3rd KE Star Studded Nite - An Invitation

3rd KE Star Studded Nite 2008

( A Red Carpet Event)

Venue: Pusakag Cafe, Donggongon

(near Public Bank)

Date: 18 October 2008 (Sat)

Time: 7 pm onwards

Fee: RM25 at the door

Dress code: Casual Smart (Glitters)

I am sure all of us had attended one of those parties of the years. These parties have themes. There are cheese and wine party where various types of cheeses and wines are served, von-v-von party (I made this one up!), dinner party with band entertainment, party by the lake and so forth.

Most of these parties have dress codes – batik fusion, retro, casual smart. You name it the list goes on and on. A red carpet party? Yup, this one is a rare event! If I were you, sure I will attend. Just to see exactly what the party is all about. How it is organised. What are the programs – are there dinner games, best dress and styles, Ms. Congeniality, artistes, etc. Is food provided? Is the drink in the house, free flow, open bill?

Last month, I attended the Sabah Bloggers Gathering. I registered a month earlier and I can’t wait the day of the event. It would be held at a hotel, so food must be nice I would reckon. I would imagine too that those people attending the event will wear something extra special since it would held in a hotel. I would expect dinner games, lucky draws and song performances as parts of the program. It would be the best place to meet and get to know more friends.

I was right, what I expected and imagined were all there. The song performances were great, the atmosphere and ambience were excellent even, food was delicious, lucky draws were superb – it was all there except of these; a) I didn’t get to mix and get to know with other attendees apart from those friends that I already knew, b) lack of activities that involve interaction, c) crowd tend to be busy with their own buddies and acquaintances, d) it wasn’t a red carpet event!

Next month, there will be a gathering, similar to the Sabah Bloggers Gathering, but a much smaller in scale. The location will be in Donggongon, 12 km from the city, and the organisers expect around 80-90 people to turn up. Attendees will be those who frequent the KE website at http://www.kadusmusic.com/portal, their friends and acquaintance and those who want to experience a red carpet event. The entrance fee is RM25 - food and party pack will be provided, drinks at your own expense.

The theme of the red carpet event is 3^rd KE Star Studded Nite. It means you are obliged to dress casual smart, and probably with fashion accessories – necklace, belt, bangles, as long as it is shining like stars or blinking even as the theme implies. Something simple, elegant, presentable and comfortable. Imagine as you walk into the room all eyes on you and you can hear the clicks of cameras all focussing on you.

See you all at the party! Au voir.

Letter from Grandma

It's been raining almost everyday the last couple of weeks. Hope this one will cheer us up.

Di sebuah pejabat pos seorang nenek ingin mengirim surat kepada cucunya. Kerana dia lupa membawa kacamata, akhirnya ia meminta tolong seorang petugas untuk membantunya.

Nenek berkata, "Bolehkan anda membantu menuliskan alamat pada sampul surat ini?".

Lalu petugas itu menuliskan alamatnya, nenek itu berkata lagi, "Bolehkan anda membantu menuliskan isi suratnya ?"

Setelah menuliskan isi surat itu dengan penuh ketulusan dan sukacita, bertanyalah petugas itu kepada nenek .. "Apa lagi yang boleh saya bantu, Nek?"

Kemudian nenek berkata, "Tolong tambahkan di bawah isi surat ini ..

Travelling - Adventure Of A Life Time

I dare to say this. I have been to many places, both locally and nationally, sometimes over the sea. It is timely that I blog about these places. One day it would be fun to read them again. Back to memory lane kinna thing.

In the next coming months I will be visiting many places of interest around Ranau and the East Coast. It is going to be a tiring journey. Resorts, small scale accommodation providers, waterfalls, river cruises, jungle trekking, parks, rest areas, island and beaches, home stay, etc. There are also new and ‘potential’ places of interest i.e. tourism assets/products to be visited and assessed. Chasing waterfalls and trekking hills will be most challenging. Going through the jungle where leeches and mosquitoes are aplenty in addition to the harsh climatic conditions will be challenging too.

Apart from visiting all these places, I will also attend a few events taking place in these parts of Sabah. The Death March Ceremony in Kundasang War Memorial and the 22^nd TM International Climbathon, for example.

From now on I will categories these places I visited as follows.

Weekend Gate Away – Places I visit over the weekend, mostly with friends and families.

Jalan-Jalan Cari Makan – Places I visit with food being the main agenda.

Cuti Cuti Sabah – Visit to places of interest in Sabah covering leisure and work.

Holiday Destination – Visit to places of interest where I can relax and not doing work.

So, happy travelling kaka, kavagu dau laa!
