SUKMA-12 is ARRIVING! SOON SOON SOON.Terengganu here we come.
Althought you may have the biggest land in Malaysia filled with talents(Sarawak) or you may have the best facilities(Selangor), but this small island who houses the world number 2 in badminton, Lee Chong Wei and world number 1 in Squash, Nicol David, Penang has much to offer! So watch out.
Penang is sending the alarm to all you contenders of glory.
And I want to make sure Penang yet again show their superior in the local scene for KARATE. For a long time Penang has the best talents for karate and even the national training center for karate is in Penang. We are going to triumph again! Dominating the event which will be held in Marang. This year, we're going out in style and living up to that "style"... If you get what I mean. Trying our best to make a clean sweep of all the gold medals at stake again!
So you guys out there, "Better Don't Play Play!"
PENANG BOLEH!

The end of yet another term. School ended. What a term it has been! CRAZY! But, phew, glad I made it.Anyway, as the school term ends, so did the season 7 of American Idol. A great year it has been. The talents were sky high and I was totally hooked on this year compared to any other seasons, the finale was so awesome, that the awesome judge, SIMON COWELL also agreed, here is a quote "This is the first time, I didnt care who won". So as you all know, the final battle with guys of ONE name but TWO sizes! Woo, it was a huge struggle between them two who never had been in the bottom 3! The is just swell!
One whole season and were reaching the end. From millions who audition and now only two stand on this stage. Here are your IDOLS, DAVID ARCHULETA and DAVID COOK. A sparkling year it has been for IDOL.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The results are in. Winning by a wooping 12% of the total vote. America, you voted that DAVID...DAVID... DAVID....DAVID COOK is your new American Idol!
WOO, I seriously dont know if I was satisfied with the results or not, because this year I supported both Davids all the way, well I started support for Cook a little later. At the beginning, the consistent LITTLE DAVID was dominating the show and my ears till the rise of BIG DAVID with this oh-so original cover versions of songs. It was a tight competition. I agree with Simon, I didnt care who won, they both are worth it.
To be honest. In the finals, I thought David Archuleta deviated it. All 3 rounds, I thought he outdone his rival. For sure that his vocal talents are way good. And American Idol could add Ballad into its raging genre. But too bad, I think Cook's genre was more appealing to the Idol fans and maybe many of them wanted to avenge Daughtry's lost two seasons ago. As you can see two "near" Idols who share the same genre with Cook - alternative rock - Bo Bice and Daughtry never got crowned but they made it big. So I guess maybe its time to crown an Idol in the name of the fallen.
But all in all, it was worth watching all the way. Now, I'm sad that Idol ended. There is a vacant 1 hour in my week due to the absence of Idol. But no worries. Lately, I've been so hooked on to GOSSIP GIRL - you know you love me, XOXO! Its really a great series. Really. Its up the good series wall together with Ugly Betty, Grey's Anatomy, Friends.......(so much more)
LOVE TV, Its getting better and better.
ps: Cant wait for both Davids debut album!

The season is back,not that season, spring/summer collection time!
The season where you walk into a classroom and you'll smell something
The season where the most asked question is
WHO ATE DURIAN!? I CAN SMELL IT!
Yes, the Durian season is back. And there is no escape eating this once a Fear Factor delicacy - In Malaysia, it is REALLY a delicacy! - You are bound to get caught by anyone when you eat Durian, no matter how many mints you eat. You'll be caught Red-Breath-ed! That smell which is aromapeutic to some and pungent to others!
In Malaysia, Durians are so welcomed that there are so many kinds of them. Given werid names, from "Beautiful Legs" to "Red Prawn" to "13 Kids" to "Number 31".... Please note that the names are directly translated from hokkien(A very common dialect in Penang, but not originated from)
Many fear for this king of fruits, but what is there to fear about this... I guess the real things people do fear about are abstract! Like the fear if we made the right choice.... Or the fear if we are making other happy with us being around...
These are the fears that take the best of us. This are the fears we must overcome. To not fidget on them and then we will be back to our carefree moments like a child... Bliss!
So fear not my child :D
- sound so old :P
