Ever imagine if those guys come out from you tinny little laptop screen, standing right in front on you, in person, where you can actually talk to them, listen to their singing, where you can poke them & say: hey, you guys are real, in flash, cool~ XD Sounds awesome right?! Well just the other night ACER had actually made it an once-in-a-lifetime dream came true experience for YTF (Youtube Fans) Malaysia by bringing 3 of the amazing F.Y.I (Favorite Youtube Icons) JR Aquino the funny and distinctive, Victor Kim the cool and handsome & Andrew Garcia the playful and cute Live on Stage in Kuala Lumpur. A marvellous night where true beauty of music flow within the air.

The show hosted by Fly FM DJ Hafiz started with dance performance by young Malaysia dance crew Katoon Network & subsequently songs from Malaysia Music Band Once Upon A Time There Was A Sausage Name BOB. Followed by appearance of FYI in different combination, generating a variety of chemistry with graceful sparks radiating across the hall, melodious, joyful, unique & to each its own. :D

It was an amazing showcase as all three of them had actually choose to put on an acoustic-style performance, Andrew & JR with a taylor guitar played by them self, Victor with an ukulele, that’s all, single instrument with nothing more, which turn out to be a demonstration of perfect vocal capabilities. Surprisingly they are equally great, hard to tell which is better. b^__^d

One of my favourite moment, the special appearance of Malaysia Chinese singer Tedd Chan (曾國琿) with his latest hit song 留给这世上我最爱的人 + duet of Bruno Mars – Just The Way You Are with JR Aquino.

By the time this entry  was posted, as I’m still drenched in those euphonious music and hilarious moments of FYI on stage in KL, these great people had already on their way to Singapore for their next performance. Well I guess all good things come to an end, all I would like to say is that Victor, Andrew & JR, you guys are awesome & I really hope to see you guys back in Malaysia soon. Until then, cheers to F.Y.I.!!

Astro’s Fear Factor House Fearless Challenge

“What your biggest fear is and how it affects your life?”

 

What doesn't kill you makes you stronger, that’s what Kelly Clarkson said, however the truth is, sometimes the scariest things isn’t those which kill you right on the spot, but things which not so much as to kill you, yet not so little as to let you live.

 

I’m an adventurous man, I love X-game and adventure sports, pursuit of thrill and extreme excitement is what I’m always looking forward to. However there is one thing I’m afraid of, the fear of LOSING, that’s the biggest fear of my life. Not the win-lose circumstances in a competition or games, but to lose someone to death or any other unexpected way, LOSING a LOVERS, FRIENDS, SOMEONE that MEANS SO MUCH to you, the person you would take a bullet for them.

 

Remember those superhero movies, as though a hero can be, they fall, making wrong call at the vary moment when their loved one is in jeopardy. The fear of losing a lover, the impact and magnitude of the incidence brings is so extreme to handle even for superheros. Though I might be way too far to be in their shoes, but my intensity of fear for losing love ones in life is of the same.

 

Someone once said:

 

“I do fear death. I fear dying in here, while my city burns, and there's no one there to save it.”

 

That’s just about how I fear of losing those I care & love..I do not fear death, but I fear dying here, while my love ones are in jeopardy, and there’s no one there to save them.

 

Fear doesn’t make a person weak, well at least not me. It actually motivate me to always be prepared, work harder, strive towards excellent, to be excel physically & mentally, to be strong enough and good enough to protect my love ones, to be able to be there for them when needed. Ok I might be a bit exaggerate but hey, who knows what life have to offer, it’s always better to be prepared right. :)   

Coming Back to the show, in the brand new seasons of Astro’s Fear Factor Malaysia (Fear Factor Selebriti Malaysia brought to you on Astro Ria 104 Dec 2012) hosting by Aaron Aziz, our lovely nation celebrities such as Hafizul Kamal, Hefny Sahad, Dazrin Kamarudin, Didie Alias, Isham, Ezlynn, Nik Michael, Fairul, Elfira Loy, Iz OIAM, Yassin etc will be fighting hard throughout the challenges, facing the fear of their life! Stay tune to see them in action!

My support goes to Hafizul & Henfy as they are fit and smart, plus superb confident in winning the challenge, with this winning attitude they are already halfway through winning.  :P

Also Astro is throwing out the Fear Factor Fearless Challenge in conjunction with the show! So are your bold enough to push your fears to their limits?!

“Fear Factor House – Is your chance to experience Fear Factor live!”

Luna Bar @ Pacific Regency Hotel

Situated at the top of Pacific Regency Hotel (34th floor), knowing as one of the best rooftop bars in KL, there is no doubt that Luna possess some spectacular view (especially at the upper deck of Luna) of KL city, fantastic surroundings with KL tower shining on the right & Petronas Twin Tower on left. The view and interior are absolutely stunning and breath-taking especially for first timer who never been to a rooftop bar before, a great choice of place for chill out at night.

I was there the other night chilling with friends, we ordered some of their signature drinks but we never taste the food as most of the review doesn't really give credit to it. :P

Entrance to Cristallo, the indoor area.

Pretty deco @ the entrance.

Blue Hawaii.

So for the drink it actually taste kinda normal, with such a nice presentable appearance I was expecting something special but nope, just pure vodka+rum with slight coconut which doesn't really blend well. Anyway there are review saying that they do have decent pizza so if you feel like ordering some dish, you might wanna give it a try..

Bar at the pool side.

Some awesome view from the upper deck.

To wrap it up, if you are looking for great night view of KL city or some cool place to hangout with friends, yes go for Luna. This rooftop bar which won the Best Night Spot Award in the Hospitality Asia Platinum Awards (HAPA), Regional Series 2008-2010, beating competitors from Thailand, Singapore and Indonesia will not let you down, however if you are a person who is very particular about food, services and demand a high quality dining experience, you might wanna think twice as there are plenty of options around KLCC.
