LOST COUNT

There were so much happenings within the last 2 mths that i lost count of all the issues which i wanted to put here. I'm back here again on this beautiful sunday. Well, let me try to flashback as much as possible on wat happened here.

VIRUS
My streamyx connection was disconnected (as usual) and took a few reports b4 they reset the port. This was during the Raya holidays. So, i had quite quiet days during the raya holidays at home catching up my house chores and relocating some shelves to other corners. When finally they reset the port, i couldn't surf to any damn websites or even login to msn. Yes....my comp got virus. It affected the browser. And then i had to reformat my pc. I reformatted the pc and when i went online, immediately i got another virus, almost instantly. I got the Sasser worm. I found the patch but somehow the performance of the pc got slower till the point i couldn't stand it. I reformatted the pc the 3rd time and finally now, is working fine.

KLAFW
Last week was the KL-Asia Fashion Week. It was a great show indeed and i guess the organizer did a good job even though there were some criticism here n there. But of all the nights, i think the CNN sponsored night was the best as the top 12 local designers gave their best show at avenue K, rooftop. I wanted to include some pics here but i haven't got my photoshop software installed yet. maybe you all can check it out at Yongshen's blog. There were some nice shots too. O ya...on the last night of the show, one of the model's tube came down.......ahhhhh...and i missed it! coz i was bz trying to make a clear focus on the model.

EVENTS
Mth of November was most hectic as there were so many events to attend. Had to attend, just becoz had to make contacts. There were many launches and clubing events. BUt sadly, most of the DJs that came this mth didn;t play their best. Most friends tot we spend a lot on our clubing nites. What they didn't notice is that we dont pay cover when we go to these events and maximum, we spend only RM15 for the beer. On some nights, we don't event drink at all. Sound a bit cheapskate la.. ya..well, what to do. Times are hard these days. But most importantly is that we go to most of these events for the music n dance. Is kinda personal. I really do not know how to explain in words. Imagine, 3 blokes in zouk, enjoying n grooving away without much chat and drinks. Of coz, there were times we did feel boring and kinda tired of these clubing nites. Since i am doing the magazine, i feel that by knowing what is going on around in some of these places are a good thing coz i'm updated all the time. Some say i am giving excuses coz i wanted to go clubing. erm.... given a choice, i would rather stay home and play some computer games or go date some girls out for movie. What kinda research or things i can find out at these clubs, u may ask. Well, one thing is we know which club is most frequented and by what kind of people, what kind of music they play and where are these clubbers go or choose when there are some events clash on the same day. By updating myself, i guess is easier to have conversation as i know what they are talking about. Like I only came across "Morning Class" 3 mths ago. Even though i knew this place for over a year but i didn;t know thre is such term. So, if you don;t know what is it...try asking around :)

Magazine
Gettin much response and feedback. Of coz we can do better than what we are doing now. Only setback is we are not supported by some big companies etc. And manpower is another issue which is hard to tackle when there weren't much funds to play around. On doing this magazine for so many mths, i noticed there were many ppl came into my life and helped in many ways. maybe they didn't know how much i appreciate their help or maybe their help is expected much in return frm me. I wish i could accomodate and make them happy with all their requests. There were many a times when i was almost at a breaking point. Somehow, i know i can't give up yet as there were too many ppl i wan to return the favour and also for myself. When i flipped thru the pages, i kinda complimented myself as i did went thru and brought all those articles n pics in. Not an easy task but i managed to pull it thru. of coz not forgettin those ppl who helped and executed the magazine. There are many problems which ppl can;t see. The work and problems are so much that sometimes i don;t even know which one to tackle first. When i think back how i started a year ago, i guess i had brought this burden to myself as though i was predestined to take up such path. Who would in the sane mind take such a risk to do a magazine? I did. i dunno why. Maybe bcoz i saw an opportunity. Maybe i wanted to survive. Maybe, i was destined to walk this path and carry those burden to understand what is the meaning of 'struggling to success'. I had brought this thing onto myself. And now, the 'real' weight is coming down on me. How would i fare?? Whatever happen in the next mth, it happens for a reason.

god bless.
