Jom Heboh, Krubong, Melaka...

Penatnya! Penat kerja kat ofis compared to penat kat ekspo with huge crowd, aduhh...memang berbeza sangat. With speakers everywhere on every booths, bising promote barang jualan masing-masing, bising pasang lagu kuat-kuat lagi, termasuklah booth Berita Harian (BH) salah satunya.

Why BH? Enna is one of the residence artist for them and this is the first time teman dia turun padang promote booth BH at Jom Heboh Karnival.

Interesting and fun activities that could be seen for two days starting 7/8/2010 - 8/8/2010 at BH booth ialah kuiz teka silang kata, magic clown for kids, karaoke contest and performance from artists such as Ezelyn, Adam AF and a new singer who was the champion for Bintang Idola BH (BIBH) together with Enna at Klang before, Shima.

BH had arranged 2 slots for performances, 2 p.m & 5 p.m. I told Enna to wear casually to make her comfortable during the day. We just add some accessories here and there.

Thing to take note, if perform kat tempat macam nih is no need to stress much on your voice or vocal. Importantly, the way we treat the visitors such as invited them to sing or dance along . It means that your showmanship must be very good at this time. Kesnya, kau menyanyi lah sebaik mana pun, kalau satu tempat tu dah bising dengan macam-macam bunyi, sesak ngan orang, so cara nak attract orang ke booth kita, kenalah pandai entertain pengunjung dengan baik.

Second day...

Performance on the second day...the specky girl (top pic on the left) is Ros. The leader for BH team during the karnival. Any decision making jer, tanya Kak Ros dulu, boleh ke tak. She is the same age as Enna.

My duty cam biasa, mendandan budak tu, tapi takdelah heavy duty work. Gave some opinion s what to wear and pening jap pikir what kind of fesyen aku nak buat ngan kepala dia.

Then kat sana, need to snap photos here and there (tu sebab gambar aku selalu je tak banyak....huhuhu sedih tul), then ambik video lagi...hoiii penat tau!

Tapi takpe, cheque payment nanti aku yang pegang hihihi! Terus hilang penat aku!

About the karnival, the reason why they moved to Stadium Hang Jebat area (before at MITC) coz of wider space. Especially the parking space. The place was divided into three area. Jom Heboh area and two areas for other booths.

The two other areas were selling crocs, ladies clothes and scarfs lah, souveniors, food dan apa-apa ajelah yang sesuai unutk dijual.

On the first day, tak ada sapa nak teman aku makan bihun sup coz Enna bz sangat time tu. Terkilan jap sebab ada dalam 2 gerai yang berjual. Cam best jer tengok orang makan. Apalagi, the next day barulah Enna and Mrs. Min menemaniku untuk menikmati bihun sup di sana. Yeayy! Sedap tau.

Wait jap-jap. Apa kes Min tiba-tiba muncul dalam cerita aku kan? Jawapan dari Min..."Suka hati aku lah nak muncul kat mana-mana pun"...hahaha! Ingatkan dia tak jadi nak ikut. Tapi sebab dah berjanji punya pasal, muncul jugak budak tuh depan rumah aku. So, on second day, Min lah peneman aku and merangkap assistant Enna for unofficial duty for that day...huhuhu.

First day...

Performance on the first day...nervous jap budak tu. Terkejut kot tengok ramai sangat pelbagai jenis orang kerumun kat dia. Tapi kejap je tuh. Bila dah jumpa adik dia si Shima, dah bergurau senda dengan orang-orang BH, relaks je ajak pengunjung menarilah, berceloteh lah. Sampai aku ngan Huda gelak kelucuan kat belakang tengok gelagat Enna layan pengunjung...hahaha! Antara soalan Enna, "Adik datang kat sini untuk berhibur yer." Budak tu blur-blur jer macam cakap ye lah takkan datang nak kerja kot. Takpe Enna take your time, enjoy every moment ngan "peminat-peminat" kau yer.

Apa lagi nak dicerita...mmmm...so far Melaka visitors were very positive, supprotive and tak malu-malu untuk beraksi dan menujukkan skill masing-masing. Cam biasa, gerai jual barang dalam beg RM10 setiap satu adalah kemestian untuk dibeli sebagai kenang-kenangan kat Jom Heboh selain gambar glamour photoshoot kitaorang yang paling atas tu. Untung Min sebab dapat free je satu copy. RM5 tu satu print...untung ye kau Min.

Then, sempat juga met some of TV3 celebrities, Azizah Ariffin, Nurul Shuhadah dan ada beberapa lagi yang muka kenal nama tak taulah pulak. At Maxis booth, ada nampak Tomok tengah promote kat sana juga.

