Hello people! It has been so long since I last updated my blog. Life after graduation is fun and relaxing, I am taking this as a 3 months break to recharge myself before going back on track.

I guess this is going to be a VERY LONG post. And I think I'm going to write about Big Bang's concert the most. LOL. *coughs i know coughs*


So, what happened within these 3 months?


I went to Penang in August with my family for a few days trip. Thanks to dad, knowing that I wanted to visit the street arts done by Ernest Zacharevic so much, he brought us there. Penang is a great place with a lot of great food, too bad we never get the chance to eat Asam Laksa near Kek Lok Si, it was super jam!




Then I went to Bangkok in September with dad and my elder cousin brother. My first time getting out of the country, opps. Too bad I didn't get much time to move around the city as this was their business trip. Bangkok is indeed an interesting place to be frank, will be back for a visit again one day!







Time flies way too fast already. If I could turn back time, I would like to reverse back to the beginning of October. This year's October is indeed my month! 


First off, convocation! :D I am now an official degree holder, after 2 years of studying in Swinburne University, yay!




Credits to Lit Yee zhabor for this photo, thank you!

This was taken on the day before the big day. Only then I realize this is the only solo graduation photo that I have for myself. Omg fail.




And then the " Oppa Ipoh Style" Video that my friends and I had done is a huge success. I have never thought of this before as we only thought of doing this as an entertainment and interest. The video had gain a lot of views the time I upload it, like wow. Our video had got onto the local newspapers and we were interviewed by the press too, and even got invited to perform. Seriously, I am very surprised and very happy at the same time knowing about this. And I was in Kuching that time for my convocation. A huge convocation present for me, aye? That's what my friends said. Haha.



These are the illustrations that I did.

And here's the video!
You might have to watch this in Youtube itself though.







And finally, yes, Big Bang's Galaxy Alive Tour in Malaysia!!! My best pre-birthday celebration and birthday present ever!!! :DDDD

It has been a week already since their Alive Tour in this country, and still, I miss it so darn much. D: From all the concerts I have been to, I have to say that Big Bang's concert is the most amazing and awesome one, seriously! If I could turn back time, I wish to reverse back to the night itself and stop right there. I have never ever thought that I will get so interested into a korean group so much. But frankly speaking, these boys are just way too different from those typical korean groups! Their style, their music, me loike! There's none of the korean groups that I am interested, not until I met them.

Back then in year 2009, when I was still in college, my friend did showed me their "Haru Haru" mv, I then kinda got interested the moment I saw T.O.P (still don't know who the fark he is that time LOL) and I wow-ed when the song was played. But then I was so into ang-moh music that time so I didn't care much about asian music. I was a rocker in the old days. Bwahah. Then I went over to Kuching for my studies years later, 
my friend introduced this group to me and again, with their hit songs "Haru Haru" and "Lies". Well, who knew, I actually fell for this multi-talented boy band.


I still remember very well, that somewhere in the middle of this year I was wondering to myself when Big Bang will come over to Malaysia and few weeks later they announced that they will be having world tour and Malaysia is one of them. Fucking excited and thrilled, I was like finally they are coming! And coincidentally, their tour date falls on the 27th of October, which is a day before my birthday! *happy die* That's why I said it is the best birthday present to me! ;DDD It's really funny thinking about the moment deciding about the tickets with the friends. We were really really really lucky that one of my friend actually found out about the pre-booking ticket thing. That's how we managed to get our rock zone tickets! :) If we missed it, we might not be able to attend the concert or, gonna get the far far away zone and see them from far. 

I miss the moment being all excited and nervous on the day before their concert. Can't even sleep at all! Neither do my friends, hahaha! Even got so happy from GD's and Taeyang twitter update about their arrival in KL. I met a lot of people heading to KL for Big Bang's concert on the day itself in the early train. So the time I reached KL Central, I met up with my friends, went to check-in into our hotels, went to the stadium together to see the merchandise, wondering around in Bukit Bintang area, went back to hotel rest and shower, and finally ready to set for the concert.


The things that we got in the afternoon. Weather was so hot that my friends and I were drenched in sweat. Oh, and we heard their voices during their sound checking! We got so excited when we heard that so we started singing along! I think we are the only crazy gang who did that over there LOL!
Spot TOP in the camera yo! :P


Ok. I'm very lazy to write already lolololol so I think I'll just copy and paste what I wrote in facebook.

