Going international..

Another top story on Siti's upcoming solo concert scheduled on 1st April 2005 (April Fool?) at Royal Albert Hall, London catched my attention during breakfast. I've checked RAH for her concert but not yet listed online. I wonder how much money her sponsors paid for hiring the hall. Must be a fortune. I'm not her fan, but I do enjoy her songs and she sings beautifully.. not up to my favorite singer, Celine Dion or Mariah Carrey but she's Malaysian.. and opportunity to sing at RAH is invaluable to some extent. After Allahyarham Sudirman (the true singer ever born after Allahyarham Tan Sri P.Ramlee), Sheila Majid and very few Asian singers, it is her chance to expose herself to international level.. but honestly, I think her helpers/coordinators or whatever people around her called themselves, must make sure that Siti can communicate well with the audience (including her pronunciation etc.. ) and project good image for Malaysia during her course. We do not want foreign media to keep on laughing and misintepreting Malaysians' thoughts anymore.

Enough on that.. Friday is always a good day to look for. My stomach is full with Hari Raya delicacies, fruits and cookies. I fried some 'keropok' last night for the jamuan.. and also brought along 'kerepek pisang' for them to eat.. at least, I got the chips finished, so, tak membazir lah. Next week, I won't be around to join the company Jamuan Aidilfitri on Friday. I've asked a meeting to be rescheduled and also have planned what to buy during my so-called vacation. I think I'm having End-of-the-Year Syndrome, which is lethal and highly infectious.. hehehe..

Side note: I've never been inside RAH.. the tickets are too expensive. Perhaps after I earn 5 figures income, I'll go there for a concert or two.
