So after 2 months of waiting, the home theatre system was done repairing. My parents were greeted by this message. My dad almost got choked while reading it.

Harimau Malaya confused with my iPhone case
I had the chance to attend the meet and greet session with the Malaysian football team aka Harimau Malaya thanks to Nike Malaysia. The event was held in-conjunction with the team’s effort of winning the recent AFF Suzuki Cup 2010 where they were against Indonesia in the 2 legged finals. As i have written in my previous entry, it was one of those moments where the whole country stood still and cheered for Harimau Malaya. Adrian followed me as he is an ardent fan of Malaysian football, where else i follow updates off and on whenever i read the papers. Before coming for the event, Adrian asked what i was wearing cause initial plans were i wore my Man Utd jersey and he wore his Liverpool as that night we planned to watch the FA Cup match anyway. Fortunately, i told him i am wearing a normal Nike jersey and he ended up wearing Barcelona’s jersey. Why did i say fortunately? This being a Nike event, it’s obvious that the attendees should at least refrain from wearing competitors outfit, hahaha. In fact they did announce that anyone with Adidas shirt won’t be allowed for the meet and greet session. Nike

2011 starts off with a bang, literally
The final week of 2010 was probably one of the best final weeks of the year i had so far. Started off with the AFF Suzuki Cup where Malaysia met Indonesia in the finals. Putting the stupid laser beams aside, i can easily say it was the one time where everyone in Malaysia was one, united. No race, no religion but Malaysian instead. It even came to a point when i was packing food and the fella manning the store asked … “You are Malaysian?” I was like in a state of shock cause finally, finally someone asked the right question and not the usual, what are you? what race, bla bla bla. This fella is actually an ardent fan of the Malaysian football team and he was giving extra chicken to his fellow countrymen. HAhahaha nice gesture. My room mate’s cousin was getting married and i was invited to witness and also photograph the ceremony as i haven’t been to a Punjabi wedding before. Honestly speaking, it was damn nice and colourful! The Punjabi community are very closely knitted and i had the chance to see that first hand. What left me in awe was how close were they

Sony Music Facebook Page
I am sure many of you here, if not all are fans of certain music out there. Personally i don’t have a favourite genre in particular. Since music is a universal language, i listen to many different languages. English, Malay, Chinese, Indian songs, just to name a few. Lyrics have their value if you understand well in the language but unfortunately my proficiency in both my mother and father tongue is dreadful. So the best i could do is appreciate the tune, lol In this generation, every information is pushed out to users like me and you via the internet and to be more precise, social media networks like Facebook and Twitter. Sony Music Malaysia joined the bandwagon by having their very own Facebook Page. There’s definitely perks of being a fan of their page. Off and on Sony Music Malaysia gives out freebies like CDs, notepads, any sort of merchandise. The most recent one where people were going gaga (no not like lady gaga) but i mean go crazy were the Glee giveaways. There are more to come in the future i am sure, so stay in touch with Sony Music Malaysia by liking their group One of my

It’s easy to register as a voter!
I finally reached the legal age to be a voter and to be a responsible citizen, i registered myself at a nearby post office. Surprisingly, it took me less than a minute. Probably the longest part of the whole process was waiting for your turn. I dragged my brother along, just to show him what i was suppose to do. We walked to the post office near Sunshine Square. All that was required was my Identification Card (IC). Then i was asked a rather confusing quetion: Man@counter: “Kamu ini apa?” (What are you?) Man@counter: “Chrisitian?” Me: “Oh agama?” (Oh religion?) Me: Hindu Paper work doesn’t have the option of mix or chindian, etc. Anyway that doesn’t really matter. The guy behind the counter then printed out a slip for me to check my details and asked for my signature. THAT’S IT! I am finally a voter! The next elections will be in the year 2012, unless you know ler something crops up in my area. I am only saying that cause there’s so many by-elections recently that you just wouldn’t know what would happen next. So for those who have reached the age of 21, go and register! It’s easy
Sepang F1 Circuit, Malaysia
The past few years i have been fortunate enough to find myself among the fans in the grandstand and last year, i was invited by Bernard. In 2009, Jenson Button and Brawn GP were making all the headlines in F1. Already being ditched by Honda before the 2009 season even started, no one, no one expected them to be in the position that they were at by the end of the season. The Sepang Circuit notoriously known for it’s crazy weather change lived up to it’s nickname as the Hottest and Wettest F1 race amongst the circuit. You could have a blazing hot sun at the beginning of the race and a heavy downpour to end the race in style. Having the race in the month of April which is the month where the wind changes around South East Asia, heavy downpour are very unpredictable, thus playing an important part in the race in terms of tires being used. I could remember how Ferrari were stuck with 2 cars in the pits years ago to change to wet tires but Schuey eventually won the race.
Job as Cabin Crew/Flight Attendant/Stewardess for MAS
Update 11.57am 19/03/10: Technical glitch for the past 2 hours which made it hard to access my site. Thank you for those who emailed Update: 5.14pm 29/06/10 The latest updates will be posted at the bottom There has been a spike in my site especially with searches on MAS cabin crew interviews in the past 2 weeks. I have replied mails and messages regarding the questions being asked. But for the benefit of future visitors to this site, i would post up a few more information on top of what i have written last year regarding “What Does It Take to Become a MAS Air Stewardess“. I would use the most recent comment by Michael Sibinal who was asking on behalf of his daughter, as a guide to those who seek similar answers. a) Can she apply through this website (http://satkuru.com/…)?
Arsenal, Chelsea fan jeered at during Man Utd Asia Tour 2009
This could very well be the main highlight for the whole year besides backpacking to Cambodia. Not only was i able to watch Man United live but was able to watch them in action twice ! This only happened because of the recent bombing in Jakarta at the hotel that the team would be staying during their stay there. Though Australia offered 1 million pounds for them to play down under but Sir Alex declined and ended up playing in Malaysia twice. The crowd for the 2nd game wasn’t as much as the first game but nevertheless i still had fun watching with a bunch of crazy people.
Urbanscapes – H1N1 ?
Last week Angeline called me up to say that she got herself a pair of tickets to Urbanscapes and would be coming down to KL for it. I on the other hand reluctantly said that i wouldn’t want her to come down. With the looming cases of H1N1 cases in KL, it would be wise to stay away from crowded areas especially with the younger demographic. Debra was telling me how her friends got infected and asked if i will be attending. I told her the same reasons as above and she agreed. That’s why she sent her sister instead As for Angeline, she still came to KL BUT had the impression that Urbanscapes was on Sunday. … no i didn’t remind her nor did i mention about it. She finally realized it on her own when she re-read the mail, ROFL. I was always curious about what Urbanscapes was about but i guess i have to wait for next year. Speaking of H1N1 @ Urbanscapes … … a friend forwarded this to me. So please do the needy if you do have any of the symptoms of H1N1.
