Introducing the craziest fools ever..., the only people that can put a smile on my face and really make me laugh...sincerely...

All of us are studying in the Faculty of Artistic and Creative Technology. This picture were taken during the Kalut Restage photoshoot. (Explains the black and white...) We're all housemates. Here's a a little introduction, sorted by age.

ABG DAT
The eldest among us. Hehehe. 27 this year. From Jitra Kedah. Studying in Diploma in Acting in the same faculty I'm in. Same intake, Nov 2004. Currently in part 5.

SYALI
24 years old. From Kota Tinggi, Johor. Same class as Abg Dat. Kindda skinny.... nop, really skinny actually. Not drugs, just a surgery he had. And ever since, he has been trying to gain weight in vein.

ME
23 years old. From Kangar, Perlis. Taking Diploma in Screen Arts. The saddest among the seven. Still trying to find myself i think...

LAN
My bro. 22 years old. From Kuching, Sarawak. Same class as me. Doesn't even look Malay actually. But a lot better than some Malay looking Malay. Seriously...

AZHAR
An acting student. 22 years old from Segamat, Johor. Already in Part 8. Super duper senior. Hehehe. Just moved in but he fits in well.


ZAIDI
Also an acting student. Same age as Azhar and Lan. From JB, Johor. Part 8 like Azhar. Moved in with Azhar and it's been really fun bro!!

MALI
A theater management student. Same intake as me, Abg Dat, Lan and Syali. The youngest though. 21 years old from Alor Setar, Kedah. Known Abg Dat even before studying here.

That's the line up for the Lucky 7. I't been really great you guys!! Thanks!!

DAMNN!!!

It's been a while since my last post. No other reason, just LAYYYYZEEE....!!! It's the 4th week of my 5th semester and I'm still @#&%#&*. I got a lotta things at hand but I'm feeling down now. GRHHH....!!! What's happening to me? I just hate this feeling of being lonely. There's a lotta people around me but none of them is real. Everybody's so... PLASTIC including me. Everyday I went to class with no make up but still i manage a terrific fake smile. S**t!

Some people say it's ok to be selfish sometimes. If you want something so badly, screw friends! F**k brotherhood! Who cares? As long as you get what you want. But what's the meaning of success if you have no one to share it with? You'll just end up being something I hate most, a LONELY SON OF A B**CH! OK maybe you won't be lonely but you'll be left with your own kind. The kind of people who'll stab you in the back the first chance they get.

I still believe that the only way to a a real success is together. Where not everybody's a winner but everybody's happy. Is it possible or am I a total dreaming fool? Even some so called professionals are saying that money's more important than anything. But I still can't make up my mind. It's hard to give up my love for family, friends and arts for something so HAZARDOUS as MONEY!! And I don't think it's ok to hurt or use someone for your own happiness. So you hurt someone to feel good. To anybody's who's been living this kindda life, F**K YOU!! No matter how successful you become, you're still no taller than my ankle to me. I'll always look down on you. You don't deserve this life you're given. Drop dead!! But that's just me...

REAL S**T REALLY STINKS!!!

BIZZZZZZZZZZY...!!!

It's been a while. But I'm still busy with a theatre competition. I'm in the set department. So everyday from morning till night, I'll be at the workshop. There's not much let to be done but I've gotten very tanned along the way. All the actors are busy with practise at the studio. Everybody's very busy at the studio, at the workshop or going out to get stuff. We'll be doing an adaptation from Roy Coonie's "Run for Your Wife" - KALUT(Malay adaptation). It's a comedy. Those who are interested, you are all welcomed to see the show.

After All These Years...

One of my favorite song...

After All These Years

Breathe in the night
That crushed a tired sunrise
Born again the day
Brings young naivety

A laptop souvenir is worth its weight
In silver a golden son
You'll be home again
And I'll be home again

Mend in my sleep
I'm boxing under water
Waddle on the wake
Waking on a summer day

After all these years
Forget about all the troubled times

And every father's pain
Casts a shadow over a broken son
You'll be whole again
And I'll be whole again

Munificent, artless and ascetic
Playing like a scared
Enthusiastic pawn

All those years
I was hurting to feel
Something more than life

EXTREME DAY!!

Last Friday, I after staying up all night, I went to Bukit Kiara Extreme Centre to watch a wall climbing competition. I'm not a big fan because I'm not a really competitive kind of person when it comes to sports. Really. I prefer more relaxing activities such as camping, hiking and kayaking. Anyway, I went there because a friend from my hometown was there competing and I was there to give her some support.
I can't really say how I started the day since I never ended the previous day. So let's just say I started driving out of the college around 7.30am. And I arrived at Bukit Kiara around 8.30am. It's kind of surprising that I managed to get there so quick considering it's my first time driving there and I relied entirely on signboards. (lucky brat!!)
My friend arrived at the Centre around 9.30am and the competition started around 11.00am. (damn!!) It started so late that I only get to see the women's first qualifying round. Then I had to go back at 12.00 noon. But it's OK since I get to see my friend. I got home around 1.00pm and I went straight to bed. I was so tired that woke up around 10.00pm. I was planning to post this that very day but...

Here are some pictures from that day:

This is Idah, my hometown friend.
Well she lost that day... Better luck next time!

That's her boyfriend smiling back there. (Sorry guys...hehehe)

Here In My Room

For your information, I'm currently studying Screen Arts in a local university. I'm in the 4th semester and one of my individual assignment for our Music Video subject was to come up with a creative music video. No typical love stories allowed. After a few days of pondering and planning, this is what I came up with using the song Here In My Room by Incubus. It's a little blurry since I only used my webcam to shoot and Windows Movie Maker to do the editing. And yes, that's me in the video. But our lecturer said it's the idea that matters. So enjoy the show and do comment...
