It's Ramadhan!

First of all, Selamat Berpuasa to all Muslims.

Second, I got back from a school trip in Perak a few days ago. It was a really short trip - really packed, but I managed (:

It was for two days only, actually. Asyraf followed, and I convinced Anis, Alia and Sue to come too. We went by bus and due to traffic, we didn't get to do everything that was planned on the first day.

After checking in the homestay, we did our prayers (jamak! :D) and got ready to go to Zoo Taiping for the Night Safari. It was okay. We rode that thingy which we called 'Kereta Rasanya'. We have a very logical and sensible reason okay. Pakcik Tour tu announces things like this, "Rasanya kalau tengok kat sebelah kiri ni ada badak sumbu ye." "Rasanya kalau tengok kat kanan ni ada tapir." and "Rasanya kalau tengok kat kanan ni ada babi hutan ye."

The next day, we had to get up as soon as possible. There were four homestays we had to checkout from, including the ones Pakcik Drebar Bas stayed at. After that, we had our breakfast at Zoo Taiping.

We were supposed to go to Taman Lake View, but because we were pressed for time, cikgu decided we should straight away go to Gua Tempurung.

Since it was my second time going, I bragged about how awesome it was and how wet we were going to get, what we were going to see, how cold it was, etc. But cikgu took the 1 hour 45 mins package instead of the 4 hour package, so everyone was like, "Apa kau merepek tadi, ha?"

Then, we went to Hotsprings, Sungkai. It was alright, awesome maybe. No discription available.

I bought stuff for them back home - clothes for Ammar, a magnet for Aina, a keychain for Ayah, pens for Mama and Johar and a money bank which you can draw on for Adam.

So, now I'm back in Kuala Lumpur and sleeping! Takleh makan, since puasa ):

Baibai xx

David Archuleta made me pee in my pants.

Not literally, but I felt like I did.

This is the second consert I've ever been to, and I'm glad about it. Though it makes me look lame - but who cares? The first was Justin Bieber's.

Actually instead of going to David's concert yesterday, mama wanted to buy MTV World Stage tickets for me. But we decided not to, because we got a discount for David's tickets. Instead of rm300, we bought three tickets for rm180 each. It was super worth it.



I went with mama and Asyraf. Mama didn't mind the consert, but Asyraf got all grumpy after it. After the consert, Asyraf kept on mumbling about me leaving him behind in the crowd. Ehehe, sorry bro.

We arrived at the stadium at 7pm, thinking we could buy some snacks, but when we got there, we forgot that we could bring in food. Then, we entered at around 7.45pm. Mama and Asyraf did not eat in peace, I made them rush :3

When we got in, it was quite empty, compared to Justin Bieber's. I thought everyone would act formal - you know, like, the furthest anyone could go is dance in their seats. Because when Hao Ren did the opening, nobody went crazy. Maybe it was because everyone was like me - I didn't have a clue of who he was. Another reason; because it was in a closed area.

Oh, and there's this mother who really got my attention. Apparently, she came with her tiny daughter (no offence). There were a few rows empty in front of us. So, after Hao Ren's performance, she moved in front. I didn't mind then. Suddenly, she began picking up chairs, and stacking it one on top of the other. But when the concert started, everybody was standing up - at least swaying, or else jumping and dancing while singing along. Yes, that prooved my thoery wrong - and that woman got frustrated because her kid couldn't see anything, so she asked her to stand on the chair. Unfortunately, she still couldn't see a thing. So, the mother just went on and geleng-geleng kepala until she gave up and dragged her kid back home. Poor thing.

David started the consert with Stomping On Roses at around 8.30pm. I stayed in my seat at first. Then, I was like, oh heck. I wan't to see David betul-betul lah. So I asked Asyraf to follow me in front. I managed to get until the gate separating the rm800 seats. It was worth it. Asyraf got stuck somewhere in the middle.

Before the consert, Mama said that David Archuleta was my first love. Haha. That explains why when I got to the front and saw his face, I was so stunned by his kesucian muka that I couldn't move. I'm not a hardcore fan or something, but the back of my spine really did tingled whenever he sang a note, especially when he did his alun-alun. He just sings beautiful like that. No, I'm not in love with him. Haha, gilo apo?

I couldn't take even one picture of him because I had to rely on my phone for media stuff. Asyraf did bring his video cam, but we weren't allowed to bring them in. So, all I had as live memory on my phone was recordings of him singing. Close enough, eh?

Other than Stomping On Roses, he did Something 'Bout Love, A Little Too Not Over You, Rule The World, My Kind Of Perfect, Elevator, Falling Stars, Touch My Hand, Zero Gravity, and last but not least, Crush. But the songs that really blew me away were the covers he did - Crazy, Stand By Me and Thousand Miles. Before singing Crazy, he was like, 'Shh. Thank you.' Haha, so cute :B



At school, Alia, Anis and Sue asked if I could buy them anything from the consert. So, I bought that badge-thingy for each of them and myself. I also bought a black t-shirt with David's picture on it. I wanted to buy a white on too, 'cause he looked cute on both, but mama insisted that too much money would be spent.

On Monday, there was actually an autograph session. I missed it ): One, because mama doesn't know where Farenheit 88 is. Two, mama hasn't picked up the tickets yet. And they'd only allow David to sign on the tickets. Rugi gila!

But nevermind. I had a good night, and I doubt I'll forget it as fast as I've forgotten Justin Bieber's.

Kamila is hungry. Kamila want to eat. Baibai :) xx
