No Looking Back.. Future Is In Our Hands..

It's been a week since I arrived in KL and stayed in the condominium at Cyberjaya..

It wasn't easy to be independent.. I knew that there's a lot of peoples who wanted to have their freedom.. Freedom from family.. Freedom from studies.. Freedom for everything..

Once you started to become independent, you started to appreciate what you had last time.. It's still fine for me as I am used to living alone without family around me.. I guess camping thingys really works.. I gained experiences from all sort of camping I had joined.. It really helps a lot.. It's not as hard as it is after knowing how to take care of yourself when nobody is around you.. Besides, I had been staying in KL for one month plus when I worked with an event company at Petaling Jaya months ago.. This made me even more confident to be independent..

I chose my own road and future.. I had decided to study in Lim Kok Wing University of Creative Technology (LUCT) even if I were selected to join the Matriculation at Labuan.. Getting an entry to matriculation wasn't easy especially for Chinese.. It's definitely difficult and you need luck to get selected.. I dropped the opportunity and risked myself to study in private college..

I was unbelievable lucky as I were selected to get the Star Scholarship during working with the event company.. And that moment.. I knew that God had agreed with the choice I made by studying at the private college, LUCT..

I had attended the orientation for the whole week and it was fascinating.. You'll sure enjoy it if you join this college with me.. During the orientation, we were doing crazy stuffs which you couldn't even imagine.. We played games which made us explored the whole university and getting to know better with the ambassador.. It's so crazy that you couldn't imagine you were asked to move your butt for different alphabet..

The orientation were not the best thing of all.. The best thing was the "FRESHIE PARTY".. We were like clubbing whole night long at our condominium's plaza.. We danced, we shook, we move, we sweat.. The party really rocks.. the dancing floor was really packed with "FRESHIE"..



This is me after the party..

Of course, after the orientation and party, it'll be our study time already.. My class starts next Monday.. I am looking forward to see my lecturers and classmates.. It'll be cool..

Last but not least, I miss my family and my friends! Gosh.. Looking at the photo below makes me remind of the time they sent me to KL at the airport..



And of course, look at their faces.. They are so happy that I am leaving.. except one guy.. the happiest guy which "peace" at the last rows.. He is happy because he is coming soon to meet me here in KL!! Well.. I wish you all best of luck.. and together we strive for excellence.. I never forget this motto even if I had left our high school..

Digi Celebriteen journey continues..

FU-YOH!! Exactly! That's how I felt when I did the Digi celebriteen here in Kuching, my hometown..

Before we actually start the audition and everything, we did the promo all around the school in the city of Kuching. We distribute flyers, talked to schools' principals, briefed to the students and drove here and there. It's tiring but it's fun! Not to mention, some of the principals were funny. They sounded like a doctor and felt like they were giving us the prescription soon after we brief to them. However, there were a number of them we discouraged their student to participate the competition.

To what I am thinking, this singing competition is actually good to the students as Digi is giving out more than RM15,000 as scholarship fund to the student who manage to get the throne as the champion for Digi Celebriteen 2007. I wonder why principal discouraged it. It's students' choice to sing or not to sing but it's not principals' decision to do so. We had to gone through the principal in order to seek permission to let their students know about the competition only. Ofcourse there were supportive school as well. The teachers were in pleasure to help us inform their students about the singing competition.

Although the number of peoples who went for the auditions were not encouraging but the talented peoples were a lot. It's definitely hard to pick people from Kuching to be in the finalist. Almost everyone knows how to sing in the audition but the judges would only choose the special ones among the crowd..

I had two of my schoolmates as my colleague and few more are colleagues from West Malaysia. It happened to be that not many went for the audition at Cosmopoint therefore we were too free till we were able to catch picture as below.



And again, I took picture with Baki and Juliana again (you'll know who they were if you read previous post). They were fantastic TV host and crew.. Working together with them was my pleasure indeed.




After selecting the finalist, they'd been through some trainings sessions which I had my day off during the training sessions. The finalists were quite friendly and some of them were really talkative (not a bad sign though). I went to Lion Nursing Home together with them to do the charity visit. I was as one of the drivers to bring them there. The visiting was so-so as I think the elders didnt get entertained much. I guess going to such place should at least have some interaction with the elders.





During the reharsal, the finalist didnt perform quite well. I think they were just too nervous. However they performed perfectly on the stage during the actual competition.

During the competition, we had the roadshow as well.. I was busy doing the Fu-Yoh activation promo. I felt like I was a salesman when I actually begged people to change their call plan to Fu-Yoh call plan and gave them free gifts.

