long time no see...

it's been awhile since i wrote anything here... been busy or when i wasn't, just did not have the money to go online. even now i'm at joe's place again... lotsa things occurred in the meantime... lets see if i can recap em all...

1: the cleo 9th birthday bash
performed for cleo's 9th birthday bash. 5th nov in zouk. i know a lot of ppl, who found out later that i performed, were mad at me cos i didn't tell them about it cos they wanted to come watch. i'm sincerely sorry. it was a last minute thing. thx to jimbo. or james baum to the world. i featured on his performance and we practised the night before on what to perform. he roped in the other performer of the night, another solo emcee by the name of mc size, to perform with us as well. the day didn't start off well as i woke up late. only managed to get to zouk at 3 pm. soundcheck was supposed to be at 1. pat was there and seemed surprised to see me. it's nice to see the former editor and now publisher for cleo magazine after so long... in that 2 years i haven't seen her, she got married and has a kid now. wow! time sure passes by fast.
finished soundcheck at 4 and decided to follow jimbo back to his place to burn all the minus one songs onto one cd. god/nature had other plans. the rain started getting worse and we were stuck in a massive traffic jam. in fact we were outside zouk for close to 1 hour. so much so that i just turned into parking and said i'll wait here till u come back. didn't feel like being in that jam any longer. i was hungry. and not having gastric problems, instead i get woozy and light headed when i'm hungry. and that developed into a massive headache. *sigh* time crawled on and it was 7 pm. our show was at 8 and 9. i wondered if the guys would get back on time. a funny thing happened. at around 7.30 i went out to make a phonecall and who did i see? mistah yogi b tryin to get into a party that i was performing at. hillarious. idiot walks right in front of me and doesn't bother even acknowlegding me. this is the guy that i trusted my future to and saw as my other big brother before and now accuses me of being ungrateful and still owes me rm2000.
james and size finally arrived at the party at close to 10 pm, after pat having shoved all the other events up front to make place for us later. before they did, my headache took its toll and i puked out all the food that they served that night at the vip area...
i went on after mc size did his single and i performed "legend of boo". the single is scheduled for release in december. by hook or by crook, it will be out by then... had a break for games and james performed his set. very nice. the girls love him. cleo throws great parties. especially ones that i perform in. *smile* later on found out that point was there as well. and that major areas in kl was flooded.
overall the show was good. went home and crashed.

2: bush won the us elections. the end.

3: sugar and spice and everything nice...
puppy came back! she's been here a week now and i almost did not manage to see her at all before she went back to her home town muar. for those who have no idea who she is, she's my really close friend who has been there for me even though she lives and works in the us right now.she's an absolute sweetheart... she's leavin back to ohio this sunday. i went out with her on thursday, hung out in mid valley, had a couple of drinks and i was just basking in her glow. she has such an effect on me. *sigh* if she read this, she'd say "paiseh". walked around, and then i sent her home. weirdly enough her auntie's house seems to neighbour one of my friends house. azlan cameron's house to be precise. funny coincidence. met her mom and chatted for a while and then i left. sad and yet happy. i'm gonna miss her so... wonder when she will be back next...

4: siti nurhaliza and gobi, budak rimba. *note: if u don't like siti nurhaliza, you may want to skip this story*
worked last weekend, saturday in alpha angle and sunday in kinta city, ipoh. both for the sunshine in our hearts campaign, where siti nuurhaliza sits down on stage with like 50 children and tells them a story. in the middle of the mall. the name of the children story is gobi, budak rimba. she is lawa. she recognized me on the first day and i said i'll see her the next day as well. what was my job you ask? i intro her to the stage. back her up if she forgets anything and so on. i was the mc.
kinta city was fun. arrived really early, around 12.30 and hung with my technician yau, until my boss arrived. had lunch, set up everything and then waited for the malaysian jusco foundation ambassador siti nurhaliza to show up.
*off tangent* kitty came by to see me, which was really nice. having not seen her for like a month or so, reminded me why i miss her so dearly. even though she went on and on about a pair of shoes she wanted to buy... *smile* wish she was back here...
siti showed up and told her story and off she went with the kids from an orphanage to buka puasa. after i helped yau dismantle our system, i went up to the buka puasa place, (kenny rogers) to say thank you to the jusco staff who helped out and they grabbed me and asked me to join them. i was politely refusing when i spotted siti looking at me and signalling me to sit down to eat. i obligingly nodded. managed to get my boss, his wife and yau the happy-go-lucky technician to sit down with me to eat as well.
siti is such a good pr. firm handshake. almost perfect artiste. and she was great with the kids...
got back to my place at 12.30 am. tiring day.

wonder if i've missed anything... oh well... can always get back to it another day. like my good deed of the month story. will tell it the next i come on again... *smile* later...