To those who want to check out the fancams, I have uploaded them in my facebook. :)


I am still having post-concert hangover. -.- This is the first time i am facing a concert hangover. Seriously.. And from the concerts i've been to, I've gotta say Big Bang's concert was the most awesome and memorable one among all! Still feel surreal though, like finally I'm able to see all of them in real person instead of watching them fro screen! Back then somewhere earlier on this year, I was hoping that they will come over to Malaysia. Who knows few months later they announced that they'll be having tour in Malaysia, on the 27th of Oct, the day before my birthday. This is the bestest birthday present to me ever!!! :)))

The boys were so fantastic and amazing that night!!! I never regret for attending this concert, not at all! In the end everything was worth it! :))) It was dope, fantastic! :DD


Daesung was really friendly and his smile is always so charming! His singing in live was really good and he kept on saying 'Malaysia bagus!' that night. Lol. Can see that he was touched when we sang along 'Wings' together with him.


Seungri looked so handsome in real person, seriously. And during his solo performance he looked really leng chai man! He said "Malaysia is a nice place" and that made everyone else happy! Somehow he's playful and like a kid though, funny as well. Too bad i didn't mange to catch the jacket he threw out, the jacket was so fuggin nice!


Taeyang was really cute and no doubt he is the best dancer in the group! Lol. He rapped 'Aku Cinta Padamu' and it was so funny! And during the end of the concert, Tae said 'How can I let you all go like this"? Like awwwww..! And they did encore twice!! His new hairstyle ain't bad at all, reminds me of the old him lol though mohawk somehow suits him better. 


G-Dragon, my second bias after TOP, was full of swag and charm that night, damn awesome too! He even asked all of us what song we want them to sing. And the best part is he said from all the shows that they did, Malaysia is the best one! ♥


And finally TOP! So cool all the time, yet playful. He was touched and surprised when we all held up the 'birthday card' and started to sing happy birthday to him, I see tears in his eyes. He was so funny when he did his dance and posed the live sign. I was really lucky enough that he was on the left side most of the time, even sat down sooooo near omg! Like finally, I was able to see him in person! <3333 loool="loool" my="my" p="p" prezzie="prezzie">












I had the best night and best pre-birthday celebration!! :DD Thank you so much to the boys and the band who put in so much effort for the performance! :)))) And of course the bunch of friends whom i went to concert with, thank you for the memorable moments! :)))
I had never thought that I'll love a korean group so much before. Big Bang is the only korean group that i really listen to, they are just so different from the rest of the korean groups, to me. So yea, this explains why i love this group heaps! :P

Hopefully they'll be back in Malaysia again! <33 br="br">
Check out the vlog from TMT. Recap on what happened the day! :D




Oh yea, and Seungri's recording using his Samsung S3! :)))





For your information their tour is sponsored by Samsung.




And this? :OOO

I know it's fake LOL. But since my dad said S3 suits me more as Note2 is way too big for me (which is true, can't even fit it in my pocket) , though I really want Note2 more. Well i guess, I can take this as a reason to convince myself for S3 instead. lolwtf. Still, S3 is a good phone. A lot of people said it's the same as Note2 just that in some parts there are slight difference.
But I ain't gonna get white though. Hah :P Eyeing on the other colors! B)



Since today is 4th of November, sooooo... Happy birthday T.O.P! Just realize he is a Scorpio too! <33 br="br">I miss his bad ass look so much! Hoping one day he'll go back to this kind of style! >< The bad boy T.O.P yo.

Dilemma

Dilemma.

Me too actually.

But for now, i think i'll just concentrate on doing the stuffs i like as well as building the portfolio. And then, hopefully i'll get into the company i want.

Farewell, Kuching

Farewell, Kuching. This marks the end of my 2 years degree life in Kuching. 
And now I am back in the west side already.

Just like that, 2 years has gone. It is fast, isn't it? 
Back then during the first few semesters I was hoping that everything would finish asap. But then when i stepped into the second semester of my final year, i just hoped that time would just slow down a lil'. It didn't, instead it flew by even faster. And i've gotta say, this winter semester ended really, really, really fast..

To someone like me who prefers city life, who studied in KL for 3 years, everything seemed toned down in Kuching the time i arrived in that place. I can't even get used to it at all. Shitty things happened too. I was so upset that I kept on thinking that life in West Malaysia is so much better. Not until when things became much better during the second semester of my final year, that eases my thoughts. Weird, ain't it? 

Swinburne was never in my list when i was picking universities and colleges to continue my degree studies. I was aiming for The One Academy and Taylor's at that time.Then my dad found out about Swinburne University in Sarawak, so he asked me to try since it's a branch campus from Swinburne Australia. So, i tried, and went for Multimedia Design.

