What A Weekend!

Last weekend i think was the most fun i've had all year round in kl. Lets see, on saturday, my roommate n me went to Rock The World 7!! And on sunday the two of us plus another 2 friends went on a 1 day road trip to..... Malacca!!

Well, starting with the former, for those who dont know, Rock The World 7 is a rock (wat else rite) concert featuring 48 (+2 singaporeans) malaysian bands jamming it out from 3pm to nearly 12 on 3 stages in 1 stadium!. *Pause to catch breath*. I wouldn't say its the best of malaysian bands since bands like Disagree, Deja Voodoo Spells n Frequency Cannon didn't perform amongst others. But with a line up like Pop Shuvit, Love Me Butch, Lo, Dragon Red, Tempered Mental n OAG amongst others playin, it will be a stupid thing to miss out rite? (actually, seeing Lo on the list of performers itself was enough to get me goin :D) Esp since the tickets cost only 25 bucks plus u get 1 t-shirt (which aaron [my roommate] was so happy to get XD), 3 ringgit of talk time on i talk and i was really lucky to be one of those who manage to catch not 1 but 2 flyin CDs being tossed by the artist themselves!!

We arrived at the stadium bout 1 hour b4 d show , took lrt and had to walk bout 2km to the stadium (great way to excersice :P) and once we were in was quite surprised to see Staduim Merdeka so.. well.. small... or was it maybe all the tents n equipment on the field that made it look small. Anyway, had a pleasent surprise early on, j.lo actually tapped my shoulder and talked to me! Well, actually all he said was "hey dude, watcha doin here ?, need anything?" n i was "urm.. urm.. we are waiting for my friends cousin at the VIP gates" n thn he was "oh ok, VIP gate is over the other side.. u guys enjoy the show yea!". Actually we were standing at an enterance, want to wait for my roommates cousin , but actually not suppose stand there, and Lo is like the organizer of this whole event, so b4 the show, he's like walkin around with a walkie talkie n makin sure everything is in order. haha... Didn't get to snap a pic of him cos i dont have a camera :( .. dang.. gotta add tat to my wish list.

So long story short, the show rocked la. But the people there.. aih.. duno where do i begin. Really get to see the malay culture man.. i think 80% of the audience are malays.. They come dressed in their goth, punk, rhastafarian clothes n attitude... really lemah man. But like aaron said la, if they don't support the music scence, who will rite? Given that although most of em are here to just jump around n shove each other like monkeys jackasses, if they didnt turn up, i think half the stadium would be empty. Oh well, gotta expect this rite.. at least no one got hurt ( i think). There's a band, Broken Scar , they are really good!! have their cd (one tht i got for free) . And they sound really cool!!.. Su ling, i think u'll like them since u so into Frequency Cannon n all.. :D. Well, we left the rock show at around 11+ with 3 bands yet to perform cos we scared the lrt would've close if we left any later. Too bad didn't get to see OAG play.. Guess theres time for at next time la.

Rite, so after came back, yum cha, cakap cakap, had about 5 hours of sleep b4 we went on our roadtrip. Was fun as well, ate breakfast, lunch n dinner there. Brought my friends to A'Farmosa (which there were some 'interesting' photos taken XD), Jonker Street to buy stuff (which they pasterd me to bring them to my aunts shop which i did and they got discount summore.. :D btw, i'm not sayin that i didn't wanna bring u guys there la.. i would've anyways, if not why i mention dat my aunt has a store there rite :)) . Wanted to go Stadhyus but it was rainin.. so had to cancel dat part.. so where did we go whn it rained?? haha.. go play pool at senyum! lolz.. As usual for lunch went to eat chiken rice balls and for dinner went to eat satay celup. Till this very day, i wonder why KL got no one sell satay celup. N lok lok is NOT satay celup ya...

So after dinner, we headed straight home with a damn full stomach. 3 meals weh.. all heavy ones summore.. haha. guess its the holiday season (not for me though) so nvm la rite.. hehe.. *goin on a diet d* . Only thing to spoil the mood during the weekend was both Man Utd and Barcelona lost.. and Chelsea won.. cipet.. -.-'' . Oh, champions league draw.. lookin 4ward for Barca vs Liverpool since almost everyone in my condo tat i mix wit supports liverpool and i'm the sole barca supporter!

Anyways, i'll be back this thursday till the 3rd (sendiri take holiday). So those of u from outstation wanna come visit me, ya'll most certainly welcome. To those back home d, u know the drill ;) . Don't know if i'll be going frazers this christmas, was suppose to , but with my grandma's health condition in a bad shape (accordin to mom n aunt) , we may not make it this year :(. But who knows rite.. it is the time for miracles :).

Guess i'd be signing off since i have class awhile more.. cheers!
