Another new breath

Hai people. Happy Monday to all of you. It is a great day right when we feel that we are still alive and still stand still within the depression of heart and world conflicts. By having the chance to breathe the same air as yesterday, living under the same sun and the ability to depict our surrounding, are something to be credited with priceless of enjoyment. So should we think about us first before we can spread and share the love and joy we have with people we care and love with. Sounds a bit drama right? but all these above lines are really mean to me and I am proud to have chances to know the world and also to know you.

I watched another Indonesian piece of works – Love is cinta which is proposed by Is. Well, for me I take it as a very general way to appreciate what I have now. Today was the first time I watched this movie. Wow, the movie tells us about how auspicious are we in this universe to have a life compared to those who lost it but in the movie “Ryan’s wish has been granted by the angle of death, which is he has the last chance to live in the world but he has to live in someone body, just because he has not doing something important during his life time- saying that he is falling in love with a girl named Cinta. He has been giving 3 days to do so before he has to return to his creator. At the end of his days, he manages to express one last expression – love, to his parents and the way how he convinces his parent that he is “Ryan’, is so totally heartbreaking and overwrought but the he manages to use the days he left wisely but full with wretchedness and awe-inspiring scenes and moments.

Is tells me that, apprciate what u have and if u happen to have someone that love then that is the worthing u should not lose to coz not all people have the chance to be lucky as u are. The ideas are granted by me. Thanks Is.

It is a good when u have lot of friends

It is Sunday and what is the significant of having Sunday to me? Well, nothing much I can elaborate more about my Sunday. But I fond some blissful and being a bit reserve for the whole Sunday. Yesterday I went out to have some performances and auction activities. The vibes were not that bad coz lot of fun and joy. What came to my surprise was, people who were in the hall need to be in a black blazer? Sounds formal yet classy and urban. I grasped the opportunity to be there even I came with some fruitless mood and ideas at the inauguration of the event. It was just a temporary ones. This could be cool. Thanks for my frends such as Maria, Jocely, Jeff,Sharol and some of other bunch of great friends. Well,Criz and Odee cant make it. Maybe some other times guys.Sorry coz i didnt take any snaps during the moment.Oh ya, Ct performed her new single piece of mind- Cintamu, during the event.At the begining of the song, the melody is started with the fine tune of opera (i like opera esepecially sperano or counter tenor).Yeah.. nice to be at my room again..i mean in Kajang..hehehe. Oh ya, not to forget to greet Helmi’s friend because he is just being a “pengantin baru”..hehehe. Selamat pengantin baru and semoga berbahagia selalu. Thanks for the invitation ya. The invitation has been granted with full of contentment of my heart. Sorry coz I cant make it. Sunday, it was raining here but for short only. Humid and I cant jog or do some work out activities due to my region lumbar pain. Gosh..it is so tense and makes me not that contented at all even when I am sleeping or sitting.

Wow, Chinese New Year (CNY) is just around the corner and I would like to take this opportunity to wish my dear family, friends and my gentle readers “a happy CNY” hope the color of the CNY will bring lot more and more prosperities to all of us and nothing will cross the wish and blessing of us.To JC, hope u will b fine and keep well very very soon ya


Ok all, need to log out for now as I am going to prepare the dinner. Catch up with u later ya. Out of blue I get my mood to enter the kichten and I am ready to be on stage to perform vigorously as Jamie Oliver and my hands are ready to be used maximally. As usual, I am going to prepare some vegetable menus. I cut down my meat diet. Till then, stay tune.

Counter tenor Vs Soprano VS falsetto

Well, I guess most of you would try to figure them out by what are calling as Counter tenor or soprano? Ok, if am saying soprano straight to your ears then what will trigger out in your mind? would they be, Sarah Brightman? David DQ Lee?Andreas Scholl,or Vitas or Ning baizura?or few people that you may know who are related to the analogy of soparano thing. So how about Counter tenor? Before we move on to the entire of this blog (as am writing and creating the entire of it now) I am proudly allege my self that for me Soprano or Counter Tenor is something to die for! I am the hard die fan for this kind of mild-mannered music! Well, I do admire those who can hit some of notes with the head voice instead the chest voice. What is chest voice and head voice? Well, I let u know in shortly.


