The 2 Main Things

there's two main behaviours that i have and i wanna share with you people.

1) i like to talk to myself. example, if i were to meet my friends at dhoby ghaut to play lan gaming, i will think about having reach there, and then i'll play it everything in my mind like while i'm walking with my friends, i may meet this someone and started talking to that someone. and of course my mind will put the scripts for me and that someone. so its like making stories that haven't happen or wanting it to happen. the problem is the talking part, my mouth sometimes say all the words that i play it in my mind while talking to an imaginary someone in my mind. that's why i always kena caught by my sister, "oi abang, bebual sendiri aper?"

2) when my mind have some kind of a great idea, an idea that i really wanting to make, at that moment of time, i will do it. example. during the fasting month, i tought about how the kids will enjoy themselves at my home without touching my computer? let them play cards or board games. so i decided to make a board game. and so i've used a number of hours to check out ideas of making board games in the internet. when i started cutting out the cardboards and papers, usually the semangat will come during the nitefall and i burnt the midnight oil just to make it that its at least less than half of the board game is done.

for that first behaviour i had, i'm searching for ways to make it useful.
for the second behaviour, the great ideas usually came when i see toys, games, fun fairs, theme parks, something that is fun and playable. also something that can make people happy and enjoy.

well, two heads are better than one. so just click on the "comments" button and give some opinions and suggestions. thanks.

Kek Pandan Tetap Paling Favorite

pesta peti putih. pusaka seni members should go and watch the theatrical stuffs each schools portray for this year's competition.

went to NAFA to watch NUS cos my sister acted. got my one day leave from my Captain, at 6pm i leave from CDA and met izzam. good thing NSF pay only $13 instead of $17 for adults, cos seriously the ticket was way too expensive ah and school students are the one performing, not some well known local artistes. sedangkan GPA final ticket price of $8 was to me dah cukup mahal, padahal semua budak2 sekola yg main. but never mind, since i'm working, got money so i won't complain.


the first thing i saw when i went into the Black Box were white boxes, it made me thinking, how this boxes will be arranged during the play and will it be too messy to arranged since there's so many different sizes.



NUS buat cerita mengenai pembangunan singapura menggunakan idea dari kek. different types of cakes have different types of tastes and sizes and these represents the different types of government. interesting idea. my sister wanted to have kek pandan. she acted as someone very stern and angry kind. she represents the government of communism. there's a few kek2 that other main casts suggest and end up the mother(some sort of leader) chose kuih lapis. heheheh. never mind if u don't understand. well so far i see my sister acted very well. she really brought out the character that she had to play and i couldn't see her as herself but as someone else. power ah adik.

Red Army, Gua Respect Sama Lu

no wonder i got comments about my previous post. when i read it just now, i felt that the post was too depressing, wooo... not my type man.





yesterday at work was movies day man. 4 movies in one day. but i think the best was Enemy At The Gates. i was wowed by the WWII train. then after that, the red army in the train was sent to Stalingrad. but the best part was the journey from the train to the port then to the boat which moves to the Stalingrad port and also the settings of Stalingrad was scary and sad man. big black clouds filled the atmosphere, the sounds of artillery, planes, machine guns, black soils, dead bodies, the screams of pain... then the red army ran towards the german lines were so feeling man. to see the guy holding the red flag in one hand and a pistol in the other looked so heroic man. that was as good as Saving Private Ryan.

