:: One Direction is going the right direction ::

Salam to all my readers.

The moment that I have been waiting for has finally arrived. The debut album is out! Wait, whose album!? Well, if you're a fan of this blog, which I doubt if there's any, must know the fact that I'm so into this band. They are a made-up group, formed by four judges in a reality singing competition that has completely change each of the members' lives. Their personality and their music has taken the world, and the girls, by storm. Listening to the band's first album reminded me of Westlife and Backstreet Boys during their early times. 

The band that I'm talking about here is non other than ONE DIRECTION, consisting of members Niall Horan, Zayn Malik, Liam Payne, Harry Styles and Louis Tomlinson. The band's first album is entitled Up All Night and  some reviews has been given to the album, all positive, complementing the group's carefree, youthful lyrics and pop sensibility. I am 100% sure that all 1D fans are gonna love it coz I think they have made Simon Cowell proud.

Y'all can check out the track listing for the CD below:

1. What Makes You Beautiful
2. Gotta Be You
3. One Thing
4. More Than This
5. Up All Night
6. I Wish
7. Tell Me A Lie
8. Taken
9. I Want
10. Everything About You
11. Same Mistakes
12. Save You Tonight
13. Stole My Heart

I have gone through all the songs and I was amazed at how clever they are on choosing the right songs and to make sure that this album doesn't across the youthful boundary. I am really pleased with the song choice and can't really pick a favorite. 

To all 1D fans, what are you waiting for? Go grab this album at the music stores near you.

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

It's been a while since I posted my last entry. Well, I don't expect people to ask, 'Hey, where have you been?' or 'Oitt, lama tak update blog,' because I know my level of popularity. LOL. The solid reason that I can give y'all is because I was so busy with my persatuan thingy and also a lot of assignments to be done. Seriously guys, I have so many stories to share here but didn't have time to think of the sentences. 

So, now that I'm back, I wanna give y'all a teaser to where I have been last week and what the hell that I'm doing there is all gonna be revealed on my next entry. I can't promise y'all that the next entry will be coming tomorrow but all I can say, I'm pretty excited to update about this and hopefully it can be done as soon as possible. Akhir kata, enjoy the teaser. Salam Maal Hijrah to all Muslims in the world.

:: X Factor UK Live Show 5 - The Result ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

I'm back with the X-Factor updates again. This time I won't be talking about the Live Show but I wanna highlight the Result Show which I was so shocked to see The Risk went home. Yes guys, it was The Risk who had gone home. For those who have been a fan of this show, sure you all know how talented and how brilliant The Risk were in giving an entertaining and great performance. 

Frankly speaking, I think The Risk and their partner in The Groups category, Little Mix (previously known as Rhythmix) have big chance to make it to the finale because both groups especially Little Mix are something that we haven't seen in The X-Factor yet. They are different, more talented than any other girlbands or boybands that had been in The X-Factor before. Because of that reasons, I strongly believe that both can go far in this competition but seeing that The Risk has gone, my hope now is in Little Mix. 

~ T- Before the annoucement, B- After the announcement. Look at Tulisa's face! ~

The Result Show this week is a lil bit different because it's double elimination which means, two acts will be heading home. The acts that are in the bottom 3 this week are The Risk, Johnny Robinson and Kitty Brucknell. On the first half of the elimination, we see The Risk left the competition and it's now between Johnny and Kitty. Both are in The Overs category, mentored by Louis Walsh. The judges have voted and the act that is going to follow in The Risk footsteps is Johnny Robinson.

He didn't do anything bad during his stay in the competition and I never liked him. I know that the public love him, the judges love him but come on, he is too old to be starting a career in this business. I think the only reason people love him is because of his bubbly personality. I don't think his vocal is amazing. So, I quite glad that he's gone. But the only act that I wish have gone early is Frankie Cocozza. His vocal range is so limited and with his wild attitude, I don't think he can stand strong when he is out of The X-Factor. Hope he will be eliminated next week.