To be frank, i've never regret studying in Swinburne Kuching afterall, despite all those shitty things lol. It's still a nice place to be in. And thank god i've chosen Multimedia Design instead of going back to Graphic Design, really. In the end, i found out that i am more interested in Multimedia Design, thanks to the intership i had in my college days lol. The lecturers are so different compared to the ones i had back in my college. Hereby, thank you Augustus, John, and Wilson, three of you are great lecturers. Thank you for always giving support and helping the students! :)

To the Kuching friends i've met over there, you people are awesome! The hostel friend, the kuching gang,  the seniors, the dudes in my class. I'm not going to list out all the names, you guys sure know who you are!! ;)) Thank you so much! My days in Kuching wouldn't be interesting without you guys! :)








Some of the friends are not in the photos though.


It sure feels sad to leave the friends. I hate farewells. =/ It's hard for me to meet up with them again, as most of them are East Malaysians. Well, we will meet in October though, but after that i don't think i'll be able to see them much already. And this time i will be back in Kuching as a tourist, no longer as student anymore.
Oh well, still hope that we all will stay contact with each other. I wish all the best to each and everyone of you! Thank you for making my 2 years in Kuching wonderful! Again, it's great to know you people! :) Gonna miss the moments with you guys!




And to the friends in the west, I am back. Teehee! B)





If you are wondering what i've been up to since i'm back in West Malaysia...










I've been growing mushrooms everyday. Lol. 
Welcome to my mushroom farm! :DDD





Feel bored and somehow lost my motivation and direction after i got back. So, this is what people felt after they've graduated? 




Gotta start doing something soon and find back my motivation. So does fixing the portfolio.

Kuala Lumpur: It's Alive


"How cool is your city? http://alive-my.com

This is just brilliant i have to say! :DD *thumbs up*
Another side of KL city yay! It's great to see a bunch of people come up with something like this in KL.
I've been waiting man!

Fyi i prefer city life. B) So me loike this!


Since they've mentioned "cities", well i guess it's not just Kuala Lumpur then? Which includes Ipoh, Penang and others too? Or... It's just KL only? O: Lol *shrugs* If this includes other places too then it would be great though. Cuz i thought of something for my lovely hometown Ipoh. *imma ipoh mali yo!*

Should really check this video out! Awesomeness! Something really different. Check out the project too! ;)

"Where will you see yourself in 5 years time?"

It's 04.11am right now. I'm supposed to rush for my 3D assignment but then decided to take a break from it for awhile. The progress is really slow. And this will be the very last assignment i will be having in my university life. Thinking about starting another new phrase of life soon is giving me mixed feelings. I'm excited yet worried at the same time. :/


Someone asked me one question yesterday.



"Where will you see yourself in 5 years time?"



And thoughts starting to mingle through my mind.
I know what i want, i know where should i go. But still i am not too sure somehow. 
Oh wells. I hope i'll achieve what i've aimed for.



So let me ask you, "Where will you see yourself in 5 years time then?"

R U READY?


This song is dedicated to the young adults who are going to graduate soon and entering the whole new chapter of life.
Listen to the lyrics carefully.
:)







Am I the only one feeling this way

There is a storm that's filling my head
No reversing from my yesterdays
There's gotta be a better way
 
I wanna get out, I wanna be free
I wanna be all I can be
But right now (right now)
It starts now (starts now)
I gotta GET IT TOGETHER!
 
Here we go, R U ready
Here we are just keeping it steady
Cos this life just got one shot
We gotta break through till we reach the top
R U ready
 
Please unfold tomorrow's mysteries
Will I fall in the traps of society
Or rise in the midst of kings and queens
Kings and queens…
 
What's the point if life comes easy
You crash, you burn and you fly
You're free
 
Here we go, R U ready
Here we are just keeping it steady
Cos this life just got one shot
We gotta break through till we reach the top
R U ready
 
So I sing out loud 
(Gonna stand up proud)
Cos I know I'm in control
I can't wait to see
(What's meant to be)
I can't wait to see
What the future holds…for me
 
Here we go, R U ready
Here we are just keeping it steady
Cos this life just got one shot
We gotta break through till we reach the top
R U ready
 
Here we go, R U ready
Here we are just keeping it steady
Cos this life just got one shot
We gotta break through till we reach the top
R U ready
 
R U ready……

Le Presentation

Had our project presentation to our client, Sarawak museum on the 5th of July, which is a Thursday. 

