Till we meet again

Day 10: 1Malaysia

Q1 : What do you think of 1Malaysia? Please explain your answer (likes, dislikes, emotions etc) in details. What is your vision of Malaysia in the next 5 years?

I have neutral feelings towards it. It hasn't had any affects on me? I don't know
about you guys but I don't feel any extra patriotic feelings or such feelings ever
since it started? 5 years from now, this program might just be forgotten, it's not like
it's giving such a big impact now, I don't see it getting any better. Maybe it's the way
that they try to approach us that isn't working. To the youths especially. Come on,
you can't deny that most students these days just wanna get over high school and
leave this country right?

Q2 : What do you think about the various races in this country? Do you think about your race or country first? Why? Do you think there is a tension between the various races in this country or not?

Yeah I think there is a tension among the races but that's just some people.
The ones that are so close minded. Every race here plays a very important role in
this country without a doubt. No roti canai without Indians, no nasi lemak without
Malays and no char keow teow without the Chinese. Okay I didn't really know what to
put for the Chinese but you get the damn point. Race doesn't really matter to me, I
mix with everyone in school. Although we do give some harsh racist jokes but we all
just laugh to it together. So stop being morons and just live together.

Q3 : How do you think people from all over the world see Malaysia? Do you think there is a typical “Malaysian” stereotype? How would you want people to view “Malaysians” in the future?

I, have, no, idea. I mean I'm being really honest I have no idea. I guess they
see it as a destination spot. The beaches, highlands, forests and food. A typical Malaysian
would be the ones with mixed Bahasa and English, you know, like that wan lah.
I doubt we'll change must, although it isn't such a good thing, but that's what
makes us Malaysians. So I don't know what you outsiders are gonna be thinking
but we aren't changing!

Editor's note (haha :P)

This was an awesome experience for me, I'd definitely want more of this! I know I've been
complaining that it's a pain in the ass to blog so much and some posts weren't so well written.
It's just that I'm in the middle of my mid term exams. I have to rush the topics on weekends
because I have to study on the weekdays. Now I know in a way how it feels to be a full time
blogger, getting in the mood is so difficult and when you have a crowd with expectations it's also
difficult to satisfy them with constant posts. Well that's all, thanks for having me Youthsays and Ronn. Count me in for future projects!

Over & Out till we meet again.

This is getting crazy

Day 9: Brands

Q1 : Is branded products important to you? What does brand represent to you?

In a way yes, it's not so important that I need to have it. If I could,
I would just rather have it, you know that kind of thing. Brand represents someone's
status, how successful they are. You have good brands, you have good income.
You won't see a beggar wearing LV jeans, you won't see Donald Trump wearing
a 5$ 100% cotton shirt.

Q2 : Are there any brands that you think stand up for something (an attitude/cause or point of view) that you agree with? Tell us more. What brands do who think are the best at communicating with youth?

Stands out the most? None actually, although I admire Apple for their
awesome gadgets. I think Apple products can be a medium for youths to
communicate. Most of the youths these days have iPods. Maybe when they see each
other with an iPod they'd think that they have something in common and would
start talking to each other? Maybe? The online apps in the iPod touch and iPhones
like online games can connect people too. Not just locally, but internationally.

Q3 : List down your favourite brands and tell us why do you like them

Apple; awesome gadgets
Epiphone; good guitars
Nike; comfortable sportswear
Ruffles; best original chips
Longman; exercise books? Haha

Q4 : Can you upload two advertisements (picture or video) that you like and tell is why you like it.

Apple's Mac vs PC ads are awesome. They always show how much a PC
sucks in a nice way :P Sorry but I can only think of one!

Q5 : Are there any brands or products that you would be embarrassed of using or being associated with?

Yusof Taiyoob (saying in repeatedly in that creepy girls voice)

Q6 : Does religion influence your choice of brands? If ‘yes’ explain your answer.

Yeah it does for just one reason, since I'm a muslim, I can't buy/touch
any pig skin products. Yeah, that's it.

