She's Beautiful....

right now im sitting down in quiet ol' sabah. last week, on tuesday, i was called up by petronas at 1030 am to come for an interview in Bangi, hence i had to be there by the next day with my own money to go to KL. i dont know why'd they need me there, but i was excited enough because... hey... its KL. the sucky thing was, i had to cut my hair. and then later around 530 pm, when ive packed and all... petronas called again, saying that i dont have to go to Bangi, because they made a mistake, and im now posted in Bintulu. sigh. unrefundable tickets, but hey, i kinda really need the break from my family and stay there in KL. and strangely enough, i still went to the interview.

so stayed at faidz's, and i must say, he is a great friend, and my stay there was very VERY cool. no wonder abe loves him so much. i went to the interview with sneakers, shirt, unironed slacks, and armed only with resume and my copy of diploma. mainly because the person told me the day before it was an informal interview. and strangely enough, they asked me for my thesis, all my sijils and all. mainly because ive never been in a job interview here in malaysia. hahaha. but you know what... i got it jugak. hahahah. i can say i really blew them off. but then i had to merayu at KLCC for me to be posted in Bangi. but sadly, to no avail... im now posted in Bintulu. so if u guys are EVER in Bintulu, do look me up.

went to watch 4 brothers... with a cool group of people. cool enough, i think i clicked. faidz's friends were great. met lili, the sabahan stewardess... trying to build some networking there... probably she could introduce me to some businessmen later when i do... business... things like that. she could probably introduce me to some stewardesses, who also may have some connection to other businessmen that i can talk business with. things like that. its called NETWORKING. ehem.... anyway.... had a pretty smashing time, havent had a sabahan friend who's from around kk, and lives like 5 mins away from my place. so yeah... NETWORKING.

then the next day bukak pose in Souled Out. met more of faidz's friends. got some more talking, some more networking. had really really good lamb shank. yummm. then went to uncle don's, with faidz, lili, fairul, and lili's hot stewardess friend. she's like, cute, sweet, dark, tall, cute, friendly. but of course unavailable. but yes... its all about NETWORKING. her boyfriend probably knows a businessmen as well. for my business later in the future....

i must say... staying with a kelantanese family... is actually VERY cool. i really have to listen what they say. and the cool thing is, i understand. i dare not speak it though, probably i'll be laughed at. but hey, its fun knowing that kecek kelate is not that hard to understand. and faidz's mom cooks really really GOOD. honestly, i prefer eating at home than outside. hahaha. and a very cute niece. feels like gigit2 jekk the 6 year old's pipi. (okay... that sounds sooo gay).

on sunday, we went to mid valley, and man, i havent been there for like 1 year. that place is HUGE. im not sure which is bigger, OU or midvalley. but midvalley definitely has sooooo much more people. period. felt slightly suffocated. went to san francisco steakhouse. great steak... great steak. and met with more of faidz's friend, and a his friend brought a model friend. pretty, petite, cute, model-like laa basically. but then again... its all about networking. she probably knows a modelling company that is interested in my business... and all.

the last day, i went to uptown... which i havent been to for 4 years. and holy shit. it sure isnt the uptown i used to know. i thought i walked into petaling street or sumthing. freaking weird. but got some more aviators. hahahaha. me and my aviators. very VERY cool.

by the end of the day... i get to say that... it was a great stay. and yes... id say faidz, you really compensated with that Rexona thingy. hahaha. i get to do a LOT of NETWORKING, with men, women, and stewardesses. hmmmm... networking... a cool thing to do.... :D.

Speaking of the Devil....

remember last post, when i said livin it up? so here's a recap that day, i wrote that until aroud 10 am. took a bath 1030 am. watched tv 11 am. 1130 am my nephew called me up, asking if i want to join him for a speedboat ride. muahahahha. and you know how i love living life. i forgot to ask what was the top speed of the boat, but it is sure damn fast, and at one point the guy was only inches away from the sand, and then he made so many 360 spins, and the spin was so fast that one HAS to hold on the bar with both their hands, other wise they'll be flying out of the boat so fast, they wont even have the time to say their mother's name. so people... live it up!!

btw.. playing CS, 4-1 on the terrorist side is pretty cool. i just obliterated a whole team of counter about 5-6 of them in one go last night. hahaha. okay... that's a nerd talking there. now here are some random thoughts...

Crazy Frog....

oh dear god... can someone tell the entertainment industry in Malaysia to STOP playing those irritating stupid songs??? i mean seriously, its just some techno freaks replaying the famous 80's soundtrack and mix it up so badly, and makes it sooo irritatin 'ding ding ding!!!' the sound keeps ringing in my head. im sorry to UK and europeans but i definitely know that americans dont come up with those irritating type of songs. they come up with irritating rap songs, but now annoying froggy character that repeats the whole songs for 4.29 minutes.

