and the time has arrived...


after months of rehearsing, now the time has arrived for the istana budaya concert. the king and queen of rock will be on the stage for the opening show tonight. only six show! from 12th to 15th of january, they will 'bring the house down'! okay, not literally, or we will have a problem with istana budaya... hahaha... i was at the istana budaya yesterday for their rehearsals, and let me tell you, goosebumps!

i know that this is the rock concert, but let me remind you that the place is still istana budaya, and for you who've bought the tickets, don't forget to obey the rules and regulations of istana budaya (no round-neck t-shirt, no slippers or torn jeans etc) nanti tak boleh masuk, jangan cakap you guys have not been warned! macam polis pulak! hahahaha

if you haven't got your ticket yet (you have to buy, of course!) get it now. i've seen the sitting maps, and every night is almost full, so you better hurry! i can assure you that this is not going to be like any other normal concert. they have gorgeous stage and there will be some spectacular lighting display etc, and of course, who can forget the real deal, ella and awie! and they have the longest medley ever!

so, i see you guys at istana budaya... hhmm.. i've been in istana budaya the same date last year... deja-vu!

sometimes, all we ever need is...


there were two birthday celebrations last week. both of a person who are equally important to me in their own way. jauza, diddy and ellen's beautiful daughter, was born on the 3rd of january last year.  it was during one of the busiest period for diddy - the final stage of rehearsing 'terima kasih cinta' the musical (which we haven't got the full payment until today!), and of course it was also during his final exam for his third semester, and the most important one, ellen was in her final days of pregnancy...

nadra aryssa jauza! such a gorgeous girl, who brought so much joy to the young parents and the people around her. now, she's one year old. she dances when she heard the beats, she talks a lot *but of course no one can understand her just yet*, flashes her beautiful smiles and just warmth everyone's heart with her presence!  


another gorgeous girl who celebrated her birthday last week was misha omar.  i've known misha and her sister mimie for quite some time.  but before, i was more like a fan. things changed when diddy and misha had a show together in gelang patah, johor, back in 2008 for harian metro. i remember that day like it was yesterday.  it was the large area to perform but the sound system was not meant for it.  the singers were not able to walk away from the stage to greet the fans as the microphone could not pick up the sound. it was quite horrible, actually, because the stage was considerably far from the crowd.

but mimie brought her own sound engineer and microphone for misha, true to her standard as a songbird of malaysia, of course! the thing that struck me the most was how they were willing to share misha's rm12,000 microphone with diddy, a relatively new comer at that time. it was not something cheap like sharing a bowl of noodle or something. it was a grand gesture! when someone trusted you with their special possession, it shows how sincere they are.  i could not explain how i felt but one thing for sure, i know i can trust them. and we became close from then onwards...

so again, happy birthdays jauza and misha... 

some times, all we ever need is love... something that money can't buy...

and the week end is here...


i've had a busy week. including today. but i enjoy every minute of it. from my normal jobs and usual chores, to spontaneous dinners and meeting friends... it's everything that i'm looking forward to on daily basis. school registration and routines, birthday celebrations, preparing quotations, meeting up with clients, designer, scheduling, tv interviews, magazine photo shoots, watching movies, dinners, catching up with friends, weddings and everything... love it!

but above all that, i can't help myself feeling lonely. i've been there almost all my life, so i guess it isn't that bad. like i said before, this year, i'm going to chill and enjoy the ride. all i need to do is to focus on what's important and things that really matters. and try to be happy with choices that i have made, and going to make. making the best of everything, every time... my motto: eat, pray, love! hahaha!

and now the week end is here... i'm hoping for a great time... no dramas! just pure fun!

owh, and if you have nothing to do and no where to go this weekend, don't forget to put your channel on astro 180, saturday at 8.30pm. kampus the musical series is on!

next week, another round of busy week, and i am so looking forward to it! have a blast weekend everyone...

2012... what do i do?


it has been so long since i updated my blog. 2011 hhmmm... i don't really know how to describe it, but i'm still grateful... and i'm still standing... so i guess it was not that bad... syukur, Alhamdulillah. in my 40s, i've experienced so many new things in 2011. all of which, i have to say very interesting. i took everything, even a single minor details as part of the journey. i have no regrets, maybe some doubts but no regrets... none!

i don't have any new year resolutions. but, i'm trying to keep my promise, any promises that i've made or going to make to myself. i think that is very important. and i'm still going to dream big, and see where it will takes me... and i'm still going to work as hard as if i'm still in my 30s... i'm going to love more, as much as my heart can give.

so, 2012... what do i do? i'm going to chill and enjoy the ride...
