M! the Opera

M! The Opera is a new music composition that has been produced by some of Malaysia’s finest creative talents.

Composed by Saidah Rastam, text written by Jit Murad and with a cast of over 35 wonderfully talented young stars this is a production that could only have evolved in Malaysia today, reflecting all the different communities and elements that have made Malaysia what it is in this day and age. M grows up in Kampung Baru, where he watches and learns as his seamstress mother makes women beautiful.

Following rigorous training in industrial Japan M becomes a legendary fashion designer. Sepi, a beautiful childhood friend, is his Muse.

Then Kerabat, an outrageous designer, emerges…

M! The Opera explores the dramatic struggle between those who have found fame and love, and those who are about to achieve them, all set in the sumptuous world of couture.
~ excerpt from http://www.mtheopera.com

I went to watch M! the Opera at Istana Budaya yesterday. Limkokwing is a “Corporate Alliance Partner – Silver” (what ever that means) but i heard they gave bout RM80K (i think) to the production. Anyway so LKW had a whole bunch of free tickets and they gave it to the staff and the choir members :D so I managed to get a RM150 ticket free :D

Anyway, it was my first time in IB and we had to wear kinda formal. So i put on this blue dress which was already dusty coz it was underused. But Nick said it was too short and rejected it so I had to juz wear a blue skirt and black top with this nice blue selendang (curi-ed from Mom) and had a glittery handbag (curi-ed from my sis)

The show was really good. Khir from Iklim was M! and Doreen T was Sepi, his muse, childhood friend and main actress/singer of the show.

wanted to write more…but got too lazy

Database+allowance

Had my database Lab exam today. Was quite easy so I hope i score *crosses fingers* It started at 3.15 pm. The lecturer is cool..he even let me use earphones and listen to my music while i was doin it.

Been realizing that Im lousy at saving money. Am so broke that I’ve already started using next month’s allowance. I spend an average of RM6 at uni everyday (RM5 for nasi campur+rm2 for drinks) but i dont eat everyday.

Went I went out wif pammy on Sunday, I juz got my allowance for April in my account. Was utterly broke so had to withdraw. On that day i spent:

• Lunch at banana leaf = RM14
• Bread = RM 4
• Starbucks for drinks & dinner = RM 20
• Reload for my handphone = RM30

Grand total for one day of outing…from 11am – 10pm = RM69

Then yesterday met up with old friends, coz they juz started their semester in KDU:

• Lunch at uni (nasi campur+mineral water) = RM 6
• Pretzel = RM3
• Movie = RM10
• Dinner at teppanyaki = RM12

Grand total for half a day of uni & half a day of outing = RM31

Today, had lunch (RM5) – nasi campur (again!) and had to buy 2 floppy disks for my exams = RM3. Total = RM8

So in 3 days..I’ve already used RM108 of my allowance for April. And its not even the first….im sooo screwed

KDU & Date movie

Wanted to go to the gym yesterday but had to wait for a call from the TM guys about my internet. Manatau they never ended up calling.

So i went to OU to meet up with Pam, Sid, Andre, Cass & Sam (all budak KDU). Met up with them at Secret Recipe. Then went to buy tickets for Date Movie. Before the movie started, we went to the arcade to play games. LOL! really macam budak la playing the drum game, the shooting game and the Photo Hunt game.

The movie was kind of lousy. Should have just got the cd/dvd instead. The movie is kind of like scary movie (which makes fun of horror movies) but it makes fun of date movies such as “Bridget Jones’ Diary”, “The Wedding planner”, “hitch”, ect. The spoofs were not as funny as I expected after watching the trailer. In fact, most of it was kind of lame. Plus it was all jumbled up together in no specific pattern due to the multiple scenes from other movies. Rating : 1 out of 5 stars

p/s: yesterday’s sit down session was (to me) more of a ’shoot fi’ session. But anyway, things have been resolved, which is good………i guess

Hartamas-Bangsar-KLPAC

Last weekend was fun! Pam suda balik from KK so we hung out. First go makan at Hartamas Square wif Azril, Arip & pammy on Sat nite. Had spaghetti which cheese sauce…yummy yummy. Azril had fried oysters which was fantastic. Pam’s pizza was also not bad.

Lepaked in Mosin with the original mosin group – Poker, arip, basha, me – plus pam & firhan (sp?) and gossip chit chat till early morning. Went over to pam’s place to tidur and gossip chit chat summore till we fell asleep.

Sunday afternoon went to bangsar and had banana leaf rice with pam, erin & nick. So yummylicious. Pam had nasi briyani summore…sedap sehingga menjilat jari.

Then went to KLPAC to watch Homecoming – plot was kinda confusing and messy. Honestly i didnt really get it. I’d rate it a 2 out of 5 stars.

After that, Pam & I went to Tesco to buy some stuff then went to Starbucks to sit down and have a drink and gossip more chit chat. I tried out the Caramel Streusal Latte (rich, buttery and sweet) & the Cajun chicken dome (not so nice la..kinda pedas summore).

Went back, did my work and went to sleep. Oh ya….my internet is down for the week coz i changed my hse phone number.

A 15-hr day & driving classes

Last Tuesday I had 9am-5pm classes. AND i stupidly left my hp at home. So couldnt contact anyone but sempat to tell my dad to get my mom to switch off the phone and tell her that i forgot my phone. So left the house around 8am and had straight classes till aroun 4.30 pm. Because erin & nick went back early (they finished classes at 11.30am) I had to wait for 6.30pm to take the Cyberjaya-One Utama bus back.Lepaked in the lab till about 6.20pm then went to wait for the bus. It was raining…then the bus was late. Reached OU about 7.30pm then went to go see my sis who is working at one of the retail stores there. Managed to use her phone and got the news that our car broke down so my mom could not pick me up at that time.Windowshopped for a bit (coz no money) and went to buy the ticket coupon for the Cyberjaya-OU bus – its RM30 for a booklet of 10 coupons, meaning RM3 per trip. Went for dinner at Zuup..been craving for their soups in a bread bowl. Customer service was excellent….but i was the only customer :P Had New England Clam Chowder and water = RM 17 but it was really filling coz of all the bread. Yes i finished it all :P sampai makan mangkuk skali..

After my yummylicious dinner, I juz sat there and lepaked, read magazines till around 10pm coz Gladys was supposed to finish at that time. manatau i tunggu tunggu there for her to finish and she only got off at around 10.30 then we had to wait for the taxi. Finally got home at 11am – FIFTEEN (15) hours after i left the house at 8 am. Was bloody tired..

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Had no classes yesterday, so went for driving in the morning with my sister. Was kinda funny to see her mati engine so many times…okla..i’ll admit i did mati engine a few times. Was really bored tho, i even fell asleep at the back of the kancil while waiting for my turn. LOL!
