Bukan Cinta Biasa




A beautiful song!
It gave me goosebumps.
It's the kind of song you want to have while walking down the aisle; with your best friends throwing petals of red, pink and white at you. Ah... I've got my wedding all plan, just waiting for the right one to come. hehehe..

Any way, someone very close to me is getting engaged!! I'm super happy for her. All the best!

And yes, today 2 of my guy friends turned a year older.

Syamie, my best friend for 11 years and counting turn 28!
I could still remember the first time I met him. Hilarious! Thank you for all the ups and downs we've been through. Most importantly thank you for keeping safe all the secrets and dark sides! hahahahaha

Aip, my angel! Despite knowing him for only a year but he's like my angel. Super baik lah this man! Semoga cita2 nya akan tercapai. AMIN.

Love&Sex&Magic


I wanna put my mind aside for the moment away from the concert.
Ever since the news is out, I've been doing interviews (hehhee... ), meeting the boys for brainstorming session, doing proposal for outfits sponsors etc.
Next week, we'll have our dance and vocal rehearsal.

So for now, I just wanna rest my mind ;)

These songs have been on my playlist. Enjoy!

It's official!!!


I've kept the news for 2 days.
I didn't share with the boys cause I fear it won't work out.

But yesterday, I received the call to affirm it. The conversation was accompanied by written.
Then I called my boys. Like children, we are so excited!
It's a golden opportunity that shouldn't be missed.
And today morning Abg Hafeez and Aura Shai did a quiz, "Who'll be doing the opening act for KD?"

A lot of names were mentioned. I mean no one would expect my boys. But it's them!
My boys aka SLEEQ will be doing opening act for one of the greatest Diva ever. Kris Daynti y'all!
It's now official on RIA89.7Fm that they will be doing their thing before the Diva performs.
Therefore we'll be doing our rehearsal soon. This evening we'll have our internal meeting; the songs selection, with or without dancers etc.

Also, I've got news that big names from the industry will be there too.

Ya Allah thank you for all this.
I've asked for him to recover and you answered my prayers.
Now you've given us something more.
Akan ku bersujud syukur...

Rise and Fall




Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writing's on the wall
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall (x2)

I always said that I was gonna make it,
Now it's plain for everyone to see,
But this game I'm in don't take no prisoners,
Just casualties,
I know that everything is gonna change,
Even the friends I knew before me go,
But this dream is the life I've been searching for,
Started believing that I was the greatest,
My life was never gonna be the same,
Cause with the money came a different status,
That's when things change,
Now I'm too concerned with all the things I own,
Blinded by all the pretty girls I see,
I'm beginning to lose my integrity

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writing's on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

I never used to be a troublemaker,
Now I don't even wanna please the fans,
No autographs,
No interviews,
No pictures,
endless demands,
Gave in to vices that were clearly wrong,
The types that seemed to make me feel so right,
But some things you may find can take over your life,
Burnt all my bridges now I've run out of places,
And there's nowhere left for me to turn,
Been caught in comprimising situations,
I should have learnt,
From all those times I didn't walk away,
When I knew that it was best to go,
Is it too late to show you the shape of my heart,

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writing's on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall

Now I know,
I made mistakes,
Think I don't care,
But you don't realize what this means to me,
So let me have it,
Just one more chance,
I'm not the man I used to be,
Used to beeeeeeeeeee

Sometimes in life you feel the fight is over,
And it seems as though the writing's on the wall,
Superstar you finally made it,
But once your picture becomes tainted,
It's what they call,
The rise and fall (x3)

A lot of things has been running through my mind now.
Rise and fall... but I'm grateful for each is a lesson on its own.
Thank you Allah for everything.

The lovely companion


It's been a good busy week; busy with work yet I managed to meet up with friends, which is love!

Mama and Jana were off to J-town on Monday. Yes without me this time round. The feeling sucks ya know! But since I've got my own commitment here, I had to stay. So 3 days with my lil bro has been crazy! He and his nonsense are inseparable!

Janz accompanied me and my boys for RC dance rehearsal on Monday evening. It's all done within an hours which is good. Had late dinner and back home.

On Tuesday, my girls Irfa and SV came over to the shop to lepak and gossip (ops! salah... sharing of info was more like it... hehehe). We had so much laughters! Tq girls for the company and yes SV the marble cake is nice! Azmir came over too. Lepak around for an hour or so. Then
Mark texted saying he wanna come over after work to collect his outfit for his video this weekend. Had dinner with Auntie Sal, D and Uncle at the norm place. Bumped into Norsham, my YCS friend and catch up for the latest info on who's married, who's with kids, latest YCS activities etc before heading home since Mark is coming. He came and lepak till 11-ish. We had brief discussion on some issue.

