane boy together with me =)
We took our own time to get there even it says on the ticket registration (what registration?you mean queuing up at the entrance?) starts at 3.30pm. Got to the entrance near Starbucks at 5.45pm, there were no line nothing at all for the RED zone so we decided to go chomp down some Carl's Jr.
Finally got into the 'pool' at about 6.15-6.30pm after a super long walk all the way in. I was so freaking worried they might confiscate my huge ass dslr coz it says on the back of the ticket no camera and video recorders or any other recording devices allowed. The security was shitty I'd have to say seeing it's an MTV event. Anyone in the theme park could have gotten access to the wave pool/ stage area. Estranged was the first act which we didn't bother much, such posers I hate the vocalist trying to be all cool with his hoodie covered 3/4 of his face. Raygun was the second act(or was it third? after Boys likes Girls?) but before that Utt and Denise/Taya (MTV Vjs) came out and talk a whole lot of crap before introducing them on stage. I'm so thankful I had the chance to interview this new British band that caused some controversy a week or so back regarding on their influence on music. I'll upload a picture of me and the band and might just spill some beans here in the next post. Though they are so new but geeezzz they really have stage presence and knew how to interact with the crowd. So what not everyone was singing along to their songs, at least people were grooving to their(yea I used the word groove, coz their genre is all about 70s-80s a cross between David Bowie, James Brown that era or rock and roll) psychedelic tunes! Omg! Ray, the vocalist is so cute and his mesmerizing pair of blue-ish eyes.

Next up was Pixie Lott, the seductive British songstress. She was so blonde I think her hair color, dress and skin tone match! Well, every heterosexual male and some female were screaming for her when she came out. And of course everyone was singing to her first single, 'Mama Do' not too sure about the rest coz she is very new after all. I still say she's a Duffy impersonator/wannabe hmm.....
(saving and posting it now before my stolen-connection dies off. will update more on Hoobastank and All American Rejects in the next post stay tuned.)

Whhhheeeee!!! Me want MTV World Stage passes!!!! Please send me to cover the event and I promise to be a good girl at work not like I have been lazing around in the office okayyy. It's only week one and I've been very progressive and efficient getting all my work done way before deadline. Will update about KLue in next entry not here. So bring me to MTV WS!!!!!! Pretty pleeeeeaaassseeeee coz this is like event of the year man! Why Malaysia not Singapore right? Coz Malaysia is cool like that hah! I hope they don't start banning whichever female artists who dress skimply. And also no shirt-off males *hinthint Pharell of N*E*R*D. Oh well, it's Malaysia after all and we are celebrating Merdeka(Independence Day) this month! Wooohoooo!!!
........Tanggal tiga puluh satu..... Merdeka merdeka merdeka
However the lyrics go laaaaaa......

So yeaaaaa MTV World Stage pases please =) I didn't win on fb when KLue had their contest(before I joined the team) right now it's my opportunity to be there or be square! Here are a few expecting acts that I'm going to googooogaga about:

Pixie Lott, Duffy lookalike but is way better than her and I think she's only freaking 18 like doubleyouteeeff right?!!! Can you say H-A-W-T British Blonde?


Raygun, British band to look out for besides Kasabian. Newbie but a definite burning track. There is a short clip here though but I think we can watch the video on TV or maybe it isn't available yet coz I can't seem to find any videos of it on youtube.


And lastly, of course AAR the star of the show!!! I bet 90% of the people are there just to watch them and not any other acts. Hmmm I Wanna was out way back in end of 2008 but I don't know why it only came to our radiowave recently. Weird coz usually American bands have their song played first in other countries not their own. Less competition from other American bands of similar style.


Local acts like Estranged will be playing too and many others to be announced. Bring me there!!!! 15th August at Sunway Lagoon Surf Beach, apparently they are gonna empty the man-made wave pool to turn it into a stage. *****Fingers crossed*****