Q7 : What/where do you find new information about products that you like?

Mostly online, I'd compare and check out the price and stuff like that.
Then going to the shops to see the real deal. The internet is a great place to scout
info for something. You can read reviews of others who have used the product
before too see if it suits you and stuff.

Over & Out.

Due date?

Day 8: List down your favourites

Q1 : Tell us about 3 things that you have seen, read or listened to recently that you love and have recommended or share with others (in Facebook, face to face conversations, online, etc)?

Heart Heart Heartbreak by Boys Like Girls. I think it's a really good
pop-rock song. It's the song I play to myself when I'm down or heartbroken.
I've shared it with many of my friends. I think some of em even
got annoyed from me asking them to listen to it.

There also was this story about a Japanese girl that I spreaded to my
friends. I read about it from my friend originally and it was horrifying.
The girl was brutally tortured for about 40 days so? They have detailed
descriptions on how she was tortured. She was raped, beaten up
and many more. The worst part was, the killers never got caught!

That's all I can think of at 7 in the morning...

Q2 : What is on your ‘must see’, ‘must do’ and ‘must have’, list for 2010?

Must See;
- Boys Like Girls (again)
- Hollywood Superstar
- Myself smiling after each SPM paper

Must Do;
- HUGE gig
- Study..
- Get on newspapers/magazines
- Drive

Must Have;
- 4th Generation iPhone
- iPad
- Marshall Guitar Amp
- Apple Cinema Display

I'm gonna stop there for the 'Must Have' because I can seriously go on
forever.

Q3 : What is your favorite outfit/set of clothes at the moment, please send us pictures and tell us why you like them.

I guess it's plaids/chequereds with jeans? Here's some shots




I like wearing them because it looks very, country rock? Haha. I can imagine
a girl answering this question and writing it 10x longer.

Q4 : Put picture and show us your top favourite gadget, collections, toys, things or any items that you can't live without and tell us why

Oh this is simple, the most important one is my iPhone. Everything is in it, I can
live without my MacBook but not without my phone. My contacts, pictures,
movies, games, and many more are on that device! I use it to get things from
eBay, go online, email, GPS and so much more. I don't know if I'd be
the same rocking person today if I didn't have it.

Next would be my guitars. They're my rocking tools. I also play them
to release stress. My mum once got worried because I played the guitar
too much during PMR. Guitars are definitely the best musical instrument ever.

I can't live without my music either. Oh wait, it's in my phone too...

Over & Out.
http://ariffsuffianzainal.blogspot.com/

Fun, fun & more fun.

Day 7: Entertainment

Q1 : Which are your favorite TV shows and how do you watch them (TV, Youtube, download, friend, stream)?

House MD, My Name is Early, The Big Band Theory and some others
that I don't keep up with. I usually try to buy the season DVD's but if I can't then
I'll just search for them online. The tv shows that I stated above are the ones that I keep
up with. Some that I don't are like CSI. Fyi, I don't watch glee and never will.

Q2 : Do you like music and fashion? Where do you learn about new trends in music and fashion (from friends, celebrities, magazine)?

Yeah obviously! Music for performing, fashion for what I'm wearing on stage! Haha.
Hmm, I get some inspirations from seeing other performers online. Checking out
their live concert photos from blogs. Sometimes I ask advice from my friends too.
And at times, I'd stumble upon something nice in the magazines and might just
try it out, for fun.

Q3 : Please tell us about singers and bands you are into, and why do you like them? Where do you get most of your music? (download, buy CD, take from friend, etc.)

Honestly I listen to all type of music from country to metal but if I had to choose,
I'd say Pop Rock. Pop songs are really great because they're usually written
based on an event or an emotion. When you play the song you can feel what the
writer feels too. I get most of my music from the stores and friends. I'd borrow the
CD's and rip them into my itunes. If I really can't fine a particular song, then I'd
search for it online.

Q4 : Do you enjoy reading books? What are the last three books you have read?

