All the plus size ladies!

Dang! Look at her dance!

Me with the special guest

I remember when one of my friends tells me about her dream to become Samantha Brown. I giggled and told her that I want to be Ian Wright from the Globe Trekker as care free as I can be a travel around the world with no boundaries. We are both really a fanatic for almost every host in Discovery Channel’s Travel and Living. We are insanely crazy desires to meet every host in Travel and Living. Well chances are way real low to meet one of them. Time pass and bla bla…The next thing I know, I am dining with Ian Wright!

That special night happened on the 22nd of April 2010. The excitement and edginess started a day before. I am going to meet my traveler idol! The event starts at 7pm and we were hold up by an awful traffic jam. I am supposed to reach at the venue less than 10 minutes from my house and yet I got delayed. I reached at 7.30pm I end up sitting quite far from the stage where Ian will be the hosting a little talk on it. :S

 This is how far I am away from the stage. Sigh....

 I was served with Mojito's. I can't have enough of it. It's been awhile since I make my own cup. So I had a lot that night.

 Ian came out and starts to share about his experience in the world some least visited place.  Out of Bounds will be premiers in May 20th at 9 pm Channel 707.


When he is sharing his experiences, the guest were served with the food from where Ian has been.

 For appetizer we had Syrian Babagnoush  with Lebanese bread.I didn't get to capture the pictures as its like pita bread but more tasty .. hehhee This is what the meals look like.

I volunteer up to play games on stage.

 I am good in guessing games! I can solve it in 7 seconds. That I didn't know about it hahaha....

Today we have lost a talented producers / director. Those of you who don’t know who Yasmin Ahmad is, she was a renowned director for the movie Sepet and her latest movie Talent Time, she produced the emotional profound Petronas advertisement which we usually encounter during the festive seasons. She was famed for her advertisements and films capturing the essence of racial harmony in Malaysia. I have never disappointed with her advertisement. Her advertisement consistently is filled with passion and attention. I don’t think people will fail to acknowledge her advertisement.

She suffered from stroked and collapsed in Bandar Utama Studio last Friday and was admitted to Damansara Hospital immediately pursued with 2 brain surgeries. Yasmin Ahmad died from massive bleeding in the brain at the Damansara Specialist Hospital today.

RIP.

Michael Moore

I guess I can say I am Michael Moore’s fan. His, well so called movies or documentaries are really eye opening. I have watch Fahrenheit 911, Bowling Columbine and Sicko. It’s a must watch movies. What is happening in the US?

While browsing and reading I saw his up-to-the-minute teaser "Save our CEO” will be out soon. Trailer is out in you tube and it is something diverse from other movie trailer. It’s crazy and I like it …
