But to top it off, women has had the most problems in expressing themselves. Whether it be in the forms of sexuality and desires, or just plain voicing out their opinions. Not everyone could have done it, but I know a few whom have. If you’re keen on hearing what these women have to say, do check out the ‘HerStory Films Project’ where it features real-life Malaysian women whom has their own personal stories to share. It’s non-profile, and it puts everyone in perspective, depicting it in video storytelling and short film projects.

Music has been a part of my life ever since I was born. Literally, especially if your mum sings at every time she gets (well I’m not sure if this is true but I like to think it happened like that) and yeah who has not listened to radio even if you were a baby. This generation is lucky enough to be blessed with so much musical talents which varies from so many different genres such as Usher, John Legend, Justin Timberlake, Kelly Clarkson, and to top it off, the cast of Glee which yes combines music from a whole lot of different generation all into one series and they even have the tenacity to awesome-fy these songs even better!

And you know the artists that I just mentioned about, most of time I love! And to top it off, behind the scenes they are managed by the same company called Sony Music. Banyak stim leh, when you have all of them under the same company and with a lovely cherry on top of it, Sony Music Malaysia has only just came up with a Facebook Fanpage! Yes if you did not already know, Sony Music has a branch here in Malaysia too and not only are they on Facebook, they are also on Twitter.

You might ask why all the hype, or why am I even so happy about a fanpage/twitter account.

Well, does the photo above make you jealous? Haha yes, it’s thanks to Sony Music Malaysia that I won a Meet and Greet pass during Kris Allen’s showcase recently on twitter and not only that, I’ve won a couple of CD’s from them as well. Sony Music Malaysia is pretty active in the social media scene, on facebook and on twitter. You get to win loads of goodies, some concert/M&G passes if you’re lucky and loads of other stuffs as well. Oh and just recently, 5 lucky fans got to have an ice cream session moment with local celebrity, Alif Satar sponsored by New Zealand Natural.

How’s that for awesome?

Oh and you know, this blog post can actually get me *hehe* 2 free CD’s from Sony Music Malaysia as well by just promoting their Facebook Fan Page on my blog. For more details, click here on how to get it but do remember that this promo ends tomorrow (18 June 2010).

Hurry up and do it if you want freebies yeah =)

and that’s why I’ve been slacking in blogging lol. Look out for it

Anyways, I’ve always been a food person, hence my overweight tummy size (although am trying ‘very very’ hard to lose it at gym). Good food is easy to find, but really good ones are tough. Here in KL where there is food just about anywhere. If you’re local, you know of the ones so secluded in the city, one would feel so scared just by in the said area. And of course there are those whom people know of , that are lying in plain sight. Well, when I first heard of this place, which was through an article somewhere I thought wow sounds interesting. And then I gave it a try, but finding it wasn’t exactly easy since the place where it is located at is so new and all.

Given that I actually discovered the area it was at by accident without having to go through Google Map if you know what I mean, pure joy and happiness follows through =p. The Pink Sage Diner & Pantry, located at Solaris Dutamas although does not exactly reflect its name in terms of color, gives off a very chilling ambiance. Myself and Jen first tried it out for dinner a couple of weeks back loved it so much that we instantly wanted to try the breakfast dishes also and although its called breakfast, they serve it up till 6pm.

Inside it sits a very very very cool poster, right behind a their DJ deck which I’m sorry although it is cool, its such a shame that I forgot what it said. To the owners of The Pink Sage Diner, if you are reading this, I really really REALLY wanna know where you bought it =D. Also while we were there, they were showing a live telecast on their projector the F1 race, which gives it a plus point being inside and all. I always approve places that has these combination’s, air con, food, and projector/tv =p

Yes, many different shots of the menu cause I was so intrigued by it that it is made out of paper which I’m guessing is recycled. No idea why but really different and very cool although it is kind of a pity when it gets dirty.

Serving water differently, it comes in its very own water container for all whom order it. Makes me want to steal it away the moment I saw it but its not easy task since its so big. Reminder to self, bring a big bag the next time =p. Jen ordered the Haagan Dazs Chocolate Ice Cream Milkshake (RM13.50). Very smooth and chocolaty, anything from an ice cream goes really well with me, I ain’t picky.

Take a break with a picture of her enjoying every minute of it!

A breakfast dish for Jen with the Greasy Breakfast (RM15.50) that has fried eggs with corned beef, hash browns, streaky beef brisket and fried tomatoes in em. Hash browns and fried eggs FTW! Since its called Greasy Breakfast, you can expect some really oily but a very satisfying meal. Writing this at 12am isn’t helping much either since looking at it makes me even more hungry lol.

A mixed up in my order had me instead trying the Angus Beef burger in which I did not regret at all. The meat was juicy and tender, tasted so beefy and yes it was THE best burger I ever had. But it did come with a hefty price tag. One of the most expensive burgers they have, it is still a must try at least just once. You don’t know what you’re missing!