It's depends, if you definition of books are the long ones filled with words only then, no.
If it's magazines and such books filled with pictures then yeah, I do. I don't know why,
but it's just not me. I can't enjoy and 300 paged book filled with words only like
some of you, I just can't get the excitement out of black printed words on yellow paper.
I need COLOURS. PICTURES. Something that stands out on every page.


Just thought I'd share this photo of some kids break dancing in MPH that I took.

Q5 : What/where do you find new information about entertainment that you like?

Online, they're free and I can't all of the info I want. I have some websites that'll I'll check
out everyday for interesting news on tech and gadgets. Maybe sometimes I'd buy
the magazines, when I have more time or just getting ready to go for a long
trip. I don't subscribe to any of the magazines though. But surely one of the best
ways to keep yourself updated with info is through the internet. Your already
paying to TM for it right, might as well use it to the fullest.

Over & Out.

I almost forgot.

Day 6: Social Networking

Q1 : What communication medium (SMS, Instant Messenger, Phone, Twitter, Facebook), do you and your friends use the most to communicate through and why? What are the positives and negatives of each?

Honestly, all. For me, I use all of em everyday. But if you want the most used
to communicate with my friends, I'd say IM, and facebook. Almost everyone in school
is on facebook. Even some of the teachers, it's so easy to connect and reach out
to others through. You can send homework reminders, sometimes I'd even upload my
class timetable to help them out!

The only disadvantage would be when we talk online, we might get carried
away and waste many hours. That's it actually.

Q2 : Is social networking sites like Facebook or Twitter making your life better or worse?

To me, it's giving somewhat of a neutral effect? Facebook & twitter doesn't make me
smarter (educationally), maybe I'll learn something new here and there but it's
unlikely gonna help me in my school exams. Well, unless they're spreading out
tips and leaked questions online. I've said this billions of times, when you use facebook,
there's a high probability that you'll get carried away. I used to play the games on facebook.
I'd check the games every few minutes and every morning before school! But then one
day I've just came to my mind that this is so stupid and wasting my time. I blocked all
the games, till now.

Q3 : Please list the number of online social networking sites (Facebook, Friendster, Twitter, blog) which ones you are a member of and why you chose to have a profile/account on each of them? What activities do you usually do when you are social networking sites?

Blogger
For me to express out my feelings, write what I feel like writing without any rules.
And of course, earning a little cash.

Facebook
Everyones on it, it'll be weird if a tech 'geek' like me isn't. There's so many things
that could be done of FB like meeting new friends and going to events.

Twitter
A site to release my depressed feeling. I don't do it on FB because it's too public and
people can comment on it. It gets annoying.

Nuffnang
I think every Malaysian blogger has this? It's for you to earn a little extra cash.
They often has projects and movie screenings too. Gone to a couple before.
All I gotta do is blog blog blog.

Youthsays
Somewhere I can voice out my thoughts. See what others have to say.
See the events, take surveys. Help the YOUTH!

Ultimate Guitar
Because I'm a rockstar and the site allows me to learn some cool songs.

Youtube
For my entertainment! I also subscribe to tech reviewers to keep myself updated.

Q4 : How many Facebook/Friendster/MySpace/Twitter friends do you have? Who are these people? How many of these do you consider ‘close friends’? How many of them have you not meet before?

Not many, I've only 588 friends on FB. Some people have nearly 2000?
Reason being, I don't add people I don't know and I don't accept requests from weird
people/pervs. It's annoying when you don't know the person and
you keep seeing his status updates. I'd say around 100 or less of them are
my close friends. Hmm, maybe 200? But I'm sure I'll bump into them sooner
or later right?

Q5 : Do you prefer to meet people for the first time online or face-to-face? Why?

Online first. Then meet up :) Umm because, I don't think I'll be so much of
'myself' when I talk to the person when meeting face to face first. When you talk to em
online you get to know a bit about each other first. But I don't know, this isn't really a good
way, it might destroy your real life social skills. When you go out with the person you might
just, stone. One more thing, don't end up talking online to a perv and then meeting up!
Watch your own butt in the online world.