Dah Besar Nak Jadi Apa?

its been a dull day for these 2 off days i've had. happy birthday to my sis and my bro, their 22 and 17 respectively. how big they've grown. been playing neopets. to be exact, i'm playing the stock market of Neodaq. sounds stupid i know.

oh my god .......................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... really got nothing to do rite now, seriously. fuuh... ok... ok...

aku nak jadi ape bila aku dah besar nanti? when i was little, i used to like science. i remembered i told my mother that i wanna be a scientist. bullshit? maybe...
then i remembered when i was in primary school, my teacher asked my class to draw what we wanna be when we're grown up. i drew a policeman. i do not know why i drew a policeman but i suspected its easier to draw or maybe its nicer to draw. but truthfully, i'm afraid of policemen. when they're in presence, my heart tends to pound a bit faster, afraid that is, even though i know i didn't do anything wrong. well that's because when i was young, mak aku takut2kan aku dgn mat2 police. thanks emak....

then in secondary school, i was in love with football. the problem is, my mother tried to stop me from playing football, she forced me to join science club than soccer in my primary school times. thanks again emak... i was a science club member from primary 3 to primary 4. then i got bored and joined badminton for a year only and i was not chosen cos i lost a game during the trials, i'm suck at it. then in primary 5 i joined the school soccer trials. i was not chosen. then when i'm in secondary school, i joined the school soccer team. as usual secondary 1, they don't get a chance to play for the school because the secondary 2 students conquered it all. when i was in secondary 2, i got the chance to play for the school team, but at that time, the coach still searching for the top 11 and there were almost 20 students. so we played a few friendlies with other schools. i remembered we kena trashed by zhonghua sec and ACS. after the whole friendlies, the coach told me, i'm not chosen. i'm not even in the top 5 substitutes. haiz... Thank God i got the chance to wear the school jersey playing Rugby from sec 3 to sec 4.

during that secondary time, i like the army. i like to play command and conquer games. i like to read this book about army stuffs like ground tactics and other army stuffs, i even like to see army vehicles like the tanks and the jet planes. i also like to read about world war 2 and watch war movies, even during my poly years. then i got my NS letter, saying that i'll be joining the SCDF.

i told my parents if i'm interested in SCDF during my training, i will consider to sign on. and what a sad life i had when i was told that my batch will be going for 7 weeks of basic rescue training and after that, i will be posted to become, comms personnel, clerk, driver, cook, storeman. no firefighter. haiz...

so here i am, a telephone operator cum call transfer cum info counter cum key handler in the academy of SCDF. haiz...

i'm getting fat. oh yeah i am. from 80kg to 87kg in one year. haiz...

Whopper, You Rock!

oh yeah, i remembered, just now also i went to esplanade. check out the bands playing. got Baybeats. i just listen to one band, they were playing some kind of an indie rock song. and of cos it got bored for me and my friends. surely there's no heavy metal band playing. so me and my friends went off. walked all the way to Plaza Singapura. k this is the best.

for the first time in my life, i now know that the most wonderful burger that BK had is the Whopper, with cheese!!! damned. for the first time i ate that burger i was very happy cos its big. and i was full! waah, seriously of all fast food, BK is my less favorite because of the price. but $6.30 for a Whopper meal is, well i can proudly say, worth it lah.

Karaoke Happening Beb!

just got back from karaokeing with my friends at Cash Studio Family Karaoke. didn't expect quite a number of malay customers there. good thing is there's alot of malay songs to choose from. next time i'll go there again. my favorite song that i sang just now was Cinta Azali by Nurul. very feeling song.

a package of 3 person cost $38. another person will be $10 each. first round of drinks are free. the catch is 10 percent service charge. to find songs were easy cos they got a book of songlists to search, you got to know the title of songs which are in alphabetically order. also the system is easy to use and you can find songs from singer names. very user-friendly. its also very accessible. its near clarke quay mrt station which is about 200 metres. if you're interested the place is inside Apollo Centre, 2 Havelock Road.

The Longest Sleep

for the first time i get to eat at Breeks with my NS-mates. Sergeant Dzul gonna ORD so he belanja us on one of the best meals i've ever ate. after that the fun haven't ended cos we went LAN gaming at ParkLane. it was around midnite already and we decided to past the time playing Battlefield 2 before headed to Plaza Singapura to watch the World Cup final.

