of singers and songwriters

my boyfriend and i were at kl urbanscapes the other day and we were watching the acoustic liveshow of mia palencia(she's a local artiste fyi) and we were planning to leave right after. Then the presentor got on stage and was ranting about the next artiste, yuna...whom he described as very talented and when he first heard her, he almost cried. curious to see whom this uber talented girl was, we stayed. yuna, got up on the stage with her guitar, clad in a tudung(head dress) and tee and what not, took just one minute to introduce herself and started playing right after. once the first line of the first song she was playing was sung, my boyfriend and i were mesmerised by her voice. it had this calm to it and this raspiness....and it was...amazing. we sat throughout her entire 5 songs(and additional 1 as the crowd asked fr an encore). she's somewhat like a malaysian corrine bailey rae crossed with meiko, with an edge. it's nice to see that the malaysian music scene has evolved and i'm very happy that theres an abundace of talent in today's young malaysian artists.

Snippets from UGS gathering 24 May 2008

Over dinner at Pizza Hut:

Ced: Hey Sean, you can come over and join us, we talk about intellectual topics *cocks eyebrow and grins*

Horng Eng, Former Head Girl of her school in Form 6: I want to be a No-One in uni

Daniel hacks vigorously into pizza with the pizza-cutter,
Wen Qi: Future dentist! *grins*



At Ced's place:

Ced: Is the photo of me as a nerd still there? *Grabs framed photo of a younger, bespectacled Ced on the piano and hides*



Playing Taboo:

Someone: Hot guys…
Daniel: Gay

Zhe Rong: This is the character of bla bla bla in Bleach….
Joshua: Gin!
Ced: And how many people actually do watch Bleach?
*Zhe Rong, Joshua, Sam raises hands*

It was a Taboo game unlike any other we had thus far. There was boy and boy, whispers, stiffies, boy and boy on honeymoon, dominatrix, boy and another boy on date, touchdown, negligee..... Oh yeaaaa



Group photo time:

Sam: Sounds like a bomb detonator (referring to her new Canon dSLR set on self-timer)
Camera proceeds to take three photos in succession, crowd stares in awe
Repeats, in faster succession on second time
Ced: Okay, let’s do crazy shots
Laughter ensues as crowd attempts to change poses in split seconds

Thus ends this post with no photos because... the photos are with Sam, bug her for photos. So, yea, use your imagination. Imagine.... ^.^

Maiden post :FAIL IS TEH NEW WINZ.

According to Wikipedia: Failure (fail, phail or flop) in general refers to the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective. It may be viewed as the opposite of success.



Do you know why human is known as the greatest creation of god?



Because the way human fail themselves is so GODLY, its actually looks...BRILLIANT. Our ability to fail in every single field, profession and practically EVERYTHING is a WIN for us human!!!!

(heck, the fact that we spend our time finding stupid pictures and captioning FAIL on it can be considered as a FAIL...or WIN depends on how you look at it. Enjoying humor however, THAT'S DEFINITELY A WIN.)

All FAILS are courtesy of Failblog and English Fail.











Ps: Initially I was thinking of posting a more useful and intelligent post...to start my maiden post like this can be considered as FAIL and WIN at the same time. So people, izzit a FAIL or a WIN?
