Was driving back after work today and a friend of mine called . I picked up the phone  to `off’ it since I was on the highway as well as to look who was calling (YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE !)…I tell you , I din’t pick it up , If I did , I would state here blatantly that I did , but I din’t .

Then out of a sudden a police car appears right in front of me and asks me to pull over . Ayo , I know kena tiu di . I pull over and saw who was calling . Makuku, it better be worth it .

The policeman comes over and asks me to roll down my window .

Police : Selamat petang encik , boleh tengok lesen memandu?

I took him out and showed him lar..

Police:Encik , sekarang ada ops sikap, compound terus RM300.00, Kena bayar terus , tak boleh memohon appeal .

Me in my mind :`Waaah, this guy can use the word  `appeal!’ , not bad wor…’

I tried to reason with him saying that I din’t pick up the phone but what proof did I had ? Kena tolak terus .

Police:Saya belum tulis apa-apa lagi , jadi macam mana ni ? Kalau dah tulis, tak boleh buat apa-apa ya ? Macam mana…??

Kena pressure kau kau…luckily I was in this situation many times already . I don ‘t mean that I kena tiu by the police many times , but was in many friend’s cars that got stopped .

Me:Aiseyman…boleh settle sini ah?Tolong lar.

Policeman:You kerja mana?

Me:Saya belum kerja lagi,buat research,masih student , tengok sticker , itu UTP punya sticker.

Police:UTP?Apa bendak tu?

Babi….I’m never going to mention I’m from UTP ever again .

Me: Settle sini saja la ya ?

Then in comes his wingman , this guy played the role of the bad cop …makuku and boy did he play his role well !

Police 2: OKOK, tapi minimum RM200 .

I wana tiu him di , but out of respect and cowardness..

Me:Ayo,saya hanya ada RM35,sorry bang, RM35 saja .

Police showed a muka busuk then said

Police:Ok,lipat dan taruk bawah, cepat…

Then they went off …..

If that was half of my troubles , it would have still been ok . Lan tiu , I FORGOT MONEY FOR TOLL!!! I REALLY only had RM35 on me at that time and only had `cents’ lying around in my car . I really thought I would have to beg at the toll booth di ….

I won’t tell you how the story ends, but I’ll tell you that it involves be ransacking my whole damn car in the middle of the highway till the tip of my boot to find RM1.70 worth of coins lying around!!

Really kena tiu by Police today!

It takes a tough man to overcome his fears , and not many of us have the courage to do just that . The absolute reason why the vast majority live in mediocority is because we are scared to challenge our limits .

Many talented people say a simple life is all they want , but have they ever tried to push themselves and see what life beholds ? Sucess only favours those who want to suceed .

I have to suceed , I was born to be sucessful . I have to overcome my fears . Impossible is nothing !

`IF YOU THINK YOU CAN , YOU CAN ! ‘

…Let the games begin…

Ok , the title doesn’t really make much sense , but the story to it does .

I promised Kenny a few months ago to give him something that I invented . I don ‘t think I can disclose for who or what purpose it’s for , but in simple lay man terms , I thought him a `trick ‘ . I never got the time to send him his stuff but after a few months , I finally met up with him in the newly opened J’CO at Piramid.

Me,Kenny and Samantha at J’Co ,after Kenny performed what I taught him

Kenny promised he’d practice , so the next time you see him , please do ask him .. ` Kenny , show me a trick!  ‘ . I hope he entertain the lights out of you .

I’m going to try to make this post a little more meaningful than the rest of my `SHOWs ‘ posts . Instead of just blindly typing away , I would like to do a `readable’ coverage since tomorrow is a public holiday . Hey, I like maintaining my blog OK ! In years to come , I can look back and see what did I do .

A couple of weeks ago , I got a call from Derrick Yoong to do a show for his friend . His friend turned out to be an employee for a huge pharmaceutical company called JANSSEN-CILAG . I have never heard of them before but Derrick’s friend JUN YI was such a nice person on the phone that I immediately accepted the show ( She turned out to be an absolutely great host during the show too ) .

Me , JUN YI and Derrick after my performance

Not only was Jun Yi pretty and  very friendly in person, she was also the organizer of the whole event . She made sure I had water during my performance , a seat and catered for all my needs . Thanks so much !

Derrick also dropped by to perform for the kids but ended up becoming my assistant for the show . Thanks bro ! Appreciate it !

Me and Derrick at the front desk in PJ Hilton

I met Derrick at a camp 3 years ago and somehow his interest in MAGIC sparked then . Look at his thumb fan now! It’s freaking better than mine ! I haven’t been doing cards for a very long time . Time really flies these days , Derrick has graduated since and is working as an engineer now .