Batlefield 2 rocks man! the best part when i asked for artillery and the shells rained down near one of the enemy. the sounds were like real artillery strikes and of cos, the enemy was hit! hahaha! power ah.

then after playing for 2 hours, we all headed to PS and watch the game. haiz... if only England were in the final... the game was ok ah but because we didn't get seats cos we're too late, we had to stand and the boring part was there's too many people standing and their heads blocked the below part of the screen.

after the game i had a headache. in the first train to boon lay, i didn't shut my eyes cos it will make my head spinning. after reaching CDA, i went straight to bed and slept cos at 8am i had to work. but somehow i had the longest hours of sleep that day.

Untukmu anak2 Andayu

For those who didn't get the chance to read and savour the beauty of the puisi specially made for the subgroups of Andayu.

Indra Nila Kirana - Kumpulan Tarian Melayu

Seni tari melayu takkan layu,
Dihiasi irama dan paluan,
Hayunan ayu ikut rentak dan lagu,
Bak sutera menghias puteri kayangan.

Betara Karisma - Kumpulan Dikir Barat

Gong dipukul rebana dipalu,
Awok-awok bertepuk riang,
Nyanyian merdu rentak melayu,
Seni dikir luas terbentang.

Pusaka Seni - Kumpulan Drama dan Teater Melayu

Tersembahnya seni teater
Dari minda ke jiwa
Mencari sifat
Mencipta gerak
Menjelmalah watak

All The Best Andayu

finally its done. Layar Andayu 2006 'Pondok' was a success. full house, no cockups in sound and lightings, the audiences loved it as what i can see from some of their tears. not forgetting the introduction by the dikir boys and the tarian girls, very refreshing and of course very entertaining.

since i'm the sound and lighting man, i wanna say thanks to stagearts theatre management team for the job well done. every que i gave you all, you did it perfectly. for my stage manager and assistant stage manager, dya, zila and aisha, sorry if i hurt you by my words during the production. it was certainly unintentional. but now i know why aisha wanted to be in the stage menagement. talking in the intercom with them, including the TMT personnels, was great fun actually, we can chat about anything, gossiping, making jokes, best ah. and of course the talkative one was certainly her. aku punya hutang bila mau bayar eh? eheheeh

after the show, we rounded up everything. yana our president had finally stepped down and time for fadhil to do the job. as for heikal, rafi and me, we were satisfied. for marni and elfi and of course fadhil, its their turn to lead pusaka seni. hopefully for next year's GPA, i want you all to set your goal high. go for the first place. the GPA team of 2006 had showed great excellence so i'm sure next year they can do better.

i hope the andayu website will keep updating for any events. cos the internet is the easiest place to find information and the best place for the public to know about upcoming events by Andayu is through the Andayu website. God bless the internet.

i already miss all of it. sampai terbawak2 dalam mimpi. well i'm moving on now. all the best, Andayu.

hope to see Andayu's next theatre production, InsyaAllah.

to heikal and rafi, tak sangka eh, tiga kepala lebih baik dari satu. of all the production, hari raya production 2004 by heikal, layar andayu 2005 by me, i think layar andayu 2006 adalah yg terbaik. thanks rafi for giving me and heikal the chance to direct together with you. to idah, bayangkan, dia yg berbadan kecil, boleh membina sebuah pondok hanya dgn menggunakan tali dan bamboo sticks. dia ni memang ada talent ah. suruh dia buat goalpost kecik pun cantik ah, boleh buat main bola dgn kawan2.

k dah lah. semoga berjaya, andayu.

The End of Fun

this is it. today i'll be going to school for 3 days and 3 nites. of course this is for the production. these 3 days will be my last time i'll be in school, with Andayu. i will make sure i use all the time i have for these days.

Free tickets sold out already. but i suspect same thing going to happen. people book more than 10 tickets but only 5 came. that's something i don't wanna see.

i'm going to miss them. i'm going to miss all of this. haiz...
