I was having dinner with Suet Yee at 1 utama on sat night after my parents abandoned us for a wedding and Suet Yen ditched us for a party. Hmph! Anyway, decided on Esquire Kitchen thanks to miss prima donna who gets hunger pangs every 10 seconds. I regretted playing nice, big sister and I'll tell you why. Number one, she is such a pain! (God, forgive me)
"HOW can you touch that!!!The waitress just used her dirty thumb on that!!! Go wash your hands, GO WASH YOUR HANDS!!!" It was just one of those promotion dishes thingy and I nicely got lectured. Thank God it was noisy so she was drowned up a bit. "Why is our food late? That couple came after us and they get served first??? What is this??? *@#$%la" Sheesh! Its not like I own Esquire or something but I felt like she was expecting me to go and cause a big hoo-ha. "Oh no...Is that a fly in the food? Is that a fly in the food? AAAARRRGGGHHHH it is!!! @#$%&la!!!" Well this time, it was a FLY in our half eaten fried vege.Sigh...so much for a peaceful dinner...
Well, a silver lining in every cloud? Malaysian idols Daniel, Nita and Farah perked things up a little when they showcased at 1 Utama's giant pelita! I was actually excited though I'm not a fan. Each one rendered 3 songs and Farah actually freaked out a little so she called Nita after "Percayalah". She did however manage another 2 after seeing Nita so confident I guess. When Daniel came up, everyone stood up and really went hyper. I felt a little pity for the other 2 idols. It was really quite clear most of the crowd was here for Danny boy. All three had great voices but at some point, they didn't tie in with the minus-one so there were a few twangs here and there but I still stand firm, Daniel CAN sing. Sure, he's not exactly tall, dark and handsome but at least he proves people he's an idol though I must say, he should interact with the crowd more and by interact I mean not urging your fans to buy your single over and over again. That was it for Saturday!
Come Sunday, finally got a chance to hang out with George, Sup and Pang again at Guy Sebastian's Paradise Live concert at Glad Tidings. Before that, we had really good dinner at some Gasing Chinese Restaurant thanks to Sup's recommendation and after my usual two bowls of rice, we headed for the concert though we weren't really sure where the place was.We trusted our instincts and phew! luckily there was only two options; we ended up in a place called "Glad Tidings" but it was closed and empty. A guard then directed us to another Glad Tidings not too far off that was packed! Thanks to George's "sophisticated" driving and my "expert" potong queue (I really didn;t mean it! Was looking for vickie when i realised we were near the entrance so we entered anyway, ignoring those that queued up.Whoops!), we were not late.
I had a great time but honestly, I was a bit worried for my friends so I decided to keep from jumping although I did bunny hop here and there when the music really got me going. Paradise Live was well... Just so good! They started off with a few sound glitches but after that, everything just flowed. However, I find that it was weird to intercept the concert to collect offerings for the group. It kind of killed the atmosphere a bit but they set sail again with great worship songs and got the crowd up and going in no time.
One thing that struck me was how humble Guy was. He just blended in with the band, lead a song once and that's it. No one was outshined but by God's grace, the whole team shone for Jesus and that is the only thing that matters.
After dropping by at A&W for waffle, rootbeer and tea, Georgie dropped us off and what is a best way to end a star studded weekend? Well, there's always nothing like a star-studded-sleep-till-world-ends kind of slumber.

I have this big blue marble
Twas given to me when I was born
What for? I asked my Father
Choices had to be made, my heart was torn
Days came, months passed, years dropped by
All laced with sunshine and rain I saw
And sometimes, I simply forgot to try
To find out what my big blue marble was for
Then came this lady with a cloth most of us missed
On it, she poured her dreams and made us wonder
Though she left before the cloth was finished
I realised she too had a big blue marble
Its funny how at once, life is happy and sad
But I'm glad that this lady said "See?"
I must never stop trying, no matter how bad
So that one day surely
Big blue marble will be proud of me
in loving memory & respect of Datin Seri Endon Mahmood
Put a bunch of girls together at Deb's place with pizzaz, junk and tv. What do you get? Slumber party? Not quite. Ha ha... instead u get 2 reading clinical guide for class tomorrow, 2 engrossed with Dr. House and a couple of ppl messing around with tarots.Well, considering we're mature medical students, okla, this is acceptable. Heck, no hair braiding, nail polishing or gossiping(well just a little) and i still had fun!:)
A visit that costs 28 ringgit must be good right? I kept asking myself this question as we decided to enter the Aquarium KLCC. Hah it better be or else mom will nag me for life though i must say she's doing that already. Anyway, the place rocks! They even gave me a free CD of the place, probably trying to sedate me after charging me a bomb. Although Sentosa's Underwater World boasts of a larger collection of aquatic life, i'm sure its a matter of time and money before we see more species in town. Hopefully, the place will mature beautifully and still look like that after a few years and few hundred thousand potential vandals.
HALLELUJAH!!!! Haemato is over. Yay Yay!!! No more weirdo red blood cells and lunatic white ones plus crazy platelets. My life is freeeeeeee!!!!!!! Well, only for a while. Now it feels like coming up for my first breath after being underwater for so long. Looking forward to a great chill-out weekend for the first time in a long while :)Then its back to the watery graveyard of GI....