Well, based on my humble knowledge regarding to these kind of sounds, soprano is the same thing as counter tenor. Soprano is to be called or categorized as Female voice, which is also known as head voice. However, Counter tenor is referred to a man who is using his head voice. Head voice is a voice that is produce thru the head (yeah , the voice is passed via oral cavity but the way it is projected will totally end up with different kind of sounds) rather that the chest. If u are talking, the voice that is projected comes from your chest rather than the head. To have a richer , fuller and rounded sound especially to have the falsetto a.k.a head voice, is not that easy especially when you are doing the transmission of the sound (from chest voice to head voice or vice versa). It will need to have some tricks when u are getting scrawny and tired during the state of affair of hitting some notes using falsetto or any kind of high notes using chest voice. But Head voice is so much thrill to me. Most people don’t really , especially not all people like the way Ning Baizura sings a song. Well, she is one of the courageous and plucky singers to me as she comes out with unique voice and this is her originality. To be a prefect singer doesn’t mean you need to have a high voice as we people usually expected from their favorite singers. Nah, by having the ability to play with some tricks when u are tired in the midst of projecting your voices, the sounds should be fuller and richer and more rounded (the perquisite of having these elements, you need to improve and work hard on your diction (earing skill is required here)especially when the end of sounds are consonants), not too nasal – the sound comes from your upper oral cavity as the air is pushed by your tongue or the movement of your epiglottis is not that right to the correct position ) but if you are having nasal voice than you can adjust the voices that u are projecting by control your jaw movement. Fuh, am not that a professional in this kind of thing but just a slight idea coz am driven by the higher enquiry of human’s voice. To those who are expert in this kind of field, do correct me if am wrong and am glad to have your comments, dear my silent readers.Thank god, basic understanding about English phonetic and phonology when I was in my undergrad session helps me, at least, to react to the sounds around me.But hey, i cant sing well but in case you want to join me in a bathroom, so am glad to entertain you will the very best i am. Just that dont try to be or pretending to be suffocated while am serving you with the voice of mine coz any harm which is uponed to the preformace will not be granted by any special treats from me due to the attempting of mine. People, sound makes your view of world to me more complete as it is going along to the color of the god’s creations. Well, people, enjoy the song ya. I love the voice of David Lee…and i love Opera vibes!!!!!

The Pieces Don't Fit Anymore (undiscovered)-James Morrison

I've been twisting and turning in a space that's too small
I've been drawing the line and watching it fall
You've been closing me in, closing the space in my heart
Watching us fading and watching it all fall apart
Well I can't explain why it's not enough
'Cause I gave it all to you
And if you leave me now
Oh just leave me now
It's the better thing to do
It's time to surrender
It's been too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit here anymore
Well you pulled me under so I had to give in
Such a beautiful mess that's breaking my skin
Well I hide all the bruises, I hide all the damage that's done
But I show how I'm feeling until all the feeling has gone


Mmmm
Well I can't explain why it's not enough
'Cause I gave it all to you
And if you leave me now
Oh just leave me now
It's the better thing to do
Well it's time to surrender
It's too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit anymore


Mmmm
Oh don't misunderstand how I feel
'Cause I've tried, yes I've tried
But still I don't know why
No I don't know why
I don't know why
Why I can't explain why it's not enough
I gave it all to you
And if you leave me now
Just leave me now
It's the better thing to do
But it's time to surrender
It's been too long pretending
There's no use in trying
When the pieces don't fit anymore
The pieces don't fit here anymore
The pieces don't fit anymore

James Morrison - Pieces Don't Fit Anymore

The Pieces don’t fix anymore

Out of blue I would like to have the above headline as the topic of today. I was driven by the song I am hearing now. James Marion is the man of today blog. He He. “The Pieces don’t fix anymore” is a nice song but it can be a bit poignant to be heard. Just that am feel so blue due to the words he has here. I mean the song tho. Really sounds placid and so art indeed. Too much of listening this kind of song is going to killing my sense of spreading love and even making love which is based on the true foundation of feeling rather that covetousness of me. By considering the covetousness as the priority of me (it is just a case of study huh) then can it means that the dark side might be too dominant within me as it may radiate in my veins, huh? I sms “the pieces don’t fix anymore” to someone just now. Nah by telling you this, hope that am not getting any conjectures of gaining contemptible attention. Well, people, just listen to the song then u will or perhaps, may be able to grasp the sense am talking about. Hope that you all come with a great mental picture of the song and its wordings, at precise as what has been represented by Jamse. Well, I got it with me tho!