I did enjoy my work as I get to see a lot of peoples and a lot of my friends that day. The singing competition was tough. Everyone was very very GOOD! Y'all Kuching Citizenz, we ROCK!



The champion who sang "Hui Jia" by Shunza were really good. We had all expected her to win.

This is me with the 1st Runner up Jun Cheah (my friend as well).


Well, that's that.. It's time for me to get back to my studies.. I guess I have to stop working for this temporary..

Api! Api!!

Well, curious what's about it?

7th July, Kuching:
As I was working as the Digi Celebriteen crew for the audition that day, I'd encountered an exciting encounter that I had ever made. We (Digi celebriteen crew) were too bored. Not many went for the audition that day, all we'd done was wait, wait and wait.. I were thinking that the reason might be that Cosmopoint college was too "hidden" as in it's location.. People were lazy to go to Cosmopoint to do the audition because they didn't want to waste their precious time in looking for the spot..

Well, since we were bored, me and two of my colleagues went "yum cha" and we saw smoke coming out from place that wasn't far away from the cafe. The wind was too furious that time and blew the smoke to our direction.

I guess it happened that we got nothing to do and we went to see what happen. I felt like we were the "Digi Celebriteen Reporter" as we were in one car and wearing the same uniform to the burning spot.

When we reached place that was nearby to the incident, we parked our car and ran to that spot. On the way running to that burning spot, I saw long traffic jam and many peoples which was as busybody as we do. While reaching to the place of occurrence, we saw fire brigades there splashing water on the angry fire on the first floor of the building. I had to admit that the fire brigade was cool.




Many went to take photo like we did and many stood there to see the "show" while some were discussing about the incidence and make conclusion to it just like we did. We were suspecting that the company had owed some firm money so instead they burned all the documents and on top of that they can claim fire insurance as well.. No new car were burned at all.. It's like planned properly..





The funniest part was when we saw the officer of the fire brigade arrive after the fire brigades had long arrived and they only stepped in and took a look just like what we did..



Well, I guess this is how Malaysian is... After shooting some photos, we rushed back for the audition and waited for people who wanted to had their celebrity dream..

Still, in the end, nobody went for it and we packed and ran home to rest..

Nostalgia

Looking back at memorable things will definitely remind us about our past..

After coming back to Kuching for some times, I went back to my high school which I had studied for 5 years, SMK Kuching Town No.1 - The coolest school ever..

However, some things will change after long period..



My previous block during form 2, 4 and 5 had became like this just because the rage of fire happened in May. It is somehow sad because the class that I used to study had became ashes. Well, at least I can still recognize my own block..

Besides that, talking with our friendly teachers definitely makes me missed my school very much. I am really thankful to the teachers whoever taught me in the high school. Their advice, knowledge and determination are something priceless, something that no one else can get it from you.

Somehow, some notice board in the school caught my notice. I saw the Interact Club board and saw the newspaper report regarding the singing competition which was held last year by the Interact Club. Well.. I really missed the moment.. I sang a song named "Qiao Gu Niang" and were able to cheer the crowd up by some silly moves on the stage. Another was the group song by me, See Neng and Yong Fook which was named as "Tong Nian". We intentionally sang that song to make us remind of our childhood and also to sing it with pleasure only and who knows we ended up to become the champion for group category.




Well, that's some memories in the school.. I knew you have your own memories as well.. Memories are always memorable to us.. We should keep it in our heart and our mind from time to time.. Read more...

Trip to Santubong Resort

Keep on talking about my work wasn't a good idea.. I don't like to just work work work.. I know how to stress out and relax too..

My friend (Dave) asked me to go along with him together with few more friends to Santubong Resort.. The intention was only one.. to STRESS OUT!

The journey to Santubong wasn't long.. It's different when you travel in the car comparing to travel in a bus.. I used to travel to Santubong with friends in bus.. The speed reaching the destination was very different.. We reach there in within 30mins which our bus might take us longer time to reach there..

I didn't play much there and slept very early that night.. But I enjoyed the view.. Enjoy the sun bath.. Enjoy catching small fishes and put them back to sea..









Of course it is impossible for me not playing sand at the beach.. I did something to the sand.. Dig my name out.. It's tiring as the water keep on washing away the sand which make the hole bigger and bigger.. but it's FUN!



And ofcourse since we have car to go to eat, why not we go to eat at the restaurant nearby? We went to one of the seafood restaurant nearby to take our dinner that day.. It takes us around 5minutes to reach there.. It's like a mini zoo there.. I saw monkeys, peacocks, goose and so on..



