Hottest Sentimental Rock Concert

Do song titles like "25 Minutes", "Sleeping Child", "Wild Women" and "Paint My Love" sound familiar to you? Yes, they are all songs from the Scandinavian group - Michael Learns To Rock, and NO, they don't have a member named Michael.
I was lucky enough to be a member of the audience that attended their concert at Star Arena, Genting yesterday. It was an experience of a life time, even though I didn't attended a lot of concert, but this is one of the best concert that I've been to. There wasn't any so called "Waiting" time, even though we still have to wait for another 15mins after reaching 8pm due to there's still a lot's of audiences coming into the arena. but once all the audience had enter, the show starts. I must say that they do a great job on setting the song list, mixing up new songs with the old ones, bring up the atmosphere with the songs that familiar by us and in the mean time introducing the new songs from their newest album. The whole concert started to heat up with the very 1st song "How Many Hours" is played, every audience starts singing the chorus following the lead singer, Jascha. After that, whenever a famous song is played, all the audience started to sing along, some of the time, they even stopped and let the audience sings. It felt really cool when listening nearly 1k of people singing songs like "Sleeping Child", "That's Why(You Go Away)" and etc etc. The show stopped a while after nearly an hour, all the members of the group went back stage except Jascha, and he performed 2 song by himself. The concert ends around 9.50pm, but all the audience stay where they are. We can hear some people shouting encore and without any waiting (we only wait for around 2~3mins.) , there they are and bring the atmosphere to another high with the song "Paint My Love".
The concert ends at 10.15pm, I must said that I had sing the most song of my life within that 2 hours, didn't regret to came all the way to Genting at all (even risking myself that I might not able to get back to Cyberjaya in time or can't get a room). A concert that can be describe as the hottest sentimental rock concert, well, at least for me.

Some people never learn to be thankful

Drop by at my normal dinner place yesterday night around 10pm, auntie is busy as always, but still she puts down all her work and chat with me. She told me that yesterday around dinner time came a indonesian LK* University Collage student causing trouble.
He jumped the Q and wanna took the dishes by himself (normally aunties will take for us), so auntie ask him to Q-up and wait for his turn, then he started to behave like a barbarian scolding auntie with why she doesn't allow him to take his own food, like other shop does, saying that he is an academic student and auntie should let him take his dishes. (WTF~! I don't care whether you're master or a doctor, everybody having dinner there are undergraduate from your collage or MMU too~! What makes you so different from other people??!! If people Q-up and wait for their turn, so do you~!) With this kinda attitude, auntie scold him back, (who else won't?? right?) And he started to scold auntie with all the dirty words that you can think of and banging on the door. Later in the night, after I've came back from auntie place, I received a YM forward msg, asking people to boycott auntie.
All I can say is that some people never learn to be thankful for the people that giving us so many convinient. Auntie's shop actually open until 2am in the morning while the other shop at Cyberia are all close up around 11pm, letting us go there to buy foods, drinks, snacks and top-up, somemore at exam week, they extend their business hour to 3 or 4 in the morning, who else will do that at a place like Cyberia?? Actually she doesn't have to do that at all, not that she wanna make more money or what, she knows what we student wants, so, she opens until 2 in the morning to provide us a place to get our snacks at that kinda hour. I've personally know auntie for 3 years, you can say that she is one of the best shop owner at Cyberia, she tries to fulfil every request that she receives and tries to make all of us have our tummy full. So, students of MMU and LKW, please know to be thankful.