Q6 : Do you have Twitter? If yes, how many followers do you currently have? Who do you follow?

Yeah I do, here's my twitter ariffsays. I currently have 48 followers, I know it's
not that much. I don't brag on people to follow me on twitter, they'll follow me
if they want to. I'm following 11 people, my close buddies, some daily quotes and
Martin Johson! Twitter is also another nice was to keep in touch
with your friends and see what they're up to.

This is, fun.

Day 5 : Going Online

Q1 : How many hours do you go online everyday? What do you usually do in the online world?

Around 6 or more hours? But now since it's SPM year the hours have been cut down.
It does allow me to study more when I turn off the laptop, but I still go online,
surf the web and other stuff using my phone. Usually, I would go online to chat with
my friends and check my facebook, blog and twitter. I mean those are
the sure to do things when I have the internet with me. Besides that I go to tech blogs,
youtube to watch vids ranging from reviews to music covers. I also find interesting
projects like this to do online. That's is honestly, what do you expect from a 17
year old? Haha

Q2 : When you go online and interact with other users, do you use any nickname/alias profiles online? Tell us why you use it or don’t use it.

I don't and I don't I have ever tried to use it either, reason being I think I might forget my
'online identity' or mix it up with my real one. I use my name, my social email but I don't
usually let out my phone number, address and such stuff you know.

Q3 : Have you become good friends with people you first met online? Tell us stories of how you make friends in the online world. How do you know whether to trust them or not?

Yeah I have. through facebook mainly. But it's not the type of people that are from
across the world of something like that, it's the new people I meet that are around
my state, different schools and such. I think facebook is an awesome place to search for new
friends. Facebook can also tell how reliable that person is. I can somehow tell how the person
is by his photo's and the way he types. That's how I figure out someone at the start. I don't
really like people to type LIk3 tH1s. They just annoy my to hells gate.

Q4 : Tell us if your parents monitor what you access online? Is it effective, or do you know ways around the controls? What do your parents think about you going online all the time?

They do, and I guess it does helps when they make me turn off my laptop because if
not then I'll be really glued to it. They think it's corrupting me and wasting my time in a way.
Haha if only they knew I'm getting paid for this. I don't think it's a shit waste of time at all.
The amount of information and new things I learn through the web are priceless.
It also annoys me when they never seem to come in the room when I have the laptop on
and studying at the same time. They also find the right time to come when I'm having a
break from studying and using the laptop!

Q5 : Do you think the online world has made you to become more disconnected with your friends?

I've never really been disconnected from my friends, and now that there's services like
facebook, I can always see what they're up to and keep in touch with them. I can
start events and send invites using facebook with ease. I do agree though that some
people get too caught up with the online world that they'll forget about their
real life. I gotta admit sometimes I forget about mine too, I spend hours in my room.
Hardly go out to exercise or anything but I try to avoid that. I'm gonna get my license
soon so I hope I can go out with my friend more often and meet new people!

Over & Out.

I've lost track of my studying time

Day 4 : Work and Money

Q1 : How important is money to you? Tell us what do you think about money.

I really hate this question, you know why? Because I just wrote an essay about the
importance of Money for my mid year Eng exam a couple of days ago and my brain
is really worn out from it but for your sake, I'll talk a bit.

Money is very important to me, as you know I like to updated like the latest gadgets.
I know that I don't pay for most of them now but I'll soon need to right. I also spend a lot
on my musical equipment & related stuff, I bought a new guitar last week

Then when you have a guitar, there's always a time where you have to change the string,
get a nice case for it, and send in for service. Which requires an amount of money.

I think we're enslaved by money, don't you?

Q2 : Where do you get your money? Do you have a part-time job or do you receive an allowance from your parents, or both? Have you done any part time jobs before to earn your allowance?

