What to wear? What to hear?

So as the days slowly count down to this great Sabahan event...

We start to hear the fear & cries of many women:

WHAT SHOULD I WEAR FOR THE EVENT!!!??? XD

Ok, to finally clear all the confusion... yes the rumor is true... guys must wear tux & girls must wear bikinis... ... ... (Anvil drops form the sky) *pong!!!* ... Ouch! ... ok ok... >.<"

Just wear casual! Wear something comfortable... & wear something decent. (Remember, you are entering a hotel... jan lah pakai singlet & spender sajak... XD)

*** *** *** *** *** *** ***

Ok that being settled. We would also like to let you guys know, that we got 2 Sabahan artist to help us get into the mood & help us chill while we mingle with other bloggers.

Featuring:

Richado Tawith
(known more popularly as Ricardo)

A veteran singer who wrote the song called Lambang Cinta feat Yohana which apparently at 1 point in time actually beat Datuk Siti Norhaliza's rank in the Hitz Sabah FM. Wow.. betul ke nih?

Terry Peter

A local R&B/POP singer composer. Terry is also currently the no 1 artist on sabah vfm english local hits with his song - "come dance like me".

*** *** *** *** *** *** ***

Now honest to god, I actually never heard of them before... but what we are promised is that they will provide us with a night of easy listening song (acousitic music as I was told) while we wine, dine & make marry.

Jangan harap ada ROCK lah... ini Sabah Bloggers Gathering bah, bukan "Konsert Sabah Rock"! XD




So just sit back, relax, enjoy the music... but most importantly... go around & make some friends. :D

Some brief updates & the SBG in 4 days time...

• So a new attendance list has been upgraded on the bottom right of the side bar! Do check & see if your name is there! :D
• For the record: Performers, organisers & sponsors are not included in the "attendance" list. this was done on purpose to allow more space! But you guys are still FREE to enter bah! Jan takut! XD
• Ok, I have copied from this post & pasted it back at my 81lions blog before... So this time! Im goin to paste what I wrote in that blog to here (of course related to the SBG event lah)! XD

tick tock tick tock...

SBG is 3 more days from now... & to tell you the truth (being 1 of the SBG organ-izing member)



We are all actually kinda nervous about the whole thing... :p





Seeing how last years "KK Bloggers Gathering" turn out to be a success, this year we wanted to aim for something bigger: More Bloggers, More Exposure & MORE FUN!!!





Organising this event wasnt easy... & we ran into alot of complications like venue, attendance, sponsorship, designs & etc etc. One important factor we made note over & over again is that we are running a Bloggers Gathering, so the event should be relaxing & NOT TOO GRAND like the granny awar... I mean grammy awards.

I dont deny that being in the committee means we get to meet alot of cool people & work with alot of sponsors around KK.

But honestly, with the SBG event being so near... it felt abit like Im being thrown back into time & taking my SPM exams again... ... ...

We know we cant please everyone (any evil image popping up? kof kof) but I just hope that people dont take us for granted & realise that organising this event wasnt easy.

I mean look what this event has done to me?





kekeke... pictures are credit to Jacq. XD

BEAT THE SABAH TIME!!!

• Dear readers, refering to the previous post: Little Teaser 1: Win a "Shot"!. We would like to apologize that there was a mixed up between the camera model. Instead of a Powershot- a590, it's actually a Powershot a560. Itu "6" kena terbalik jadi "9" pulak! It's still a good prize & for more info, you guys can check here! Harap maaf, harap maklum & harap harap sya yang menang... kekeke...

(Aiseh~ senang senang sajak sponsor trus, dapat appear dalam blog advertising. so who else want to sponsor SBG? Come on~~~~)

Louis Pang is coming man!!!

Louis Pang, an international wedding photographer, a devoted Christian, a wise guru, a real cool guy & a Sabahan blogger, has confirmed his attendance to the Sabah Bloggers Gathering (SBG)!!!




Many Bloggers have come to understand that "pictures speak a thousand words" & what better way in doin so then using photographs?





Although Blogging doesnt always equate to it's authors being photographers, but this phenomena does some how make up atleast a certain percentage among Sabahan Bloggers. Now "photo blogs" are sprouting rampantly; being partly a portfolio space & an artist's diary. Louis Pang's blog is the best among them all.





In fact, during our SBG night, this great photographer would take a minute or two & share with us his experience of how blogging plays a role in his life! :D

(I love his new avatar picture from his blog. Makes him look damn cool!)

Yeah!!! So we got a confirmation that Louis "The MAN" Pang is coming!!! XD
