Epitome of Beauty

My favorite of all, Dian Sastrowardoyo

The Lucky Kate!

The most awaited wedding of the decade was finally here. Kate Middleton and Prince William's! It was full of "uuhs" and "aahs" moment for me, my mom and my sista as we watched the live telecast on TV with other 24millions viewers from all over the world, including those that have been camping for days in London to witness this royal wedding. This number was reported to be higher than viewers of the latest World Cup. THE wedding dress vs 11 men chasing a ball in a single match? Come on...you must be joking if you choose the latter! We were non-stop commenting every details of the bride's dress, make up, hand bouquet, accessories & jewelleries...yadayadayada for the whole 3 hours and it must have been a major turn off for my dad as he had no choice but to watch it with us. hahahahahhaa.

Kate waves and smiles to the people all her way to the historic Westminster Abbey. I got to know from Giulliana Rancic's tweeter that Kate did her own make-up for her big day. Bold!

 Behold! Its Ze wedding dress! Exquisite and breathtaking ivory long sleeve lace satin gown with flattering V neckline and 8- foot-long-train and an understated tiara. This classy yet sophisticated gown was designed by....drum roll please....Sarah Burton, the 36-year-old creative director of British fashion house Alexander McQueen! The wedding dress was a darrrrlinggggg! It makes me wanna get married once again :p

Every inch of Kate's looks and moves is very "princessy". Did she attend any class for that? hahahahah

The "I Do" moment

Officially husband and wife. And may they live happily ever after.....

Some of the official photos from the Royal Wedding. Love..love...love this photo. It's so cute, ain't it?

Family Portrait.

I believe everybody is on the same page when it comes to Kate's sister and maid of honor, Pippa(cute name she got there) that almost stolen the bride's thunder on the big day. She was a big surprise yesterday looking amazing in a sleek ivory dress with cowl-neck also from Alexander McQueen. Beautiful!

 

God of Carnage

This was my short and simple comment on Vivy's posting on 22.04.2011. My answer was quite to the point, as it was simply taken from Microsoft words. hehehehhehehe. But I think, God must have heard me. You have no idea how much I love this Vivy girl! Been an ardent follower of her blog and being chosen is my only hope to meet her.

Received an e-mail from NuffNang on Monday morning notifying that I was one of the 3 lucky winners of the free ticket to watch " God of Carnage" at PJ Life Arts Theatre, Jaya One later that evening.The e-mail immediately chased my Monday blues away but I was surprised by the short notice. Should I or should I not? What kinda question is that? Hell to the yes, I'm going! No question. Quite frankly, I was more thrilled about meeting Vivy than the theatre itself.

Apparently the play is famous and has won Tony Awards Best Play in 2009. The movie is going to be released in 2012 starring Kate Winslet and Jodie Foster. It is about 2 married couples that meet up to discuss the misdemeanors of their sons. However, the decent discussion turned to be ugly as it progresses. It was really funny how these couples ended up ticking off each other, rather than resolving the main issue. My favourite line of the play was "Children consume our life". hahahahhaa. I couldn't agree more.



The stage and the only set for the play. I kept questioning myself whether this ONLY set is exciting enough to keep me entertained for the next 90 minutes?

But I guess I judged too son. The casts were not dissapointing and the set was no longer the centre point once the show started.The casts acting was outstanding and I was impressed with how they were disctinctively funny and entertaining throughout the 90minutes.

  

 Q&A session after the show since it was a media preview night. Glad I was part of the night :) Kudos to Lina Teoh, Will Quah, Maya Tan and Megat Sharizal for the 90minutes of fun!

My excitement didn't end there. Meeting Vivy after the show was the highlight of the night. She was exactly like how I envision her to be. Pretty and sweet, humble and soft spoken. It was such an expeience seeing her in person and these photos are precious! Thanks for the tickets and hope to see you again, Ms.Vivy.

I'm one proud duck. Weeee

Its a show worth paying for. Go and get yourself a ticket at http://www.pjla.com.my/ or call 03-79600439. The play will be one of many that will be showing during PJ Laugh Fest 2011 that starts from 28 April 2011 till 5 June 2011.

  

I'm in love !