Not forgetting the beautiful beach scenery..>

Me with the Simpsons

I was incredibly lucky to have my off-day at One Utama last month.. The time I been there, Movie Carnival was still on the move there.. In the Movie Carnival, nothing caught much of my attention except one.. THE SIMPSONS Family..

I was able to snap some picture with the Simpsons Family statue at the Movie Carnival.. They were incredibly cute and funny looking..





They are good in posing arent they?

Well.. I am looking toward to watch the movie this end of July... Read more...

Life in Event Company

Well, in fact, I am not working with Digi.. I may seemed like I worked everything with Digi. I am actually working under an event company which got the project from Digi. Two major projects are as the YCF and Digi Celebriteen.

In event company, life is kind of hectic for some times.. At times you may find that you are lack of sleeping and lack of time in doing things.. When you got a lot of projects running at one time, you are like split into so many parts..

I was once in a whole week, sleep at 3am and wake up at 6am everyday.. I can't imagine how malfunctioning I am.. Imagine when you don't have time to relax or tense out.. Imagine how bad you'll look like when you are lack of sleeping.. Imagine how bad your temper will be when you are lack of sleeping..

Well, that's when you are terribly hectic of course.. However, there are good part in event company as well.. When you dont have any project going on.. You'll be bored to hell.. I spent like RM300++ in two days time just in one shopping centre when I am so free.. I bought myself, my family and my beloved ones some items.. I guess that's a disaster when I'm finally free and went to the shopping centre..

Besides shopping, I went to cybercafe like almost everyday.. To check my email and friendster.. Nevertheless, to chat with my friends to get myself updated.. Online in the cybercafe wasn't cheap.. 1hour cost me RM2.50-RM3. 00.. Now try to think that when you online for more than 2 hours a day.. and you online like almost everyday.. It cost even more than you expected..

I admit it's not totally bad working in event company.. You are able to enjoy different dishes when you travelled around.. One special drink that I tasted was a drink named "Cai Hong" (rainbow).. It's actually a mixture of dragon fruit juice and mango juice but it's separated into two layer.. When both mixed, the taste is fanstatic!



Well, that's not all.. I was able to meet a lot of people when I work as I am travelling.. I met people who had different post and different background.. One example is as Juliana the former TV hostess for Chicky Hour.. It's still worthwhile for me to challenge myself to take up this job soon after I finish my Diploma study.. Read more...

Yellow Coverage Fellow (YCF) journey

As promise, I'll give you guys a report on my journey.. Sorry for long delay..
The journey was tiring but exciting..

I gained a lot of experiences from becoming this Yellow Coverage Fellow.. Learn what people are thinking about a mascot.. Learn what people want and need.. Learn what people will do when they tried to compete against each other..

I believe there are different type of human nature we can see obviously, however, there are some that is definitely bonded together with us sicne we are borned..

Let's say something that you would agree.. Where on earth will people reject free things without losing anything? When distributing stuffs in that suit, some people stared at us and wonder if they should take it or otherwise they will have to buy this and that.. However, when we told them we give it for free without charging anything or without asking them to purchase anything then they take it..

Another obvious time would be when you should "FREE GIFT!! FREE GIFT!!" , I am sure that you'll at least attract some people to your place. Something came into my thought.. What if we should free gift to get phone numbers from people? They only have to give us their phone number and we'll give them a valuable item.. will that work as well??

Well, YCF journey is not just about thought of course! There's a lot of fun things.. I was able to meet people who I might be impossible to meet as close as like 1 foot far like the celebrities..




I was glad that I was able to snap some pictures together with our Malaysian Artiste.. Besides, I was "found" in the Media Hiburan magazine in one of the edition as well which I had attended for the Digi Superstar event..

Well, that's just like "menumpang glamor" only.. Of course, another great thing of becoming YCF is that you are able to travel all around for free.. I went to Malacca, Johor and some other places to become the YCF.. It sounded fun but it's really tiring..






Travelling was fun.. but the exciting thing was taking pictures.. You can't imagine how much people would want to take picture with you as a YCF.. You felt like "1 minute fame" star when you got suit on..





Well, that's not all.. Wearing that suit makes you think cute.. think funny.. When I wore it.. I took a lot of pictures with funny pose.. Even to think about it now.. I felt I was so daring to do such things..






Ofcouse, I had learn the YCF dance.. It's nothing.. but it meant a lot when you are able to perform it on stage with more than two thousands eyes looking at you dancing.. Read more...