:: Mom's cooking ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

First of all, I wanna wish Happy Aidil Adha to all Muslims and my readers. As you all know, I'm already at peace, typing this entry from the comfort of my bed. The other day's journey was a bit of a challenge for me because I woke up at 6 am and had to stay awake for the rest of the day until I reached home. And I have reached home safely. I had doubted my driving skills but judging from the other day, I think I have improved a lot. Kudos to myself! :)

Well, there is no place like home. Same goes to mom's cooking. Everything that my mom touches turn into something tasty and delicious which the reason why we can't resist whatever she makes. So, the other day when I arrived, she was busy making 6 Caramel Cakes for her loyal customers. Because she knew that I hadn't tasted her new recipe, so she had made one extra cake. I'm not bragging or anything but she didn't get so many orders for nothing. This is what Caramel Cake looks like.

My mom is a type of woman who is not scared to try new recipes online and whenever she got it all wrong, she will try again and again until she satisfies with the result. Usually if people try something new and it doesn't happen to be like what they expected, their enthusiasm will drop and they will stop making what they are making. This doesn't happen to my mom and sometimes, I wonder why I don't inherit this good gene. At least I can use it in my study. 

~ I also got to eat this. She bought it during her trip to Cameron Highland last few weeks. ~

I think this is all for now. See you next time with more exciting stories. Ciao!

:: See you next week! ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

Finally, the time I have been waiting for has arrived. Today (November 4, 2011) is the day where I will be packing and getting ready to go home. For people who study far from their hometown, this moment is a moment they have been waiting patiently since last week. 

Despite feeling all excited, I also feel nervous because I'm gonna be driving tomorrow. Like I said in one of my previous entry, this is my first time driving home and surely I feel the nervousness because, well, we are just a group of friends who don't know a lot about cars and the fact that I'm the only guy in the group might add a little pressure on my shoulder. Okay, I know I'm exaggerating facts but you never know what will happen.

Will be spending a week at my hometown and even though I have been provided a lot of assignments by my lecturers, they are not gonna stop me from having a great and relax time at home. When I say relax, I really mean relax. Haha. Bubbye books, bubbye lecture notes. See you next week!

:: Mak Aih! Contest Blog Eazy Izzuddin?! ::

Assalamualaikum to all my readers.

First and foremost, I want to apologize to Mr. Eazy Izzuddin because I has promised him to participate in his blog contest which I think a contest that give out the most expensive prize so far. Never heard of any contest that has Ipod Shuffle as the main prize so, I was very excited when I read about it but I was kinda busy thus couldn't participate.

Well, where to begin. Honestly, we never hung out together. Never. But thanks to blog and Facebook that has connected us until now. I just met him, once, but I don't know if that count as a meeting because at that time, I was just finished eating dinner at a restaurant and he happened to be there with his friend. So, before I left the place, he called me just to confirm that he wasn't wrong, that the person he saw in the restaurant was me. We met, finally, and spent about, urmm, 5 minutes talking before my friend came and picked me up. The only thing I regret was he asked to take a picture together but since my friend had arrived, I declined and after a moment, I thought that I should have accepted his invitation to take picture together.

As I stated above that we never met, so I don't really have a lot to say about him. But as far as I know, he is a nice guy. He owns a yellow Suzuki Swift, which he really proud of having one, and I think it's cool because he has already own something at his age. Not to mention his DSLR. He likes to take pictures of people he met, maybe as an evidence to say that he has met this person and this person. Haha. I always pick on him, saying that he is a retisss because he loves to spend time with other retisss bloggers like Cik Epal, Nisa Kay and some other famous bloggers which I have forgotten their names. Hee.


He had studied at Unisel. His convocation was last few weeks I suppose and he is now done with school. I guess he will probably going to be a freelance photographer before he start working a real job. 

If there is still blogger who doesn't know him, which I doubt that, this is him with his best friend.

~ Taken from his Facebook page ~

I know that the contest has closed and but in keeping with my promise, I make this entry. If he is kind enough, he will consider to put my name in the participant's list. Haha. Okay, I'm just kidding. So, that is it. To Mr. Eazy, am I still qualify to join? :P