Man ,this is unbelievably gorgeous!! I'm impressed! Jakun giler kan. Yelah, baru dapat DSLR camera la katakan. Padahal gambar ntah apa2 jer pun. hihihihihiihih.

I'm still exploring and experimenting what other wonders the camera can do. Trust me, I'll be a better photographer in no time. *confident gils*

I'm in love !!!

GLEE

What is it with GLEE? I am not into the show just yet...though I love music like crazy! However, I have been listening to "Forget You" a lot lately...ever since I heard it repeatedly during American Idol auditions and also Gwyneth Paltrow and GLEE casts version of this song. "Forget You" aside. That's not exactly the GLEE that I'm referring to, but rather my own GLEE.

What is this? I love surprises, especially when it is properly wrapped.

Snap! That logo is .......Tell me its real!

Amagad!!!! Its real people

I can feel the beat..running through my vain. Wohooooo!!!

Its mine . My newly acquired GLEE! I'm going to dance in the moonlight.
Yada...yada....

I gotta learn how to use this. I'm so excited and thrilled to start downloading a longgg playlist of mine, which obviously include my favourites, Anuar Zain , Afgan , Misha Omar, Mariah Carey, Christina Arguilera, Britney Spears to name a few.

And "Forget You" of course. Hahahahah

Adik manisss.....Mana mau pigi???

Do u ever wish life is as sweet as chocolate and as colourful as m&m? Well....maybe sometimes. But even if its not...you can always treat yourself with sweet things...

Looks familiar? Of course...its from Tutti Frutti. Froyo for health, ya'll! Ahaks! I'm kind of addicted to it. Love the fact that I can now enjoy something from the "dessert family" which is not sweet. You know...I'm not a sweet tooth person. My favourite flavour...vanilla and red velvet. Taken with loads of strawberries, cornflakes and longan. Yummehhh!

2 froyos to go....for me & Mr.Hubby! *yada...yada*

GOTCHA!

mAN.....Sitting in the car is not bad at all...when you have lappy with you. Again....why I think I need IPAD! hehehehhehe..*hint..hint*

I've been blogwalking for an hour or so.....besides updating mine. The connection here in Glenmarie is fantastic and that keeps me going!

Speaking of blogwalking...I finally had a "lost and found" moment with a girl a.k.a blogger that I had once discovered in this virtual world. Tried to search her again many times, but I couldn't because I have no idea at all of what her name is. It was love at first sight. I adore her style, particularly.




Dian Pelangi

 

Unusual Thursday..

Woke up with a big smile on my face because it is going to be an unusual Thursday for me. I was so anxious about today. Hope the day turns out to be just how I imagine!

Started off early just like usual working days. Mr.Hubs has an interview to attend to. I decided to take the day off to accompany him and to spend the rest of the day together. Besides, I'm working this Saturday. So, it's best to kill two birds with one stone. Thats how married couple steal the time to be together, without burdening other people. While little ones is in nursery, we get to spend quality time together at the expense of our annual leave. I don't mind at all cos it's all worth it!

Breakfast at Killiney Kopitiam. The chee chong fan (did I spell it right?) made by day.

See how dedicated I am! While waiting for Mr.Hubs in the car, I keep myself busy with the lappy, blogging and doing stuffs. Ni la antara sebab kenapa I nak beli IPAD ni. Huh? Alasanggg!

And this "SENYUM" song by Malique and Najwa keeps me smiling

Wordless Wednesday

The noble rockstar!

As I am updating my blog, I turned on the TV to American Idol 10. I must say, I'm a big fan of this show. I am a reality show addict, remember?

I was very dissapointed when Simon Cowell left the show. I love this man. He is a no-nonsense, to-the-point and a realistic human. He just fits the show like a glove. And it was really amazing how most of his prediction turned to be true throughout his judging days. It was really magical. Under Simon's spell...I would say.

And this season, without Simon and Paula...I predicted the show wouldn't be as much fun as it used to. When they announced the new judges....I was like WOOT??



I love J-LO. No doubt! Though I don't really think that she deserves to be one of the panel judges. Jenny from the block can't sing though she can moves! I think its all for commercial reason. That look,stylish outfit and charm will surely make the show more exciting each week.

