Tomorrow is my 24th birthday. Yay! I'll be another year OLDER. At one point I was in denial that I am getting older, but now I am glad because I really couldn't stand those young little teenagers. Plus, I'm the second youngest in my team, so I don't feel any older at all!
Last weekend, my friends and I went for a Tour le KL. But I felt more like the tourist than the real tourist a.k.a a colleague from Manila who will be here for 6 months. Simply because I have not been to KL Tower before, and it's been ages since I step onto Petaling Street and Central Market. I can't even recognize the shops in CM anymore! They have Malay Street and Chinese Street now...which I find unique. Anywayz, we were running around here and there around KL for the whole day that my feet ached so much. Digi was agressively promoting their Fuyoo package around Bintang Walk. A little note on that: To be a Digi promoter, you MUST know how to break dance or slide a basketball on your arms and neck. Pretty cool, huh?
This weekend, I'll be going to Singapore with me dad, bro and youngest sis. Yay again! It has been such a long time since I last went there. I see my money go down the drain, as I have to pay half of the expenses. My mom will be enjoying herself for a week in Nepal. Everyone is flying around the globe these days. I guess with Air Asia, "Everyone Can Fly". Me myself is planning a trip to Bandung & Jakarta in August and maybe to Langkawi or Cameron before that.
Anywayz, I'm looking forward to my trip to Singapore. Asta La Vista KL for 3 days!
I love Gwen and her Harajuku girls, so I can't help but putting up this video. I believe there're a lot o Gwen haters out there, or lovers turn haters simply because they don't like Gwen's new tune after no doubt. But I like both Gwen. I mean, if you're a true fan, you got to stick true to the end, right?
I think by now everyone who frequents this blog knows how big a crush I have on Kimura Takuya. I adore him a mountain high for that in everything that he does, he exudes a certain charisma and his talent and skills in what he is doing is rewarding with the amount of fans he has. Furthermore, his good looks is undeniable. From a skinny man "macam lidi" when I saw him in his earlier drams, the him now looks good than ever. For instance, in Karei-naru, I don't know if it's just me or what, but even though the other casts are probably wearing the same expensive clothes and suits that Kimura was wearing, he still stands out among the rest. The suits that he was wearing is as though was made specially for him, every lines of the clothes fall perfectly. The last time I was awed seeing someone wearing a suit was probably a few years back during Oscar Red Carpet (hint:Orlando Bloom).
Rain, or Bi, is another man I adored. Apparently, he is also my youngest sister's idol. There're prolly a lot of great dancers out there, but somehow Rain's image stick in my mind all the time. His tall and good build makes his dances seem much more energetic and attractive to watch. Once I switched on his concert video, I cannot stop watching till the end. And everytime, and I really mean everytime, whenever I watch his videos, I am in awe. Furthermore, Rain is fast becoming a brand name. He's SUPER big now, not only in Asia but also making names in the Western world, which is pretty difficult to penetrate for an Asian artist. I wish him all the best, but a part of me somehow wish that he will not get TOO big for I still like him exclusively as a Korean entertainer, not a world entertainer. For he is Rain, and is at his best, when he speaks Korean, sings Korean and acts Korean.
Tun Mahathir makes it to my final list of people I adore. There has been a lot of controversy revolving around his life, but which politician isn't it? I don't know whether the bad things that some anti said about him are true or not, and I do not care because I truly appreciate all the great things that he has done for this country. I admire his wits and his wisdom, and especially his courage to voice out his mind without minding what people will say about him. In my opinion, there is no other greater leader than him in this decade. I even shed some tears when reading some articles about his walk of life during his reign as a PM of Malaysia.
