Tell me you don’t know Mickey Mouse, Donald Duck, Goofy and Pluto and I’ll whoop your booty to Timbuktu. I’ve always wanted to go to Disneyland to hug the entire Disney characters real tight and take pictures with them, have you?
It seriously tugs on all my nostalgic strings back to childhood. Those were the days when I dreamed of fleeting fairies like Tinkerbell and combing my hair with a fork just like Ariel the Little Mermaid.
Or times when I sat on the living room rug wishing it would turn into Alladin’s magic carpet and swish away to a faraway palace.
A faraway place like here!
Yes I was that delusional. But then again, aren’t all kids so? So if you fancy Disneyland and all its fantasy cartoon characters, I’m giving you a heads up on how you can be a step closer to get there!
Express and Win contest Express yourself in the most creative way with a simple green tie and if you win, you’ll be jet-setting on a trip with to Hong Kong Disneyland with the Generasi Hebat stars which I showed in [this entry] plus exclusive Generasi Hebat collectables!

Hey heyyy I know you guys have been waiting for this… and a promise is a promise come whatever. I’ll try not to let anything affect me after the bereavement of my beloved grandfather so I guess Imma just put this up right now.
So here goesss!
It was an early start of the day on Saturday, when American punk-rock outfit ‘The All American Rejects’ came down to Malaysia some nights before. Jet-lagged as they were expected to be, I was surprised they were just their quirky self, all the same… Showing no signs of lethargy.
Bumped into the Sony Manager too! 🙂 great to see ya again
We were served lunch before the press conference and ohmy, what caught my eyes were the bread & butter pudding and the scallop & asparagus mini pie-looking things!
When the 4 lads walked into the room, they were swarmed with flashes of DSLRs and other cameras alike. Yours truly, were one of them!
Hey if I don’t mobb them you wouldn’t be able to relish these photos right 🙂
While Tyson did most of the talking, he emphasized that The All American Rejects will never let their fans down by cancelling a concert just like that.
He shared with us why their concert which was initially scheduled on the 10th Oct 09 got postponed to today. I think if you knew, ya wouldn’t be that upset.
They were even sharing the microphone Look how close they are!
Tyson had a reeeelllyyy bad injury! The docs sed that his whole leg had to be amputated should he persue the earlier tour. Now we wouldn’t want that to happen to the frontliner of AAR, would we?
Digi Music Live then presented AAR an impressively framed gold framed gift and also a life-sized get well card for Tyson. So thoughtful of the organizers, no? 🙂
Crystal and I then proceeded to the round table session where we got to interview Nick and Tyson. Guess what’s the 1st thing I asked him?
HIS TATTOOS OF COURSE – being the body art fan that I am 🙂
He told us that he has 7 of them and each of it has a meaning. If I remember correctly, this was what he shared:
Lip tattoo which says ‘MUM’
Back arm tattoo : a symbol to protect him against dangerous women O_O”
Shoulder tattoo : Electrical socket (to charge the band)
Chest tattoo : AAR band logo
Finger crease tattoo : a peace symbol
*Cant remember whe re* : heart shape (did it together with his drummer)
*ant remember where & can’t remember what)
Fans lined up as early as evening!
Bryan and I then hungout in Dome cafe to kill time while waiting to head down to Bukit Jalil for the much anticipated DiGi Live Music – All American Rejects gig.
As usual, we had our top local bands kickstarting the event; such as Pop Shuvit, One Buck Short, Disagree and more. I liked the part where One Buck Short performed with singers from Bunkface and other bands because the former band’s lead singer was hospitalized.Talk about uniting in the name of music!
FINALLY The All American Rejects hit the stage, after almost an hour of our waiting while watching a looping MTV on the big screen.
They sang songs off their previous album as well as all time chart topping tracks from their latest one ‘When The World Comes Down’.
I remember headbanging really hard to some of my faves ‘Swing Swing’, ‘It Ends Tonight’, ‘Dirty Lil Secret’, ‘Gives You Hell’,
Nick was looked so suave on stage with both his acoustic and electric guitar. He’s my fave member! Sorry, another Nick photo below because I fancy him like that. 🙂
Tyson was his usual quirky self and got really hyper putting on a Native American feathered headgear for Halloween. He mentioned that it is a norm for peeps from his origin, Oklahoma.
Dirty Lil Secret!
The boys made up pretty well to their fans with more showtime on stage. More than an hour of AAR’s live performance!
Bumped into some friends who were enjoying themselves and jumping around as well!
We all had fun, I betcha! I’m sure we were really glad to catch yet another of our fave artists playing right infronta us for real!
Not many people in the world are worth my tears, but the gravity of your influence and wise words weighs more than no other man could.

Here’s a piece I wrote for you when you were battling it in the ICU:
“You taught me how to mop the floor When I was a little girl of four You made a cave for me out of blankets And never failed to buy me little trinkets
You flew kites with me in the breeze And told me bedtime stories whenever I please You made sandcastles with me in our porch I’ve always looked up to you as a guiding torch
You walked me to kindergarten every sunny day And we both shared so much banter along the way You were willing to give me the remote during a Liverpool match The sacrifice for me to watch Disney – I didn’t even have to snatch
You made History back in high school no longer an uphill task Sharing with me Japanese invasion stories each time I ask You spoke to me only in queen’s English from which I took after Buying me Enid Blytons’ as I read and learn with laughter
You came all the way for my college graduation to my surprise Time spent with you taught me how to be vary and wise You tell the other relatives how proud you are of me Your moments of pride was poignant for everyone to see
You told me not to worry and that you’ll be fine When I felt and held your hand close to mine You feared for my safety as I drove back alone to see you I wanted to be by your side and you never had a clue
You never once gave up neither did you complain Nor share us any ounce of your misery and pain You are now in the intensive care unit in deep sleep Any idea at all how much you made me weep?
You can’t make my tears stop streaming as much as I try I’m now on my balcony looking up at the same dark sky You are my living testimony with every stride I marvel at the remarkable fighter you are deep inside
I love you grandpa… and I know you’ll be alright. Promise me that I’ll see you when I come home soon.”
And I did.
Here you are lying in your coffin beside me now, I’ve read this poem out to you while you lay peacefully inside.
I don’t blame you at all for letting go, I know how much intense pain you endured and the struggles you braved whilst in hospital constantly hoping it will end soon.
And it did.
Kung kung, may you rest in peace and may the hands of our Lord touch you with every passing day and His angels surround you. Amen.

Deep inside, I know I was always your favorite and I want you to know that a huge part of you will always be with me. But for now, please, I need to stop crying. It hurts so bad to lose you and the thought of how much I’m gonna miss you, frightens me.
Happier times. I miss you so much it’s murderous. T___T
Finally back from Sabah and with thanks to Mayflower Holidays and Discovery Travel Lodge, I had an amazing discovery retreat to Mother Nature and the wild! Haha well that explains why I wasn’t able to have any proper internet connection.
