Disney On Ice

Recently, me and my friends attend this fabulous event, which is Disney On Ice. My first impression when I saw the ice rink was, disappointed. It was smaller than the tennis court in my point of view. Possible slightly bigger than a badminton court.

It was held from 12, 13, 14 of march 2010. The theme was Disneyland Adventure. I do hope the next time when i am going to disney on ice, I need to check out the theme before coming. In my opinion, this theme isnt as thrilling and fun as the previous ones that comes to malaysia and perform. Which is Princess Wishes held on the same place. Stadium Putra Bukit Jalil.



We paid 178 for the side rink second row seats. Not very far from the ice rink, so we did get to see the characters upclose. But seeing the kids around me, i felt that am i too old for this? The little kids was wearing their disney princess outfits, making them so cute and lovable.

My friends and I took my friend's car. Its was a manual kancil. I daresay i sucks in driving a manual car even though i pass from it. So my friend, Christine, drive us to Bukit Jalil. Me as the directory? LoL , i mean i have the way to go to Bukit Jalil, and i am guiding her the way. BUT even with the way and map, we did get lost due to some weird ass petrol station dude, who pointed us to the highway -.- THAT lead us to town literally. I saw the twins tower and Petronas tower and I went, I think you are on the wrong highway -.-'' This is like the north south, seremban highway.. Lol-ing on the way due to the wrong turn, and I was right the first time, when i said turn to the left, BUT didnt know we have to u turn to go into the stadium parking lots. So in the end, we did arrive safely xD...

We bought A&W for lunch. (Its the only stall there which sells full hearty meals). The weather isnt being friendly towards us as much as the car. Turns out, the kancil have problems with the battery wires. It was hot as hell, but thankfully i was wearing shorts but with LONG sleeves clothing x.x''.. After we bought our food, we went in line to get into the stadium. It was full of people, but seriously i do feel i am too old for this ice show. Everyone surrounding me are kids with parents, and three of us are like young adults? xD

There was a very nice old man just outside the waiting area, who is so kind and friendly compare to the local girl inside the stadium -.-''' Both of them are selling the programs book, but judging from what i see, the old man have more customer compare to the local girl. Yes the old man isnt a local but he is good in different language ^^ go him!

This is what happen exactly. As in like what i see in my own eyes. Outside this old man which is friendly smile and cheerie talks, makes everyone buys the program book without hesitation. These are the few lines i remember him saying (programs for disney on ice, ring a ding ding its a nice show, buy one now and enjoy yr show, hello young lady you want to buy a nice program book?, apa khabar? khabar baik? hello mei mei, ni hao ma? want to buy a pretty program book?) COMPARE to the local girl (program programs programs) all the time.. WITHOUT a smile. So who will actually get more sales? ^^

So yea the Disney On Ice start off with the parade on mainstreet introduction mickey and minnie and the rest of the gang. Introducting us the events or parts of disneyland. (cause i been to disneyland in HK before) so technically just around the disneyland and suchs. Fantasyland, alice in wonderland, hunted mansion, (i forgot where buzz lightyer was from again), pirates of the carribean, also they introduce Manificient, (no idea why does they do that), Stitch (lilo and stitch from hawaii), Papa bear ( jungle book) and of course how can we forget Incredibles to save the day. Finally during the parade, they bring out snow white, cinderella, chips and dale... i think i mention most of the characters that appear. Also they have break betweens the show which i think its a very good thing due to kids who cant hold their bladder, (reason why i hate kids in cinema)

And parts i love most? Is the Haunted Mansion and Pirates of the Carribean. I guess its because of the dance and the clothing that amaze me the most.

Thats all from me ^^ signing off <3

Final Call

Yes final call. Its my final semester this year. Starting by tomorrow, i am the senior student. Some may say its a good thing and we shall celebrate and cherish the end of the semester.

There is a little something i want to share. I know during chinese new year, there have been alot of happenings, and yes i hate it too myself. My grandma in the hospital, my dad going weird on the family business, and not able to see my cousins again due to my dad temper hasn't gone down.

But i had a blast during the 3rd day of chinese new year with my mum's side relatives. We had an reunion dinner and of course not forgetting chinese style karaoke xD. Those are just my mere memories now. Same goes to my beloved lecturer.

Ms Aizati. She is a lecturer, a friend, and also a rocker.

When i first met her, i thought she was just a student. Due to she is really small in sizes and doesnt look like a lecturer. xD It was my 3rd semester. When our first class with her. I remember my first time talking to her face to face. She is the kindest lecturer i have ever met in the university since i step into any classes. She never treated us like a students at all, but as a friend.

Our friendship grew more as we meet her again in semester 4 and 5. She brings us out for a field trip and introduce us to her friends which are working in the industry. More over helping us entering contest and such. She see so much potential in us and tries in her every way to help us grow.

I owe her so much as she often loves to sit with us and tell us about her experience, her life story, how she become what she is now. The things that often a normal lecturer wont share nor tell. She even points out which is her fav bikes to travel with as we admire rocking mum style!

Life is short, when she was taken away from me. She had an accident when she was on the way to her speed bike racing. The moment i still remember when my friend Thing Thing, sent me a late night message. I was shock and filled with coldness. Thinking and hoping my friend was just joking about it. But I was wrong... very wrong... Just only a couple of weeks before she passed away, there was depressing news about her. She was leaving my university and quitting as a lecturer. At least she is offering her hand in help if we need any even though when she isnt a lecturer in my uni anymore. After that message i received, i figured, its all gone. She is really gone. Gone from my life, my sight... but never my mind and heart...

During that time of sadness, there is one song that i was listening to and gives me strength.

Nickleback - If today was your last day.

My best friend gave me the best advice
He said each day’s a gift and not a given right
Leave no stone unturned, leave your fears behind
And try to take the path less traveled by
That first step you take is the longest stride

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
If today was your last day

Against the grain should be a way of life
What’s worth the prize is always worth the fight
Every second counts ’cause there’s no second try
So live like you’ll never live it twice
Don’t take the free ride in your own life

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?
Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

If today was your last day
Would you make your mark by mending a broken heart?
You know it’s never too late to shoot for the stars
Regardless of who you are
So do whatever it takes
‘Cause you can’t rewind a moment in this life
Let nothin’ stand in your way
Cause the hands of time are never on your side

If today was your last day
and tomorrow was too late
Could you say goodbye to yesterday?

Would you live each moment like your last?
Leave old pictures in the past
Donate every dime you have?
Would you call old friends you never see?
Reminisce of memories
Would you forgive your enemies?
Would you find that one you’re dreamin’ of?
Swear up and down to God above
That you finally fall in love
If today was your last day

Thankfully during my orientation, my lecturers did a short silent moment for Ms Aizati, but there wasnt any music towards the slide show of her pictures. Eventhough, I felt sad and tears just leak from my eyes slowly wetting my cheeks.