I was to perform for the adults in the show and the children had their own entertainment . The show went on really well and here are snapshots of it , coutesy of Derrick .

The MC for the night was MELVIn whom i did the Hewlett Packard show in Genting with . You can read it about it here

Melvin , Adeline Choo(the former Miss Malaysia) and I in Genting’s main ballroom .

James and Yuen from ICEM events(left) with Melvin and I at the mamak after the show .

I was also performing for the VIPs , including Tan Sri Arrifin and his son wanted me to do a show in the future show for his company ( Prima Group ) . A great contact to make and worth the whole show put together .

Performing for Tan Sri’s table

Alltogether , the show was a great show to say the least . I want to thank Derrick for the contacts , JUN YL for being such a nice host and JANSSEN-CILAG for having me at their annual dinner .

Today was one of the shows that I had most fun at . The enviroment was superb , made alot of new clients and chatted with plenty of great people . If only every show could be like this  , I wouldn’t mind giving MAGIC a chance to be my fulltime carrier .

Anyways , the show was at La Bodega , Bangsar . It was at their Lounge upstairs and it was a very nice place .The ambience was great and very relaxing , not mentioning that it was a great place for a date  . They even had their own small library filled with books .

What a nice place to sit down and just relax

My main clients today were called`ESSENCE‘ an event managing company , and they were holding a Christmas party for their clients . They brought me in as entertainment . The staff treated me really well and were a joy to perform to! .

Shen Li,Kerry , Me , Audrey , Ping , Denise and Manpreet

I also got to meet many future clients and made many new friends along the way . Somehow , I was in very good form and all comments I received were positive . It’s a very good day for me .

Star 2 editor , and representatives of Sin Chew daily

I also got to meet the JobsDB.com General manager and his team who were absolutely wonderful people . They kept pumping me with alchohol for the wrong reasons . Haha . I’ll be helping them for their job fair in February at KL Convention Centre .

Me , Cherry , Christine and Stephen ( JobsDB.com ’s , GM )

And while performing , somehow I also met my biological aunty there , Tai Kim! So shock to see my own aunty there . She just moved to the company it seems .

Me and my aunty , Tan Tai Kim

All together it was a fantastic show to say the least . Alchohol was pumping ( I am half drunk as I’m typing this ) , food was good , place was great and I had a very enjoyable time . Oh ya, when I checked the business card that I collected , I even found this at the back of one :

I’m not going to tell you who it was ( and it’s a SHE OK!!! ) , I knew you guys thought it was a HE already …!!..I think she just had one too many drinks , and din ‘t know what the hell to do with a pen lying around .=)..haha

Thanks Kerry for the show ! I had a blast ! Next one ! PJ Hilton !!

(drunk and tired)

Today while in the office doing some calculations and memorizing my script(for tonight’s La Bodega show) , I received a message from my UNI friend TINAGARAN . This guy is smart but has the tendency to be weird and outrightly gay at times . He’s a really good friend , but I just wonder why does he try to grab me everytime I get close…yuks .

Anyway , this was how the smses went…I was sitting down in office and in came an sms from Tina …

______________________________________________________________

You’ve heard it right , the all so famous Mont Kiara’s Friendster Cafe has spread it’s wings to Sunway Piramid . Got a call from Josh for their opening and went with him and Simon(starceleb.tv) to Friendster . It so happens to also be the owner’s birthday , JERRY , so it turned out to be a double celebration .

Met alot of familiar faces there , Victor, Leng Yein and John , most of Hypertune and sport car related event goers . Also did a short performance for the owners , Jerry and his bro Jeffrey who were nice chaps . Beer was on the house, Food was on the house and carrolers were singing away .

Me, Josh and Simon

Carolers ` NOEL…NOEL….NOEeeeeL ..’

The strange thing was that the place was packed with girls , most whom I’ve seen in Hypertune . Loads of models attended the opening  and I got to know that they were Jerry’s
friends . My friend , Christy Chiang , who is FHM’s Girl Next Door Winner is one of the models for Friendster’s banner ads .

And yes , the lamb shank is really worth a try .I had it for dinner . Not a lamb shank fan  , but it’s a `HIGHLY RECOMMENDED ‘ from me .

Yes, Leng Yein , also invited me to a laugerie models event in RUMMs happening on the 22nd . I’m in Singapore at that time , but for anybody who wants to go you can contact Leng Yein here

Another sucessful event . The contacts made were more than worth it .