C-Tea....

i was at the airport one time, waiting to meet my alam shah teacherss and there was a big screen TV on the ceiling, showing clips of sabah, and some informercials as well. so then suddenly pops up siti nurhaliza, drinking tea, you know the corniest way imagine, it would always go like this 'hi saya irfan, setiap kali sebelum saya ke pentas, saya menghilangkan dahaga saya dengan segelas teh T-Fan yang diperbuat oleh herba2 tempatan yang kaya dgn vitamin B kompleks.' then i take a sip... 'mmmm... enak sekali!!', then i grin. that was how C-tea's commercial was like. corny, and to put the corny level up a notch, they had clips of other extra drinking and saying... mmmm... enak sekali. sigh. Siti is a very good singer, she's almost impeccable, she's beautiful, she's so rich, i dont think she had to even do that commercial. those are just one of her agents trying to score some cheap money or so. poor her. but you got to love siti's voice though. that's her life. oh and not to mention her cute face. mmmm... comel sekali....

Livin' it up....

In retrospect of dear ferr's past entry - Growing Pains, it kinda triggered me of how most of us are currently living our lives. ive seen myself 10 years from now, being out of shape, slaving under some corporation, doing something that they REALLY HATE eventhough they studied their asses for that major in college, without a decent pay, and debts of houses, cars all over. im ugly and single, and i sit at home every nite, INCLUDING weekends watching an illegally downloaded movie, and on certain nites, id go out to meet my great married friends abe, faidz, and ferr. hence, it dawned me... is that how i want to be living life? of course we need to earn something for a living, but to live an actual life... and living it... i think that's something everyone needs. everyone needs a certain mecca, certain getaway, to make sure there's always something to get you through life in these hard times.

yes... aku menganggur. ive had some ppl who kind of question me of doing the mtv audition, and even considering being an mtv host if i actually got it. some say it was a waste of college, some implemented it was a waste of time, some implemented i'll never make it. but hey, if i didnt even get it... im proud to say... i was very close to the best thing ive actually REALLY wanted to be than most people out there. most people who works a life that they bitch about, being bored, doing paper work, in front of the computer day and night. and say, yeah sure, work is okay, but what they actually want is to be a professional surfer, be in a rock band, own their own company, be a zoologist, be a doctor, in fact, be the best thing you can be.

and alhamdulillah, although being unemployed, currently, i AM living life. i dont always sit at home watch TV, chat, go to CC. ive always wanted a relaxing morning where i jog leisurely, beside the beach, in the jungles, breathing each and every breath, each and every second that He has given to me. i got my scuba diving license, something ive always wanted to do since i was a kid. discover new wildlife in the tropical forests, tracking my way through wild pitcher plants in the early morning mists, admiring the endangered majestic creatures that was made by Him, go on boat rides to the middle of the sea and fish, relax, and do leisure dives, watching creatures most people has only seen from a fish tank, on their plate, and text books. and yes... instead of being a wuss and going out of the stereotype of being engineers, lawyers, accountants, ive really actually tried for the thing that i really actually wanted to do. yes i know, adult life will most of the time be sucky, will be boring, but if you let it get to you, and always find your mecca, your getaway, it'll always remind you that you are alive.

so my dear friends... you have to question yourself, besides sitting down relaxing at home, watching TV, go shopping, chill with friends... what are the things that you have ALWAYS wanted to do but never did. surf? be a professional photographer? be a race car driver? be an equestrian? sky diving? wind surfing? travel somewhere so randomly alone? push yourself to do it... stop bitching about your life... and live it. and dont ever think im wasting my life away... coz i know... im living it.... :)

Selamat BerPuasa....

Back to you....

BeHold... En Nik Faidz's cool videoclip... one of his first steps into becoming at director. the clip may take sometime to load, but hope you bear through it. it's worth the watch.

So its a Sunday morning... and guess what am i going to do in 1 one hour. SCUBA DIVE!!! muahahahah. hopefully get to see some barracudas or better yet, baby whale or sumthing like that. heh. kakak lana-chan, i wish you were here, you could probably join us. :).

Earlier this week, i got a call from MTV. i was in the final consideration for a VJ. But i never got a call back after that. so i dont think i got it. bt strangely enough, i never thought i'd be even getting that close to the dream job of my life. big time. i was sad, but... it still amazed me that, i actually made it through one phone call. it was a great rush. and thanks for the support to my loving friends, especially abe and faidz. thanks dude. kalau korang tak tolak aku naik pentas arituh, mmg tak sampai sini laa gamak nyer.

my current past time, its not my favorite, but this is the only thing that gives me action here in KK is going out with my nephew and my biras, to the local CC, 3way.com. and damnnn... aku kini setaraf dgn cina2 lendir yang giler terer main Counterstrike. my favorite weapon is definitely 3-4 now. it lasts longer than an mp5navy. i gunned down 4 men in a row with that without having to reload. hahahah. shit... i sounded like a nerd. damn it!! i wish i got mtv, at least that would've compensated my coolness level. we'll usually play from 8pm till 3am now. hahah. and then hit out to the worst mamak ive ever seen, and then drive back home alone. sigh, i wish i could hit the clubs here. never actually been in a club at all. never really liked it. but i do want to know what the scene is like, here in sabah.

but then again... although im always surrounded by so many people here... i always still feel alone. its just not... the mcGiffs, the RPIians... not you....
