BENNY BENASSI TO ROCK MALAYSIA’S FIRST FULLY-UV THEMED ROOFTOP CARPARK PARTY
Internationally acclaimed Benny Benassi who spun dance floors to the ground with sensational dance hit Satisfaction will be pumping up the crowd at Malaysia’s first fully-themed UV dance party.

It was hitting 2 bird with 1 stone, Sui Lin’s having her belated birthday bash at Velvet while Hayden, was in Kuala Lumpur on a 26 hours transit from India back to Melbourne.
I didn’t take many pictures on that night. This collage is taken from winkris’s website 😀 With some alteration 😀
The last time I went to a rave was probably on New Years Eve. It’s been a while. I must thank MyPartners Communications (especially Xaviera & Kimberly) for providing us with the free tickets, if it’s not for them, this awesome night wouldn’t happen for me.
There were probably more than 7000 people who attended this event as pre sale tickets amounting to 4000 were sold out few days before the event. Those who didn’t managed to secure pre sale tickets had to come early to line up. And those who came late without tickets were barred from entering the KL Tower compound. Just at the entrance, lies one huge banner saying. “Tickets sold out!”
Last Monday, I received a call from Nandakumar, former legal aid mate.
N: Yooo brother, how are you? Sorry, haven’t had the time to talk to you.
Me: Good good, how are you??
N: good too! anyway, I got news for you…
Me: Wait, you’re getting married ??
N: wow! Who did you hear it from??
Me: No la, I just guessed.. haha congrats man.
N: I got another shocking news for you..
Me: LET ME GUESS! YOU GOT A BABY!!
N: er.. no la brother..my wedding is this WEDNESDAY!!!
Me: /(*O*)!!!
Finally, Nandakumar’s parent long awaited day has finally come. Nanda’s family found him a nice lady to be his life companion. It was an arranged marriage.
The ceremony was held at one temple at Brickfields. I’ve never been to an Indian wedding as such I was pretty lost when I got there. Initially, I thought it was going to be held inside the temple, but instead, it was in a hall next to the temple.
4000 pre sale tickets are all gone!

[Edit:
Below is the 1st clue for the Speedzone Tour 2007 contest!
Find this word on Sunday Star, 4 March 2007….
* Flip to Page S60.
* Nails come to mind.
* 3rd Column, 2nd line.
* The word is just before full stop.
First and foremost, I must congratulate wen dee & bimbobum.
Love is in the air!
but mine’s down the drain.. GG
Also, I must congratulate Jin Han & Chia on their recent marriage. Finally, one of our brothers has tied the knot.
In Chinese tradition, prior to the wedding dinner, the groom has to head to the bride’s home to ‘collect’ his bride. In Cantonese, this is called ‘chip san leong’.
The groom will appoint a few guys (heng tai – brother in Cantonese) to accompany him to the bride’s house. The bride, on the other hand, will appoint a few evil girls (chi mui – sister in Chinese) to protect the bride from the groom and the heng tai. The evil chi mui will plot all sorts of evil task to make the groom and heng tai suffer before the groom can get his bride.
Prior to heading to ‘chip san leong’
Around 20 of us headed to Kota Damansara to ‘chip san leong’. Of course, the chi mui didn’t make it easy for us.
Jin Han & the evil chi mui
The hengtai – our required attire was white shirt with tie and black slacks.
The chi mui stood by the front door with the first task, we have to pass a piece of seaweed through our lips. The heng tai had to kiss each other on the lips to pass the seaweed. After going through 10 or more lips, Kiang ate the seaweed. Yummy.
Things we do for a brother.
Upon completing the first task, the door was open and we were faced with more tasks which includes eating wasabi biscuit, frozen oranges and also singing while doing 50 sit ups. BanTong and Wai Keong had the honour of performing the sit ups. While doing the sit ups, Wai Keong sang a birthday song to Jin Han.
Ping’s reaction after eating wasabi crackers
Upon completing the given tasks, we move upstairs where Jin Han’s wife is. The final tasks were relatively easy. Jin Han had to answer few questions and failing to answer one question would amount to 10 push ups.
While singing, Foo Tuck started pushing the door and in no time, Jin Han rushed in to the room to find his bride, in a white wedding gown, sitting by the bed with her back facing him. He continued singing, walked toward to his wife and lifted her veil. At that moment, a man has found his other half.
As promised, information about Speedzone Tour 2007.
Come feel the heat for yourself on 7 April 2006 at the Tower Terrace of KL Tower, as three international DJ’s spin off the party of the season. Channel V’s DJ Joey G will get the party started, first timer to the Malaysian club scene, Dimas Carbajo, known better as D-Formation, takes the deck next.
One of the world’s most respected, highly sought after and certainly most popular DJ’s, D-Formation brings his unmistakeable Spanish-inspired house rhythms to Malaysian clubbers.
Tech trance fans are in for a treat, as Marco V’s easily recognisable and uplifting brand of music is set to prep the crowd for the magic of the next DJ – the unmistakable Yoji Biomehanika.
Undoubtedly the fastest rising DJ today, Yoji is also in Malaysia for the very first time and is bound to keep clubbers in and having fun right up till closing time. Fans of Speedzone will also recognise the artistic touches of 4YOUREYE, back to tease partygoers with their crowd-pumping visuals.
My favourite DJs for this event are no other than Marco V and Yoji Biooommeeehaanikkkaaaaaaa!!
Never heard of them? Check out their videos below (which I found on youtube.com):
YOOJJJIIIIIIIIIII ZOMGGG

It was an excellent night. Sathya, Tay, Sow, ivN Melvin, Sharon Dilirius, Gena the Filipino chick and I were drinking all night long.
We had one table by the side of the dancefloor. Sow got a little bit bored and told ivN,
“Tell me which chick is cute!”.
ivN: neh!! that one over there. (randomly pointing towards the crowd)
Sow then went over one girl and mumbled something to the girl. The girl then came over to introduce herself. Her name is Valerie.
Sow, ivN and I introduced ourselves. When it came to my turn to introduce myself, the girl stepped forward, smiled widely and said, “Are you Ivan???”
Me: No! Ivan is next to me..
She then sprung towards ivN.
I walked off thereafter. I asked Sow how he managed to get the girl over.
Sow: I told Valerie, “Hey! My friend ivN thinks you’re cute!!”.
O____O|||
I bumped into another lawyer, who is also my opponent in a case which I’m involved in. Hot girl, I saw one uncle with bodyguards hitting on her. Nevertheless, I went to say hi.
Me: Hi hi! How are you?
M: Good! How about you?
Me: Good! Oh, I just served you 2 applications on Friday! It’s fixed for hearing on Tuesday!
M: O______________________________________O||||