I'm practicing open door concept to all my artistes in which they can come and talked at any time or whenever they are comfortable. It's not necessarily about work all the time. With this, it helps us stay bonded. The discussion was all good.

I couldn't sleep yet again so I stayed up for soccer. Chelsea made it through after 90mins of superbly thrilling game. Boy! I nearly had heart attack while watching the game! huhu. I barely slept for 5hours cos later that morning I had to be in Mediacorp with my boys for RC recording. I just hate delays! After work, Janz and I decided to walk around Iluma. Couldnt find a nice place to makan so we settled for Pizza Hut at GM. My lil bro has been craving for pasta n pizza.

Today I had a hefty dinner with D, Janz and Abg Ami at Seould Garden Bugis. We spent very solid 2 hours for dinner!! Gosh! Dinner was followed by tea session at Sufi. Again we had another round of great conversation.

I felt good honestly. Despite the busy schedule I managed to allocate time for my boys, my siblings and friends. It just makes me a more balanced person.

But there's something in my head that I can't let go off.
Why must it be this difficult? I don't know... I will just go with the flow ;)

Insomnia Part 2


I'm having insomnia! This time is for real.
I would tossed and turned in my bed till 3-ish before I doze off.
Or I would sleep at midnight and then wake up in the middle of early morning trying to put myself to bed again. I think its about time I start reading the Quran again.

The Craig David fever still bugs me. So here's the closing song for that night before he came on stage again to do the encore.




I never thought that I'd fall in love, love, love, love
But it grew from a simple crush, crush, crush, crush
Being without you girl, I was all messed up, up, up, up
When you walked out, said that you'd had enough-nough-nough-nough

Been a fool, girl I know
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time, you'll change your mind
Now looking back i wish i could rewind

Because i can't sleep til you're next to me
No i can't live without you no more
Oh i stay up til you're next to me
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah

Remember telling my boys that I'd never fall in love, love, love, love
You used to think I'd never find a girl I could trust, trust, trust, trust
And then you walked into my life and it was all about us, us, us, us
But now I'm sitting here thinking I messed the whole thing up, up, up, up

Been a fool (fool), girl I know (know)
Didn't expect this is how things would go
Maybe in time (time), you'll change your mind (mind)
Now looking back i wish i could rewind

Because i can't sleep til you're next to me
No i can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh i stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before (Because it)
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah (Ah), Feels like insomnia ah ah

Ah, i just can't go to sleep
Cause it feels like I've fallen for you
It's getting way too deep
And i know that it's love because

I can't sleep til you're next to me
No i can't live without you no more (without you no more)
Oh i stay up til you're next to me (to me)
Til this house feels like it did before
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah

Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah
Feels like insomnia ah ah, Feels like insomnia ah ah


Boy, I'm so glad that he's alright...
So now I can start singing "Everything's gonna be alright..."

Anger Management


I seriously think I need an anger management course.
Damn! Its like I get irritated so easily, I get pissed easily and I snapped so fast.
It could be that time of the month... hopefully its just a phase.
Otherwise I've got to learn to manage it well. My bad... its my flaws...

Anyway a few hours ago, I heard from an acquittance that someone I knew was recently admitted to IMH. Apparently she took 16 paracetamol a few days back. She was admitted to normal hospital before being referred to IMH due to depression. Oh gosh! I was super shocked! She's like barely 22. She's so pretty and intelligent equipped with good family and a great boyfriend. Why on earth would she wanna commit suicide??????????!!!!!!!!!!
I have yet got the chance to speak to her. But I'll do so soon.

I mean life is so short. Why risk it? ish ish ish... budak2 skrang...

Insomnia


My headaches are back once again!
This time it doubles up with backache. Gosh! I've never been so temperamental in my life..ok I know this part is bulls*** cos I've got a bad temper. Any way the pains are killing me.

Wednesday
It's Craig Davids' day!! I stayed glued to PTM cause my dear friend Dila had text me the night before stating that CD will go live at 915am. The moment he came on, I was like... yeah I'm so gonna have a good time tonight.

