The Young & Restless

Whoa..a long stretch of weekend since I last blogged..was rather busy the whole week going out LOL..

About 11 plus, went to pick up Dina, Kanesh and his ever so tall brother (surprises you when he tells you how old he only is). We decided 1 U again as there have 2 options of TGV or GSC in case either one went full. Of course, who doesn’t fancy new environment, new ground. Dina was having thoughts of watching Corpse Bride but in the end, we still stuck to original plan. While waiting for the show, Kanesh brough a really portable digicam..and we played with it like little kids..snapping pictures at the corner.

Some spoilers here..I love when Abby & Runt sang Spice Girls’ Wannabe..LMAO..that was one of the most memorable scene ever..and that War Of the Worlds parody towards the end came out a little silly as expected.

I tried to look for a present before we get lunch. Tried looking at accessory shops around the area. There’s one located at the end, with pink decorations all over it. Dina & Kanesh refused to enter..which of course I don’t blame them cos the shops had girly stuffs which me myself rather uneasy to enter LOL..But for Farah’s birthday sake, gotta take the risk. What I had in mind was a blue butterfly necklace of some sort..maybe she’ll like it since I noticed Farah’s designs are associated with a little butterfly by the side. I couldn’t find any suitable for her. I checked for more gift shops around. There’s one shop which has a some nice-looking lockets but unfortunately no butterfly design but a dragonfly. Went to Jusco and have a look..was getting pressures from Dina and the rest cos I took too long to find that special thing for Farah. Then I noticed at the counter of the left, there’s a row of jeweleries being displayed and there it is..a blue butterfly necklace..the perfect gift for her. One small problem though..the butterfly’s blue wasn’t exactly Farah’s favourite; blue water mineral cap. Ah..couldn’t have any more longer thoughts..price is lower than my max budget and it looked to be perfect enough..only not the exact colour though..and Vincci sounds very branded stuff LOL.

Had lunch at Burger King. Dina was suggesting of planning some trips to any of the northen islands or maybe a barbeque session at one of our houses. That would be great if we can start getting people to agree. We hung around till 5pm before we left to get some tea-snack at a restaurant named Grand City in Section 14. We ordered a really sweet-tasting kuih..which dang..I forgot the name again..sorry XD. I had to bite small pieces of it one at a time as the burger we had earlier on hasn’t finished digesting..plus to the fact this kuih was so sweet it makes the process even difficult..if you know what I meant LOL.

Sent them home respectively about 6 plus, had a little rest before I took my bath to go for the Raya Realiti show at Angkasapuri. It’s show for RTM which basically invites all the reality shows in this country such as MI, AF, Mentor, Audition, Both Astros Wah Lai Toi (Chinese) & Vanaavil (Indian) Talent Quest and of course their very own Bintang RTM. Surprisingly Who Will Win was missed out. Probably they’re way too many versions of it.

Went to priest’ house for dinner. Gave me a shock when we wore his dad’s batik LOL..the show stated to wear something formal but not that formal right..

I’ve never been there so needed priest to guide the way since he’s been for once. Surpassed through 2 tolls before we arrived. The main entrance to Angkasapuri lead us to the auditorium where the recording session’s being done live, Met the Farahnatics, Aris and his bros..tak sangka combined with the pinkies o_0..was wondering where Ostrova & the gang are. Later we moved all the way up no to interfere with the pinkies. Can’t imagine how their reactions forgone when Daniel appears LOL. Aiyah..couldnt ask my mum to record in time as they had asked us to switch off our hps. Show started with introducing all the singers..mostly winners and runners-up of their respective shows. For MI, the top 3 are present. And honestly the MI fans turn out were much more than expected compared to the AF fans. Pinkies were awfully lot seated near the stage while Mawi’s fans are hardly seen (Maybe the fact that he wasn’t there..LOL..better..wouldn’t wanna see his bloody fans mobbed down the whole auditorium). For AF, they only had Aidil, Akma & Amylea..not even deaftone Felix was there..probably back in Sabah with Marsha I guess.

The best applause for the night was Astro Vanaavil Talent Quest’s Jerry John..whoa his upbeat Devuda Devuda had the entire crowd hyped up..cos it was so energetic.totally rawked the auditorium. Then, somewhere in the midst, Farah & Nita did 3 duet numbers namely I Will Survive, Save The Last Dance and On The Radio. Was kinda hoping they each did solo but 3 songs in a row is more than satisfactory. As usual, both Farah & Nita looked ever stunning in their outfits. Well, the centre of the night was obviously Daniel and his screaming fans..someone even brought 2 banners that were used from the spectaculars..shows how much supportive his fans are. Before the show ended Astro Wah Lai Toi’s Talent Quest winner Kwok Fai and finalist Chee Ming, who awkwardly looked so much like Saiful of MI..I thought he came pula LOL. They both sang Lao Shu Ai Da Mi, HF’s favourite song hehe..and the gals goes crazy over them again…

The show ended rather late. Everyone was hoping to get Daniel, Nita & Farah posing for their picture but they never showed up. Many left disappointed but LOL shouldn’t be a problem as I’m sure many so they had so many taken in the earlier functions.

All the finalists at the end of the show.

Me & Yin. Was really surprised they didn’t invite her to sing in the show. After all, she’s the runner-up of ATQ (She was also last year’s MI Wildcard contender) and she did us proud by coming up runner-up too in the Hong Kong International New Artist Award.