Very evenly cooked, and a big compliments to the chef that cooked it. Am definitely getting it again the next time I’m there, although the other dishes are very tempting as well.

All dishes comes in pretty decent servings which for a big eater like me is more than enough.

Here’s the address in case you were wondering and do check out the website as well. A perfect place to chill with friends and hold parties/small events, definitely a good place to be at. Alternatively, you could have a read at Jen’s review here. Definitely a much better review than mine haha.

It’s been a while since I last did a runway shoot and yeah this time I came with bare equipments lol! Reminder to self, need to get 70-200mm ASAP lol! Anyways I guess it was a pretty fun event, met @techsupremo and had a chat with him together with @icednyior and also catching up with Dwayne, a college mate.

Oh well, pictures only ahead with no edits, just added borders and watermarked and shots were taken with 85mm only.

Misha Omar performs during the intermission

See, told you why I need the 70-200mm haha =p

Anyways just a sneak preview post of a recent wedding I shot about a week back. Thing is, this couple only booked me about 2 weeks before their wedding and you could imagine how rushing it would have been. Normally I wouldn’t accept it but since I was free why not. Not to mention it was a weekday wedding as well haha but still, a big congratulations to them. They were very lovely, sporting and fun, traits that I really love in all of my shoots.

Like I said, sneak peek only lah yeah hehe =p

But most of all I learnt alot also. My love for wedding photography grew even more, confirmed a couple of events to shoot at including one in Ipoh and also product shoots which is really quite an unfamiliar territory but that is a different matter all together. A random post this is again, and I think I should name this series as Random Ramblings cause it sounds cooler that way =p

Had some yummy banana leaf rice on Saturday morning over at Nirvana Banana Leaf Restaurant, Bangsar.

Slightly pricey as just for a portion of 2 person and 4 drinks totals up to about RM26++, but delicious nonetheless. Try it out. Also I heard that there was another call Kanna somewhere in SS2, PJ which is pretty famous as well. Have yet to try that though.

Had a shopping experience with @kellster and @serpentinegal over at Cats Whiskers where I bummed at the shop’s couch and ended up sleeping. Might have humiliated myself during the process as well with some snores and will avoid the shop ever from now on. Oh it’s the season for 50% storewide sale over at Cats Whiskers now and yes all girls should flock there and not spend on Gucci/Prada. I’m cheap that way =p

Some yummy dessert shop came running along to me at Bangsar where it serves all things Mango, my favorite yum!

Check out my Mango Froz aka Mango Yogurt! Super deliciously awesome and refreshing! Shop is just right opposite Czip Lee, behind of Hong Leong Bank, do check it out!

Paid a visit to Subang Parade to disturb @CincauHangus as he was manning a booth of his sisters that sells second hand books/magazines. Looking all cute behind the booth, with his iphone playing some angry birds game while listening to really really the most horrible singings ever in any singing competition, I was tempted to take a photo of him. But he might kill me so here’s a photo of just the books.

Went on downstairs to finally try the Dessert’s bar.

They seriously have the most awesome Sorbet ever, the Grape Sorbet. Go try it as it was as refreshing and addictive  as sex! Gave me instant orgasm right when it went into my mouth.

During the night, it was the Blog for FT event where I was invited by @nigelais as he was one of the finalist for the competition.

And yes, you can definitely guess what the results is right if you know @nigelais….

He won 2nd place, winning him loads of stuffs including a Rempit Bike! Check out his haul, now I regret not robbing him on his way back home that day.

Bought a new pair of shoes and it was dirt cheap! Well I stumbled upon the shoes quite some time back and at the time, they didn’t have the right size for me so when I went back there to check it just now, lo and behold, the perfect fit!

The brand first of course!

And yes color was unique and it became a clear factor on why I had to have these pair of shoes.

Cause it was exactly the same colors as to my blog design, even the shade as well.

Nice eh?

But it’s concert that is not to everyone’s taste lol. I know for a fact that Jen does not like it but I like it hehe and so, it’s going to be a bromance outing with Joshua!

How was your CNY? Mine was pretty relaxing and although hot, it wasn’t too bad. Total spoils from CNY, angpaus and a total of RM16 from Black Jack, I love CNY haha! Shot a ROM before that too, will do a separate post on that later =)

Short post as well, while I console myself first before monday blues takes me over.

All that’s left is some slight tweaking here and there, bug fixing if any detected and voila, it’s complete. Have removed the Cbox from my blog already, reason being is that I can’t keep track of all the comments I get on the Cbox, hence I removed it. Besides, its neater now I don’t you think so =)

Background is currently in solid colour, will be adding in some design onto it to spice things up a bit, making it somewhat more attractive to look at haha. What do you think about the colour? Nice and different? I retained the slide show and since this is a single column template, all my blog links will be moved to a new page where it is solely for links.

Well I guess that’s about it =p!