But she is not the main attraction. Its the rockstar himself. Steve Tyler! My all time and only rock song favourite, "I dont wanna miss a thing" introduced me to this man. But of course, he has been famous long time back. OTAI tu! I yang lambat!

Watching him in American Idol totally changed my perception towards this rockstar. I used to think of him as a bad guy with that distinctively sexy look. The only man that looks good in a "womanly" outfit and lotsa accessories. If you know what I mean!

Don't you think so?

Bila tengok Steve dalam American I dol 10 ni, barula I realize why people adore him so much! He's nothing like his appearance. He has a good heart and most importantly...so pure. You can tell! And not a single time in the show I saw Steve trying to act like a mega star, though he is! When people came to him to shake hand or even approach him for a hug, there wasn't a slightest hesitation you can see from him. You are the man, Mr.Rawkstar!

I remember watching one of the audition episode, when the infamous, Chris Medina walked in with his sad story. Man....that story was so moving. Where in the world would you find a man that stick to his lady when she can barely talk or even emember the memories you have shared with her? Anyway....do you remember when at the end of the episode, "The Lady" herself entered the room as requested by the judges. It was a really moving moment when my man, Steve Tyler when to kiss and whisper to Chris's fiancee that Chris has made it to Hollywood because he sand the song for her. That was indeed...the most genuine and noble act I have ever seen in the entire American Idol show.

To Steve Tyler, you are my favourite rockstar! I adore you for your kind heart, your sexy appearance, your beautiful voice and most importantly for who you are!Now I believe, never judge a book by its cover! Rock on!!!!

My favourite couple

Im a reality show addict! That's my Saturday confession. Hahahahha. Say I'm crazy or just wasting my time....but come on!!! Im a real people in a real world. I like it real, though reality shows are somewhat edited and directed to certain extent. Boohooo!!!

Speaking of reality shows...my top 3 are Giulliana & Bill(top of my list), The Kardashians, KLS..Life if the Fab Lane. I love The Bachelor, The Bachelorette (tho i think the concept of the show sucks. Can u imagine the feelings of the rejected candidates? And how could you be in love with someone that has kissed or love almost everyone in the show? Insane!), The Apprentice( I love the show, adore Donald Trump tho he's ugly and cocky and of course...the 1st season winner, Bill Rancic). Okay...enough of my favourites shows!

My actual favourite is the handsome couple themselves! Giulliana & Bill. If any of you who isn't sure of who they are...Bill is The Apprentice's 1st season winner. Giulliana , on the other hand is the E-News anchor woman. If Im not mistaken, they first met during an interview done by G. She asked Bill on who he was dating at that time and Bill's answer was he was waiting to ask her out. G went blushing and the rest was history....

They might not be the most beautiful couple in Hollywood, but its just the way they are. Their love for each other is inspiring. Looking at how much they are in love makes me think whether I have done justice to my partner. Have I love enough? hahahahhahaha. Gitew! Takla.... Tapi deorang ni sweet giler. Sangatttt!!! You must watch the way Bill treat her. Sometimes it looks so surreal. Is it all picture perfect? I wonder... And I kept thinking...why can't Malaysian guys see that women love good surprises,romantic treat or beautiful gifts, once in a while. Some people says it down to $$$. But what is $$$ if you are just not romantic at heart? Kahkahkahkahkah

I remember watching their Italian wedding in Capri. The moment when G cried pronouncing the wedding vows. Well....Pamela Anderson / Britney Spears pun maybe nangis masa baca vows tu kan....tapi 3 bulan je kawin. heheheheh. Tapi Giulliana & Bill ni lain la. I feel her sincerity and love for Bill. They are not like any other celebrity couples. Maybe sebab G ni Italian. Lain skit la culture, norm, upbringing semua kan. And how she used to say in their show that she will be married to Bill for a long...long time.

And if you are one of G&B's show fan, they went through great ordeal in conceiving a baby. They went through a lot but always have each other throughout the IVF process. Looking at how supportive they are is just so moving. You know...as a married couple.. .we go through many different problems. Kadang2 kita rasa...bertuahnya deorang ni....duit banyak...rumah besar....travel all over the world....tapi susah pulak nak dapat anak kan. Harta satu dunia pun, if takda anak, marriage is just a plain relationship that binds 2 people together. Seriously.