Well the subject is supposed to be last semester's. Something happened during the presentation last semester, the clients ffk-ed and the whole thing was pretty screwed. We were so disappointed that time because the clients did not turn up as they have promised, and we spent the whole semester and countless sleepless nights to complete this project. I was pissed and seriously disappointed to be frank, guess the rest of my classmates felt that way too eh. Like hello, who doesn't in this kind of situation right? I thought that was the end of everything already.

Thank god my lecturer did not give up on this project yet. He tried to find other clients and propose the project and ideas to them, even went over to the Sarawak Museum with the leader and presented the works to them. And guess what, there are people who are interested in the project that we did, and for the Sarawak Museum, *poker face* the director was so excited after seeing what we have done. Tell ya, his attitude towards us changed dramatically after we proved to him what we can do. Swt. But happy lah knowing that they liked our stuffs.


Presentation on that day itself was the smoothest one ever. Lol. Even though i was nervous like shit. In the end i managed to pull through, so does my classmates. Yay!





The team of the day. Some of the classmates are not in though.

Thank you peepo!

Hello July

And here goes, half of 2012 is gone, it's July now. Well actually i feel that 2012 has only begun not long ago. Is it me or everyone feels this way? 

Anyway I am in my very final semester right now. It is winter semester so it will be a really short one, like one month plus? Now I am left with one more month to go aka 4 weeks, then I am all done with my university life. Will be back in West Malaysia by then, and start preparing for the next phrase of my life. Gan jeong.

I wonder how the real life working would be like?

I mean, I have been through 3 months internship in an advertising company back then in college. But I don't think with that 3 months of experience I'll be able to get myself all prepared for the working world. And that was like, 2 and a half years ago? 

Seeing my college friends suffering and being all stressed over their work is making me hell worried. I am afraid mine will be even worse. And looking at my university friends who are a batch ahead of me having hard time looking for jobs is making me even more worried like fuck man. Oh lord. I have a few companies in my list right now, and I do really hope that I could get in either one of them, seriously. *prays*

And I am wondering whether people actually feel lost before they graduate?

I have been feeling this way since the starting of the semester. I thought I already know which way should i go, but then when i think of it again and again, of course after reading the articles and suggestions, I am starting to wonder again. There more I think the more I'll feel lost. Well, I already feel lost though, in the middle of no where, not knowing which path should I take. 
Now I really wish someone will guide me through this. 
People said you need passion. I thought i found mine, now i've lost it. And i need to find it back.


To be honest, since this semester started I am all worried, stressed and emotional only, the temper is even worse now. Pre-graduation effect ah??? 
There are so many thoughts going on in my head recently. Just remembered that I have a blog, at least I can throw some stuffs in here. Lol. And this post can be really long if I go on.

But no. Cuz I have to do my assignment now already. Lol. Memang no mood wheyyyyyy but still gotta get the works done.





Before i end this post...





VIVA ESPANAAAAA!


Yes, Spain has won the Euro Cup, again. They have been the champion for Euro Cup 2008, World Cup 2010 and now Euro Cup 2012 again. Definitely the strongest and best team in the world already! :D 
And there are quite a lot of Barca and Madrid players in the team, it's good to see that they can work together so well for their nation despite the rivals in between Barcelona and Real Madrid. People, this is call good team work! Lol. Though I really wanted Germany to win this time. Too bad they were defeated by Italy in the semi finals. Sad sial weh that time. Because my friend and I were hoping that final would be Germany-Spain final. But then it's okay. Spain is my second favourite team after Germany, so yeah. Can't deny Spain is indeed good. 



Germany will be next yo! :)) 







And I guess those whoever knows about football will definitely know who is Mario Balotelli. Go google if you don't know who he is. Apparently there are so many memes of him going around the internet. LOL. I hate him, really. He has a really bad attitude. Being too over confident and cocky. If you know what I mean. What he has done to Manchester United ( i'm a Man U fan btw loool ), Germany and even before the final with Spain started he tweeted that he'll invite Shakira to the final and let her see what he'll do to her boyfriend. Sweat right? So sombong! For your information Shakira's boyfriend is Gerard Pique.

Serves him right in the end! Padan muka kao kao! Italy got fried by Spain 4 times! Sorry for the Italy fans but this dude need to be taught a lesson.




Well I need to concentrate on my work now. Seems like talking about football makes me happy and excited lolwtf. 



Till then. Ciao.