My parents mostly, I've always wanted to try a part time job for the experience but never
done it before. I help sell brand new guitars and amps sometimes! Now you know
who to contact when you wanna get your first guitar! Then I also get paid through online sites
like Nuffnang and Youthsays.

Q3 : If you want to buy something, do you usually save up or will you get it straightaway compare?

I would take in some serious consideration about it first, find that perfect 'one' and just
aim high for it. If it's really expensive I would usually ask my parents to pay in a bit :)
But I kinda have all that I want now, so I don't really spend that much on new things.
Maybe just for outings with friends and such stuff.

Q4 : How important to your generation is having a strong work ethic and be hardworking in work?

How important? Well, very. Do you know how many people there is in the world?
I don't either but I'm sure a hell lot and if you don't work properly you're just gonna get
replace. As simple as that. Besides that, when you work harder you'll most probably
be promoted or have a higher pay! But something to keep in mind is, work smart,
not hard. Don't waste your time.

Q5 : What do you think about the current economic climate? Did it affect you, your family and your outlook on the future?

Currently it's stable, couple of months ago it was in a shitty state I guess. I think it would
somehow in someway affect everyone. To my family, we had to spend less. You know, cut
down on expenses. It didn't affect my future though, I doubt anything would. I really have high
hopes on my future, whatever it is I'll be. I pray that it'll be awesome.

Q6 : What do you think are the three coolest jobs in the world and why? What are the three jobs least coolest job in the world, and why?

Coolest jobs eh, a rockstar I guess. Getting payed to play your music. Being famous,
on stage in front of thousands of fans screaming your name out. Having fan sites,
shirts signed and sold for thousands on eBay, and a custom made guitar haha.
Crazy but it's true.

A professional football ain't that bad either. Yes the one's like Rooney, Messi and Ronaldo.
The too play and get paid, hundreds of thousands. That doesn't include the ads they
do. Gosh they get all their equipments sponsored too! They pay them the money
to buy the equipments, but then companies will sponsor them the equipments.
Then they're just left with the money, tell me that's awesome.

Lastly, it would most probably having my own guitar business. It would be a dream
to have my own line of guitars, my designs. Competing will all the other brands
like Epiphone and Gibson. My guitars being used by other performers. My own shops
all over the world. I can just walk into the shop and pick and guitar out and
walk out!

I realized all of the 'jobs' above are, kinda crazy but it's worth aiming for. Nothing
to lose. Gotta start working hard, alright I'm off to study for tmrw's exam!

Over & Out.

Going strong!

Day 3: Ambition & Success

Q1 : Share with us any success or achievement stories you have got so far, whether it is big or small

Let's just go with the little things, the number of times I performed this year so far has
beaten all the other years. I like performing, as a band. Playing the music for them to hear.

It's a really great feeling on stage I tell you, I still do get nervous before going up. That leads
to the next achievement. I used to be nervous on and off stage when performing.
But the experience has calmed me down, I still do get nervous mind you. Just before the
gig I'll just sit alone and listen to my iPod of go on FB to calm myself down but that's
about it, and when I go up stage, everything just fits into place.

Q2 : How do you define a ‘successful person’, what are the elements that make someone successful? Tell us why.

To me, a successful person is someone who;
1 - Doesn't have to work in an office 24/7
2 - Loves doing his job
3 - Have lot's of friend/family
4 - Makes a decent amount of money
5 - Has time for himself

That's how I want to be really. I don't wanna work in a boring office for the rest off my life.
I wanna work smart, not hard. I want to be happy when I do my job. I don't want to be
waking up every morning miserably knowing that I have a sucky job. I also don't
wanna be so caught up with forget everything besides work becomes irrelevant to me.
Yeah you saw this coming, a successful person must make money, well, duh.

Q3 : What inspires you? Do you have any role models?

