Bus Company Performs @ BOBASIA 2007
MYC's Battle of the Bands Asia 2007 was a huge success not only for the organizers, with the event being one the biggest battle of the bands in Malaysia, but also for my friends, the winning band, Bus Company!!! It was a life changing night for these guys. Congratulations Sam and Shaun, be strong with God and keep moving forward!

Liang!
Liang hosted the event (as usual, this guy is one hell of an emcee)
Go listen to HITZ or buy his CD.

The Fridays
Best performance of the night. It's not easy to be the first, but these guys pulled it off. The Fridays rocked, and thank goodness their sarongs didn't come off.

Local Celebrities @ BOBASIA 2007
It was a celebrity fest. Hannah Tan, Christien & Lavin, Kenny Sia (to some he is the Malaysian blogger, so that's a celebrity right there). Just before the winning band was announced, we were treated with a rendition of We Are The World. This was the 100th song that night I think. It was crazy, the amount of bands and artists that performed.

Denise @ BOBASIA 2007
Don't get me started on when Denise took center stage to give away 3rd prize. She is drop dead gorgeous. Seeing her prancing around on MTV is nothing when you finally get to see her live. She was as charismatic and bubbly as I imagined her to be. My favourite VJ of all time.

Hannah Tan Giving The Prizes
Bus Company, congrats guys!
Rock on guys! Keep living the dream, and don't let your fans down! Sam call me for the photos! Good night people!

joyce and sebastian at 1U
I recently met back an ol' friend at 1U during my last minute Christmas shopping with Joyce. He was accompanying his kids to watch the Barney show (Steven, someone that felt your pain too) and to my surprise, he has samurai hair now! And since he's working extensively in event photography now, I think he looks pretty darn cool for the job.

canon ef 75-300 III didn't leave empty handed in the end. He borrowed me his Canon EF 75-300 lens. Doesn't need it anymore he says, you know why? Just look at the picture, and see what lens he has. See the white on black? Good for him, good for me =)

Awesome fun and very useful so far. Went through one Christmas service and one Malacca trip with it and really, it came in handy at moments.

Next year's resolution - get more photographer friends

To The World, Merry Christmas

Merry Christmas World

Merry Christmas World! I hope you will be strong.
We can be a little ignorant, we can be a little harsh
So please forgive us.

I think that sums up my abilities to write poetry in 30 seconds. Not very good.

Merry Christmas to all my family and friends and to the people I know and love at KDU, UCSI and MacAsia (and to those who have moved on to greener pastures)

God bless and stay strong for the next year.

I'll be going back to writing some emails now, and see you guys in a few days. Proper holiday post with lots of pictures then. Cheers

Random Mondays Forever! (17/12/07)


Don't you just hate this guy?


Carol found the joys of camwhoring today while out shopping with us. Which brings me to, any ideas for affordable yet nice Christmas presents?


Ok, I don't know what the Chinese characters mean, but judging from the response in English, I'm guessing it's something racist? But come on, this is why Malaysia won't get anywhere, even by 2020. Let's stop being haters and start loving each other despite our skin! There's so much good if we do. And please don't vandalize toilets. I just want to pee in peace.


Guess who! hahaha....


To my friends over the seas and which I don't see often enough: Happy Pre-Christmas!

Random Mondays Strike Again! (10/12/07)


Lets start with the biggest most random thing I did this week. I finally caved in and signed up for a Flickr Pro account yesterday. And so far, it's just great after playing around with the pro features.


1 Utama have their Christmas decorations up, and they're shooting for grand this year. Impressive nut cracker in the middle isn't it? I think they just got tired of the whole "trying to beat each other with the biggest and tallest tree" that they just went ahead and had the tallest, biggest nut cracker.


I came back from Johor Baru on Monday last week, and it was a non stop hectic week of editing the video for Saturday. The short is that I was suppose to shoot the wedding at JB last weekend, and put together a video to be shown at the KL dinner. If anyone's keeping count, this is the 2nd wedding job for me and Prakash.


Jaya Jusco Tebrau City made us feel just at home. Just don't go into Flintstone Cafe. Nice waiters won't distract you from the horrible food and zero value for money food.


This is what the best ABC in Johor Baru looks like.


Been a little bit obsessed with Charlie Brown and friends lately.


And the coupe de grĂ¢ce! Trying out Sketch on my iPhone. Jonathan is not the devil!
