AH HA! Back to blogging after so many days of no updates! Yeah! Firstly, a great success to my concert with the ITE Jazz Band, Jazzanova: It Had Better Be Tonight. 19 December 2009 is indeed a night to remember... Good cheers to all my band mates! Weeks of practice and 3 full days of rehearsal at the Auditorium. It was fun though. Get to play the Grand Piano is indeed a good opportunity for me and great big band! Thanks for putting the effort to make this concert and great success. My efforts and hard work of music arrangement, putting the score note by note was all pay off. My music arrangement was brought nicely with the help of Mr Eric and you all! Break A Leg! & We Did It! Yeah! Thanks to Aifa for singing my arrangement of Let's Never Stop Falling in Love and Fever. Chills of Fever! Love that song so much. I have uploaded the videos @ Facebook. Check It Out! A Story Sadder Than Sadness. One of my favorite Korean soundtrack from a Movie. Thanks to Isa for playing that such a beautiful tone of melody line. Awesome! Most of the audience I heard love that song too. Including my SweetHeart, right Sayang? Hehe! I will upload the photos soon. Then after concert, went to party @ Marina Square eating MacDonalds. Then went back home with the West people! Haha!

On the 23 Dec, went to Vivo with Fariz, Saiful and Fareezah & Helmizar. Had many photos taken. It was cool and awesome. Hahaha! Some of the photo can be seen at my Facebook. Then, went home, about 8.30pm, went out again but with a car! We VROOOMMM to Chua Chu Kang Park to eat dinner. Same bunch of guys of course. Hell happening. Loud music in the car while shouting here and there. HAHAHAHA! Funny!

So, today, never go out as I know got school work to finish up. Haha! Maybe, tmr night, meeting with Fariz and Saiful @ West Mall. So, will upload the pictures soon.

Let the video do the talking....

It has been ages since I update my blog. Seriously, no mood and sometimes lazy to update. School was school so, got project discussion going on and of course, CA is just next week. Currently on the process of taking my driving license. Left with my Final Theory and Practical. Hehe! So, today the Muslim's celebrate Hari Raya Haji. Wake up in the morning about 6 a.m. Then wait for my Uncle to fetch me, ride his motor to Ba'Alwi Mosque. Intend to go to Musalmah Mosque but cannot find. Haha! Then, after the prayers, went home to BB and ate breakfast @ Kopi Roti. We intend to eat Nasi Briyani but WHAT? We both kena bird shit on the way home. Angry but, nvm. Its rezeki for our belief. Hehe! So, now, going to take a bath and go out for celebration with love ones. Take care people... Have a nice weekend! Love you... :)

Firstly for me to update. Seriously, I have forgotten what has been going on. So many projects and show, works and etc. All about school. So, yeah. Last week, had the ITE Staff Award Dinner Presentation @ Orchid Country Club. Saiful and me need to perform for the show about 30 minutes. With the lack of rehearsal time, thank God, we manage to put up an AWESOME performance. Thanks to the support of my CemTa TIC, Mr Lim Pang Kwee and my CA, Mrs Angie Lee. Most of them love our performance as we put first on the list. The audio system was awesome! Sound so grand and live. Woohoo! Wasted, no video was taken. Haiz. Then, I need to conduct the Trumpet Fanfare team titled, "The Shortest Fanfare Ever" composed by Mr Eric to welcome the GOH, Mr Bob Tan. It was great too. Then, after the whole performance, stayed back to take photos and then went to Northpoint to eat late dinner/supper. Ate @ Long John Silver with my trumpet people. Joel, Farhin, Wirdani, Saiful and me. It was shiok lah. Laugh like nobody's business. Then we went home.

Next day, after Jazz Band Practice, Mr Lim offer to treat us dinner. So asked nicely - Mr Lim, Seoul Garden can? ^^ He replied: Can! Can! HAHA! So, me and Saiful board his car to Tampines Mall for our dinner. We sat there for 3 hours. We ate a lot man! Until I got stomachache, go toilet and then, come back to continue eating. Then, we took bus home. Laugh in the bus like nobody's business also. HAHA!

Hello! Have not been updating for days because busy preparing other stuffs and my music projects. Firstly, I wanna update on the concert recently I attend to which is Simfoni Filem Nusantara by The Singapore Malay Orchestra which is on the 18th October 2009. Artists such as Taufik Batisah, Elfee Ismail, Fuad Rahman, Hariani Hassan Bakri, Rossa and Intan Nuraini from Indonesia. The concert was AWESOME! seriously, I enjoy every tiny little bits. The music was perfect, nice music arrangement for the whole orchestra, every is NICE there. I felt emotions running through my body when Taufik sang Seribu Tahun, which is the song covered by Imran Ajmain. Imagine, it is Taufik's own composition of Seribu Tahun, the composer sang it live with about 50 piece orchestra. Tears runnning down my eyes when the lyrics came out from his mouth, singing it in a soothing voice. Rossa and Intan made a humongous shocked to us. They are both really talented singers. Ayat Ayat Cinta, Atas Nama Cinta & Dilemma. Nice music to hear them live. The ticket is really worth buying seriously. After the concert end, rush out with Saiful to queue up for the autograph session. OH MY GOD!!! Rossa was SOOOOOOOO CANTIK GILER!!! MELELEH SIAK AKU!!! She was so gorgeous with her Arabian like gown dress. Manage to talk to her abit. Intan Nuraini too. She is so cute. Cantek BANGET!!! Then, down to Elfee, Hariani and Fuad Rahman. Taufik was unable to attend the autograph session as he has other urgent matters. Before that, I was interviewed by SURIA, Mediacorp. Haha! Thank God, they never telecast it on the SURA news. I was so embarrassed, but I really had fun. Then, went back with Saiful, taking bus home. Photos are HERE

Yesterday, called my cousin cause wanna go out to IMM to do some shopping. So, at 8pm, went out and I spend nearly $300 on printer toners and a laptop bag. Like that bag a lot. So slim and handy. Then, went to Giant to spend on groceries then makan @ Aiman beside Almukminin mosque. Saw Thurmizi and chat for awhile. Makan then went home. Reach home about 11pm. Then, install the new toner and start printing some lyrics and scores for rehearsal. Slept @ nearly 3. Music arrangement for Tunggu Sekejap has been finalized and done. So happy. The music is really nice.

I got performance on the 30th October @ Orchid Country Club for ITE Staff Award Dinner. So, will be performing with Saiful & Isa. School for the past few days were okay. I LOVE the new semester's timetable, accept for Monday and Thursday. But, overall not bad. No school today because Mrs J. Yeo is on course. So, class cancelled today. Went for Friday prayers, met Chep and we went home together. After that, change and went to ITE Clementi for music rehearsal. Try out the Tunggu Sekejap which I arranged for trumpet, sacophone and piano. It well quite well. I like it very much. Haha! Then, do some other music that we are going to perform. End about 5pm. Then, asked Mr Cho to send us @ Clementi MRT cause wanna makan Nasi Ayam, then to LAN Gaming. Haha! Played for an hour. L4D. Damn fun. But, always hate the connection distruption. Good game with Saiful. Laugh so loud. Then, went back home by bus together. Tomorrow going to College East for Jazz Band rehearsal. Having a Charity show @ Civic Plaza, Orchard on 14 November. So, those who are free, you are welcome to come with your family and friends. So, that's it. So tired typing already. Hehe! So, take care people! With much love... I Wish You Love, song from Engelbert Humperdinck. Ciao!