What inspires me? Good Performers I guess. Seeing them going up the stage being so bold and
brave. Not caring about what if, just doing what it feels right to them with no
regrets. I had this English essay to do last year, about my role model. You know
who I wrote about? I wrote about myself. I told the teacher how I am my own role
model and how I inspire myself. It was a decent 3 and a half pages, got good marks too!

Q4 : Do you have any ambitions? What three ambitions/goals have you set yourself for the next year, the next five years and your life?

Yeah many, logical and out of the world ambitions. I've got a thing for computers
actually. You know, tech stuff. It's interesting to me and I think that'll mostly be my
choice in a career. Something in that field, I haven't made up my mind yet thought because all of this is making me

Stressed out.

I don't mind being a part time performer too. Going to gigs weekly, being known.
Gosh that'd be so awesome.


The goals to achieve my dreams are fairly simple,
study hard,
&,
ROCK HARDER.

So far, so good.

Day 2: Family & Friends

Q1 : Tell us about your family structure and members. Tell us stories about your time spent with family. Bring us to become part of your family!

I have loving parents, who will buy me most of the things I want :P There's always
there to support me, even though with really odd ways sometimes haha. I have a younger
brother and I'm the eldest. My brother is still in primary school so I gotta sometimes
help him with his homework and surprisingly, I can't answer his questions sometimes.
I spend a decent amount of time daily with them, for example dinner and prayers.
My grandma doesn't stay with us, she only comes a couple of times a year to stay
for a while. We go back the kampung where she stays sometimes during Raya.

Q2 : Tell us who are your best friends and why do you like to hang out with them and the activities you all frequently do together.

I don't wanna state names because there's too many of you guys and I don't wanna
leave out on any one of you so to make it seem fair, I'm gonna talk about my classmates.


This is us during our recent class photoshoot. I can't upload much because I'm not supposed to expose the pics before the magazines get printed out but here's a few shots.
I swear we are the coolest class ever, almost everyone is a musician in class! Heck we even have
a class band, called Potato Punishment! My classmates are the greatest people ever, some
geniuses, jokers and rockstars. I've learned to mix with all of them and have learned a lot
from them too, mostly not, academic stuff haha.


Last year during Physics class, teacher decided to call us up to perform! We'd bring our
guitars every week without permission, I'd sometimes bring
my ukulele along. There's many more stories but I'll save them for another day :)

Q3 : When you are meeting new people how do you describe yourself?

Honestly, I think I'm kind of 'shy' at the start but after a while, haha. Hell has been
released! I'm always interested in meeting new people, especially those 'unique' type
of people. The 'not your usual day people'. They're always nice to get to know,
someone you can exchange thoughts and experience with.

Q4 : Is identity important to you and your friends? How important is standing out / being different to you and your friends?

Yeah it is important because, obviously we want to be cool. Do you want to be an
unknown loser? I mean honestly speaking, who'd want that right? Standing out is nice
because people see you different, your not just some passerby that they don't
even know which class your from. But if you over do it then your just gonna be
a, bitch.

Q4 : Does religion affect your choice of friends? Explain your answer

Not at all. I'm a Muslim, and this is me, having lunch

next to my friends dog. Religion doesn't really matter to me when it comes to friends.
I can tell you that most of my friends a Chinese Christians and I get a long very well
with them. Heck my band members are all Christian except for me but we're cool
with each other.

I don't think you should be so close minded and let religion affect your choice of friends.
Your having a major loss in life by doing that. You should treat others well too,
if you want them to do the same. Don't give bad comments about other people's religion,
you'll just start a fight. Respect each other. You can exchange thoughts but don't get
too personal over it.

Q5 : How do you and your friends like to categorize people of your age group . i.e EMO, Skater, JPop, KPop fanatic, Hip Hop, Goth, freak, geek, shutterbug, others? What are the three most popular groups/looks amongst you and your friends?

Rockstars, Handballers & Apple users.

We like to categorize people into many groups, both mean and nice and the same time.
There's the debaters, musicians, nerds, possible mental breakdown-ers, twitters,
Malays, Chinese, guitarists, wrist slit-ers, silent but deadly, ugly, math geeks,
BLG fans, iPhone/iPod users. Okay some of them were just fake.

