The Actual Space

Remember my entry on 'A space of my dream'? Actually, what I meant is the Studios..It's our newly opened space , my husband like to call it Studios, tapi it is more like a seminar room la..Bole la lebih kurang maksudnya I have my own space that I can create/ organize anything I want.

The new company , FIFTYone Training & Consultancy Sdn Bhd will be focused on education. Any kind of education-based events / agenda, be it Workshops, Trainings, Seminars, Forum / Talk Show. We are now extremely doing marketing to Corporate and Independent Organization on training and consultancy. Cakap je nak training ape, semua kitorg bole aturkan.

We got a place at Kota Damansara, where we transformed it into a hall-like room. It is mainly to cater the newly opened business. Max capacity is 130 pax. ( At first we thought it can fit 200 people) Nasib baik for the first event we only rent the banquet chairs, then only we know tak muat. Kalau beli 200 naya je mana nak letak semua kerusi lebih tu..dan RM RM nya...

(My idea on the red , my husband on black)

Decor adalah idea saya@kami berdua. Ulangan. Kami. Tiada Interior Decorator. Kitorg yang pilih kaler kapet, warna cat, nak susun bilik2 , sampaila ke tombol sink beli sendiri (ceh ceh..padehal sbb takde bajet)

In case u guys have been wondering ape bende2 rectangle merah dan hitam kat dinding tu, itu adalah Acoustic Panel. Fungsinya untuk menyerap bunyi2 an supaya tak mengganggu ketenteraman awam. In a way, die berfungsi macam decor jugak. Harga jangan tanya. Mampu mensupply shampoo Rejoice ku selama 30 tahun. Suke je nak exaggerate,padehal syampu rejoice baru RM 13.90 sebotol dan 5 bulan baru habis sebotol.

'DRUMS AND PERCUSSION WORKSHOP'

The first event is 'Drums & Percussion Workshop' , which was held on 6 & 7 Feb 2010. Well, obviously u can tell whose idea it is. Since he knows a lot of people on the line, easier for us to get all the top names in the Drums and Percussion industry.

Crew tolong pasang sarung kerusi.

We are proud to welcome TKSU of Jabatan Kebudayaan and Kesenian Negara, Dato' Mohammed b Mohd Daud, to come and officiate the Studios. We are so proud sangat2 yang tak sangka dia nak datang tempat kami yang tak seberapa ni.

In his speech, he actually praised our effort in initiating the place and the event. Kembang pungkuk sat, bila dia sebut '..saya puji usaha En Azri dan Isteri..' ceh ceh.. (tiba2 dah bayangkan laki aku jadi Dato') wah wah melayang jauh sangat ni..(ernie, u know what i mean, cita2 kita utk beli G..)

Ok, berbalik ke alam nyata. Dalam isi speech dia juga dia cakap actually kerajaan memang akan bantu pihak2 swasta macam kitorg ni yang nak venture into education, especially kebudayaan sebab kat Malaysia ni sangat kurang orang yang betul2 bergiat serius dalam bidang ni. Dan sebagainya (nak dipendekkan cite)

He's signing the plaque

Dato' Mokhzani, Dato' Mohammed & The Director


After Dato' officiates our Studios, we present the token of appreciation and the workshop started.

One of the session , 'Brazilian Percussion'

One of the hot session, Pergendangan Melayu by Kamrul Husin. Byk sgt soalan dari peserta sampai dragging gile. Lunch patut kul 1, jadi 2.30pm (dalam hati, hoi korang ni tak lapa ke? )

The attendees from MBPJ, Johor and Pahang and the crews

As a conclusion, beside the Dato' Mohammed's attendance, our target was actually not achieved. Many participants made last minute cancellation. As a businesswoman, I always anticipate the worst. So, we kinda ok with that but will surely do a different strategy next time. But the most important is, we had fun and i bet the participants yang sporting2 itu pun juga :)

Genting Highland in its coldest day!

My first time experienced Genting Highland at approximately 10 degrees! (i guess, sbb sejuk sgt!)

Lama dah ni, baru nak update blog.

Last New Year Eve , we went on a family trip to Genting Highland as soon as I heard that Genting tgh sejuk giler skang ni..kepingin pegi tpt sejuk , told the idea to my mom, and she straight away booked a room for us all.

Kabus memang takyah cakap, kul 12 macam malam je. Nothing else tpt nak masuk except the theme park la kan..lagipun saja bawak adik2 jalan..and also kitorg pun nak take a break jap

Here are some photos;

good exercise la this ride


Sekali pandang macam kat London je

Kabus and its really cold

muke aku macam org mengandung

comel..my parents naik merry go round

My first attempt on Hot Air Balloon!

I went to the Media Launch of My Balloon Fiesta , which will be held on 18th - 22nd March 2010. This is the 2nd Putrajaya International Hot Air Balloon Festival. And after the media launch, the balloons are all open for the ride!

During the launch

Muke cuak sbb gayat seh, terasa macam aku berat sgt balloon ni boleh jatuh anytime.
(Apahal muke laki aku rileks je)


Selain gayat, adalah sangat panas juga kepala ku, sbb kat atas kepala mmg die punye gas dan api yang membolehkan die terbang. lps tu bising plak tu sbb die kene pump the gas most of the time. Pakcik 'driver' tu cakap, kalau die tak constantly pump, balloon ni boleh jatuh merudum ke bawah. Takut tak?

I read Richard Branson's book of 'Screw it Let's Do It', die ada banyak attempt around the world naik Hot Air Balloon, yang berani mati punya. I wonder how he can stand duduk dalam bakul tu berbulan2 lamanya..dengan angin yang tak menentu..He's a truly risk taker person!


This is the only photo of me on the balloon coz nak pegang kamera pun gayat. Tapi my husband took photo muke penuh, tak nampak pun enviroment atas langit. ceh!

Time ni dah berani dah


It's a great experience altho I didn't fly too high..dekat2 situ je..This event is an international event, which they will have at least 22 balloons from all over the world. At least 100,000 people were there last year and only Tamil Neesan paper did not put the news out on the paper. Yang lain semua in! Come and check out the event coz this year will be even better than last year.
