Mika is Back, Back, Back!!!

 
Mika’s songs is on my lappie playlist since forever, it’s on my mp3 player playlist for jogging sessions, yoga sessions, Pilate sessions and even sometimes on hoola hoop sessions.

And now Mika’s back with a new album, “The Boy Who Knew Too Much”! It’s about time, it’s been 2 years already since his first. I was starting to think he’s a one hit wonder.

Made my day this video did :).
 


 

The vid here isn’t really clear. Go here instead to watch the official one.

Mika always makes me feel all silly and happy and a little bit crazy. I needed that alot. Yay!
 

Ps:// This weekend i’m going to have a look at the Gap jeans and Charles & Keith pumps yet again. I’m really obsessed but i’ve been spending too much $$$ on my face already. Sigh… we’ll see, we’ll see. Someone needs to zip-tie my hands behind my back so i won’t able to reach my wallet.

Name Directory

 
Names directory is a repository where names are stored. There will be millions of names filed away here from the most common names like “Adam”, “Betty” or “David” to the most bizarre names you don’t normally hear about such as “Aabenhus” and “Bcaling“ and Eekelaers. You’ll be surprised of the kind of names you would find here.

The directory is solely for entertainment purpose, with no link to any personal data or contact of the person listed. So, i’m sorry you won’t be able to track down the person you might be looking for.

However, it would be fun to browse through the directory, see if you could spot a name of a long lost friend or family member. Personally i think this directory is particularly useful if you are naming your baby. If you want the name to be uncommon and different from the rest, here is a place for inspiration.

Every woman

 
Every woman thinks the world revolves around her.

Every woman thinks she’s special.

Every woman thinks she’s the only one suffering.

Every woman thinks she alone is misunderstood.

Every woman thinks her PMS is the worst.

Every woman thinks her body isn’t perfect.

Every woman thinks she’s fat.

Every woman thinks her boob is either too big or too small.

Every woman thinks her boyfriend is the best in the world.

Every woman (sometimes) thinks her boyfriend is the worst in the universe.

Every woman thinks she is right.

Every woman are insecure.

It’s tough being a woman.

Bravo!

 
I just finish watching this Michael Jackson Medley for like the umpteenth times. The medley arrangement was done by Kurt Schneider and the vocals by Sam Tsui.

I can’t get enough of it. It’s fantastic! Posted it in mukabuku over the weekend and watched it repeatedly since then.
 


 

If you didn’t notice you’re an ignorant blind bat, all 5 on the stage is the same person. It’s really awesome! Plus the vocals is like really, really, really impressive.  After watching this clip i spent the whole Saturday night googling for Kurt Hugo Schneider and Sam Tsui.

Watch these.
 


 


 

He did an awfully better job at “Run” (ori by Snow Patrol) than Leona Lewis and sounds really good doing the Jason Mraz’s song. Great tenor, even my speakers had gone fuzzy and static when i play his voice on my lappie. Standing ovation man!

Google somemore and you will find a video of Sam Tsui and his group from the Duke’s Men of Yale a cappella group doing Umbrella by Rihanna. Super cute haha. This guy is really good.

I watched quite a number of videos of Sam Tsui including the hilarious “College Musical” and somemore amazing music arrangement by Kurt Schneider till like 6am in the morning. Thanks god next day was Sunday. I’m still recovering from the lack of sleep.

Here’s one of my fav from the talented Schneider guy. 15 pop songs in 7 1/2 minutes? He is the king :)

UP, UP and Away

UP, UP and Away

 
There you go, the Black Eyed Peas concert is now open to EVERYBODY. Muslim people are welcome. *shake heads* It still doesn’t make sense for Arthur’s Day to be without the alcohol.

UP was really superb. Just when i thought Pixar would have run out of good stories by now, UP comes along and made me cry. Serious, it’s a tearjerker.
 

up
 

I don’t mind going without the talking dogs, which was kind of lame but the story line is really touching. I cried in both scenes when old Mr. Fredrickson ‘s wife past away and another when he reminisce the times when he was with his wife. Awww… I wish my partner and i would be so loving when we are old and wrinkly.

Sweet heartwarming one from Pixar :) and oh be in the cinema early to catch the short Pixar film called “Partly Cloudy”. Super adorable!

Here it is if you missed it.
 


CloudWatch today’s top amazing videos here
 

And here is the link to the Partly Cloudy’s full story.

Been feeling rather down for the fast week. I’m not sure why but i feel stressed over everything and life have been very mundane lately.

I think the haze is coming again too because my eyes are starting to water and itch again and my nasal passage is blocked for the past few nights. I’m a miserable creature.

I’m feeling super anti-social too if it’s anymore possible to be more anti-social than i already am that is. Ah… i need to soak in a nice hot bath, eye drops and a long, long nap. Maybe i’ll wake up next month.

Before that i think i’m going to watch Partly Cloudy again and again to cheer myself up.

Warehouse Caught Fire in Kepong

 
This is me being a busybody but apparently i’m not the nosiest people around because there are throngs of people already there watching the fire. At least i didn’t purposely go there to 8. I just happened to be on my way home.

From Desa Park
 

The smoke was so thick and black, we saw it from Desa Park City and Mr. Bf’s boss saw it from Jalan Tun Razak.

I’m getting nearer

Warehouse on fire – next to Giamax
 

If it wasn’t for the super thick smoke coming from the warehouse, i would have thought that the circus had come to Kepong because there were laughter and smiles plastered on the “spectators” face as if they were watching an acrobat show at the carnival.

Carnival
 

And there were more people coming towards the scene, some were couples holding hands, some the whole family like on a family trip and even foreign workers with obvious excitement came to watch the ‘show’. The crowd plus those who drove all the way there caused a massive jam.

Fire
 

I’ve never seen a fire before so i wasted no time to pull out my camera and recorded the scene while admiring how beautiful the black smoke was, it was like a volcano had erupted. Ok, that’s really bad of me. Shame on me!

Well, it took the firemen (there were like 3 or 5 firetrucks on the scene) not very long to put the fire off. i can’t imagine with the fasting month now how they would have the energy to hose down the fire. They were still there this morning checking up on things at the warehouse.