Shima and Enna...

Lastly, inilah Shima yang sekarang dah jadi recording artist under Adam AF. Not bad juga Adam yer, dah ada artis sendiri under his own recording label. She's just sweet 18 and wow her performance sekarang dah daring sikit akak tengok dik. Totally different masa jumpa on BIBH dulu. She will release her album or her single, tak sure which one . And her promo new song is Luahan Hati. Sempat dengar dia bawakan lagu baru, tapi tak dapat tangkap betul-betul melodi lagu tu. Tunggu dia release after raya jelah yer.

Huagghhh...need to sleep now. Dah kul 2 ker! Good night...erkk morning!

Jom Heboh, Krubong Melaka (7/8/2010 - 8/8/2010)...

Jom Heboh punya cerita...coming soon!

Ayam Kurma Maggie...

Compare to rempah adabi, maggie lagi sedap coz more spicy (extra chilli powder kot). Mengidam nak makan masakan kurma ngan nasi tomato. Tapi nasi tak jadi nak masak. Ada simpan sikit rempah ni untuk nasi kalau buat lah...huhuhu...entah bilalah jawabnya. Just follow the instructions, tapi kita nih bukan jenis suka follow sangat so adalah alter sana sini sikit.

Kita tumis kulit kayu manis, buah pelaga and bunga lawang sikit, bawang merah, putih and halia. Kalau ada tomato puri, boleh masukkan sikit. Then, masukkan rempah dibancuh ngan air. Tumis sampai pecah minyak, masuk kentang dulu. since guna kentang USA, tak lama sangat nak empuk. If kentang local, better rebus dulu, tidak jenuh tunggu sampai empuk. Lepas tu, masuk ayam ke daging ker. Masuk santan, garam dan siap dimakan!

p/s: Nak plan menu for berbuka this Ramadhan. More home cook, less baazar food...hihihi!

Socerer's Apprentice, Salt, Inception & The Last AirBender...

Yup, 4 movies this week! Highly recommended was Socerer's Apprentice starred by Nicholas Cage (Balthazar) and Jay Baruchel (Dave Stutler). The story started with zaman dahulu kala ada seorang tok guru nama Merlin with these 3 anak buah or apprentices (Balthazar, Veronica & Horvath) .

Then of course mestilah ada something evil going on, kalau tak apa yang best nya kan. So, there was a kind of evil spirit name "The Rising" by this wicked witched, Morgana.

Dave pulak dalam cerita nih, was in today world, a scientist student and memang tersangatlah hebat dalam fizik kononnya. He later found out that he was the Prime Merlinian who could fight Morgana and saved the world.

For more details, kena pergi panggung yer. All the actions, magics, comedies were so awesome! Confirm tak tidur punya lah. All parts in the movie were my favourite scenes and the best among the best of course the car chasing scene. Mantap! Kalau ajak tengok kali kedua memang pergi rasanya...hihihi!

Rating: 5 stars!

For the Angelina Jolie die-hard fans, mesti pergi tengok movie nih. Some people said her stamina was not that energetic in the movie, tak ada plotlah and macam-macam. For me, as I'm not a die-hard fan of her, but love to watch her look. I mean forget about her beauty, I like to see the way she speaks, she walks, the way she stares at someone, so sophisticated.

Salt? Not bad at all. Angelina as Evelyn Salt the CIA agent was accused of being the Russian spy. So, the movie is all about her journey to clear her name and search for her true identity. In her 30 plus, she still look good but she is too skinny I guess. And, ada some action parts macam tak logic jer bila tengok.

Rating: 4 stars!

Inception! Another must watch movie. It's not a leisure kind of movie, coz you need to perah otak sikit to understand the story and very thrilled. Kena pay full attention to the movie, coz terlepas pandang certain parts, memang confirm dah tak faham jalan cerita. Memang best coz it was a journey on entering human mind through their dream. Just imagine what happen when you enter into someone dream, play with person's dream and plus enter into another person's dream in that dream and seterusnya. Creative bukan?

Leonardo DiCaprio (Cobb) was the leader of the "dream team". But what I like most was Ellen Page character as Ariadne who was the engineer to visualize the dream. She was so young, but she able to play her role amazingly. My favourite scenes were the last one hour where the team needed to settle the "game dream" and wokeup before it's too late. So, the question is whether you want to live in a dream or reality?

Rating: 5 stars!

