Just got back from the concert!!
 

 I brought a good friend Andrea there to the gig with me and goodness gracious, we felt so muted after it all – screaming and jumping along with Hayley & her rocksome band! 😀
 

After local punk-rock band Y2K opened for them, Paramore ripped the stage to shreds and shot us all sky high!

Now this concert, is what I'd call a riot!

We were also practically drenched in our own sweat, with so much headbanging, yelling our lungs out. dancing & everything else!

Lots of people fell down from all the insane pushing and shoving. In the Rock Zone ,there was a mini riot between the partygoers as well! Yup, it's one rough and tough night alright 😀

My lips were bleeding as someone knocked my teeth and somehow cut it.

BUT IT'S OKAY! I'm still alive LOL

All in the name of a rock concert. You want a rock concert? You GET a rock concert!

The rowdier, the better.. YEAHH??
HELL YEAH.

Also, I had real good fun screaming along to some of my fave songs like 'Brick by Boring Brick', 'Crush Crush Crush', 'Decode', 'Misery Business' and most definitely, 'Only Exception'.
 

Those were only SOME of the many songs they rocked the stage with tonight! Many more & acoustics too 🙂

yay picture of the lovely & adorable punk rocker Hayley Williams! 🙂

High5* to a fellow red-head yo

So glad to have seen her live with my very own eyes. I've been a diehard fan of Paramore for years and years now as previously mentioned [here]. Also felt so comfy in my element tonight! Met so many other fellow red-heads amongst the 8000 revellers at the gig too.

 Many thanks, Tune Talk, for bringing them down to Malaysia!

Oh and, the rain of sparks throughout the concert were simply impressive, likewise the burst of golden yellow leaves & bright red hearts at the very end!

So many more things happened! 😀  If you've been following my tweets on #ParamoreKL you would've known hehe 

I've got lots more to share with you, but let's leave it for the full blogpost alright? 😀 Gotta hit the sack now!

Nightey nights my rocksome people! 😀 😀
 

I know this seems strange that you're gonna look at speeding race cars and grid girls from a girls blog. Not that you haven't before in my previous posts, but hey, you know I was never really into all the girly stuff, sugar, spice and everything nice kinda stuff 😀

Anyway! Another sequel of my adventures in Singapore during the weekend!

Read the previous 3 – Part 1, Part 2 and Part 3 *clickety click*

My entry pass for Saturday! This is where life began for me on a fine Saturday morning

Thanks to Maxis & Lotus Racing for the sponsor 😉

That day began early for me, after having my favorite Old Chang Kee curry puff from the store (try it OMG it's unlike any other currypuff I've tried!) I headed off to the Circuit Zones 🙂

Here is a Porshe exhibition with some grid girls in tight outfits prancing around in their killer high heels.

Very pretty Porshes, but I don't fancy them too much compared to my undying love for Ferraris 😀 😀

Another one driving past during the Porshe Carrera Cup Asia Race practice

Fast forward to the night, FINALLY!

It was all about red hot Ferraris.

This is one sexy mean machine

(sorry was really dark. Forgotten to lug along my flashgun!)

It was an exclusive on-track program managed to raise $378 200 in US Dollars for the Presidents charity track parade. It was by Ferrari Owners Club Singapore and there were 25 owners participating altogether!

When I'm much older, more capable & more successful, I swear I'm getting a Ferrari.

Mark my word.

Okay, pretty pretty sights I saw during dinner! The Singapore Flyer in all its glory 😀

I remember spending an entire day up there with the boy a few months back

We're going again soon!

Are you ready for the speed demons?

You better be!

It was a frickin' uphill task shooting all these speeding 360km/h cars. My first experience in shooting F1 race cars was during Sepang F1 Grand Prix : here!

Of panning, sweating, burst modes, smeared left eye make up 😛 These are what you'll get

 Renault – Robert Kubica!

BMW Sauber – Kamui Kobayashi

Virgin Racing – Timo Glock

 HRT – Christian Klien
 

And our top 3 champs!

Say hellllooooooooo to Fernando, Vettel and Hamilton 😀

Fernando Alonso!

Sebastian Vettel!

Mark Webber!

Throughout the race, I was constantly moving all around the whole grandstand to get a better view and a strategic spot!

Absolutely despised the metal cage barricading my camera from the sight. Yeah yeah, I know it's for safety precautions and whatnot, in case F1 pulls a Final Destination 4 on us in Singapore LOL But hey, it was very obstructive 🙁

Here I am stopping at one of the spots I managed to shoot the speeding cars

At the Curve 1 – where those speed demons turn the corner after the pit stop. Drift Drift Drift!

Another oncoming bright yellow Renault – Robert Kubica!

Loves!
 

Lika bright yellow schoolbus ain't it?
 

Force India – Vitantonio Liuzzi

Mercedes GP – Micheal Schumacher

Red Bull Racing – Jamie Alguersuari

Breaktime!

