Post MSF Blur(not Blues)

Have been a blur sotong for the past few days(post MSF syndrome).

1. Forgot where I put my pen, forgot to charge my batteries, forgot how to write scripts & which table to extract datas from and

2. The ultimate blur-ness : (the sign on a bus' door)

BERKHEMAHLAH DI JALAN RAYA. SELAMATKAN NYAWA

Camp on the road to save lives ?

Yup! It's translated as CAMP ON THE ROAD. SAVE LIVES.

My brain captured it that way for more than 10 minutes. And just a few a seconds after I rang the bell to get off the bus, it appeared clearly as

BERHEMAHLAH DI JALAN RAYA which means, BE COURTEOUS ON THE ROAD

What difference a K makes .

Luckily I don't drive. If not, I'll have to put this sign on the car:

BEWARE! BLUR SOTONG DRIVING *_*

Malaysian Salsa Festival

Too lazy to type so many things. For now, it'll be pictures posting time only.

My first MSF(I missed last year's).

We departed from Sentral like 40 minutes after the scheduled time(talk about Malaysian Rubber Time)!!!

The interesting part is where our buses were escorted by the polices from Bidor to the hotel itself. Felt like VIP leh.

We made a smart choice for this festival(learned our lessons well from the previous SISF).

Less workshops & more rests(zZZZz) to make sure we have enough energy for the dancing later.

Not that we ended up dancing the nights away. My roomie & I ended up chatting till 4am instead.

Took a few workshops(3 per day ain't that bad): musicality-on1 & on2(basic only la), sexy movement(where the guy have to give the girl a sorta lap dance), Brazilian Samba, Turn pattern/s & spinning technique.

Shimmy Steven had a workshop of his own during dinner(where we feed ourselves & fattened those mosquitos at the same time) - mosquito bachata & mosquito shimmy(gotta clarify with him again).

CL, AL & moi even accomplished the mosquito shines. Caution, this move can only be perfected while having dinner outdoor, preferably near a lot of trees & with minimal lightings.

And managed to hop into a reggae-ton workshop by the pool too. Darn good exercise for the abd & shoulders.

Didn't take photos on the 1st day at Lumut, but took a lot(well, not as many as Uncle James - almost 2000 woh he said) on the 2nd & last day.

Credits goes to these suddenly-ter-appointed photographers: Jason, Roger, Gina, Chiow Er, DJ Othman, Chin Lai & Sean. Hope I didn't missed out anyone's name. If yes, please let me know yeah!

Pre MSF

36 hours(and counting) to Lumut, the place where MSF is to be held.

I missed the 1st MSF and went for SISF instead last year.

The itinerary earlier: HE's students(or uh-hmm ex-student) who booked the MSF pass via HE is to board the bus at TTDI on the Thursday morning. 9.30am check in luggage? I gotta get out of the house like at 7.30am ?

But was later informed to rendezvous at KL Sentral around 9am yesterday. Ish!! Say bye bye to me bed so early to lepak at Sentral ar? Ok lor, had to follow instruction mah. At least, it'll be more convenient for me to go to Sentral instead of TTDI.

Have been working overtime most of the weeks up till today(and maybe tomorrow too) so that I can say adios(even if its only for 3 workdays) to my work-basket and work-station in peace. Hope it won't be over flow with cases when I start work after MSF.

Caught a glimpse of the workshops schedule yesterday and the first one would be musicality . Can't wait leh(start wishing that I'm on the way to Lumut already).

Wonder will it be windy and maybe drizzle a bit at Lumut ? Sure would love the cool breeze and rain(not the heavy kind) like what I've been experiencing for the past 2 days during and after lunch break. Such a delightful and fuzzy feeling(hard to describe lar, more or less like this: )

So many workshops and the venue being near a beach, should I or should I not bring my camera along(even if its only to capture some rain pictures)? I'll decide tomorrow lar.