The Last AirBender. Ermmm...my first impression on the poster would be, wow mesti best cerita nih. Yes, the idea of having this universal power from water, air, fire and earth together was great and having the Avatar (the airbender) to control or master all the universal power. Avatar been chosen from specified cycle from the four elements just now. So, now is the turn for air to find the avatar to balance the world.

Disappointedly, the plot entahlah macam hilang arah. The technology was there, the fight and lot of beautiful sets but yet fail to give any impact to the audience. So, apalagi, separuh jalan dah terlelap. Sorry, not a great movie at all.

Rating: 1 star

11th MMU Convocation 2010...

I used Picasa 3 editor to arrange these pictures as "collage". Unfortunately, not posting any blog tutorial today how to use Picasa, maybe next time. Penat tul hari ni kelas straight in the morning and meeting in the afternoon. Sigh. So, sebelum nak balik ni, saja test arrange pictures from MMU Convocation (2/8/2010) and inilah hasilnya. It is a free software and it is not that bad to do collage as all simple steps are there. Follow je instructions and be creative, tada...sekejap je siap.

Ada some pics cilok from someone camera kat FB, halalkan je lah yer..huhuhu!

And, about the convocation day, emmm so far the event ran smoothly. Breakfast nasi lemak and lunch pun best jugak, ada macam-macam lauk, ayam masak halia, daging gulai, sayur campur and paling best dessert bubur jagung with sagu. Sedap sampai tambah 3 mangkuk!

Nasib baik mata nih baik je time kat atas stage for 2 hours. Satu je yang lupa, lupa nak ambik gambar ngan Enna and Azman, penyanyi MMU kita ler sapa lagi. Enna duet with ada one guy (sapa entah) for Ayah dan Ibu (nih president nyer request) and Permata Dunia with Azman, and ada another girl. Other performances by international students, U-B for You Raised Me Up and a group of students from Bostwana (betul ke aku eja nih) siap buat traditional dance diorang. Maaflah yer, pics semua tu not available. Tak ada kerja aku kat atas stage nak snap pics. Kena zoom kat screen tak ker malu nanti...huhuhu.

p/s: This week dah tengok 3 movies. Puas hati sangat-sangat!

Black Lacy Bag...

My bag addiction is back. Is it a good or a bad sign? I simply couldn't resist on some of the latest trends in the market. And, there were few stores in Melaka such as at Jusco Big and Parkson stores that caught my eyes. Not yet to count in KL! Latest news from Huda my sis, she bought a new Coach purse at Berjaya Times Square (BTS) ...errr...I mean a pink Coach. She highly suggested BTS coz there were lots of imitation designer bags as well as other cute bags from Korea which were so marketable in Malaysia nowadays. Kat Jusco Big tu, kebanyakan stores kat situ bila tanya, product dari mana ni adik. semua nih dari Korea, Japan kak. Huh...not bad jugak quality barangan Korea especially. Furthermore, we're not that insane to buy the authentic ones, as the imitation look almost real.

And, while window shopping at Jusco Big and at the same time searching for shoes, I've found this store...Cartino Sonea. Never heard the name, but some of the bags been displayed here caught my attention. Entering by looking at the store sign or brand name is not one of my habit. I just simply walk in into any shop which I feel, first I could afford the items being sold, second the store which makes me comfortable to belek sana sini, penjual yang peramah or cute store decor. There's one store on ladies apparel claim that the dress that I hold had been appeared in Nona magazine. Owhh ye ker, maybe bila cakap macam tu, kot-kot I akan beli, hmmm...nope, tak beli pun akhirnya...hihihi!

So, here I present the bag from Cartino Sonea...

Inilah begnya...cantik tak?

Takkan itu bagnyer kan...so here it is, the black lacy bag!

I love any kind of imitation bag from Channel. Nak beli Channel mampu actually (cover2 sikit...hihihi), tapi memikirkan kalau duit tu spend for food, clothes, vacation or shopping lagi kan best, so imitation is the answer.

I showed the bag to Huda and Enna, boleh pulak diaorang ketawakan bag aku nih. Huda kata dah macam bag baju dalam Audrey je aku tengok, tapi comel untuk kau (kata-kata nak menyedapkan hati aku...cis). Whatever, close your ears to other people words as I was so happy to carry it around during convocation...huhuhu!

Not that pricey, below RM100ish. The bag need to handle with care as it is full of black lace. So, pakai sekali-sekala sahaja disarankan. Kalau ada rasa-rasa nak pinjam for any occasion ker (especially orang yang kutuk beg aku), boleh no problem, no heart feeling ok!

My favourite bag of the month...huhuhu! Gaya cakap macam beli bag tiap-tiap bulan!