When I left the grandstand to catch my breath, I was stoked to see these extremely stilt-tall men playing their music – entertaining everyone around!

They were just strolling around the entire circuit zone with their musical instruments

There were many kinds of these people around

Below is one more that I managed to catch for a picture!

Poor fellow was struggling to run on his stilts to catch up with his clan

He's like a little lost sheep! 😛

Okay, back on the race tracks!

McLaren-Mercedes – Jenson Button

McLaren-Mercedes – Lewis Hamilton

SORRY the poor guy crashed! 🙁 Getting him kicked out from the race. Disqualified!
 

Here's Hamilton again, just minutes before he crashed. Damnnn!
 

Renault – Vitaly Petrov

I shall spam more piccies of Scuderia Ferrari's Fernando Alonso simply because I was rooting for him (and his sexxxy car) from the beginning till the end. Come on red hot speed demon!
 

Show the circuit who's boss 😀

Alright. I promise you won't see any more piccies of him hereafter 😛
 

(just in case you get sick of him LOL)
 

Well, being a new fan of F1, I haven't followed closely enough to recognize all the cars and especially their drivers yet. Thankfully my good friend Bart helped me out with the identification.
 

Cheers mate

Yes I do realize I look pudgy in the photo as I was trying not to block the logo above me

yet attempting to stand straight. So here you go, a not-standing-nor-squatting version of Jess

To save the best for last, Lotus Racing racecars!

The Lotus Team have been an excellent company being with us throughout the 3 whole days of F1. They were informative and patient in guiding us all around and all we needed to know!

I even got to enter the NO ENTRY zone which was the Pit Stop paddock! Watched how race cars were perfectly engineered from scratch as well. Bits and pieces of car parts were put together by those car technicians, mechanics and engineers. The amazing thing I wondered was how they still managed to look so good looking and well groomed despite having to crawl under cars and getting their hands dirty.

I even got to take over one of their jobs for a few minutes 😀 That's for another story in the next blogpost!

 Meet Jarno Trulli of Lotus Racing
 

Behind every winner, there is a dedicated team of workforce

And I know I played a teeeeeny weeeeny part of it for those precious few minutes of helping them do up the car!

So, somewhere, somehow if you scrutinize hard enough, you'll see which part I laid my hands on! 😀

"Golden touch" LOL

I had an amazing and an eye opening experience! 😀 Thankew Lotus Racing and Maxis.
Oh and I spotted a headless board so naturally, I felt an incessant need to place my head there and be in the shoes of a racer for once!

Say, I look like racer material, do I? LOL. Tell me I do look the part hahahhaa!

Me making a funny face on the right.

The hole was too tiny for everyone and lotsa people had a hard time putting their heads in. I had to just squeeze my face and ludicrous expression in that small hole! 😀

Short post!

Had a revelation last night and I vow to be a wiser person 😀

Some of the quotes below might seem a tad personal, but then again, my life is an open book

Note : None of the words have the slightest bit of relevance to the photos. Buddy Venessa and I were just bored outta our wits one night at 2.30am and had some mild insomnia LOL. Hence the wacky webcam photos

Sometimes when the world weighs you down and you realized you've spun a tangled web,

it helps you to open your eyes to what actually went wrong

A wise person once told me,

"it's okay if you've done something wrong, most important thing is to learn from your mistakes"

I respect her for being such a forgiving person bearing no grudges

To err is human, but to forgive is divine

Intentions can be misconstrued but never let it have a chance to even BE misconstrued

With that, I vow to be a better person within my capacity… with a bigger heart! 😀

For certain sh*it life throws at you, it helps you open your eyes to reflect and see things in a clearer light

You need this sh*t sometimes, but what won't kill you only makes you stronger!

I was blind,  but now I see

For every second is a new one, and one to renew yourself with each fleeting day

On another note, my best friend Joyce has finally touched down onto Malaysian soil yesterday!

She was away to UK for studies and now she's home! If you've been a long-time reader, you would know that she's my soulmate, my partner-in-crime, my bff and everything we see in a true friend.

She loved the new fuchsia bow I was wearing..and I gave it to her immediately.

Simply because I feel she would look better in it than I do and purple is her fave color

We hung out the entire day yesterday and caught up so much!

Sharing good times and bad times, just exactly like we used to everyday back in college. 😀 Can't wait for tonight! My penang homies are throwing me a belated 21st birthday party by the pool in 69 Mansion, Batu Fehringgi + reunion of our gang 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂

Good friends are like bras, really.

They give you the best support wherever you go

hee. Two girls but only one pair of boobs? How is that possible? if you were wondering how we got this strange photo, it's actually our heads and the tip of our index finger 😀

It is actually a lot of fun fooling around with the Macbook's webcam. You'll be surprised how distorted you can look!
