I first saw Pop Shuvit perform live back in High School (a kampung school on top of a hill in Puchong) when they performed for my Leo club's IU day...this was way before they have won any competitions etc...and they have definitely come a LOOOONGGG way...
Pop Shuvit is a Malaysian independent rap-rock band. Comprising Moots! (vocals), JD (guitar), AJ (bass), Rudy (drums) and Uno (turntables), the band who got its name from a skateboarding trick of almost the same name began making waves in the local music scene in late 2001 and since then, has had 4 successful releases under their belt and gained a sizable fanbase in Asia notably in Malaysia, Japan, Thailand and Singapore. Known for their adrenaline-packed live shows and eclectic blend of hip hop and rock, Pop Shuvit are being touted as Asia’s leading Hip Hop Rock band.


SHAWN LEE BEATBOX

First saw Shawn Lee performed at City Harvest Church when I tagged along an ex-colleague of mine to mass (which turned out to be a rock concert :-S). Here's some information of Shawn (stolen from his FB Fanpage), a talented beatboxer who is much younger (and richer T__T) than me....

Shawn Lee - Born in 1991. Beatboxing is Shawn's passion. He also represented Malaysia For the Beatbox Battle World Championships and was the Best 16 in the competition and he was the youngest in the Best 16.

Not forgetting, This event is also hosting by the oh-so-sexay

Ho ho ho! Merry Christmas!

Merry Xmas everyone!!! Tis the season to be jolly and gain weight :-P....almost the end of the year 2011 already...without fail, around this time, I would always become nostalgic and reminiscence what has happened throughout the year so that I can improve and plan my next year's resolutions :-D

Let's leave all the sappy nonsense for my New Year's post ok? since it's the day to feel happy and jolly!!! here's some of my favourite Xmas tunes to share with you all :-D

My cousins in Auckland came back from school singing this NASTY X'MAS song...really LAUGH DIE ME!!! Enjoy XD

Grandma got run over by a reindeer Walking home from our house Christmas eve. You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

She'd been drinkin' too much egg nog, And we'd begged her not to go. But she'd left her medication, So she stumbled out the door into the snow.

When they found her Christmas mornin', At the scene of the attack. There were hoof prints on her forehead, And incriminatin' Claus marks on her back.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve. You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

Now were all so proud of Grandpa, He's been takin' this so well. See him in there watchin' football, Drinkin' beer and playin' cards with cousin Belle. 
 
It's not Christmas without Grandma. All the family's dressed in black. And we just can't help but wonder: Should we open up her gifts or send them back?

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walkin' home from our house Christmas eve. You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe.

Now the goose is on the table And the pudding made of fig. And a blue and silver candle, That would just have matched the hair in Grandma's wig.

I've warned all my friends and neighbours. " Better watch out for yourselves." They should never give a license, To a man who drives a sleigh and plays with elves.

Grandma got run over by a reindeer, Walkin' home from our house, Christmas eve. You can say there's no such thing as Santa, But as for me and Grandpa, we believe

Another of my favourite...yet the irony of the song to sing it this year...haha! oh wells :-)
"Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recognize me?
Well
It's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
(whispered) Merry Christmas,
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you"
and meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again"
I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
Don't want a doll, no dinky Tinker Toy
I want a hippopotamus to play with and enjoy

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
I don't think Santa Claus will mind, do you?
He won't have to use our dirty chimney flue
Just bring him through the front door, that's the easy thing to do

I can see me now on Christmas morning, creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles, no rhinoceroses
I only like hippopotamuses
And hippopotamuses like me too

Mom says the hippo would eat me up, but then
Teacher says a hippo is a vegetarian

There's lots of room for him in our two-car garage
I'd feed him there and wash him there and give him his massage
I can see me now on Christmas morning, creeping down the stairs
Oh what joy and what surprise when I open up my eyes
To see a hippo hero standing there

I want a hippopotamus for Christmas
Only a hippopotamus will do
No crocodiles or rhinoceroseses
I only like hippopotamuseses
And hippopotamuses like me too!

 I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
Well, she didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peek
She though that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep
Then I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
What a laugh it would have been
If Daddy had walked in
And saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night


I saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus
Underneath the mistletoe last night
Well, she didn't see me creep
Down the stairs to have a peek
She though that I was tucked up in my bedroom fast asleep
But I know I saw Mommy tickle Santa Claus
Underneath his beard so snowy white
What a laugh it would have been
If Daddy had walked in
And saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
And saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night (One more time!)
And saw Mommy kissing Santa Claus last night
On the Lips!

New Zealand: November 2011 Updates

Hello All!!! I know it's already mid-December and my updates are sooo long due....but what to do, busy person with a busy AND EXCITING life :-D

What have I been up to so far?

1. Moved House (More like my uncle moved house and I followed along)
2. Now a Serial Public Transport User (which i terribly hate!!!)
3. Studying like crazy for my final semester before I FINALLY GRADUATE :-D
4. Partied and Dance like there's No Tomorrow
I'm somewhat of a late bloomer I guess :-P Only started partying after living in New Zealand for 5 months :-P Oh wells, might as well make up for lost time I guess....

Absolutely love the NON SMOKING clubs here in Auckland...even though I guess it can never beat the vibrancy and familiarity of Zouk in Kuala Lumpur. At least, people here don't get cigarette burns by assholes who smoke in clubs....I know many of my friends smoke in the clubs....But I'll still call them ASSHOLES for ruining their life :-D #ngoemdiu

The Facebook trend right now is the post "Words of Wisdom" wall pictures and so far, I really like this!!! :-D

Karma....something that I really believe in and have seen it happening to the people around me, often, I would like to run up to them and point at their faces and go

"DAI LEI SEI!!!" translation "Serves You Right".

