Recognize The Look?!

The Childhood Dream

I just can’t get enough of the Enchanted soundtrack. Is not only reminded me back to my desire to work for Disney, but also my childhood dream to be in a musical play. I just love the concept of dancing and singing and acting all pack in a show. It’s not only building up the story stronger, but also it connects the audience more emotionally :) Imagine you on a stage, singing your heart out, dancing to the music and act out the character you are portraying. With the bright stage light going to your direction making a dark surrounding and you’ll feel you are in the world of your own. Isn’t it lovely?! Oh how I miss my old dance class with all of the stage performance. So whoever interested of giving me a part in a musical…? \^-^/ *That's how you know... (humming)

Cupcake POPs!

Found the cutest cupcake recipe at a blog. It’s called the Cupcake Pops by Bakerella. It looks easy so I decided to try out the recipe. Guess what! It’s not that easy as it looks. The one that I make was either too soft or too dry. Well, me not going to loose hopes that early. :D “Never give up, never surrender”

'ingredients'

'mix butter, sugar and cream cheese to make frosting'

'grind the cake and mix with the cream'

'roll into balls'

'wrapped with plastic'

'chill in freezer for a while'

'melt chocolate'

'shaped balls to a shape of your desire'

'clover for luck?!'

'for last touch of sprinkles'

'stick on a stick and voila!'

'a choice using additional Hershey's Kissables'

'doesn't look as pretty as Bakerella's, will try harder next time'

Bon Appetite

Mirage!

FINALLY! We’ve got a chance to explore other editing post. After all this time, we always go to Eltra to edit our commercial. This time, Mirage post is the place to go. Is not that Eltra is bad and such, but I guess it’s time for us to try out something new. To try working with other talented people out there. Would be a waste if we just know about and not experiencing one would it? :) As expected, the feeling to be in a new place is GREAT! Mirage post is really big comparing to Eltra. Wayyyy… bigger! They have all the things you need. Other than the beautifully painted editing room, they have the necessary entertainment. Like playstation room, pool table, fusball table, and others. Really was a candy to the eye.

'time to eat'

'afternoon tea time'

'a pick of your own club sandwich or fresh fruits '

'work hard play hard'

'time to work! meet the Director'

'wall art inside the editing room'

'just can't get enough of the murals (it's so pretty)

being narcist at the same time'

Harpitnas Day

Harpitnas (Hari Kejepit Nasional) day ^^ is the working day between holidays. The laziest day to work. It feels like a holiday yet you still have to work. Well anyway to get the day goes by we went to meet Ndutty for lunch at Pacific Place. So we sat at Urban Kitchen and had our lunch. Nice place just can’t get enough of the décor of the place. Classic and yet still got the touch of the modern chic. Urban Kitchen is like Marche restaurant. With the concept of move and pick from various, stall serving from local to western delicacies. Just have to bring your “card” around to tip on the bill. Eventually, I didn’t manage to eat on the spot, cos the cooking was taking too long that I had to make a take away. It smells good though, so looking forward to eating it back in the office. :)

'welcome to Urban Kitchen! Please keep your card at all times :P'

'Roro concentrating'

'not so creative, pick the same food'

'duck rice looks nice'

'cheers at the nice place'

'waiting for my order to come'

'a skit we play while waiting'

'just can't get a hold of our stupidity'

'my take away box, can't wait to be eaten'

Happy Harpitnas Day ^^

Battle Of The Davids

Finally, the last two standing. The battle we’ve been waiting for. The battle of the DAVIDS. Syesha got voted off last night leaving off the two guys at the final. A big round of applause to Syesha who’ve been tough to compete with till the big three. Anyway, can’t wait for the finals, the fight between the rocker and the pop-er. Could be one of the greatest final in the American Idol history. Great job Guys!

The 3 Battles

'The Final 3'

Last night, the final 3 battle down for the final, next week. It was a tough competition between the three. Especially with Syesha starting to show her true colour at the very last minute. Her powerful voice making it not less attractive than the two guys do.I like her "Fever" performance. Saucy!


'Syesha Mercado- Fever'

Archuleta with oh so tender and sincere voice still love by many till this day. Billy Joel's So It Goes just the perfect song.

'David Archuleta- And So It Goes'

And Cook with his powerful rocker voice always dares to try new arrangement. Aerosmith's I Don't Want To Miss A thing, Nice!

'David Cook-I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing'

As always, Simon gave some true and weird comment to the contestants. Like the comment given to Archuleta, he said that Archuleta was like a
Chihuahua trying to be a tiger after singing Chris Brown’s With You. Heh?! What are you trying to say Simon?



Well anyway, my vote is still for Archuleta. Even though some might say that, he is too young to be a star and still have a long way to come before his stardom but I guess I believe in his honesty of his true potential. All finger crossed for Archuleta ^^

Mom's Birthday

Yeah! This year we got her! The surprise was at midnight, while she was about ready to go to sleep. Lit up the clown candle on a small Oreo cream cake just to make it look more festive :D Then, SURPRISE! Happy Birthday! (sorry can't show you picture on this one, due to inappropriate wardrobe :P) I can show you Pik-pik though:D

'Pik2 waiting for his slice of cake'

After blowing candle and cutting the cake, we sleep and continue the celebration at night with a decent family dinner at a new restaurant nearby. It’s Yakoya, Japanese shabu-shabu buffet. Nice place!

'Shabu-shabu dipping sauce, very sour'

'mix it all together with chopped chilly and voila'

'while waiting for the soup to boil'

'side dish'

'you can order as many of this plate, mMm... yummy!'

'lots and lots of veggie'

'mother daughter'

'a quick pose with the birthday girl'

Happy Birthday, Midut!

A Collector's Ego

'just an update on the weather today'

Today, when I arrived at the office, my colleague was arranging his Marvels statue on the table. His statue collections become more and more outrageous. It’s all started with a small cheap one he bought by the market. Then a friend started to offer him the middle range one, made of plastic yet the detail of it making it look as realistic. And now he is into the expensive statue. The hand carving is so detail and precise to the actual look. It’s too delicate to play on. Becoming a collector is addictive. No matter how expensive it is, you won’t feel “complete” if you don’t collect it all. You just won’t get enough of what you have so far. You just keep on wanting for more, no matter how expensive or outrageous it is. So is it worth it? Maybe if your collection is limited edition that you might sell it for more than you buy. Still is it worth it to fulfill your collector’s ego?

'look at those statues'

nice collection, guys!