The iPhone/iPod class group might be the coolest. We usually talk about the
applications available. Mostly games that we can play online to battle against each
other and stuff related to that. We update each other with app offers and such stuff too.
Haha such losers!

Here we go

Day 1 : Youth Today (About Youth and You)

Q1 : What’s the best thing about being youth today? Do you think the future is bright, for your generation or do you think the future is something to worry about?

Well to me, I think it's the awesome gadgets that we have to entertain
ourselves these days ranging from computer games all the way to an iPad.
Not only to they entertain us but they make our everyday lives so much more simpler.
Yeah the future looks bright, talking about how intense the sun is shining on to us
everyday of course. I joke, but yeah the future does look bright for us. There's nothing
major to worry about to me, yeah maybe we have economic downfalls here and there
but we'll survive. We just gotta stick together all the way!

Q2 : Do you think “youth” (people like you) are rebellious in nature? Do you think youth today rebel like they used to before? Explain. Do you/have you rebelled against anything or anyone in the past? Explain.

I don't really think so and no. Kids before weren't as rebellious as kids today I guess.
I'm not saying most of the kids today are but they number are higher if you compared them.
Yes I have, many times. Especially when my dad tells me to get off the laptop
and study. I'll just do the opposite! Which will end up in him keeping my laptop on the
weekdays..

Q3 : Do you think youth today have an easier or harder life than our parents’ generation? Please explain your answer.

Simple, BOTH. It's easier because most of us have the facilities that our parents didn't
have like a proper study table and a computer. Although it is harder too because of
pressure they put on us. I'm saying this because I'm still a high school student and that's
what we basically go through till we support ourselves. But if you want an overall answer
I'd definitely day our lives are way easier than theirs. An example is like, we can
basically get any information off the web in a matter of seconds. During their time, I think
they had to go through thousands of pages of books and such stuff?

Q4 : What is your biggest fear in the world…other than death?

My parents reaction if I don't get straight A's for SPM. Umm let see, losing my iPhone.
I seriously cannot live with out it, my life, revolves around that little magical
device!

Q5 : What makes you happy?

THIS makes me happy :) Other than that my friends never fail to bring a smile to
my face. Bla bla bla music cheers me up too, especially performing!


Being on stage and hearing the crowd cheer and sing along is one of the best experience
ever. I know this is materialistic but money makes me really happy. I know they say
money can't buy happiness, I agree it's true but money can buy thing that'll
make you happy! And there's so many things that I want to have!

Q6 : What has been the most difficult hurdle you have overcome so far in your life? What did this experience teach you?

Getting hospitalized, twice? Dislocated and broke my wrist during Sports day back in
2007 and cut my leg open last year in school after attempting a vicious flying kick
and obviously it didn't go so well :p


What did I learn from this? No, it's not to be more careful in life but to enjoy
life to max when your young and rockin'. No regrets, no limits, just ENJOY!
You only get to be young and crazy once so you might as well enjoy it
to the fullest.

Q7 : Which has more importance today in your life - family or friends? Why? In your experience, did you ever have to make a choice between your friends and family? If ‘yes’ please explain your answer and why did you do so?

Both of them have contributed a lot in my life. Yes I have had to make a decision like that
and most of the times it favored my friends? Why? Because I'm young and I don't
think that clearly before deciding things like that. But it's nothing big, usually it'll be
going out with friends and missing out dinner or lunch with them and minor
stuff like that. It's not always anyway :)

Q8 : Tell us more about yourself!

Well I'm 17 this year, that should tell you that I'm still in high school and will be having
my SPM exam in a few months time. Currently having mid terms now!

I really enjoy playing the guitar, I've studied it before from 3 different schools but I quit
because I hate reading notes and I think that's its just stressful to learn music.
It's music.

I have tuition's on every weekday.

Over & Out.