My freaking out sunday

As planned with Jlo aka ok (hereafter), both of us went out and gathered at somewhere nearby KLCC to meet up with our new biasness partner “in crime”. Guess what, even if, the meeting was intended to have a real business purpose but then it became a small congregation with one of our school mates, in fact, she was our form mates but hope she will be one of our biz partner relly2 soon as what have been planned..muhahahahha..





My best "Idok" and me. I have known her for more that 10 years!My ex-primary mates, ex- formates and ex-collueage.( to many exs with her huh?)









I have no idea what is the name of this food. It costed us rm 9.90 per bowl.But the taste is not that really fucking superb!




I guess that day was “eating” time coz we fiiled our stomach until it cant bear with load of foods. It start at one of “high” class cafĂ©- Thanks for Idok coz she treated me and my turn will knock your contentment at some other days, then after we settled down all those things and planned a new mission, then we as the crow flies went to KLCC. However, in the midst of gulping down the forlorn of not watching a movie, I threw a bare suggestion to have a Karaoke time. So Idok and Lysa agreed to follow my idea. So,I won the voice here .ahaha. Thanks for both of them coz so understanding at that moment. Clap3 to them. I guess it was quite long for me not to force my self without stinting to have a far-fetched laughing. The day was like to be fulled with lot of jokes and ideas to be laughed at. Not to mention, when the “sperano” thing came to the surface. In fact, I cant really accept that KLCC was mistaken to be “Pavilion’ by us. OMG, I cant really believe that such thing will be bumped to our focus. I guess the “exhilaration” to get as soon as possible to New KTV (Karaoke Center) driven us imprudent and so fanatical. We needed to chase the time tho as the day was getting dark. It was around 6pm I guess. We had great times during that evening. For the first thing to be done, I opened the curtain by singing a jingoistic song. I sang Sarawak’s song. I managed not to forget the lyric tho! Clap3 for me. Then, followed by the Counter-tenor of mine Hahahaha, don’t believe that I can do it just that I love to make Idok fooled around. But I guess I really can make it. I do? Give me one more try Ok idok?



I love the vibes that we had over there. I sang one of my favorite songs- Kau ilham ku by Mambai ans it is such a rhythmical song, indeed.







Ok, i cna handle it form here, and the way i sang songs was pretty straigtforwad.






Idok n Lysa- nanyi lagu sedih giler babeng..huhuhu..sayuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu






I can play this song with a guitar tho! Easy to be played I guess. We managed to had some pic snapping. This can be an authentication that we have been here. Again, I asked idok and Lysa if we can have a dinner at KFC for free.I do appreciate these girls coz, they did agree with me. Senang nak jaga le mereka ne kalo bawak berjalan2. Tak rugi gua cakap sama lu. Next station was Kotaraya. After million seconds of thinking and we coma to a decision to go to one of KFC’s Branch which is at Kotaraya. Heading to Kotaraya by using public transport is so challenging I guess especially when the dark comes to take part and it will be a widespread thing as that night (Saturday) to all. It was weekend, baby. Hahaha. Thanks to our friend a.k.a a manager in that fast food restaurant coz we had plenty of food to be tasted with a gluttonous craving. I love KFC Meltz. It is so flavorsome and lip-smacking to me. In fact, the Varity bucket did not attract even my single attention tho rather than I was licking my finger because of the appetizing of the Meltz. It tastes as Murtabak.

I love this meal..the meltz.........................looks simple but the taste is so superb to me tho.

Get ur tongue be there and and tell me your own appraisal about the food ok? I was having diarrhea for the next day and I totally assume that this could be due to Idok who has not washed her hand before having her meal. Just imagine that she was there with a bare hand and form the whole day and till that night she exposed to lot of epidemics in the region of her. Scary huh. In fact, after a few hours of the dinner she claimed that she had to be at toiltet frequently and it was diarrhea!! She touched my meal that why I was infected too..Arhhhh..shit huh.. Well, overall, that day wahs so splendid and am looking forward to have it more and more. Cant wait to have a small reunion among my school mates as suggested before. People will come to that get-together thing in a very different compared to their age, sttus and occupation . It was not in secondary school anymore tho.OMG, the time moves so fast even not only me who claim this state of affair. But then this is the journey of life which is to be mapped out as a collection of experiences .They come in may ways and poles apart representative to us by regarding the time and surrounding and the way we react to such these things. Well, I am totally dry today and writing this blog with a bare mind without sufficient of material and morphemes of word to be contextualized here. I am carving for more for the next reading to you, dear my silent readers. Agian, thanks for Idok and accidently toLysa for the companionship.Till then, have a nice day ya.
