I came. I climbed. I conquered.

Oooh... I finally did something I've been wanting to do since I was young...Vertical Challenge!
not that bad... climbed 63 storeys high...
and the feeling was GREAT! when u finally reach the finishing point, it looks like heaven... the view was GREAT too.... the sea, the buildings surrounding from the very top... too bad no pictures are allowed to be taken... sigh...
the even greater things was the support and the cheers!
my sis accompanied me going for this event and she had to wake up as early as me to get there....
thanks sis!
and also climbing at mid-point, u hear ppl cheering and clapping from above and saying "SOON! SOON! COME COME! ADD OIL!"... that's really motivating...
and when u reaching 60th storey, u will see the LIGHT! and u know, just a few more steps and all this will be over :)
Yay! I'm proud to say that I've done it!!!
Next up, Mount KK!!! haha...

And then there was one....

email account...
ahhh... and now I have like tonnes of it... be it hotmail, yahoo or gmail...zzz
dunno which username and password for each of the email accounts... cham lor...
just started my gmail account only... becoz I got a brand new phone and need google account for start. so I got no choice to start another brand new account..
but then i just lovin' it... luckily I didn't go for iphone, like everybody else does..
didn't regret my choice of my android phone and it was within my budget too
but it was really a steep learning curve to use this phone and I was discussing my phone with my bro coz we are using the same OS system...exchanged what nice apps to use etc...
my family was commenting that i bought this phone with impulse... cannot wait for the one month contract to be over... and a bit like my bro also... haha...
I really buy things on impulse... kinda make me happy of owning it too :)

Superheroes

Over the weekend went to watch Ironman 2 in cinema...
seriously, I've never missed out any Marvel or DC superheroes movie in the cinema...
except the hulk... haha.. coz I never liked the greenie and angry superpower hero...he looks more like a villain to me than hero...
Actually all superheroes movie are almost the same i guess.. There's villains, there's hot babes, there's fighting-bang! boom! pow! wham!... there's nothing unexpected in the end coz superheroes always win! if they don't win, you will be bloody disappointed right? like how can the villains win and rule over the world etc...
so, ironman 2 was no exception...
but stay tune until the very end of the film credits...thanks to the aunty sitting beside us telling us that there's still some clip at the end...it's a slight preview of what is the next superhero movie out in cinemas... not that soon though...mayb gotta wait for another year or so :)

Happy Mother's Day

This Sunday is Happy Mother's Day...
so remember to give ur mom a good wish...
show that u care for her very very much :)

so, sempena this mother's day,
wanna try to write something for my mom...
though I think I can;t write a good one,
but still I try my best...=P

"How lucky I am born to someone like you,
To feel loved and cared for,
You gave me the best of everything,
You taught me how to love,
How to be a good person like you.
You were always there for me no matter what,
You give me hug when I needed comfort,
You give me wisdom when I needed advice,
You mean more than anything in this world,
You will always be in my heart,
I really love you mom,
Thank you for loving me"

Something About You

I don't know what you do to me,
but everytime I'm with you,
it's a natural high
It's like rediscovering Eden,
with chocolate coated rainbows and cotton candy skies
And everytime you look my way,
I wish I had the guts to say

There's something in your eyes,
Something in your smile,
Something in the way you move me
You make me want to sing,
make me want to dance,
make me want to cry
I'm falling in love with you

I think I'll hire Cupid
He'll make you see I'm more than your friend
You'll be tossing and turning,
counting the hours till you see me again
And when we meet,
you'll kiss my hand,
and say the words I've longed to hear

There's something in your eyes,
something in your smile,
something in the way you move me
You make me want to sing,
make me want to dance,
make me want to cry
I'm falling in love with you

Zamina mina Zangalewa

this song will be featured as World Cup song 2010 as well...
the phrase and rhythm is too catchy...

"Zamina mina eh eh
Waka waka eh eh
Zamina mina zangalewa
anawam ah ah

jungoh eh eh
jungoh eh eh"

it was originated from Cameroon...
check it out here for the history of this song...

ahhh... it's too addictive coz it's really fun singing and dancing with it :p

Opera or musical?

How do you differentiate between opera or musical?
Here's what I've found out and putting it in layman terms...
Opera uses music to tell the entire story, even when two actors are speaking to each other, they use lyric and music to express...
Musical is plainly using music as background of the story... they also sing some parts of it, but also have some normal conversation speaking moments...

Recently have been a little artsy... I listened to this great Boston channel on classical music and their website has this recorded opera singing on "Madame White Snake". Feel free to listen to it...

Someday I should spend my time and money to go watch an opera...