But then again, I'd rather play safe since Karma might turn around and attack me instead @__@"

Until today, other than my fast temper (from my Aries ascendant), One of my biggest obstacle/flaw is NOT being able to forgive someone....

Now and then you'll hear people say "Forgive and Forget"...I don't think I'll be able to ever Forget a betrayal unless I suddenly start suffering from amnesia....so what for forgive???

90% of the people that has betrayed me (I keep a mental list) has seek forgiveness and some even seek forgiveness profusely.....But then again, would I trust them again? Nope. Never. Yadda.

The other 10% REALISES their mistakes and have yet to apologise yet talk to me as if we are so "close"/ji mui/heng dai......:-) oh wells, I play the game really well my dear. Keep your friends close and keep your enemies closer :-)

But at the end of the day, Forgiveness and FORGETTING how a person has wronged you is a FANTASTIC trait to have. As the saying goes "holding a grudge is like letting someone live rent free in your mind" or "holding a grudge is like drinking poison and hoping that your enemies will die"....something like that la...lol!

It'll probably take me another 20-30 years of soul searching, meditating, etc....to be able to completely forgive someone....but at least, I would like to change and am taking baby steps :-) though it is EXTREMELY AMUSING to watch those idiots suffer from their Karma I must say...MUAHAHAHAH!!!

Sometimes I wonder......

What would have happened if I were to have stayed in Malaysia? boredom perhaps? stuck in a job I don't love? Never to learn how true my friends were?

Life is always a journey and I'm learning more and more each day :-)

Back to my post, November was the month after all the Rugby World Cup 2011 hoo-haa and New Zealand won!!! If you don't know already...how shallow can you be???

After 5 whole months of working back to back 3 JOBS, I decided to finally let my hair down and party! :-D All work and No play makes Sarah a dull girl. Hence, after working all day, I shall party all night :-D












After working for soooo many years, I've forgotten how it's like to be young and just have fun.....years of working did indeed made me a VERY mature person in the working environment but I've became such an uptight, too serious "anak dara tua" a.k.a old maid......thank god I made such new wonderful and GORGEOUS girlfriends here who literally saved me :-) I always have fate with beautiful, smart and talented women, too bad I'm not a man :-P

Here's some bloopers of me when I was tipsy....lol....it's interesting to watch how people act when they are drunk/tipsy....I just found out my tipsy pesona (at 23 3/4 years old...told you I'm a good girl :-p).....I'M IN MY OWN WORLD and CAN'T FREAKING STOP SINGING WHEN I'M TIPSY!!!! How typically Sarah May Low :-P













EPIC-NESS OF DEM ALL!!!! HAHAHAHAHAH!!!!







 




Waiwera Hot Springs!!!

I absolutely love this place!!! sadly only found out about this god-sent paradise after sooo longggg!!!










Had fish and Chips by the beach :-) <3





 
Dinner with friends!!! The typical life of an overseas student...house parties and more house parties!!!
If I did not tell you all already, the people I hang out here are CHEFS and CULINARY students!!!!!!

and my WORST trait is cooking T__T..... I'm only damn good at eating coz I am "Tam Chiak" a.k.a GLUTTON!!! T__T
French Chef Simon choosing Mussels for dinner :-D

Chef Mariska cooking her "special" mash potato


Mussels: Help me! Help me!...my chef friends are sooo damn hardworking...cleaned each and every shell one by one....so dedicated to feeding me :-P

Chefs in action with another chef Verdi behind who do not need to do anything since it's his birthday!!!

Handmade cakes...wrapped in plastic....
My friend's 1st Black forest cake attempt...better than mine la...lol....

IT WAS OMFG-AMAZING!!!! Had 3 servings!!!


I really admire people who can cook damn well....but at the same time I hate them coz they make me feel damn self-conscious T__T.....

I asked all of my Chef guy friends "Would you marry a girl who cannot cook?" (even if they themselves can cook damn well)

all of them answered "NO!"

T__T FML.....

Then I rephrased by question and asked them again "Would you marry a girl who cannot cook but is damn good in bed?"

All of them unanimously (and pervertedly) answered "YES!!! ABSOLUTELY!!!"

=__=" Boys will always be boys...........

Thank god I'll be putting my gymnastics and ballet experience into good use....lol *jokes* mummy don't kill me...I'm just joking :-P but then again, you always told me you wanted LOTS of grandchildren right? wakakakakak!!!

Also thank god, I'll capable enough to employ a personal chef in the future :-P


Something told me it was over
when I saw you and her talking,
Something deep down in my soul said, ´Cry Girl´,

when I saw you and that girl, walking out.
I would rather, I would rather go blind boy,
Than to see you, walk away from me child, and all.
Ooooo So you see, I love you so much
That I don't want to watch you leave me baby,
Most of all, I just don't, I just don't want to be free no

I was just, I was just, I was just sitting here thinking
Of your kisses and your warm embrace, yeah,

When the reflection in the glass that I held to my lips now baby,
Revealed the tears that was on my face, yeah.
And baby, baby, I would rather be blind boy
Than to see you walk away, see you walk away from me, yeah
Baby, baby, baby, I'd rather be blind now