Macam kita ni....married couple yang biasa2 ni, lain la pulak masalahnye kan. Yang paling selalu....masalah duit ringgit ni la. Other than that...communication breakdown, family interference...to name a few. And we always think that these celebrities life is so purrfect and trouble-free cos they almost can buy the world. But the truth is.....nobody is free from trouble! Thats the reality!
So....be grateful for whatever we have now because even the richest man in the world is not free from trouble. And to all the married couple out there, be supportive to each other! And always cherish your love like the first time you fall in love. But that is if you could.....

My current obsession, Afgan - Bukan Cinta Biasa

So....let me share my love for this gentleman with all of you. My dream to watch him performing "live" is yet to come true and I have been dreaming of sitting in the very front row cheering for him like crayyyzehhhh. Lumayan deh!

So....enjoy this....my current obsession, the one and only talent to die for, Afgan!

Afganism

 Ni apa punya symptom ni? Ataupun penyakit baru? No it is not! Afganism is defined as people who is crazy in love and addicted to Afgan. Die hard supporters / Fan kental! And I'm one of them. Cinta gue pada lo "Bukan Cinta Biasa", ya Afgan. Waduhhhhh!!!! Keren bangetttt. hahahhahaha

Pardon me, but I have so much love for this gentleman. Its kinda love at first sight. My brother was the responsible on to introduce me to my current addiction, Afgan sweetheart. Saw this guy on You Tube long time back. Well, he was a YouTube star, you know.... just like Justin Bieber. He started singing in pubs,restaurants & cafe, doing his acoustic version of many songs....and BAMMM! He's an Indonesia megastar now!

This YouTube thingy is just epic kan. Turning raw talents into megalicious superstar. But not like that...sapa tu?? Cikgu Shida. Oww...puhleasseeee. Thats not the way la Kak. I think you are just humiliating yourself. Show your talent, not your idiocy! Kalau rasa nak jadi pelawak,masuklah Raja Lawak. Wahh, rhymes la i punya pantun 2 kerat:))

Malaysia's music industry...please don't get me wrong. I have never lost sight of my first love, Nuar. He is still is....and will still be! Wahhh....gitewww. Yo yo oooo je kan. Kihkihkihkihkihkihkih. Nuar mana? Anuar Zain la....Nuar...I lebiu!!! I will have to say this everytime I mention his name! Tak boley la.....mesti jadi gediks lebih bila sebut nama "Lelaki Ini".

So...to those that still hasn't got any idea of who Afgan is....here is a brief introduction of him.


Full name : Afgansyah Reza

Date of birth : 27 May 1989

Place of Birth : Jakarta, Indonesia

Album : Confession No 1 (2008), The one (2010)

Ahhhh....that dimple is just breathtaking, don't you think?

He might not be a hunky, but wait till you hear that deep,sweet,fantastic soulful voice of his. You will definitely think he is gorgeous! Its one of a kind. I mean....I never thought that there is any Asian that would have such a distinctly deep voice. Nigga banyak la suara macam tu and they sing english song. So, when Afgan entered the industry, singing songs that we could actually understand(not that we don't understand English, but penghayatan untuk lagu-lahu Melayu / Indonesia ni lebih mancongkam la kato oghang. hahahhaha), it was such a blessing. Finally.....you know! TERIMA KASIH CINTA untuk bakatmu itu. Waduhhhhh....enak bangettt!
I love every songs that he sings. Right now, I just can't get enough of "Bukan Cinta Biasa", just like how I used to put all his other songs on replay mode. I was crazy in love with "Terima Kasih Cinta", "Padamu Ku Bersujud", "Yang Kutau Cinta Itu Indah"...to name a few. The beautiful part of Afgan's singing is he sounds as fantastic as his record in "live" shows. And he is sooo good in making any song in this world his own. Its Afgan style all the way. I love it! Do check out his rendition of "My All", "When You Believe", "If I ain't got you" on YouTube.
Check out my next post on Afgan's "live" soulful performance of Bukan Cinta Biasa. To Afgan, you are such a gem and blessing from ALLAH. May you have a longg successful career and kapan sih mau ke Malaysia? Gue pingin buangettt ketemu sama lo. I'll be waiting....