Since Rif and I had got the tixs, Jana and Janz entered via All Access Pass as Mark B's doing the opening act. We got our table and positioned ourselves nicely so we'll able to get great view.
Craig David came on stage at 9pm and I was on my feet throughout the whole showcase.
I sang to his songs, danced to it and even recorded most songs.

Then as the band was playing the intro of a song, Rif said, "It's your fav song..."
Immediately I had goosebumps. So when CD sang, I had tears in the corner of my eyes! I video recorded the song with my shaky hands! Gosh... that's what CD has done to me!
ps: the song is in my previous entry.. hehe

Just one word to describe Craig David; FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
His vocals were so superb and pitch perfect!
His energy and stamina on stage was so incredible. He even did 16bars of rap in just 1 go.
His music was just awesome.
The band, the lighting, the crowd and the encore were amazing.
In nutshell Craig David make me fall in love with him all over again! hahaha
Even Janz was enjoying himself ;)

After the showcase, I mingled with few friends who came for the showcase but we left shortly cos the poor boy's still running a fever. He didn't wanna risk his tix since CD was like his IDOL.

Thursday
I had to enter JB to meet my supplier in the morning. Rushed back to shop and left again at 4 to Mediacorp with Janz. The boys were supposed to be doing special appearance for Raihan who's doing Hiccups in the Top 5 Exposed Act.

The boy is still stick and feeling terrible thus he's off for the night. The other did his thing.
By then I'm already tired. I didn't attend the Tapau Party organized by LnL Team held at HomeClub. Instead I rushed home and rest. The headaches attack begins!

Caught LnL on TV and received numerous sms-es from the girls with regards to the missing boy. Too many well wishes for him.

I went to bed after LnL cause I took my pills. But by 4-ish I was awake again. Tossed and turned till I received a sms that states "I couldn't sleep... I'm in pain... Pls pray for me..." It got me worried and thus affected my whole sleep. I could only pray in silent hoping the best for him.

Friday
As usual got up and head for office.
By lunch I knew that the headaches are here to stay till weekend.

By 3pm, I left for sound-check at Azzucar. The place's pretty dope; small yet the sound system's compact. Went back to office again to get ready.

Event was planned to start at 8pm but was delayed due to some unforseen circumstances. It began at around 9-ish almost to 10. By then I'm completely worn out! I jus can't wait for it to be done and over with. Ended around 1am.

Saturday
Today the whole day I was feeling so unwell. My backaches were just killin me plus those headaches.

But I can't rest cos a customer is coming for bridal fitting. Once they're done, I headed for dinner with my siblings and Abg Ami. Met Syamie and Aisha for some mint tea with hope that it'll helps cure my headaches. It did for a while but now its back again.

I'm gonna sleep now.
Pixs to be uploaded in FB soon ;)

3am


It's 3am now. I just step foot in the house about half an hour ago. Couldn't sleep so I tot of updating this blog of mine. So what have I been up to?

Besides being busy as a chef (hahahaa), I've been pretty tied with stuffs.
I managed to attend RSVP by 987FM last Saturday held at BarNone. Mark B was performing. He did an acoustic set which I find interesting. Did my PR thingy before heading for post party.

Sunday was busy at shop.

Monday afternoon was occupied with my boys. They have to do some blue screen filming for an upcoming programme. Thank God it ended early so I can go back my office to clear some paper work.

Tuesday was spend at office and shop. Just gotta clear the mess. Mum's been nagging about it. hahahaha

Today I decided to let loose a little. Was in town with Janz, D and Rif since 3pm. Janz finally got a new wallet. His hard earned money. It's always different when you buy things using your hard earn money to using others'. You tend to appreciate it more when you pay using your very own bills. Welcome bro to the club of independence... hahaha. Afah and Jana joined us much later. Just had so much fun bitching and window shopping.

at 7pm, had meeting with our Arts Team for the album cover and layout. I just can't wait for it to be drop! The feelings? Mixed actually. Nervous, excited, worried, happy... all blend into 1. But I'm sure it's a good one.

Boys and I headed for Mediacorp as they have go live on air with Zan Sofyan. It was just hilarious!!!!!!!!!!!!! The pantun, the Melayu-celup and selecting old songs. But I'm glad the listeners had fun. Most importantly, we had makcik2 that call in ;) It all ended good. Nothing completes our outing without supper. So makan again at AlAmeen for some briyani, prata, nasi ayam goreng and nasi goreng daging merah. If this continues, I might just end up like Queen Latifah. hahhahaha.

Ok gtg... Time to catch up on my beauty sleep.
